300 strikers under eighteen were summoned to Blue Lock. The hall of the meeting venue was crowded with highschool boys with excellent physiques. Senno's ace, Ookawa. The tallest high schooler, Ishikari. Aomori's Messi, Nishioka. Just look around and you'll see players "who you have seen in soccer magazine" levels. They are real soccer elites who have been selected for a special player training by Japan Football Union (or so they say). They are conscious of each other, their fighting and belligerent gazes collide with each other. The tension is so high that even bumping one on the shoulder could start a fight. Among those glaring boys, there was one who was clearly out of place. A boy standing quietly by the wall.
Despite his slender figure for an athlete, he has attracted the attention of those around him. He has beautiful shoulder-length red hair and large eyes framed by long lashes. Because he has such a beautiful face, you can mistook him for a girl for a moment.
"...What's that girly looking guy doing here?", someone snickered.
"He must have mistaken this for an idol audition?"
"Can he even play soccer? Looks ain't got nothing to do with it."
They are making shady remarks and petty taunts, grinning and laughing.
However... those who underestimated this pretty boy would later be kicked around altogether in Blue Lock. Indeed, looks have nothing to do with soccer. This good looking boy is beautiful only on the outside, but a true egoist on the inside. He is a natural-born striker who is more aggressive than anyone else on the pitch. Moreover, he's got a very impertinent* personality.
*生意気/namaiki can mean "impertinent, cocky, cheeky or even sassy".

From his peak to despair, then from rock bottom, going up to be the fastest runner in Blue Lock, this is Chigiri's story.
