Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Wherever the gas blast passed, objects, living things, and plants of any material were instantly reduced to ashes. Thick smoke billowed up, and Piccolo nodded in satisfaction at the destructive power he had displayed.

The powerful airflow and dazzling golden light gave Vegeta and Kakarot an incredibly powerful and exciting feeling.

Trunks naturally sensed it too and asked, "That wasn't Piccolo's doing, was it?"

Kakarot's ability to sense presence was far more acute than Piccolo's, so he said, "That's right, it's Piccolo. He's gotten stronger, that's amazing." Kakarot's face was also beaming with joy.

Piccolo's arm was still outstretched, and wisps of smoke rose from his five fingers. But at that moment, Cell's figure slowly transformed from a faint trace into a very real presence.

Cell appeared like a cicada, one leg on its knee and the other half bent. Its arms remained crossed in front of it. Its wings had retracted, and its massive tail had subsided considerably, hiding behind it.

Piccolo was quite surprised to see that Cell had actually taken his attack head-on.

Cell once again spoke in that same sharp voice, "I told you, Piccolo, don't think the people of this city are pathetic, because you will soon end up just like them."

Bick clenched his fists, as if ready to fight at any moment.

"Where did you hear the name Bick from?" This had been puzzling Bick.

Chapter 779 Cell, who possesses Kakarot's aura!

Unexpectedly, Cell replied, "Because I'm your brother!" Such a ridiculous answer. It was as if he were mocking him.

"Damn it, how dare you toy with me like this!" Piccolo's aura intensified once more, the burst of energy clearly visible. Let me tell you, I'm not just Piccolo the Great Demon King anymore, because I'm going to knock you to the ground right now.

"You mean you're not Piccolo Daimaō?" Cell seemed not to quite believe Piccolo's words.

"That's exactly what I mean. You've wiped out all the people here, which gives me the perfect opportunity to unleash my full power without any worries." Piccolo's fighting spirit was instantly reignited.

Kami sensed Piccolo's power and was naturally pleased, but worried that Piccolo might lose his reason in the pursuit of power, he wanted to offer some advice. After all, his experience was superior to Piccolo's.

But at this moment, seemingly unwilling to explain further, Cell continued, "What do you mean by that? What exactly do you mean?"

What I mean is, "I'm going to use all my strength! That's all," and then I instantly appeared next to Cell.

Caught off guard, Cell was struck by Piccolo's sudden punch, his head flying off his neck.

Cell, who had been punched, seemed to have a slight bleeding at the corner of his mouth due to the force of the punch.

This seemed to be the first time Cell had been treated like this since he took his form. It was as if, back in the future, he could have killed Trunks in just two seconds; such a thing had never happened. So, he was somewhat enraged.

He made a funny move, bending his legs at a 90-degree angle and leaping into the air. Then he placed his middle and index fingers together in front of his forehead, started heating them up, and whoosh! A red shockwave flew towards Piccolo.

While still on the ground, they wanted to see what tricks Cell could pull off, and then they saw this familiar move.

"This, this is..." The aura that Cell just released was real; it wasn't just his own aura, but also someone else's.

But he couldn't think about that now. Although he was surprised, he could clearly feel that Cell hadn't fully unleashed his power. Cell was like a master with many martial arts skills, but he hadn't been able to use them.

Piccolo dodged the attack in the blink of an eye.

Just as Piccolo had expected, the red gas blast powerfully pierced through the spot he had just occupied, but it did not track him down.

What makes this move truly remarkable is not only its immense power, but also its tracking ability.

Therefore, if Cell were to truly unleash his full power, Piccolo would still feel some reservations.

Cell, however, did not sense this problem. He looked at the red laser that had been spinning earlier with satisfaction, thinking that Piccolo would realize how powerful he was.

Unexpectedly, Piccolo once again disregarded him, saying, "So this is all the strength you have? I thought you had some unfathomable power. It seems I overestimated you. I take back what I said earlier."

Cell, hearing Piccolo's disdain for his power, said, "Although I haven't reached my full form yet, you're quite an opponent who can fight me to a standstill."

Piccolo wasn't paying attention to Cell praising him, but rather to the first part of Cell's sentence. Cell was going to become the Perfect form?

Because Piccolo, and even Kami, didn't fully understand Cell's origins, Piccolo's feigned anger was a test of Cell. Hearing about his Perfect form now is a valuable piece of information.

Piccolo seized the opportunity to ask, "Is this how you absorb humans in order to become what you call the perfect form?"

Cell scoffed, "These lowly ants are not worthy of being the evolutionary material for the great Cell. I absorb them only because they are the energy source for my actions."

Upon hearing this, Piccolo knew that there were some things about Cell that he didn't know, and his intuition told him that he had to find out more about the monster in front of him.

Piccolo continued, "So who exactly put you in the time machine? This is a very important question, and one of the questions Piccolo cares about most."

Cell was momentarily stunned to hear that Piccolo knew the answer to this question. He chuckled, "Telling you won't hurt, since you're about to become a dead man anyway. I delivered myself here, so how about that? Are you satisfied with the answer, my King Piccolo!"

"What? You brought yourself here? How is that possible? If you didn't want to tell me, fine, but we're powerful people, no, you're not human, so don't try to fool me like this!" Piccolo pretended to be very disbelieving and disdainful.

Seeing that the other person seemed not to believe him, Cell explained, "I know where your problem lies. You think that I'm too big to fit into the time machine, right?"

Bick nodded slightly.

However, to be honest, I did do something I didn't want to do, but I had no choice; I had to do it.

In order to get into the time machine, I degenerated myself into an egg.

Only then could I ride the time machine to get here, and the time machine certainly did not disappoint me; on the contrary, it brought me many surprises.

But Cell seemed to stop there after saying that. He said, "I didn't expect you to know about time machines, but even if you do, there's something else you definitely don't know."

As he spoke, Cell clasped his hands together, making a gesture that was remarkably similar to Goku's – the Kamehameha Wave!

Cell looked at Piccolo's dazed expression with satisfaction, and then unleashed the God Turtle Breath Wave. With each word he uttered, Cell's confidence grew.

..............

Chapter 780 Is Piccolo going to be drained dry?

Kakarot also felt his own presence actually appear there. How could this be! How could this be? Kakarot was also incredulous.

Not to mention Kakarot, Piccolo, who was on the scene, was even more shocked by the familiar aura of his best comrade-in-arms. The aura of his most familiar Kamehameha Wave was being fired at him.

Piccolo still couldn't quite believe it was real, muttering repeatedly, "How is this possible? The Turtle Breath Wave?"

So Piccolo was hit by the Kamehameha wave before he could even recover from his disbelief.

Because the battlefield had long been destroyed and the sandy ground was covered in dust, the billowing smoke became even thicker.

Although Bick was not seriously injured, he lost his sight due to the thick smoke.

Cell, seeing that his plan seemed to have succeeded, quietly came up behind Piccolo and, taking advantage of the moment when Piccolo wasn't paying attention, wrapped his arms and legs around Piccolo like a koala.

At that moment, the two grown men joined forces.

Bick sensed something was wrong, but it was too late. He struggled desperately, but he couldn't break free of his restraints.

Cell didn't waste such a good opportunity. He controlled his huge tail and quickly and forcefully tried to insert it into Piccolo's chest to absorb this powerful energy body.

Bick thought to himself, "This is bad."

But unfortunately, he had no strength left to break free, and even if he did, it would be too late. Seeing the pinhole-like model on Cell's tail about to pierce his chest, Piccolo instinctively mustered his last ounce of strength, knowing that if his chest were penetrated, and recalling the wealthy man's situation, he would surely die there.

So with a sway of his body, he let Cell's tail slip into his strong arm.

With a cry of "Ah!", Piccolo seemed to feel excruciating pain, but compared to the pain in his chest, this was the best possible outcome.

Cell, seeing that Piccolo had escaped unscathed, but not realizing it wasn't a big deal, said, "You managed to block it with your arm, but it doesn't seem to make much difference to me."

Because I will still drain you dry. Just think, your enormous energy body is like absorbing the essence of tens of thousands of people. If I had known you would come, I wouldn't have gone through all that trouble of absorbing those humans one by one. It was a complete waste of time, and compared to you, their cultivation levels were far inferior.

Cell, as if impatient, tightened his grip on Piccolo's limbs once more, as if to immobilize Piccolo. Then, with a whoosh, his tail sucked the energy from Piccolo's strong arms into his own body. The wonderful feeling was like an addict enjoying the sensation he desired, so comfortable that Cell couldn't help but groan.

Normally, Piccolo wouldn't allow such intimate contact, even with his close friend Kakarot, so he felt disgusted. However, he was helpless because his mobility was restricted in this way, and he had no way to do anything about it. The pain of his own flesh being ripped away pushed Piccolo to the brink of mental collapse.

Cell seemed to be immersed in a comfortable enjoyment, and after the first time, while still savoring the experience, he took another one.

With a whoosh, Piccolo's once strong arms visibly shrank.

"Ah!" Piccolo couldn't help but scream in agony again, his pig-like howl clearly audible for a radius of a hundred meters!

Kami and Piccolo were now one, and Kami could clearly sense what Piccolo was feeling. Kami, already aged, was further weakened by this torment. Each extraction caused them excruciating pain, as if they were about to be separated, as if Piccolo was displaying two faces.

Cell said smugly, "Anyway, I'm almost draining you dry, so just relax and I'll make your process less painful."

It's clear that Bick's arm is almost gone, only half of it remains, and it looks terrible compared to his other arm.

Because his energy was absorbed, Piccolo's aura dissipated significantly in an instant.

Even Krillin sensed it and asked, "Who the hell is this guy fighting Piccolo? How can he be so terrifying? Kakarot, are you confident?"

Kakarot shook his head and said, "Piccolo's strength is now about the same as mine, but now his aura has dissipated so much. I'm a little confused, but I will definitely do my best."

Trunks replied, "This guy must be the one who came to this world in my time machine. I can sense that the aura on that strange egg is very similar to this guy's."

However, I don't know why, but he was able to perfectly fuse the ki of Goku, Vegeta's father, Piccolo, Frieza, and me together. But I know that his control is not perfect yet, otherwise Piccolo would have no chance to fight back at all.

Kakarot seemed to agree with this view, saying, "Yes, if so many powerful individuals were perfectly fused together, the strength would be terrifying."

Having thought this through, everyone had a general understanding, and their eyes became somewhat heavy.

While watching TV inside Master Roshi's house, Lee Soo-won, Master Roshi, Launch, and Bulma suddenly saw an announcement on the screen.

The TV host said, "We have received news that the troops stationed in Xidu have finally been deployed to the city of Xinengaen for investigation. This is the best-equipped army in the country, and we hope their involvement will ensure the safety of the city."

Chapter 781 Piccolo with the One-Armed Arm.

The host seemed to have gained confidence as he spoke these words. However, Li Xiuyuan disdained to listen to the host's nonsense.

If a Primordial Grand Luo Immortal could be eliminated by humans using an army, would it still be called a Primordial Grand Luo Immortal?

However, Li Xiuyuan did not want to disturb the hopes of his two women and others, so he sat silently on the sofa and continued to watch the lively drama unfold.

I felt like I was being treated like a VIP, and I kept admiring myself.

The TV host continued, "Our reporter seems to have captured some footage on site, so we will immediately show you the most authentic situation."
