Blue prison monster

Ego Jinpachi coldly replied,

“Yes, that’s right.”

“It’s to destroy your half-baked confidence!”

“Everything, including cultivating the hunger to drive you to become the world's best, is a mechanism I designed.”

These words made everyone in the room even angrier, and they shouted all at once,

“What the hell!”

“We're not your toys!”

Ego Jinpachi said with a mocking tone,

“Idiots! Isn't this attitude of yours half-baked?”

“Listen up. Take 'Noel Noa,' for example.”

“He’s currently hailed as the world's best striker, and he grew up in the slums of France.”

“He came from poverty, surrounded by crime. For him, the only way to change his fate was to play soccer!”

“Without any exaggeration, soccer was his only way out.”

“There are countless strikers in the world who grew up in such environments. Their hunger for goals is immeasurable.”

“In the Land of Cherry Blossoms, you can survive even if you lose the ball. You people living privileged lives can never acquire that hunger for goals.”

“Blue Lock is here to make you acquire that hunger!”

“In fact, you came here because you wanted to defeat people ranked higher than you, believing you could win, right?”

“This hunger can be transformed into the selfishness to change the world.”

On the big screen, Ego Jinpachi paused for a moment, then the corners of his mouth turned up as he continued,

“Hmph, the Blue Lock Second Selection is about to begin.”

“The purpose of the First Selection was to turn 0 into 1, which was to make you understand what a striker truly means!”

“And those who pass the Second Selection will participate in an intensive training camp with top players from various countries selected by me!”

The people in the room also became excited.

“Huh? Really?”

“Awesome!”

“We can actually train with top players from other countries! We will definitely keep winning, Ryuga!”

“Yeah, Hyori. We’ll keep winning.”

Banjou Ryuga was also quite excited after hearing Ego Jinpachi's words. He really wanted to see how big the gap between himself and the world's top players was!

“The explanation ends here. Whoever is ready can enter that door alone.”

After Ego Jinpachi finished speaking, a door appeared in front of everyone.

“Huh? By myself? Not everyone together?”

“Ah~ It's over, bro. I might be eliminated T﹏T”

“Are we going to be separated, Ryuga?”

“Do your best, Hyori. See you in the later stages!”

Ego Jinpachi then explained to everyone,

“Obviously, the difficulty of the Second Selection is much higher than the First Selection.”

“If you encounter good teammates and happen to survive, be mentally prepared!”

“In the Second Selection, the trash will be eliminated first.”

“Only true egoists can remain! Good luck to everyone.”

Hotta Yamato said with a tragic face,

“Bro, Rin-bro, Hyori, I'm very happy to have met you. I'll go home and continue cheering for you. I probably won't be able to make it through this Second Selection T﹏T”

Banjou Ryuga looked at Hotta Yamato's appearance, patted him on the shoulder and smiled,

“Alright, kid. Don't be discouraged. What if you get lucky and advance?”

“Hmph, still so much nonsense.”

Itoshi Rin snorted coldly. While everyone in the room was still observing, he took the lead, picked up two soccer balls and placed them under his feet.

He kicked the first ball out directly, then waited for the opportunity to adjust his posture and kick again.

To everyone's surprise, the second ball kicked by Itoshi Rin actually collided with the first ball that was kicked out.

【Clang!】

Immediately afterwards, Itoshi Rin walked to the door and said lightly,

“Open the door. Warm-up is over.”

Then Itoshi Rin walked into the door, and his cartoon portrait and name lit up on the big screen.

“Itoshi... Rin?”

Hearing Isagi Yoichi's surprised voice, Banjou Ryuga said to Hyori Yo with an angry face,

“Seriously? Hyori, Rin that kid is such a show-off!”

“Damn it! He got to show off.”

“No, I have to do it too. Watch me blast the door open with one kick and shock these people to death.”

Hyori Yo quickly stopped Banjou Ryuga and said,

“Alright, alright, Ryuga. Let's just go in. It's kind of awkward with so many people.”

“Oh, right. Then I'll go in first, Hyori. See you in the next stage~”

Banjou Ryuga stretched his shoulders and also walked into the door.

What came into Banjou Ryuga's eyes was a green artificial turf.

(This is the first stage, right? Alright, let's see how long it takes me to score 100 goals.)

As Banjou Ryuga was thinking, a ball suddenly shot out from the wall, and at the same time, a blue virtual person appeared in front of him.

Banjou Ryuga, who easily stopped the ball, smiled,

“Yo, this holographic projection is quite realistic.”

“Then let's simply test the defensive ability.”

After saying that, Banjou Ryuga tossed the ball up. When the ball fell to the position he needed, he decisively kicked the ball!

【Bang!】

The projection person also reacted in time, immediately jumping towards the oncoming ball, but the ball flying towards the upper right corner suddenly fell, shooting into the goal.

GOAL! !

At the same time, the big screen also lit up with numbers.

First Stage 『Time 89:30, remaining to clear, 99 goals』

“Heh, then I have to speed up, so that Rin that kid won't clear it first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, another soccer ball shot out from the wall. This time, Banjou Ryuga kicked the ball directly before it landed!

【Bang! !】

Before long, Banjou Ryuga scored 30 goals! At this time, the difficulty level on the big screen also changed to LV.2

At the same time, three yellow humanoid signs appeared in front of the goal.

“That's right, otherwise wouldn't it be a little too easy?”

Even though he had scored 30 goals, Banjou Ryuga hadn't even broken a sweat.

Immediately afterwards, Banjou Ryuga adjusted the angle, kicked the ball, and directly bypassed the three humanoid obstacles through a large arc, shooting towards the goal.

Although the projection person accurately jumped towards the direction of the ball, the ball happened to hit the goalpost and rebounded into the goal.

GOAL! !

“Phew~ That was close.”

Banjou Ryuga always had a smile on his face. For him, this kind of stage was purely playing a game.

Being proficient in various shots, even if they are useless, he still has a cannon shot.

There is nothing that a cannon shot can't solve. If there is, then two shots!

After some time, Banjou Ryuga's shot count reached 60 goals! At this time, the level of difficulty changed again to LV. MAX!

“Here it comes, the highest level!”

The three humanoid obstacles in front of the door began to move. The ball shot out of the wall, the ball speed became faster, and it was still a spinning ball.

“Hmph, smash it, I won't pay for it!”

A purple light flashed in Banjou Ryuga's eyes, he quickly rushed to the front of the ball, and directly blasted the ball out.

【BOOM!】
