"Don't go head-to-head with him! Just stall until I get back to defend!"

Running to the middle of his own team's midfield, Wanjo Ryugo didn't expect his four defenders to stop him.

But if they could just stall until he returned to defend, that would be the greatest success.

Otoya Eita also heard Wanjo Ryugo's shout and thought to himself with some surprise,

(He really underestimates me. Does he think these guys can stop me?)

Otoya Eita showed no signs of slowing down, his body in a diving posture as he charged towards V Team's four defenders.

"We'll surround him side by side, don't give him a chance to get past us one by one."

The one who spoke was Hotta Yamato, and the other three members of V Team agreed, replying,

"Okay, you have the most experience in defense, we'll listen to you."

As they spoke, the other three defenders of V Team stood side by side with Hotta Yamato, greatly blocking Otoya Eita's forward space.

Hotta Yamato thought that, in any case, they would eventually be passed by Otoya Eita.

If they could delay him as much as possible, their interception would be considered a success.

In fact, he was very confident this time that he could hold Otoya Eita back.

Because if Otoya Eita wanted to use skill to get past their four side-by-side formations, it would definitely take some time.

This would give Wanjo Ryugo ample time to return to defend.

Moreover, after Hotta Yamato's careful observation, Otoya Eita rarely chose a head-on tactic.

So he wasn't worried that Otoya Eita would use a method like Wanjo Ryugo, forcibly knocking them down to break through.

Just as Hotta Yamato was thinking confidently, Otoya Eita had already rushed to the front of the four of them.

But something unexpected happened to Hotta Yamato: Otoya Eita suddenly changed direction and rushed laterally towards the middle of V Team's backfield without slowing down.

Hotta Yamato also quickly reacted and shouted,

"Quick! Quickly follow me and catch up!"

Hotta Yamato was on the outermost side of Otoya Eita's breakthrough direction, so he was the first to rush towards him, closely following behind Otoya Eita.

With a distance of less than half a body length, Hotta Yamato thought to himself,

(He really has no other choice, Big Bro is about to run back!)

(When he faces the encirclement of the four of us plus Big Bro, I'll see what he can do this time!)

(Haha, my defense really worked, Big Bro will definitely praise me for being amazing later...)

"Huh?"

In Hotta Yamato's exclamation, Otoya Eita suddenly slowed down, allowing Hotta Yamato, who was rushing forward with all his might, to pass him by half a body length.

Immediately afterwards, Otoya Eita made a cut, kicking the ball from behind Hotta Yamato towards V Team's penalty area.

When Hotta Yamato turned his head to look at the ball, Otoya Eita himself had accelerated and passed him, rushing towards the direction of the ball.

Hotta Yamato was directly dumbfounded, he couldn't believe that he had been passed so easily.

This extinguished the self-confidence that he had finally ignited.

But fortunately, Wanjo Ryugo took advantage of this short time to finally run back into the penalty area.

Otoya Eita, who arrived in front of the ball, directly made a shooting motion.

While complaining, Wanjo Ryugo also turned his head to look in the direction the ball was flying.

U Rihito's figure was waiting for the ball to arrive there, and at this time, U Rihito's face was smiling as he opened his mouth and said,

"Then I'll finish it off."

"Dreaming, Hyena Crow?"

"You're really relentless, Lower Eyelash Genius."

That's right, Itoshi Rin's figure appeared again in front of U Rihito, closer to the ball, waiting for the ball to arrive.

(As expected, I still couldn't fool this guy. I even deliberately changed the direction of my run just now, but he still saw through it.)

(He guessed that Otoya would choose to pass the ball instead of shooting himself, and would pass it to this position.)

(But I was prepared for this, did you really think I didn't guess that it would end up like this?)

"Don't think you can intercept my ball every time, Genius!"

U Rihito's movements had been reserved from the beginning, he left himself space to be able to act at any time.

He wouldn't be caught off guard by Itoshi Rin like last time. This time, he was prepared in advance, as long as Itoshi Rin appeared in front of him,

He could instantly change direction and run behind Itoshi Rin to block him.

Things developed exactly as U Rihito had expected, U Rihito rushed behind Itoshi Rin and directly blocked him with his arm.

Now, not only could U Rihito not receive the ball, but Itoshi Rin couldn't receive the ball smoothly either.

"Pass the ball to me, Rin!"

Wanjo Ryugo raised his arm in his own penalty area and shouted towards Itoshi Rin.

At this time, Hiori Yo also cleverly appeared in Itoshi Rin's field of vision, obviously wanting to give Itoshi Rin another passing option.

"Hey, U! I'm here!"

"I'm over here!"

"My position is good, you can pass it to me too!"

The other members of X Team were also around U Rihito, wanting to help U Rihito out of the predicament.

(What to do? This Itoshi Rin guy is too difficult to get rid of. With him here, I can't shoot at all.)

(Pass it to someone else? That won't work either! With their abilities, let alone shoot,)

(In this situation with so many people, I'd be thanking the heavens if they could pass the ball back to me.)

(Huh?! So many people? I have an idea!)

While Itoshi Rin was focused on blocking his position, U Rihito gestured in one direction several times.

In the next moment, U Rihito, after finishing his gestures, rushed forward, using his arm to push against Itoshi Rin, regardless of the consequences.

Itoshi Rin was stunned. Although he didn't know what U Rihito wanted to do, he wouldn't let U Rihito go easily.

The arm that was blocking U Rihito also used all its strength to hold U Rihito down, not letting him rush forward.

The two of them blocked each other like this, welcoming the arrival of the ball.

After the ball appeared in front of the two of them, U Rihito directly kicked towards the ball, while Itoshi Rin wanted to step on the ball and pull it back.

The two of them touched the ball at basically the same time, and Itoshi Rin was kicked away by U Rihito as soon as he stepped on the ball.

The ball flew back to the right side of V Team's backfield at a not-too-fast speed. Wanjo Ryugo looked at the ball flying towards him and thought happily,

(What is this doing? Why did he pass it to me?)

(He's showing his cards, he's not pretending anymore, is he? Are you a spy, kid?)

Just as Wanjo Ryugo was wondering, he accidentally caught a glimpse of an extremely fast figure out of the corner of his eye, quickly rushing out from behind him.

To be precise, it was rushing towards the ball passed by U Rihito, and this figure also answered Wanjo Ryugo's doubts.

(Heh, I knew it, there's no way U Rihito would pass the ball to me for no reason.)

(So it was passed to you, Otoya Eita!)
