John's POV:

Turns out that trying to find out about the supernatural when you're not really part of it is very very hard. Even after eight years of searching in the US, I couldn't find anything that could teach me magic. 

I honestly hate the fact I'm not blasting out ki waves or that I'm not Susanoo-ing everything I see as a threat, but whatever, I don't need cheats to win! 

This is a rigged game, a rigged game where those with sacred gear are the house, they have a better starting hand than me. It's not like I'm a devil or angel who has increased physical capabilities. I'm a human with human capabilities. No matter how much I train, there will always be a barrier I won't be able to break through, no matter how much effort I put in breaking that barrier, it will never break, that's the human limit. It's always existed, and will always exist. 

That doesn't mean I need to turn into another race to win though. 

Many forget that power is not the only method to win a fight! 

The eyeshield 21 moto is:

- Power

- Speed

- Technique

I completely agree with this. What did you think I'd say I disagree and then say there's a fourth item in this list? What would that be? Strategy? Intelligence? If so then that's because you don't truly understand this trio! 

After all, strategy and intelligence isn't part of it, because that's what binds the three together. 

- How do you use your speed to break through their power?

- How do you use technique to -- not out-speed, but to slow them down?

- How do you use your power to throw them most efficiently?

How? Obviously that's for one to determine, there is no wrong strategy, just a wrong way to use them. Even losing can be a good strategy if properly used!

What? You want an example?

Fine. No problem~♫~

I turned my head left and right and found the person I was looking for. 

This is the method I(John Silver) use to identify people

----------------------------------------------------

[Identification]

Name: Rias Gremory

Power: Way Stronger than me

Speed: Slightly slower than me

Technique: Way lacking compared to mine

Potential: Unknown

IP: 70%

------------------------------------------------

What's IP you ask? No, it's not her "Internet Protocol."

IP is what I like to call Idiocy Percentage!

The higher it is, the dumber you are in my eyes, the lower it is, the harder it is to trick you and the harder it is to utterly wreck you in a strategy game like chess.
