The Emperor can take Lightsaber from Vader’s hand and reverse Vader’s traditional technique by Force choking him. “You were the Chosen One, were you not,” Palpatine taunts. “Destined to bring balance to the Force! But who chooses the Chosen One? And why could they not choose another? You are but a tool, Lord Vader… which can be discarded when it no longer functions.”
According to the event in Star Wars Darth Vader, it seems Palpatine has misunderstood what it means to hold the power of the chosen one. He feels that his greatness in force lies in the fact that how powerful he is, that’s why he tries to torture Vader to prove that he is more powerful than the Chosen one. In the end, though, Anakin’s destiny as the Chosen One was not fulfilled through his power, but through his actions, when he chose to betray his Master out of love for his son.
