After signing with AC Milan, I will be the king of football!-Chapter 537 - 0226 Jujutsu Kaisen: The Pinnacle of Battle (Please Subscribe)_4
Milan also won all the way.
However, both coaches, Capello and Ancelotti, had turned their focus early on to the upcoming UEFA Champions League semi-finals.
On April 21st, Real Madrid played at home against Valencia. Capello simply left Huang Kaiwen out of the big list, for fear that Huang Kaiwen might get injured before the Champions League semi-final.
Valencia had some history of causing injuries.
In the end, Real Madrid won against Valencia with a score of 2:1, thanks to goals from Higuain and Guti.
After the match, the Real Madrid team flew to Milan City for the first time in half a month.
The next morning at breakfast, Capello said in front of everyone, "Next we’ll use Inter Milan’s training ground. AC Milan is willing to lend us their training ground, but it’s not appropriate for opponents to train together. I have some matters to attend to today, so the assistant coach will accompany you to the training."
The Real Madrid players did not speak.
Many faces already showed signs of happiness.
Most players were not keen on seeing Capello standing by the pitch.
Turning to see Capello’s expressionless face could be quite frightening.
After giving his instructions, Capello hurried off.
He went to the Milan Cathedral and, after being announced, met with Cardinal Asier Laty once again.
This time Capello didn’t plan to invite people from the church, but he was afraid Ancelotti would invite the Cardinal over.
Adhering to the principle that weakening an opponent is to strengthen oneself, Capello decided to make the first move and invite the Cardinal.
Capello said with a smile, "Your Eminence, I apologize for the intrusion. For this Champions League semi-final, I would like to invite you to attend and support us."
Asier Laty put down his quill, looked up, and said with a smile, "I will do my utmost to ensure the Champions League semi-final is free from disruption, but I think before that, you should return to the Lord’s embrace first."
Capello laughed dryly, "I will, rest assured."
After all, he was suspended, and whatever he did in the stands was beyond the Cardinal’s control.
"To accept the gospel of the Lord is the greatest fortune."
Asier Laty nodded and smiled, signaling Capello could leave.
Capello stretched his neck to peer at the table, curious whether the Cardinal was writing the book from before.
Asier Laty pushed the book slightly forward with a smile, and Capello saw the cover read, "The Most Dangerous Existence: The Evil in the Spanish Clásico - Asier Laty’s Destruction of the Most Powerful Heretical Organization on Record."
...
As the UEFA Champions League semi-finals approached, the excitement for the two matches rose.
It was a football feast for fans all over the world.
If one had to compare, the match between Real Madrid and Milan was definitely receiving more attention.
The North West Derby happened at least twice every year, so even Manchester United or Liverpool fans were not that excited. In contrast, the whole world was curious about what kind of performance Huang Kaiwen would bring against his old team AC Milan, and whether Milan could stand up against Real Madrid, which now had Huang Kaiwen.
Newspapers, television, and the internet were ablaze with discussions about the match.
The Sun newspaper even took the opportunity to list the top ten good friends of Huang Kaiwen in football:
Tenth place: Messi,
Ninth place: Ronaldinho,
Eighth place: Ronaldo,
Seventh place: Raul,
Sixth place: Cassano,
Fifth place: Gattuso,
Fourth place: Maldini,
Third place: Inzaghi,
Second place: Ramos,
First place: Kaka.
They mainly judged based on the time spent together and the interactions between them.
Cassano, as he often visited Huang Kaiwen’s home, was ranked higher than Raul. Some Milan players who got along well with Huang Kaiwen were not on the list because they hadn’t been photographed together privately.
The Sun newspaper wrote: "Ramos, with his fanatical fan-like actions, surpassed Inzaghi by always being the first to rush up when Kevin was hurt. But even so, he can’t replace Kaka’s place. During their time at Milan, Kevin and Kaka would always act together, whether in training or rest, and if possible, I think Kaka would prefer to live with Kevin rather than Beatrice Borromeo."
Kaka closed the laptop with a smile.
He changed clothes and headed to Milanello for the final preparations.
When he arrived at the team, he found that only assistant coach Tassotti was there.
Tassotti explained to the players, "Carlo has some matters to attend to. The match is tonight, and for now, you just need to relax. If anyone is feeling unwell, tell me in advance so I can contact Carlo and make adjustments to the starting lineup."
After the meeting was dismissed,
the players went off to train in twos and threes.
Inzaghi approached Kaka and said, "Did you see the rankings in ’The Sun’ newspaper?"
"I saw them."
Kaka nodded with a smile and said, "Their rankings are pretty good; ’The Sun’ seems quite professional in that aspect."
"Bullshit, there’s no way I rank behind you and that Ramos. I’m Kevin’s best friend!"
Inzaghi complained dissatisfied.
"Right, right, right, you’re Kevin’s best friend."
Kaka said in a placating tone, like one used with a child.
He didn’t want to get entangled with Inzaghi for too long.
"Don’t try to fob me off. You don’t understand the relationship between Kevin and me. I’ve driven to pick him up so many times when he was in a pinch!"
Inzaghi argued, neck stiff.
"What you’re saying is different from the version I’ve heard. I think Kevin’s version is more credible."
Kaka said with a smile.
"Well, I often give that guy Kevin some money. That’s always true, right? Didn’t Shakespeare say something like don’t loan money or borrow from others? I give money directly to Kevin without him needing to borrow. Isn’t that greater than what Shakespeare said?"
Inzaghi asked proudly.
"Neither a borrower nor a lender be. For loan oft loses both itself and friend, and borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry. This above all: to thine own self be true. That’s the original quote from Shakespeare,"
Kaka recited before saying, "He was advising against lending and borrowing, which has nothing to do with your situation. Plus, you’re not giving Kevin money; you’re always losing money to him!"
Inzaghi wanted to argue further.
Kaka plainly ignored him, otherwise Inzaghi would only get more and more worked up.
...
At the physics lab of the Polytechnic University of Milan.
Ancelotti, dressed in a white lab coat, anxiously watched the machine set up in the center.
Professor Hamid Karimi patted Ancelotti on the shoulder and said, "Your theory is very interesting. We’ve already tested the machine in advance. Now, we have only a minor issue about the receiving part; machine number six has already achieved maturity. But, the aspect of adding network spiritual power is problematic. WiFi was invented by an Australian team long ago, and machine number six can already connect to WiFi. The main issue now is transmitting the spiritual power from the network to machine number six. Our current method is to look for certain keywords on mainstream social media, but the difficulty lies in the need to have someone operating the computer nearby, as the WiFi signal cannot travel very far."
Ancelotti nervously rubbed his hands back and forth.
The match was tonight, and his equipment wasn’t ready yet. This was not acceptable.
Suddenly, Ancelotti had a flash of inspiration and excitedly grabbed Professor Karimi, saying, "Is there a possibility that the spiritual power generated by those people on the network is actually psychic power? So we don’t need to deliberately search for spiritual power on the network; we just need to widen the receiving range of machine number six!"
"Exactly, we’ve fallen into a trap!"
Professor Karimi said, "Previously, we only thought of extracting spiritual power from the network. It’s only now, with your comment, that I realize it was a false premise all along. However, it’s too late to increase the power now. I think machine number six is already sufficient for your current use."
"Six is a new machine, right? The chip inside the shoes was matched with machine number five. Do we need to make any adjustments?"
Ancelotti asked worriedly.
He wasn’t very knowledgeable about these things, but he knew that if you changed TVs at home, even if it was the same brand, the old remote control might have issues.
"Theoretically, there shouldn’t be any problems,"
Professor Karimi said with a smile.
"So, there could be practical issues?"
Ancelotti asked anxiously.
"Yes, but you don’t have to worry. My students and I joining the coaching staff was already agreed upon. We will adjust the machines on-site."
Professor Karimi stated.
Ancelotti said excitedly, "That’s fantastic! Even if that bastard Capello has Kevin, without spiritual power enhancement, he couldn’t possibly bring out Kevin’s full potential!"
