All eyes were now focused on the black-haired boy who had just deactivated his Alien X transformation and returned to human form.

Just minutes ago, that arrogant purple sweet potato spirit who clamored to balance the universe was slapped out of Earth's atmosphere and turned into a shooting star in the sky.

"Glug."

Rocket Raccoon swallowed hard, breaking the deathly silence. He stared greedily at Jiang Li's right hand—there, Jiang Li was taking the golden glove, inlaid with four Infinity Stones, back out of his warp pocket.

"Um... buddy," Rocket rubbed his hands together, "That metal glove looks pretty valuable, and it's not the right size for you. If you don't mind, I can reluctantly keep it for you."

"I am Groot." (I think I can wear it too.)

"Don't even think about it, it's a plush toy."

Jiang Li casually tossed the Infinity Gauntlet, powerful enough to destroy half the universe, like a basketball, startling the Avengers around him and making their hearts skip a beat.

"This thing is now an extremely dangerous substance."

Jiang Li stopped the tossing game and walked straight up to Doctor Strange and White Vision.

"Doctor Strange, and Vision," Jiang Li held out his free hand, "Lend me your gems for a moment."

What do you want to do?

Doctor Strange cautiously took a half-step back, his hands protecting the Eye of Agamotto on his chest. "Jiang Li, although you just saved the universe, that doesn't mean you can possess all the Infinity Stones. When the Infinity Stones are gathered together, they create a qualitative change; that temptation... no one can resist."

"Yeah, kid." Tony Stark also opened his tattered visor, his expression grave. "With all six Infinity Stones, you can make any wish with a snap of your the Snap. But this thing's Gamma Radiation is enough to cook a strong man."

"Relax, everyone. I have no interest in the Snap."

Jiang Li chuckled dismissively.

"Relying on external objects to fulfill desires is the choice of the weak. Besides, this tattered glove has severe radiation backlash; I don't want to become a one-armed hero after using it."

Jiang Li pointed to the Omnitrix on his left wrist.

"I rely on the infinite evolution of life's genes. I borrowed the gemstone simply because my watch has been a bit 'malnourished' lately, and I wanted to give it a boost."

"An extra meal?" Dr. Banner's eyes widened. "You want to use the Infinity Stones to charge your alien watch? These two completely different higher-dimensional energies, if they clash, could blow up the entire Solar System!"

"The end of science is metaphysics, and Azmuth's technology will always be ahead of your imagination."

Jiang Li's tone was filled with undeniable confidence. After witnessing Alien X's power that disregarded all laws, Doctor Strange and Vision finally exchanged a glance and chose to compromise.

The green Time Stone and the yellow Mind Stone were gently attached to the last two empty slots of the Infinity Gauntlet.

"Buzz----!!"

The moment all six gems are gathered.

A seven-colored storm of cosmic primordial energy instantly swept across the entire Wakanda plain. The sky shimmered with aurora borealis, and the earth resonated—it was the manifestation of omniscient and omnipotent power. As long as Jiang Li puts on the gauntlet now, he will be the true god of the Marvel Universe.

Without the slightest hesitation, he simply raised his left hand and pressed the Omnitrix dial tightly against the gemstone surface of the Infinity Gauntlet.

"System, activate underlying energy analysis mode. Target: Infinity Stones Frequency."

"Analysis begins."

[Extremely high density of primordial cosmic energy detected... Connecting...]

[WARNING: Energy level exceeded limit! May overload DNA core database!]

[Attempting forced fusion... Fusion progress 10%... 50%... 90%...]

"Zzzzz!!!"

The Omnitrix emitted an unprecedentedly piercing buzzing sound, and the originally green dial instantly turned into a dazzling seven colors. Jiang Li felt as if his left wrist was being burned by a Nova, and the veins on his forehead bulged, but he gritted his teeth and did not let go.

He's gambling. He's gambling that Azmuth's level 20 technology can perfectly analyze and absorb the rule energy of the Marvel Universe.

"Boom!!"

A beam of seven-colored light shot into the sky from Jiang Li's wrist.

After an unknown amount of time, the light gradually faded.

The six gems on the Infinity Gauntlet remain intact (though their light has dimmed slightly, as some of their original frequency has been drained).

However, the Omnitrix on Jiang Li's wrist underwent a dramatic change—the originally protruding mechanical buttons became more streamlined, as if they were integrated with his skin; a mysterious high-dimensional rune appeared around the dial, and the deep green light pulsed steadily like breathing.

[Ding! Energy analysis and recharging complete.]

[System core limiter has been removed.]

[Congratulations, host! Master Control Master Control Mode has been permanently unlocked.]

Hearing the heavenly notification in his mind, Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief, a wildly joyful smile spreading across his lips.

It's done!

Master Control! The most overpowered ultimate cheat in the Ben10 series!

"Is there anything different?" Captain America stepped forward, looking at Jiang Li's brand-new watch with some confusion.

"Change?"

Jiang Li's mind stirred.

There is no need to make any movement; you don't need to tap the watch face with your hand.

Swish!

He instantly transformed into a blue-black XLR8, becoming a blur as he circled the entire Wakanda battlefield.

Before anyone could even see the afterimage clearly, a flash of green light appeared, and he instantly transformed into a gigantic Four Arms, lifting a crashed Necrocraft with a single hand.

Following that, the Heatblast's flames, the Diamondhead of War's crystals, and the Arctiguana's ice...

In just five seconds, Jiang Li switched between more than twenty different alien forms!

No cooldown! No lag from the transformation flash! No need for physical contact with the dial! Completely controlled by thought!

"Instant thought switching, unlimited duration, and free access to the Full Gene Library."

Jiang Li transformed back into human form, clenched his fist, and felt the sense of control that allowed him to do whatever he wanted, as if he held the entire Milky Way in his hands.

"This is... the ultimate, perfect form."

"Okay, congratulations, you're a cheat code." Tony said sourly, then pointed to the gloves on the ground, "Now can we deal with this hot potato?"

"Certainly."

Jiang Li, without a second thought, took the Time Stone and tossed it to Doctor Strange, then tossed the Mind Stone to White Vision.

"The remaining four..."

Using the spatial permissions that Omnitrix had just acquired, Jiang Li directly opened a miniature independent coordinate system leading to the Null Void.

"These four gems and the glove are top secret of the Plumbers. Keeping them on Earth would be too conspicuous, and keeping them in space would easily attract madmen."

Jiang Li casually tossed the glove into that absolutely void dimensional coordinate system, sealing it off completely.

After finishing everything, Jiang Li turned around and looked at his comrades around him, who were exhausted, their armor damaged, but their eyes were incredibly bright.

"Everyone."

Jiang Li clapped his hands, the crisp sound carrying on the night breeze.

"We won the interstellar war, saved half of all life in the universe, and turned a madman who wanted to be God into a shooting star."

"I feel there's only one thing to do right now."

Jiang Li looked at King T'Challa, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Your Majesty, Wakanda should have those giant hot pots that can hold hundreds of people, right? Or large bonfire barbecues would also be fine."

T'Challa was taken aback for a moment, then broke into a hearty smile.

"Of course. The victory celebration in Wakanda will be an unforgettable experience for you all."

"Then let's go!"

Thor the first to raise Stormbreaker and shout, "To victory! I'll drink every last drop of wine in your cellars!"

"I want to eat that purple fruit!" Rocket Raccoon shouted from his perch on Groot's shoulders.

Jiang Li walked at the back of the crowd and glanced at the bright moon in the night sky.

He knew that although Thanos had been defeated, the ripples he had caused in the universe had only just begun. Kang the Conqueror, who had only shown himself once, and the even stronger beings lurking in the Multiverse, would not allow him, the greatest "variable," to remain at peace for long.

But that's all for the future.

"Gwen," Jiang Li whispered in his heart.

"I'm here, great hero. Welcome home." Gwen, smiling voice echoed in his mind. "To celebrate, I've airlifted authentic Chongqing hot pot broth from Stark Industries ' private lines right here on the Moon Base."

Jiang Li smiled, a relaxed smile.

"Wait for me, I'm coming home right away."
