"What... what?!!"
Golden Cell was instantly stunned.
He had been puzzled by this before. Clearly, the other party knew that swallowing Android 17 and the others would make him stronger, yet he had not stopped him.
Back then, he had already suspected that this guy had deliberately allowed him to swallow Android 17 and the others.
And now, judging from Gran's tone...
"You..."
Golden Cell could not help taking two steps back across the sea. He stared in disbelief. "You deliberately let me swallow them?"
"What else?"
Gran coughed twice, his face utterly free of tension. "You have Saiyan genes in your body. You should know what Saiyans are like. I just wanted to see exactly how far you could go."
"..."
A raging storm instantly rose within Golden Cell's heart.
Naturally, he knew what Saiyans were like.
Arrogant, conceited, and looking down on everyone else... those were the defining traits of the Saiyan Clan.
For example, in the second timeline he had visited, they originally had no chance of reaching Perfect Form. Vegeta had wanted to see how strong he would become after achieving Perfect Form.
That was why he had been able to absorb Android 18 without a hitch, and only then had he wiped out all the Earth's warriors in that timeline.
Who would have thought that now...
This guy was the same!!!
"Phew!!"
Golden Cell let out a heavy breath and stared fixedly at Gran. "I finally understand. So that was your goal too. But aren't you being too arrogant? With my current power, can you really still keep things under control?"
After his initial shock, Golden Cell was not all that afraid. He had mainly experienced something like this in the second timeline.
"Whether I can control it or not, you'll find out soon enough."
