The familiar sound of a jet blast rang out. "Rover" jolted in alarm as its own energy slammed straight into its relatively tender rear end!!
Thanks to a certain unscrupulous dog lover's clever control of the gate's angle, the scorching, powerful energy bombardment achieved millimeter-level precision, without wasting a single bit!!
"Rover": ???
Struck without warning in a vital spot, "Rover," who had never heard "Chrysanthemum Remnants"... no, "Chrysanthemum Terrace," instantly stopped firing, sprang up like something in a butt-burning car meme, and let out a pained Tom scream!
"Aaaoooh-oooohhh!!"
Its cries were so utterly miserable that anyone who heard them would grieve and shed tears!

"Sit down!"
"Awooooo..."
A visible shockwave erupted with a boom, centered on "Rover's" head, sending fierce winds sweeping outward!

The towering rage that had blazed so fiercely a moment earlier was forcibly beaten down by half with Josen's iron fist. "Rover" lay in the crater it had made, shaking its head in a dizzy daze.
Suddenly, its vision blurred again. Somehow, the big bad guy who had just walloped it had appeared above its head
