Piccolo sneaks into the Red Ribbon Army’s secret base and learns of their plan to try and conquer the world again. This time, they have Dr. Hedo—a naive super genius and grandson of Dr. Gero—on their side, and have deceived him into helping them build androids. One of these androids is Cell Max, a giant, even-more-destructive version of the original Cell. They’ve also managed to convince the gullible scientist that they are the good guys trying to save the world, and that Capsule Corp., Goku, and everyone who fought against them all those years ago are the actual bad guys. And what better way to start thinning the evil crop than by kidnapping Gohan’s daughter Pan to lure him out and destroy him?!

Cell Max is unleashed, and the only ones there to fight the ultimate android are Gohan, Piccolo, and Dr. Hedo’s hero androids Gamma 1 and Gamma 2. The four of them are quickly overpowered by the formidable Cell Max, but they refuse to give up. Piccolo unleashes the power Shenlong granted him and becomes a giant monster that rivals Cell Max in size and strength. And with his daughter’s life on the line, Gohan, in his fury, unlocks a new transformation, one that may be even stronger than his own father’s Ultra Instinct.
Even after being severely crippled in the fight with Cell Max, the Red Ribbon Army secretly plots their comeback. They deceive Goten and Trunks and lead them into a trap at Gohan’s home. However, Goku makes an unexpected house call in the middle of the Red Ribbon Army’s rocky reunion. He’s ready to shake things up and turn the tides in his family’s favor!
