Chapter 40 Berserk Ray
Sakura dribbled up, passed to Tenma then to Shindou. He used his hissatsu tactic 'God's Baton Fire Illusion' to assist the team. The ball came to Tsurugi and, it's his time to shoot.
"Death Drop!" Tsurugi did his hissatsu technique.
Instead of blocking his shoot, Phobos stands still in the front of the goal and lets the shot go in. Everyone wondered. What had just gone in his head? Of course, the shoot is in.
Possession goes to the Ixal, with Sinope dribbling the ball. He passed it to Ymir, who is guarded by Kusaka. He passed roughly to him and gives the ball to Loge for a shoot.
"Dark Matter!"
"Rising Slash!" The Earth Eleven's goalkeeper attempted to stop the incoming shot to no avail.
The game continues, and the ball goes to the Earth Eleven. Manabe caught it, passes to Konoha and to Shindou. He is trapped by Dione and Gorham, but he intended to pass through them.
"These girls would never get my way. Presto Turn!" He used his dribbling hissatsu. He successfully passed and transcended the ball to Tenma and shoots.
Tenma delivered a shot, "God's Wind!"
"Shoot Ea-" Phobos failed to block the attack.
"Yatta! Earth Eleven is on the lead, 2-1!! But still, the possession is still theirs!" The commentator shouted once again.
Gorham smirked, "Didn't they forgot something?"
"I hope they do," Ozrock smirked back.
Yep, the possession is on the Earth Eleven but before they could do a thing, the Ixal Fleet did their ace tactic; the Berserk Ray.
"Ixal Fleet, start now! Berserk Ray!" The Ixal Fleet's captain directed.
Ibuki's eyes widened in anxiety, "Not again..."
The effect of the Berserk Ray reached Earth Eleven, which made them hold their chests in pain. [The heart is the main catcher of the Berserk Ray's pain because it attacks their souls that is connected to their hearts] That tactic attacks the souls of the opposing team, making them unusable throughout the game. Each player also shows a blue shadow representing their soul shapes, so their souls are controlled by Ixal Fleet.
But instead of trying to stop the heartache and showing a blue shadow of her soul, Yara doesn't feel any pain and showed pink shadows of her 2 recently used souls. Its obvious that she's not affected. But upon looking around the Earth Eleven's field....
"Guys! What's happening? What's with that hissatsu?" Yara spoke in a confused voice.
"B-Berserk Ray makes our souls unstable and unusable in this time, controls it and gives us an heartache. Ou-our souls will always oppose our moves for the team..." Shindou groaned.
"What...what shall I..."
Tetsukado, with a ball on his foot, shouts loudly and activates his soul Buffalo and attacks Ibuki. His shoot makes the score of Ixal Fleet.
"Wow! Ixal Fleet uses their Berserk Ray, immobilizing Earth Eleven! What should they do?" The host sounded a little worried about Earth Eleven's situation.
The possession is still on Earth's, Konoha taking the ball. She passed it to Shindou, whose trying hard not to kick it. But as he does it, the heartache gets more painful. He has no choice but to pass it to Minaho. He did the same thing that Shindou did, and also like him, he ended up transforming to his soul and shoots. Ibuki tries not to use this soul but failed. He got hit by Minaho's shoot.
"Sorry...I-Ibuki." Minaho apologized.
With the ball in possession of Earth Eleven, Ixal makes the Berserk Ray stronger, which affects the opposite team more. The Earth Eleven clenched their chest tighter, trying to fight the heart pain. The ball goes to Kusaka, passing the it to Manabe with the use of his soul, then to Tenma. He's been in the most miserable condition since he's the nearest to the Ixal's side. He dribbled the ball slowly, and kicked it to Ozrock. Ozrock intercepts the pass and shoots.
"Star Gazer!"
Ibuki can't do anything so he got hit by the shoot again. The ball is back to the Earth Eleven, and it rolls to Tsurugi. He gets it but he tries to oppose his soul's movement. Like the others, he failed and shoots. Another score for the Ixal.
"Score for us, Earth Eleven." Ozrock shows off his dark demeanor.
"T-That's the effect of the Berserk Ray-y...argh!" Tsurugi groaned in pain and fell to his knees.
"Tsurugi!!" Yara worriedly approached her lover, "Captain... what shall I do?"
Tenma gave the ball to her slowly, "Here, take this."
Yara blinked in bewilderment.
"Y-You must play alone for now. I know you can. Remember the challenge that you requested on your first day on Soccer Headquarters on Earth?"
Yara inhaled, calming herself, "Okay. I have to do this..."
Yara proceeded to the Ixal, which made them wonder.
"Wait, how could she dribble like that while we are using Berserk Ray? Isn't she affected?" Gorham said.
"That'll be impossible. I saw her using souls in each game, but, how come that she's not affected...interesting..." He grinned despite of this going against his plan.
The opposing team tensed, "She's coming."
Yara reached the Ixal's side, and looked at them seriously and smiles. She aimed for a counter shot.
"Ixal Fleet! Take this, Blazing Star!" She executed her technique.
Phobos got a hard time in blocking because he's still in the Berserk Ray's position, but he tried. He failed, giving a point for Earth Eleven.
"Great!! Ichiyou Yarakushi made a point for the Earth Eleven! But, how could she pass the Ixal's Berserk Ray?"
The ball rolls to her foot again, trying to confront Ozrock and the team.
"I see. You're also immobilized as your opponents are whenever you use this tactic. Let's see where is the Berserk Ray's limit, hm..." Yara placed her finger in his chin.
"Who knows, it might probably be limitless. How could a weakling like you you resist the Berserk Ray?" Ozrock taunted.
"Well, who knew that the Ixal's prince could talk with this high pride like this? I don't know exactly, but I think, it is because of the 3 souls that I have."
Ozrock was shocked that someone other than the people from his planet knows that he's a prince, although he chose to ignore it and focused on the game. "3 souls? Impossible..." Ozrock frowned.
"It is possible," She soon activated her soul, Lupus.
"Nani?!"
She shoots with her soul and the ball goes to Phobos straight. He tried to block it, but because of the shoot's strength and his steady stance made it hard. It was in. Gorham and Ozrock talked about what she'll do next.
"What are we going to do? We can't let her shoot and shoot like she has no opponents."
Ozrock gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes, "We have no choice but to stop the Berserk Ray."
She hesitated, "But, what about the othe-"
"Even if we stop the Berserk Ray, they can't help Yara because if the long time exposure to our tactic, get it? Her next shot will be pointless because Phobos won't need to control his position anymore."
Yara aimed for another shoot.
"Double Gust!!" She activated her shoot hissatsu.
Ozrock commanded, "Ixal, now!"
At the time Starsight let out the shoot, Ixal stopped the Berserk Ray, and Phobos is about to block Yara's shot.
"Shoot Eater!" Without the active tactic burdening him, he is able to guard Ixal's goalpost.
The buzzer rings after Phobos blocked the shot. The heart pain ceased on the Earth Eleven, and now they're out of breath. The scores are 4-5.
----End----
At last! Sorry for an update delay.
