The Shi'ar fleet had used a stargate and stopped a few thousand miles from the Moon.
According to their reports, the Mutant girl who destroyed the previous fleet was on the Moon.
For which all the spaceships had activated their shields and were alert.

Inside the main spaceship
Emperor D'ken calmly looks at the images on the screen since the Earth and the Moon can be seen on it.
"So that's the eEarth, now I understand why both the Skrulls and the Kree want it so much. I can see that it's a planet full of resources" a thoughtful D'ken murmured as he looked at the images.
"Yes my lord, this place can be considered a strategic point for any of the powers in space and we could use this opportunity to have it for ourselves" Kallark added upon hearing his emperor's words.
"Forget it. If we do that, the Skrulls and the Kree won't sit still" D'ken replied nonchalantly.
Kallark nods in agreement. He knows it well, currently their relationship with the Kree is not very good and they would do everything to take Earth from them, and if the Skrull join the fight, there will be many losses.
"Stay focused Kallark, although the planet Earth is technologically backward, it has powerful beings that protect it" D'ken said to his imperial guard.
"Sir, we have detected signs of life that are located on the Moon" one of his men informed him.
Hearing his subordinate's words, a small smile form on D'ken's face.
He knows that it is his enemies who are on the Moon, awaiting his arrival.
"Get ready, when I give the order, start the attack" D'ken ordered his subordinate, who only nodded his head and withdrew to carry out his order.
Kallark says nothing, he knows how determined his emperor is and how cruel he can be.
So he just wait to start the attack.
"Sir, weapons primed and ready" one of his men said.
"Open fire" D'ken said coldly.

The next instant, a large amount of energy beams were shot towards the Blue Area of the Moon where the base created by Alex's group was located.
Est was ready, she quickly created a shield that blocked all attacks from the Shi'ar fleet.
Polaris and Magneto looked at the large number of spaceships indifferently.
They quickly unleashed their full powers.
When the two work together, their powers reach extraordinary levels.
That was because they both decided to learn and research more uses on their powers.
Which currently allowed them to move a warship as if they were lifting a metal marble.
The Sentinels took flight and headed towards the Shi'ar fleet to wreak havoc.
The Shi'ar spaceships became aware of the Sentinels and began to attack them.
But moments later, they realized that they were losing control of their spaceships and began to collide with each other causing great damage and explosions.
The Sentinels took advantage of that opportunity, boarded some of the spaceships and began destroying the engines causing them to crash into the Blue Area of the Moon.
The other remaining spaceships, controlled by Polaris and Magneto, met the same fate and crashed.
Lilandra was observing the whole process accompanied by Alex.
She was amazed at how, in just a few moments, a Shi'ar Imperial fleet was easily shot down.
The scariest thing about the situation was that she knew Alex's group was holding back, for which she was grateful.
Since she knew that it was for her that they did not initiate a massacre.
After all, Alex could send in Est and the Phoenix Force and get this over with quickly.
As she was deep in thought, she realized that Alex prepared to end this and with his group headed to the place where the Shi'ar spaceships had crashed.
She did not hesitate and quickly followed them.

D'ken's face is grim as he steps out of his no longer usable spaceship, accompanied by his soldiers and imperial guard led by Kallark.
"How many casualties are there?" D'ken asked.
"Ten percent of our men are down sir, the spaceships are unusable and we can't call in reinforcements" one of his men answered in a bit of a panic.
Just as D'ken was about to speak, he hears Kallark say:
"My lord, they are coming"
Emperor D'ken quickly ordered them to gather the other soldiers to prepare and meet their enemies.
His soldiers wasted no time and regrouped.
Just a few minutes after regrouping, they felt a powerful pressure engulfing them all.
In front of them their enemies arrived.
But D'ken's army concentrated on two people, they were Est and the Phoenix Force that caused the pressure they felt.
But the soldiers did not notice the change in expression of their Emperor and their leader of the Imperial Guard upon seeing the latter.
Since the two of them recognize that energy from the records of their empire, it is the Phoenix Force, which they have a lot of hatred for.
D'ken looks furiously at his sister and says:
"Traitor, you really joined that monstrosity to face me"
Hearing her brother's words, Lilandra angrily says:
"You speak of monstrosity, but you are worse. I guess your men don't know that you want to use the M'kraan Crystal to gain unlimited power without caring if you destroy our reality"
The soldiers who heard that are shocked and look at their emperor with doubt.
D'ken doesn't notice the look of his men and consumed with anger, he says:
"They are my servants and their lives are in my hands, so it is natural that they sacrifice themselves to fulfill my goals"
Alex's group looks at him like he's an idiot upon hearing his words.
