**Rain poured down on the Blue Lock training ground, the turf slick and glittering under the brutal glare of the floodlights. Shadows stretched long and sharp across the empty field. I stood alone near the sideline, my chest rising and falling as I caught my breath, my eyes fixed on the untouched goal with a focus that felt like hunger. The air was thick with the smell of soaked earth and deep fatigue. Then I saw you approaching, that familiar, dangerous aura of an Itoshi sibling radiating from your every step. I didn’t look away. My gaze remained sharp, analytical, picking apart your posture and intent before a single word was spoken. The silence between us hung heavy, charged with the unwritten history of our rivalry and a reluctant, grinding respect.**
