All of us, including Teikoku, have already got into position. Someoka and Shourinji were benched, so Kuroi and I will be substituting for them. I wasn't afraid anymore. Nina was gone and so was Kageyama. Finally, I can go back to what I am.
The whistle started, with our kickoff. Shuuya kicked the ball to me and I kicked it back. He ran up ahead and I followed behind. Narukami and Oono tried a sliding tackle, but he dodged it right through. Narukami even tried to block me but I got past him in a breeze.
"Dragon Tornado!"
"Power Shield!"
Blocked. I expected it from him anyway.
"Power Shield renders any shoot ineffective." He said. Shuuya was shocked, but I wasn't. Koujirou told me that before.
"I'm never going to score a goal from you, am I?"
"Nope! This move can block shoots! And any shoots are unavailable!"
"Is there a way to break the darn thing?!"
"When you face me in a match, you'll figure it out!"
"I'm breaking that wall..." I muttered.
The ball was thrown to Kidou as me and Shuuya ran back. He passed it to Gojou, who then passed it back to Kidou, and got past Kuroi. Jimon had run up ahead, so I assume he was going to use Hyakuretsu Shot.
Kidou kicked it in the air. Yep.
"Hyakuretsu Shot!"
"Nekketsu Punch!"
The ball bounced off, but luckily it hit the goalpost. I sighed in relief. For sure I thought he would score... but I know Endou could've stopped it.... right. Kageyama told him. Oh come on! Why now?!
I glanced at Kidou; I know he really needs to win this, but we need it more.
The ball was passed around again, and Jirou did a heading shoot. He fumbled with it, but managed to catch it. Yeah, I blame Kageyama for this.
Endou passed it to Kuroi, but Kidou had already gotten the ball in a flash. He always managed to get past Kuroi when he least expects it, so I wasn't really surprised. He got past Kabeyama by putting the ball up in the air, run around him, and get the ball when it dropped. He was about to kick the ball in the goal, when Shuuya came back from the front and blocked him from doing so. Doumen (yes the little guy, who I now know his name), got the lose ball, but then kicked it out when he saw that Kidou had injured his leg.
"Jirou! Why did you kick it out?! You could've scored!"
"You're more important than the goal!"
Kidou had gotten back to his position, and it was Doumen who had started the corner kick. I intercepted it and ran for the goal.
"Nereus Stream!"
"Power Shield!"
Darn. I was hoping that it would work... Never mind. There's always another time.
"Hey,"
"Hmm?" I glanced at Koujirou.
"You still haven't figured it out?" He gave a small smirk.
I felt my face heat up, then looked away. "S-Someone else will figure it out sooner or later!" I said, before running back to my position.
Shuuya used Fire Tornado, but it was deflected as well. Again, I expected it from him.
"It can be used more than once! Awesome, right?"
