Summary

SSJGohanAndPiccolo — Gohan asking Piccolo for a new outfit

All across the globe, the good citizens of Earth are in a panic as they flee their towns to escape Cell's looming vengeance. Meanwhile, everyone on Kami's Lookout is expecting for Goku and Gohan to emerge from the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. With their Battle Armor all tattered and damaged, Goku and Gohan emerge out as Super Saiyans, to everyone's surprise. Goku asks Mr. Popo whether the cloths he left is there, and Mr. Popo says yes and gets the Gi. Then, Goku and Gohan demand for food as they had not eaten from some time and gobble up hungrily, which Goku explains as him and Gohan could not cook well so it was long since they had eaten home cooked meal. Gohan asks Piccolo for clothes like Piccolo himself, so Piccolo uses his Magic Materialization to change Gohan's clothes. As Vegeta asks whether Goku can beat Cell, Goku asks how strong Cell is and the current situation as he does not know how Cell he reached his Perfect form.

Using Instant Transmission, Goku goes to the Cell Games Arena. Goku and Cell enter a stand off, and Cell declares that here will be the fate of the universe. Then, the sky turns dark, thunders and lightnings are seen, and a flashback of how Cell reached his Perfect form is shown. Goku declares that he will be the first to fight Cell in the ring so he leaves all the others out of this. Goku says that Cell is not the first person who has tried to rule the universe by his evil ways, and then he returns to the lookout. There, Future Trunks asks whether Goku can beat Cell, and Goku says he does not stand a chance right now.

Quotes

GokuAndGohanAfterTimeChamber — Gohan and Goku in their new outfits on the Lookout

(Goku and Gohan are gorging on the food Mr. Popo prepared for them, as though they had not eaten in the longest possible time)

Goku: (With his mouth full of noodles, muffles unintelligibly)

Piccolo: All right, Goku. Why don't you try saying that without your mouth full?

Goku: (Exchanges puzzled expressions with Gohan, and then sucks the rest of his noodles and swallows)

Piccolo: (Disgusted) Ugh... disgusting...

Goku: What I was saying was that Gohan and I can't cook very well, so it's been a long time since we've had a home-cooked meal.

Trivia

When Bulma is looking at Android 16's data there is a picture of Goku attacking Frieza, though Dr. Gero did not add any information on the battle on Namek, since he thought he had collected enough cells and had observed enough through the tracking device before Goku went to Planet Namek.
