Chapter 506: Do you want to y?


    ?


    Excitedly, Hiro swept his gaze.


    Street football, although a popr sport worldwide was different here in Brazil. Here the people worshipped football as a religion.


    Be it, children or adults, everyone liked ying football.


    Even now, Hiro could see people of varying age groups ying together.


    Hiro had always wanted to experience Brazilian street football. Though he couldn''t experience it in his previous life, now he can experience it.


    It was at such ce that many legends were born.


    "Damn! What''s with that kid? He doesn''t look older than 15 but look at him go."


    "What the heck is with that uncle? How can he pull such wless moves despite being out of shape?"


    Most of Hiro''s teammates were stunned by the performance of the yers on the field. Those wless shy dribbles and passes had captivated their heart.


    Watching the excitement on Hiro''s face Carlos couldn''t help but ask, "I''m sure you hadn''te all the way here to watch. So, what do you say about a match?"


    Exactly, he hadn''te all the way here to watch the match from the sidelines.


    Hiro hade here to experience the game firsthand.


    But their coach had forbidden them to take part in any physical activities outside the training until their scheduled match. It was a precautionary measure to prevent unwanted injuries.


    So, although Hiro desperately wanted to y, he couldn''t bring himself to speak about it.


    "A single game wouldn''t hurt," Naoto said as he noticed the frown on Hiro''s face. He could tell just from a nce that Hiro wanted to y. But because of their coach''smand, he couldn''t bring himself to go against his true feelings.


    Hearing him, Hiro rolled his eyes to look at him.


    His eyes glistened with a deep feeling of gratitude. Hiro was touched but before he could bring himself to speak, Naoto gave him an understanding nod.


    Usually, he wasn''t the type of person who''d go against themand of the coach. Rather, he had an obedient personality.


    Thus upon hearing such disobedient wordsing out of his mouth, Tatsuki couldn''t help but stare at him with his eyes opened wide in disbelief.


    What happened to rules over personal interest?


    "What?" Naoto asked as he caught him staring at him.


    "Why such a change of heart?" He blurted in response as he asked dazedly.


    "If you don''t want to y then you can sit out," Naoto responded dismissively as he tried to shift the topic of their conversation.


    He didn''t want to rify his reasons.


    Knowing him, he should have figured it out. But he was just too stupid to figure it out by himself. And Naoto didn''t want to rify either.


    "What about you all?" Naoto turned to ask others.


    Even if they wanted to sit out, he wasn''t going to force them to y. So, it was all up to them to decide whether they wanted to participate or not.


    Apart from Kaoru who seemed a bit reluctant, others readily agreed to participate. But since he was already here, he agreed as well.


    "Then it''s decided."


    After confirming their participation, Naoto turned to look in Carlos''s direction, "We five will join the match," Naoto announced.


    "Five! Why are you excluding me?" Tatsuki growled.


    "I thought that you were going to sit out"


    Naoto responded calmly without a shred of guilt in his voice. It seemed as if he was truly excluding him from the team.


    This further infuriated Tatsuki. Thus he began toin even more vigorously, "Why should I sit out? When did I say that I was going to sit out?"


    Yet still amidst his rampant, Naoto maintained his cool.


    Although Carlos found their situation quite amusing, he couldn''t help but feel slightly awkward.


    A lot of people were looking their way, giving them strange nces. It was as if a show was taking ce here.


    So, Carlos couldn''t help but feel a bit awkward being at the center of attention.


    "Even so, one of you still needs to sit out. After all, it''s a 5v5 game," Carlos said in an attempt to control the situation.


    "Then it''s decided, he''ll sit out," Naoto presented his verdict with a solemn expression on his face as he pointed at Tatsuki.


    "Huh? Why me? Why don''t you sit out instead?"


    At this point, it seemed as if Naoto was intentionally teasing Tatsuki.


    Seeing him so riled up, Hiro and the rest couldn''t help but chuckle. Even if they were causing a scene, Hiro was finding the situation quite amusing.


    But if it went on any longer who knows if it wouldn''t escte any further. Also who knows if they wouldn''t get kicked out for causing a fuss?


    So to prevent such a scenario from happening, some of them volunteered to sit out.


    "Then, I''ll sit out for now"


    At once two people volunteered to sit out. One was Sugawara while the other was Kaoru.


    Coincidentally both said it at the same time.


    So they couldn''t help but exchange nces.


    "You can y Sugawara-san, I''ll sit out," Kaoru said as he tried to persuade him to change his


    decision.


    "No, it''s alright. You can y, Kaoru-san"


    Both were trying to be courteous to each other. So for a while, neither of them could conclude.


    Each was willing to sit out for the sake of the other.


    "Ah..., What are they talking about?" Carlos was confused by their exchange.


    Although he could somewhat tell what was taking ce between the two, he couldn''t


    understand the two. So, he had to turn to Hiro for help.


    "Ah..., They''re fighting over who gets to participate. Each of them wants to sit out for the sake


    of the other." Hiro exined.


    "Then can you tell that both of them can participate? After all, a single substitution is


    allowed." Carlos said.


    "Guys...," Hiro intervened. "All of us can y. We can substitute for each other."


    As they heard him both felt quite embarrassed. In an attempt to be courteous, they hadpletely ruled out the possibility of substitution.


    Then as the confusion cleared, Carlos walked inside the pitch.
