7. Chigiri Hyoma’s Solo Run

Chigiri performed a solo run with incredible speed, leaving both opponents and teammates in awe. Even the Wanima brothers, his former high school teammates, were shocked to see Chigiri’s comeback, showcasing his remarkable sprinting ability that was once thought to be lost. When the Wanima brothers tried to block him, Chigiri sent a long pass toward the goal and chased after his own pass.

Effortlessly, Chigiri leaped over Junichi’s dirty tackle and faced Keisuke, who tried to stop him by blocking his path. However, Chigiri accelerated even more, causing Keisuke to stumble. With his extraordinary speed, Chigiri outran the goalkeeper, who was rushing to intercept the ball in front of the net. Chigiri then jumped to strike his own pass and outmaneuvered the keeper.

In a brilliant display of skill, Chigiri successfully scored the fourth goal for Team Z. The match between Team Z and Team W ended in a dramatic 4-4 draw.

8. Chigiri Hyoma Thanks Isagi Yoichi

Isagi approached Chigiri, expressing how impressed he was with Chigiri’s incredible speed. Chigiri replied that it was all thanks to Isagi, who reignited his passion for soccer, making his body move on its own to run again. He sincerely thanked Isagi.

Chigiri realized that the undefeated version of himself from before the injury no longer existed. However, he now wanted to dream again of becoming the best in the world. Even though he knew the risk of reinjury could end his soccer career, Chigiri was determined to keep running until his legs gave out and his passion burned out completely.

All the players of Team Z gathered around Chigiri, praising his extraordinary “weapon.” They celebrated the crucial goal Chigiri had scored, which saved Team Z from elimination in the first Blue Lock selection. Kunigami pointed out that the draw was incredibly significant for Team Z as it kept their hope alive to advance to the second selection round. However, Raichi firmly stated that he would never forgive Kuon for his betrayal.

9. Team W Gangs Up on Kuon Wataru

This incident enraged Team W, who vented their anger by ganging up on Kuon. They felt betrayed because Kuon didn’t inform them that Chigiri, the Team Z player previously known for his leg injury, was actually capable of running at incredible speed.

While shielding his head from Team W’s kicks, Kuon tried to explain that he genuinely didn’t know about Chigiri’s running ability.

Isagi tried to intervene, stopping Keisuke from stomping on Kuon, but Junichi grabbed Isagi’s collar angrily. Seeing this, Kunigami immediately gripped Junichi’s arm, making him wince in pain, and ordered him to release Isagi. After the situation became heated, Kuon took the chance to escape to save himself.
