"Cough, cough, cough..."
"Chi-Chi, Gokumi, and everyone else, are you all okay?"
"Y-yes, we're fine."
Covered in dust and debris, Yuujin, Android 16, and the girls, including Gokumi, climbed out of the rubble.
With a loud crash, Super Android 18 landed beside Yuujin.
Although no one was seriously injured, the self-destruction of the two mini-Cells had successfully delayed them, buying time for their father, Cell, to recover.
Looking at the fully regenerated Cell in the distance, everyone's expressions turned grim.
"I'll go kill him again!"
With a cold glare, Super Android 18 spoke icily, ready to rush over and obliterate Cell once more.
"Wait, something's off about him."
Yuujin stopped Super Android 18, his voice cautious.
They had already missed the best opportunity to destroy Cell, and rushing now would be pointless. Instead, Cell's strange behavior caught Yuujin's attention.
The girls, including Gokumi, also noticed. After regenerating, Cell wasn't roaring in anger or charging at them in a frenzy for revenge. Instead, he just stood there, motionless and seemingly dazed.
Not only that, but whether due to energy depletion or deliberate suppression, no one could sense Cell's energy anymore!
However, neither Yuujin, Android 16, nor the girls dared to underestimate Cell. His body contained the cells of a Saiyan from another world, and every time he regenerated, he became even more terrifyingly powerful. His current state only made Yuujin and the others more uneasy and wary.
"What's wrong with him?"
Chi-Chi couldn't help but ask. Just then, Cell, who had been standing there like a statue, finally moved.
Instead of charging at Yuujin and the others, Cell slowly floated into the air.
He clenched his fists, bent his body slightly, and then—
A golden aura erupted from his body!
"Ahhh!!!"
"Ahhhhh!!!!!"
Under the stunned gazes of Yuujin and the girls, Cell let out a deafening roar, and his energy began to skyrocket at an absurd rate!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!!
The entire ground began to tremble, and the sky gradually lost its color. Despite the absence of clouds, lightning crackled and flashed across the heavens.
Not only that, but Cell's body, originally covered in green armor with black patches, began to glow brilliantly. The black patches shimmered and seemed to be transforming into gold.
"C-could it be?!!!"
Realizing something, Yuujin's face turned pale.
Saiyans could transform into stronger forms like Super Saiyans. Since Cell had the cells of a Saiyan from another world, could he be transforming into a Super Cell?
Heavens!!!!!
Cell's energy continued to surge uncontrollably, and the power he released began to cause catastrophic phenomena across the entire planet.
Massive tsunamis rose in the oceans, instantly swallowing countless coastal villages and cities.
Dormant volcanoes erupted one after another, spewing molten lava as if roaring at the sky.
Earthquakes and floods ravaged the planet, relentlessly destroying Earth's ecosystems and civilizations.
The once peaceful and beautiful Earth had turned into a terrifying, dark hell in the blink of an eye!
Countless people cried out, wept, and struggled, but it was all meaningless. In the face of such apocalyptic disasters, their existence was simply too insignificant.
They could only be mercilessly destroyed and consumed!!!
On a distant planet in the galaxy, a young girl stood atop a mountain valley.
The girl had a slender figure, a delicate face, and wore a beautiful headband.
However, her expression seemed somewhat vacant, as if she were a bit slow.
At a certain moment, the girl seemed to sense something. She looked up toward the direction of Earth in the distant starry sky, and a towering aura erupted from her body.
"What's wrong, Broly?"
Noticing the girl's unusual behavior, a man with a scarred face and a missing eye walked over, frowning as he asked.
"There's a powerful energy... over there."
The girl replied, her voice soft and gentle.
"A powerful energy?"
"Hmph, no matter how strong, it can't possibly be stronger than you."
"Broly, my daughter, you are the legendary Super Saiyan who appears once every thousand years. You are the strongest warrior in this universe!"
"Don't worry about that guy. Let's go. We're heading to the next planet."
With a cold snort, the man spoke and then walked toward a nearby spaceship.
"Yes, Father."
After one last glance in the direction of Earth, the girl dissipated her aura and followed him.
With a loud roar, the massive spaceship shot into the sky, leaving behind a silent, lifeless planet littered with bones...
"Idiots, idiots!"
"Yuujin, Gokumi, what are you all doing?!"
"Cell's energy has reached my planet! If this continues, not only Earth but the entire universe will be in danger. Hurry up and find a way to destroy him!"
The voice of North Kai suddenly echoed in the minds of Yuujin and the girls.
Having been observing the battle on Earth, North Kai couldn't sit still any longer. Watching Cell evolve and grow stronger again, this time to such an extreme degree, even he was growing anxious, his voice filled with urgency.
"Yuujin, Chi-Chi, it's Lord Kai!"
"Lord Kai, long time no see! How are you?"
"Idiot Gokumi, I'm not doing well at all! Hurry up and find a way to deal with that monster Cell!"
"Lord Kai, we're trying our best."
"Alright, alright, Lord Kai, we don't have time right now. Let's talk later."
Gokumi cheerfully greeted North Kai, while Yuujin broke out in a cold sweat. After a few words, he cut off the communication.
Meanwhile, as Yuujin and the others were talking to North Kai, Cell, still floating in the air, let out a final roar. His energy had reached its peak:
"Ahhhhh..."
"Ha!!!!!"
The golden aura gradually stabilized, and the black patches on his body turned completely gold. His entire appearance became even more dazzling and majestic.
Without a doubt, Cell had undergone yet another transformation!
"Ahh... ahhh..."
Even the girls, including Gokumi, were left speechless, their mouths hanging open in shock.
If the previous Cell was just the "Perfect Cell," then perhaps he should now be called "Super Cell" or "Golden Cell."
He was too powerful. The energy radiating from him was overwhelming!
Yuujin, standing at the front, was equally shocked and horrified, his heart sinking to the depths.
Despite all their efforts, they hadn't managed to destroy Cell. Instead, he had regenerated and grown stronger time and time again, to the point where the situation had spiraled out of control.
Things were heading in the worst possible direction!
