Chapter 24: Chapter 24
"Go to hell!"
As Katakana's voice fell, he punched out, and his fist sank directly into Cell's abdomen.
Under the power of this punch, Cell's body bent into the shape of a prawn.
"Wow!"
A mouthful of green blood spurted out of Cell's mouth, and his pupils shrank sharply.
Holding his belly with both hands, he took a few steps back and sat on the ground, then began vomiting violently.
"Katakana... Mr. Katakana's strength is too strong..."
"It's so powerful... Just one punch completely incapacitated Cell!"
Son Goku and the others widened their eyes in shock at this moment, their jaws nearly hitting the ground.
They knew that Katakana was very strong and that even defeating Cell would be an easy task.
Son Goku believed that even so, Katakana would still have to fight Cell for a while to defeat him.
But Son Goku never expected that his opponent would render Cell powerless with just one punch!
"Whoa... wow!"
Cell's face twisted in pain as he kept vomiting light green acidic liquid, his stomach seemingly unable to handle the blow.
And after vomiting for two minutes, his body suddenly underwent a massive change. His chest swelled abruptly, and his neck thickened to a terrifying degree.
Wow...
Then, a figure was spat out directly from Cell's mouth.
"Cell spit something out... It's Vegeta!"
After seeing the figure clearly, Krillin exclaimed in shock!
"Vegeta..."
"Mr. Vegeta!"
At the same time, Trunks, Son Goku, and the others also realized it.
Yes, the figure spit out by Cell was none other than Vegeta, who had been absorbed by Cell a few days ago.
However, Vegeta looked extremely disgusting at this moment, his entire body covered in a layer of light green mucus.
After spitting out Vegeta, Cell clearly had no way of maintaining his perfect form.
He immediately reverted to his previous bulky-lipped form.
"Cell has changed back, and his energy is weakening rapidly. This is great!"
"Now, we can defeat Cell!"
Seeing Cell's transformation, Trunks, Son Goku, and the others shouted excitedly.
At the same time, Android 18 also looked on expectantly, hoping that Android 17 would be spat out next.
"Wow!"
Cell continued vomiting but still refused to give up. He reached out to grab Vegeta, intending to absorb him again to restore his perfect form.
But clearly, in his current weakened state, he was incapable of doing so.
"Wow!"
With another violent heave, Android 17 was also spit out by Cell.
Cell's appearance completely reverted from his previous form to that of a mere insect.
"I never expected... something like this to happen..."
Cell stared at his hands in disbelief.
He never imagined that he would regress into his insect-like form.
Escape!
Yes, at this moment, there was only one thought in Cell's mind: escape!
Now, he couldn't defeat Katakana, and even Son Goku and Trunks could easily kill him.
If he didn't flee now, he might truly die here.
"Whoosh!"
Cell desperately used all his remaining power, trying to fly away as fast as possible.
Because the faster he escaped, the safer he would be.
Even though he had reverted to his bug-like form, as long as he survived, he could still absorb Android 17 and 18 again in the future and regain his perfect form.
"No, Cell is escaping!"
Just as everyone was celebrating their victory, the sharp-eyed Piccolo suddenly raised his head and shouted.
"Cell must not be allowed to escape!"
At this moment, both Son Goku and Trunks clenched their fists and transformed into Super Saiyans.
But Katakana simply looked in the direction Cell was fleeing and shook his head.
Then, in the next instant, Katakana's body suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Cell.
"W-what... How is this possible..."
Cell looked at Katakana in front of him, his entire body freezing as if he had fallen into an ice-cold abyss.
Katakana stretched out two fingers and placed them on Cell's forehead.
Then, a faint smile appeared on his lips as he said, "Disappear!"
Without giving Cell any chance to react, a powerful rose-colored energy blast completely engulfed Cell's body.
"Boom!"
In the end, nothing remained.
"Was that Instant Transmission? I didn't even notice when he moved!"
Son Goku stared at Katakana with a look of pure shock.
Although he was certain that Katakana had used Instant Transmission, Son Goku realized that even if he used the same technique, he wouldn't be able to move so fast.
It seemed like Katakana didn't even need to sense energy to locate his target.
If such a terrifying person were an enemy... could Earth even stand a chance?
Son Goku didn't dare to think about it.
He could only hope that Katakana had killed Cell not on a whim, but to protect Earth.
"Thank you, Katakana. You saved the Earth!"
Son Goku walked up to Katakana and said respectfully.
"Yes, Mr. Katakana, we're truly grateful. If it weren't for you, who knows what would have happened to Earth? Also, about what happened last time, I apologize once again on behalf of my father..."
Trunks, too, understood Son Goku's concern and immediately stepped forward to express his gratitude.
After all, Katakana had just killed Cell in one move. If such a person ever turned against Earth, they would be powerless to resist.
"Mm."
Katakana nodded and then landed beside Android 18, ignoring Son Goku and Trunks.
He naturally knew what these two were worried about, but although he had no intention of harming Earth, he wasn't interested in explaining himself.
Perhaps giving them a little pressure and sense of crisis would push them to improve faster.
"Krillin, you still have Senzu Beans, right?"
Katakana glanced at Krillin and spoke in a calm voice.
The latter immediately took out a bag filled with Senzu Beans from his arms.
"Y-yes!" he stammered.
Katakana took a Senzu Bean and tossed it directly to Android 18.
"He's not dead, but his energy is very weak. This will help him recover quickly."
Hearing this, Android 18 didn't hesitate. She picked up the Senzu Bean and fed it to Android 17.
She was already familiar with Senzu Beans from the data in her memory, knowing that they could rapidly heal injuries and restore stamina.
