In Chapter 242, we saw Ness’ backstory leading to how he met Kaiser.

Blue Lock Chapter 242 Recap and Spoilers

Alexis Ness had a rough upbringing, as shown in the leaks and raw scans. When he went to his family to get bumps or bruises healed, they dismissively told him what to do so he could do it himself. When he believed in magic and played make-believe because…well, he’s a child, they scolded him. But when he discovered football, and how good he truly was at it, he discovered a magic of his own.

But this wouldn’t last, with the magic fading as he discovered other players as good as him, and he started to falter. This is where Michael Kaiser steps in, a powerful force that picks him up and pushes him forward.

Fans were surprised by the Ness backstory, with even leakers like Rayuga assuming it’d be a Kaiser chapter, but their sources suggest it’ll be coming up in the release of Blue Lock Chapter 243!
