Super Saiyan 2's First Appearance

Pfft!

A moment later, Cell's lower body regenerated instantly, shedding a large amount of green blood that dripped downward.

Who knows whose lucky head it landed on.

However, regenerating half a torso in one go consumed a massive amount of energy, leaving Cell in an even more weakened state.

He gasped for air, looking down at the people fleeing below, his eyes filled with greedy desire.

But the presence of Wang Shen kept him from making any rash moves!

The dire and desperate nature of his current situation couldn't help but stir up resentment toward Dr. Gero deep within Cell's heart!

Why did he have to release Android 17 and Android 18?

If he hadn't released those two, he could have easily entered the laboratory and absorbed them both.

Combined with Android 13, Android 14, and Android 15.

By absorbing all five androids, he was certain he would have evolved to an unprecedented height!

He would have been the greatest creation!

At that point, Wang Shen would have been his to toy with!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"

Wang Shen's voice jolted Cell from his delusions, and he hurriedly lowered his head to hide the strange glint in his eyes.

Wang Shen naturally could not have imagined the fantasies Cell had been indulging in over these few short moments.

He was simply observing Cell's freshly minted, perfectly restored lower body, clicking his tongue in wonder.

These Piccolo cells really are miraculous!

They work even better than a Senzu Bean.

However, what Wang Shen didn't notice was that his gaze toward Cell's lower half made the area involuntarily glow and tremble.

He wouldn't... want to slice it off again, would he?

One had to remember, the Light Sword in Wang Shen's hand hadn't dissipated yet.

He was truly terrified of Wang Shen now; he was actually no match for him!

"Hey, Cell."

Wang Shen suddenly looked up and asked curiously:

"Without Android 17 and Android 18, how did you evolve into your Perfect Form?"

Cell was startled at first, then the corners of his mouth curled up, feeling a secret thrill.

"Hmph, why should I tell you?"

Cell's pupils shifted, a flash of inspiration striking him as he wantonly provoked Wang Shen.

"I am the most perfect android created by Dr. Gero, possessing infinite potential for growth. I may not be your match right now, but I have ways to become stronger—strong enough that you won't even be able to catch a glimpse of my back!"

"How about it? Wang Shen, you are a Saiyan too, aren't you? Don't you Saiyans always boast about being the strongest warrior race? Do you dare let me become stronger and then fight you?"

Pfft!

Hearing this, Wang Shen couldn't help but scoff, his previously cold gaze replaced by mockery.

"Hahahaha!"

Cold sweat broke out on Cell's face as he carefully observed every micro-expression on Wang Shen's face.

With this laughter, did he agree or disagree?

Wang Shen's smile faded, and he couldn't help but say:

"Cell, do you know why I'm laughing?"

"I'm starting to doubt whether you really are, as you claim, Dr. Gero's most perfect creation. Your intelligence is truly worrying!"

"Do you think I'm that stupid? To have a chance to eliminate an enemy who hates me to the bone, only to let him grow in secret and then defeat me?"

Cell's expression was complex, containing the embarrassment of being seen through by Wang Shen, anger at being questioned, and the despair of having no way to escape.

Wang Shen shook his head and looked toward the direction of the Heavenly Temple.

It seems there won't be a chance for Son Gohan to achieve Super Saiyan 2!

But, Son Goku won't have to die either.

Under his personal tutelage, there is no way Son Gohan won't be able to transform into a Super Saiyan 2!

Having figured this out, Wang Shen retracted his aura and the Light Sword. Golden light flowed over his skin as the energy within his body surged, gathering toward his back and finally condensing into a single point!

Cell realized with horror that a terrifying aura and pressure were suddenly radiating from Wang Shen.

Unlike the previous battle, Wang Shen now gave him an all-encompassing sense of oppression!

He was very familiar with this feeling.

It was this very same desperate pressure that had forced him to flee to the North Pole!

No!

Cell exclaimed in his heart; he had to escape!

Otherwise, against Wang Shen in this state, he would be left without a burial ground!

Cell instantly erupted with energy and sped off into the distance, determined to put as much space as possible between himself and Wang Shen!

Wang Shen watched this scene coldly, completely unconcerned by Cell's flight.

"Aaaaaah!"

A series of low roars erupted from Wang Shen's throat, sounding like a booming bell.

The glass of the skyscrapers shattered, and the people on the ground had to cover their ears with all their might, their faces twisted in pain.

Even Vegeta and Trunks, who were rushing over from afar, could clearly hear Wang Shen's roar.

Trunks opened his mouth wide: "What happened?"

Vegeta, meanwhile, wore a look of astonishment and horror.

"Wang Shen's aura has suddenly surged, becoming strong to an incredible degree!"

"Trunks, speed up!"

Wang Shen suddenly looked up, his golden pupils flashing with sharp light.

"Ha!"

A terrifying aura exploded, nearly overturning the entire city with its sheer force. People looked toward Wang Shen's direction in despair, their eyes filled with fear.

At this moment, Wang Shen was no longer as calm and natural as he was in Full Power; his terrifying strength was no longer restrained!

Cell fled even faster, more desperately than before!

Wang Shen's once-soft gaze became sharp, his handsome features grew angular, and a lock of hair fell over his forehead.

His entire face radiated an intense, aggressive aura!

His energy flame surged, and blue-white electric arcs crackled across his body.

Any ordinary person who merely approached him would be reduced to charcoal by the lightning!

Super Saiyan 2!

A combat power increase of 100 to 150 times compared to his base state!

In this world, it had manifested for the first time through Wang Shen!

Wang Shen's golden eyes looked thousands of miles away, spotting the frantically fleeing Cell, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"I gave you a chance, but your speed just wasn't fast enough!"

Whoosh!

This time, Wang Shen did not use Instant Transmission, but instead pursued him with the raw speed of Super Saiyan 2.

A long arc remained in the sky, lingering for a long time without dissipating!

"Cell!"

A cold, chilling voice rang out.

By now, Cell had fled over the open ocean. Looking up, he saw the one person he least wanted to see appearing right before his eyes!

Cell gasped, filled with terror!

"No... don't kill me, please, I'll do anything you want!"

Swish!

Wang Shen shaped his hand into a blade, and a golden Light Sword instantly manifested!

Surging energy poured into the Light Sword in Wang Shen's hand, transforming it into a hundred-meter-long blade that emitted a sharp, piercing light.

Even before it touched him, Cell felt a deep, stinging pain.

Wang Shen's eyes were indifferent as he swung the Light Sword, slashing down directly toward the top of Cell's head.

If this sword landed, the core in Cell's brain would surely be destroyed, and his body would be split in two!

Facing death, the terrified Cell naturally did not wait for his end; he surged all the energy within his body!

He released purple energy to tightly wrap around himself, forming a sturdy protective shield.

Sizzle!

Accompanied by a piercing sound, the Light Sword slashed down, tearing through the space.

The shadow of death loomed over Cell; the Light Sword seemed to have severed the sun itself!

"Karotis, stop!"

At this moment, Vegeta arrived late. Seeing that the Ultimate Android Cell was about to perish under the blade, he called out to stop him.

"Cell must be defeated by me!"

However, Wang Shen showed no intention of paying any heed to Vegeta.

Vegeta tried to rush forward to stop Wang Shen, but was held back by Trunks.

Crack!

Under the Light Sword, Cell's purple energy shield held for only a fleeting moment before cracks began to spread, shattering completely soon after.

The Light Sword struck with the force of a bamboo-splitting blow, wreathed in lightning. Before it even descended, the sea beneath Cell had already been parted as if sliced, rolling toward both sides and exposing the ocean floor deep below.

"No!!!"

Cell screamed, his face filled with terror, his entire body trembling.

In the end, the Light Sword fell without resistance.

The world in Cell's eyes suddenly split in two, and his vision was gradually replaced by darkness.

The Light Sword dissipated. Wang Shen shook his hand and turned to look at Vegeta, his gaze unreadable.

Trunks frowned and fired a blast of ki.

Just like Frieza back in the day, Cell's two severed halves were completely reduced to ash.

Seeing this, Wang Shen blinked and gave a silent thumbs-up.

Truly steady!

As expected of you!
