NOTE: Fairy Tail doesn't like Cell because he's an evil bug man that kills people. They support Krillin's decision, because they are a guild that chooses their bonds over anything else. I'm glad you guys liked the Cid reference.
They will ONLY see the Buu Saga and that's it. I'm not going to have them watch Super or GT, because I don't want to be doing this "Fairy Tail" reacts for too long. If you want to do it, then do it yourself.
Review and Enjoy
Chapter 72: Flashpoint
(cut to Goku and Gohan inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber)
GOKU: All righty, Gohan. I hope you got plenty of sleep. 'Cause today, we're gonna do some special training!
"I'm a big fan of special training, right Happy?" Natsu asked.
"Yeah, like all that training we did before!" Happy replied.
"But, nothing about you changed, Happy," Lucy sweat dropped.
GOHAN: This is going to be utterly terrifying or completely silly, isn't it? There is no in-between with you.
"If there was then everything would be easier," Erza sighed.
GOKU: Naw. We're just gonna focus on a little bit of basic combat training that Piccolo told me you've been struggling with…
Mira froze at those words, knowing exactly what Piccolo had to have told Goku. "He wouldn't…"
"You know he will, Sis," Lisanna replied. The youngest sibling could only sigh as her sister kept twitching in agitation.
GOHAN: ...No, you aren't...
GOKU: Today, I'ma teach you...how to dodge.
" !" Mira spoke through gritted teeth.
GOHAN: I really don't think you-
GOKU: YAH! (powers up into his Super Saiyan form, which knocks Gohan back) Now, this is gonna be a Super Saiyan blast! As a non-Super Saiyan, you have no option but to dodge it!
"He really carries that "I don't give a shit" energy," Laxus said.
"This is irresponsible and stupid! All at the same time!" Yukino pointed out.
"I don't see what you guys are so worried about. Gohan is going to be fine!" Natsu replied, shrugging. He felt a deep chill up his spine, turning his head to see Mira glaring at him.
"For your sake, he better be fine, Natsu. Or I won't feed you for the next 10 weeks," Mira threatened. The Fire Dragon Slayer gulped in fear, hoping that Gohan really will be fine.
GOHAN: Dad, you really need to listen!
GOKU: Because if you don't dodge this, you'll almost certainly, probably, definitely die!
"I'm going to kill him!" Mira shouted.
"T-There's gotta be better ways for Gohan to become a Super Saiyan. This shouldn't be necessary, right?" Wendy asked. Though, nobody answered her question.
GOHAN: Dad, I'm serious!
"So is he," Makarov sighed.
GOKU: Ready? And... (begins charging a blast)
GOHAN: (thinking) Damn you, Pavlov…
"That certainly made a return. Though, not in the way that I would've expected," Levy mentions.
GOKU: HA! (releases the blast at Gohan, who manages to catch it, but struggles to hold it)
"GOHAN!" Multiple people cry out for the young lad.
GOHAN: (thinking) Mr. Piccolo! Krillin! Anyone! No... Nobody is here to save me this time. To save me like always. I can't run from this. I can't dodge this. Well, if I can't dodge... If I can't dodge... Then...! (transforms into a Super Saiyan for the first time and shoots the blast back at Goku)
The worry held within the mages instantly turned into one of cheer and celebration at Gohan finally achieving Super Saiyan.
Levy popped open her notebook to add the scene to Gohan's entry. "Gohan realizes that he can't rely on other people to always save him. This realization and his father's willingness to push him finally brought forth the Super Saiyan within him."
GOKU: Whoa! (narrowly dodges the blast, which explodes in the distance, and looks at Gohan with really excited eyes) Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee! (lands near Gohan, who is struggling to maintain his new form) Well, look at you. And for a moment there, I thought you were actually gonna dodge.
"CAN YOU CALM HIM DOWN!?" Mira screamed, seeing that Gohan was struggling to even maintain the form.
GOKU: Good thing that was only half-strength, or... (Gohan is still seen struggling) Yeah, the first time is pretty intense. My first time was with Freezer.
"Oh my~" Cana wiggles her eyebrows.
"Cana please!" Lucy whines.
GOKU: And, boy, was that rough! (Gohan is once again shown struggling) ...So, who wants a haircut?
"I think a haircut is the least of Gohan's problems right now," Sting chuckled.
[OPENING SEQUENCE]
(cut to the battlefield where Perfect Cell is testing out his new strength by throwing a few punches in the air as Vegeta, Trunks and Krillin, who has tears in his eyes, watch on)
Now that the scene was back on the situation outside of the Time Chamber, the mages felt that chill from earlier return.
"Ugh, I really wanted to ignore this," Yukino shivered.
PERFECT CELL: So, who's first?
KRILLIN: GIVE HER BACK! (fires his Kienzan at Perfect Cell, which hits him directly in his neck, but shatters after it passes through)
"The one time he actually remembers to use it...it doesn't even work," Levy gaped at the scene.
"Huh? Really makes you wonder if it would've worked any of the previous time if he did remember," Gray said.
Juvia was trying not to cry, finding it tragic that Krillin lost the love that he was finally looking for and that 18 was forcefully taken from 16 and her true love.
PERFECT CELL: Ah... (turns his head around) A volunteer. (kicks Krillin hard in the neck, sending him flying through a plateau and several feet across the ground) (Krillin Owned Count: 35)
TRUNKS: Krillin! Are you okay?!
"No, he is not ok," Carla answered.
"Why would you even need to ask that?" Lector asked.
KRILLIN: (whines)
TRUNKS: Do you need a Senzu Bean?!
"What a dumbass question," Laxus pinched his nose.
KRILLIN: (whines again)
TRUNKS: You're right, that is a stupid question.
(Trunks rushes off to help Krillin while Perfect Cell throws a few more punches in the air to clear the smoke and looks over to 16)
PERFECT CELL: Hey.
ANDROID 16: Hello.
PERFECT CELL: So, are we cool?
"No! You are not cool! You took his family from him, you asshole!" Wendy shouted. Everyone did a double take from Wendy's cursing, not knowing just how much this affected the young Dragon Slayer.
ANDROID 16: You ate my family!
PERFECT CELL: Hey, don't lose your head! They were my family, too.
"No they weren't! Family wouldn't absorb each other or try to kill each other!" Wendy refuted. Her attention was so focused on the Lacrama that she missed the nervousness from all the other Fairies.
VEGETA: (lands next to Perfect Cell and crosses his arms) So you broke the bald one's neck. Bravo, I hope you're not too proud of yourself.
"I hope you're proud of getting everyone killed," Erza glared.
PERFECT CELL: Oh, Prince... I am proud. Not of that, no. But of you. It takes a big man-not necessarily a tall one-to do what you did. Sticking to your guns and just throwing everyone's lives away.
"Agreed, out of everything Vegeta has ever done since he first showed up this is the dumbest thing! Like, you'd think he would've learned after Frieza transformed MULTIPLE times and even killed him. But, no he didn't. It's like any progress he may have made got regressed the moment he went Super Saiyan," Levy ranted. Levy couldn't believe she was agreeing with Cell, but at this point they all were agreeing with it.
PERFECT CELL: And for that, I tip my- Huh! What is that on my head? Would you call it a crown? 16, would you call this a crown?
ANDROID 16: I hate you.
"I hate it too," Wendy agreed with 16.
PERFECT CELL: We'll call it a crown.
"It kinda does look like a crown," Romeo mentions.
(cut to Krillin gasping for breath after getting fed a Senzu Bean from Trunks)
TRUNKS: Oh, good, the Senzu worked! You know, it's too bad you don't have Saiyan biology. At this point, you'd probably be unstoppable.
"Never thought about it that way," Natsu began thinking about Krillin as a Saiyan. Though, Krillin was still bald as a Super Saiyan.
KRILLIN: I know, right?! Also, Vegeta's gonna die.
"Hallelujah!" Minerva cheered. While she celebrated the thought of Vegeta dying, everyone else was curious about Krillin's statement.
TRUNKS: What? How do you-?
KRILLIN: Trunks, do you have any idea how many times I've been hit by someone stronger than me since I became an adult?
"Raditz."
"Nappa."
"Vegeta."
"Recoome."
"Frieza."
"Cell in that dream of his."
"Then the real Cell."
TRUNKS: How would I know that?
KRILLIN: Every time! Barring your mother and Chi-Chi... Literally, every time!
TRUNKS: ...And?
KRILLIN: And I know when someone's holding back...Trunks.
"What?" Everyone paused at Krillin's claim.
TRUNKS: Okay, I can explain.
"Yes, please explain how you could've prevented all of this from happening!" Kagura yelled.
KRILLIN: I don't think you can.
"He really can't. Nothing is going to explain not just killing Cell when you had the chance!" Yukino yelled.
(cut over to Vegeta and Perfect Cell)
VEGETA: All right, "Perfect Cell"...
PERFECT CELL: Mmm, love the ring to that…
"Guess we're going with that then," Levy wrote the name down.
VEGETA: I'm going to enjoy wearing down the knuckles on these gloves.
"I could make a joke, but I'm better than that," Gajeel snickered.
PERFECT CELL: Okay, I know that wasn't supposed to sound sexual, but...
VEGETA: Now, if you don't mind, it's time to turn your little coming-out party into a funeral.
PERFECT CELL: And, time's up. Prince, while there's absolutely nothing I'd rather do than stand here and listen to you bluster at me until the heat death of the universe, I literally have a million better things to do. So, here's the deal. I want you to hit me as hard as you can.
"I do that to everyone. I don't see how that changes anything," Natsu said.
VEGETA: Oh, is that righ-?
PERFECT CELL: Now, hold on. You might have misheard me. (Vegeta scoffs) Not half as hard, not some arbitrary percentage... I want you. To hit me. As hard. As. You. Can.
"I think that's the first time I've ever heard a bad guy genuinely ask to get punched in the face. It's usually the other way around," Gildarts mentioned.
VEGETA: And if I don't play along?
PERFECT CELL: Well, then, I guess your father was right about you.("If you wanted him to hit you, then that'll do it," Laxus muttered.) (Vegeta lashes out and kicks him hard in the head, which has absolutely no effect on him) Ooh... Consider that nerve touched!
VEGETA: Wha-? (leaps back) Ugh! How?!
"And this is where the Prince's mighty castle falls," Minerva felt like she was going to enjoy what happens next.
PERFECT CELL: Because, Prince. Like a soon-to-be broken man once said, "You're either perfect...or you're not me." (kicks Vegeta in the stomach, sending him flying through a couple of plateaus before he manages to stop himself in midair)
Minerva broke into a fit of laughter, enjoying seeing Vegeta's words getting turned on him so quickly.
"Does that count as a callback? Though it was in the last episode?" Levy questions.
VEGETA: ...I'm okay! I'm, uh... (now sounding a bit slurred) I'm, uh... (stops glowing) Fuuuuuu... (collapses down into the water)
(cut over to Krillin and Trunks)
KRILLIN: You've been holding back this entire time!
TRUNKS: Okay, you're right! When I was training in the Time Chamber, I found a way to surpass my father. But he doesn't know! And if he found out…
"What? He'd throw a hissy fit? The fool throws a temper tantrum if he doesn't get his milk and cookies before bed!" Makarov shouted.
"I understand that he wants his father's love. That ever since he met the man, he's received nothing but animosity from him. And it's only recently that Vegeta has seemed to have warmed up to him even if it's just a bit. But, at the end of the day saving the world comes first. You can deal with Vegeta's temper tantrum after everything is said and done," Laxus said.
KRILLIN: Then he'd be mad at you?! Listen, I like the guy, but his default emotion is angry!
TRUNKS: It's more than anger, it's pride! It would shatter him!
"I think you lying to him would hurt his pride more," Gajeel said.
KRILLIN: And because of that, 18 had to die?!
TRUNKS: What does it matter?! That was your plan the entire- (sees tears forming in Krillin's eyes)
Juvia hugged Gray tighter, feeling Krillin's pain. She was a bit shocked when his arm wrapped around her torso, but she didn't say a word or make any movement.
TRUNKS: Oh... Shit. ...Wait, where is my father?
"That's never a good question to ask," Lucy said.
(cut to Vegeta resurfacing on shore)
PERFECT CELL: See, Prince? That's what you get for not listening. But, since I know you have trouble following directions, I'm gonna give you one last chance. You. Me. Hard as you can. Are we clear?
VEGETA: (visibly pissed) Crystal. (begins to float up)
"He's gonna do something. That's Vegeta's "I'm gonna blow things up" face!" Happy shouted.
KRILLIN: Maybe you should tell him before he does something completely reckless!
TRUNKS: There is literally nothing left that he could do to make this situation worse. Save blowing up the planet. (cut to Vegeta screaming and outstretching both his arms to begin charging an extremely powerful attack).
"You guys really need to watch what you say," Minerva growled.
TRUNKS: He is going to blow up the planet!
KRILLIN: BUT I LIVE HERE!
There were some giggles from Krillin's outburst.
(cut back to Vegeta charging up energy as Perfect Cell watches on with an unimpressed look. Vegeta then thrusts both his arms forward, with lightning striking out between his palms)
Once more the Guildhall began to shake and rumble, a giant surge of power was sent radiating through the guild. Everyone could feel the energy that Vegeta was building up, like a volcano about to erupt.
PERFECT CELL: Oh, that's much better! I can actually feel that!
VEGETA: In mere moments... All you'll be feeling is OBLIVION!
"He's really lost his mind at this point. To resort to blowing up the entire planet just to win," Jellal shook from the pulsating energy from Vegeta.
"It's Vegeta after all, he's always resorted to extremes whenever he was pushed to his limits. In his battle with Goku, with Recoome, and Frieza. Launching a giant attack to beat them, but this feels like a completely different level," Erza explained.
PERFECT CELL: That, or disappointment. Go ahead...flip that coin. (cut to Vegeta forming an energy ball in palms)
"Tempting him will only end badly! The thing is, I just don't know for who at this point," Freed was reminded of Laxus whenever the Dragon Slayer charged up his attacks. The raw power that was being charged up was too large to be ignored.
TRUNKS: Father! Your pride isn't worth destroying the planet! Come on!
KRILLIN/Lucy: Way past the bargaining stage here...
VEGETA: FINAL FLASH! (fires a massive blast directly at Perfect Cell)
PERFECT CELL: Aw, how cute! He named it-OH, SHIT! (gets engulfed by the blast as it's seen travelling straight on into outer space)
Nobody could make a move as they watched in shock all by the enormous amount of energy that Vegeta released at Cell. That attack surpassed anything they've ever seen in their entire lives.
"If Acnologia was hit by that, he'd be incinerated in an instant. Not even an atom would be life," Jellal gaped.
"To think Vegeta was holding that much power...that had to have done something to Cell. If not hurt, then kill it!" Erza said.
KRILLIN: Ah, cool. He missed the planet.
"And that proves that Vegeta is sane enough to not just kill himself in the process," Freed agreed.
TRUNKS: Thank God he's not completely insane. "Completely" being the operative word.
VEGETA: *panting* Hard enough for you?
(as the dust clears, Perfect Cell is now seen missing his right arm and a portion of his torso from Vegeta's attack)
"HOW DID IT NOT KILL IT COMPLETELY!?" Everyone asked, shocked.
"Cell must've dodged the blast at the last second. It seemed to have realized that the attack was way more dangerous than it originally realized," Freed guessed.
"That explains Cell's reaction after he tried to make fun of the attack," Kagura said.
"Tch! I-It was nothing impressive!" Minerva spat angrily. She didn't want to admit that Vegeta's attack had scared her.
KRILLIN: Bonus! It actually did something!
TRUNKS: See? Everything worked out! I mean, he's not dead, but, it's a start!
"I...I feel like they're all forgetting that Cell has Piccolo's regrenation," Lisanna mentioned.
"Or, maybe they just don't know?" Elfman guessed.
(Vegeta begins laughing)
"Yeah, Vegeta just didn't know," Gajeel said.
PERFECT CELL: You... You think this is funny? (Vegeta continues laughing) YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY?! (Vegeta carries on with his laughter) It's not...as funny... (smiles) as your face. (regenerates his right arm, causing Vegeta to stop laughing and look in horror)
TRUNKS: Holy...
KRILLIN: Shit!
"Vegeta is gonna die," Levy stated and nobody could disagree with her.
PERFECT CELL: You know, it might sound weird, but I kinda liked the old arm better. Oh, well. I'll just have to break it in!
(Vegeta starts firing multiple blasts at Perfect Cell)
VEGETA: WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!
PERFECT CELL: Prince...has this ever worked? (walks straight through the blasts and punches Vegeta across the island) Don't need to answer that.
"I'm gonna answer it anyway! The answer is no!" Natsu replied.
KRILLIN: Okay, Trunks, you're out of excuses now! He's gonna kill your dad!
TRUNKS: Y-You don't know that! He could just knock him unconscious, and then I'll-
KRILLIN/Everyone: WE DON'T HAVE DRAGONBALLS, TRUNKS!
(Vegeta is seen standing up and wiping his face with his hand as Perfect Cell stands directly in front of him)
PERFECT CELL: Some advice, Prince. For the future. Next time, why don't you remember your place like the rest of them? ...And wait for Goku.
"If you didn't break his pride by surviving that Final Flash, then that right there absolutely shattered the man's spirit," Rogue said.
PERFECT CELL: (launches Vegeta into the sky with a kick and then appears in the direction Vegeta is flying and delivers the coup de grâce by elbowing him hard in the back, sending him crashing down to the ground, rendering him unconscious and out of his Super Saiyan form)
Everyone in the guild winced at the impact of Cell shattering Vegeta's spine. Even Minerva winced from the hit, seeing just how devastating it was.
PERFECT CELL: K.O.! (lands near Vegeta) I win! (holds out his hand to finish off Vegeta) Perfect! Hm? (looks up in the sky and notices Trunks is powering up) Oh... Here comes a new challenger.
"Finally! Trunks' real power is on it's way!" Natsu cheered.
[ENDING SEQUENCE]
[STINGER]
(cut to inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber)
GOKU: (singing to himself as he rummages around in the fridge)
I like food 'cause it is yummy. I will put this in my tummy... (outside, Gohan is seen training in his Super Saiyan form) Gohan! Grub's up! Now, I might've gotten a little ahead of myself and already finished, but I made sure to save you this. (holds up the meat) So cook her up, son! (throws the meat into the air)
GOHAN: Hiyah! (fires a blast at the meat, cooking it through, and Goku catches it)
"I love doing that with my flames!" Natsu exclaimed.
GOKU: Mm, yeah! Charred meat with no seasoning, just how Grandpa used to make- (the meat suddenly bursts into flames in front of his face and gets incinerated, with his hair getting caught on fire) Gohan... What did I tell you about controlling your power level?
"Wow, he actually sounds like a father," Evergreen rolls her eyes.
"Nobody gonna bring up that his hair is on fire?" Kagura asks.
GOHAN: I'm sorry, Dad. I'm just not used to my new strength yet...
GOKU: (the flames are now seen spreading through his hair) No excuses, Gohan! You have to eat. And just because the fridge magically restocks, doesn't mean we can waste valuable food!
GOHAN: (notices the fire on Goku's hair) Uh, Dad, I think your hair is on fire-
"I wouldn't bother telling him," Gajeel replied.
GOKU: (the flames now cover a larger portion of his hair) Don't change the subject, Gohan!
GOHAN: ... (watches silently as the fire flares up and begins to burn Goku's entire face)
GOKU: *sniffs* Who's cooking pork?
"You are," Wendy giggled.
Chapter End
NOTE: The actual fact that Vegeta gets his absolute shit stomped right after the Final Flash made me not care about the moment that much. He really just gets shafted right after the attack, so if their reaction doesn't suit your tastes, then I don't know what to tell you. I tried my best.
