Chapter 163: Kira (163)
Nishioka passed the ball to Bachira after getting past Karasu although it was hard…it was extremely hard.
Karasu's defending style made it extremely hard for Nishioka to find a place to squeeze himself out of.
Karasu's relentless defending style had created a virtual wall of resistance, making it exceptionally challenging for Nishioka to find any opening. He strained every sinew, deploying his vast repertoire of skills and clever tricks, but even then, it was a struggle to gain even an inch of ground.
Nishioka fought tooth and nail to elude Karasu's relentless defense. Despite employing a repertoire of clever tricks and displaying incredible skill, the challenge of getting past Karasu had been an immense one. Nishioka had pushed himself to the limits, and with sheer perseverance, he narrowly managed to gain some precious distance from the tenacious defender.
With Karasu temporarily left in his wake, Nishioka seized the opportunity.
After getting some distance between him and Karasu, Nishioka passed the ball to Bachira, who had intelligently positioned himself to receive the pass.
"Nice pass, Nishioka~chan" Bachira said as he trapped the ball with the back of his foot.
He was letting his imagination flow as time went on.
He had learned from Nakada that although his dribbling style was for sure decent and creative…it had one fatal weakness.
"Your style may get past some players if you play against them for the first time, but that's about it," Nakada said bluntly, his gaze unwavering as he assessed Bachira's abilities. He wasn't one to sugarcoat his observations.
Bachira, intrigued yet puzzled by Nakada's straightforward comment, couldn't help but inquire, "And what is that?"
Nakada leaned in, his voice tinged with a mix of mentorship and just the blunt feeling of not letting Bachira waste his talent. "You follow a specific route every time you dribble," he explained.
"You have incredible creativity and skill, but it's like you're playing out a script. You limit your imagination by sticking to the same moves and patterns. Once someone studies your style and figures out that pattern, they can exploit it and anticipate your next move."
"Long story short, even though your dribbling may be creative..the path you follow after each dribble however is very easy to predict"Nakada said quite bluntly.
"I never noticed that, I guess nothing really escape your sight"Bachira said scratching the back of his head to which Nakada just shrugged saying.
"Didn't want to have another person dragging me down"
"I won't, I might catch up to you," Bachira said smiling a bit.
"In your dream" Nakada said walking away.
Bachira smiled upon watching the number 10 on his back walking away.
With the ball at his feet, he began to dribble past the oncoming defender. It proved to be more challenging than he initially anticipated; in fact, it was far more difficult than he could have imagined.
However Bachira wasn't one to back down from a challenge matter of fact,a challenge excited him to no end.
He ran toward the player that was coming toward him with all his might.
This would be the guy he test his skill on.
Bachira's dribbling display was a mesmerizing dance with the ball at his feet. As he approached the defender, he unleashed a flourish of creativity.
With a deft touch, he flicked the ball lightly over the defender's outstretched leg, leaving the opponent flustered and grasping at thin air.
The viewers gasped in amazement at the unexpected and artistic move, as Bachira effortlessly glided past the bewildered defender. It was a moment of pure magic on the field.
The second player who closed in on Bachira was no pushover. This player had distinctive white hair that contrasted strikingly with their piercing yellow eyes.
A noticeable birthmark adorned their face, situated just under the eyes, which added to the air of mystery surrounding them.
It was none other than Kira.
"Oh..it's you Kira-kun"Bachira said upon noticing who it was.
Kira seem focused as his eyes seem to have the same distinctive marking that Bachira was oh so familiar with.
"I will be taking that"Kira said as he stole the ball from Bachira with lightning fast speed.
Bachira looked confused at that display of skill.
He hadn't expected Kira to be so fast.
Kira wasn't usually a fast player..however Bachira a managed to remove himself from his thought and started to rush toward Kira aiming to take the ball back.
Kira however was faster,his training with Loki had helped level up all of spec into another level,he however did not gain as much of a gain as Rin….
He didn't gain as much as Shido but…to be fair he gained nothing…apart from speed and maybe a better vision.
Kira eyes scanned in a second before passing the ball toward the open Tokimitsu who had moved up on the field.
