Summary[]
Team X's training field
At Team X's training room, Isagi meets with Baro. Isagi asks Baro to help him become more like him, a striker who can score a lot of goals. Baro laughs at Isagi, telling Isagi that he is not skilled enough. Isagi then says to Baro that he is the greatest player he has met here in Blue Lock. Isagi adds that, like Baro, he wants to be someone who can survive in Blue Lock with his talents alone. Baro consents to Isagi's, agreeing only to show their difference in skills. Isagi is shocked by the sudden one on one match with Baro. Caught unprepared, Isagi is unable to move and is glued on the floor. Isagi tries to find the right timing to counter Baro. However, without changing his location, Baro kicks the ball and scores a goal. Isagi is shocked by Baro's long shooting range and accuracy. Baro gets bored of Isagi and tells him to leave. Isagi then asks Baro for one more try, telling him to keep going. Baro finds Isagi's pertinacity annoying and insulting. Resuming their one on one match, Baro says that he is the one true king. Finding Isagi's constant remarks annoying, Baro decides to show Isagi how great he is at football.
Believing that he understood Baro's shooting range, Isagi guessed that he got Baro trapped. Baro then tells Isagi that he is mistaken. Contrasting Isagi's hypothesis, Baro's shooting range is 27 meters, not 23 meters. Hearing that, Isagi asks if Baro is a freak. Isagi wonders if he were to polish his skills and weapons, would he be able to play like Baro someday. Their match ended with Baro telling him that he is the one true king.
Team Z's room
Back at Team Z's room, Isagi tries to understand the methodology behind Baro's formula in scoring a goal. With this in mind, Isagi wonders how he can use his own strengths and weapons to create his unique formula. Unable to find the answer, Isagi ignores the formula and says that he'll figure it out during their next game.
Isagi then notices that his hand is shaking. Isagi remembers that if they lose to the undefeated Team V, his football dreams will come to a close. Isagi cries, fearing the end of his football career. Igaguri, nervous like Isagi, asks him for reassurance. Igaguri tells Isagi that he's so afraid of their next match that he can't go to sleep. Igaguri then shares to Isagi that if he fails in Blue Lock, he will have to inherit his temple duties. Igaguri fears the day when his football dreams will come to a conclusion. Isagi, seeing the shaking Igaguri, tries to calm him down. Isagi tells Igaguri that being afraid of losing can make them stronger. Calming a bit, Igaguri declares to Isagi that Team Z will win no matter what.
