The bright sky was gradually replaced by gloomy darkness, the starry sky brilliant, and the twinkling stars painting beautiful pictures one after another. People pointed to the starry sky and marveled at the splendor above their heads.
Raditz had gone deep into the universe and seen a more beautiful and vast ocean of stars. Compared with that magnificent scene, what he saw at this moment could be regarded as a drop in the ocean.
He stood beside Zangya's treatment room, leaning against the wall, looking at the sky full of stars, and suddenly felt his own insignificance.
There were still too many strong beings in the vast universe, and there were many who destroyed worlds at will. There were fighters beyond Super Saiyan 2 everywhere in the demon realm, the underworld, and the divine realm. Although his progress was fast, it was far from enough. If he met those powerful beings early, he would die without knowing how.
What's more, he had people around him. This time, Zangya was injured by Cell, which reminded Raditz that even if he was already very powerful, what about Zangya? So Raditz decided to wait for Zangya to wake up and take her to train together, at least raising her strength several levels.
Zangya was also a talented fighter. Although her talent wasn't as terrifying as that of Saiyans, she was better than other races. Raditz thought to himself that with his guidance, there would be a huge breakthrough.
"Beep——" Suddenly, the sound of equipment came from the side, which was the signal that the treatment pod had finished the recovery treatment.
Raditz hurriedly turned around and saw that the liquid in the pod quickly flowed back into the instrument, and various suction cups that had adhered to the body were disconnected. The thin T-shirt and jeans on Zangya's body were dried at the same time, and she opened her eyes completely refreshed.
"Huh..." Heaving a long sigh of relief, Raditz walked toward her and embraced her.
"Made you worry."
"It's fine. You should have contacted me directly, or gone to Goku."
"I didn't have time to react—Cell rushed over." Zangya pouted and hugged Raditz's waist tightly. "I didn't know he would be so powerful."
Raditz sneered: "Powerful? Before long, he'll know the uselessness of this power."
"I don't seem to be able to help..." Zangya was a little frustrated. This time she was knocked down by Cell and Android 18 was absorbed, which made her feel very guilty. She was ashamed of her trust in the android and felt that she had put everyone in a predicament.
Raditz comforted her, his face calm: "It's Cell's cunning, it's not your fault. I'm also responsible—I didn't expect him to hide in another place and survive. But it just so happens that Cell can be our whetstone to enhance our strength."
"Isn't it too dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous at all. I'll take you to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber tomorrow. The two of us will train for a year, and we'll definitely make great progress."
"Really!" Zangya's eyes lit up, then she hesitated again. "But you've already entered for a day. Won't the entrance of that place be closed once the time expires, and you'll never be able to get out?"
"One day is enough," Raditz said confidently.
He knew well that the training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber was absolutely effective, and using this advantage could create infinite possibilities.
Cell gave Goku and the others ten days, nothing more than wanting to use this time to accumulate his own strength and better master the transformation of the perfect body. The future Cell had just absorbed Android 18, so naturally he wasn't yet fully familiar with the body, and the time for this era's Cell to evolve into a perfect body wasn't long, so it would also take time.
Ten days was too much for Raditz and the others—they could still find time to take a vacation after training!
"Tomorrow we'll go to the temple to train. Let's have a good rest tonight." Raditz picked up Zangya with a little force, and his hands became dishonest.
"Shouldn't you have a good rest..." Zangya blushed and leaned softly against Raditz.
"Seeing that you've been sleeping in the treatment room for too long, move around first."
Raditz closed the door of the treatment room without any hassle and sealed it tightly with a psychic barrier. Then, passionate sounds emanated from inside, interspersed with gentle whispers, adding a rippling interest to the night...
The next day, Cell appeared on the world's largest TV station. He didn't kill anyone according to his agreement with Goku, but he still showed off his amazing strength.
The studio was blasted open by a wave of his energy, the walls emitting scorched smoke, and the outside could be seen transparently.
With just one look from Cell, the guards with guns or batons fell to their knees. The invisible pressure came like a mountain, and everyone in the studio was scared out of their wits.
In an instant, people remembered those raging metal creatures and the despair they brought!
"Monster! The monster is coming again!" the host screamed hoarsely, his voice trembling like a leaf in the wind.
"Hehe, my name is Cell, and I'm different from the metal creatures you know. However, it's okay if you think I'm a monster. First of all, I would like to thank everyone who gave their precious lives for my evolution a while ago. Please rest assured that I have no further need for human life." At this point, Cell admired the wonderful expressions of the row of people and smiled contentedly. "Secondly, I have something very important to inform everyone in the world."
"I'm going to hold a martial arts tournament called the 'Cell Games,' which is located at coordinates 28KS-5 northwest of the central capital. Many people know about the World Martial Arts Tournament. My partner and I are two participants, and you can have countless fighters, and if you lose, you'll be disqualified, and you can start again with substitutions."
"By the way, the rules have to be revised a little bit. Being killed also counts as a loss. If you're afraid of death, don't come to participate. Oh, of course, if you all lose, I will kill everyone in the world, and I'll appreciate your fearful expressions before destroying Earth!" Cell showed a delicate and charming smile, and his expression resembled Frieza for a moment.
He stared at the camera with great interest for two seconds, as if penetrating the screen, and stared at Goku and others at the other end.
In the end, Cell waved goodbye, spread his wings, and flew upward through the tall building.
Cell's horrific broadcast spread rapidly through television, radio, and the internet, and soon reached the point where everyone in the world knew it. Human beings panicked again. Not long after the attack of metal creatures, this declaration of war on the whole world had arrived. The successive blows made people's fragile hearts almost collapse.
But not to the point of despair—people thought of those martial arts fighters who had saved them, and the boy who once defeated Piccolo! Whenever there was a crisis, someone would always come forward!
Although they were resurrected from the dead, the memories of the martial arts fighters who saved the world still remained in people's hearts. Many people began to look for these heroes, and some even went back to the former World Martial Arts Tournament records. Son Goku, Jackie Chun, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha... names appeared before people's eyes!
