Over the next two days, Kira Ryosuke continuously intensified his physical training, and in his free time, he would also spar with the members of Team Z.
It evolved from initial 1v1 matches to eventually 1v5.
Although everyone was incredibly ambitious, facing Kira Ryosuke made them realize what kind of monster other teams' players had to face.
His attacks were as swift as the wind, and his defense was impenetrable.
Under such high-intensity confrontations, they also felt their own growth rate significantly improve.
Amidst their joy, Kudou Wataru's voice suddenly appeared, informing everyone that dinner was ready.
Facing the formidable Team V, everyone exchanged their remaining points for steak to add to their dinner, attempting to boost morale.
During dinner, Iemon approached with a small whiteboard, and seriously said, "Since Ryosuke is back, let's formulate a strategy first."
He pointed to the distribution map of Team V drawn on the whiteboard, "From my observation, Team V is an ultra-offensive formation with three Forwards, consisting of Mikage Reo, Nagi Seishiro, and Tsurugi Zanetsu."
"Their abilities are all quite outstanding, and we can pay special attention to them."
"As long as we contain their offense, we can still create scoring opportunities for Ryosuke."
Everyone actually harbored a desire to attack.
After all, everyone present was a Forward.
No one was willing to take on the responsibility of a defender, but for Team Z, this was the best approach.
Therefore, even Raichi, who had the most volatile temper, didn't say much.
Bachira stepped Forward and put his arm around Ryosuke's shoulder, "Tomorrow, please let me witness the true form of a monster."
Kira Ryosuke replied, "Of course."
That night, with Kira Ryosuke present, everyone felt at ease and slept very soundly.
Only one figure, while everyone was asleep, secretly got out of bed, poured a cup of coffee, and hid in the video room to watch the replay of the match against Team W.
Click!
The light in the dark room suddenly turned on.
"Aren't you sleeping yet?"
"There's still a match tomorrow."
Kira Ryosuke leaned against the door, also holding a cup of coffee, looking at Isagi Yoichi who was sitting cross-legged in front of the screen.
"Ryosuke?"
Isagi Yoichi was a little surprised, then awkwardly rubbed the back of his head, "Ah, I can't sleep a bit."
Saying that, he pointed to Chigiri on the screen, who was unleashing himself and running at full speed on the field, and said with a hint of envy, "It's amazing to have such a visibly unique talent, whether it's Chigiri, or Kunigami, even Bachira is like that."
"Ah, and of course, you too."
"I feel like it's still surreal to be able to compete on the same stage as you all."
Kira Ryosuke glanced at him, closed the door, and sat beside him, "Are you thinking about how to transform your weapon into something independent?"
"That's probably the feeling."
A trace of confusion remained in Isagi Yoichi's eyes, "Speaking of which, being able to smell goals, and noticing changes on the field, ultimately still relies on teammates setting me up."
He clenched his fists, "I want to be like you, to have the ability to score solo."
"Tell me, Ryosuke, what should I do?"
Looking at his hopeful eyes, Kira Ryosuke was slightly stunned.
His arrival had, after all, brought about a butterfly effect.
Isagi Yoichi was already beginning to emerge, and he was a little excited; if he grew, the Metavision linkage would allow him to evolve rapidly as well.
Perhaps he could see the scenery in Milmishes's eyes at that time.
Kira Ryosuke said with a smile, "Don't doubt your abilities. The prediction of the field is an extremely terrifying talent. Even looking at the Five Major Leagues, a guy who can analyze different scoring routes on a rapidly changing field is called a monster on the green field."
"Since you can anticipate scenery that others cannot see, then use this time to plan opportunities for you to score."
"Opportunity, huh..."
Isagi Yoichi mumbled, as if a fleeting flash of inspiration had crossed his mind.
Kira Ryosuke didn't say anything more. Compared to directly giving the answer, self-discovery would deepen the impression and understanding. He took the coffee from Isagi Yoichi's hand, "Drinking too much of this will keep you awake, and there's an important match tomorrow."
Walking to the door, he suddenly turned around and said to the stunned Isagi Yoichi, "If you can't find the answer, why not watch what I do tomorrow."
After saying that, he gulped down both cups of coffee.
Not a single drop was wasted.
Isagi Yoichi was full of questions, "Uh... that was coffee I got for one goal point."
But the doorway was empty, no one responded... The next day arrived quickly.
In Team Z's locker room, Bachira asked while brushing his teeth, "Where's Ryosuke? Why don't I see him?"
"Indeed, it's very strange."
Raichi also expressed his confusion, "This guy is clearly very disciplined. Could it be that he's scared of me, and secretly hid away, soiling his pants?"
Kunigami retorted weakly, "Idiot. You're on the same team as him, aren't you? If you have that ability, make Team V scared first."
"And Bachira, it's early morning, dress properly, no flashing."
"Heh? What's the big deal?"
Bachira laughed honestly, "I just want to break free from some shackles that bind me in advance."
"There are no such strange shackles!"
Raichi roared furiously, while his eyes still darted around, "Seriously, there isn't a single reliable guy on this team. Without me, Team Z is just a pile of mud."
"By the way, where did Ryosuke go?"
Just then, Isagi Yoichi quietly raised his hand and stepped Forward, "I probably know where he is."
"Huh?"
Everyone looked over at the sound.
Isagi Yoichi looked somewhat speechlessly at a rolled-up futon in the corner, "He seems to still be asleep."
Yes.
After drinking two cups of coffee, Kira Ryosuke regretted it.
He stayed awake until 5 AM, then fell asleep with bloodshot eyes.
Fortunately, the match started at 11 AM, so there was still plenty of time.
Igaguri, like an NPC from a horror game, slowly crawled towards Kira Ryosuke. He gestured with his eyes to the others, asking if he should wake him up.
Everyone was secretly encouraging him.
Only Chigiri, tying his shoelaces, casually said, "It's probably best not to do that."
"I saw a coffee cup next to his futon, so he probably slept quite late. If you don't want him to play poorly, it's best to give him enough rest."
Hearing him say that, everyone could only give up.
It wasn't until almost 10:30 AM that Kira Ryosuke, with the forced help of Bachira and others, washed up, dressed, and groggily entered the field.
Team V, meanwhile, had been waiting for a long time.
Looking at the yawning Kira Ryosuke, Team V, led by Reo and the others, were all stunned.
An unidentifiable anger surged in their hearts.
"This kid. Does he dare to underestimate our match against Team V so much?"
"It's time to teach him a lesson."
Tsurugi Zanetsu adjusted his glasses, "Bury him, and become a decaying treasure."
He seemed unsure if his wording was correct, and looked at Reo and Nagi, "Is that right?"
Reo gave a playful thumbs-up.
Nagi habitually rubbed his neck and lazily said, "Idiot Zanetsu..."
"Reo, how many goals do I need to score in this match before I can rest? I want to play video games."
Reo held out his palm, "Five goals will be enough."
"I want to prove to the world through Blue Lock that the real treasure already belongs to me, Mikage Reo..."
