Chapter 72: The women called Android 21
While Android 17 was preoccupied with Piccolo, Goten was chasing after the women.
He noticed a unique-looking mountain while flying near it.
He got down to the ground and checked whether there was something wrong with the mountain.
Luckily for him not very long after he started to search for it he found a metallic substance on the mountain's foot.
"Galick Gun." He said as he destroyed the place where he found the metallic substance.
Revealing a huge entrance.
Goten looked at the mountain which now had an entrance.
It seems to have some kind of underground base set up in it.
He walked inside it. While keeping his guard up.
He was surprised by how big it was and how it was able to be built.
He noticed R.R. Logos on his way down to the main lab.
"Red Ribbon army. So they were after this too." Goten said.
He saw thousands of metallic bodies displayed on the way down.
Goten frowned. If it was just robots he would not be that mad.
But Android 17 and 18 are not robots. They are cyborgs that are created using real humans.
"I hope those things are not the things that I was thinking." He said.
He is not entirely sure about the thousands of humans being experienced by the Red Ribbon Army.
So the best he could wish for it was to hope that he was wrong about his assumption.
Then finally he reached it. The place where that woman was.
-------------------------
She was sitting on a chair while directly looking at Goten.
Goten also saw 18 lying near her on a bed.
"Who are you?" Goten asked her in a calm tone as he looked directly into her eyes.
"Aren't you rude? You are the one who trespassed into my lab." She said.
"You kidnapped one of my Friends. And it seems like you are responsible for what is happening around the world," Goten said to her.
"I suppose you are right. Then let me introduce myself. I am Android 21. The ultimate android that was created after the death of Dr Gero." She said.
"Before you attack me I have to warn you I am created by using the data of your strongest opponents including Frieza, Cell and Majin Buu."
"You might have a chance to beat me without the influence of the Wave machine. But currently, you have no chance." She said to Goten.
"What do you want? Why did you kidnap 18?" Goten asked her.
He determined that what she said was true.
And even if he could beat her he thought he shouldn't attack her with 18 nearby.
He should at least find out what her motive was.
"You see. I was constructed by the Supercomputer after the death of Dr Gero." She explained.
"I was modelled after his dead wife Vomi. I hope that is his wife. Otherwise ...." She stopped for a while.
"She had a child with him. Who died in a war."
"War. The Red Ribbon war that my dad partakes in?" Goten asked her.
"No. He died many years before your dad was even born." She said.
"He created an Android-based on him. Called android 16." She told Goten.
"But it was not only his son. He also created me. With the sole purpose of looking after his Robot son. Isn't that selfish?" She said.
"But you see he was not able to finish my construction. As he died before that. So the supercomputer has to finish his job." She explained.
"But what does that have to do with you kidnapping 18 and creating a machine that weakened my friends? Get to the point." Goten said as he charged his ki in his hand and aimed at her.
"Such a sharpshooter. I wonder if you are even Son Goku's son." She said.
"When my construction was completed 16 have already died. You know about that already. Right?" She asked.
Goten nodded.
"The remnants of the Red Ribbon army were able to find me after that. They didn't know about my powers but they knew about me being a great scientist." She said.
"They gave me a proposal. Help them kill your father and his friends in exchange for rebuilding Android 16."
"But can't you just rebuild him by yourself?" Goten asked.
"They rebuild him with the remaining materials that they were able to recover from Capsule Corporation. Including the memories that he had before he was destroyed." 21 replied.
"So...." Goten rushed her.
"It's in my code to accept that deal even if I don't want to. And the truth is I am a little bit curious about him." She continued.
"But I don't want to get play in their hands. I created a loophole that would prevent the powers of 17 and 18 from being restricted by the wave machine. Just so that they have a fighting chance against the Red Ribbon army." She explained.
"So you are an ally?" Goten asked.
"You could call me that." She confirmed Goten's words.
Goten didn't let his guard down but some of his suspicion about her was cleared up after he heard her story.
He didn't fully believe her but he knew that the chances of her telling lies to him were the same as the chances of her telling him the truth.
"And I took Android 18 so that I could help her prepare for the up coming battle."
21 didn't lie as the part that was controlling her right now was an ally of Goten and the others.
While her other side was hidden beneath could be considered the ultimate Evil.
--------------------------
At that time.
"Where did Goten go? Why did his Ki suddenly disappear." Piccolo was confused as he was unable to sense Goten's ki after he went into the lab.
That woman. There is something dangerous inside of her. The words that he heard from 17 echoed in Piccolo's mind.
Piccolo knew that she could not be trusted and they had to separate 18 away from her as fast as possible.
