Yondu cut the call after he understood what he needed to stop the mouth of John opening, he didn't want to lose his respect and dignity in the high table. He spread the information about the location of Gamora and others and and directly flew to Xandar to insert himself in the upcoming confrontation. His crew didn't know his plans as he didn't tell them.
He was pretty sure there would be huge opposition if they came to know his plans. Peter on the other hand wanted to know about Ego as he felt this new guy had definitely connections with him as Yondu asked him to be away from John after he guessed that John was working for Ego.
John as usual refused to tell about Ego. He just said that he would come to know when the time was right. Gamora who wasn't with the call was talking with Rocket and asked about Groot and what Rocket said about Groot almost made her fall down.
"You mean to say that Groot's ring gives him power to roam in the universe and be a policeman? There are others like him too?" Gamora asked.
"Yes. The ring chooses their new owner according to the character of a person from the universe. My girlfriend, my friend who trained who trained Groot are also green lanterns." John said as he heard Gamora getting surprised by Rocket's question.
"Then why haven't I heard of them before? I have never seen them when I roamed the universe." Gamora asked with skeptical tone.
"Because they don't belong to this universe..." John then proceeded to say the same old lengthy lie. Now everybody were amazed by this, even Rocket, as he didn't know the whole story about the Guardians.
"You really weren't lying when you said you guided the Guardians here." Rocket asked.
"I really meant that Rocket. The power stone will be handed over to them for safekeeping as that would be the best security for it." John said.
Now everybody got interested about the Guardians and asked him about their history. John spoke vaguely about it with them as he too had less idea. If it was the Guardians of the comics it would have been more easier but the Guardians of Oa in this universe aren't so powerful like in the comics.
John wondered if he could ever get the template from the comics version, because that would help him take out the actual big guns of DC. As they were talking Lex came back from his work.
"Lex tell Nova Prime that Ronan might arrive soon. Tell her to be ready with security purposes. I would deal with Ronan myself." John said to Lex.
"Yes." Lex said as he went to inform Irani.
"You all need to get rest and prepare yourself in the upcoming war. Rocket you can make weapons but not very powerful ones as I don't want my Dark Aster to have scratches."
"You really want to take away that spaceship?" Rocket asked.
"Of course. Why buy a new one when Ronan is coming to gift the spaceship himself." John said.
They all went to rest and freshen themselves as they were running around all these few days. Now they could rest in peace. Even though Quill still doubted John as Yondu warned him but he knew that John needed them until Ronan arrives. So he went to have proper rest.
Nova Prime later called John about the incoming assault. John didn't give her a proper reply as he wasn't sure how Ronan would attack as he didn't have the power stone now. If Ronan was clever he would try assassinating Gamora and others instead of frontal assault.
But then again Ronan was stupid enough to do a frontal assault with such a small team in Xandar. He might have destroyed Xandar with the power stone in the actual story but that would cost him his whole crew. John just wanted to see if this guy was clever or just had a load of s**t in his head.
The Nova Prime took the advice of John seriously as she immediately called the Nova Corps to be stationed for the attack of Ronan while taking away the general audience away from the city. Since John said there might be a chance that Ronan would land in the capital she wasn't going to take any chances.
She just hoped that they would get enough time to call back the Nova corps who were stationed in different parts of the Empire. But sadly Ronan didn't give them enough time.
Ronan did come the next day with his fleet and when Dark Aster arrived with it's fleet it surprised John too as now there was an additional fleet. The fleet which should never have appeared in Xandar at all. At least not in the next few years.
The fleet that belonged to Thanos. John after seeing this had a smile in his face as Thanos just gave him a bigger stage to showcase his power.

Ronan did come to attack Xandar near the location where Gamora was located as he got the information from the Ravagers. At first he didn't believe the information but the got to know that it was the from the same crew that Peter Quill betrayed. He immediately summoned Nebula and Proxima to attack.
They knew they had to carry out the attack fast they only had three fleet with them. This wasn't enough to destroy the capital city of Xandar which by itself represented a huge Empire. Even though Ronan looked down on them but he wasn't stupid enough to believe that he could overthrow Nova Empire with just his measly fleet.
As Dark Aster arrived near Xandar, John was informed about the extra two spaceships that appeared. He asked Victor
"Victor, did Thanos come with the fleet?"
"No. Only a member of the black order." Victor said as he was able to get information from the tracker he placed on many of the soldiers he had met before in Kyln.
"A member of the Black order? Who?" Gamora asked as she was interested in knowing who her father sent.
"Proxima Midnight." Victor replied. John was happy that a member of the black order came and that too the weakest of them. He felt even Nebula was more powerful than her.
"Alright. Rocket you need to take an attack ship from FOS and attack all the small spaceships that come out of Dark Aster. Groot you are green lantern. Fly around and kill everybody that seems like an enemy. Peter you can assist Rocket. Flash you handle Proxima. She will be easy for you. Don't kill her though. Just injure her enough. Drax you can accompany Flash. Victor, Sasuke and Gamora. Come with me." John commanded everybody.
After all the things that had happened everybody considered him as the leader as he knew about the future, so it was better for someone to take control who could see time.
"Wait? Do you know how to fight?" Rocket asked.
"Of course I know." John said as he transformed himself. He still wanted to use Minato's power. Firstly because he didn't want to destroy the Dark Aster as he needed them, the Phoenix flame will just melt the surrounding which will be problematic to him and he didn't want Thanos to later recognize him with that flame.
And secondly he didn't want to expose his face to Thanos yet because he had a plan of communicating him through Proxima. He wanted to have a proper talk with Thanos as he wanted to make sure some of his guesses.
Everybody was surprised by the sudden change of John as now he looked totally different. He had blonde spiky hair. He wore a white overcoat with a different language written on the back. He looked more handsome now than before.
Sasuke who was nearby didn't react to it as John had been using Sasuke for his errands mostly and kind of brain controlled him. John felt bad about it but he was too lazy to deal with somethings and Sasuke was the best guy to handle them.
"What is this? Is this your actual face?" Rocket asked.
"No this is one of my powers. Just guiding different world people aren't my only powers." John said. The Nova Prime called him and said they had sent the Nova Corps to engage them. John said that he would also leave and infiltrate Dark Aster.
All went to FOS while Groot flew away to engage the small ships. John and others rode different attack ships. Rocket had already learnt of how to pilot them from before. Peter was more surprised by seeing such advanced ships. He thought of using Milano but after seeing the new attack ships he changed the minds.
John, Gamora, Sasuke, Victor and Flash entered an attack ship and flew away while Rocket and Peter took the other one. As they were in the air, Dark Aster had already entered the atmosphere while the other two drop ships sent by Thanos had already landed on Xandar releasing Outriders. The same aliens whom Thanos used during Infinity war.
The Nova Corps had already dispatched soldiers to stop them. But John on the screen was able to see a new group of people helping the Nova Corps. John smiled at seeing the new people.
The crew of Yondu.
"He really cares for his adopted son." John murmured.
The attack ship flew close to Dark Aster and started shooting the small ships that came out of Dark Aster. It was easy for Victor as he had almost a 360 degree view in his mind with the help of the attack ship and the ships of the Nova Legion also helped them as they were ordered to help John as he would be the main force in this assault..
John had already informed of his plan to the Nova Prime to which she readily agreed. She had seen what Victor could do and she hoped that this time John would destroy Ronan.
