[Another full match in this chapter + a little extra. Long Chapter Ahead]

For this 3rd stage the 3 man team we formed will have a mini game battle blue lock man will be the goalie for both our teams. That hologram thing we had when we did the 100 goal match, the first team to score 5 points wins & the winning team will select a player from the losing team. Then they'll steal that player & form a 4th team

"Steal.... a teammate...?"

"Woah... it's like uh......"

"Hana Ichi Monme"

[Hana Ichi Monme is a traditional childrens game in which 2 groups compete with members by playing rock, paper, scissors]

Each time they advance to the next stage they add a new members, once they create a 5 man team & advance to the next stage they'll have cleared the 2nd selection round. However the losing team that had they're teammate stolen, must return to the previous stage. Who ever loses there becomes a 2 man team & then when a team loses the 2 on 2 battle, the player who remains unchosen at the end. Will be forced to leave this is the 2nd selection round, in which we'll steal our rivals. This is the rivalry battle, furthermore we get to choice the teams we want to play agaisnt. Match-ups are only finalized when both teams are on agreements.

"I see.... that means more teams of 3 will be coming here"

"Right..."

"So we just gotta wait then?"

"Yep~ seems like it my little monster"

"I don't mind waiting, we aren't in such a rush anyways...... yuki"

In that case then we don't have to force ourselves to play agaisnt rin, nagi then continued to talk & get our attention.


"But.... if the winning team gets to steal someone, then you should play agaisnt who ever you want with you're team right?"

"Exactly, the ones you fight alongside will be they key to advancing & to aid those decisions, i'm presenting the new blue lock rankings, they're not fake this time of course"

Ego changed the numbers on our uniforms, i was 15, bachira 16 & nagi was 7.


"This is the order in which you all cleared the first stage & of course this rank will change in accordance with you're performance in he upcoming matches, all of you standing here are those who are able to turn 0 into 1 in the battlefield. This will smash those 'Ones' together, mix them up & elevate them. Whoever can control the chemical reaction between egos, will be strikers able to seize the ticket to the next stage, if you want to win use whatever means neccessary"

With that being said ego left & shut off the screen, so i guess from now we'll be fighting to steal our rivals. That's both exciting & scary, bachira groaned & put his arms behind his head.


"Man that's another harsh rule"

"So basically you need to gather 5 players to win"

"Right, also it seems like there's no need for us to hurry to pick an opponent. So.... what do you think my little monster?"

I clapped my hands together slightly & turned to face them both.

"Okay hold on you 2, if one of us gets tolen then it would be bad for us, good... but bad too"

"I'm not going anywhere my little yuki & if i do end up being stolen.... i know you'll just win me back"

"I just joined you're team so i'm not leaving either..... yuki"

Bachira grabbed my face to face him & pulled me towards him.

"Yea so don't make that sad face if either of us get stolen, i'll be sad to get seperated from you but we also gotta advance to the next stage somehow. Even if it means we gotta split"

"..... But i wanted to keep playing soccer with you guys & advance together...."

"I know my little monster.... but we gotta do what we gotta do in order to advance. so no sad faces 'kay? keep the smile i adore so much~ i know you'll win us back & if you get stolen we'll do the same for you"

Nagi walked closer to us & leaned himself forward a little to glare at us.

"Yea Yuki.... don't start backing down now, i want to play soccer with you. So you're not leaving us just yet if something happens we'll make it work"

Despite the fact that either of us could get stolen, nagi & bachira still cheered me up & encouraged me. It's true that it would be dissapointing if we get seperated but we also gotta do what we can to advance to the next stage, so i guess we wait for a new enemy then? one of rin's team started to freak out though which got my attention. It caught me by surprise he had no confidence at all, then the other guy suggested rin to go agaisnt 4, 5 & 6 & something about that being the 'Styl' thing to do whatever that means, he pointed at us & said that if he beat us then they could advance to the next stage. But rin told them to shut up when they started talking.

"It doesn't matter who we play agaisnt, i'll end it quickly & advance. You guys are just here to take up space"

"Huh, you have such a styl face i'll give you that, but what's the big idea ignoring me?"

"H-Hey!! don't fight!!"

They started bickering, i guess they're not friends at all. Bachira leaned himself over towards nagi a bit.

"The fuck is a styl...?"

"It's probably short for stylish"

"Oh"

"Don't get the wrong idea the 3 of us only happen to get teammed up because we finish the fastest, you're just stepping stones for me. You guys & all of blue lock, win & get to represent japan in the U-20 league. The only reason i'm here is to take advantage of that rule, all of this is to represent japan & then surpass my older brother.... the purpose of soccer to me is to crush Sae Itoshi"

Oh that's right, rin is the younger brother of sae right? or so i heard, bachira just shuckled at what he just said.

"That guy is a real egoist~"

"It seems like that team...... is just weirdos"

At that moment, i could only think of one thing. If we wanted to advance to the next stage then we have to do it.


"Bachira..... Nagi..... i'm sorry..."

"For what little monster?"

"Yuki....?"

I ignored them for a moment & called out to rin, bachira & nagi just observed me.


"It doesn't matter who you play agaisnt right?, so rin.... battle me then. Let's have a match"

I heard bachira shuckle under his breath & nagi just glared at me when i said that.

"Hehehe~ i figured~ there goes my little monster again, always looking for a challengue~"

"I had the same idea..... yuki"

Rin just glared at me when i said that to him, his demeanor was still the same. Not changing at all.

"Yea i don't care, anyone will do"

With that being said we went to confirm the next match, they touched the buttons on the door getting our fingerprint confirmations & the screen buzzed showing on the screen who will we go up agaisnt 3 vs 3 us agaisnt them, the rivalry battle now begins. This match will be held on a special 0 by 30 mini field, the goals are also smaller then normal. Both goalkeepers will be indentically skilled blue lock men, the winning team will steal 1 player from the opposing team & advance to the next stage. The losing team will lose a member & go back a stage, it's a 3 on 3 battle for 5 points. Team White vs Team Red. Rin, jyubei & Roshi vs Me, Bachira & Nagi. It doesn't matter that they're ranked higher then us i just want to test my power agaisnt blue lock's top 3, i wanan win & make rin my teammate. The whistle blew loudly & the ball was rolled over to me, so now we start. I quickly passed it over to bachira, he received & caught it when i did.

"Here i go~"

"Go cover bangs tokimitsu"

"Ah... okay!"

"The blue lock ranking is just the order in which we clear the first stage right? You don't scare me one bit!"

Bachira suddenly startled to move side to side really fast when tokimitsu tried to block him.


"Ah... man.... scissors!? he's so fast!"

He then quickly got past him with the ball.

"Sorry! he slipped past me!!"

"I also leveled up in the room with blue lock man!"

"Nice bachira!"

"You're next rin! come my little monster~"

"Right!"

Bachira made it look like he was passing to me but tricked them.


"But it's actually going.... to Nagi!!"

"Nagi!!"

"Right"

Nagi quickly received & caught it when he passed it over to him, but jyubei quickly got behind him to block.


"I'm.... On it...."

"....!!"

"I'll stop you with styl"

But before he could do anything nagi quickly passed it back & sended it towards me.

"This distance.... this timing.... it's in you're range..... Yuki"

"Thanks Nagi!!"

Such a delicate pass, okay focus on the impact. With no excess power, my new direct shot. I quickly kicked the  ball with force & scoared a goal, giving us 1 point, the whistle blew loudly when i did & the screen now showed Team White 1 point scored. Thanks to the training i got in the first stage, i've definitely leveled up.

"Yay!! My Little Monster!~ You've improved~"

"Yep, nothing pointless. But this is just only the beggining"

Nagi jogged up towards me & high fives my hand, bachira just tackled hugged me from behind & held me close. We all understand each other's weapons so that's only an attack all 3 of us can do, it's super effective so we might actually win this. I shuckled & smiled at them.

"Nagi, Bachira, let's continue"

"Right"

"Yep~ let's keep it going my little monster~"

Rin just glared at us & exhaled softly getting our attention.

"Haah..... that's enough. I've got a good idea of the level you guys are & it's so mediocre i could die"

The ball was given to rin next, he put his feet over it & held it for a moment.

"Battling with this single ball... you still..... think of this as just a sport right? you just really piss off.... This is... a battlefield. Just now you turned you're backs... on a gun shooting soldier"

".......?"

"Hm...?"

Rin continued to glare at us, his demeanor had changed once more & he looked more intimidating then before.


"That's why... you're mediocre"

He quickly kicked the ball from the center line not even giving us a chance to block or do anything, it was so fast it honestly caught us by surprise & shocked us, he immediately scored 1 point for his team by doing that.


"Woah!!"

"Huh?"

"Shit...!!"

Bachira & nagi were still surprised he did that & honestly i was too, bachira wiped his face with his hand & exhaled softly.


"Huh? is that allowed?"

"Yep, sure is but... it usually doesn't work."

"Super goal!!"

"Hey that was to styl, don't leave me out & do it yourself"

"I said that it doesn't matter wether you're my enemy or my teammate, you're just mediocre to me. Let's just get this over with this is seriously a waste of my time"

"This guy....."

I just grunted & growled at rin

"Hey hold on... i'm putting my life on the line to be here too, you're also playing soccer for the sake of you're dream right?"

"A dream? it's nothing so stupidly naive as that.... Losing soccer means losing the reason for my existance it's the same as dying, to me soccer is a battle to the death. 

"To the deaths?"

"That's absurd..."

"... This guy seems like a real hassle...."

"Haha!! what a weirdo~"

"Bring it on so i can kill you, you're mediocre playtime ends here"

"What the hell...? it's still just soccer....."

"Now you're just seriously Rude"

His really good, but we can't give up now. He threw the ball back over to me, i held it with my feet when he did, i turned to face nagi & bachira again.

"Nagi, Bachira Again"

"Right"

"Yep, all yours my little monster~"

Now it's getting interesting, let's fight to the deaths then. I exhaled softly & kept my composure.

"Okay..... Bachira!!"

"On it my little monster!!~"

I passed the  ball over to him & he quickly received & caught it, no matter how amazing rin is on his own, this is still a 3 on 3 team battle to get 5 points, i'll make him regret underestimating us. Bachira ran across the field with the ball.


"Rin.. i won't let you touch this ball"

Bachira just lure him & instead passed the ball over to nagi, but before he could receive it jyubei blocked it & stole the ball instead. He jumped & hit the ball away from him.

"That's so high!!"

"Damn he saw through it...."

"i've... descended to earth you're handling is styl but we can't shine if we don't touch the ball"

Nagi just glared at him when he did that.

"That's a hell of a jump, i'm about the same height but..."

They quickly got in position again.

"Get the rebound tokimitsu!! then pass to me infront of the goal!!"

"Huh!? Ah!! Damn!! here you go then jyubei!!"

Bachira quickly kicked it away from him before he could pass it.

"Ah!! Stop that!!"

"Heading you're way little monster~"

"Nice cut bachira!!"

I quickly caught the ball & received it, having a rebound infront of you're goal is usually a bad spot to be in but if i just carefully hold on to it... before i could even process & think ryubei kicked the ball away from me despite the fact that i was blocking him. He kicked the ball from behind me & immediately scored a goal putting us at 2-1.
