Time War

The Time War is a conflict that expands throughout space and time. Most beings are unaware of the conflict or when the war took or takes place.

Prelude
The Time War was first mentioned in Ben Again and it was referenced by Professor Paradox and Ben 10,000 from their point of view.

Ben 10,000 further in the future takes part in the war. During the war, the Chronosapiens had gone rogue and temporal beasts on a cross-dimensional rampage, causing the time war to escalate. Ben 10,000 mentions a being known as Maltruant.

Ben 10,000 traveled through space-time looking for Professor Paradox asking the present Ben for possible directions. Professor Paradox had in some point in time will enter into the time war. It is currently unknown how the war is turning out.

The effects of the time war forced Professor Paradox to take a more active role in temporal affairs and formally called it open warfare on the space-time continuum. With the time war ongoing, he had to camouflage his Chrono-navigator as his prosthetic right arm he lost recently for safekeeping.

The Beginning
The first instance of the time war abrupts into Ben's timeline in Fight at the Museum when Maltruant sent Subdora and Exo-Skull to steal the Key to Time from a Museum. Their mission succeeded.

Introduction of Maltruant
It is revealed that Maltruant is a Chronosapien and there was once a time war before. Maltruant sought to regain his power over the timestreams and restart the time war. He hired Dr. Psychobos, who he thinks is the second smartest being in the universe to repair him, knowing Azmuth would never help him in his acts of evil.
