Entering the Hyperbolic Time Chamber

Just as Wei Dong was about to move to engage Cell, a notification reminded him that although Cell had achieved his Perfect Form, he had not yet mastered this power, so killing him now would not count.

Oh, fine. "Cell, about how many days will it take for you to master your current power?"

Cell replied, "About seven days."

"So long? Fine, suit yourself."

"Everyone, follow me, I'll take you to a good place." With Instant Transmission, we arrived at the Heavenly God Temple. Although the world no longer had a Heavenly God, the Hyperbolic Time Chamber remained. This time, Son Goku, Gohan, and I, Wei Dong, were the ones entering; I was worried that if Cell mastered his full power, we wouldn't be able to handle him.

I decided we would train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for two years, since it would only be two days in the outside world, having no real impact. However, Trunks couldn't stand it any longer. He questioned Wei Dong for letting Cell go off to cause destruction, arguing that the future world was already sparsely populated and hellish—was there even any hope left for it?

"Trunks, I understand how you feel, but don't be impatient. I have my own plans."

As I spoke, I produced the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and had them enter, then turned to Son Goku and told him it was time to go in.

Once inside, this was Wei Dong's first time entering the Heavenly God's domain. It was vast and boundless, far better than my own; the system is truly unreliable.

At this moment, Son Goku asked, "Wei Dong, are you confident you can defeat Cell? Honestly, I'm not. Even without mastering his power, Cell already has a combat power of 3.8 billion. Once he masters it, he'll surpass me, which is why I've come in to train."

"By the way, Wei Dong, what form is that of yours? It looks like a Super Saiyan, but it isn't." "Oh, that? That is Super Saiyan 2. The difference is that it provides a 100-fold multiplier, and there is lightning surrounding the body. However, as far as I know, the Super Saiyan transformation doesn't seem to have a limit; it can always be improved as long as you train hard. And Son Goku, honestly, Gohan's potential is much higher than anyone else here, including me. So train Gohan well; perhaps he will be the one to save the Earth in the future."

"Gohan still can't transform into a Super Saiyan, can he?"

Son Goku gave an awkward laugh and said, "Yes, he still can't."

"Then Son Goku, you teach him how to transform first, and I'll go train on the side."

I ran off before Son Goku could even respond.

I began my training, thinking that if I could raise my base state to 50 million, I would be absolutely secure. The problem was that I was only at 37 million; how could I improve so quickly?

Then it hit me: I would spar with Son Goku. After all, my Battle-Hardened trait allows me to continuously increase my combat power.

Once Gohan learned to transform into a Super Saiyan, I suggested they attack me. At this point, Son Goku's Super Saiyan combat power was 800 million, while Gohan's was only 400 million.

My Super Saiyan combat power was 2.035 billion, a massive gap, so I suppressed my energy significantly.

I lowered it to 1 billion, which made things much better. This training was excellent; I could increase my combat power, Son Goku could improve, and Gohan could accumulate experience.

All three of us improved simultaneously. Although the gains from Battle-Hardened were slow, my combat power was indeed rising.

When my combat power reached over 44 million, a year had already passed. Son Goku's combat power had risen from a base of 16 million to over 24 million, and his Super Saiyan form was at 1.2 billion. Gohan's Super Saiyan form was at 800 million; his combat power was upgrading very quickly.

Why was my improvement so slow? Was it a matter of talent? I was frustrated, but over this year, Son Goku and Gohan had both grown accustomed to their base states—you could say they had achieved Full Power. Next, they began to fight while trying to find the sensation needed to reach Super Saiyan 2, but progress seemed very slow.

After another year, my combat power reached over 53 million, and Son Goku could now transform into Super Saiyan 2 at will. However, Gohan still couldn't, which made Son Goku very anxious—what exactly was the problem?

Regardless, this was more than enough to fight Cell. When we opened the Space Gate and stepped out, Vegeta and the others had already arrived, seemingly wanting to see the results of Son Goku's training. But Son Goku didn't even need to transform; his base state alone intimidated Vegeta. His base was already over 38 million, while Vegeta only had a combat power of 21 million. What Vegeta didn't know was that Trunks was at 26 million, higher than him, though he was hiding it, and even Gohan's combat power was 30 million.

"Alright everyone, there are five days left until the battle begins. Do whatever you want." The androids also emerged from my Hyperbolic Time Chamber, though their combat power had barely increased, making the trip mostly useless.

Seeing Android 18, I flashed over, grabbed her waist from behind, and whispered into her ear, "The battle is starting soon. What if I die? Do you want to go have some fun now? We might all die, and I know you've never tried it before, so I'm inviting you to try it with me."

Android 18 blushed and said, "Scum, let go! Let go! Are you sick in the head? Android 16, Android 17, come help me!" Regarding such matters, Android 16 and Android 17 were already unfazed; they didn't want to get beaten up, so they chose to turn a blind eye.
