I had to blink a few times to digest the words that Princess Augustine was saying.

"She wants to bring my big bro back to her planet and make him King of a kingdom called Shra-Gaz? And get her royal brother who is actually the current king to step down in the process? Insanity." I thought to myself incredulously.

"No. That's too much. I do not need, nor do I want to be king. I don't even want to go to your planet. As I mentioned before, I still have many things to do here! My wife, my responsibilities are here." Bruce Pang said firmly.

"Don't you want to spend time with me back in Shra-Gaz, pops?" Princess Augustine pouted cutely.

"Haha. The answer to that question, surprisingly, is a resounding no." Bruce Pang said with a patient laugh.

"Fine. I guess the old saying is right. The reason you don't love me is because you don't know me yet. Very well. I will stay with you here then, and spend more time with you. I will make you and mommy love me, and then when I ask you to return to Shra-Gaz with me next time, you both will have no choice but to agree! Mwa ha ha ha!" Princess Augustine laughed sinisterly with an overdose of cuteness.

"Sure. Do that. In fact, while you're here, you can help your old man's country by physically strengthening our citizens and sharing your knowledge with us." Bruce Pang chuckled in a pleased tone.

"Why don't I just kill all your enemies for you? I can do that very easily as soon as I recover to my full strength." Princess Augustine said very casually.

"Yeah. Why not? When will you recover?" Bruce Pang asked.

"I will probably fully recover in thre-" Before she could finish her words, she suddenly collapsed in a dead faint.

"Augustine!!" Bruce Pang shouted in shock.

At that moment, a fearsome, metallic voice reeking of chilling fury thundered loudly around us.

"You have had enough fun with my treasure, little thieves. Now, give it back to me, and I will give you a clean death."

Without hesitation, I cast out my resonance and immediately discovered that somehow, the fearsome root-like machine that had attached itself to the clam where Princess Augustine was sleeping in had stealthily caught up to us, and had already completely surrounded us in a three kilometer radius!

It was on the ocean bed directly beneath us and its root-like tentacles formed a massive cage around us.

If it was allowed to unleash its fearsome life draining suction on us, there was no doubt that we would die.

We would not be able to reach the edge of the three kilometer radius on time, and even if we could, we would probably need more time to break free of its tentacles, and time was something we did not have.

"Damn it." I cursed with a sinking feeling in my heart.

"G-Drake, attack that robot's main body!" Bruce Pang ordered calmly.

G-Drake immediately dived down and shot towards the damned root's main body.

"You won't give her up? Then die." The fearsome voice rumbled loudly.

"It's charging its power! G-Drake! Energy beam its body, now!!" I yelled.

Graahhhhhh!!!

G-Drake fired off a quick attack on the root's body.

BOOMM!!

The crackling energy beam smashed onto the metallic body of the root with surprising strength and caused a huge chunk to melt away.

"It's body is weak!" I exclaimed loudly in excitement as hope suddenly bloomed in my heart. "Keep shooting energy beams at it! Make your way down and let's kill the bastard!"

Graaahhhh!!!

G-Drake fired off another energy beam. However, before that energy beam could hit the root's body, a burst of power suddenly exploded from it!

VROOOSSHHHH!!!

A strange vital force crashed onto the energy beam and easily neutralized it. At the same time, I could sense that the damage which G-Drake had caused early had been completely repaired!

"That machine had successfully incorporated the regenerative power of flesh based life forms into its existence as a machine!" I gasped half in horror at the troublesomeness of our new enemy, and half in excitement over what seemed like a massive breakthrough in technology.

"Get close to it and physically rip it apart." Bruce Pang commanded. "Justin, prepare to exit the pod and attack it with all your strength.

"Ok! G-Drake! Keep firing energy beams at it while you close the distance!!" I shouted as I leapt up from my seat and moved to the secondary hatch.

Boom! Boom! Bam!! Boom! Boom! Bam!!! 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

Just like that, G-Drake fired off energy beam after energy beam at the root's body, and it unleashed wave after wave of vital force at us as it healed itself and tried to keep us at bay.

But its rate of fire was much too slow compared to G-Drake's, and it was unable to keep us from closing.

Within a minute, G-Drake was finally able to sink his claws into the rooth's main body!

I exited the pod and shot out towards the root's body too.

However, just as I landed on it, I sensed that its many root branches were actually speeding towards us! It would reach G-Drake within five seconds!

"I have to kill this damned thing in five seconds!!" I thought desperately and gathered my full strength before launching a massive punch!!!

WHAMM!!

My entire fist smashed the root body's metal armor apart and pierced deep into its body! However, I was unable to find any vital organs. There was nothing but mush in it!

I withdrew my fist, aimed at another part of its body and launched a more powerful punch than before.

WHAAAMMMMM!!!!

Once again, my fist pierced into its body! But once again, I found nothing but mush!!

"Noo!!" I shouted in horror as I noticed the countless root branches shoot towards G-Drake!

Stab! Stab! Stab!!!

The first few branches finally reached G-Drake and managed to pierce into it's body!!
