Description: Ah, what a lovely smell in the air. Blood, sex, and brutality all round, a single whiff making a true warrior feel at home while the weak feel terror. This is the Death Arena, where Supreme Beings of the multiverse come to watch special and unique entities fight each other to the death!   

  　　Your fifth enemy is the almighty Ben 10,000, a pinnacle tier powerhouse who has never lost a conflict in his life. Good Luck. 

  　　Limitation 1: There is no surrendering on these floors, nor is there such a thing as a 'tie'. You either die, or your opponent dies.   

  　　Limitation 2: You may retreat from the floor at any time, but upon re-entry, you would have to resume from the exact situation you were in at the time.       

  　　Limitation 3: There is no time limit for fights, so even if both parties are ko'ed, the match will run until the first to take up kills the other.   

  　　Limitation 4: There is a limit on battle space. Exiting the arena intentionally or not will have one automatically obliterated from existence by the watching Supreme Beings.   

  　　Provision 1: You have full access to all your powers, titles and abilities, equipment and inventory.   

  　　Provision 2: All enemies are reduced to the same level and Rank as you regardless of whence they came.     

  　　Provision 3: Enemies do not grant experience upon being killed, but rather grant a random legendary skill, ability, item or equipment.   

  　　Rewards: Score Points, 1 Gold-Tier Reward Selection.｣   

  　　Draco, Qiong Qi and Clarent shared a look and nodded. 

  　　Run! 

  　　……did you think they were about to fight the guy? You mad? 

  　　There was no way in hell they were going to fight the mighty Ben 10,000. His name wasn't just for show, as he had 10,000 different alien forms to choose from to beat down their asses until they were nothing. Right now, all they could think about was how to make sure that they could outrun at least one of the other two stooges. 

  　　"Where do you think you're going?" With a flash of bright green light, Ben 10,000 transformed into the mature version of XLR8, moving so fast that he cut off their retreat. When the Shameless Trio tried to change directions, their foe was there before they could blink. 

  　　"Roar! Bastard of the ten thousand, don't force me to go all out!" Qiong Qi shouted with a falsely intimidating tone. 

  　　"Why talk so much? He may be fast, but can he avoid being burned?" Clarent scoffed, activating one of his skills. 

  　　Rain of Fire! 

  　　｢Rain of Fire – Ability   

  　　Effect: Call down a rain of fire over an area of 20 miles that pelts anything within with little balls of intense flame. This deals 1% fire damage per strike from a hail stone of fire.   

  　　Duration: 30 seconds   

  　　Cooldown: 15 minutes｣   

  　　Clarent spewed out a great amount of flame towards the sky, causing the whole area to be engulfed in red as the flames formed a cloud of their own. With the rumbling of thunder and fire, drops of flame began falling as if they were water, completely encapsulating the area within 20 miles around them. 

  　　When Ben 10,000 saw this, his expression became serious and he transformed into Heatblast. Despite being a race made of fire, he still created a thick flame shield around him to resist the incoming storm. 

  　　Clarent saw this, yet his pride as a Dragon couldn't just let it go like that, so he used his most basic skill, Fireball! 

  　　｢Fireball – Ability   

  　　Effect: Shoot a ball of fire at a target within 5000 yards. This deals 75% fire damage.   

  　　Cooldown: 0.5 seconds.｣   

  　　Since its cooldown was so short, he kept firing it rapidly, intending to drown the fellow out with his flames. However, Ben 10,000 used one hand to maintain the flame shield while he used the other one to fire out fireballs at the same tempo as Clarent, negating the Fire Dragons' own as they exploded into embers. 

  　　Clarent's face became ashen as he canceled his fire skills. Qiong Qi bellowed and charged in, raising a claw that magnified itself greatly. 

  　　"Divine Lion Claw!" Qiong Qi roared as he slashed down. 

  　　The claw broke through the flame shields and struck Ben 10,000, sending the fellow flying for a bit, though he easily regained his bearings. He shifted into a huge version of Wild Mutt, before he met Qiong Qi's follow up attack with his own strike. 

  　　Both of then were quickly engaged in a bestial fight, roaring biting and slashing at the other so quickly that it became a blut. Qiong Qi fought with the agility of a panther and the force of a tiger, while having the domination of a lion. Ben 10,000 fought with the shrewdness of a hyena, the ferocity of a wolf and the strength of a bear. 

  　　Their clash got the crowd going even more than his duel with Clarent. 

  　　Speaking of, he and Draco watched by the side with solemn expressions, not interfering in the fight for now. Eventually, Qiong Qi's bloodied body flew over and crashed beside them, the Divine Lion barely able to get up. Meanwhile Ben 10,000 looked a little beaten up as he shifted forms and returned to his human self. 

  　　"Is that all you've got?" He spat arrogantly. 

  　　Draco's eyes narrowed. He surmised that just like him, Qiong Qi and Clarent, their current oppenent should be a member of the Supreme Beings. As such, there had to be a reason why he was forced to come down here. 

  　　Could it be the Tower had changed the line-up due to them disturbing the status quo? …… or perhaps he had had just lost a bet? 

  　　Whatever the case… 

  　　"It's my turn now." Draco stated as he cracked his knuckles. 

  　　Ben 10,000 sneered as he changed… only that this time he remained looking human. The omnitrix had changed locations from his wrist to his chest. Draco frowned as he felt how the fellow's power had skyrocketed into insane levels, far beyond his previous forms. 

  　　As such, Draco directly entered his Horned Demon True Body. Once Ben 10,000 sensed his opponent's power level, he reconised that this would be no easy foe. As such, he decided to take the initiative and charged at Draco like a bullet, punching out skillfully. 

  　　Draco met the punch head-on, and a clash of green light and red light occurred when their fists hit each other. The two were startled to see that they were evenly matched, their minds roaring that it should be impossible. Ben 10,000 because 'Ultimate Ben' was his strongest form that had defeated all enemies with ease, and Draco because this was his bloodline transformation, not the system one. He was not limited by stats, but Bloodline Energy and skill over his bloodline. 

  　　The two decided to throw more blows, testing each other out to find to their dismay that they could no longer reject reality, they really were on par with each other. The two separated and sized each other up coldly, realizing that this would not be an easy fight. 

  　　It was one thing for their casual power to match up, but what about their full power and hidden trump cards? How could they be sure it would be enough to shut down the opponent? 

  　　Draco grinned and burned Bloodline Energy, summoning his 9 Demon Lords. All of them knelt down to Draco with the exemption of Paimon who he had stopped since she was heavily pregnant. 

  　　Despite being in the middle of a match in the Death Arena, he had manifested a Demon throne to sit on, which looked like a black version of  Eva's Heavenly Creator throne. 

  　　After all, those inheritances matched each other. It was just that Draco preferred being hands-on, but when push came to shove, he could adopt the traits of a typical villain and throw subordinates at the enemy. 

  　　Draco sat despotically in the throne and pointed to Ben 10,000. "Kill him." 

  　　The Demon Lords roared their acknowledgment and charged at Ben 10,000 who was shocked for a brief moment. Nevertheless, he had fought Demons before, so he knew their weaknesses and was easily able to weave through the 8 present Demon Lords' attacks. 

  　　However, he faced difficulty managing both Baal and Asmodeus, who had a slew of abilities that made them be above the others. Even the other 6 had various special abilities and demonic natures that caused Ben 10,000 trouble. 

  　　After all, Demons had a racial advantage over humans, and most of their arts were designed to work on humans, even more than their fatal enemies, Angels. That was precisely why humanity needed Angels to save and protect them, because demon arts were 'critical hit, super effective' on humans while human methods were 'not very effective' on Demons. 

  　　Draco watched calmly, not even summoning the Demon Gods he had collected from the Martial Spirit World. Those fellows were slightly weaker than the Demon Lords, outside those floors, being around the Demon King level in terms of the Main Plane standard, despite their imposing name. 

  　　If they were added, Ben 10,000 would be drowned to death. However, Draco knew he was hiding one fatal trump card, one alien that was akin to Eva, a God with no limits. 

  　　However, that alien had some severe and annoying restrictions, so it wouldn't work unless Ben was in a critical situation. In order to prevent such an annoying outcome, Draco had to cull the fellow faster than he would be able to react. 

  　　With Master Control, it only took him a second to switch over, so the killing strike would have to hit him in under one second. This would be tough since Ultimate Ben had the same reaction speed as Horned Demon Draco who was fast as the Flash in certain aspects. 

  　　However, Draco could never have expected that Ben would suddenly roar and blow all the demons assaulting him away with a shockwave. 

  　　"Enough!" 

  　　He then switched directly to an alien that looked like it had a galaxy of stars in its body, looking just like Eva's former Void form. This alien stood in place, but Draco could imagine the fierce debate going on within. 

  　　Immediately, he resummoned all his Demons and canceled his Horned Demon True Body. He then appeared before Alien X and narrowed his eyes. 

  　　"I'm not going to waste time since I know nothing works on you. However, there is one thing I have an abundance of that should." Draco smirked as black miasma roiled around his body. 

  　　First, Draco manifested a blue glow around his body as he connected to the mindscape of Ben 10,000. Here, he appeared in a starry expanse where two green faces, one female and one male, were arguing with a floating Ben 10,000. 

  　　When all three saw him, they were shocked. Draco simply smiled and waved. 

  　　"Do you understand the threat we are under now?!" Ben 10,000 roared, but it was too late. While the other two faces were panicking and wanted to make a decision along with him, the Draco outside their two bodies spread his hands and bathed Aline X in a shower of pure Destruction Energy. 

  　　One could only hear the screams of three voices, Ben, Serena the female face and Bellicus the male face, as Alien X was slowly disintegrated into nothing. As a celestialsapien and a pinnacle species of any universe, it was invulnerable to almost everything and even Destruction Energy needed time to break it down. 

  　　That allowed them to feel the pain of being destroyed piece by piece, something that was usually impossible to experience since Destruction Energy simply disintegrated. You simply won't feel it no matter what. 

  　　Given the intensity and sheer agony in the screams, even Draco shuddered. He wondered for the first time if Destruction Energy really was so terrible. 

  　　Qiong Qi and Clarent just stood at the back with widely opened jaws that almost hit the ground. When they saw Draco turn to them, they coughed and looked away, not wanting to seem ignorant. 

  　　Draco snorted and left the floor with the two idiots, the crowd having long gone silent as what they had thought to be impossible had actually occurred.

  　　Once back, the trio decided not to take a break and jump right into the next one. Who would be their enemy this time, they wondered?
