Following a recent break, early spoilers and plot leaks for Blue Lock Chapter 357 have finally emerged. This comes on the heels of the previous chapter, which saw Teddy Knight successfully net England’s opening goal against Japan using his signature cut-in technique. Here is a breakdown of everything fans need to know about the upcoming chapter’s events.
Blue Lock Chapter 357 Leak Highlights
A detailed breakdown of the leaked plot points for the upcoming chapter is as follows.
Fox taunts Ego following England’s opening goal
The chapter opens by breaking down the mechanics of the cut-in technique—a move allowing players to slice through the center of the pitch to secure a goal—which ultimately earned Knight his spot on the squad. As the scene shifts to the sidelines, Ego looks visibly stunned by England’s breakthrough. Fox seizes the moment to mock Ego, suggesting he is secretly a fan of the English squad he built. Ego fires back that Fox hasn’t changed at all. Fox then challenges Ego to put his money where his mouth is and orchestrate a goal. In response, Ego confidently declares that Blue Lock will breach England’s defense and pioneer a new era of soccer.
Kenyu introduces the iaido technique to the pitch
Back on the field, Isagi acknowledges that starting from behind puts Blue Lock at a disadvantage. He looks to devour a rival player, but realizes their opponents are acting like egoless puppets, leaving him no specific target to feast upon. Instead, he shifts his focus to analyzing Knight’s playing style. As the match resumes, attention turns to Yukimiya Kenyu, who—acting on Ego’s direct instructions—incorporates iaido into his soccer. Traditionally a sword technique, iaido involves drawing the blade, striking, and sheathing it with blinding speed, leaving opponents zero time to react or comprehend the situation.
Kenyu and Zantetsu team up to put pressure on England
As Kenyu drives forward with the ball, he finds himself swarmed by defenders. He taunts them before quickly feeding a pass to Zantetsu. Thanks to Zantetsu’s explosive acceleration, he is instantly positioned to receive the ball and surge ahead. His lightning speed catches England’s Damon off guard as he powers forward. However, Rooke steps in to block his path, warning him that a score is out of the question. Even Isagi watches on, clearly impressed by the seamless chemistry sparking between Kenyu and Zantetsu.
Japan mounts a counterattack
When England attempts to launch a counter-offensive, Karasu steps up, vowing that they will not let these puppet players score again. England’s Agi tries to take matters into his own hands, proclaiming himself as the sole bearer of true ego on his side. Despite his aggressive push, Kiyora manages to halt him. Seizing the opening, Aiku declares that it is finally Japan’s turn to find the back of the net.
