Cell (What If 13)

Cell, in this What If, comes from the GT Era, and after training with Frieza in Hell, he is also able to gain access to the Golden Form transformation.

Appearance
While never scene in any of his previous forms, it is likely that Cell appears exactly the same his canon counterpart in his Perfect and Super Perfect Form. In his Golden Form, Cell retains the overall appearance of his Perfect Form, however the green that covers majority of his body is instead replaced with the Golden color that comes with the Golden Form; with the darker green spots becoming a darker yellow. His appearance greatly resembles Cell What If 5 and Cell What If 6. After absorbing Goku, Cell takes on a new transformation; his upper arms and chest turning black, with his chest and abdomen becoming white. He also appears to grow hair, resembling Goku's Super Saiyan 4 hair, and gains red eyelids and a red aura.

Personality
Cell is very proper and formal, yet sadistic and cruel to those he despises; such as Goku. He is also very calculating and preparing, understanding, and allowing Frieza to be the one to harm Goku the most; and even training to be able to fully absorb Goku, in order to fully get his revenge.

What If #13
Before the events of What If 13, Cell and Frieza began to train with one another, likely due to their shared hatred for Goku and his friends. With the many years passed, both were able to obtain the Golden Form, as well as perfect it. An unspecific amount of time passed, and Dr Myuu was killed, and sent to Hell, where he and Dr Gero were able to build Hell Fighter 17, which connected with the original Android 17; connecting the Living World with Hell. Everyone killed by the Z Fighters escaped, but Frieza and Cell remained in Hell, challenging Goku to face them. Frieza battled Goku, confident he could defeat him alone, and made quick work of the Saiyan, despite his new transformation, Super Saiyan 4. With Goku defeated, Cell revealed himself alongside the plan that he and Frieza had made together. Frieza would wear Goku down, and Cell would absorb Goku; forcing him into an eternal limbo, just like Goku and Gohan had forced them. Cell absorbs Goku, Super 17 kills the rest of the Z Fighters, and Cell marks the victory there's.

Power
In the [What-If Universe Official Power Scaling], Cell is ranked the following:


 * Rank 13 (Golden Form + Super Saiyan 4 Goku Absorbed)

At the time of this being written, this is the most powerful version of Cell to date. His power is scaled to Frieza, and greatly surpasses him after absorbing Goku. Goku believed that Golden Frieza (in his Final Form), was even more powerful that Super 17, who managed to defeat the all of the Z-Fighters single-handedly; and therefore, Cell should be even stronger than this. Despite this, Cell has not been scene fighting, and only shot a single Makankōsappō at Goku.

Trivia

 * While unclear of the reason behind this, this version of Golden Cell is the only one to have purple feet, while the ones from What If 5 and What If 6 have orange feet; like in the Perfect Form.


 * In the [What-If Universe] Official Power Scaling, this version of Cell is only scaled in the form taken after absorbing Goku, despite appearing in his Golden Form before.


 * In the [What-If Universe] Official Power Scaling, Cell's tail appears similar to that of a lizard's tail, despite in What If 13, as well as in Dragonball GT it appears very differently.


 * Cell is tied for the villain appearing in the most What Ifs (not counting cameos), with Goku Black.
 * However, unlike Black, each iteration of Cell, to date, are different versions of Cell, while Goku Black has been the same consistent character.
