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.
