A shout suddenly rang out from above the cave entrance.
Android 17 and his sister instinctively looked up.
The very next second.
A blinding radiance erupted overhead, like the birth of a new sun itself. The dazzling brilliance was so intense that neither of them could keep their eyes open.
"What the hell is this?!"
17 clutched his eyes tightly.
Yet while he was shielding them, he suddenly heard a wet gulping sound beside him—as if sothing was being swallowed whole.
That sound made the ominous feeling in his chest intensify.
Ignoring the pain in his eyes, he forced them open and looked upward.
A blurry figure appeared before him.
A green monster was clinging to the wall outside the cave entrance.
Its long tail stretched outward, swollen in the middle as though sothing had been absorbed into it.
"18... what is that thi—"
17 lowered his head to ask his sister, only to realize she was gone.
"Don't tell ..."
His pupils shrank violently.
He shot his gaze upward again—and t Cell's eyes directly.
"You two siblings are truly ruthless."
Cell grinned wickedly.
"I originally planned to capture more humans first, grow stronger, and then co back to absorb the two of you."
"But you nearly wiped out all humanity on Earth yourselves!"
"Hahaha! Good thing I know that bald monk's Solar Flare, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to beat you!"
As soon as Cell finished speaking, the bulging object within his tail was fully drawn into his body.
Then—
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Cell's shriveled fra suddenly swelled larger.
His body began to transform.
And not only that...
His power rose wildly, surging higher and higher until he successfully entered his First Form.
RUMBLE!
The entire southern island chain of Earth trembled violently.
"You monster! Spit 18 back out right now!"
17's eyes split with fury as he fired an energy blast upward at once.
But Cell rely waved a hand casually, knocking the blast aside.
Leaping down from the wall, Cell hovered before the cave entrance and sneered.
"If I hadn't absorbed 18 yet, perhaps I'd still fear you."
"But now?"
"Your strength is far too weak for ."
"N-No way... What kind of monster are you?!"
"Hahaha! Beco nourishnt for !"
Soon, a fierce battle erupted across Earth's southern islands.
The disturbance was so massive that even the two Bulmas in the Heavenly Realm noticed it.
"What's happening?" Future Bulma asked cautiously as she stood at the edge of the platform.
"I don't know."
Young Bulma frowned.
"I can only sense one aura. It seems soone has encountered the Androids, but..."
She suddenly paused.
"What is it?" Future Bulma asked anxiously.
"In that aura... I can also sense many familiar traces."
"Goku's... Krillin's... even Tien's..."
"How is that possible?!"
Future Bulma's eyes widened.
Young Bulma grabbed the other her hand and reassured her.
"I don't understand it either, but don't worry. In two more days, once Lord Gran and the others co out, we'll know the truth."
"...Right."
Ti passed swiftly.
One day later, for so unknown reason, that aura in the south—mixed with the energy traces of many Z Fighters—suddenly exploded upward once more.
Its force was terrifying.
The mont it erupted, the whole planet trembled.
Even the two Bulmas waiting in the Heavenly Realm shivered in fear, terrified that the monster might co there next.
Another day passed.
The owner of that overwhelming aura began wreaking havoc across Earth while roaring in rage:
"So the mightiest martial artist on Earth actually died of heart disease?!"
"What a disgrace!!"
"Son Goku! You're not really dead, are you?! Get out here!!"
"AAAAAHHH! Dr. Gero created to kill you! If you're dead, then what am I supposed to do?!"
Those furious roars echoed across the entire Earth—
Even reaching the Heavenly Realm above.
The two Bulmas grew even more frightened.
They had no idea who the owner of that voice was, nor why he was shouting such things.
Right now, they only wished for Gran and the others to erge as soon as possible.
Another day passed.
It had now been four days since Gran's group entered the Hyperbolic Ti Chamber.
Ordinarily, normal people could only remain inside for two days.
Beyond that limit, they would be trapped forever.
But...
That restriction ant absolutely nothing to Gran.
Another day passed.
This was the fifth day.
And on this day, an enraged voice rose once more from below the Heavenly Realm:
"Damn it! They really are all dead!"
"You Earth martial artists are truly pathetic!"
"No... wait. Son Gohan and the others are still alive!"
"Get out here now! If you don't, I'll blow up the Earth!"
Hearing this, Future Bulma cried out in shock:
"That thing... it really wants to destroy Earth?!"
"We can't wait any longer!"
Young Bulma grabbed her counterpart's hand.
"Co on—we're going to find Gran!"
The two rushed toward the Heavenly Palace.
But just as they reached the center of the plaza—
A violent cracking sound suddenly rang out from the air itself.
Crack... crack... crack...
The sound grew louder.
Then, in the next instant—
Space itself tore open into a massive rift.
Three figures slowly stepped out.
They were none other than Gran and the other two.
Gran looked exactly the sa as before—handso, calm, and imposing.
Gohan had not changed much either.
He still had only one arm, though he now looked noticeably more mature.
But the one who had changed the most...
Was Trunks.
Five days ago, he had still been a fourteen-year-old boy.
Yet within those five days, he had spent five full years inside the Hyperbolic Ti Chamber.
Now—
He was a nineteen-year-old adult Saiyan.
His appearance had beco exactly like the Future Trunks from legend.
