Xandar.
The only person who ca to see the Guardians off was Rhomann Dey, who had a good relationship with them. Although the Nova Corps leaders knew that the Power Stone was not sothing they could protect safely, they still had so grudges against Sebastian. He had broken into the core area where the Power Stone was stored. He had directly taken it away. This also caused so estrangent towards the Guardians.
With Rhomann's farewell, the Guardians boarded their spaceship. They quickly left Xandar. They arrived in space outside Xandar's orbit.
On the spaceship, the atmosphere was very silent and tense. Peter looked at Gamora. He wanted to say sothing many tis, but he did not. He really wanted to know what Gamora and Sebastian had talked about before. But it was obvious that Gamora did not want to talk about it. Peter did not want to keep asking her about it.
At this mont, Gamora was well aware of Peter's thoughts. But she could not tell anyone about the Soul Stone's location. It was not that she did not trust Peter and the others. But she knew that for Thanos, a person's mories were not impenetrable. Many things resided in their minds. Even if they did not speak, Thanos had many ways to learn what he wanted from them. She did not dare take the risk.
Sighing, Gamora gathered her thoughts. She wanted to put these things aside for the ti being. As long as the Soul Stone remained unrevealed, the final conflict would remain averted. She could just put this matter off for now.
Boom...
The spaceship jolted violently. Gamora could clearly sense that it had stopped for so reason. Frowning slightly, Gamora looked up at Rocket and Yondu who were operating the ship. She realized that everyone on board was in an eerie state of stillness. Their faces were expressionless. Only Mantis had a slight expression. But soon, like everyone else, her expression fell to a dead silence.
Seeing this sudden change, Gamora imdiately thought of soone. She stood up. She whispered. "Supergiant, get out of their heads!"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone on the spaceship turned to look at Gamora. Their faces shared the sa mocking smile. They chorused together. "Gamora, Thanos is waiting for you."
"I will not go back with you. Give up!"
"If that is the case, then I will have to do sothing cruel."
As the voices fell, they saw everyone draw their weapons. They aid them at their own heads or vital parts. Supergiant only needed to think about it and they would commit suicide.
In so ways, Supergiant was the most formidable of the Black Order. But Sebastian possessed a near-perfect ntal defense. This made Supergiant unable to significantly interfere with Sebastian. Now, facing an enemy without Sebastian, Supergiant's formidable abilities were imdiately on display.
"Gamora, are you really willing to see them die in front of you? It is a pity that they did not have to die. But they died here because of your inaction."
Taking a deep breath, Gamora looked at Peter with a sneer on his face. A hint of attachnt showed in her eyes. Then the expression in her eyes beca firm. She whispered. "Supergiant, there is no need to say these words to provoke . If you dare to kill any of them, then I will imdiately commit suicide with them. We are partners. Dying together is not a bad thing."
Although she said this, Gamora had secretly touched the crystal stone given to her by Sebastian in her pocket. If she had to make a choice, she would rather give the Soul Stone to Sebastian!
As Gamora finished speaking, Supergiant did not speak again. Just as Gamora was about to wait for Supergiant to speak, the projection screen on the ship suddenly turned on. It showed Nebula suspended in mid-air. Her body was almost completely disassembled. It was accompanied by wisps of black flas. Nebula kept wailing in pain. This made Gamora's eyes bloodshot. She clenched her teeth.
At this mont, Thanos' voice rang out over the ship's speakers.
"Gamora, I once taught you not to take your life lightly. You have disappointed ."
Hearing this, Gamora pursed her lips. Her face sotis revealed hatred. Sotis a familiarity and longing. Taking a deep breath, Gamora spoke. "Father, it has been a long ti."
"Gamora, co back to . Or Nebula will be forced to live in this state forever.
If you return, not only will I spare your friends' lives, I will free her from this suffering. It all depends on your choice."
As Gamora hesitated, strands of black flas suddenly penetrated Nebula's body. They caused her to wail in agony again. This finally shattered Gamora's strong shell.
"Father, stop! I will return with you!"
As soon as these words fell, the dark flas within Nebula's body quickly dissipated. She passed out completely.
"Very well. Open the door to your ship. I will personally bring you back."
Gamora exhaled a breath that seed to drain all her strength. She slowly walked to the rear of the ship. She turned to cast a longing glance at her companions and loved ones. Without hesitation, Gamora activated the protective shield between the stern and the cabin. She donned her protective suit. Then she opened the ship's door.
She did not imdiately choose to use the crystal Sebastian had given her. That might have saved herself and the others. But it would have ant abandoning Nebula. Gamora planned to return to Thanos first. She would find a chance to use the crystal to summon Sebastian. Then she would escape from Thanos with Nebula and herself. As for the Soul Stone... she could just give it to him.
The stern door opened. A strong wind imdiately blew out. It caused Gamora to stumble slightly.
At this mont, a tractor beam bridge suddenly shot down from above the spaceship. It landed at the stern. Thanos appeared in the tractor beam bridge. He reached out to hold Gamora's hand. Without saying a word, the two of them walked away from the spaceship step by step along the tractor beam bridge. They finally boarded Thanos's massive spaceship which had erged from its invisible state.
At the sa ti, around the Guardians of the Galaxy's spaceship, the warships of the Black Order appeared. They had completely surrounded them without anyone knowing when.
