As soon as the Milano's hatch closed, Rocket scurried to the control panel, his claws raking agitatedly through the fur on his head: "Damn it! Why did that white-haired kid let us go? It makes no sense at all!"
Star-Lord flicked the remaining golden chain fragments from his wrist and shrugged nonchalantly: "Why think so much? The important thing is—" He suddenly broke into his signature roguish grin, "Not only are we alive, but we also made five million for free!"
Groot shouted: "I am Groot!" (Translation: Alive! And with money!)
Drax rubbed the new bruise on his chin, a serious expression on his face: "He must have been impressed by my valor."
"Bullshit!" Rocket nearly jumped off the control panel, "You couldn't even take one punch from that bald guy!"
Star-Lord suddenly snapped his fingers and rushed to the control panel in three strides: "Guys! This isn't the time to discuss this!" His fingers flew across the panel, "It's time to celebrate our narrow escape from death!"
As the play button was pressed, the cheerful melody of "Mr. Blue Sky" instantly filled the cabin. Star-Lord grabbed an energy battery as a microphone and started swaying to the rhythm: "Mr. Sun ~ The sky is so blue today ~"
"Turn off that damn noise!" Rocket shrieked, covering his ears, "We need to—"
Before he could finish, Drax suddenly picked up the little raccoon and started spinning around to the music. Rocket's four paws flailed wildly in the air: "Put me down! You muscle-brained idiot!"
Groot ran over to Gamora, dancing excitedly, but saw that Gamora looked preoccupied.
"I am Groot?" (Translation: What's wrong with you?)
Inside the cabin, the cheerful melody of "Mr. Blue Sky" still echoed, but Gamora's expression suddenly made the music seem out of place. She gently shook her head in response to Groot's concern: "I'm fine." Her voice was so soft it was almost swallowed by the music.
The music still played cheerfully, but the atmosphere in the cabin solidified, and everyone turned to Gamora—except for Drax, who was still obliviously swaying his body until he noticed his companions had stopped moving.
"Why aren't we dancing?" He scratched his bald head in confusion.
Rocket skillfully wriggled free from Drax's embrace, performing a backflip to land on the control panel: "Oh! I get it!" His sharp voice cut through the music, "You're thinking about what that white-haired kid said! Thinking of using his hand to get rid of Thanos?"
The music abruptly stopped. Gamora's green fingers gripped the hilt of her sword tightly, her knuckles white. Before her eyes flashed Chen Tian's terrifying power, shattering half of the Land of Nihility with a single punch, then the warm palm of Thanos stroking her head—that 'Father'.
"Listen," Star-Lord said, uncharacteristically serious, "No matter what you choose—"
"I am Groot." Groot's voice was unusually firm. (Translation: We support you)
Drax finally reacted: "Count me in! Thanos must die!"
Rocket's tail unconsciously wrapped around Groot: "Alright, I'll go crazy with you guys this once, but for that white-haired kid, Thanos should be dead already."
Gamora raised her head, a slight smile on her lips, but her eyes surged with complex emotions—a longing for freedom, an obsession with revenge, and those deeply buried, ineffable feelings for 'Father'.

Inside the spaceship provided by the Nova Corps, Chen Tian leaned lazily back in a levitating seat, casually tossing and catching the Cosmic Orb, its purple energy flowing within the sphere, reflected in his eyelashes.
"Commander, is this thing really that powerful?" Kiana, like a curious cat, leaned half her body over.
Chen Tian suddenly stopped the descending Orb, and as his five fingers closed, the gravity field of the entire cabin subtly distorted. "The Power Stone inside here can easily destroy a Planet." A dangerous arc curved at the corner of his mouth, "If all six are gathered..."
"You'll become the strongest in the Universe?" Kiana's eyes shone like a supernova.
"The strongest? Not quite." Chen Tian opened his palm, and the Orb floated slowly in mid-air, "But it can erase half of the Universe with a snap of your fingers."
Kiana gasped, her eyes wide: "Then isn't this thing very dangerous?"
Chen Tian smiled and snapped his fingers, and the Cosmic Orb instantly vanished into the vortex of the summoning space: "It is dangerous, but..." He flexed his fingers, "It's useless against me. It's that certain purple sweet potato monster who's always coveting them."
He thoughtfully stroked his chin: "I wonder if Gamora will contact Thanos?" No sooner had he spoken than the spaceship's communication system suddenly lit up red.
"Commander!" Kiana pointed at the flickering screen, "It's a communication request from Miranda!"
Chen Tian raised an eyebrow: "Speak of the devil." He snapped his fingers to connect the communication, and Gamora's face immediately appeared in the holographic projection.
Gamora in the holographic projection looked tired, her lips trembling slightly as if she wanted to speak but couldn't.
Suddenly, Rocket's furry head popped out from the bottom of the screen: "Hey, white-hair! I heard you've got a lot of good stuff collected?"
Star-Lord immediately squeezed into the frame: "Thanks for letting us live, brother!" Drax's chest nearly filled the entire projection: "Let's duel!" Groot's branches extended from a gap: "I am Groot!" (Translation: Hello)
Chen Tian smiled and waved: "Haha, hello everyone." Gamora couldn't stand it anymore and pushed her companions away: "Enough!" She took a deep breath, "I've decided to contact Thanos. Where do you want to lure him?"
"How about Titan?" Chen Tian suddenly revealed a cunning smile, "Let him return to where his dream began...to make an end."
Star-Lord asked in confusion: "Where is that?" Rocket's ears suddenly perked up: "Wait! Isn't that already—"
"It's perfect for burying the past." Gamora softly interrupted, "I'll tell Thanos you're there, and that you have the Power Stone."
Chen Tian nodded, "No problem, I'll go there now."
Gamora took a deep breath, "Thanos won't go alone, you need to be careful."
"Don't worry, the grander the scene, the happier I am." Chen Tian's smile was brilliant.
"Alright, I hope you don't die." Gamora ended the communication.
After the communication screen went dark, Chen Tian stretched, "Let's go! To Titan! It's time for a big battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Saitama, who was in the corner of the spaceship, threw off the magazine covering his face, his eyes slightly bright: "A big battle?"
Bayonetta pushed open the cockpit door, loosely draped in a silk bathrobe, holding a purple wine glass in her hand: "Another battle?" She took a sip of wine, her red lips curving upward, "I hope this time there's some fun."
Kiana jumped up excitedly: "Finally, I can stretch my muscles!" She clenched her fists, her eyes gleaming with fighting spirit, "Commander, can I fight without holding back this time?"
Chen Tian snapped his fingers, and the spaceship's navigation system automatically locked onto Titan's coordinates: "Of course, but—" He narrowed his eyes, "Thanos isn't coming alone. His crazy subordinates are not easy to deal with."
Saitama scratched his head: "Oh, that purple sweet potato guy?" He stood up and flexed his wrists, "I hope he can make me a little serious."
Bayonetta chuckled: "Saitama, I doubt he can take one punch from you."
"Really?" Saitama's shoulders slumped again, "I hope not."
Chen Tian leaned back in his seat, his fingertips gently tapping the armrest: "Gamora is right, Thanos won't come alone." A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, "The Black Order, the Outriders, and even...." He paused, "There might be other helpers."
Kiana tilted her head: "What about us? Just us?"
Chen Tian's lips curved into a dangerous arc: "Enough, there's also a shut-in demon God in the summoning space."
Bayonetta put down her wine glass, her bathrobe slipping to reveal a tight suit: "Then let's not waste time." She walked towards the cockpit, "I'll set the coordinates provided by Gamora ~ for the jump ~"
Saitama stretched: "I'll sleep for a bit first, wake me when we arrive." With that, he lay back down on the sofa, the magazine once again covering his face.
Kiana excitedly waved her fists: "This time, we'll definitely show Thanos what we're capable of!"
Chen Tian looked at the gradually distorting starry sky outside the viewport, muttering to himself: "Titan.....a truly fitting place to end everything."
The spaceship engines roared, the jump drive activated, target—Thanos's homeland, Titan!
Thanos's lips curled into a slight, fatherly smile: "Well done, my daughter." His voice was gentle, as if he truly felt pleased by his daughter's achievement.
The moment the projection vanished, the smile on Thanos's face was wiped away, instantly replaced by his usual majesty and coldness. He slowly raised his gaze, looking down at Supergiant, who was kneeling on one knee below the throne.
"Supergiant," Thanos's voice was like ice, "your intelligence gathering capabilities have disappointed me greatly."
Supergiant's body trembled slightly. She lowered her head, "Master, I…"
"Gamora has already found Chen Tian," Thanos's fingers gently tapped the armrest of the throne, each tap seemingly striking Supergiant's heart, "and you, on the other hand, have found nothing."
Thanos pressed a few more buttons on the hovering throne, and a Planet projection appeared before him.
He first paused, then burst into laughter.
Thanos's laughter echoed in the empty throne hall. His thick finger gently tapped the holographic projection, and Titan's coordinates flickered with a crimson glow in the void.
"How ironic…" Thanos slowly stood up, his golden armor gleaming coldly in the dim light, "He actually dared to choose Titan as the battlefield."
Cold sweat beaded on Supergiant's forehead: "Master, this is clearly a trap. Gamora, she—"
"I know." Thanos raised a hand to interrupt her, his voice suddenly becoming unusually calm, "My daughter has finally found the weapon she believes can kill me."
Thanos slowly sat back on the throne, his fingers gently tapping the armrest, producing a dull sound. "Since Gamora thinks this Chen Tian can kill me…" His voice was low and dangerous, "Then I will personally go and meet him."
Supergiant knelt on one knee, her long purple hair falling down: "Master, I will go arrange it now." As she stood up, her robe rustled as it dragged across the cold floor.
"Assemble all armies." Thanos's voice echoed through the throne hall, "Black Order, Outriders, Chitauri fleet… leave no one behind." A murderous glint flashed in his eyes, "I want Titan to be his burial ground."
Supergiant bowed and retreated from the hall, the heavy metal doors slowly closing behind her.
Thanos, alone, gazed at the projection of Titan, his once prosperous home Planet now nothing but ruins.
His gaze gradually deepened, as if piercing through time and space, seeing the young Titan who was once full of hope.
"Chen Tian…" He suddenly sneered, his fingers tightening abruptly, and the holographic projection twisted and deformed in his palm, "Do you think I'm the only one interested in you?"

In the depths of the vast Universe, a dozen dazzling light eyes suddenly lit up, as if stars had been ignited.
Those points of light gradually revealed their massive outlines—they were Celestials, their bodies enormous, comparable to some small Planets, or even larger, their skin shimmering with a strange luster of intertwined rock and metal, each exuding a pressure capable of distorting space-time.
Arishem the Judge's Eye of Judgment burst forth with dazzling light: "That human from Earth…" His voice was like an echo from the depths of the Universe, vibrating the surrounding stardust, "has already entered our domain."
Nezar the Watcher's Star Map dial spun rapidly: "Monitoring shows that his existence will interfere with Tiamut's incubation process." The dial projected an image of the Celestial embryo awakening within Earth.
"According to the First Edict of the Celestials," Ajak the Arbitrator raised his scepter, "any existence that threatens the birth of a new member must be eliminated."
'Destroyer' Gigant's Judgment Fire on his shoulder flared up: "I propose to immediately execute the purge protocol."
Arishem the Judge surveyed the Gods: "Vote."
"Agree."
"Seconded."
"Execute."
Arak stepped out of the void: "Leave it to me." His voice swallowed all echoes like an event horizon, "The Eradicator never needs a second try."
A ray of light flashed in Arishem the Judge's Eye of Judgment, "Very good, that Earthling is heading to Titan, about to meet Thanos. This time…" His voice deepened, "I allow Thanos to be our assistant."

In the depths of the Universe, a huge living Planet was slowly moving through the Universe. This Planet was Star-Lord's father—Ego, who called himself a God.
On the Planet's surface, countless energy Veins flowed like blood vessels, converging to a magnificent palace at the core. In the center of the palace, a handsome White man—Ego's humanoid form—was gazing at the holographic projection before him.
In the projection, Thanos sat on his hovering throne, his expression cold.
"Thanos…" Ego's lips curled into a cold smile, "I never thought you would actively seek cooperation."
Thanos's voice was as majestic as ever: "A common threat has appeared in the Universe—Chen Tian."
Ego's finger tapped his chin, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes: "Oh? I think I know him, the guy who killed Ronan." He chuckled, "It seems even you find him troublesome."
Thanos did not deny it, merely stating coldly: "He has the Power Stone and is heading to Titan."
"Titan?" Ego raised an eyebrow, "Your home? How ironic."
A shadow flickered in Thanos's eyes: "He chose that place as the battlefield, clearly intending to provoke me."
Ego stood up, his hands behind his back, and slowly paced: "So, you want me to help you deal with him?"
"Cooperation." Thanos corrected, "If he doesn't die, your plan will also be hindered."
Ego paused, his eyes cold: "You investigated me?"
Thanos's voice remained calm: "The seeds you planted on Earth are to devour the life force of the entire Planet and complete your expansion." He leaned slightly forward, the pressure transmitting through the projection, "But if Chen Tian lives, do you think he will allow you to do that?"
Ego was silent for a moment, then sneered: "Alright, I can cooperate with you." He raised his hand, and a blue Planet's phantom—Earth—appeared in his palm, "But Earth is mine."
Thanos did not hesitate: "The entire Solar System can be yours."
Ego narrowed his eyes: "You are quite generous."
Thanos's voice was low: "As long as Chen Tian can be killed." He paused, then added, "If he cannot be killed, the plants you planted on Earth will eventually be uprooted by him."
Ego's expression twisted slightly, clearly hit where it hurt. He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, then revealed a sinister smile: "Fine, then let's cooperate."
He waved his hand, and Titan's coordinates appeared in the projection, "I will personally go to Titan and see how strong this Chen Tian really is."
Thanos nodded: "The Black Order and my army will arrive first, I hope you won't be late."
Ego chuckled: "Don't worry, I will make him understand what a true 'God' is."
The projection extinguished, and silence returned to the palace. Ego stood on the high platform, overlooking the flowing energy veins beneath his feet, his eyes gleaming with greed and killing intent.
"Earth… will eventually be mine." He murmured to himself, "As for Chen Tian?" He sneered, "Let him be the first stepping stone on my path of expansion."
— — — — — —
Meanwhile, outside Titan's orbit—
Chen Tian's spaceship slowly entered this desolate starfield. Outside the viewport, Titan's broken surface was clearly visible; a once glorious civilization now reduced to ruins.
"Commander, we've arrived." Kiana excitedly pressed against the viewport, "Is this Thanos's home?"
Chen Tian stood up and stretched: "Yes, a very suitable place to… bury the past."
Saitama flipped open a magazine, asking sleepily: "Have the enemies arrived?"
Bayonetta chuckled: "Don't worry, they'll be here soon."
Chen Tian walked out of the spaceship and sat on a broken staircase, looking at the few people who followed him down.
"This time… don't hold back, everyone."
