Chapter 522: Receival for national heroes



Upon landing, Hiro was assaulted by an almost unbelievable sight- a great number of people had shown up at the airport to receive them.

The crowd was so huge that a moment after they landed they were informed that theyn/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

couldn't even leave through the hidden chambers. It appeared as if the entire airport had been seized by the supporters who had displayed in great numbers.

So, they didn't have any option but to face the supporters.

When they were informed about the news, he hadn't thought much about it. For sure there wouldn't be more than a few hundred people. That's what he had thought initially after learning about the predicament from some people who had rushed to inform the news.

But as they got closer to the exit, their auditory senses were bombarded with the cheers of people. As they got closer to the exit the more the noise grew.

For a while, many couldn't help but ponder if a carnival was taking place.

Even then, Hiro kept his cool as he didn't think much about it.

However, when he got close to the exit and gazed outside the airport doors, his eyes opened wide in shock. The sheer number of people outside the airport surprised him. It was as if there was almost no end to the number of people outside.

Outside traffic was so huge that some league games wouldn't rival it.

It seemed like their recent performance in the international friendlies had sparked a massive sensation at home.

"Just how are we going to get through?" someone in the team voiced their concern upon looking at the sea of supporters outside the airport.

While many appeared excited about the scene outside, some displayed an expression full of anxiousness as they found it quite difficult to cope with the pressure.

Even Hiro who was already used to seeing such a massive flock of people couldn't help but feel somewhat uneasy.

But before Hiro could bring himself to speak, he stormed away.

"As you can see, a lot of people have shown up here to receive our players who had returned after a magnificent campaign," a reporter dressed in formal attire said.

"Today, a great number of people have shown up to welcome our players. Well, after how amazingly Hiro had played in the games against such giants, it was only to be expected"

"An international hattrick on his senior debut... Just how many people can you name who can pull such a feat?" another reporter added excitedly.

You could hear the excitement in his voice and see the eagerness in his eyes.

The reaction of the crowd was even more wild. There were people involved in constant squabble to reach the front. Many were struggling to maintain their position up front. Constantly, people were pushing each other to covet the better position.

You could palpably see the passion in their eyes. Moreover, you could audibly hear them chanting the name of Hiro.

Even before he debuted for the senior team, he had already dazzled people with his talent. But many still held a fear that he'd flop once he debuts for the senior team.

However, right now, it appeared as if they were simply being fearful for nothing.

After his performance with such big teams as Brazil and Georgia, it was clear that he wasn't someone who could only perform at home level but was someone capable of leading their team to the next level.

Hiro was their messiah to their hope to win international silverware one day.

Maybe, they could go on to win the Asia Cup this year.

Many couldn't help but want to believe in him.

Japan although appeared as a title contender team had failed to live up to the expectations.

The long trophy drought that they faced was a testament to their lack of conviction.
