Tendou watched his once again soaring popularity points and nodded to himself. His slick talk wasn't just random.
His line, "Can't win at all? I don't understand those words," had a source. At this moment, many viewers were reminded of their childhood memories by his lines.
'Tiga!'
'Can't win? I don't understand! I'm in tears!'
'Just for that line from Tendou, you have to take this light of mine, even if you don't want it.'
'Raise your hands, brothers!'
'Raise your sister's hand! You think this is a Spirit Bomb?!'
'o(>▽<)o'
'( T_T)＼(^-^ ), go, Tendou! This is the last of my light!'
The "sand sculpture" netizens are always full of joy; this saying will never go out of style.
After Tendou had unknowingly harvested a wave of popularity, he turned off the bullet comments and continued to focus on the match.
...
After the match restarted, Tendou was not in a hurry to attack. He, along with Karasu and Reo, began to pass the ball around in their own half. The situation on the field now was that, apart from the hot-headed Loki who was sticking to him like glue, the other four, Luna and company, had pulled their lines back very deep. Their formation looked a bit like a 4-0-1, with the defense packed with players. It was definitely not a good time to attack.
Luna and the others looked at each other, feeling even more that this little brat was not simple. No wonder this guy dared to play as a libero. Tendou's reading of the game was far beyond his peers.
To play as a libero, besides all-around technique, you also need three hard requirements: a grasp of the game situation, and extraordinary football IQ. Without these things, you can forget about playing as a libero.
At this moment, they could completely just wait quietly for Tendou to make a move. However, if they did that, it would be a bit of a disservice to their status. To play defensively against a group of amateur players... if word got out, they would lose all face.
And so.
After 3 minutes, the field, which had been quiet for a while, became heated again. The World All-Star Team began to press forward.
The pressure on Tendou was undoubtedly the greatest. Loki was always staring at him, and Dada Silva and Adam Blake were also eyeing him like tigers.
A two-man press.
Tendou once again used his iron back to push Loki away and nutmegged him with his heel. But this time, it wasn't a pass. He turned quickly and got behind Loki to regain control of the ball.
And then.
A one-touch pass after controlling the ball, no hesitation at all. This time, his target was Otoya on the right wing.
Otoya, from a family of ninjas, started moving silently, but Cavasoz was already prepared. The Argentine "big baby's" dynamic vision was different from ordinary people's. Otoya was, after all, not Kuroko; his presence was quickly captured by the opponent.
"Pass the ball, Eita!"
Karasu shouted. The chemistry between them made Otoya react instantly, passing the ball horizontally in Karasu's direction.
"Too naive," Adam Blake sneered, rushing over.
But the smile on Karasu's face bloomed. "I never said this ball was for me!"
Tendou's slick talk had not only harvested a wave of popularity but had also reignited his teammates' fighting spirit. At this moment, Karasu's mind was crystal clear. He had predicted Blake's move. And so, facing the incoming low-driven ball, he opened his legs and let it go through.
The Premier League's top scorer's expression turned ugly. He had actually been fooled by this kid!
Not far away, Tendou, Loki, and Dada Silva all charged towards the ball's landing spot at the same time. The situation was still not optimistic. His opponents, like two door gods, were constantly using their bodies to squeeze Tendou. The data displayed by his Big Data Statistics was pitifully low.
"This can't go on."
Tendou, in a one-on-three, was still not at a disadvantage. But from another perspective, he hadn't gained any advantage either. Facing Loki, who had also entered the realm of Flow, he could at most just bully him a little with his body.
"There's only one way."
As Tendou was running, he had already arrived in front of the gate of the Zone. Almost at the same time, Loki felt a chill come over him, the source being Tendou. He didn't understand what had happened to Tendou, but he had a vague premonition that something was not right.
And at this moment, Tendou had already appeared in front of the gate of the Zone. Without any hindrance, the ancient, simple gate of the Zone, upon his arrival, opened for him with joy, as if welcoming its master.
BOOM!
After an unknown amount of time, the gate of the Zone opened for Tendou once again. Tendou stepped in.
In that instant, the cells in his body seemed to come alive. All of his body's potential was stimulated, breaking through the limits.
BZZT!
Silvery-white electrical energy suddenly erupted from the corners of his eyes, more dazzling than the flames of Flow, impossible to conceal.
"Pīlì Yīshǎn! (Thunder Breathing, First Form!)"
BZZT~
Tendou, wreathed in lightning, charged out in one breath. His speed had actually increased by another notch.
"What?!"
All the members of the World All-Star Team were shocked.
"He can accelerate a second time?"
"Could it be that this little brat wasn't using his full strength before?"
"Impossible! He had clearly already entered FLOW!"
Dada Silva was confused. Why, at this stage, could that player still get stronger? All he knew was that he was being left behind in this race. The figures of Tendou and Loki were gradually passing him, and the distance was widening.
At this moment, Tendou's speed was on par with Loki's.
The two of them arrived in front of the ball almost at the same time. Tendou immediately used his shoulder to push Loki aside and take the ball, continuing to accelerate towards the opponent's penalty area.
In the control room, Anri's eyes widened. She watched excitedly as Tendou shook off the Brazilian wolf with his speed and then knocked aside the French prodigy with his body. He had defeated Loki in this contest of talent.
But at this moment, Tendou's mind was truly empty of all other thoughts. His eyes only saw the football and the goal.
Tendou continued to dribble towards the penalty area. Now, the choice was in Luna's hands. They symbolically had to send someone to cover again. But this was not an easy choice, because the other members of Tendou's team had also pushed up. Chigiri and Otoya were simultaneously threatening their goal from the left and right sides.
Luna had very little time to think because Tendou's speed was too fast. He subconsciously chose to go forward to help defend, and immediately went in for a slide tackle.
Tendou calmly cut the ball. The existence of his Six Eyes always allowed him to anticipate the enemy's move.
After cutting past Luna, Tendou's eyes were still fixed on the goal, giving the illusion that he was about to shoot. Little did they know, Tendou's eyes had no blind spots.
Immediately, a scene that would dazzle the entire field appeared. He suddenly swung his right leg, and the ball was kicked from the center to the right side of the penalty area, accurately landing in front of Otoya.
This pass, as if he had turned on God's-eye view, directly tore open the opponent's defensive line. Even Cavasoz couldn't see Tendou's pass. This pass was too secretive, and the difficulty was also extremely high. It couldn't help but remind him of the pride of their Argentina, Lionel Messi.
Otoya appeared in front of the ball out of nowhere. Now, there was only a goalkeeper in front of him, but Cavasoz was quickly closing in. Without the slightest hesitation, the moment he reached the ball's landing spot, he once again pushed it back to the center.
After doing all this, he immediately looked over.
Tendou and Loki had thrown their bodies out almost at the same time, both going for a sliding shot/tackle!
