Chapter 17: Chapter 17
Trunks suddenly stopped and stared at No. 16 who came out of the hibernation capsule.
"Brother Gohan, is this the android you mentioned that is scarier than No. 17 and No. 18?"
Trunks didn't sense any danger from No. 16, but he was still cautious and didn't dare to underestimate the enemy.
After all, No. 17 and No. 18 used to look harmless, but in fact they were two big demons.
The android in front of him might also be such a monster.
"Brother Gohan, let me kill him."
Trunks said, and his Ki expanded rapidly, causing a strong wind to blow through the laboratory, making the corners of his clothes rustle, and the roof was about to be blown off.
"Trunks, don't do anything yet." Gohan hurried to stop him.
If it was a second later, Trunks would have attack and killed 16.
Hearing Gohan's stop, although Trunks didn't understand why, he still obediently suppressed his violent Ki temporarily.
No. 16 stood there motionless, looked at Trunks vigilantly, and then looked at Gohan.
He was silent for a few seconds, then said in a low voice:" Are you Son Gohan?"
"Yes, I am." Gohan nodded and looked at him curiously.
After another short silence.
No. 16 continued: "You are different from what is recorded in the data."
Gohan said: "Of course I am different, because I am in my 20s now. When Dr. Gero died, I was only 9 years old, so the information in your database is probably just my childhood information."
Hearing the news of Dr. Gero's death, No. 16's pupils shrank obviously, but he soon regained his composure.
"It turns out that the Doctor is dead, that's a shame"
"Who is he?" He looked at Trunks.
In No. 16's database, there was no Trunks at all. It was a very old version.
Gohan said, "He is Trunks, the son of Vegeta."
Then he said, "No. 16, now that Dr. Gero is dead, do you still want to fight us? Or, what are your plans next."
No. 16 shook his head and said, "No, I don't like fighting."
He thought for a while, and then continued, "I don't know what I want to do. Maybe I will go wandering and finally live in the mountains to protect nature"
Gohan nodded, "Well, that's good. I know you love peace and nature, so if there is any crisis on Earth in the future, if you are able, please defend the Earth and protect this home together, okay?"
No. 16 looked at Gohan seriously, and then replied, "Yes."
His expression was as cold as ever. He spoke very little.
No. 16 nodded and said, "Can I leave now?"
Gohan stepped aside, made way, and said, "Okay, but No. 16, you have a powerful bomb on you. If you want to defuse it, you can come to me or Trunks. We will take you to see Bulma, and she can help you defuse it."
"OK, I got it."
No. 16 agreed, and then strode out of the laboratory.
Watching No. 16 leave, Trunks was very puzzled.
He asked Gohan in confusion: "Brother Gohan, what's going on?"
Gohan explained: "He is not the target we are looking for. Although No. 16 is also a very powerful android, he is not aggressive and will not harm the earth. It is good to keep him."
"Oh." Trunks responded with a half-understood sound, and then continued: "Brother Gohan, how do you know that No. 16 is not aggressive? No. 17 and No. 18 don't look fierce, but they are devil-like"
Gohan said:"I can't explain this to you, but if something unexpected really happens, I will personally destroy him."
"Okay, if you are not free, I can do it for you. By the way, Brother Gohan, we have already searched the lab, but there is no intelligent computer that is still making androids as you said.
Gohan pointed to the floor and said with a smile, "Who said we have already searched the lab? There is a secret base down there."
"Ah!!!" Trunks was shocked
"Watch carefully." Gohan's mouth curled up, and he stepped down with his right foot.
"boom!!!"
"Crack, crack, crack!"
The floor beneath my feet exploded, revealing a huge black hole.
"There really is something else going on down there." Trunks said in amazement
"Let's go down and take a look." Gohan said, taking the lead and jumping down from the dark cave.
Trunks followed closely behind.
In just two seconds, the two of them stood firmly in the basement.
The light in the basement was very dim, and the environment was not clear.
Trunks fumbled for a while and finally found the switch of the energy light. "Click", turn on the light. The originally dim basement instantly became bright.
The two finally saw the structure and area of the basement.
Compared with the spacious laboratory, this basement is several times smaller.
The structure is also very simple.
In the middle, a huge intelligent computer with a height of 3 meters and a width of 5 meters stood there. The screen was still glowing, indicating that it was still running on its own.
Intelligent computer There was also a machine half a person's height beside it, with a cylindrical transparent glass container upside down on top of the machine.
An energy tube as thick as a thigh connected the smart computer and the machine together.
The glass container was filled with green nutrient solution.
Small bubbles continued to form at the bottom of the nutrient solution, and finally all floated to the top of the glass container.
And in the center of the nutrient solution, an extremely ugly embryo was being nurtured.
It is Cell.
At this time, Cell had grown to the size of an arm, and although it curled up its body, its strong heartbeat could be heard.
Trunks pressed his palm on the transparent glass.
Cell's eyelids twitched, as if he could wake up at any time.
"Brother Gohan, is this the one you warn me about?" Trunks said.
Gohan nodded and said, "Yes, that's it."
Trunks said, "Why does it give me a familiar feeling?"
Gohan said, "Maybe it's because this guy has my cells in him"
"Ah, how come this monster has your cells?"
"That's because Dr. Gero used robot bees to collect cells from many strong people and fused these cells together to create this monster."
"As far as I know, it contains not only my cells, but also my father's and your father's cells."
"Dr. Gero has collected the cells of many of our friend. He even has cells from Frieza and King Cold in his body."
"What a bastard." Trunks was surprised.
Gohan said: "Trunks, please move aside first, I will kill it."
"Oh, okay." Trunks responded, and stepped aside decisively.
Gohan raised his hand, spread his five fingers, and a energy bomb blew up the glass container containing Cell's embryo.
"Boom!"
As the glass container exploded, the green nutrient solution splashed everywhere.
The Cell embryo, which had left the nutrient solution, rolled on the ground, then trembled and made a "squeak, squeak" sound.
It was like a dying and struggling animal.
Gohan mercilessly stepped on it, turning it into a pool of meat paste in an instant.
Then, he raised his hand and threw another blast of energy at the meat paste.
After a crackling sound, only a charred mark remained on the ground.
Cell embryo reduced to ashes.
