Child Emperor glanced at Jackie Chan, who had broken free and was slowly closing in.
"We can't drag this out any longer!" Child Emperor's eyes sharpened as his hands flew over the control panel on the side of his backpack. "Uchiha reinforcements could arrive any moment. We have to draw him away!"
The huge metal backpack on his back gave a low mechanical hum. Armor plates on its sides and top slid open and shifted, launching three cylindrical metal containers, each about half a person's height.
Their surfaces bore cute cartoon paw prints and labels: Doggy One, Doggy Two, and Doggy Three.
"Tactical Puppet: Three-Dog Formation! Combine!"
The three metal containers unfolded the instant they hit the ground. Like transforming robots, their intricate mechanisms flipped, extended, and locked together!
The yellow dog became a sturdy torso and leg chassis. The blue dog became agile mechanical arms and a sensor array. The red dog became three fearsome heads that could turn independently, each packed with sharp alloy teeth and energy-cannon muzzles, and mounted atop the torso!
Clack! Clang! Boom!
In just three seconds, Hellhound was assembled: a combat robot over two and a half meters tall, built entirely from high-strength alloy, both ferocious and sleek.
Crimson light flared in its three pairs of eyes, and it let out a low electronic growl like a real beast!
"Awooo!"
"Hellhound, attack mode! Go!"
At Child Emperor's command, thrusters on Hellhound's back and legs erupted with blue flame. Despite its massive body, it moved with astonishing agility, hurtling toward Jackie Chan like a cannonball!
The central head opened its jaws and spewed a searing stream of plasma. A high-speed alloy chainsaw sprang from the left head's mouth, while the right fired several blinding beams from its eyes to disrupt his vision!
