"The Artificial Humans vs Cell" is the three hundred and sixty-ninth chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1992 #19 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Summary
Piccolo gets pissed that Cell is here, he had not noticed since he was so focused on fighting. No. 17 wonders what this weird guy is, and Piccolo is surprised the artificial humans do not know about Cell. Cell says this is the day he will combine with No. 17 and No. 18 and finally reach his perfect form. He looks at the artificial humans: No. 17. No. 18.......?! He does not know who the other one is, but he must be one of Doctor Gero's other artificial humans since he has the Red Ribbon Army mark on his chest. But he does not matter, he is an older model. Cell steps down from the rocks he is perched on, and starts powering up, blowing up the surrounding area in the process. He walks right past Piccolo, who is too shocked to try to stop him. But then Piccolo asks how many lives he sacrificed to power up so much, and Cell says they were not sacrifices. They should feel honored to be a part of his power.
Kuririn says Cell has powered up a lot, and Tenshinhan thinks it is all over. The Turtle Hermit says no matter how fast Bulma comes with the controller, it will still take her twenty minutes. Kuririn says he will go fly and get it, since he can fly much faster than Bulma's plane, and he flies off. Tenshinhan says he is going to aid Piccolo. Even if he is of no help, it is better than just standing around here, and he flies off, ignoring the Turtle Hermit's objections. The Turtle Hermit regrets that the once "World's Greatest Muten Rōshi" cannot do anything as he is now. Back at the battlefield, No. 17 tells Cell to leave, he is in the way, and he was busy playing with Piccolo. Piccolo then yells out, "No. 17!!! He plans to kill and absorb you!!! Get out of here!!!!!"
Before No. 17 can really react, Cell suddenly strikes at No. 17 with his tail, and No. 17 just barely manages to get away. Cell continues trying to get him with his tail, while No. 17 barely dodges. Then Cell grabs his wrist and slams him into the ground. Cell tries to get him with his tail while he is down, but Piccolo suddenly kicks Cell in the face, saving him. No. 17 gets up, and asks Piccolo why this monster wants to absorb him. "I'll say it simply. His name is Cell, and he was created by Doctor Gero's computer. He is still incomplete, and he must absorb you and No. 18 to reach his perfect form." Cell tries to tell him it will be great to be a part of his perfect super power. The ultimate warrior Doctor Gero spent so many years working on. No. 17 does not intend to get absorbed, and says he already is the ultimate warrior anyway. Cell says it does not matter if he intends to or not, it has already been decided that he will be absorbed. No. 17 says he is going to shut Cell up.
No. 16 yells for No. 17 to run away, this enemy's battle power is far too great. No. 16 calmly says they must not allow this monster to reach his perfect form. His aim does not seem to be Son Goku's death, but the destruction of the whole universe. No. 17 will not listen though, and rushes at Cell, but gets pounded to the ground as Piccolo runs in to help.
