Blue prison monster

On the other side, Yoichi Isagi clenched his fists, agreeing in his heart:

(That's right! Being selected for the starting lineup isn't the end!!)

(I... No! It's us!)

(We will definitely win the match and move towards a more distant future! Towards the world!!)

Ego Jinpachi also revealed an arrogant smile, staring at everyone: "That's the kind of 'ego' I want, the Blue Lock Eleven!"

"The 'Ultimate Training Camp' starts now!"

At the same time, the U-20 Japan National Team training camp...

Inside a room resembling a classroom, rows of teenagers in white casual wear were seated.

Their eyes were all fixed on Sae Itoshi, who stood alone on the podium.

"The decisive battle is scheduled for two weeks from now!"

"To achieve victory in the match, you have been specially called upon to join the U-20 Japan National Team!"

"In addition, there's also the highly anticipated, first-time selection of..."

Saying that, Hiori Yo extended his right arm towards the direction of the door.

"Sae Itoshi!"

Accompanied by Hiori Yo's words, Sae Itoshi, also wearing white training clothes, walked in with a cold expression.

Seeing that the person who came was really Sae Itoshi, several of the teenagers sitting below revealed admiring gazes, and some even spoke out directly.

"Amazing, it's really him!"

"So handsome! Can we really play with him?"

At this time, another person sitting in the back pointed at a silver-haired teenager sleeping on the table and asked suspiciously, "Who's that guy?"

"Ah, I don't know."

"Maybe he's Sae Itoshi's lackey."

That's right, this silver-haired teenager who was sleeping was none other than Ryuga Banjo, who had been coaxed and tricked by Sae Itoshi to come here!

As for why he was sleeping, it all started when he was tricked by Sae Itoshi to go to the training ground.

"Whoa, Sae-bro? This is the training ground you were talking about?!"

Ryuga Banjo looked at the large room filled with various equipment, and the most terrifying thing was that he didn't recognize any of it.

"Yeah, these are basically the most advanced testing equipment."

"Speed, physical resistance, jumping, reaction, prediction, explosiveness, endurance, the equipment here covers almost all the testing items for players."

"Um, Sae-bro, I don't have to test all of these, right?" Ryuga Banjo looked at the various equipment in the room, cold sweat dripping down.

"Yeah, that's right!"

"But Sae-bro, it's already 4 PM..."

"I know, what's wrong? Time is tight now, I need to understand your various stats in order to give you the most correct advice."

"So, do you have any other questions now?"

"Uh, no," Ryuga Banjo replied helplessly.

"Okay, then hurry up and test, the instructions for use are on each corresponding device."

"Oh, right, after you finish testing, the printer over there will print out a form, remember to send it to me," Sae Itoshi said, then turned and walked out of the room.

After Sae Itoshi left, Ryuga Banjo looked at the room full of equipment, his mouth twitching slightly, and finally he could only sigh.

"Alas, I'm starting to miss the life in Blue Lock."

After that, as time passed, Ryuga Banjo realized the seriousness of the matter.

When the time came to 10 PM, Ryuga Banjo fell into silence looking at the remaining 10 pieces of equipment.

"Holy moly! No one told me these devices take so much time! T﹏T"

"How come there are still 10 left? Will I even be able to sleep tonight? T﹏T"

Finally, around 12 AM, Ryuga Banjo finally completed his test.

When Ryuga Banjo arrived at the door of Sae Itoshi's room, he saw a note posted on the door.

【Just put the form on the table at the door, I'm sleeping, do not disturb!】

After Ryuga Banjo saw this sentence, he almost couldn't help but kick the door open, and then drag Sae Itoshi, who was sleeping soundly in bed, up and questioned him.

"I was testing over there until 12 AM, and you're sleeping soundly? T﹏T"

However, Ryuga Banjo still held back, after all, he was a good young man, how could he do such a thing?

By the time Ryuga Banjo returned to his room and finished washing up, it was already past 1 AM, and then he was called up early the next day to gather.

That's why Ryuga Banjo was so sleepy during the day that he couldn't even open his eyes, and after arriving at the gathering place, Ryuga Banjo, seeing that there weren't many people, simply fell asleep.

Back to the present...

At this time, Hiori Yo on the podium continued to clench his fist excitedly and said:

"Everyone knows that our opponent is the Blue Lock team!"

"This match is a gamble on the dignity of the U-20 Japan National Team, we absolutely cannot lose!"

After speaking, Hiori Yo bowed and made a gesture of invitation towards Sae Itoshi: "Sae! Please say a few words to boost morale!"

"Um..." Sae Itoshi was silent for a few seconds before coldly staring at everyone and opening his mouth:

"You should feel honored to play with me."

"I'm not really interested in you, but you probably won't have such an opportunity again in your life..."

"Try not to make me angry, that's all!"

"Huh? This..." Hiori Yo was so surprised by Sae Itoshi's words that he didn't know what to do.

"Haha, too confident, right?"

Listening to the words of the person next to him, that figure who didn't like Sae Itoshi from the beginning stood up directly, his face full of displeasure.

"Don't look down on people, genius!"

"Maybe you are a world-renowned player, but in the end, you are just at the level of a youth training camp, right?"

"I'm a forward who plays in the domestic J1 League!"

"Be careful what you say, in terms of current development, I'm better than you."

That's right, the one who spoke was Akito Shido, the forward of the U-20 Japan National Team.

"Oh, so what?" Sae Itoshi stared at Akito Shido expressionlessly, his eyes full of disdain.

"In a few years, I'll be competing for the domestic scoring title and entering the national team."

"I'll get an annual salary of around 50 million, and then marry a gravure idol and build a happy family."

"At best, that's the peak of your football career!"

Akito Shido's face turned red after hearing Sae Itoshi's words, and he even began to fantasize about his married life with the gravure idol.

"I'm only interested in being the world's number one."

"The size of our ambitions is different."

"For someone like you, if you think those things just now are good, even if you're only a little tempted!"

"You won't become the world's number one, get out of here!"
