Summary
Android 18 (real name: Lazuli) is one of the Red Ribbon Androids created by Dr. Gero to carry out his vendetta against Son Goku. Whereas the other Androids are mostly mechanical, 18 and her twin brother are cyborgs, having been forcibly transformed into their current states by Gero.

Resistance to Extrasensory Perception (Due to her android physiology, she has no Ki signature, making her invisible to Ki-Sensing) | All previous abilities enhanced. Dimensional Travel, Sound Manipulation, Space-Time Manipulation and Portal Creation (At this level of power she can create dimensional rifts and destroy space-time and pocket dimensions with her energy). Resistance to Empathic Manipulation (Was unaffected by Ribrianne's Light of Love, which causes anyone who smells the aroma released by the attack to become infatuated with her and the other Kamikaze Fireballs)

Helped Android 17 fight and overwhelm Viara. Could counter blasts from Base Anilaza that pushed back Android 17)
Speed: At least Hypersonic+ flight speed (Faster than Krillin who can fly this quickly), Massively FTL+ combat speed (During the Android Saga, while holding back, she managed to match Super Saiyan Vegeta in combat, even evading his energy blast with ease; once she let loose, however, she momentarily blitzed Vegeta and proceeded to overwhelm him by orders of magnitude as his stamina dropped before countering both Vegeta and Future Trunks's burst flights. Furthermore, according to Future Trunks, the present Androids 17 and 18 are far more powerful than their future counterparts, which was later confirmed by the Daizenshuu 7, with their future selves effortlessly slaughtering Future Gohan who, while weaker than Future Goku at the time of his death, was still more powerful than Future Trunks by the time he curb-stomped the revived, mechanized Frieza.[Note 1] During the Majin Buu Conflict, she fought toe-to-toe with Goten and Trunks in Mighty Mask's disguise and even narrowly evaded their combined energy blast as Super Saiyans) | Massively FTL+ (At least 118.25 sextillion c, likely far higher.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Android Physiology: Once a human, Android 18 was converted into a cybernetic android (or "Artificial Human") by Dr. Gero, modified on a cellular level to be superhuman and instilling her with an infinite supply of energy and immense power. Due to her artificial energy, 18 has no ki signature and cannot detect ki normally herself. As opposed to the fully mechanical models, 18's organic components mean that she can train and grow stronger over time and she ages much more slowly than a regular human. While she does not make use of normal ki, 18 can still utilize her own energy for a variety of attacks.
- Android Barrier: The Red Ribbon Android version of the regular energy shield, an energy-based forcefield used to block attacks.
- Kienzan: Krillin's signature technique, which 18 surely learned from her husband. Raising her hand above her head, 18 creates a razor-sharp disc of energy with incredible cutting power and then throws it at her opponent. It should be noted that the Kienzan can cut through opponents that are several times stronger and more durable.
