Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Jedi apprentice Obi-Wan are sent there by the Jedi Council as part of a mission to officiate the dispute and reach a settlement with the Federation leaders. When they reach the Federation's ship on Naboo, however, they find out that the Federation is not interested in negotiations and has allied with the Sith Lord, who plans to invade Naboo and take control of the galaxy by killing all Jedi. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon are attacked by Federation droids, but manage to escape. They head to Theed, the capital of Naboo, to warn the inhabitants of Naboo about the imminent attack.
During their journey to the city, the two Jedi cross the Naboo swamps and are assaulted by more troops sent by the Federation. After delivering the warning, they travel to the planet Coruscant to talk with the Jedi Council. They are attacked by more Federation troops after arriving, but the two Jedi are able to defeat them. Jedi Master Yoda instructs Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon to return to Naboo and help Queen Amidala and the Naboo inhabitants defeat the Federation. Upon reaching Theed, the Jedi set out to liberate the city, now overrun by the Federation. They are able to infiltrate the city by going through a secret entrance to the ancient catacombs, but are once again forced to battle enemy droids on their way.
Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon discover that the Queen has fallen into the hands of the Federation. Before heading to the Queen's palace to initiate an attack, they free captured citizens on the streets of Theed. The Jedi infiltrate the palace and manage to free the Queen. Meanwhile, Obi-Wan's young friend Anakin Skywalker commandeers a vacant starfighter and is able to destroy the Federation droid control ship in space, causing the entire droid army to deactivate. Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, meanwhile, encounter the Sith Lord's apprentice, Darth Maul. Qui-Gon is mortally wounded in the battle, but Obi-Wan manages to kill the Sith apprentice. As a result, Obi-Wan's quest to become a Jedi Knight is completed.
