Preparation

Broly, Taro and Aize were eating leisurely midair, while the Z-Fighters were tense and contemplating if they could win against Broly's followers. Goku was confident that they could win which eased up the atmosphere but the words from Gine quickly dampened the mood again. She told them that they have already ascended the Super Saiyan transformation for many years and it would be difficult for them to win.

What made them hope was the fact that Goku wasn't far from the second level. With the Hyperbolic Time Chamber their chances would be even better. Although the humans of the group didn't expect to make great changes, they still resolved themselves to train. Since they all only had 2 chances to go inside, they had enough time for everyone to train, if they divided themselves into groups.

While they were eating, Aize suddenly spoke out.

"Broly, where are we going to build the arena?"

"Oh yeah, wait for a second I am going off and build one. Won't be long until I come back." Without waiting for a response Broly headed off into the distance. Aize and Taro looked at each other before grasping their food and then followed Broly.

Broly noticed that and came to a stop, before he turned around and questioned them.

"We don't know how to use magic to hide ourselves. If they look into the sky, we would be immediately exposed."

"…Right. Never mind then, just follow me." The two followed Broly and directly flew to a remote wasteland, far away from the cities.

While they were off to build an arena, a new figure appeared on the lookout. Piccolo had finally appeared on the lookout. He looked at the Z-Fighters before questioning them of Trunks whereabouts.

Goku came forwards and told him that they were inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to train.

"I see. Then we will wait until Trunks comes out."

"Why do you want to see him?" Krillin asked.

"There is another entity from the future named Cell, whose purpose for coming here is to absorb the androids 17 and 18. He needs them to evolve and we are going to help him."

"Why do we help him, is he a good guy?" Krillin asked doubtfully.

"No. He is another creation from Dr. Gero. He is stronger and probably even more evil than the androids, we have encountered. But we need every help to beat the followers from Broly. We will also have to convince the androids to help us."

"That seems plausible, but why do we need Trunks?" Goku asked while scratching his head.

"Since our androids are stronger, we will go to the future and take the androids from Trunks' timeline back here for Cell to absorb. I already told Cell to wait on an Island a few thousand kilometers away."

"I see. So, we gather the best we can, train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and defeat Broly's followers. Afterwards what are we going to do with Cell and the androids?" Tien summarized while already pondering on what to do when they succeed. After all, the androids and Cell in their eyes are still evil.

"Don't worry, if they think about messing around, I am going to beat them up!" Goku said while slapping on his upper arm.

With Goku around the atmosphere was considerably loosened up.

****

In the meantime, on barren land far off from civilization, two figures were arguing with each other about what to do, while another tall guy with an orange mohawk was sitting on the ground.

"17, we need to fight too!" 18 was shouting at 17 who was leaning against a boulder.

"18 that's not our problem! Let Goku and his crew fight that monster!" 17 stubbornly rejected her.

"You know they don't stand a chance against him! He will destroy the whole planet and I don't have to tell you what happens to us, if we don't have a freaking planet to live on! 16 help me out!"

16 was smiling at a bird on his hand but as soon as 18 shouted towards him, it was scared away.

"My only mission is to kill Goku…"

"See, how about we take a spaceship from somewhere and leave this pl-"

"…I suggest searching at his home. We have no other indications for his location." 16 finished his reply and stood up before continuing.

"I can't let someone else kill Goku."

"I knew I could count on you! 17 don't be stupid and help us!"

"I- this is suicide! Why bother with this planet, le-"

"You think we can leave? You heard what he said. It will be his followers that fight in two weeks, not himself. If we try to leave, he will take actions himself! This is our best chance."

17 thought about how easily they were pummeled by Broly. He gritted his teeth before throwing his arms into the air.

"Fine! I am in!"

18 smiled happily hearing this.

"We need to head to these coordinates 58N 018, 439, east district." 16 told them about the Goku's address.

"Alright, let's go!"

Without further ado, they flew to Goku's home.

****

Broly and his crew had, after searching for a while, found a vast wasteland, perfect for them and the Z-Fighters to go all out. With a handwave, the small hills and boulders were flattened. A huge perfect area was being created in an instant. He first thought about using a mountain like Cell did in the series, but he thought it would be better to use stronger materials to do this.

He hadn't done it often as he mostly used magic to create clothes or to enhance his attacks. He closed his eyes and concentrated before a white block appeared in front of him, which he directly placed on the cleared area. Afterwards he created more of these Kati blocks and placed them to create a simple arena.

Kati was a durable steel that Exousia had once came across upon. It was not as durable as Katchin but it certainly was better than most materials one could find in the universe. Exousia after finding it had used it to enhance the durability of its city.

Broly used it, since it wouldn't cost him as much magic power as it would with Katchin.

It didn't take long for the arena to finish and was practically a rebuild of Cell's arena only more durable. It would be hard to annihilate it, even if Vegeta used his final flash in his Super Saiyan second grade.

While giving the arena the final touch by giving it those spiky corners, he noticed three figures a few hundred kilometers away.

Broly grinned as he recognized the androids. He suddenly disappeared from the spot. Taro and Aize looked up from their meals, only to see no one around. They shrugged before continuing to eat, apparently earth's food really did it to them. They had even asked Broly where they could find more. They were determined to go to a city to gather a lot and bring it back to Exousia.

Broly seemingly materialized in front of the androids, completely frightening the three.

"Hello there. Where are you three heading to?" After hearing that 16 stepped in front of the other two, he was looking tense as he observed at the smiling Broly.

"We are heading to Goku's house to ally with them against you." 17 and 18 were shocked that 16 simply revealed their plan.

"16 what are you-"

"I see. The direct approach, good choice. You won't find him at his home. They are currently at Kami's lookout, training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber."

"…I have no data of that place."

"No problem." Broly pointed a finger at 16's head and a beam of golden light directly pierced 16's head.

"You!" 17 was about to take action before he was stopped by 16.

"…Thank you, we will take off now." 16 said before flying away with 17 under his arms. 18 was dumbfounded but didn't waste time and quickly followed the other two.

Broly was waving behind them as if he was seeing off a friend. After they couldn't be seen anymore, he stopped before a ferocious grin appeared on his face.

'So, they want to cooperate with them too. Now my expectations are increasing even more, don't disappoint me!'

He went back to his arena before his voice echoed through the whole world, letting everyone know of its location.
