Cross-Dimensional Distress Call from a Kindred Omnitrix

Jiang Li casually opened a portal and kicked Phineas and Ferb, who were eating barbecue, along with their microwave-shaped warship that had turned into a ball, back to their animated world.

"Those two clowns are finally gone." Tony breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Li picked up the ice-cold beer and took a sip.

Just as Jiang Li was pondering which quiet dimension to take Gwen on vacation...

Beep beep beep--!

Suddenly, the [Omnitrix] on Jiang Li wrist erupted with an extremely dazzling burst of alternating red and green light. Immediately afterward, a violent, high-frequency oscillation emanated from the core of the dial.

Jiang Li was all too familiar with this kind of turbulence.

This is a resonance that only extremely similar "Omnitrix core programs" can produce when a cross-dimensional collision occurs!

"What's wrong?" Gwen noticed the change in Jiang Li's eyes.

Before Jiang Li could answer...

Suddenly, like a curtain being torn open, a crack appeared in the space in the center of the lawn without warning.

A middle-aged man wearing an old-fashioned British trench coat, goggles, and carrying a cane slowly walked out of the crack.

Professor Paradox, the Time Traveler.

"Good afternoon, Avengers. Good afternoon, Lord Jiang Li."

Professor Paradox smiled and casually pulled a paper bag from his pocket, offering it to Jiang Li. "Would you like a hard candy?"

"Professor Paradox."

Jiang Li didn't take the candy, her gaze fixed on the man who could freely travel through time and space. "Why aren't you in your own Time Stream? What are you doing here in the Marvel Universe looking for me?"

"Because your home planet, or rather, the original universe of the watch, has encountered a major crisis."

Professor Paradox put away the paper bag, his expression becoming unusually serious.

"You defeated Thanos in this universe, bridging the Marvel and DC dimensions. But in the 'Omniverse' (a branch of the Ben 10 parallel universe within the Omniverse), a cross-dimensional hunt specifically targeting 'watch holders' has begun."

Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. "Hunting?"

"Yes."

Professor Paradox waved his cane, and several holographic images appeared in mid-air.

The scene is filled with boys who look remarkably like Ben Tennyson, but their eyes are filled with savagery and madness.

Some were dressed in punk attire with orange mohawks; some wore black and white striped negative-polar suits and looked world-weary; some were even completely rotting, like zombies.

"Mad Ben, Nega Ben, Bad Ben..."

Professor Paradox pointed at the screen, "An alliance of extremely evil variant Ben is frantically invading other good universes. They not only want to rule the Multiverse, but also to seize the Omnitrix from other good variants."

"I don't have time to call for reinforcements now. In this Omniverse, only the Omnitrix on your wrist, which transcends all limitations, can stop them."

Professor Paradox looked at Jiang Li, his tone almost pleading.

Jiang Li looked at the evil variants on the screen who were arrogant and domineering because they had a broken watch, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Jiang Li turned to look at Gwen.

Gwen understood immediately and pressed the Spider-Totem on her chest, instantly covering her entire body in a black and white ghost suit. She was already used to following Jiang Li to solve all sorts of cosmic-level troubles.

"Who is their target now?" Jiang Li asked Professor Paradox.

"It is an extremely special universe—Earth—the Unrepresented."

Professor Paradox said quickly, "In that universe, Ben Tennyson never found the watch; he was just an ordinary person. But that universe is the anchor that keeps all timelines balanced. Mad Ben has already arrived there with his army, ready to wipe out that ordinary Ben!"

Is it No Watch Ben?

He raised his left hand and pressed his thumb heavily against the space knob on the edge of the dial.

Buzz--!

A ghostly green portal suddenly opened, and Jiang Li and Gwen stepped into it, disappearing into the Marvel Universe.

at the same time.

Earth - Dimension of the Unrepresented, Bellwood.

This once peaceful city is now engulfed in flames.

The streets were littered with cars blasted apart by energy cannons. A mob of thugs dressed in Wasteland punk-style armor were wreaking havoc, looting, and burning.

In the central square of the city.

A boy wearing an ordinary green jacket, his face filled with terror, was falling to the ground in a disheveled state. He was just an ordinary middle school student with no superpowers.

It is precisely this universe's "No Watch Ben".

Standing before him was an extremely arrogant figure.

The man was wearing an orange Wasteland vest, sported an exaggerated mohawk, and wore an orange and black spiked watch on his left wrist.

Mad Ben.

"Run! Why aren't you running anymore, you piece of trash!"

The Mad Ben stomped on the chest of the No Watch Ben and laughed arrogantly.

"I can't believe that in countless universes there's such a useless variant as you! Without the Omnitrix, you're not even worth a stray dog!"

"Who... who are you...?" the No Watch Ben struggled in agony.

"I am your nightmare, the peak you can never reach!"

Mad Ben, raising his left hand to press the orange transformation dial.

"Once I grind you into mincemeat, this universe will be mine to rule!"

Just as the Mad Ben's finger was about to touch the watch face...

Boom--!

The sky dozens of meters above his head was suddenly torn apart by an extremely violent green energy.

A massive spatial passage appeared out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, a tall, slender figure in a black trench coat plummeted straight down from the passage like a meteorite, crashing heavily onto the ground between the Mad Ben and the No Watch Ben with a piercing sonic boom!

Bang!

A violent shockwave erupted instantly, sending the arrogant Mad Ben, along with his watch, flying more than ten meters away. He rolled several times on the ground before finally coming to a stop.

The smoke and dust cleared.

Jiang Li put his hands in his pockets and slowly straightened up.

He glanced down at the terrified ordinary Ben on the ground, then looked up at the Mad Ben had gotten up from the ground not far away.

Jiang Li raised his left hand and casually rotated the [Omnitrix] that emitted a blinding green light.
