Next, the Professor went to Doctor Elefun and offered to withdraw his machine, a device that could affect every robot in the city - including Astro Boy - for a mere 80 million dollars! Doctor Elefun refused to be intimidated and Professor Plenty made good his threat. He turned on the Wacky Inducer and every robot within a 100-mile radius was rendered feeble. But not Astro Boy, for at the boy's own request he was dismantled by Doctor Elefun so that he would not be a robot while the machine was operating. Once the machine stopped for a periodic shutdown, however, Astro Boy was quickly re-assembled. He knew what he had to do: find the machine hidden somewhere in the vast city, and destroy it before it destroyed him - all this in the course of two minutes. Just 120 seconds!
