"Ben Tennyson, you ruined my life! It's all your fault I turned into a monster!"
"And then you locked me up in the Null Void, that damned place where the sun never shines!"
The moment Kevin 11,000 appeared, he immediately aimed his fury at Ben 10,000.
But when he saw there were two aliens present, he froze.
"They're both Ben Tennyson. One of them is from the past. Just kill them both!" Dr. Animo walked over and explained.
"The past?" Kevin's interest was instantly piqued. "Perfect. What I hate most is your younger self. Let me rip you apart, hahaha!"
Ben 10,000's face darkened at the sight of Kevin in this form.
Kevin had never been this powerful before. Now he had swelled to over ten meters tall, even bigger than Vilgax.
It looked like he had spent his time in the Null Void absorbing the powers of other aliens.
"Come on, let's take him together! He's just a measly little Kevin. Watch this hero beat the stuffing out of him!" Heatblast gestured wildly.
"Hehe, good buddy, let's have some fun and see who ends up the winner." As Kevin spoke, he lashed out with a flaming tentacle at Humungousaur.
Humungousaur raised a hand and grabbed the flaming tentacle, but he was clearly struggling. His knees started to buckle under the pressure.
That tentacle was even bigger than Humungousaur himself.
"Idiot, eat this!"
Standing on his cloud, Heatblast formed fireballs with both hands and hurled them one after another into Kevin's face.
But most of Kevin 11,000's body, just like Heatblast's, was made of fire and molten rock. Those attacks were no more than a tickle to him.
Splash!
Kevin spat out a mass of slime, blurring Heatblast's vision, then followed up with a slap that sent him crashing to the ground.
Then he thrust out his massive blood-red arm, seized Humungousaur, and slammed him into the floor hard enough to blast open a huge crater.
Humungousaur grimaced in pain as he lay in the crater, feeling like his whole body was falling apart.
"Hahahaha! No one can stop me now!" Kevin raised both arms high, arrogance written all over him.
"This is bad."
Four-Armed Humungousaur punched Vilgax back and stepped in front of Kevin 11,000.
"And who are you supposed to be?" Kevin frowned, puzzled as to why there were so many aliens around today.
"Ben's Cuz!"
Four-Armed Humungousaur kicked off the ground, blasting out a ring of white shockwaves beneath his feet, then shot forward like a cannonball and slammed a punch straight into Kevin's face.
Boom!
Kevin 11,000's enormous body was actually forced backward by the blow, staggering dozens of meters before finally stopping.
"Anyone who dares ruin my plans dies!" Kevin roared in fury, flames raging all over his body. He looked like a giant fire god as he glared at Four-Armed Humungousaur.
Even Dr. Animo didn't dare get too close, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire.
"Cuz..." Humungousaur clutched his chest and walked over to Four-Armed Humungousaur's side.
"Ben 10,000, you and Ben handle Vilgax. I'll take Kevin," Four-Armed Humungousaur said calmly, without the slightest trace of fear.
"Alright." Humungousaur paused, then added, "Cuz, if you can, take the fight outside."
Four-Armed Humungousaur nodded. He naturally understood why.
Behind them, Vilgax charged in again.
Heatblast and Humungousaur exchanged a look, then rushed forward together to take on the archvillain.
"Roar!"
Kevin whipped his tentacles around, his whole body wrapped in flames and killing intent. His presence was terrifying, like a primordial beast charging straight ahead.
"Come on!"
Four-Armed Humungousaur let out a roar, his muscles bulging as he clashed head-on with Kevin.
As for Dr. Animo, he merely smiled coldly and turned toward the Null Void exit. "The real show is about to begin."
One monster after another began crawling out, each one savage-looking and vicious.
Green Giant, Snow Woman, Evil Dragon, Flying Tiger, Thunder Snake, Storm Hound, and more. Dozens of monsters suddenly appeared in the basement.
"Hey, friends, I'm Dr. Animo. I'm the one who set you free. From now on, you all follow my orders!" Dr. Animo laughed loudly.
But the aliens ignored him completely and rushed straight toward the surface. They wanted to devour delicious humans.
In just a few breaths, every last monster had vanished.
Dr. Animo stamped his foot in fury. He planned to release even more monsters, then use overwhelming force to bring them under control.
"Charmcaster's spell!" a sharp voice cried out.
A surge of golden light shot forth like a savage golden dragon, brilliant and blinding, and slammed into Dr. Animo like lightning.
Dr. Animo had no time to dodge and was blasted away, crashing down beside the Null Void exit.
"You..."
Lying on the ground, Dr. Animo glared at the newcomer.
It was a beautiful young woman with orange hair and green eyes. She had a slender figure, wore a blue robe, and the golden light in her hand was slowly fading.
After Gwendolyn knocked Dr. Animo down, a tiny figure leaped out from behind her like a nimble cat and landed on the control console.
With one pull of the lever, the exit shut instantly.
"You think the likes of you can stop me?" Dr. Animo sneered.
"And me."
Just then, Grandpa Max arrived.
"Grandpa!" Gwen cried out in delight.
Grandpa Max gave a slight nod. Then one of his arms slowly unfolded, revealing cold mechanical plating as it transformed into a laser cannon.
Gwen was stunned. "Oh my God, what happened?"
"A lot can happen in twenty years." Grandpa Max smiled faintly, then turned serious and fixed Dr. Animo with a cold stare.
"How touching. Too bad... you'll all be in hell soon enough."
Dr. Animo let out a nasty chuckle, pulled out a purple orb, and hurled it to the ground, where it exploded with a bang.
A freezing wind swept out in all directions...
...
Above Ben 10,000 Headquarters.
A sleek Gundam streaked through the sky, blue thrusters blazing from its back.
It stood nearly nineteen meters tall and weighed 31.2 tons. Its overall color scheme was white, with golden armor set from the brow to the forehead, a red protective plate along the jaw, and red shoulder armor mounted on both sides.
It had razor-sharp claws, a tail blade whipping wildly behind it and tearing through the air, a massive hammer-spear in hand, and a silver alloy katana on its back. The whole machine looked like a cold-blooded killing weapon, radiating crushing pressure.
Barbatos Lupus, Emperor Form!
Future Lucian, glasses on, sat at ease inside the cockpit.
Truth be told, he felt Ben 10,000 could probably handle this alone. Based on past experience...
Still, the fact that someone had managed to break into 1A Central Sector meant this enemy was no ordinary opponent. He had brought the Gundam over as backup, just to be safe.
Even if he ended up not helping much, he could just treat it as a joyride.
Just as Barbatos was about to land, a large number of ferocious alien beasts suddenly burst out from underground.
The Evil Dragon had twin horns on its head and scarlet vertical pupils glaring murderously, with a foul stench rolling off its body. It circled through the air and shot toward the city at top speed.
Snow Woman, Green Giant, and the other monsters followed close behind.
"Interesting. Barbatos... we've got work to do!"
Future Lucian took control of the Gundam, blue flames bursting from its back as it shot after the Evil Dragon at astonishing speed...
