Blue Lock Chapter 280 summary
Blue Lock Chapter 280, titled 'Wall of Talent', begins with Julian Loki blocking Kaiser's free kick, creating a loose ball that allowed Tabito Karasu to pass the ball to Zantetsu Tsurugi, sparking a counter-attack of Paris X Gen.
Zantetsu rushes forward, past Bastard Munchen's defenders, while Isagi thinks about what defines a 'genius' in football. He realized that players like Loki operate beyond logic, making them different from others.
Seeking guidance, Isagi asked Noel Noa what to do in Blue Lock Chapter 280, but Noa dismissed him, as he was only interested in players who could challenge him directly. This interaction makes Isagi doubt her potential.
As the match continued, Charles Chevalier's long pass appeared to be aimed at Ryusei Shidou, but was intercepted by Michael Kaiser, but was directed at Rin Itoshi. Rin advanced but was stopped by Igarashi's poor strategy of drawing the ball.
Isagi continues to struggle for his place among geniuses, while Ego Jinpachi observes him closely, realizing that Isagi's struggle has reached the “wall of talented people”. Blue Lock Chapter 280 ends with Ego looking forward to Isagi's discovery of the “evolution formula”.
