Celestialsapiens should scale above the Chrono Navigator according to Professor Paradox's Statements
Professor Paradox and Azmuth repeatedly call the Celestialsapiens the "greatest power in the universe." Professor Paradox goes as far as to say they are omnipotent, meaning they possess strongest power he's ever seen which includes his Chrono Navigator.

Reasoning:
We will follow the rules for Statements. Dwayne McDuffie even said "Canon is what happens on the show, not what I (the writers) say." This supports our site rule that writer statements can't contradict the published source material and must be supported by it.
In-Show Statements
I honestly think scaling from the chrononavigator as opposed to the time bomb is a legit possibility, but that depends what exactly Paradox's remarks on the celestiasapiens was. This side of the arguments wasn't explored nearly as much as the time bomb scaling
Yeah, I do feel this makes a case for scaling to the navigator. If Paradox considers Celestialsapiens to be the greatest source of power then he would at least be placing them above a device he carries with him all the time. Also the forge of creation exists outside the universe to begin with, so the statement couldn't be referring to it being the greatest power within a single universe, more likely it is the greatest power Paradox has encountered anywhere

In-Show Statements
- Ben 10 Alien Force - X = Ben + 2
- Serena: We're the most powerful being in the universe. We change the very nature of space and time.
- Ben 10 Ultimate Alien - Map of Infinity
- Azmuth: If Aggregor can reassemble the map, he can travel to the forge of creation and gain the greatest power in the universe.
- Azmuth: He erected a chronal randomization barrier that hides the forge of creation from everyone except the forge's inhabitants and whoever has the map.
- Ben 10 Ultimate Alien - The Forge of Creation
- Azmuth: Trivialities. While you did it about saving mere planets Aggregor obtained the means to travel to the forge of creation and obtain the greatest power in the universe!
- Azmuth knows all alien DNA in the codon stream, and he still calls Celestialsapiens the greatest power.
- Also, it's officially published that Alien X is his most powerful alien, contradicting the previous writer statement saying that he wasn't.
- Azmuth: It could work. Alien X can do anything.
- Paradox: It is the source of the universe's greatest power. It's where ideas become real.
- Paradox: Aggregor intends to absorb the abilities of a newborn Celestialsapien. Should he succeed, he will become omnipotent.
- Azmuth: Trivialities. While you did it about saving mere planets Aggregor obtained the means to travel to the forge of creation and obtain the greatest power in the universe!
- Ben 10 Omniverse - Ben Again
- Professor Paradox: Eon wants nothing less than absolute power over everything all timelines, all alternate realities everything.
- Eo: You are a timid fool, Paradox. Just because you never took full advantage of the Chrono Navigator's power doesn't mean I shouldn't
- Professor Paradox: Yes, but in anyone else's hands but mine it could cause irreparable damage to the time-stream or destroy all of time and causality itself.
- Eo: Merely the key to dominion over all space and time. And thanks to you, It is now mine! [ Laughs evilly ] It's amazing. Every time-line, every alternate reality, I can see them all and they're all mine!
- Professor Paradox: On the contrary, I warned you. Stop this now or all of existence will be destroyed!
- Professor Paradox: Without Eon to anchor them all, the separate eras of time are progressively snapping back into place.
- Ben 10 Omniverse - Universe VS Tennyson (Even after the display of the Chrono Navigator, the writers once again have a character refer to the Celestialsapians as Omnipotent. To my knowledge, "omnipotent" has only been used in the show in reference to the species. For obvious reasons, we dont take the wording literally.)
- Chadzmuth: We all know that Celestialsapiens change the universe as often as my client changes his shirt. Okay, bad example, but my point, and I do have one, is that Celestialsapiens change the universe all the time. Even First Thinker Azmuth's voice and appearance has changed on at least three occasions. For all we known Celestialsapiens are out there changing the universe at this very moment. I put it to you ladies and gentle aliens and not so gentle aliens, is it right to hold one scrawny little human
- Ben: Hey
- Chadzmuth: responsible for the misdeeds of an entire species of omnipotent beings? I say nay. Nay I say. Now the magic happens.
- The "universe's greatest power" statement shouldn't apply to objects.
- From Andytrenom: The argument that the statement won't account for weapons is extremely flawed. The statement never talks about the strongest person, it talks about the strongest power so assuming it only refers to an individual's stats and leaves out weapons or is completely baseless.
- No one said it was a weapon, and it doesn't even matter in the first place. Power is power. Influence on the world around you. The Navigator at full potential is multiversal for giving absolute control over all timelines. Eon can anchor timelines to himself and move them out of place. With said influence over all the timelines, the user runs the risk of destroying all of them as well. It's possible for someone to use it at it's full potential, be multiversal, and not cause everything to be destroyed. In the same episode, Paradox distinctly differentiates "maybe" and "won't" for Clockwork synchronization
- If Alien X was that strong, why didn't Ben consider using him against Eon when he was about to destroy everything with the Chrono Navigator?
- From Andytrenom: Being done to look cool won't invalidate in-universe explanations if they exist. But if instead of the narrative itself giving an explanation you have someone inserting their own explanation into the narrative then that's another matter. The problem is that you're taking Alien X not being mentioned in a situation as evidence that Ben didn't think Alien X was powerful enough to solve the situation, when the simple fact is that the episode just never bothered to reference Alien X or tie in his existence to the plot. Belicus and Serena being willing to allow usage of Alien X, Ben understanding this and being prepared to use Alien X, and Ben concluding Alien X wasn't powerful enough to fix the situation, all of this literally comes from an absence of Alien X in the episode. This isn't judging context and narrative, it's just making up explanations when an official answer isn't given why certain plot devices don't get involved in a plot line doesn't always have an in universe explanation, and it's better to not assume they have when what you're working with is the absence of an explanation
- Isn't Atomic X supposed to be stronger than Alien X, and he got destroyed by the Chronosapien Time Bomb?
- Atomic X is neither Alien X nor stronger than Alien X. In this thread, we go over reasons for his profile downgrade.
- Atomic X doesn't possess Serena and Bellicus for more autonomy. With Serena and Bellicus are gone, there is the tradeoff of decreased powers.
- Atomic X is not countering Maltruants Time Manipulation even though Alien X can "change the very nature of space and time."
- Atomic X is still stronger than Atomix, but not as strong as Alien X.
- Atomic X doesn't possess Serena and Bellicus for more autonomy. With Serena and Bellicus are gone, there is the tradeoff of decreased powers.
- In this thread, we discuss why "Not only was Atomic X unable to stop it, it would be nonsensical for Ben 10,000 to utilize an alien that is infinitely weaker to stop a multiversal weapon" is an inaccurate statement. This does not affect Tier in any way. Dark649 and Antvasima currently agree.
- None of the Bens knew about the Time Bomb.
- Atomic X is neither Alien X nor stronger than Alien X. In this thread, we go over reasons for his profile downgrade.
