Kenji's team was at a camping ground next to a camp fire.

Kenji was on his phone by a tree before Nanami handed him a phone to video chat.

Kenji's mom had dark hair and eyes probably in her late 30's.

Kenji: Hey mom.

Maki: Kenji, how are you felling.

Kenji: Good, so when are you coming?

Maki: I can't really tell yet, so what are doing.

Kenji: Me and the guys are camping.

Maki: That's nice, by the way my boss wanted to talk to you.

Kenji: Is he there with you?

Maki: Yeah he is.

: Hello young man, my name is Mr. Kotatsu, I wanted to-

Kenji: As my mom gotten the promotion yet?

Mr.Kotatsu: Well no but-

Kenji throw his jersey in the fire.

Kenji: Throw them in guys!

The rest of the team began to throw their Jersey into the fire as well.

Mr.Kotatsu: Stop, she'll get the promotion.

Kenji: When?

Mr.Kotatsu: Right now.

Kenji: Good.

Maki: Thanks Kenji.

Kenji: No problem mom.

Mr.Kotatsu: Now that we have that token care of, I wanted to talk to you about a sponsorship deal.

Kenji: For how long?

Mr.Kotatsu: The rest of the tournament.

Kenji: Before we can actually pass it we have demanded for you.

Mr.Kotatsu: Which are?

Kenji: One give my mom a promotion.

Mr.Kotatsu: But she just got one.

Rafael: Give her another one.

Mr.Kotatsu: Is that it.

Tobi: Aside of our normal Jersey we need you to come up with a new one.

Robin: Or two.

Gregory: The more the merrier.

Robin: Maybe something with gold and white.

Mr.Kotatsu: Done.

Nanami: Then let's talk about your price and condition.

Mr.Kotatsu: Okay.

...

Nanami was handing the team the new Jerseys which was two shades of green.

Nanami: What do you guys think?

Kenji: Not the coolest design.

Tobi: It isn't half bad,

Rafael: Reminds me of playing of for the Nigerian national team.

Kenji: Well you guys have played for your national team, you're use to boring looking uniforms.

Rafael was about to grab a Jersey before Nanami stopped him.

Nanami: This is Takuya's.

Rafael: But I'm number 17.

Nanami: Not anymore, this is yours.

He checked the back which had number 7.

Nanami: Or do you still want your old number?

Rafael: I'm good with 7.

Nanami: Tobi, this one's yours.

Tobi: Number 9 at least.

Nanami: I'm supposed to ask you this first, what do you say?

She was holding a Jersey with Kenji's name and the number 10.

Kenji: It's tempting but I prefer 4.

Nanami: I knew you would say that but it didn't hurt to try, here's your old number.

She gave him his real Jersey.

Kenji: So who's the real number 10.

Nanami: Kingsley.

Kingsley: Right here.

Nanami: This is yours, number 10.

Kingsley: About time.
