Summary:
#17 says that he has the incredible power of not being an artificial human, even though he is not Piccolo Daimaō. But he doesn’t care who he really is, he just wants to know where Goku is. However, Piccolo won’t say where he is. Number 17 says he will have to keep fighting until he wants to talk. And this time they will take it seriously. #17 approaches Piccolo as Piccolo charges up a bit. He then punches Piccolo in the face and Piccolo swings at him, but #17 dodges and lands a hard blow on Piccolo. He then punches Piccolo in the back, knocking him to the ground. But Piccolo gets up and does a few back flips to avoid a sweeping kick from No. 17. Piccolo breaks his neck and tells him that his speed is good but he has no weight in his punches. Number 17 looks surprised and can’t believe that the strongest in history is saying such things to him.
#17 rushes at Piccolo and Piccolo slashes at him, but #17 jumps over it and then lands behind Piccolo. He flies at Piccolo and hits him in the back before Piccolo kicks him hard. No. 17 punches Piccolo, knocking him back, but Piccolo flips over and headbutts No. 17. No. 17 goes flying, but gets caught and both are broken. Piccolo blocks a punch, then #17 blocks a knee shot and the two trade a few shots. Meanwhile, Cell flies towards them and says that the long awaited day has finally arrived when he will reach his perfect form. At the Kame house, Kuririn, Kame-Sen’nin and Tenshinhan are outside trying to keep up with the ongoing battle. Kuririn thinks Piccolo is doing great, but Tenshinhan is upset that he’s just sitting here.
Then Kuririn senses something approaching and Tenshinhan says it’s Cell. Chi-Chi comes out and tells Kuririn that Bulma is on the phone and said that she found a weak spot for artificial humans. Bulma says that #17 and #18 both have an emergency shutdown circuit. If you stop them from moving, they can be easily destroyed, and she made a controller for that. Kuririn asks her if she could bring it now since Piccolo is fighting one of them now and she says fine. Tenshinhan thinks it’s great, but Kuririn isn’t sure about destroying them. At God’s Palace, Gohan tells his father that Cell has started to move, but Goku already knows. Goku thinks he wants Vegeta to hurry up. “Vegeta is a genius. He should be over the Super Saiyan barrier by now.” Meanwhile #17 kicks Piccolo in the face and Piccolo blasts him like a counter and they break. Piccolo gasps and #17 says their power is the same but their difference in stamina is starting to show. His energy never goes down. But suddenly Piccolo goes crazy. Cell has arrived on the scene!
