With Frieza and Broly being brought into the franchise through their own film, many fans are wondering whether Cell could return to the story.

Cell has untapped potential

Cell, the 21st and final creation of Dr. Gero of the Red Ribbon Army, represents the pinnacle of human achievement through science. Cell possesses superior power compared to androids 17 and 18.

Cell is a combination of the strongest warrior cells in the universe. Author Akira Toriyama has implied that Cell possesses Tien’s cells, meaning he has complete access to the ultimate Earthling, Evil Containment Wave or Mafuba.

As an Earthling hybrid, Cell also has the potential to harness the power of ikari, or rage. Gohan and Trunks both demonstrated the power that ikari brings when transforming into Super Saiyan 2 to fight villains like Raditz, Zamasu and even Goku Black. So, if Cell shows his rage, he can multiply his power many times over.

Cell has the potential power of a Saiyan

Cell has the genetic code of both Goku and Vegeta, so the possibility of him becoming a Super Saiyan cannot be ruled out. Even Cell has the ability to multiply his power many times higher than the Super Saiyan 3 level. There are many conjectures that Cell has the ability to become Super Saiyan Blue Cell. In the original manga, Cell confirmed that he experienced zenkai, a characteristic of the Saiyan race that increases his strength.

Cell includes Namekian cells

In addition to Saiyan cells from Goku and Vegeta, Cell also has Piccolo’s Namek cells. Just like having the power of Saiyan cells, Piccolo’s Namek cells bring special Dragon Clan powers to Cell. As a Namek of the Dragon Clan, he has the ability to create his own dragon balls. This means that, like Granolah, he may also want ultimate cosmic power using the dragon he created himself.

Likewise, as the last android recorded by the Grand Elder Guru, Cell is capable of creating a whole host of abilities that supplement his innate fighting prowess. Most importantly, one day he will learn how to unlock his potential, using his inherent strength to confront the Z warriors.

Another skill that Cell is sure to discover is the ability to heal beyond the regeneration of the Namekians, thanks to the ability that comes from the cells of the Dragon Clan. Not only does this allow Cell to regenerate his body and ki during battle, but he can even exploit his aforementioned zenkai abilities by applying healing after each encounter.

The power comes from the cells of Frieza’s race

The brilliant Dr. Gero even went so far as to combine both Frieza’s and King Cold’s cells into Cell to ensure that he inherited the toughness and physical strength to travel through space. Cells from the Frieza race have helped Cell have the ability to endure flexibly and not be affected by interplanetary explosions. He could even easily travel through planets like Yardrat and learn techniques to enhance his power.

Thus, Cell is created from the best cells with potential power. So, if he reappears in the latest movie, it will definitely create an extremely thrilling and exciting story.
