Seeing Loren casually eliminate the two Cell Juniors, both Goku and Vegeta wore awkward expressions.
Especially Vegeta.
The proud Saiyan Prince—
Reduced to such a miserable state by artificial little monsters.
Yet Loren hadn't even revealed his true power.
He had simply swatted them away like flies.
Humiliation.
Unprecedented humiliation.
"AAAAAAAH—!!!"
Vegeta's wounded pride exploded into rage.
The silver-blue lightning around his body intensified dramatically!
"I am… Super Saiyan Vegeta!"
"SUPER GALICK GUN—!!!"
Terrifying purple energy condensed between Vegeta's palms, far stronger than anything he had unleashed before.
The remaining Cell Junior shrieked sharply, instinctively gathering energy to resist—
But it was already too late.
BOOM—!!!
A devastating purple torrent swallowed the Cell Junior whole.
It vanished without a trace.
On the other side, Goku inhaled deeply.
Witnessing Loren's and Gohan's strength had shocked him—
But it also ignited his fighting spirit.
He glanced at Vegeta, then at Loren, who sat leisurely in the distance.
He couldn't drag this out any longer.
"Ha!"
Goku released all of his ki without reservation.
Super Saiyan Full Power!
"Kamehameha—!!!"
A highly condensed blue beam—launched later yet arriving first—struck its target precisely.
BOOM!
The final Cell Junior disintegrated, screaming unwillingly as it turned to dust.
On the ring.
Ultimate Lightning Cell smiled.
He clapped slowly.
Clap.
Clap.
Clap.
"Wonderful."
"Truly a splendid appetizer."
His gaze bypassed everyone else and locked directly onto Loren.
"The warm-up is over."
"Now, Loren…"
"It's time for our show."
Cell extended one finger and beckoned lightly.
Pure provocation.
Vegeta's fist clenched instantly.
Outrageous!
This monster completely ignored him and Goku!
Facing Cell's invitation—
Loren yawned.
He stood up slowly from the rock.
"Fight you?"
He looked at Cell like he was staring at an idiot.
"Too troublesome."
"What?!"
The elegant smile on Cell's face froze instantly.
"An opponent of your level—"
Loren pointed calmly toward Gohan.
"Let my disciple play with you."
Across the world, reporters and viewers watching the live broadcast were stunned.
"His disciple?! Isn't that just a kid?"
"Let a child fight a monster that erased cities?!"
"Is he insane?!"
Ultimate Lightning Cell's expression darkened violently.
No one—
No one had ever dared to treat him like this.
"Very good."
His aura surged violently.
A pressure like a tsunami crushed the entire battlefield.
"If you want your precious disciple to die so badly…"
Cell's killing intent locked onto Gohan, sharp enough to pierce flesh.
"Then I'll grant your wish!"
"I'll crush his bones inch by inch and drain every drop of his energy!"
"After that—"
"You're next."
Whoosh—!
Cell vanished.
The next instant—
A fist carrying catastrophic power smashed straight toward Gohan's face!
BOOM—!!!
An overwhelming shockwave erupted!
Golden ki exploded outward, entwined with wild silver lightning!
Super Saiyan Two!
Gohan unleashed all of his power.
Cell's fist stopped.
It couldn't advance even a centimeter.
"…What?!"
Shock flooded Cell's face.
This ki.
This form.
Impossible!
This brat's power was—
On par with his own?!
"My turn."
Gohan's cold voice echoed.
Danger.
Extreme danger.
Cell instinctively retreated—
But Gohan was faster.
From the moment he transformed, the rhythm of battle belonged to him.
Instant Transmission!
Gohan appeared behind Cell.
A simple elbow strike—
BANG!
Cell was smashed into the ground like a cannonball.
RUMBLE—!!!
The entire island shook violently.
A bottomless crater formed.
"..."
Vegeta's mouth hung open.
One elbow.
That arrogant Ultimate Lightning Cell—
Completely suppressed.
Is this really… Kakarot's son?
Goku stared in shock.
Then—
Pride surged uncontrollably in his chest.
"So strong…"
"Gohan!"
Krillin, Tien Shinhan, and the others were completely speechless.
They knew Gohan was strong—
But not this strong.
Piccolo walked over to Loren.
"…What exactly did Gohan experience in there?"
Loren sat back down, crossing his legs.
"Nothing special."
"Just a bit of training."
"I only let him get used to despair a little earlier."
