Galactic Plumbers

The sky over Sakaar remained gray.

The thick, leaden clouds that seemed to be brewing a storm were actually channels originating from different parts of the universe.

Once, the endless garbage that fell there gave the Sakaar People, who were struggling to survive under the Red King's rule, a chance to eke out a living.

At the same time, it also brought hope to the entire planet.

Sakaar is still recovering from its devastation, but the once crumbling Totem Tower is under reconstruction.

The difference is that, in addition to the champion Totem originally engraved on them, there is also a special symbol hanging on them.

It was a black and green logo, with black triangles and green triangles separated by one another, resembling an hourglass.

Inside the Totem Tower.

Before a long silver table sat Sakaar King Sakaar, the new leader of Sakaar.

Yes, under the shared faith of the Saka people across the entire planet, Ben became the new king of this planet.

However, the Old Power that he unleashed during his battle with the Red King is now somewhat difficult to recreate.

That was the life force of all the people of Sakaar itself; in other words, it was also the power of Sakaar itself. To be honest, it was somewhat similar to Star Voice Zoffy Ultraman series a certain Ultraman comic.

However, Ben didn't care. The seed had been planted, and sooner or later, he would completely master that ancient power.

At that moment, he stood up and said:

"Therefore, I hereby declare the Galactic Plumbers to be established today!"

Everyone present couldn't help but turn their gaze to him. Just a few weeks ago, no one would have believed that this seemingly frail man would bring such tremendous changes to Sakaar.

"Looma, Brunnhilde, Bill, Caiera, and Loki..."

"Huh? Is there something I need to do?" Loki, who had been sitting in a daze, looked up, looking surprised.

His sudden interruption immediately drew everyone's displeasure, and Looma clenched her fists, giving him a threatening look.

Loki immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Ben pressed his hands down to signal them to quiet down, then said, "For now, the five of you will serve as Security Officer."

"Our goal as the Galactic Plumbers is to maintain peace throughout the universe. However, Sakaar is currently in a state of disrepair and needs rebuilding, so there's no rush. Our top priority is to rebuild Sakaar."

"But..."

Bill hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Ben, of course, noticed his hesitation and knew exactly what Bill was worried about. He immediately reassured him, "Bill, it is our duty to ensure the survival of the Korbin Race. You can take a team and go find your people."

"I am extremely grateful!"

Bill was moved to tears, so much so that he wanted to kneel down and Ben to Bant immediately.

"I believe that the fighters who were in the same boat as you in the arena back then would have been willing to help you."

"I can help too!" Looma said immediately, afraid that Ben would think she was useless. "Don't forget that the engines built by the Tetramand are the best in the entire universe!"

Then, she changed the subject, her twenty fingers shyly intertwined, and said, "Besides, I also have some personal matters to attend to."

"Personal matters?"

"Oh, that's it! We haven't collected Engagement Gift yet!" Looma said. "The first few items are easy to find, but they're ice creatures, which don't exist on this planet. I'll have to leave Sakaar and look for them."

"Ice... snow creatures?" Loki's tone was a little off; he glanced sideways at Looma.

"It's Bingbing, lifeless thing."

Looma nodded, then asked, "Do you happen to know where it is?"

No, I have absolutely no idea...

Loki shook his head frantically, unable to meet Looma's gaze.

Ben sighed, "Looma, I've already told you, I'm still a minor."

"It's alright, there's no rush," Looma, casually putting her feet up on the table. "But the Betrothal Gifts need to be prepared first. Actually, I don't want to just find some things that seem appropriate to make up the numbers; the best ones would be genuine treasures."

Severed limbs and blue objects were commonplace on the garbage-strewn Sakaar, but Looma wasn't about to be so careless.

"My plan is to find a Golden Arm, and the blue object needs to be made of magnificent gemstones," she said after thinking for a moment. "The target of my conquest also needs to be of a significant size... How about we just conquer a planet?"

"Have you forgotten the principles of our Galactic Plumbers?" Ben pinched his brow with two fingers.

The battle maniac Looma and the Galactic Plumbers are indeed not a good match.

Then, Ben looked at Brunnhilde, hoping that this Valkyries would be a little more reliable.

But he soon realized he was wrong, terribly wrong.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Brunnhilde's eyes gleamed with naiveté. "I agreed to help you fight in the war for the sake of endless drinking, and you actually expect me to work for you? Dream on!"

"You really can't rely on any of you," Ben sighed.

"Ahem," Loki coughed twice, drawing Ben's attention, then puffed out his chest, looking like he was waiting for Ben to call his name.

His enthusiasm struck Ben as odd.

"What? Don't you plan to go back to Asgard and impress your brother and father?"

"Of course I'll go back, but not now. Sakaar is in dire need of talent right now, and coincidentally, I have some knowledge of many things. Building Sakaar is my responsibility." Loki spoke with an air of righteous indignation, as if he were the only one capable of doing so.

But Ben noticed that when he spoke, his eyes would unconsciously glance upwards.

Are you sure?

"Okay, that old man gave me a buzz cut. If I go back now, Thor will laugh me to death..."

Hair is Asgardian's second life!

Caiera, with a motherly smile, watched the group of people joking around at the Galactic Plumbers meeting. Then she spoke, "With everyone's help, I believe Sakaar will soon regain its former prosperity—no, it will be even more glorious than before!"

"That's right!" Loki nodded in deep agreement, then he posed a pointed question, "So, Great King of Sakaar, what are you doing?"

He spread his hands, waving them around like a money-attracting machine at the entrance of a shop. "To be worshipped by the Saka people like a mascot? To give them support in their beliefs?"

"Is that even a question?"

Ben said matter-of-factly:

"Of course I'm going back to Earth to study! How long do you think my vacation is? If my school hadn't been demolished, I wouldn't even have this month-long vacation!"

At this point, Ben expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Connors.

Great Connors!

For a moment, the entire conference room fell silent.

It's hard to imagine that the phrase "going to school" would come out of the mouth of someone who has just conquered a planet.

All I can say is that I don't understand it, but I'm deeply shocked.

"I have one more question."

Loki raised his hand and said.

Did you know that the flow of time on Sakaar is actually different from that in other parts of the universe?

He looked at Ben and asked a crucial question.

"You think you've been here for a few weeks, but maybe a year has passed in the Midgard."

Upon hearing this, before Ben could speak, Caiera shook her head.

"Actually, the regions with more chaotic time flow are all near the Great Portal. The time flow inside the planet is not much different from that in most parts of the universe," she said.

The chaotic timeline on Sakaar was caused by countless spatial wormholes. Once you move away from that area, the distorted spacetime will gradually return to normal.

"That's good. I don't want to disappear for a year and then come home to get scolded by Uncle Ben and Aunt May..."

Ben breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then let's get started."

"Caiera, this planet is temporarily in your care. Gather the surviving Sakaar people together, and let the aliens who accidentally ended up on Sakaar choose whether to stay or leave."

"Bill, you organize the Korbin Rescue Team; Looma, you modify the spaceship engine..."

"Loki, contact Heimdall and have him open the Bifrost to send me back to Earth."

It hadn't actually been long since he left Earth, but Ben felt as if a century had passed.

The immense disconnect between conquering the world and studying hard made him feel as if they were from completely different universes.

"It would be a miracle if I could even contact him," Loki said, shaking his head. But he still closed his eyes and began to call out to Heimdall.

A few seconds later, he opened his eyes.

"Damn it, I actually got in touch with him! And what's even more damning is that he's actually planning to open the Bifrost for you, a mere mortal!"

He really couldn't understand when the Divine Realm had become so lenient towards the Midgardian.

Regardless, Loki was quite happy.

Heimdall's willingness to respond to him at least proves that Odin did not truly care about the sins he had committed.

Once he returns to Asgard, he'll likely only serve two years in prison before being released.

He's an expert on prison food!

Although they were old comrades-in-arms, Ben paid no attention to Loki's inner thoughts.

He designed a series of battle suits based on the style of Plumbers, and also equipped Loki and others with the Galactic Plumbers Badge.

This badge enables instant communication across vast distances, allowing you to contact someone and send a signal even if they are separated by countless light-years.

Loki and the others didn't mind wearing the badge.

"But forget about the battle suits," Brunnhilde said. "They're ugly and inconvenient. Let the regular Plumbers wear them..."

As everyone knows, matching uniforms are standard equipment for extras.

Having done all this, Ben was finally ready to return to Earth.

"I wonder how Peter is doing..."

--

"I wonder how things are going with the Benny?"

Peter sighed and stuffed his phone, its screen shattered, into his bag.

So much has happened this past month.

For example, the Osborn Corporation announced that it had partnered with a small company called Primus to develop Self-Healing Serum that would benefit countless people.

After that, Osborn's stock, which had plummeted to rock bottom, suddenly surged.

Peter was actually quite happy for Harry about Osborn's comeback.

However, their good fortune was short-lived. During one of Norman Osborn's media interviews, a supervillain dressed in green armor, riding Goblin Glider, and claiming to be Green Goblin, suddenly appeared and attacked Norman and Harry.

Since then, Peter has been fighting that monster.

Besides, Hell's Kitchen is not peaceful either.

"One Spider-Man can't be in two places at once!"

Peter sighed.
