Takeshi inhaled deeply before introducing himself in a loud voice that immediately sent a wave around the crowd: "Nice to meet you, everyone! I'm Takeshi Ono. I'm currently 20 years old and I'm a midfielder. Please take care of me."
Ono's voice reverberated all over the field.
Just after he finished, a pin-drop silence engulfed the field. Ono hesitantly looked in front only to be met with the sight of people staring at him weirdly.
Upon seeing those frozen expressions, he couldn't help but panic.
'Did I sound too forceful? Did I sound too enthusiastic?' He thought.
Although he was panicking inside, he maintained a calm demeanor. But the silence around him made him even more anxious.
Even Ito was staring at him with a rather amusing smile. The expression on Ito's face made it seem as if he found the introduction of Ono rather interesting.
Finally, after a brief silence, life returned on the field.
