Dragon Ball: I Became Cell in a Doomed Future Chapter 216 216: Vados Makes a Move, Levos Splits Apart

If this story made you laugh, tense up, or curse the gods, leave a review. ^^

....

Vados turned to the Grand Minister.

"Grand Minister, may I ask what your intention is?"

The Grand Minister nodded.

"For the sake of fairness, it should indeed be handled this way."

"Of course, fighters from Universe 7 have the right to refuse separation," he added lightly. "But in that case, they will no longer be allowed to continue participating in the tournant."

Champa's face lit up with delight.

The other Gods of Destruction were even more ecstatic.

This was a major victory in their campaign against Universe 7.

Whether or not Universe 7 was actually as strong as Son Goku claid, this move already dealt a heavy blow to Beerus and significantly lowered Universe 7's odds.

"Kid, does this Separation Technique really work the way Champa described?" Beerus asked quietly.

"Levos, you're smart. You must have a way to avoid this, right?" Supre Kai Shin asked nervously.

"Sorry. I don't," Levos sighed.

The Yardrats trained secret arts centered on unifying the spirit to extre levels, and forcibly separating Ki was just one application of those techniques.

Even if he wanted to learn a counter to the art now, there simply wasn't enough ti.

Levos was annoyed too. He really had let Champa's sche land cleanly.

Still, even if he, Piccolo, Puar, and Majin Buu had all increased their power through various fusions, absorptions, and assimilations…

Once separated, it wasn't like they'd suddenly beco completely useless in battle.

"Heh heh, my advice is that Universe 7's fighters withdraw from the competition while they still can," Champa said with a sly grin.

Levos raised a brow. Withdraw? Not a chance.

So what if their strength was partially stripped?

They could always re-assimilate after the tournant.

With Universe 7's current lineup, they didn't even need their full, broken configuration to stomp through the Exhibition Match.

"I won't withdraw," Levos said calmly. "I'm willing to accept the separation."

Seeing how relaxed he looked, the hearts of Universe 7's fighters settled.

They each declared they'd also continue competing.

"Our universe's fighters are truly united," Whis praised.

"Whis, please don't lump this king together with the rest of them," Frieza imdiately clarified.

The fact that Universe 7's fighters would rather be forcibly separated than give up their spots was sothing no other universe had expected.

Only Vados and Champa weren't surprised.

They flew over to Universe 7's viewing platform to begin the technique.

"Sister, why don't you let handle the separation?" Whis stepped in front of Vados.

Vados blinked.

"No can do. I don't trust your technique."

Champa backed her up.

"Whis, you're Universe 7's Angel who can guarantee you won't go easy on them?"

"That's right. Since the Separation Technique was proposed by Universe 6, it'll only be fair if soone from Universe 6 performs it!"

"Vados, don't hold back. Completely expose Universe 7's despicable thods!"

The other Gods of Destruction shouted in agreent.

Whis, unfazed, didn't move aside.

Just as the atmosphere was about to freeze solid, Levos spoke up to defuse it.

"It's okay, Whis. Miss Vados and I have actually fought side by side we're old comrades. I trust her."

"Besides, Lord Champa only targeted us to protect his universe. Put that aside, and we're still friends."

Champa choked on his own outrage.

If you laid it out like that, Universe 6 was also being targeted by everyone else.

Even if he wanted to win, he didn't need to push things so far that it broke relations with Universe 7 and made the other universes profit from the fallout.

"Hmph!" Champa snorted, turning his nose up. "Vados, when you use the secret technique, make sure to keep them safe."

Vados' eyes curved into crescents.

"Oh my, Lord Champa worrying about soone else's well-being? That's not like you at all. Could it be… because you don't want to let down a 'friend'?"

Champa bared his teeth.

"I just don't want those annoying guys to take advantage of us!"

Beerus frowned. Was this really the sa childish twin brother he knew? The one who used to stomp his feet and throw tantrums over snacks?

"Seems my worries were unnecessary," Whis murmured, stepping aside.

Seeing tension ease on both sides, Levos took a step forward.

"Let's start with ."

He was a little worried that the forced Separation Technique might sohow damage Puar's mind.

Puar didn't have much combat experience, but his temperant was solid. He was a reliable partner.

The rged form born from Rose Broly and Dark Kefla Kefrolly had terrifying physical potential. In terms of raw flesh strength alone, it already surpassed Levos' own body.

That kind of power, if displayed openly, would be utterly shocking anywhere.

If anything happened to Puar, Levos would have a major headache on his hands.

So he'd rather test the waters himself first.

His own situation was far more complicated than Puar's.

Not only did he gain a special Saiyan bloodline through technology, he'd also absorbed a whole bunch of fused Dark beings, including Gogeta (Super Saiyan Rosé).

On top of that, he had his Cell Max form layered over his base.

He wielded four evolution routes genetic, chanical, magical, and divine.

And on top of all that, he had assimilated eight Cell juniors.

Stripping all that power out by force was anything but simple.

Besides, as long as Moro still existed, the day would eventually co when he had to face this forcible separation technique anyway.

Better to use this opportunity to look for a counter.

Clearing his thoughts, Levos looked at Vados.

"I'm ready. Please begin."

Vados made no fuss about it.

She simply extended her slender hand and tapped his chest with an open palm.

Ti ticked by, second after second.

Her hand remained pressed against Levos' chest, completely still.

Seeing no visible change in Levos, Supre Kai Shin finally let out a breath of relief.

"Looks like the Separation Technique doesn't work on Levos."

A mont later, Vados pulled her hand away with a faint smile.

"All done."

Levos blinked.

"That's it? I don't feel any different. My strength hasn't dropped, and the Cell juniors haven't popped out either…"

Before he finished speaking, he noticed everyone around him staring in horror at sothing behind his back.

A bad feeling crawled up inside him.

He didn't feel anything.

Levos slowly turned around.

"This is…"

Vados exhaled lightly.

"I think this much is quite enough. Any more and it would beco aningless and difficult for to maintain."

Standing right in front of him… was Cell Max.

Levos finally understood he had really been split.

His base form was completely untouched. His strength hadn't changed at all.

But Cell Max had regressed by one stage and been pulled completely out of his body, becoming an empty shell without a soul.

Even so, the regressed Cell Max had hardly weakened at all in terms of raw power.

"Wait…"

Levos realized there was still a tight connection between himself and that shell.

It felt like an extension of his body sothing he could move at will.

He could even pull it back into his body and evolve it back into a complete Cell Max.

He couldn't make sense of it and turned to Vados for an explanation.

"Levos, you were originally an Earthling. So I preserved the parts modified through Earth technology, as well as your special Saiyan bloodline."

"As for Cell Max and the rest, fully dismantling everything would have been a hassle, so I kept him as a complete individual instead…"

Levos was stunned.

You could… do that?

For him, Vados' operation hadn't caused any real loss at all.

In fact, it was the perfect outco.

He'd gained sothing incredible.

"Co to think of it, I haven't really had ti to train myself, so…"

Levos imdiately ordered Cell Max to lie down and start doing push-ups on the ground.

"Let's see what Cell Max's training limit looks like…"

The very next second

Woom!

A violent gale erupted from Universe 7's viewing platform.
