But before Goku agreed to that small favour, Bulma created the final clifhanger of the chapter "I also wanted to talk to you about this ...
Cell may have grown much stronger by absorbing Chaoz
As strong as you, Piccolo"
"WHAT HAVE YOU SAID?!" Everyone screamed upon hearing that incredible informational one million megaton bomb that exploded directly in their testicles (I know, I am a poet)
But despite the impact that this comment caused on our impressionable warriors, this statement also raised certain doubts, as is normal in this type of situation "Bulma, are you sure you aren't exaggerating?
Have you seen how strong he is now that he has merged with Kami?"
"Yes I know
This was the reason why I didn't want you to go to fight him...
But as always you never listen to me!" Bulma protested showing her anger in a very effusive way
At first they ignore her several times and now they doubted her
She felt insulted!
"Okay…
We are sorry" Replied the four irresponsible who left recklessly later while bowing in regret and apology before the angry Bulma
And Bulma, seeing that those four idiots at least showed some regret, continued with the explanation that our heroes skipped and that the readers didn't have time to read because the previous chapter could have been made very long and with repeated information "What I wanted to tell you is that I based our biological transformation, which improves our physique, in C-17 and C-18
But at the same time, the way in which your body converts the unlimited energy that the two of them have into Ki and distributes it throughout your body was based on Cell
Or at least in the way that he absorbs it"
"I haven't understood anything..." Goku said, who missed some technical details
However, this was something within Bulma's calculations, so she tried to simplify her explanation a bit more "So that we could continue using Ki and not have mechanical parts inside of us like the unlimited energy reactors that C-17 and C-18 carry inside...
I took Cell, or at least his theatrical base as a base
Which can obtain more power and unlimited energy without giving up his Ki through the absorption of biological components and energy reactors of C-17 and C18
Do you understand what I mean?"
"I think that…
No… " They said Goku, Ten, Roshi and Krillin at the same time, since none of them went to school as a child and they didn't know anything about mechanics and biology.
But to everyone's surprise, someone not very well versed in science, but in magic and other fantastic things, did understand Bulma's riddle, and that was Piccolo with Kami's centuries-old wisdom. "Does that mean that...
The compatibility between the humans modified by you and Cell is excessively high?"
"Exactly Piccolo!
I'm surprised that you understood it so easily" Bulma said with joy upon see sthat someone present was able to understand the conversation except for Gohan and Trunks
"I have my circumstances" Piccolo answered, who had some experience with mergers and themes of that style.
"Bulma… what are you trying to say?" Goku asked once more, who still didn't understand her or at least preferred not to have to think
"It is something very simple
When someone eats something, based on how compatible that food is with his body, he will be able to extract more energy from that food with less effort
In the same way, it will be easier for the body to process that energy and store it in each of it's cells
And Cell's absorption ability is the same" Bulma said again, this time simplifying the explanation so that even the dumbest would be able to understand.
"That means…
Are we the perfect food for Cell and that he can convert almost all of our power and energy into his when he absorbs us?" Ten Shinhan asked, terrified of the consequences of this chilling theory with real scientific knowledge
And upon hearing Ten's correct conclusion… Bulma nodded, finishing explaining why she didn't want them to approach Cell "Something like that ...
In addition, it will even be easier with you all, since he's built with your cells
It would be similar to what could happen if he devours C-17 and C-18 ...
At once…
At least his first time has been like this if we are optimistic ... and pessimistic at the same time..."
¡¡¡¡!!!!
An informational bomb that exploded again near the ass of our protagonists, who had begun to believe, understand and accept that the situation had become more complicated despite the power ups they had received
Or rather, it had become this dangerous due to having achieved a power-up in strength but not in brain
"T-the situation is so serious?" Krillin asked dumbfounded, who couldn't believe that they had screwed up so much this time
But Bulma confirmed it again "Yes, it can be ...
But… we cannot fix the past, it will be better to look for solutions in the future… "
However, this time she did it with a little more tact and without ensuring 100% that they are fucked for their fault so that they didn't feel so guilty for Chaoz's death and for having complicated the situation much more
Krillin, Muten Roshi's face, and especially Ten's, showed great regret and guilt at that moment, so Bulma felt compassion and decided not to continue pointing out the flaws.
Compassion that she would regret too quickly
"You are an irresponsible Bulma
How could you turn them into modified humans if something like this could happen?" Goku said, not only did he not grasp the situation, he also behaved like an idiot when reaching that conclusion.
"WHAT !?" Everyone shouted upon hearing those controversial and out of place statements
But above all ...
He angered the beast ...
PLASH!!!!
BOOMMM!!!
UAHHH!!!!
A very short-tempered female beast that had undergone an operation to become a very powerful being
Much more powerful than a normal Super Saiyan
"HOW DARE YOU PROTEST!?
PLASH!!!!
IF YOU HADN'T TELEPORTED THERE WHEN I AND GOHAN BEGGED YOU NOT TO GO THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!
BOOMMM!!!
IF YOU HAD LISTENED TO ME THREE YEARS AGO, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE HAPPENING!!
CRASHHHH!!!
HOW DID YOU PRETEND ME TO ANTICIPATE THAT A PROJECT POSPONED BY GERO WOULD COME FROM THE FUTURE TO FULFILL ITS HYPOTHETICAL PURPOSE!?
POUNCH!!!
I DID ENOUG MAKING YOU STRONGER TO BEAT C-16, C-17 AND C-18 TO CORRECT YOUR MISTAKE AND TO PREPARE YOU FOR FUTURE THREATS!
POUNG!!!!!
AND DESPITE TO WARN YOU ALL, YOU RECKLESSLY… AGAIN… DUE TO YOUR STUPID FIGHTING OSBSESSION YOU UNNECESSARILY MESSED IT ALL UP ONE MORE TIME!
TRACATRACK!!!!!
AND IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE MY FAULT!!?" Shouted Bulma, who seemed to have turned into an ogre as she grabbed Goku by the neck and hit him hard with each sentence
But not only with each phrase or after each phrase
POM!
POOOOM!!!
PLASSHHHH!!!
So much and so hard that the blows could be heard in the closest soundproof rooms
POOOOM!!!
PLASSHHHH!!!
So much and so hard that was causing a small earthquake in that room and almost the entire spacecraft
POUNCH!!!
TRACATRACK!!!!!
Bulma hit him so hard and so hard that even Goku was able to understand that he had said something wrong, that he couldn't defend himself and had no choice but to show true regret "Bulma, mercy!
I'm sorry!!"
POUNCH!!!
"Apologies almost accepted ...
Someone give him a senzu bean…" Bulma said as she threw an extremely injured Goku to the ground.
So hurt, especially in the face that anyone could hardly recognize him
PlLASHHH!!!
And with that throw, this violent episode ended, which made everyone who witnessed that brutal beating reflect deeply.
[Long ago believed that there was nothing more terrifying than an angry Bulma
Now I know that there is nothing more dangerous than an angry and powerful Bulma] Krillin and Muten Roshi thought with terror, since in the past together with Goku and Yamcha they had been the ones who had made Bulma angry the most
And for this they thanked heaven that she hadn't found a way to operate herself in the past.
[Good heavens ...
With this operation even a rabbit is capable of devouring a dinosaur] Ten Shinhan and Piccolo thought upon see that Bulma in action for the first time
Her first combat and victory, that consisted of beating Goku Super Saiyan
[MMM…
I think I'll ask her to operate on me too when this is resolved...
It might be useful to have that strength] Chichi thought after being inspired by that brutal beating
"So I'll make it clear!
The modified ones won't go to fight Cell, we can't afford any more mistakes
And Goku, Piccolo before you leave we need to do something with the Dragon Balls" Said Bulma, giving orders again
Orders that she wouldn't allow to be breached this time
"It is true, due to Piccolo's union with Kami the Dragon Balls have lost their function, now they are only stones" Said Krillin, who recalled that Piccolo's power up had a quite important adverse effect for them
Especially if they wanted to resurrect their friends and be irresponsible again in the future
"Yes and we need the Dragon Balls as soon as possible to fix this mess
So now you can do something!
I can't do everything myself!" Shouted Bulma, who kept expelling her anger in the form of beatings and orders
"Goku, we would have to ask on Namek to see if someone with talent to create Dragon Balls would want to be the new Kami" Piccolo said as he gave Goku a senzu bean to recover from Bulma's blows
"Yes, I'll go right now, as soon as I teach Gohan how to become a Super Saiyan and leave Piccolo on Earth" Goku said as he tried to get up and forget his recent humiliation
"Didn't you hear me before?!
No ... of course not...
Anyway, do what you want...
It tires me to warn you...
But fix the Dragon Ball first" Said Bulma, who gave up on tying applying some caution or common sense to this group of crazy warriors.
"Piccolo san, are you really going to fight Cell?" Said Gohan, who left the room where he was training with the spy sphere that he borrowed from Bulma to have past references of his father, Vegeta, Yam, Ginger and Piccolo in his training… among other things
"Yes, I am the best suited for it.
I don't know if I can destroy it, but at the very least I will try to prevent it from devouring more humans… or androis
At least I'll do time until you six are ready" Piccolo answered, who decided to take responsibility for saving the planet, since for now he was the only viable option
"If you are going to go, will be better if you can locate him.
Take this device and put it on your ear
The tracker I made before doesn't work with him so I'll have to guide you to his position in case you lose sight of him again" Said Bulma, who despite not liking the idea of someone leaving, didn't totally disagree with Piccolo's initiative
"And how do you plan to do that?" Piccolo asked curiously
"Simple
I will track him with my magic sphere that Gohan has in his hand and I will notify you from here" Bulma as she took the sphere that Gohan was handing her for the demonstration
Demonstration in which Cell could be seen devouring human beings in a rather disgusting and terrifying way
Something unusual in the actual family friendly anime shonen where you hardly see nowadays blood
"It's a very useful thing" Said Chichi, who was also interested in getting one for several reasons.
"Also take some Senzu bean Piccolo
Trunks and I went to look for some in case someone got hurt again" Gohan said, who had thought of everything again
But if things were already complicated ... and more or less a temporary solution had been found for them...
Of course ... someone had to add new problems…
"This Bulma ...
Can you also tell us what is the position of C-16, C-17 and C-18?
We need to warn them of what is happening" Krillin said, expressing himself in a somewhat clumsy way, a sign that he was hiding his true intentions.
"Why do you want to know that Krillin?" Goku asked innocently, but bringing up the doubts that those words raised
That was something that made Krillin very nervous, and that caused him to express himself more awkwardly... an awkwardness that made more evident what was already obvious "I mean ...
There is a dangerous monster that tries to absorb them, they should be warned so that they don't get caught easily
… It's to prevent Cell from reaching his perfect form…
NOTHING MORE!"
Stare ...
An explanation that didn't convince even Goku, who didn't know the story behind Krillin's crush by the attractive android who beat up Vegeta's and wanted to kill Goku
"Why do you look at me like that?
This… telling the truth…" Said Krillin, hurting himself more with every word that came out of his mouth.
So much so that Bulma in an excessively sarcastic way said to Krillin while Muten Roshi played pranks on his apollarded student "Yes, we believe you ...
And let me guess ...
Will you go to warn them?
Exposing you to the possibility of Cell eating you too?"
"This…
I think it is inevitable that some of us have to go ...
Piccolo has to go for Cell, Goku has to find a new Kami and train with Gohan ... and the other Saiyans are training too" Krillin replied, half apologizing for the idea he had by the fact that only modified humans could warn them
"Unfortunately he is right ...
Although..." Gohan said as he sighed towards Bulma
"Aish ...
And surely you will be against destroying it with my device too
Right?" Said Bulma, who was hoping that she could end a potential problem quickly and efficiently, despite the moral implications
"Yes, Bulma
I have been following their past and what they do now, they are not saints, as they have committed some theft and damage against public and private property, but ...
Although they have had the opportunity to kill and injure many people in the process, they haven't hurt anyone ...
I don't think it's fair to take their lives
Even in these circumstances" Said Gohan, whose moral code prevented him from killing some people who so far hadn't killed anyone except for the bastard who kidnapped them, performed dangerous operations on them without their consent and enslaved them for years (I find it justified)
"If you don't mind Krillin I will accompany you
Maybe we can downsize them and bring them here to reschedule if we cooperate" Muten Roshi said, worried that Krillin might get into trouble down there.
More than anyone he knew how dangerous is face a sexy woman
"And I will also accompany you, they are three
If for some reason the negotiations turn hostile, it will be better if we are in numerical equality" Said Ten Shinhan, who didn't want to sit idly by
That was definitely a moving scene.
A moment where it was shown that friendship between men is something solid and seamless
A strong friendship that pushed two people to risk their lives to ensure that a third's life couldn't be in danger despite the fact that this third person was risking his life and that of practically the entire universe for having a tiny hope of flirting with a woman he theoretically wanted to kill his best friend and who in another parallel universe killed him and everyone
A moving scene that showed to the world and universe how far a man can go to fuck or at least trying to fuck
Risking his life, that of his friends and that of the universe!
Scene that demoralized Bulma even more, who had practically given up in her attempts not to create unstable and dangerous situations "Yes, or you could alert Cell about your position if you decide to fight or something similar
Something that could create the possibility of giving him five of his favourite foods with which to evolve to a point beyond his perfect form and kill us all...
...
...
Anyway…
Why do I keep trying?
Take some locators ...
With them you can easily detect them" "Thank you Bulma" Krillin said with relief, since until this moment he was afraid that Bulma would beat him in the same way she did with Goku to prevent him from leaving the spaceship
"Yes Yes…
Do what you want ...
One of my clones is already in Kami's palace, when you have brought the new Kami I will be waiting for you with the Dragon Balls" Said Bulma, who was staring at a fixed point while trying to pretend that she didn't care about anything
"Ok Bulma
Gohan, I'll leave them on Earth and be back in a moment.
I will help you transform and then I will go for the new Kami
Once these errands are finished we will train together" Goku said to his son while Piccolo, Krillin, Ten Shinhan and Muten Roshi touched him on the back to start the teleportation as soon as possible
"You don't have to help me with the transformation
I was there when you taught Yam and I heard perfectly how the transformation is achieved
I think I'm close to achieving it
Come back to train seriously with me, when I'm a Super Saiyan like you" Gohan replied enthusiastically
"Become as strong as you can as soon as possible
We will need your valuable help" Piccolo said with great confidence that Gohan could be decisive in this crazy conflict.
"That's right!
My son is the strongest in the world (Broly doesn't count)" Said Goku, who really thought from his heart that his son could surpass him and everyone (Broly doesn't count) if he tried hard enough and believed in himself
"Count me in Piccolo, Papa" Gohan replied quite blushed by the praise of two of his three father figures
"All right!
Let's go back to Earth and then ...
To Namek!" Goku said as he disappeared with Piccolo, Krillin, Ten Shinhan and Muten Roshi
As Gohan reentered the training room with more determination than before
While Chichi told him to take some books in case he got bored
While Bulma drowned her sorrows in alcohol "Broly, why have you left me alone with these idiots?"
And while Broly watched all that with interest from his private cinema on his private planet in his private universe ... eating popcorn and drinking cola non-stop since the day began until now
There was only one thing that worried him "When I come back Bulma will be very angry with me ...
I have to prepare some countermeasures..."
