Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 1711 Cell's Strength

Most of the impact force seemed to sink into the sea, failing to penetrate as intended and causing devastating internal damage.

Instead, an incredibly strong and scorching force rebounded from the sunken "dough," causing Cell's arm bones to emit a faint hum!

"What kind of bizarre body structure is this?"

A sense of unease began to creep into Sharu's mind.

Fat Buu's feelings, however, are more direct and negative.

Although he managed to deflect most of the impact thanks to his incredible physical abilities, the sheer hardness and penetrating power of Cell's punch still caused him pain.

It was a pain he hadn't experienced in a long time, a pain originating from a substantial energy level and physical intensity of suppression.

"So hard! You jerk!"

A hint of annoyance and pain flashed in Fat Buu's small black eyes.

His childlike thinking made him even more unhappy.

In that split second when Fat Buu was slightly stiffened by the setback in his punch, Cell's combat experience and the countless fighting master techniques contained in his genes were already on full display.

Before his right arm, which was clenched into a fist, had fully retracted, his unusually long left leg, covered in green spots and with its joints bent backward, was like a long-awaited poisonous whip, tearing through the air and striking Fat Buu's round, angry face with perfect precision, leaving a trail of afterimages!

Snapped!
A crisper, yet more teeth-grinding sound exploded out.

The force of that kick was so terrifying that Fat Buu's entire face deformed and twisted instantly in a visible manner. The enormous impact caused his spherical body to roll backward at high speed like a ball that had been powerfully blasted, smashing through several lava-like protrusions along the way. Finally, he crashed into the edge of the pit wall hundreds of meters away, creating a spiderweb-like crack before barely stopping his retreat.

Cell slowly retracted his long leg, his posture elegant and composed, as if the earth-shattering blow just now was merely a casual remark.

He hovered in mid-air, his cicada-wing-like wings on his back trembling slightly and emitting a low hum.

He looked down at the blasted-away Fat Buu, his face once again displaying that smile that was a mixture of coldness and interest.

"It seems your body is special, but not invincible."

Cell's voice carried a hint of amusement.

"Warm-up over, Fatty. If this is all you're capable of, then I'm going to break you down and study your composition carefully."

Smoke and dust slowly drifted away from the edge of the deep pit.

Fat Buu stood up from the shattered glass rock. He shook his head, and his distorted cheeks quickly returned to normal like a memory sponge, leaving not a trace.

But the anger in those small, dark eyes had subsided, replaced by a purer, more focused light—the gaze of someone who, after being thoroughly provoked, was preparing to take things seriously.

He raised his short fingers and touched the spot where he had been kicked. Although the shape had returned to normal, the pain seemed to still linger faintly.

"you……"

Fat Buu's voice was no longer angry; instead, it became somewhat deep, even carrying an eerie calm. "You hurt Buu."

The moment he finished speaking, the pink muscles on his body seemed to swell slightly, not because of a huge change in size, but because of an increase in density and an acceleration of internal energy circulation.

An aura far more oppressive, more violent, and more primal and chaotic than before began to uncontrollably emanate from his seemingly comical, round body, like an ancient beast awakening from its slumber.

The surrounding air became viscous, and tiny pebbles began to float slightly in the air, defying gravity. The gravity parameters of the entire battlefield seemed to be distorted by this aura.

Cell's extremely keen senses immediately detected the essential change in this aura.

The crimson light in his eyes intensified once more, and the Saiyan cells within his body roared with almost jubilation and longing!

Fighting, evolving, and challenging stronger opponents—this is the core desire in his genes!
"That's true."

Cell licked his reptilian lips, raised his hands slightly, and assumed a more aggressive and imposing starting stance. His energy began to circulate efficiently and inwardly, entering his optimal battle state.

"Let me see just how far this peculiar life form can entertain me."

Fat Buu's current strength is equivalent to Super Saiyan 3 Goku seven years later, with his base fighting power increased, or greater than Super Saiyan 2 Goku. Super Saiyan 3 is four times stronger than Super Saiyan 2, so Fat Buu's strength falls within this range.

Cell is not the Cell of the original timeline. He first triggered the Saiyan's mechanism of being on the verge of death and then recovering, gaining several times the power. Then, he absorbed Piccolo and Piccolo's assimilation, making him dozens of times stronger than the Cell of the original timeline from the first stage. Finally, he absorbed Android 17 and 18, evolving into a more powerful Perfect form than the Cell of the original timeline.

From a purely numerical perspective, the current Perfect Cell is at least dozens of times stronger than his original self in the original timeline, surpassing Lightning Cell. However, the Perfect Cell in the original timeline was only stronger than Super Saiyan 1 at full power, yet he was easily defeated by Gohan, who had just transformed into Super Saiyan 2, with just a few punches, and felt despair.

As is well known, the fighting power of Super Saiyan 2 is almost twice that of Super Saiyan 1, or even more.

这里说的2倍是超1极限的两倍，也就是超级1第4个阶段的两倍，若是刚变身的超1，那么超2是它的十倍以上了。

The most important benchmark is that Goku and Vegeta said that Dabura is equivalent to Cell Seven Years Ago, which is comparable to Super Saiyan 2 Gohan Seven Years Ago. However, Gohan has been neglecting his training, and Vegeta said that he is now weaker than him.

Gohan once surpassed everyone, but now Goku and Vegeta have surpassed him again.

Following this logic, Cell's current fighting strength is quite obvious.

At the heart of the battlefield, two immense auras, powerful enough to shake the stars, finally completed their final preparation, like two interstellar tides about to collide.

All expressions vanished from Fat Buu's once round and comical face, leaving only an empty, almost pure rage.

A wisp of pink mist began to emanate from his body, a manifestation of highly condensed life energy and chaotic magic overflowing outwards. Wherever the mist passed, the space emitted a subtle "sizzling" sound, as if it were being slowly eroded.

Without warning, in the next instant—

"Boom!!!"

It was as if two planets had collided violently!

The violent shock wave spread wildly in all directions in a spherical shape. Wherever it passed, the earth shattered and rolled up like a fragile biscuit, and was forcibly sheared down by tens of meters!
