Chapter 15: Have no Fear, Satan is Here (Re-written)
"Ce... Cell was actually dealt with??"
At that moment, Krillin was in astonishment as he lay on the ground, struggling to find words to express the shock and excitement in his heart.
He had initially assumed that Goten had reverted from Super Saiyan transformation due to feeling Cell's strength and chose to surrender, only to witness instantaneous defeat of Cell upon his transformation into an even more powerful form.
"That boy," Krillin remarked with a wry smile, "with strength like that, he had me on edge the whole time." Despite his initial apprehension, Krillin couldn't help but feel relieved and overjoyed at the outcome.
Had Goten shown his strength from the beginning, Cell would have been killed long ago.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for picking up Cell's abilities and 100 million basic combat power]
At this moment, the system's announcement quickly rang in his mind.
Goten didn't feel too surprised by this either. He understood that fighting stronger opponents would yield greater rewards.
As for the abilities of Cell, they didn't actually have much use for him.
Cell's arsenal of abilities might have been diverse, but it didn't offer any significant advantage in combat. The only notable aspect was his regeneration ability, though it paled in comparison to Majin Buu's regenerative ability.
With the battle over, Goten chose to exit Ultra Instinct mode, as it put lot of strain on his body. He couldn't hold for too long in that mode.
After exiting Ultra Instinct, a tingling sensation hit his body instantly. He instantly ate a senzu bean to avoid the repercussions of the huge strain the transformation had put on his body.
At this moment, the sound of a helicopter suddenly sounded in the sky.
Hum rumble!
Soon a helicopter appeared in Goten's sight, adorned with the insignia of a renowned TV station.
Goten didn't bother to pay attention to these guys, and focused on aiding Krillin, offering him the last senzu bean to hasten his recovery.
"Goten, what was that form you took? Was it another Saiyan transformation? It was amazing! You managed to kill Cell in an instant!" Krillin looked at Goten in shock, excitement, and admiration as he asked Goten about his recent transformation.
"No, that's not a typical Saiyan transformation..." Goten explained, shaking his head. "It's more of a state of being, but I haven't mastered it fully. It's incredibly draining to maintain. So, it is generally not suitable for use."
Hearing Goten's explanation, Krillin was even more surprised!
Goten was able to create such a powerful ability on his own without anyone's guidance. This kind of talent was a testament to Goten's remarkable potential.
Meanwhile, the helicopter came near the battleground, Krillin took a look at the helicopter above his head and was disgusted by them. "Those despicable guys are at it again." To him, these individuals only knew how to grovel and sing praises to that fool Satan every day. Now they were back to join in the spectacle once more…
The helicopter touched down, everyone aboard the helicopter was immensely shocked upon witnessing the aftermath of the battle. "What kind of battle was it that could destroy a place like this?"
"It's no wonder that the earth shook so violently just now…"
A few minutes later, five or six people got off the helicopter.
Among them, was a very familiar figure, sporting a wild mustache, and unruly curly hair. He was clad in his signature coat with a golden belt cinched at his waist.
This eccentric individual was none other than the world-renowned Mr. Satan, self-proclaimed savior of the world!
According the previous news the media released, after the 'blond delinquent youth' and his 'sidekicks' were all defeated eight years ago, Cell originally planned to destroy the earth, and it was Mr. Satan who scared Cell away.
Of course, it wasn't true, this was what Satan told the media. Thus in the eyes of humans, he became the earth's savior…
"Where is Cell? Where is Cell??" As soon as he got off the helicopter, he looked around for Cell and asked in a calm voice, but he was panicking internally.
"Mr. Satan, look, there are two people over there, they look very familiar!!" The photographer immediately pointed to Krillin and Goten, and said in surprise.
"Ah, yes, I remember them. I saw them eight years ago when I was fighting Cell." When Satan saw Krillin and Goten, his entire body stiffened with fear.
'Didn't those guys get killed by Cell?'
'How did they come back to life?!'
If these two revealed the truth of what had transpired all those years ago, his status as the earth's savior would be in jeopardy.
"Oh no!!! It's terrible! My stomach! I can't do it, my breakfast is acting up on me..."
"It hurts, it hurts, no, I'll have to go back, right now!"
Satan quickly came up with an excuse, he feigned a sudden bout of stomach pain, a well-rehearsed excuse for evading difficult situations.
"Mr. Satan, we were worried that you would have a stomachache, so we have already prepared an on-site portable toilet!"
But his plan was swiftly countered by his attentive entourage, who had already prepared a convenient solution.
To them, Satan would always have an upset stomach whenever it was an important event, they had long been used to this and had made preparations for it!
"Ahh..."
Caught off guard by their quick thinking, Satan was stunned and suddenly felt speechless.
'I feel like I've been tricked by these guys!'
In the end, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk in front of Goten and Krillin.
"Tch! It's this despicable guy again!" Krillin looked at the approaching Satan and said in low voice.
"Last time, he took credit for the fight in which Goku and Gohan's sacrifice repelled Cell and portrayed himself as a savior. And now he wants to take all the credit again? Not again!"
"It was quite lucky that this guy was not killed in the previous battle!" Krillin voiced his disgust at Satan's shameless antics.
Although Goku and others didn't care about such things, Krillin felt very angry at his despicable behavior…
Goten raised his eyebrows slightly.
Despite the character's comedic role in Dragon Ball, it was indeed a despicable act to take credit for the sacrifices made by others. His actions left a sour taste in his mouth. He didn't like the character of Satan very much.
[T/N: Hey guys, I rewrote the system notification, that instead of Cell's genes/bloodline, Goten got Cell's abilities instead. Because from chapters further down the lane, it doesn't make sense that he got his bloodline, and nothing changed. So i replaced it with Cell's abilities, instead of his genes/bloodline. If you find the mention of Cell's genes again in chapters ahead, do point out that for me, so that I can fix it]
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
Clay_Champion
Clay_Champion Well, it's all shits and giggles on screen, but now that he is in that place, he feels that Satan's action of taking the credit for the Z-warriors sacrifice to repel Cell was indeed shameless.
