Blue lock: The God of the field

The second stage [35]

"That hunger will become an ego that can change the world"Ego said in a casual voice.
To be fair at this point I just wanted to test myself against the player that have made it so far.

"Now then, lets start the second selection round"Ego said after finishing his speech.
"We will now begin the second selection round"He said looking at us and as those words left his lips, I could feel every cell of my body getting excited.

"I'm the first selection, all of you fought to learn what it mean to turn your "0" into a "1" as a striker"Ego explained

"And on out brand new training fields, you will be fighting to turn your "1" into "100",the second selection round have five stages, only the one who clear a particular stage are able to level up and advance to the next one"Ego explain as a hologram appeared in his hands showing us a visual representation of what we are going to do.

"Clearing the challenge in the first stage is your objective and those who are able to cleat all five stage in the second selection will participate in a special training camp with top players from around the world who I have selected"Ego said as hologram of people appeared in the screen but as their body were completely black mostly every could not recognize them but as I look into the Brazilian, Spanish and French flag, I could recognize some facial features.

Some people look impressed while I mainly just looked very excited, I couldn't wait to actually play against some actual good players.

There is only so many time you can play against garbage players before you have to call it quits.
"That cover it, warm up however you like" Ego said as he move his finger in a way that will told us to go away.

"Once you've prepared yourself, enter the gate one at a time"Ego said and to that I notice that a couple people looked a bit shocked and a bit surprise.

"So we won't be together"Bachira said looking at me to which I just ruffle his hair a little saying"I will be disappointed in you if you don't make it"

"The first stage is an individual battle, once you in, you can't go back"Ego said laying out the rule
"Remember that if you don't advance to the second stage, you won't see your rivals again,"

"This goes without saying but the difficulty of the second selection is drastically higher than the first, no matter how much you may have done up until now, it doesn't  matter if you can't pass this"

"Those of you who have you ridden your teammates coattails had better prepare yourself, the second selection will sort out the garbage, only the true will remain.goor luck"Ego said as the monitor finally cuts and the screen turn black.

As soon as the screen turned black I stretched a bit before I walked toward where the soccer balls were and took one before I kick in the air and as the ball land.

I gracefully trap it with my foot, instantly trapping the ball, I then gently out the ball in the soccer ball bin before I said"alright, I am done strecthing"

After I said those words, I walked toward the door as it open before and close behind me as I continue to walk with a tired look on my face.

I soon arrived inside a very small field that seem to be around the same size as the area we were forced to play tag in.

Suddenly a ball was launched at me at a very moderate speed and without thinking much about it, I trapped it.

I then notice a hologram that was pretty tall wearing a goalkeeper's glove along with having the blue lock logo as his face.

The hologram stood in front of the goal and I noticed that the area that they gave me was shrinking slowly but with my eyes, I could notice it.

With the ball on my feet and the area decreasing along with the hologram that looked like a keeper guarding the goal.

I knew what to do but I first wanted to see how good the hologram was, I kicked the ball toward of the corner of the goal and as the ball curved the keeper was able to punch the ball away.

I smiled slowly as I realize that this keeper is not complete and total garbage like I expected, however, it seem to be short sighted as the ball that he punched away landed inside the space that I could move in.

And without waiting for it to recover, I shot the ball with all I had toward the opposite side of the keeper.

The ball softly hit the back of the net as some sort of hologram appeared above blue lock man.
                                   1ST STAGE
                                 TIME.     89:41
                                  CLEAR AFTER
                                    100 goals

I read what was written in the screen and I just smile as I realize this simple task that I have to do, I started to stretch myself a bit.

I was getting excited at the idea of testing myself against this blue-lock man.

A/N I feel like at this point it is clear that I have favorites. Anyway next chapter will be mostly about him shooting against the blue lock man.
