Preparation (71)

Shido could barely hold himself back, he wanted the rematch, and every single cell in his body asked for it.

As Shido was stuck in his weird wet dream state, Ego appeared on one of the screens on the walls saying" Good work against the all-stars, it must have been a unique experience for most of you"

"It must have been a unique experience for each one of you, but I won't tell you the purpose of this match"

"After you complete the third selection language selection, a lot has happened, I was planning to narrow you guys down to five players but the plan has changed"

"And that because even as we speak, The bigshots of Japanese soccer are trying to put a kibosh on blue lock and so I decided to send them a challenge"

"Which means the next selection will take place in three weeks and blue lock existence will be riding on it" Ego explained.

A holographic screen appeared in front of Ego showing the blue lock facility riding on top of one match.

'The Japan U-20 match vs the Blue lock eleven' those were the words plastered on top of the hologram.

"If you win this game, you can steal the honor of representing Japan in the U-20 world cup," Ego said with his hands touching his glasses.

His eyes shone with a crazy look onto them that would drag most people into madness.

Some people started to mutter about the last thing that Ego said.

The part about stealing the right to represent Japan, it seemed like this caught all their attention.

"Well they are convinced that there is no way they would lose, they are against a motley crew of thirty-five highschoolers"(A/N before you ask they not factoring in 'him')

"And when they heard they would be against an all-striker team, they snorted with laughter and readily accepted the match"

"Their goal is to shut down the blue lock project and take in a profit of the buzz of a domestic representative game."

"If blue lock loses and became a laughing stock, I will go down in history as a failure in the development of Japanese soccer," Ego said as his hands crushes a hologram of the blue lock project.

"So after hearing all of this, how those that make you feel, are you frustrated due to being underestimated or are you welling up with a desire to give them a surprise?"

"As for me, I can can't state as a fact that as of you are right now, you can turn Japanese soccer on it head" Ego said as his hands mimicked a gun that he pointed at his own head.

Some people in the room started to shudder a bit after hearing this but to Barou team, what Ego said confirmed something for them.

The fact that he said 'for most of you' and not all of you was the confirmation that they needed.

This proved it, they had actually beaten the world five.

"But that said, our opponent a way on a sure win victory, the Japanese team you will be facing as a added number."Ego said as a hologram of Sae Itochi appeared on the screen.

Rin look shock upon noticing his brother on the Japan under-20 team roster.

"Now is the time to risk everything, you have learned about your ego while living here, and you have acquire weapons and learn about chemical reactions"

"The thirty-five of you have gotten a taste of the world five player and winning a spot on the Japanese team is no longer a dream"

"It is a reality that you can reach out and grasp, let's go my lumps of talents, we will be the ones to bring about a new era"Ego said as his eyes looked like the eyes of a player that was awakening.

Meanwhile.

Nakada titled his head a bit to the right, he had won the match but instead of pride, he felt a tiny bit disappointed.

Sure he won against professional player and sure it was fun but the victory felt hollow to him, sure he had crushed some professional but that didn't fill him with pride.

He just felt empty, it probably was the fact that he lost his consciousness after performing that divine kick.

Everything about the kick was perfect and their was nothing that could make it better but that what bother him the most.

Nothing in this world is perfect, if you think something you do is perfect it is probably because you have hit a wall or didn't have that many competitor to push to begin with.

His eyes wonder on the screen that Anrie was holding while he stare at it.

"Are you going to take the tablet" Anrie asked looking at him.

He looked at her and said nothing, she just sight, was this truly how all the prodigy were?

He seemed to be consumed by his urge to improve, he looked at her before he notice something.

A/N I am starting to get bored of writing paragraph chapters….

Also what team should Nakada join in the Neo-egoist league?
