### Summary
Thrown into the high-speed Neo Egoist League match by Noel Noa, Yoichi Isagi immediately attempts to make his mark. In a moment of panicked overconfidence, he tries to insert himself into a play against the genius striker Michael Kaiser, only to be utterly shut down and humiliated. The failure is so complete that Kaiser patronizingly pats Isagi's head, a brutal welcome to the world stage where his current abilities are simply not enough. Isagi is left reeling from the harsh lesson that he cannot compete at this level without a radical evolution, as he is completely outclassed by the speed and skill of the international prodigies.
