Synopsis

Perfect form Cell informs the defeated Trunks that he will open a tournament in ten days, and then flies off. Vegeta and Kuririn find Trunks after rushing to the island, but the injured Artificial Human No. 16 appears, saying he wants to enter the tournament, and asks for his body to be repaired. Kuririn complies, and the three of them and No. 16 head to Capsule Corporation. Kame-Sen'nin, Yamcha, Chiaotzu, Chi-Chi and the rest all come there as well. Meanwhile, in a field, Cell creates an arena out of stone.
