Chapter 3: Training in Rusia
"Russia is huge…" Asuto said as he was looking out from the place as they were in the bus right now
"I've got to give this to my gandma." Hiura seems to be excited taking pictures while Kazemaru, Hikaru and Goenji reminiscing on what happen as it was too good to be true
"Privyet Everyone!" Scoglio said to them
"Privyet means hello in Russia." Natsumi sighed
"Spasiba natsumi-san." Scoglio winked at her
"From here on out I, Scoglio will be your guide." He said
"Hmm.." Asuto gets his small pack book
"What are you doing here to study?" Haizaki mock asuto a bit
"This is just a precaution 3.. 2… 1…" Asuto smiled
"Yes! Whatever you want to know about Russia you can know through me." Scoglio said happily
"Let's have a good time together, Flame Japan
"If we were flambe we'll be cooked." Tsukushi titled her head
"Ahaha but at least he tried…" Asuto didn't correct Scoglio
"And today ladies and gentlemen we are gonna tour Kazan." Scoglio said
"Where are you taking us?" Yuuichiro asked
"Not far from here that would be Kazan Kremlin right?" Asuto asked
Scoglio sheepishly looking at his phone and Asuto is right
"Just what book are you reading?" Goujin asked
"Dum Dum Guides tour on Russia here says that if your guide is unreliable look the building and match the picture then a nearby set will be there for you." Asuto said as he pointed the building near them
"You bring a book guide just for this?" Hiura is amazed
"Well I got it just in case." Asuto said
Flashback
"Heh I also need a guide what for?" Asuto asked
"You don't want to go to a foreign country without a guide especially to someone's territory sometimes you've got to be prepared for anything maybe a guide that taste bad might come in." The boy said
"Ahaha I think that would—" Asuto said but was halted
"I'm saying this seriously to you Inamori Asuto you don't want to be lost on Russia." The boy sighed
"Heh?" Asuto asked
"Got it. I better go before everyone or my flight notice." He said
"Get to Russia then I'll be waiting I'm also on a flight there." The boy said as both of them hung up
"So what place are we going to?" Tsukushi asked
"You don't need info to that Kazan or Kazan Kremlin well in short is a beautiful monument on tartar and fun fact it's 820 km from Moscow." Asuto said
"You've taken the explanation out from me." Scoglio sighed
"It's because you took the search too long." Hiroto sighed
"Yeah it's in tour guide." Anna said
"As annoying as Asuto today he was really a bit helpful." Haizaki said
"I don't know if that's a compliment or sarcastic." Asuto sweatdropped
"It's like we're really in Russia, right?" Iwato said
"Most importantly we need this." Goujin is using his winter coat
When they arrived Asuto just sighed as he opens a bit of his jacket
"It's quite warm in here." Sakanoue said
"Right are you okay in those Goujin senior?" Tatsuya asked
"This city was supposed to be the most pleasant especially during July and august." Anna said
"He should have read the pamphlet." Natsumi said as she walks off
"Eh that guy…" Goujin saw Scoglio storming off without his jacket
"Hot!" He shouted
"Woah this place is big." Sakanoue said
"Where is he?" Larkee asked
Meanwhile Hikaru is chilling himself with the scenery as he got a call
"who is this?" Hikaru answered the call
"It has been a while Hikaru…" Froy said
"Froy?" Hikaru then looked in front of him and in the flesh, it was froy.
"I was concerned so I did a bit of digging." Froy smiled as they sit together
"So, you're not mitsuru but hikaru and you defied orion I could care less it wouldn't change a thing ." He sighed
"Froy but you are part of Orion Fouundation." Hikaru commented
"A lot has happened to me I'll tell you another time." Froy smiled back at him
"Say Kazan!" Coglio said
The four said it was Goujin, Asuto, Zhao and Larkee posing in one of the mosque or some sort.
"Would it be correct to say kazani instead of cheese?" Goujin asked
"No in the guide you should have change it to Syr." Tsukushi said
"He is such a fake tour guide." Fudou commented
"Thanks for waiting!" Nohsaka said as he handed out a lot of food while Nishikage just sighed and then they discuss on a counter measure while imagining it using the foods that are Ocpocmaq, Gobadia, Olesh, Qistibi, Balesh all of them are different foods Nishikage looks out for a reason but Nohsaka just wanted to try out the foods
Back with Asuto as he got a call
"Coach could I go for a while I'll be sure to be back in the bus before dinner." Asuto said
"Fine but don't be late hohoho ."Zhao said
"Thank you so much." Asuto then answer the call
"So how was Russia?" The boy asked
"It's fine I guess…" Asuto smiled
"Could you meet me at the store near your left." The boy said as it seem that the boy is wearing a hood and waiting
"Why are you here anyone could see us." Asuto sighed as they talk in a low voice
"This is the data for spain's team read it properly." The boy smiled as he slips something to Asuto
"You're giving me the data on them in daylight?' He asked
"Well it's fine I'll be watching your matches if you need anything just tell well bye bye." The boy smiled as he quickly go
Asuto quickly hides the data in his jacket
Dinner time comes
"You've all been working hard and it seems that there is gonna be hard times along the way but today let's eat.: Zhao said
"This is great!" Asuto said
" We meet again." Clario said
"Oh it's spain." Endou said
"First we meet at the Airport and now here this must be fate." Zhao commented
"Big Brother."
"Melanie…"
Another girl that looks a bit like scoglio they must be siblings or something by the look if it as the girl/woman seems to be a tour guide of spain
"Dad this isn't fated they just want some commission out of this." Lakee caught on to what happen as the two siblings didn't agree
"All of you have small stomach if you're gonna eat like that." Luter the one with orange hair said mockingly
"What did you say?!" Hiroto looks challenged
"I'll have 3 more." He continued
"I'll have 5 more." Haizaki said
"Everyone eat up and Clario I challenge you to an eating contest!" Endou laughed and then challenge clario
"In that case Nishikage can put up a challenge." As if asking for help even so Nohsaka insist
"Coach could I get some breeze for a while nishikage-san, nohsaka-san it isn't good to have more food I feel bad for nishikage." Asuto said as he stands up from his table
"Hmm is that so? I haven't thought of it that way then coach if you would please." Nohasaka said
"Just be back and finish the leftovers if there are any." The coach said
Outside the three just have a short and relaxing day
"Asuto why did you stop me?' Nohsaka asked
"Because not to be rude but your demands are sometimes high." Asuto smiled
"I can't thank you enough." Nishikage said
"You can't just say no so I had to improvise I can hear the scream of an upset stomach." Asuto said
"Asuto do you think we will win against spain?" Nohsaka asked
"Of course, we will…" Asuto smiled
"You are an interesting one." Nohsaka said
"Thank you… Do you guys want to go to the spain table?' Asuto asked
"Eh why?" Nishikage asked
"Nothing let's greet them." Asuto said
"That would not be a bad idea let's go." Nohsaka said
"But…" Nishikage said
The three of them went onto the spain table it's somekind of payback from before
"Buenos Noches Spain team I hope that is right." Asuto greeted the spain team as they were greeted in a bit of subtle manner
"So they are the inazuma japan player I see… what brings you here to our table?" Domelgo the one that is always bringing the rose said
"Just a greeting since your captain done one we would like to and this is nohsaka's idea." Asuto said
"My idea… Yeah…" Nohsaka said
"You're gonna do an intel on us right?" Fernando said seriously he was the one with a long black hair even though he is a boy
"Don't be like that Fernando be nice." Emilio sighed as he was still eating
"They are just being nice." Emerico said
"On the field we are like this but on the field." Fabio said
"We know." Nishikage said
"This is a waste of time." Reinaldo sighed as he wanted to leave and leave he did
"Nohsaka, Nishikage I think it's already time." Asuto said
"Yeah it's nice to meet all of you." Nohsaka said
"We too it is a nice experience at least my view is a bit change of all of you." Nishikage said
While Nishikage and Nohsaka left Asuto went a bit on digging as he saw Reinaldo talking to someone
"Yes I understood on the day on the match I'll do myself a favor and sabotage the match." From what it sounded Reinaldo is talking to an orion representative on the phone
"So one of them is an orion spy." Asuto said as he approach him
"I've got to go." Reinaldo said as he hung up
"Reinaldo-san we need to talk." Asuto said
"Why do we need to talk." He said
"Huh why would I want to talk to you?" Reinaldo asked
"I'm just warning you what you are doing is wrong." Asuto said
"What do you care? This is my team I have a lot of reason…" Reinaldo said
"It seems I can't convince you then excuse me." Asuto said as he leaves
"He has to be my first target huh." Reinaldo said
Asuto then goes back to the restaurant it seems that it was over already
"Asuto you miss a lot where were you?" Hiura asked
"Taking a break…" Asuto said
"So you went outside?" Nohsaka asked
"Yeah more or less I saw Reinaldo and we talk a bit that's all and I don't know the time." Asuto laugh a bit
Kazan Soccer Centre
"Ah that was a great meal at least I can have another serving." Asuto said
"Here is the lodging house for a delicious yakisoba pan." Scoglio said
"Tomorrow will be a hard day that is so good." Zhao said in serious but then a bit of awkward situation
"Two promising assistant will be joining us and this is one of them." Zhao said as a man appeared in front of them as he is wearing the trainer uniform he introduced himself as Sekiya Tomari.
"He is so elegant." Golem said
"Physical Trainer?" Mansaku said
"He will support all of you and based your training independently according to my knowledge of course." Zhao said
That night Asuto is reading on all the data he have as he borrows a laptop from one of Inazuma Japan's team back home
"Invincible Giants they evolve during every encounter this is gonna be hard." Asuto saw some files as he tries to keep as low sound as possible since the site has camera everywhere he was finally able to find a blind spot to view some of it but he is more interested in the orion side
"Him huh." He looked serious
That is the first time I went and look at team's info of course I didn't go that far.
The next day the training is somewhat harsh but doable
"This is pretty straight forward." Haizaki commented
"I'm just doing my best adjusting since all of you are lacking power than spain." Their trainer said as they had to do some running later on and next setup the individual training process where Nohsaka, Goujin and Asuto is given their stats
"This is accurate." Nohsaka complimented
The training montage go on as they do dribble catching and other stuff
Others were amazed by Sekira as he can do anything even plan their meal
"He isn't your normal data analyst expert he is kinda the multi talent person." Zhao explained
"Oh yeah Shirou your next match is your last." Sekira said
"Yeah I got it." Fubuki sighed
Endou meanwhile is ordering a matryoshka but Scoglio produce it instead for his training while Goenji asked Asuto, Nohsaka and Haizaki on a talk
"I want the three of you to work on something beside Sekiya-san training." Goenji said
"What is it?" Haizaki asked
"Until my leg is better for the team I want all of you to inherit my last resort." Goenji said
"Last resort is my answer to soccer. You apply wind pressure that cause it to bound in different direction as it shot." He continued explaining
"You want us to inherit it?" Asuto asked
"Last resort is a technique that puts it in a position where you need two-footed player it would take at least a year for normal player to change their dominant foot." Nohsaka explained
"That is impossible." Haizaki said
"That is why I call three of you." Goenji said
"When a wall can't be broken by one then maybe three is the answer." Nohsaka looked confident
They then tried last resort but fails at it as the montage is taken and from the look of it Hikaru thinks it is missing something as they are in the middle of it Fubuki Atsuya appeared with his shot Decapacite Killer bear attack and break through it as the coach introduce it to them
Sekiya then inform them after Atsuya's introduction that someone is breaking through their network and of course that someone is a traitor that nohsaka thinks about it that was a possibility
That night Asuto is walking through the night outside of camp for a stroll walk it has been a while!" Someone kicks a ball at him a bot hard but he holds it
"What are you doing here?" Asuto asked
"Should you be on sleep?" The boy asked
"Why did you stroll here?" Asuto asked
"The same as you… Asuto-kun." The boy smiled
"They started to focus on a traitor." Asuto said
"Just act natural. So did you talk to Spain'straitor?" The boy asked
"Yeah." Asuto said
"Be careful Asuto maybe the traitor is gonna get you the first chance he gets." The boy said
"I want to ask about Last Resort." Asuto said seriously
"You want to know the trick to Last resort huh Asuto?" The boy asked
"Yeah." Asuto said
"I prefer you didn't do the shot honestly because even with 3 person there can always be a flaw that can't be seen. In this world people found answer in soccer whether a bad one or a good one they can't completely copy it. Inheritance is good and all but I assure you finding your own answer is better, we won't know what answer you may get or your teams. Tomorrow match against Spain is gonna be a hard one good luck I'll be watching your matches." The boy said as he leaves immediately with a goodbye
"The answer to my soccer." Asuto thought to himself and went back from where he came.
"Then I just have to do my best." He thought
