Boom!
Time was rapidly passing by, and the battle between Piccolo, Trunks, and Cell was becoming increasingly intense.
As they watched the fight unfold, the once confident faces of two Dr. Gero began to show signs of nervousness.
“Damn it, how did Piccolo and Trunks become so powerful in just one year?” exclaimed Dr. Gero.
Scanning using the built-in Scouter in his body, it showed that Piccolo’s current Power Level had already surpassed 500 million, and to their surprise, Trunks had not only become a Super Saiyan 2 but had also exceeded 600 million in strength!
With the two of them teaming up, along with Android Lazuli, even Cell seemed to be struggling to keep up.
However, Future Dr. Gero remained calm. He patted the shoulder of his other self and said, “Don’t worry, this level of power is well within our calculations!”
Sure enough, at that moment, Cell, who seemed to be overwhelmed by the combined strength of the three, suddenly grinned and said, “Impressive. After attaining my Perfect Form, you three are the strongest opponents I have encountered. It seems I’ll have to get serious!”
“What?”
Suddenly, lightning began to crackle around Cell’s body, and his aura expanded like a volcanic eruption.
“How is this possible? He’s evolving!”
Feeling the immense and terrifying aura emanating from Cell, Piccolo momentarily lost his fighting spirit.
At that moment, a sense of despair washed over him once again.
Old Kami’s premonition had indeed been correct. This guy called Cell was truly a monster!
The current aura he possessed almost rivaled the full-powered Lin Chen that Piccolo encountered on Planet Namek back then….No, it’s probably even more powerful than Lin Chen back then!
Lazuli wore a look of astonishment because the current Cell had unexpectedly transformed into his Super Perfect form.
But as far as she knew, this form was something Cell had only grasped after being revived. How could this Cell effortlessly control it already?
Cell had a smirk on his face as he pointed to his head.
“It seems you’re surprised, huh? Let me tell you the truth. My body contains cells from all the strongest warriors in my world, including the Saiyans! And the current form I have is a Super Saiyan transformation that I developed myself!”
“While it may not be as extravagant as a Super Saiyan, my Power Level has already doubled compared to before!”
Almost as soon as Cell finished speaking, his figure blurred.
And when he reappeared, he was already standing next to Piccolo while his claw had pierced through Piccolo’s body.
It wasn’t until Piccolo saw Cell’s claw that he realized he had been attacked.
“So…so strong!”
Seeing Piccolo fall powerlessly, Trunks exclaimed, “Mr. Piccolo!”
With a loud roar, Trunks charged towards Cell.
But Trunks’ fist struck only an afterimage.
Trunks’ eyes widened in disbelief, but at that moment, Cell’s elbow descended from above, instantly knocking Trunks to the ground.
“We need to retreat. The current Cell is beyond their capabilities to handle.”
Android 16 picked up Android 17 with one hand and Android 18 with the other.
By now, both Android 17 and 18 had awakened, but they were still catching their breath and unable to move on their own.
I’m sorry, but we have no choice.
Apologizing to Piccolo and the others in his hearts, Android 16 immediately used his fastest speed to try to escape from the scene.
However, just as he took off, he saw Cell blocking his path.
Cell moved so quickly that he didn’t even notice.
“How is this possible?”
Android 16 turned around and saw that Lazuli hadn’t noticed that Cell had already left and chased after him. She was still searching everywhere for Cell’s presence.
When he turned back, Android 16 saw Cell with his arms crossed, giving him a faint smile.
“You useless piece of junk. Where do you think you’re taking them?”
With that, Cell’s eyes suddenly lit up, and a beam of light pierced through Android 16’s left arm.
Next, a beam of light followed, and Android 16 lost his right arm.
Cell’s eyes lit up one last time, and Android 16 saw in astonishment that even his own body had been cut in half and fell to the ground.
Unable to move, Android 16 could only watch helplessly as Android 17 and 18 floated in mid-air under Cell’s control, his tail flying toward them.
“Stop!”
At that moment, a voice called out from a distance. Lazuli flew over from the distance, but while in mid-air, she was restrained by Cell’s telekinesis.
The disparity between the two sides had become too great.
Even Dr. Gero began to feel a sense of fear.
“The other me, Cell has become this strong already. Do we really want to make it even stronger? Aren’t you afraid it will betray us?”
“Don’t worry, the other me. Every Android has programmed obedience. They cannot betray me.”
Cell slowly moved Lazuli in front of him. Frowning, he looked at her and then smiled, “I almost forgot, you’re actually Android 18, right? I wonder if absorbing you will have the same effect. Since you’ve been coming closer, let’s start with you!”
Saying that, Cell’s long tail moved towards the top of Lazuli’s head, the mouth resembling a suction cup, ready to swallow her.
But just then, a hand grabbed Cell’s tail.
Snap!
Cell’s tail was once again severed.
“Who?”
Cell exclaimed in surprise, retracting the remaining half of his tail, glaring angrily at the person in front of him.
Appearing before him were two Saiyans who seemed to materialize out of thin air.
Cell had no recollection of one of them, but his memory bank was full of the other person’s information.
“Lin Chen? Are you the Saiyan King, Lin Chen?”
Lin Chen didn’t reply. Instead, he turned his head to look at Lazuli. A silver light flashed in his eyes, and then Lazuli realized she could move again.
“Lin Chen! Trunks and the others…”
“Broly, watch over Lazuli for me.”
Saying that, Lin Chen instantly teleported to the side of Piccolo and Trunks, giving each of them a Senzu Bean.
Then, he looked up at the two terrified Dr. Gero standing on the side.
“I didn’t expect you to actually come back from the future. Are you here to offer your heads?”
“Lin… Lin Chen!”
Dr. Gero’s face was filled with fear. Cell still hadn’t absorbed Android 17 and 18 of this world yet. According to their calculations, Cell still couldn’t handle Lin Chen!
Damn it, why did he show up at this moment?
