"Good Work, Diamond's in the roug-"
"Hey, why did you hit me!?"
As soon as Ego appeared and was about to start giving his speech was interrupted by Kira who walked towards Isagi, He could still feel the tinge of pain in his stomach because of Isagi's shot
Isagi was staring at Ego but after hearing Kira glanced at him who was approaching him
"What? I hit you because of your confusion"
Isagi said with a smile, Not reacting to the anger Kira was throwing at him
"Stop complaining for your lack of stre-"
"By Putting my career in danger? I can justify my actions of ending someone's career but you chose to become 'IT' and target me"
Ego was about to start taking control of the conversation yet was again interrupted by Kira, He was looking a little grim
"Hey, Listen now, Everybody was ready to fight for their career and accept the current situation except you who couldn't make that decision, Don't forget that I already told you to show me your Desperation of playing for Japan, Which you did and improved yourself"
Isagi didn't focus on the fact that the way Kira was ignoring Ego and explained to Kira
"How did I improve, I just did what I could already to save my career"
Kira was convinced to some point but kept pressing as he had many questions, This time Ego was again about to start but saw that Kira was about to speak again and chose to wait for a few seconds
Because if they interrupt him again, He is going to give them a shock treatment
"Oh, You already could? So why did you get stopped by my team's defense in the last match, Why didn't you use these Fake Shot you performed just now back then as well, You didn't because you couldn't, You didn't have that desperation because you knew that you were already selected for the Youth Team of Japan, You already thought of yourself as the future of Japan, Now because of being in the corner you improved that's all"
Isagi said and looked at Ego after he finished speaking As if begging to start speaking and end Kira's whining
"Now Kuon, Get Ou-, Did he leave?"
"Yes"
"Well that saves some time for me since this couple wasted quite a bit of that"
Ego said while staring at Isagi and Kira
"Well what Isagi Yoichi said is correct, What you need to survive in Blue Lock is Ego"
"We need you?"
Iemon asked as it came to his mind right after hearing Ego's words
"Were you not present during the introduction I did at the Football Union, You Fossil"
Ego shot back while also correcting the confusion
"Well, Congratulations you've passed the Blue Lock Entrance Test, There are 11 of you in each room who will be teaming up sometimes while sometimes playing against each other, So shine harder to survive this program"
Ego disappeared after concluding his speech and the speaker started informing them about their schedule in Blue Lock
Isagi noticed how the speech of Ego was shortened compared to Manga because of him and Kira but it was worth it since Kira has survived and he needs to be clear about this or he might just get himself kicked out in the 2nd Selection
According to the schedule, They are supposed to do Stamina Tests
Which was followed by everyone and went to the Training Room, Isagi wanted to push his body to get that perfect physique, and now was the opportunity to do that
Kira followed him and got next to him, Glancing at him from time to time
"If you want to say something just say it, Others might think that you're interested in me"
Isagi said with a smile as he entered the training room
"Wow, It organized well for training"
Isagi noticed how there were many equipment present which he mostly saw in the Club and Gyms with good money
"So what do think of Blue Lock?"
Isagi got to the treadmill and asked Kira while setting it up for a slow start
"Um-m, I'm sorry for lashing out at you and I think I got what you wanted me to realize"
Isagi was momentarily shocked to hear that Because it was him who needed to apologize not the other way around, Kira had no reason to apologize which made Isagi doubt if he was really this kind and wasn't putting a fake persona
"I mean, You did put me on the spot but you were right, You did that for me and I'm grateful for that"
Kira said with a smile and got onto the treadmill next to Isagi
"You're Welcome?, To be honest, I didn't expect you to realize my intentions this quickly and to understand my method for that either"
Isagi said as he was genuinely surprised by Kira's maturity of this situation
They didn't say another word and got to training
Isagi kept increasing the speed right after getting used to the previous one, He could feel fatigue piling up but could also feel it reducing, Kira and Raichi who got on the treadmill next to Isagi also followed his speed for a while
Kira kept pushing but reached his limit and got off the treadmill while Raichi wanted to compete with Isagi and kept going, The only difference was that Isagi was at a speed of 14 MPH while Raichi was at 11 MPH
They both kept at it and in the end, Raichi stopped as he couldn't hold out, Kira's endurance time was 57 Min. 04 Sec. and Raichi's was 1 Hr. 08 Min. 48 Sec.
Isagi after feeling a lot of soreness in his legs stopped and sat on the ground, Everybody saw what was going on and felt envious of Isagi's Stamina, His time was 1 Hr. 59 Min. 34 Sec.
His endurance impressed everybody on Team Z
