War of the Worlds: Part 1

War of the Worlds: Part 1 is the the twenty-fifth episode of Ben 10: Alien Force.

Summary
Professor Paradox and Azmuth arrive on Earth to warn Ben of the approaching Highbreed fleet. Gwen and Kevin gather all the allies they've met, as well as their enemy Darkstar, to counter the threat. Meanwhile, Azmuth reveals to Ben that the Omnitrix contains the DNA of every sentient species in the galaxy, over one million in total(1,000,903), and activates the Master Control so Ben can effectively combat the Highbreed.

Plot
In space, the Highbreed fleet was seen attacking Galvan Prime and Professor Paradox came to save Azmuth the latter knew there was no point in being saved since without Galvans the univere was doomed. Professor Paradox rescued Azmuth anyway and Ben practiced soccer. Paradox came to get Ben and they went to Mr. Smoothy to meet Kevin, Gwen, and Azmuth. Paradox told them to destroy the Jumpgate to prevent the Highbreed invasion and they planned to go and take out the Jumpgate.

Azmuth told Kevin and Gwen to leave to get team-mates with Professor Paradox and in a cornfield, Alan transformed into his alien form and fought the DNAliens. Kevin, Gwen, and Professor Paradox came and Azmuth faced Ben. He wanted to tell him the truth about the Omnitrix and then the recruiting group came to find Cooper testing out his intangibility glove. He created armor wanting to come and Ben faced Azmuth the latter told him he could revive any species including the human race.

Ben was upset wanting to fight, and Azmuth tried to convince him not to. Later Kevin, Gwen, Professor Paradox, Alan, and Cooper were seen in a plumber's base where the latter was using a machine to contact Darkstar who was still trapped in the Null Void. They freed him and he was now forced to help. Meanwhile, Ben and Azmuth argued until the Galvan gave up and saw the cause Ben was fighting for. He gave commands and activated the Omnitrix's Master Control, allowing acess to all alien forms.

Allied with Gwen, Kevin, Professor Paradox, Julie, Alan, Cooper, Darkstar; they left to Los Soledad where the Highbreed were building the Jumpgate which Cooper found using cloaking field. As they reached, Ben turned into Cannonbolt, saying he felt nostalgic, and they entered the cloak field. A massive army of DNAliens came into sight and hence, an enourmous battle began.

Kevin absorbed matter and Gwen used her mana skills to fight the DNAliens. Alan turned into his Pyronite form and Julie served well as backup, transforming Ship into a battle aircraft. Cooper utilized the armour he had and Darkstar had even started to take the DNAliens' energy but Ben arrived to stop him and started using the Omnitrix to cure the weak DNAliens.

Ben tired himself out and collapsed on the ground. He was awakened and Cooper turned his suit into genetic damage reversing weapons. The battle continued to resume while inside one of the temperature-altering towers the Highbreed wanted the team killed before they entered the tower. The Highbreed unleashed the Jumpgate as the group tried to destroy it, eventually resulting in Ben using his largest alien, Way Big. In the fight between Way Big and the Jumpgate, he was severely injured and Way Big reverted back to Ben, who drifted into unconsciousness, just as the Highbreed fleet arrive on Earth.
