Future timeline.

After Cell defeated the Androids, all the humans on Earth gathered to sing and dance in celebration for three days and three nights.

Today, the total human population on Earth does not even reach one hundred million.

Although the population is small, with a genius scientist like Bulma, the speed at which humanity is building its new home is by no means slow.

As the hero who saved the Earth—Cell.

Humanity erected a massive statue of him, standing tall in the center of the new capital, "Cell City."

Wherever Cell goes now, people ask him for photos and autographs.

He is just like a big celebrity.

However, Cell has no time to play with them; he only wants to return to that other timeline and absorb the Androids there.

Cell ran into Bulma's laboratory and asked Bulma, who was busy conducting experiments:

"Bulma, how much longer until the Time Machine's energy is ready?"

"At least another half a month. Extracting the energy required for time travel is truly difficult."

"It's a good thing you defeated the Androids, otherwise just collecting these materials would have taken several months."

Hearing Bulma say this, Cell was out of options.

Half a month it is, then.

Cell did not linger in the laboratory and turned to leave.

Thinking about having to stay in this future timeline for another half a month made Cell feel bored.

There are no strong fighters here, and no way for him to grow stronger.

He now disdains the act of absorbing humans.

With his combat power at this level, even if he absorbed all of the less than one hundred million people left on Earth, it wouldn't increase his strength by much.

Right!

Cell suddenly realized that this point in time is roughly when his past self would be emerging from the underground laboratory.

If he were to absorb the version of himself from this timeline, his combat power should increase a bit, right?

Let me help you all by eliminating the last hidden threat on Earth!

Don't be too moved!

Hahahahaha!!!

Main timeline.

In order to rapidly improve their combat techniques.

Mo Yuan and Lapis decided to go into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train.

Under Mr. Popo's dedicated guidance, Mo Yuan and Lapis could be said to be making leaps and bounds.

As their techniques improved, Mo Yuan and Lapis became increasingly astonished by Mr. Popo's combat skills.

Mo Yuan even suspected that if Mr. Popo had sufficient combat power, he might have directly mastered Ultra Instinct.

The improvement in combat techniques also led to significant growth in the combat power of Mo Yuan and Lapis.

Even Lazuli, who had always been less than enthusiastic about fighting, was dragged into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber by Mo Yuan for some meticulous one-on-one training.

Mo Yuan: 600 million

Lapis: 1.7 billion

Lazuli: Android energy 500 million, Ki 800 million

Kame House.

BOOM!

With a loud crash, the entire island shook violently.

Chi-Chi, who was holding water and preparing to wipe down Son Goku's body, was knocked over by the sudden tremor.

"W-what was that?"

"Is it an Android attack?"

Thinking of the Androids, Chi-Chi's heart immediately jumped into her throat.

"Goku!"

Chi-Chi rushed upstairs.

She opened the bedroom door only to find the floor mat completely empty.

"Goku?"

There was no sign of Goku inside the room.

Chi-Chi poked her head out the window.

A figure she had been longing for appeared before her eyes.

Goku's illness had completely cleared up!

Chi-Chi was so excited that she jumped straight out of the second-story window.

She then proceeded to shower Goku with a series of kisses, hugs, and lifts, putting on a public display of affection.

In the end, Goku decided to take Gohan with him to train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Although Chi-Chi was reluctant, she knew that even if she disagreed, it would be useless, so she eventually gave in.

Recently, Cell had suddenly vanished.

Although Trunks mentioned that his Time Machine might have been stolen by Cell.

It was highly likely that he had fled to the future timeline.

However, everyone still dared not let their guard down.

They would patrol everywhere whenever they could to prevent Cell from suddenly popping up to cause trouble.

Furthermore, the Androids had not appeared again since their last sighting at Kame House.

Therefore, their patrols were not only to guard against Cell but also against the Androids.

Goku quickly located Gohan using Instant Transmission, then took him to find Vegeta.

At this moment, Trunks had returned to train alongside Vegeta.

Because Bulma's research on the Time Machine was progressing very slowly and could not be completed in a short time.

Trunks did not want to waste any time; he had to seize every moment to make himself stronger.

If he couldn't defeat Cell, returning to the future timeline would be pointless.

"Vegeta." Son Goku flew up beside Vegeta.

"Stop getting in my way, Kakarot, get lost!" Vegeta couldn't say anything pleasant when facing Son Goku.

"Don't be like that! I know of a great place to train, where one year inside is equal to only one day outside."

Upon hearing this, Vegeta's expression shifted instantly.

"That place is a room inside the Lookout of Kami."

"Is that true?"

Vegeta was tempted.

If such a place truly existed, he would definitely be confident in defeating those damn puppets and that ugly green freak.

Seeing Vegeta's expression, Son Goku knew he was interested.

He immediately pressed his advantage.

"It's true, come with me! I'm not suggesting we train together, it's just that the room is very large, so I'm inviting you and Trunks to go in."

Goku knew Vegeta's personality; if he didn't give him a way to save face, Vegeta would never go.

Vegeta: "Fine! But on one condition: I go in first."

Son Goku nodded: "Deal!"

As long as Vegeta agreed, it didn't matter who went in first; having one more strong fighter meant a better chance of defeating the enemy.

Following this, the two pairs of father and son flew toward the Lookout.

At the Lookout.

Mo Yuan and Lapis were sparring, using no ki, purely testing their techniques.

After Mr. Popo's special training, the two of them had undergone a complete transformation.

Compared to now, they were like two children who had learned a few martial arts moves; although they knew the techniques, their application was a mess.

Mr. Popo watched the two of them spar from the side and nodded in satisfaction.

At the same time, Mr. Popo was also astonished by their progress.

They were not even a bit inferior compared to Son Goku.

In fact, Mo Yuan's speed of improvement was even faster than Son Goku's.

Gradually, the two reached the end of their bout.

Lapis was defeated by Mo Yuan once again, without any suspense.

Although Mo Yuan couldn't crush Lapis the way Mr. Popo did, he had held the upper hand from start to finish, steadily suppressing him.

"Damn it, lost again." Lapis felt a bit depressed; he hadn't won a single time, even though the time Mr. Popo spent guiding them was the same.

"Hahahaha! Lapis, losing to your brother-in-law is nothing to be ashamed of!" Mo Yuan laughed triumphantly, patting Lapis on the back.

Lapis (-"- angry)

Damn it! Being suppressed in strength was one thing, but even my status in this family...

Lapis shook off Mo Yuan's hand and flickered to appear beside Mr. Popo.

He clamped Mr. Popo in a headlock and demanded, "Mr. Popo, did you secretly give him special training? Why is he so much stronger than me?"

Lazuli glanced at him from the side and said indifferently, "Is it possible that you're just too stupid?"

Lapis glared at her with dead fish eyes (ㅍ_ㅍ): "Is it possible that I'm actually your biological brother?"

At this moment, Mo Yuan suddenly appeared beside Lazuli and wrapped an arm around her waist: "So you're just the younger brother."

Lapis: As expected... I'm the one who's redundant here.
