"Prevent It! Cell's Perfect Form" is the three hundred and seventy-third chapter of the Dragon Ball manga series by Akira Toriyama. It was first published in Japan in the 1992 #23 issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump.
Summary
Cell's second form: more human-shaped and pretty muscular. His feet have become smoothed out, like he is wearing boots, and his hands have become more human-like. His face is more human-shaped as well, with lips, human eyes as opposed to the snake-like ones he had before, and no nose. Cell looks over at the artificial humans and smirks, then No. 16 grabs No. 18 by the arm and flies off. Cell darts off, and instantly appears in front of them, though, and No. 16 cannot believe his speed. Tenshinhan thinks this is awful, and then decides he will do something about it. "Sorry, Chiaotzu. I'll probably die." Cell says they will not get away from him, and says the speed was a surprise to even him. It is obviously from absorbing No. 17, and Cell wonders if it is the same with his power.
No. 16 hits Cell with a really hard punch to the face, but Cell just smirks, completely unaffected. Then he puts his hand right up to No. 16's face and blasts him. He hits the ground hard, with his head smoking. Cell says his power has gone way up too. He turns to No. 18, and says it is her turn now. She puts her hand on her chest, and tells Cell if he gets any closer, she will blow herself up, and he would not want that. Then Cell starts talking with No. 17's voice. He says it feels good to be a part of Cell, and she should also get absorbed and become a part of this ultimate life form. No. 18 is a bit uncertain, but No. 16, with a big part of his head missing, says not to listen, Cell is just using No. 17's voice. Cell tells him to shut up, a robot would not understand how they feel. Then he turns back to No. 18, and tells her to not fret and come gain this highest power. Together they can fulfill "Doctor Gero-sama's" will to defeat Son Goku, and take over the whole world.
"You're not No. 17!! We despised Doctor Gero for just taking us and modifying us to suit his own purposes!! He would never even accidentally say 'Doctor Gero-sama'!!" Cell says if he moves fast enough, he could get there in time to prevent her from blowing herself up. No. 18 looks nervous, and Cell laughs and tells her to give it up. Then Cell notices something, and looks up to spot Tenshinhan, overflowing with power. With his hands forming a triangle, Tenshinhan announces his Shin Kikōhō, and fires it down on Cell. This is definitely much more powerful than the regular Kikōhō, and it creates a giant pit in the ground. Tenshinhan yells at No. 18 to stop standing there and get out of here, as Cell starts to fly up from the pit. Tenshinhan fires another Shin Kikōhō down at Cell, and No. 18 runs over to No. 16, asking him if he can fly. Tenshinhan fires yet another one. Meanwhile, Goku yells out, "Give it up, stop!! Stop it, Tenshinhan!!! If you keep using the Kikōhō like this, you'll die!!!"
