Senzu Beans can heal physical injuries that aren't caused by illness.
Naturally, they could also restore Son Gohan's arm.
In the original timeline, Son Gohan didn't have any spare Senzu Beans to heal his arm. This made him increasingly weaker in the subsequent battles against the Androids, ultimately leading to his death at their hands.
Although Ling An had saved Son Gohan, her abilities only allowed her to heal injuries, not to regrow a lost limb. However, a Senzu Bean could do just that, and there were multiple instances in the Dragon Ball series where someone's body was restored by a Senzu Bean after being damaged.
After arriving in this world, she had healed Vegeta's injuries. The remaining Senzu Bean naturally fell into Son Gohan's hands, but he wasn't in a hurry to use it and heal himself.
He had his own plans, but in the face of reality, he had to compromise. Since his injured body couldn't achieve the Super Saiyan 2 state, he would try with a whole body.
After eating, Son Gohan rested for a while. Then, he took out the Senzu Bean, chewed it without hesitation, and swallowed it.
Just a moment later, under Ling An's gaze, an arm, noticeably whiter than the rest of Son Gohan's skin, slowly materialized.
"Truly amazing. Just a little bean, and it has such incredible effects," Ling An marveled.
Senzu Beans have always been a point of fascination for many Dragon Ball fans. After all, the things were just too absurd, and they were also perfectly suited to Saiyan physiology. If they had enough Senzu Beans, Saiyans could even reach terrifying levels of power just by popping them.
Unfortunately, Senzu Beans became a scarce resource in the later stages of the original story. Although Ling An didn't understand why Son Goku and the others didn't use the Dragon Balls to increase the Senzu Bean supply, she didn't consider trying it herself. After all, it was like the Censorship Beast; since Son Goku and the others didn't do it, it was best to avoid it.
"It's been a while, and it feels pretty good."
Son Gohan flexed his hand, a happy smile on his face. Although his strength meant losing an arm wouldn't significantly affect his daily life, it was still a disability, and somewhat inconvenient.
Daily life was one thing, but the most important thing was combat. With one arm missing, his effective strength would definitely be less than if he were at full capacity. After all, the martial arts he had learned relied on the use of both hands; one hand simply couldn't unleash his full potential.
"At my current level, even if I can't completely defeat Cell, I can definitely suppress him!" Son Gohan said confidently.
"That's for sure," Ling An agreed, but then added a dose of cold water. "But the Cell we're facing now isn't the same Cell from our world. This Cell has absorbed the two Androids, so his power is absolutely overflowing. If we give him a chance to revive, he'll definitely reach an even more terrifying level. At that point, it'll be almost impossible to defeat him without Super Saiyan 2."
In fact, Ling An didn't say it, but in a certain sense, Cell's power had already reached the Super Saiyan 2 level after he self-destructed and revived. After all, he could be called Lightning Cell, and lightning was one of the prominent signs of Super Saiyan 2.
It could be said that Cell died because of a plot device, or rather, because Son Gohan went all out at the last moment. Otherwise, they would probably have followed in Son Goku's footsteps.
But saying all this was meaningless. After all, as long as they broke through to Super Saiyan 2, they could contend with Cell, that was absolute. And, with Cell's current state, knowing that he had a chance to revive after self-destructing, they would definitely use the absolute power of Super Saiyan 2 to obliterate Cell, preventing him from reviving again.
"I understand. I will work hard to break through to Super Saiyan 2," Son Gohan said with unwavering determination, clenching his fists. He took a light breath and smiled at Ling An. "Ling An, I just recovered my arm. If I train alone, there might be deviations, so if possible, I hope you can be my sparring partner and let me readjust to my arm."
"No problem. Shall we start now?"
"Yes!"
As the words fell, the two instantly flew into the sky. Son Gohan put his hands on his waist and said to Ling An, "Ling An, I'm going to attack!"
"Come on!" Ling An beckoned with a finger.
"Boom!" A ki blast shot towards Ling An. Facing this powerful attack, Ling An remained expressionless, and with a wave of her hand, she directly swatted the energy blast away.
"Gohan, you should transform into your Super Saiyan form. Your base form probably won't be very effective." Son Gohan's base form power was several orders of magnitude weaker than Ling An's base form. In this situation, it was like an ant fighting an elephant.
No matter how strong the ant was, it couldn't spar with an elephant.
Hearing this, Son Gohan nodded. The next moment, his hair turned yellow as if dyed by flames, and his pupils became emerald green!
With a fifty-fold increase, he instantly possessed power greater than Ling An's base form. Faced with this, Ling An only needed to slightly enhance herself to be able to fight Son Gohan in his full-power Super Saiyan form.
The two turned into streaks of white and yellow light, instantly colliding. The immense power caused the entire Hyperbolic Time Chamber to rumble, but even power capable of destroying the Earth couldn't shake the Hyperbolic Time Chamber itself. It truly deserved to be called a divine creation.
The Earth's Guardian, who built such a Hyperbolic Time Chamber, might not have been particularly strong himself, but his accomplishments in this area were perhaps unmatched by many Kais. Of course, that wasn't to say the Kais were lacking. For example, North Kai could create powerful techniques like the Kaio-ken and Spirit Bomb. It just meant they each had their own areas of expertise.
Because this wasn't Earth, and the Hyperbolic Time Chamber was undeniably powerful, both of them unleashed their strength without any restraint. Bursts of powerful energy clashed between them, the intensity escalating as the battle continued.
Son Gohan, with his arm restored, unleashed the full power of Super Saiyan. Coupled with his already formidable base strength, even Son Goku and Vegeta, at their current levels, would likely be unable to defeat him. However, Ling An had no such problem. Considering the most basic measure of battle strength, her power had long ago reached the level of Super Saiyan 2, even surpassing the average Super Saiyan 2.
Therefore, facing Son Gohan's power, Ling An still handled every move with ease, occasionally counter-attacking to make Son Gohan realize where he needed to focus on defense and improvement.
And so, with the constant sparring, Son Gohan grew more and more accustomed to his newly restored arm...
