Scene 1: The Grim Reaper's Attack on Umineko
In the ever-chaotic Umineko universe, Bernkastel, the Witch of Miracles, continues to maintain control over her domain. Her intelligence and manipulative nature make her an extraordinarily powerful entity. However, when The Grim Reaper arrives with his overwhelming power and intent to add yet another soul to his collection, he underestimates the power of Bernkastel.
Grim Reaper: (smiling darkly) "You are but another piece in the puzzle, Bernkastel. Your soul will be mine."
Bernkastel's eyes gleam with cold defiance.
Bernkastel: (mocking) "You believe you can take my soul, Grim Reaper? I am the Witch of Miracles. No one can control me."
She unleashes a devastating wave of miracles, manipulating the very fabric of fate and reality to trap the Grim Reaper in an unbreakable loop, forcing him to experience countless defeats. For a moment, it seems like victory is in her grasp.
Grim Reaper: (struggling, but laughing darkly) "You are powerful, Bernkastel... but even you cannot defeat me forever."
Before Bernkastel can land the final blow, a massive shadow looms over her. The ground shakes as a new, overwhelming presence enters the scene. Hajun, the Lord of Destruction, steps into the battle, his monstrous aura more than enough to challenge even the Witch of Miracles.
Hajun: (coldly) "You waste your time, Grim Reaper. Let me handle this."
Hajun's power explodes with unmatched ferocity. The air crackles as he rips apart the battlefield with mere gestures, destroying Bernkastel's illusions and forcing her to her knees. With a single, effortless strike, Hajun shatters the reality Bernkastel had woven.
Bernkastel: (gasping) "Impossible... you..."
Hajun: (grinning cruelly) "You're weak, Bernkastel. You thought you could face him?"
The Grim Reaper seizes the opportunity, using his dark powers to drain Bernkastel's soul. He absorbs her essence, gaining a surge of power that leaves him more formidable than before. Her body crumbles into dust, nothing more than a lingering trace of a once-mighty force.
Grim Reaper: (feeling the surge of power) "With every soul I consume, I grow stronger. Soon, no one will be able to stand against me."

Scene 2: Omni Voyagers' Strategic Planning
Elsewhere, the Omni Voyagers are busy strategizing on how to counter the Grim Reaper's growing strength. Their team is growing stronger with each recruit, but they know they are still not enough to face the Grim Reaper and his forces head-on. They gather in their base, discussing their next steps.
Draco: (looking at the map of the multiverse) "We have strong allies, but the Grim Reaper is gaining too much power. We need to outsmart him, not just overpower him."
MaxedInfinite: "True. His army is enormous, and now he has even more strength after taking Bernkastel's soul. We need someone who can tip the scales in our favor."
Himothy: (smirking) "I have a suggestion. What if we recruit Sinbad? With his knowledge and the power of the Sacred Palace, he could be the key to turning the tide."
Draco: (nodding) "Sinbad is a king, and his experience is unparalleled. If he joins us, his influence and power could give us a significant advantage."
Wang Ling: (calmly) "We've faced formidable enemies before, but Sinbad brings something unique. His command over the dungeons and the Sacred Palace would be invaluable."
Jin Woo: "I agree. His power is immense, and with the Sacred Palace, his resources are vast. It's worth the risk."
With their minds made up, the Omni Voyagers prepare to head to the Magi universe to seek out Sinbad and convince him to join their cause. They know that this recruitment mission could be their most important yet.

Scene 3: Recruiting Sinbad
The Omni Voyagers arrive in the Magi universe, entering the magnificent Sacred Palace where Sinbad resides. The palace is a marvel of magical architecture, towering over the land, surrounded by mystical energies and immense power.
Sinbad stands before them, his regal presence commanding attention.
Sinbad: (eyeing the group) "I've heard of your exploits, Omni Voyagers. What brings you to my domain?"
Draco: "Sinbad, we need your help. The Grim Reaper is amassing an unstoppable army. His forces are growing stronger with every soul he consumes, and soon he'll threaten not just our world, but all worlds. We need your power and your knowledge to defeat him."
Sinbad raises an eyebrow, intrigued but cautious.
Sinbad: "The Grim Reaper, you say? I've faced my share of powerful foes, but this... this sounds like a war on a scale I haven't seen before. What do you want from me?"
MaxedInfinite: "Your leadership, your experience, and the power of the Sacred Palace. With it, we can counter the Grim Reaper's army. Your dungeons, your magics—they could turn the tide in our favor."
Sinbad considers this for a moment. His eyes shift toward the vast horizon beyond the Sacred Palace, as if weighing the cost of involvement.
Sinbad: (smirking) "Very well. I have no love for those who would threaten the peace I've built. I'll join your cause, but know this—I don't fight for just anyone. My loyalty isn't easily earned."
Draco: (grinning) "We understand. We're prepared to prove ourselves to you. With your strength, we'll stop the Grim Reaper together."
Sinbad, with his vast knowledge of magic, dungeons, and leadership, agrees to join the Omni Voyagers. The Sacred Palace and its powerful resources now belong to their cause.

Scene 4: Grim Reaper's Power Continues to Grow
Meanwhile, in the World of Void, the Grim Reaper is basking in the newfound power he has gained from consuming Bernkastel's soul. His army grows even more menacing, reaching a staggering 101,000,000 soldiers. But his hunger for power is insatiable, and he knows that his next target must be even stronger beings.
Grim Reaper: (smiling cruelly) "This is only the beginning. I will devour more souls until I become unstoppable. No one will be able to challenge me."
Hajun: (standing beside him) "The Omni Voyagers think they can stop us. They don't know the true extent of our power."
But even as the Grim Reaper speaks of his victory, he knows that the Omni Voyagers are assembling a team strong enough to challenge him. Sinbad's arrival with his Sacred Palace could be the game-changer he feared.

Scene 5: Preparing for War
The Omni Voyagers regroup with Sinbad, the newest member of their squad. With his strategic mind, power, and the resources of the Sacred Palace, they now have a better chance of standing against the Grim Reaper's forces.
Sinbad: (grinning) "We've got a lot to prepare. The road ahead won't be easy. But with our combined strength, we can make it."
MaxedInfinite: "The battle for the multiverse is coming. We'll strike when the time is right."
The Omni Voyagers are now more united and stronger than ever, ready to face the Grim Reaper's growing army. The time for action is drawing near.

Allies will be tested, enemies will rise, and the very fabric of reality will tremble. This is not just a battle for survival—it is a battle for everything.
