Kapitel 253: Chapter: 253
*Inhale—exhale—Inhale!*
On the spaceship, Star-Lord and Gamora, who had regained oxygen, greedily breathed the air inside the cabin.
"What happened, Quill?" Awakened Gamora looked puzzled at Star-Lord face to face, who was embracing her.
"I saw you out there, and I don't know what came over me, but I couldn't just stand by and watch you die. I sensed something deep inside, something you might call heroism. Not to boast..."
Seeing Gamora's disapproving look, Star-Lord quickly stopped explaining.
The two of them maintained this ambiguous posture, unknowingly feeding off each other's emotions.
Completely unaware, underneath them, Baymax had been pressed as a makeshift mattress for quite some time.
Relieved to see that both of them were unharmed, Gamora took a deep breath and then asked, "What about the Cosmic orb?"
"Um... they managed to steal it," Star-Lord awkwardly replied.
"What did you say?" Gamora exclaimed in disbelief.
However, just as she was about to continue questioning, a noisy sound of footsteps suddenly approached from the side.
"Peter, welcome back."
It was Yondu, the leader of the Ravagers, and his crew who came to greet them.
Looking at the black muzzles of the guns pointed at them, Gamora and Star-Lord immediately stopped their affectionate gestures and stood up from Baymax's body.
As it turned out, right after they were rescued by Baymax, the Ravagers' ship had also arrived, and they used a tractor beam to pull them aboard.
Carrying Star-Lord and Gamora, Baymax had no way to resist the powerful force of the tractor beam and was pulled in as well.
Seeing the strange smile on Yondu's face, Star-Lord realized that his good days were probably over.
...
*Cough—cough!*
On the other side, Drax, who had been left on Knowhere, finally regained consciousness.
"I am Groot." Seeing the other wake up, Groot hurriedly went forward to help him sit up.
Boom—boom—!
At the same time, Rocket, who had seen Star-Lord, Gamora, and Baymax being taken away by Yondu, also returned to Knowhere.
"You idiots, all of you!" Rocket cursed in anger and helplessness.
He had to vent his frustration this way after seeing that Star-Lord had risked his life to rescue Gamora only to be captured by Yondu in the end.
"It's all because of you trying to show off, wanting to take on an entire army by yourself. Otherwise, how could we end up in this mess?"
As he got off the ship and saw the weakened Drax lying on the ground, Rocket became even angrier and directed all his fury at him.
Drax, who had narrowly escaped death, also regained his senses at this moment. Faced with Rocket's reprimands, he appeared deeply remorseful.
"You're right, I was too impulsive. My inner hatred blinded me. My fierceness and anger were just a way to hide the pain of losing my family..."
"[Oh, I'm so pitiful. My wife and daughter were killed.]" Rocket imitated Drax's very resentful tone of voice and said sarcastically.
"What does this have to do with me? We've all experienced the pain of losing loved ones, but you shouldn't drag others along to their deaths!
Now, Ronan has the Cosmic orb, and our only chance is to escape to the edge of the universe as fast as possible.
Maybe, just maybe, after we manage to live through our lives, that lunatic Ronan will come to his senses over there.
Let's go, Groot."
"I am Groot" said the tree-like Groot, standing up straight to address Rocket.
"What? You say you want to save them? With just the three of us, how can we rescue them?"
"I am Groot!"
"I know they are our only friends, but they are trapped in prison, guarded by heavily armed mercenaries. It's impossible to save them!"
"I'll go with you." Drax stood up from the ground and put his hand on Groot's shoulder.
"Alright, today I will go crazy with you lunatics!"
...
"You betrayed me?"
Bang!
"And you stole my money!"
Bang!
On the Ravagers' ship, Star-Lord, who was confined, was enduring Yondu's questioning and beating.
"Stop it, let him go!" Gamora, also bound nearby, looked at Star-Lord being tortured, shouting desperately in pain.
Only Baymax, equipped with holographic lenses, clearly understood that Yondu's seemingly ferocious punches did not actually inflict substantial harm on Star-Lord.
In other words, while Star-Lord was in pain, Yondu's vicious performance was merely a show for everyone.
Baymax couldn't comprehend why Yondu was doing this, but since their captain was unharmed, it didn't consider exposing the truth.
"Alright, boy. It's time for you to face the ultimate punishment of a traitor.
In front of my crew, I must make an example of you for betraying me!"
Yondu turned away, preparing to whistle and seemingly control his arrow to end Star-Lord's life.
"Wait, if you kill me now, you'll say goodbye to the biggest deal you've ever had."
Hearing Star-Lord's words, others might not have noticed, but Baymax clearly saw Yondu secretly exhale a breath of relief.
He needed a way out that would allow Star-Lord to live and also provide him with a convincing reason to convince his crew.
Yondu turned back again, facing Star-Lord once more. "The Infinity Stone? I hope your bargaining chip is more than just that.
Because no one dares to steal from Ronan. You better come up with a compelling reason."
Star-Lord looked at the arrow pressed against his throat and cautiously swallowed his saliva. "Because we have a winning card."
"Oh, how so?"
"Gamora—she knows everything about Ronan, his fleet, his armies, and his weaknesses.
So, I have a proposal: let's team up again, just like old times, and face the past together."
Yondu didn't respond immediately; he discreetly observed his crew's reactions. Seeing their strong interest in the proposal, he whistled and called back his arrow.
"Hahaha, you've got guts, kid. It's precisely because of this that I took you in."
Yondu used laughter to mask his emotions and hugged Star-Lord tightly.
Watching this scene, Baymax had a feeling that Yondu's image vaguely resembled that of its Master's Dad, Tony Stark, whom he used to see frequently.
"Is this [father's awkwardness] what the master often says?"
Baymax thought uncertainty.
Boom!
Just as everyone relaxed, the ship was attacked, causing the atmosphere to tense up again...
