Gamora glanced at Nebula, who hesitated to speak, sighed, nodded, and said in a deep voice, "He killed my parents, slaughtered my race, should I not hate him?"
The last sentence was directed at Nebula.
Nebula frown with displeasure but did not argue.
"Do you think it's just me? Do you remember your own parents? You don't, because you have no memory. Have you never questioned that?"
Gamora continued, her voice rising with emotion.
Since she had started, she decided to reveal everything.
She looked at Nebula, observing the complex changes in her face, seeing her as the sister she believed her to be: "My people, my compatriots were slaughtered, my parents were killed, I was trained, and what about you?"
"Do you really believe you are an orphan who was adopted by him?"
"He did the same thing to you as he did to me."
"He has no feelings, he is naturally a butcher, cruel and ruthless, devoid of humanity. He treats us as daughters, but we are just tools and killers he cultivated."
Thanos, in his quest to create the ultimate killing machine, forced Gamora and Nebula to fight each other daily. Each loss resulted in the loser having part of their body replaced with machinery. Nebula, unfortunately, never won.
Because of this, Nebula hated Gamora. Her naturally sensitive personality, combined with Gamora's excellence, made it seem like Thanos favored Gamora.
She was unwilling to accept this, but instead of directing her anger at Thanos, she marked Gamora as the object of her hatred.
"No, it can't be." Nebula shook her head in disbelief.
She asked Gamora, "Why did you never consider my feelings? All you wanted was to win, and all I wanted was a sister."
For the first time, Nebula revealed her true feelings.
In a sense, Nebula did not really hate Gamora, because she knew her pain was not brought by Gamora. Both of them grew up under the madness of Thanos, and to survive, Gamora had to defeat her repeatedly.
These truths, buried under repeated suffering and Thanos's constant manipulation, were forgotten, leaving only hatred for Gamora.
Gamora's expression was pained: "Do you think I wanted this? I always saw you as my sister, but the first time I beat you, he made me watch as your right hand was replaced with machinery. That feeling was unforgettable."
"I saw his cruel expression and realized that we never received his love."
"Nebula, give up those fantasies. I endured humiliation to one day avenge and kill him, to regain our freedom."
Gamora spoke with deep emotion.
Deep down, she always saw Nebula as her sister. Watching Nebula being transformed piece by piece only deepened her hatred for Thanos.
She had wanted to lose to Nebula countless times but knew Thanos would see through it.
Thanos despised betrayal and deceit above all.
Determined to mold her into a killing machine, when Gamora tried losing to Nebula, the result was even more brutal. The cruel transformation nearly killed Nebula.
From that moment, Gamora knew the only way to free them both was to kill Thanos.
Nebula felt confused and lost, unwilling to believe it all. Gamora's words made her past hatred seem like a joke, as if she were a puppet manipulated by Thanos.
She had believed Gamora's victories were to prove herself to Thanos.
But now, the truth was revealed.
Her real enemy was not Gamora but Thanos, whom she had once seen as a god.
Seeing Gamora's tears, Nebula's lips moved, but she finally closed her eyes.
As a bystander, Bella felt some sympathy for the unavoidable conflict between the sisters.
She increasingly felt that Thanos deserved to die.
Earth never lacked scum and villains, but none had Thanos's power and intelligence.
This made Thanos even more detestable.
Thinking of this, Bella couldn't help but increase her magic output, accelerating the ship. She contemplated, the next time she saw Thanos, she would skip the training and summon the Angel directly, shooting that purple-skinned villain dead with one arrow.
Thanos, you truly deserve to die.
Not to mention Bella's determination to kill Thanos.
Thanos's pursuit was noticed by major forces in the universe.
After all, the scene of six light-speed vessels traveling across various galaxies was alarming. Especially for Thanos, a notorious warlord in the universe, now looking disheveled instead of his usual arrogance.
The identities of those pursuing him were significant too. While Wanda, Pietro, and Bella were unrecognized, Thor and Loki were equally notorious.
From Asgard.
Asgardians were still seen as crazy.
Seeing Asgardians chasing Thanos, and even having a big fight, Thanos's armor shattered, and his fleet gone, was shocking.
Thanos, Thor, and Pietro were all flying through space at light speed, which was surprising enough. But the key point was Thanos being pursued.
When witnesses spread this news, it quickly shook the entire universe. The universe is vast, with many star systems thousands of light-years apart. Light-speed travel takes thousands of years.
However, technologies like space jumps and interstellar frequency communication shortened these distances.
Similar to Earth becoming a global village through technology.
The news caused a sensation, leading many to discuss Thanos's humiliating pursuit by Asgardians and three unknown individuals.
Especially those who had grudges against Thanos, whose people were slaughtered, who wandered the stars, wanting revenge but powerless, were overjoyed.
