Synopsis

Cell fires Goku's Kamehameha, of all things. Piccolo narrowly dodges it, but is caught by Cell, and has the life sucked out of his left arm. With Piccolo having no chance of winning, Cell reveals his true identity. He is an artificial human that Doctor Gero's computer created from the cells of Goku, Freeza, and others. Furthermore, he came to this era in the time machine in search of No. 17 and 18. After learning Cell's identity, Piccolo regenerates his arm and challenges Cell.
