[Condition to steal the SS grade technical dribbler : dribble the football superstar Ronaldinho ]

[Condition to obtain the master of trivela: beat Ronaldinho in a 1v1]

"Why do I have to play with and against Ronaldinho to copy A grade talents, this terms seemed more difficult even though they are just A grade talents" Makinde said

[Responding to the host these talents are more important in football than the S grade flashy talents, the system increase the difficulties of acquiring talent based on how important they and although their rank play a major role in determining the conditions they are not as important as this basic but growth based talent. Meaning they can be improved through training ]

Makinde nodded his head at the systems explanation these abilities, thoughts swirling in his mind on how he could take advantage of it.

When Makinde came back to his senses Ronaldinho was already walking back towards the football training center where he had just had his evaluation and he immediately panicked internally wondering what he could do to get his hands on at least one of the talent.

"Mr Ronaldinho sir... " Makinde called out making Ronaldinho turn back towards him wondering what the boy wanted

"Could you show me a couple of skills and maybe I could play against you 1v1" Makinde asked as his heart pounded away with nervousness as if they wanted to burst out of his chest

"I don't know" He said with a thoughtful look "the sponsors would really want me at the interview but hey why not I guess I could spare thirty minutes" He said with a teasing smile as he lead Makinde towards the unused training ground.

"So for the first game you have thirty minutes to score against me and if you can I will personally train with you for a week after the Camp program" Ronaldinho said with a confident smirk on his face as if he knew something Makinde did not , Makinde couldn't help but grin inwardly although Ronaldinho might be a pro he still just a forward so He was sure he would be able to score against him.

But how wrong he was because no matter how skillful he tried to be with the ball to dribble Ronaldinho would end his attack before it could even fully begin shutting down the entire offence. He decide to use his Trump card against Ronaldinho which was his power shot and after managing to position himself at a perfect angle and range for the skill to work he immediately smashed the ball forward.

The ball sailed forward just a few inches out of reach of Ronaldinho and smashed into the back of the net with a satisfying 'whump' sound, Makinde immediately ran and celebrated with the iconic gesture of the black Panther his favorite movie before his transmigration.

"Well that was definitely impressive from a ten year old amd I never knew you could shoot like that " Ronaldinho said

"Well there is a lot you don't know about me but you do remember your promise right " Makinde asked his anticipation evident in his voice

"We I guess a deal is a deal then" Ronaldinho said

"We still have about ten more minutes left " He continued

"Why not dribbling, we could practice dribbling for a little bit you could help me you know improve my dribbling" Makinde was internally laughing right now, of course he wanted to get Ronaldinho's talent of technical dribbler, he was one of the best dribblers to have ever played the game.

"Ok I see why not " Ronaldinho replied with a smile as he began to show Makinde basic dribbling skills and how to make even the simplest flick of the ball look like art but with Makinde's lack of talent he couldn't really grasp what Ronaldinho was teaching and even though he tried to dribble Ronaldinho he just couldn't get past the man, he was like an absolute tank the thought of not being able to even dribble a forward dealt a hit to Makinde's adult mentality

Suddenly a brilliant idea popped up in his mind, the system said he had to dribble past Ronaldinho what if he made Ronaldinho go easy on him and he managed to dribble him

"Can you let me dribble past you, you know to get to feel the ball and what it feels like to dribble it could improve my skills " Makinde asked with a flicker of hope in his eyes, because this was his only chance to meet the condition to steal the talent technical dribbling and this request gained him weird look from Ronaldinho but the latter agreed with a smile.

Makinde got ready with the ball this time full of determination. Although he wasn't sure he would be able to dribble one of the greatest dribblers of all time but he decided to give it his all. Makinde sprinted forward approaching Ronaldinho. He kicked ball right with the outside of his foot , shifting his center of gravity to lean to the right and with the same surgical precision Makinde kicked the ball back to the left with the inside of his right foot maintaining swift control and he immediately changed his direction as the ball went in between Ronaldinho's leg.

Ronaldinho who clearly wasn't expecting Makinde to perform an elastico, his iconic move was very surprised while Makinde couldn't contain his joy as the sound of the system resounded in his mind.
