𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐊𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐎𝐅𝐅 began, and Bachira, who had the ball, was immediately face to face with Isagi. Barou was also marking him, so he had to glance between the two repeatedly.

"Bobcut!!" Barou yelled, charging forward.

This sudden outburst made Bachira stop dribbling, allowing Isagi to steal the ball. But Bachira wasn't having it. Quickly passing the ball without looking, Bachira stuck his tongue out.

"Bleh~"

"It's going to you, Aryu!" (M/n) shouted.

Aryu caught the ball in mid-air, shocking Chigiri greatly. Before Chigiri could run to catch up with him, he passed the ball to (M/n), who was waiting in front of the goal.

"Yahoo!" (M/n) jumped in the air. "It's mine!"

"Wrong." Barou appeared beside him and tried pushing the male out of the way. Only, he couldn't. Which shocked him since (M/n) was so...small.

(M/n) sighed upon seeing Barou marking him, so as soon as his foot touched the ball, he quickly passed. "One touch!"

Rin now possessed the ball and was getting ganged up on by Nagi, Isagi, and Chigiri. But despite that, he was able to trick them all and scored.

(M/n) ran up to Rin and jumped up and down on his shoulders. "Nice kill, Rin!"

Rin nodded and returned to his position as the next round soon started.

𝐀 𝐋𝐎𝐓 of things happened in the match. And Isagi's team almost won, but they were no match for Rin and (M/n). That's why they lost.

The last goal Rin made was something else, really. Isagi successfully tackled and took the ball from Bachira's possession. However, that short happiness was canceled when the ball landed on Rin Itoshi's feet.

Isagi could only crouch over and scream in frustration, and the rest of his team was, of course, disappointed as well.

(M/n) felt sorry for Isagi, knowing how bad it meant for the boy to win against Rin, but this didn't stop him from jumping up and down, celebrating the win.

"Yay!" (M/n) cheered, climbing up Aryu's back. The other was shocked at first but kept him steady on his back, keeping a firm grip on his thighs.

"Hmm...Should the two of us pick again?" Aryu asked (M/n).

"Wait a sec..." Bachira breathed out, walking closer to Isagi.

"Meguru?"

"I want...-"

"Shut up." Rin coldly stated. "I'm choosing."

"Huh?" Aryu almost glared.

"That's unusual." (M/n) deadpanned.

"I won't allow any objections. That last play...I couldn't read it at all. For the first time since coming here, I've tasted defeat. Now I have one more person I want to crush. Come on, Yoichi Isagi."

(M/n) lit up with joy. He wanted Isagi as well. Meanwhile, Isagi didn't know how to react.

"You'll be closest to me while you watch me become the best in the world."

Though (M/n) was glad Isagi was joining them, he couldn't help but feel slightly sad to be leaving Nagi again. But he knew the male would pass the selection. He was a strong player, too.

A loudspeaker went off, and a voice could be heard saying, "Blue Lock second selection "Rival Battle"...Rin Itoshi, (M/n) Hinata, Jyubei Aryu, Meguru Bachira, and Yoichi Isagi...proceed to the next round!!!"

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄 players made their way through the 4th stage passageway. Isagi was sauntering, but it was kind of understandable. It was a lot to take in at the moment, anyway.

"Yoichi~ Come on, move those legs." (M/n) spoke singly as he threw an arm around Isagi's slumped shoulder. "You know you're amazing when Rin himself picks you. I was gonna pick you too, actually!"

Isagi slowly turned his head to face the (H/c) male but immediately turned back around once he saw the bright smile displayed on his face. Yep. He's definitely gay.

"T-Thanks..." Isagi mumbled.

"Honestly, I wanted Hyoma Chigiri, a fellow stylian player." Aryu shrugged. "But your back heel shot was style as well. I welcome you, Yoichi Isagi." Aryu spoke with glam.

"Thanks a lot," Isagi said, a little unsure.

(M/n), then, grabbed Isagi's collar and brought him a little bit down towards him so he could whisper in his ear. "Just try to steer clear of Rin Rin. He stays moody." He said, glaring jokingly at Rin.

Isagi needed to pay more attention to what (M/n) was saying because all he was doing was freaking out about how close he was to (M/n). Not to mention how the male literally snatched his collar. He was...into it?

The five finally arrived at their destination, the 2nd selection clear room. There, Ego appeared on a big screen where he went through a long ass speech about luck. (M/n) didn't actually start listening until the end, though.

"Now then, all of you have cleared the second selection. You made the most of your skills and each other's. You've learned the principle behind producing a chemical reaction."

Ego pushed the glasses on his face, fixing them, as he stared at the boys with dead eyes.

"Next is the third selection." He held up a three with his long, slim fingers. "As promised, it'll be a training program with the world's top players."

The TV started glitching, removing Ego's face and replacing it with the top 5.

"It'll start in 24 hours. So how about a 5-on-5 match against these guys?"

(M/n) stared at the screen. His eyes were filled with amazement and excitement. He couldn't wait to play against them!

"Get ready, you caged frogs. It's time to learn about the world."
