Stabilizing the Team

"Idiot!!"

Rukawa Kaede did not appreciate Sakuragi Hanamichi's "kind-hearted" long pass at all. Instead, he cursed directly.

Slap!!

Very soon, Wu Yufei's actions proved that Rukawa Kaede had not been wrong to call him an idiot.

Sakuragi Hanamichi's long pass had traveled far too far, and Wu Yufei just happened to be in the path between the two of them.

Though he could not possibly jump that high and intercept the ball directly in midair, it was not difficult for Wu Yufei to run ahead to where the ball would begin descending, jump first, and secure it steadily.

Miuradai extended its lead once again.

"Steady yourselves! Don't let their
