4. Team Z’s Conflict

Team Z experienced internal conflict when Igaguri blamed Lemon for being an incompetent goalkeeper. Koun tried to calm the situation by reminding them that they had only conceded one goal. Isagi urged Team Z to stick to their designated positions, but Raichi disagreed and told Isagi to play as a defender instead of a striker. Some Team Z players competed to make the whole team serve them by providing passes.

Anri stopped the commotion and instructed Team Z to resume the game. Isagi passed the ball to Bachira, but Igaguri intercepted the ball meant for Bachira. Igaguri took the ball on his own, attempting to score against Team X, but the Tim X players easily dispossessed him. Koun then reprimanded Naruhaya and Raichi for abandoning their defense to join the attack, but they ignored his words.

Team X capitalized on Team Z’s disarray. The Tim X players prioritized winning as a team and passed the ball to Barou. Six Team Z players attempted to stop Barou by surrounding him, but Barou delivered a backheel pass to Hamdan behind him. Hamdan then passed the ball to Udin, who was running unguarded, and Udin successfully scored a goal against Team Z, making the score 2-0 in favor of Team X.

While the players of Team Z continued to fight individually to gain possession and claim the top scorer title, Team X miraculously transformed into a harmonious team. The players of Team X willingly served their king—the one and only King Barou. As a result, Team X completely outclassed Team Z, ending the match with a decisive score of 5-0.

5. Isagi Yoichi and Bachira Meguru’s Brilliant Cooperation Leads Team Z to Score

In the final moments of the match, Bachira and Isagi teamed up to secure Team Z’s only goal. Bachira believed that Team X’s defense would loosen due to their 5-0 lead. Even though Bachira was tightly marked by three Team X players in the midfield, he managed to send a long pass that landed perfectly at Isagi’s feet just outside Team X’s penalty box.

However, just as Isagi prepared to shoot the ball toward the Tim X goalkeeper, Barou suddenly appeared like a demon in front of him, confronting him with an intimidating stance. This forced Isagi to reconsider taking the shot. At the same time, Kunigami, who was being closely marked by a Tim X player, called for a pass, while Raichi, who was free near Isagi, enthusiastically requested the ball as well.

Although Isagi was tempted to challenge Barou standing firmly in front of him and score the goal himself, he had an instinctive feeling that an incredible goal would come from Kunigami’s foot. Trusting his intuition, Isagi passed the ball to Kunigami.

The Team X players doubted Kunigami’s ability to score from outside the penalty box, but to their surprise, long-range shots were Kunigami’s specialty. With a spectacular strike, Kunigami successfully sent the ball into Team X’s goal.

The match between Team X and Team Z ended with a remarkable final score of 5-1, declaring Team X as the dominant victors.

6. Raichi Yells at Isagi Yoichi

Afterward, Raichi became furious and grabbed Isagi by the collar, angry that Isagi chose to pass the ball to Kunigami. According to Raichi, his position was closer and better than Kunigami’s, who was being marked by the opposing center-back.

Isagi candidly admitted that he was confused by his own decision—his body seemed to move on its own to pass the ball to Kunigami, even though he had intended to take the shot himself. Raichi’s anger flared even more because he found Isagi’s “stupid” answer absurd. How could someone who claimed they wanted to shoot the ball end up making a pass instead?

Koun stepped in to break up the fight between Raichi and Isagi. However, Raichi lashed out at Koun, reminding him that, according to Blue Lock’s rules, only the top scorer would survive until the end. Raichi was frustrated that Isagi chose to pass the ball when he had a chance to score a goal. Raichi then questioned why Isagi even came to Blue Lock in the first place.
