| — G5 upon spotting Child Emperor. |
Child Emperor vs. G5 is the battle between the S-Class hero Child Emperor and the robot of The Organization: Machine God G5.
Prelude[]
Child Emperor's death stare
Waganma and Child Emperor are making their way out of the Monster Association Headquarters when they run into G5.
Battle[]
Child Emperor notices a shadowy figure approaching from a nearby corridor. Cautiously, he deploys a radio-controlled sentry to assess the threat, knowing he must be extra careful with Waganma nearby. As the sentry reaches its target, it fires a large energy burst, but the attack proves ineffective, and the sentry is swiftly destroyed. The figure steps into view, revealing itself as G5. Recognizing Child Emperor as a hero, G5 states that introductions are not necessary since it will eliminate him immediately.
Child Emperor trapping G5 with his Bug Basket-Kun
In response, Child Emperor pulls out a flute and activates a device designed specifically for machine-type Mysterious Beings, the Enemy Machine Disabling Device: Bug Basket-Kun. Upon playing the flute, four rockets eject from his backpack and embed themselves into the ground, forming a square around G5. Wires extend between them, creating a high-voltage barrier. As electricity surges through the enclosure, Child Emperor explains to Waganma that the device also emits signals to shut the robot down. Impressed, Waganma expresses a desire to take the robot home. However, to Child Emperor's shock, G5 effortlessly destroys the device with a single swing of its sword. Now realizing the extent of his opponent's power, Child Emperor warns Waganma to step back as he prepares to engage the Demon-level machine.
Mad Dog Underdog Cerberus charges at G5
As G5 approaches, Child Emperor acknowledges that he is burning through items fast, yet knows it can't be helped. From his backpack, three small spheres drop onto the floor and quickly transform into identical Underdog Men. On his command, they combine, with one kneeling atop the others, to form Mad Dog Underdog Cerberus. Waganma, captivated by the fused robot's intimidating presence, remarks on its strength, though Child Emperor remains skeptical.
Vicious Digging Doggie Spinning Punches
G5, unimpressed, expresses its disappointment at being compared to a low-level artificial intelligence while unsheathing another sword. Mad Dog growls aggressively as Child Emperor retrieves another gadget from his backpack, a handgun disguised as a pencil case. Firing several rockets, he reveals their purpose: instead of being incendiary, they release a sticky residue meant to trap monsters. Meanwhile, Mad Dog spins its arms rapidly, preparing to unleash its Vicious Digging Doggie Spinning Punches. Waganma eagerly watches, but before he can see the fight unfold, Child Emperor tugs on his collar and leads him away. The two children retreat, leaving the machines to battle.
Aftermath[]
Child Emperor and Waganma retreat while G5 is distracted and they run back into Phoenix Man's corpse from one of Child Emperor's earlier battles.
Trivia[]
