He Should Be Thanking Us!

To be honest, Ben really didn't expect Ultron to pull this trick on him.

Banning that Little Broken Watch outright is simply unethical.

But upon closer examination, it actually makes sense.

Knowing your watch is powerful, why not target it instead of focusing on dealing with the transformed aliens? Isn't that foolish?

It's like when Avengers: Endgame fought Thanos in Thanos. Knowing that Thanos Stones, why didn't I just take the stones from him instead of fighting him head-on?

The main problem is that they can't win in a direct confrontation. Didn't you see Captain Marvel get sent flying with a single punch from the Power Stone?

Ben looked down at the watch that was covered up, and for a moment he fell silent. After a few seconds, he looked up, looking somewhat admiring.

"I must say, the new brain works really well; you're much smarter Tony."

"I'm just not as arrogant as him. Of course, arrogance is part of stupidity, so it's understandable that you say I'm smarter than him."

"Ultron said calmly."

It had more or less accepted its fate and hadn't even considered escaping; otherwise, things might have been very different. Although Eunice was able to pursue it in the cyber world, their intelligence levels were roughly the same, and if Ultron were truly determined to break through, it still had a chance of success.

But it didn't do that.

Ultimately, it doesn't destroy for the sake of destruction.

This was a path it had found in its pursuit of peace, but now it seems to be failing, so it has no intention of continuing.

Now it seems more like it's using its remaining energy to see if Ben has the ability to maintain world peace in another way.

Perhaps perfect peace is impossible, but at least most peace is achievable.

"In terms of arrogance, Ben Parker and Tony are no different. You could have destroyed me much faster; you could have just had Eunice do it, but you didn't." Ultron seemed somewhat disappointed. The metal of its arm twisted, as if turning into a ball of mercury, and then a new mechanical hand materialized.

Ultron heavily in this armor specifically developed to deal with the Ben.

It doesn't look particularly large, but it uses a vast amount of materials, which are stored using Nanotechnology. In fact, every the Cube decimeter of this suit of armor contains enough material to build several suits of armor.

It can also be used for deformation when necessary.

"Now that you've lost this watch and the ability to transform into an alien, how will you fight me?"

"Lose?"

Ben shook his head and chuckled silently.

"You should use Vibranium."

"Huh?" Ultron was taken aback, not understanding what Ben meant.

Vibranium?

Is there a big difference?

It knew that Ben was very strong, but that various oddly shaped alloys on Earth were also very strong, and that Vibranium was not the only strong metal.

"You don't actually think you can crush that lump of metal with that force of tens of tons? Don't be ridiculous. If you did that, the watch inside would probably be damaged too."

"Why should I?" Ben smiled slightly, then raised his arm. "Omintrix, activate voice mode, Big Chill."

In an instant, the green light seemed to pierce through the metal and envelop Ben, and the next moment, the blue-black Big Chill appeared!

Ben was wrapped in robe-like wings, his left hand held horizontally in front of him. Then, his body seemed to enter another space, becoming transparent, and the metal that sealed the watch pierced through his wrist and fell to the ground with a clatter.

Now, Ultron understands why Ben suggested it use Vibranium.

Because Vibranium can absorb shocks, it can effectively isolate sound fluctuations, preventing Ben from activating voice mode.

It was just this one small detail that allowed Ben to turn the tide and wipe out Ultron's hard-won advantage.

Of course, this wasn't Ultron's fault, but rather a result of information asymmetry.

It truly hadn't expected this trick. If it had known the Little Broken Watch had a voice mode, it would have used Vibranium long ago. When it peeked into the Galactic Plumbers's documents, this wasn't mentioned at all!

But that makes sense.

Judging from the current situation, the Galactic Plumbers Association was not under my control at all; it was just a deception to lull me into a false sense of security. The information I could see was, of course, intentionally shown to it by Ben.

Ultron thought.

"Even if I'm using Vibranium, I'm afraid you have a way to deal with it, right?" Ultron didn't think he was just one step behind; in reality, the gap between the two was too great.

Judging from the current situation, it seems that Ben had already made preparations before he was even born.

Ben remained noncommittal.

Vibranium also has its Vibranium; this metal is not invincible. The Galactic Plumbers has mined a large amount of Anti-Vibranium in Antarctica, which can be broken with a simple Vibranium.

Not to mention that if Ben's life is threatened, the Little Broken Watch can automatically start, so it's safe to say that no matter what, Ultron has no chance of winning.

The watch's protective mechanism is Ben's greatest asset.

Within the capabilities of a watch, it's practically a guarantee of immortality.

"Codename: Big Chill, first appeared during the fight against Hydra, freezing an entire S.H.I.E.L.D.. base. It can render its body invisible, making it difficult to deal with using physical means..."

Ultron instantly pulled up the information on the Big Chill.

Then it started playing horse-drawn carriage.

Among the Alien Hero Ben has shown, it can target a wide variety of them. Even against Four Arms, Ultron can fight him for a while with its nanotech armor. Even if it can't win, it's not entirely impossible to take away a drop of blood from him.

But it's precisely the Big Chill...

It's not that the Big Chill is invincible, but without concrete information, Ultron didn't even know the principle behind the Big Chill's invisibility, let alone how to counter it.

It can be said that the Ghostfreak and the Big Chill completely sealed off all of its abilities.

However, it didn't give up immediately; at least, it could raise the temperature of the armor to combat the extreme cold.

Buzz...

Energy is circulating. Ultron, through the Arc Reactor, fully unleashes the energy of the Corrodium and transmits it throughout his body!

Then it instantly turned red-hot.

The originally dark metal was heated to a bright red by the rapidly increasing temperature, and even the air distorted as heat waves spread out in layers.

The cold air that Ben exhaled was instantly evaporated.

Both Quicksilver and Wanda started sweating, especially Quicksilver, who involuntarily took a few steps back, almost backing out of the lab.

Wanda initially wanted to leave as well, but after glancing at Eunice, who stood quietly behind Ben and showed no intention of moving, she didn't leave either. Instead, she silently used magic to create a shield, separating the two of them.

Eunice turned to look at Wanda in surprise.

With her body, the high temperature released by Ultron had no effect on her at all.

The Extremis Virus can release temperatures of several thousand degrees Celsius, and that's only under the premise of a human body. If it were Vibranium body, it could withstand even higher temperatures.

However, Eunice still felt a strange, indescribable feeling about Wanda's goodwill.

It felt warm and very intimate.

"Your ice has no effect on me. Even if you transform into Heatblast, I have a coolant ready." Ultron looked at Ben and said calmly.

The ground beneath its feet seemed to be softening, and the intense heat caused glassware in the laboratory to shatter.

Ultron looked at Ben with confidence, believing that Ben would most likely switch to Heatblast to resist the high temperature.

But Ben did not do that.

"Oh..."

He let out a sneer, and as he opened his mouth, he exhaled a frosty breath that instantly vaporized.

Ben, like a terrifying medieval wizard, was shrouded in Cloak embroidered with bizarre patterns as he walked straight toward Ultron.

The scorching temperature might indeed make him uncomfortable, provided they were still in the same phase space.

Indeed, faced with the intense heat released by Ultron, Ben did not hesitate to enter another phase, rendering the opponent's temperature completely meaningless.

He strode forward with the composure of death itself.

Then, Ben stopped in front of Ultron, and slowly raised his slender arm, reaching directly towards Ultron's chest.

The moth-like claws pierced through the steel, then seemed to instantly regain their physical form. Ben twisted his wrist and pulled sharply—

Sizzle!

Once again, Ultron's energy was brutally ripped out!

The black claws seemed to be gripping a beating heart; apart from the absence of blood, they were no different.

The invincible Ultron has fallen.

Eunice immediately immersed her consciousness completely into the network world and began to thoroughly erase Ultron's programs.

A moment later, Eunice regained consciousness.

"Is it resolved?"

Eunice nodded and smiled, saying, "All of Ultron's programs have been completely erased. It went very smoothly, and it didn't resist."

"Ever since it knew I had a plan to deal with it, it had given up on resisting." Ben deactivated his transformation and held the Little Broken Watch.

Although Ultron didn't cause any major trouble, it still served as a warning to him.

Ultron's fighting ability mostly relied on his Little Broken Watch. If he hadn't sealed the watch but instead cut off his own hand, it would have been a different story.

The image of Thor striking Thanos with his axe in Avengers: Thanos War flashed through his mind.

Replace it with --

Ben: You should cut off my hand (Thanos face).

Thinking about it that way, it really does have a strong ironic tone.

Ben shook his head, trying to clear the jumbled thoughts from his mind.

"Actually, with the Old Power and Energy of the Universe, plus Spider-Man's Superpowers, even without the watch, my fighting ability isn't bad."

Spider-Man's Superpowers are a given, and with Little Broken Watch optimizing his genes, Ben will inevitably become the most powerful Spider-Man in the regular series.

However, he is still in the growth stage of his abilities and is far from reaching his limit.

With the addition of two types of energy to compensate for his blind spots, Ben's combat power is still considerable even without the watch, so there's no need to worry about him being powerless without it.

Eunice glanced at the fallen Ultron Robot, then looked at Ben and asked, "Benny, what should we do next?"

Ben snapped out of his daze. Although Ultron was dead, there was still a mess left on Earth.

"First, remove Ultron's control over the world, then restore Norman Osborn's authority, restore the reputation of Super Hero, stop the war on Wakanda, explain what happened to the world, and announce that Tony Stark will be held responsible for everything that has occurred in the past few months."

Ben quickly made the arrangements.

Although the situation was a mess, he didn't mind. After all, he was there to turn the tide, so he could just leave the blame to Tony Stark; it was his job to take responsibility.

Although Ultron's rampage was not something Tony had anticipated, it was ultimately a consequence of his own stubbornness, and he was largely to blame.

Of course, there weren't any major problems on the United States side. Ultron was subdued by Ben before he could do anything. At most, Tony's reputation was damaged and he had to pay some compensation.

The trouble is in Wakanda.

Ultron directly declared war on them and mined a large amount of Vibranium resources. Even with the camaraderie of being comrades, Wakanda would not let this go and would inevitably hold Tony accountable.

"If Wakanda were to seek compensation, even all of Tony's assets wouldn't be enough."

Ben shook his head and smiled.

These are not his concerns.

Eunice nodded and was about to leave when Ben called her back, "Wait, also add a live stream on all the online platforms so everyone can see Tony Stark's Passion."

Ben plans to broadcast Tony's tragic ordeal on Sakaar live worldwide.

Let everyone see how this playboy gets humiliated by him.

Upon hearing this, Wanda's eyes lit up.

She and Quicksilver did give up on killing Tony, but they would be more than happy to see him suffer.

"I understand." Eunice nodded, glanced at Ben with her emerald eyes, and said with a smile, "Benny, I didn't expect you to hold a grudge."

Ben:???

"What are you saying!" Ben immediately denied. "I'm helping him. The crime Tony committed this time can't be solved with money. If we really want to investigate, he could be said to have rebelled against all of humanity, almost causing the extinction of mankind. Death wouldn't be an exaggeration."

"I'm using this method to let the whole world know that this happened in a way that even Tony Stark couldn't have predicted. By showing him his miserable state, there will be far fewer people blaming him when he returns to Earth. He should be thanking me!"

"It's definitely not because of the time he dissed me on the H.A.M.M.E.R. Helicarrier!"

"Yes, you're right. It's definitely not about getting revenge on Tony Stark."

Eunice smiled and nodded, appearing to agree, but it seemed to say, "Do you think I believe you?"

Ben:...

This Eunice is not cute at all.
