Whether it was Earthlings like Krillin and Yamcha, or Super Saiyans like Vegeta and Trunks.
Caught completely off guard and struck head-on by such an intense Solar Flare, they were all instantly blinded!
The entire world turned a ghastly white.
"Damn... I let my guard down!!"
Goku covered his eyes, tears streaming down his face. He could not see anything.
At the edge of the battlefield.
Sun Wuxiu had also closed his eyes.
His reaction had been incredibly fast. The instant Cell made his move, he had known Cell was about to use Solar Flare and shut his eyes.
But this was, after all, a bug-level divine technique from Dragon Ball. Once used in actual combat, no matter who it was, they would be unable to open their eyes for several seconds.
At that moment, his first thought was neither defense nor counterattack.
"Bulma!"
Sun Wuxiu spun around in an instant and pulled Bulma tightly into his arms, using his broad back to shield her from all the blinding light.
"Wu Xiu?! What's happening? It's so bright!"
Bulma cried out from his embrace.
"Don't open your eyes yet. It's Solar Flare!"
Sun Wuxiu said grimly.
"It's fine. Just hold on to me!"
He had no need to care what Cell intended to do.
Whether Cell wanted to flee or launch a sneak attack.
As long as Bulma was not hurt, even if Cell blew a hole through Earth, he could still deal with it.
However.
Just as everyone descended into the chaos of temporary blindness.
A shrill, despairing scream filled with terror suddenly rang out from the center of the battlefield.
"AAAAAAAH!!!!"
That was Android 17's voice!
"Let... let me go!!!"
"What is this thing?! It's disgusting!!"
"No... don't absorb me!! Help! Help me!!!"
His voice was full of struggle
