Apartment
Koji woke up as he met Suzune in the kitchen and said, "Good morning."
Suzune set down some food and said, "Eat it before it gets cold."
Koji sat down and said, "Thank you for letting me stay."
Suzune sighed and said, "There's no need to thank me so much."
Koji sighed and said, "No. You're wrong. There's something very important you've done that I have yet to thank you for."
Suzune looked at him a bit perplexed but smiled and said, "Well okay."
Koji then got a notification as he opened it. It was a text from Bachira as Koji said, "Looks like Bachira wants to meet up."
Suzune looked and said, "Of course he does. it's been a whole two weeks since he last saw you."
Koji read a bit more and said, "It looks like... he invited everyone."
Suzune tilted her head and asked, "You mean everyone from Blue Lock?"
Koji sighed and said, "Everyone."
Suzune looked at the phone to see she and the other ANHS students had been invited as she shouted, "How did he even get our phone numbers?"
Koji looked to Suzune and asked, "So. Are you up for it?"
Suzune sighed and said, "What kind of people are they?"
Koji thought for a second and said, "Though I'm not sure he'll be there there's a guy similar to you."
Suzune looked a bit curious and asked, "Like Me?"
Koji nodded and said, "Just like you, he had a brother complex."
Suzune kicked him in the shin. Koji feigned pain as Suzune said, "You mention that again and you'll get a lot worse from me."
Koji nodded and asked, "Honestly they're not bad guys."
Suzune sighed and said, "Well alright then. I'll go."

At Mall
Koji and Suzune meet with the ANHS graduates and Koji's Blue Lock friends. Koji gestures to Bachira and says, "I'd like to introduce you to my friends from Blue Lock. This is Bachira Meguru."
Bachira smiles and says, "Oh so you're Koji-Kun's Girlfriend."
Suzune gives a small smile and says, "It's nice to meet you. My name is Horikita Suzune."
She extends her hand as Bachira shakes her hand and says, "So formal. You two are just the same."
Koji then introduces them to Nagi saying, "This is our Lazy Genius Nagi Seishiro."
Nagi sighs and says, "Hey. Hi. I'm gonna go over there and play games on my phone."
Sudo looks perplexed and asks, "He's really the guy who scored for Blue Lock?"
Yosuke sweatdrops and says, "That's just how he is. He's a bit lazy but when he get's fired up he's really amazing."
Sudo nods understanding and says, "So he's just a chill guy."
Yosuke nods as Barou walks over and says, "Ayanokoji. I told you I didn't want to come to this dumbass shit."
Koji sighs and says, "Come on Barou. Have some fun."
Barou glares at him and says, "Fun? Alright. I'll have fun. I'll have fun the moment I going to destroy you in bowling!" as he walks away.
Koji then introduces Reo saying, "This is Mikage Reo. Our resident Chameleon."
Sakaynagi smiles and says, "It was quite impressive. Your ability to replicate other people's techniques. It's too bad your physical ability wasn't good enough to compete."
Reo grits his teeth and says, "I know."
Koji pats him on the back and then Sudo asks, "Hey where's that Itoshi Rin guy?"
Koji sighs and says, "He was scouted by PXG. Right now he's overseas playing for their team. Soon enough I'm sure everyone else here will be scouted and scooped up by major teams as well."
Shibata sighs and says, "Yeah I saw his latest match. He scored a hat trick. he's really been making a name for himself ever since his match against the U20 team?"
Sudo looks at Koji and asks, "What about you man? Why haven't you gotten scouted?"
"I have but the JFU has a lot of plans for me in regards to fan signings and stuff like that. it's honestly a pain," replies Koji.
Sudo looks confused and asks, "Have you even played a single match since then?"
Koji sighed and said, "I've been able to practice a bit but no. I haven't had the time to play a single match."
Suzune looked annoyed and said, "They're honestly wasting his time and talent."
Koji sighed and said, "It's fine. I mean, I need to earn a living, so this should pay pretty well. But I'm not going to tolerate this for too long."
Koji rested his head on the palm of his hand and asked, "How are you and Onodera Sudo?"
Sudo blushed and said, "We're doing pretty well."
Some of the ANHS graduates made knowing faces, teasing him. Sudo then asked, "How about you and Suzune, then?"
Shibata grinned and said, "Have you done it yet?"
Suzune blushed deeply as Ichinose saw this and said, "Wait... did you really?"
Suzune yelled, "Of course not!"
Sakyanagi smirked and said, "Oh really? Because I think the truth is written all over your face."
Suzune blushed even more as they started teasing her as Koji thought, 'A nice calm atmosphere like this is nice sometimes.'

3 Months and 2 Weeks Later
Koji stood in the hall as Ego walked out into the area and said, "Welcome back my diamonds in the rough. From here on out you'll all be participating in a training camp with one of the top 5 clubs in the world. But before that let's welcome a returning player. The one who conquered hell itself to return. Our Wild Card. Isagi Yoichi."
Isagi walked through the doors with a look of absolute egoism as Koji thought, 'Isagi Yoichi... his build is certainly better. Especially his left leg. Could he have learned to be ambidextrous? Wait... that aura surrounding him. He's received White Room Training. So this is what Father meant when he was talking about a child that was attempting to upstage me.'
Isagi glared at Koji and thought, 'It's him. Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.'
—————————————————————————————————————
Right After Isagi Was Eliminated
Atsumi walked into the facility and asked, "You're Ego Jinpachi right?"
Ego looked at him and said, "And you're Ayanokoji Atsumi. Now what exactly do you want?"
Atsumi made a serious face and said, "My son is attending your program known as Blue Lock. I want him withdrawn from the program."
Ego sighed and said, "I'm afraid that's not possible."
Atsumi scoffed and said, "What would it take for you to withdraw him from the program?"
Ego smiles and says, "If he's not the last man standing then that's it for him."
Atsumi then asked, "Then would it be acceptable if I trained a player from your facility? One that could perhaps cause him trouble?"
Ego smirked and said, "There are a wide range of candidates to select from though they are far from the cream of the crop. They are all eliminated players."
Atsumi sighed and said, "Very well. I suppose I'll take one of your many failures."
Atsumi observes the Failed candidates going through multiple drills as he eyes Isagi who is struggling and thinks, 'That one is the worst among them physically but his mindset to strive for success is almost on par with a White Room Student.'
Isagi changes his strategy as his form improves and Atsumi says, "That one shows some potential. I'll take that one."
Ego smirks and says, "I thought you'd choose that one."]
Ego raised his arms to the side and said, "In this place, you will challenge the world. Only the strongest of you will survive. You will participate in a round-robin tournament where clubs will make bids for you based on your performance. While I had intended for each match to be first to 3 goals I've decided to make a change so that each match will be first to 5 Goals."
Koji heard this and thought, '5 goals huh? Very nice. I'd like a hat-trick or two.'
Ego smiles and says, "Now you will all pick a team to play on. Will it be Germany, Italy, France, England or Spain? Pick wisely. But before that, I'd like to show you something. You've all been assigned values based on what you would earn as a salary."
1- Ayanokoji Kiyotaka: 215, 000, 000
2- Itoshi Rin: 100, 000, 000
3- Nagi Seishiro: 73,000, 000
4- Barou Shoiei: 63, 000, 000
5- Shidou Ryusei: 51, 000, 000
6- Hajime Nishioka: 49, 000, 000
7- Bachira Meguru: 47, 000, 000
8- Mikage Reo: 42, 000, 000
9- Yosuke Hirata: 41, 000, 000
10- Oliver Aiku: 40, 000, 000
11- Kurona Ranze: 39, 000, 000
12- Tabito Karasu: 37, 000, 000

17- Shuto Sendou: 25, 000, 000
18- Aryu Junpei: 20, 000, 000
Everyone was shocked thinking, '215, 000, 000... no way... that's insane. He's being put on the same level as the New Generation 11.'
Isagi glared at Koji thinking, 'He's the one I have to defeat. He's the one who eliminated me. I'll have my revenge and reclaim my story!'
Rin sighed and thought, 'My initial Bid was 67, 000, 000. There's still such a large gap between me and Ayanokoji. The football in the French league. It's not intense enough to make me evolve. Unless I can aim my fangs at Ayanokoji my growth stagnates. Either way, I'll close the gap soon enough.
Nagi approaches Koji and asks, "Where are you going?"
Koji looks to Nagi and says, "I'm going to Germany."
Nagi approaches Reo and asks, "Where are you going, Reo?"
Reo looks at Nagi and says, "Nagi. You're my best friend but when we're on the same side we're poisonous to each other. I don't think we should..."
Aura came from Nagi's eyes as he said, "I want to fight on my own. If we're on the same team I'll be tempted to depend on you. I won't allow that."
Reo smiled and said, "I'm going to England."
Nagi nodded and said, "That's two places down." Then Nagi goes to Rin and asks "Hey Rin. Where are you heading to?"
Rin looked interested as he asked, "Huh? Why do you care?"
Nagi sighed and said, " Don't be a pain. Just tell me."
Rin relented saying, "France."
Nagi walked over to Barou and asked, "Hey Maid Barou. Where are you going?"
Barou gave him an annoyed look and asked, "The hell did you call me Hassle Man?"
Nagi sighed and said, "Whichever team you're going to is that last place I want to end up."
Barou smirked and said, "I actually agree with you for once. It's Italy for me so don't follow me around Hassle Man."
Nagi presses the Spain option, and Bachira presses the option as well. Nagi says, "Hey. I want to fight on my own, so..."
Bachira smirks and says, "Don't expect passes to come from me so easily."
Nagi smiles and says, "Got it."

—————————————————————————————————————
Germany Training Area
Koji and the people who selected Germany arrive at the training field. Koji gets the top score each time with Kaiser in second and Isagi in third as Koji thinks, 'As expected Isagi has improved a lot. His physicality is a huge improvement now, mostly due to White Room Training. No doubt from the training his logical thinking thinking has improved as well. He's quite an adaptable person. Very impressive. Still, it'll take more than that to upstage me.'
Koji lines up his shot and shoots. Kaiser lines up his shot saying, "Endlich treffen wir uns, Kiyotaka Ayaokoji. (I've wanted to to meet you for a long time Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.) Ich werd dich duzen, Koji, okay? (I'm going to call you Koji, okay?)" Koji's ball is knocked off course by Kaiser's shot whos says, "Ich heisse Kaiser (My name's Kaiser) und werde "Das unmogliche" Schaffen! (and I do the impossible!) Auf die knie... Blue Lock (On your knees... Blue Lock)."
Koji glares at him as Kaiser smirks and says, "Du bist ziemlich gut, Koji. Deine körperlichen Werte sind besser als meine, aber du bist immer noch nicht so gut wie ich (You're quite good Koji. Your physicals are better than mine but you're still not as good as me) denn ich bin 100 Millionen mehr wert als du (since I'm worth 100 million more than you.)"
Koji looks at him dead in the eye and says, "Ich werde dich vernichten, du (I'll destroy you, you asshat!)"
Kaiser looks surprised and says, "Du verstehst Deutsch? Wie faszinierend (You understand German? How intriguing)."
Ness smiles walking over as he sys, "Das wird Kaiser nicht reichen. Selbst wenn er es versteht, wird der Rest es nicht tun. (That won't do Kaiser. Even if he understands the rest won't)."
Ness comes out with air pods that translate for the rest of the Blue Lock Players. Kaiser grabs Koji by the chin and says, "Koji. The ace striker of Japan. I came here cause I wanted to meet you. You've proven yourself quite a bit so don't disappoint me now."
(Koji is peaking German whenever talking to the German players)
Koji slaps his hand away and says, "I'm afraid I'm taken already so keep your hands off of me."
Kaiser made a serious face and said, "Shut up. I want you to challenge me Koji. I want you to get in my way. Please don't make me think that coming here was a waste."
Koji sighed and said, "Fine. I'll destroy your life then. I'll burn it to the ground."
Kaiser smirked and said, "Ha ha. Nice. Good. I look forward to it Koji."
Koji rubbed his forehead thinking, 'This guy is really irritating. He can get underneath even my skin. However, my face is as monotone as ever.'
Kaiser makes an egotistical face and says, "Until I become the best Striker in the world Blue Lock will be a stopgap, which makes you Ayanokoji Kiyotaka the clown that will lead to my success."
Noa arrives and says, "Stop that Kaiser. It's childish. I won't accept anything but rationality in this team. This team is based on logic and efficiency in scoring goals. If you don't have the stats I won't field you. All of you should remember that." Noa looked to Koji and thought, 'Ayanokoji Kiyotaka. He's an impressive striker from Japan. Now what will happen? Will you trigger Kaiser's evolution or will Kaiser trigger yours?
Koji smiled and thought, 'And you're the reason why I chose this team. The world's top 1 striker. The person I will eventually compete with. To understand you. To surpass you. That is why I came to this team. Bastard Munchen.'
