NOVEL WEB Chapter 110 Yamato Yudai
After the referee announced the end of the game, Nakago Uichi, who was an opponent but had been impressed by Zangusa's perseverance and strength, crossed the net with his long legs, picked him up, and sent him to the auditorium where Oni Jujiro was. Location.
"This kid..." Nakagochi said with a smile and looked at Oni Jujiro, "Can he continue to become stronger?"
"Hmph~ Of course." Oni Jujiro, who always had a serious expression on his face, also laughed rarely. His eyes revealed his appreciation and recognition for Tibetan Hare's performance in this game.
……
"Next, we will have a doubles match between Court No. 3 and Court No. 5. Please take your seats."
As the announcement rang, both sides soon appeared on the court. On Court No. 5, Kuranosuke Shiraishi and Bunta Marui were sent, while on Court No. 3, Chihiko Matsudaira and Tonin were sent.
……
"boom--"
"boom--"
……
During the game, except for the cooperation between Shiraishi and Marui, which was a bit rusty at the beginning, everything else was fine. But when the score came to zero to two, the tacit understanding between Shiraishi and Marui was almost perfect. After all, one of them is a top player among junior high school students, and the other is a famous doubles player at Rikkai University...
And when the tacit understanding between the two came up, the high school student on the opposite side looked a lot miserable. In addition to the two points he took advantage of at the beginning, he only scored one pitiful point later on.
The Doubles 2 match ended with the victory of Shiraishi & Marui on Court No. 5, with the score of 6 to 3.
The high school student who got this result looked at his hand holding the racket in disbelief, and didn't bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
The junior high school students outside the field were very happy. The victory of this doubles game restored their previous disadvantage.
"Now it's a win, a loss and a draw." Atobe stood in the preparation seat and looked at the court with satisfaction.
On the surface, Irie Kanata showed an unexpected look and sighed, "Oh~ This is really surprising!" Then he looked at the next person to appear - Yamato Yudai .
"Huh? What's wrong with you, Yamato?" Irie looked at Yamato Yudai who was a little depressed and was confused, and then said, "You will appear soon!"
Hearing this, Yamato Yudai straightened his back, but he still looked very negative, but there was a hint of determination in his eyes.
Following Yamato Yudai's gaze, Irie saw Tezuka Kunimitsu who was arranging his racket.
After a while, Yamato spoke, "When I was in the third year of junior high school... he was still a first-year junior student..." Then, he stood up and walked to the court, "I'm going to return something to him that he has forgotten."
"Please, Yamato~" Irie looked at Yudai Yamato walking towards the court with interest, and his opponent for this game - Tezuka Kunimitsu.
……
"Tezuka, my opponent in the next match is Minister Yamato!" Fuji narrowed his eyes, and his soft voice rang in Tezuka's ears.
"Ah." Tezuka lowered his head and continued to pack his tennis bag. Although his expression was still the same as before, it was clear at a glance that this person's mind was no longer here.
"Tezuka, it seems that Kunichi defeated Minister Yamato at that time, I remember..." Kikumaru Eiji said a little uncertainly, because he was not there at the time. This was only what other people said, but it looked different. With a vague look of affirmation in Er's eyes, Kikumaru's tone gradually became optimistic and excited: "Doesn't that mean we are definitely winning this game?"
"..." After hearing this, Tezuka suddenly raised his head, looked at Yamato Yudai who was already standing in front of the net, picked up the racket and walked towards him, leaving only the sound of one word on the edge of the empty bench, " No……"
……
"Tezuka~ Congratulations on leading Seigaku to the national competition." Yamato first expressed his appreciation for the achievements of the Seigaku Tennis Club under Tezuka's leadership, but after Tezuka politely thanked him, he changed the subject and asked doubtfully: "However, what I am curious about is, why are you still in a place like this?"
"Huh?" These words were a bit sudden. Tezuka didn't have time to think about the meaning of Yamato's words, so he looked at him with confused eyes.
Looking at Tezuka like this, Yamato Yudai sighed and said, "I heard that the German professional tennis team invited you, didn't it? I thought... you had gone to Germany a long time ago. .”
"This is a good opportunity, isn't it? Why don't you accept it immediately if the conditions are right?" Yamato asked again.
The junior high school students who heard the conversation between the two outside the court also started talking about it.
"What? It turns out that a team has taken a liking to Tezuka so early!"
"Indeed, this is a rare opportunity."
"And it's still Germany~ It's not much better than what we have here..."
"And it's a professional team. Tezuka is planning to enter the profession, right?"
……
The buzz outside the court did not affect those inside.
Tezuka Kunimitsu was not affected by the remarks outside the court. He said to Yamato Yudai calmly, "As a candidate player for the representative team, I must do my best. Now this is the only thing I can think of."
"Well - after becoming the pillar of youth academy, do you want to become the pillar of the youth representative team of country R?" Yamato Yudai closed his eyes and said helplessly, "I really can't stand you." Yamato Yudai said I couldn't help but feel a trace of apology and guilt in my heart.
"However, this is indeed your style..." Yudai Yamato carried the racket and turned to Tezuka and said, "Okay, then we, the two former presidents of Seigaku, will enjoy tennis. Have fun, okay?”
The competition between the two is about to break out.
……
In the back mountain, the junior high school students who were finally able to walk around with the lead-filled tennis club were having a 'battle' with coach Mifune, and it was Mifune Ido who was fighting against all the junior high school students in the back mountain.
"boom--"
"Quick, quick, you have to catch the ball!" Seeing that the junior high school students failed to catch the ball again, Mifune couldn't help but express some anxiety in his words.
"Although what you said is so simple," Takeshi Momoro gasped and couldn't help but retort, "But, holding such a heavy racket..."
"It's very difficult just to run!" Someone picked up what Taocheng had not finished.
"Yes, yes..." Several feeble echoes sounded from behind them.
"..." Coach Mifune had no intention of talking nonsense with them and just continued to serve.
"Hey!" Echizen ran with the racket and almost caught a ball.
"Ha——" After seeing Echizen move, Kirihara was not to be outdone and hit back a ball. Although it seemed that he had a little more effort than Echizen, but... the moment he jumped up, some sharp-eyed junior high school students seemed to see When it comes to putting weight on Kirihara's ankles
"Go back!" With both Kirihara and Echizen successfully fighting back, how could Toyama Kintaro not actively participate.
……
"He, they..." Some junior high school students who really couldn't run looked at the "energetic" three people in surprise and swallowed their saliva.
"You're really working hard! Especially Echizen..." One person said that among the three of them, Ryoma Echizen's expression looked the most serious... and no matter what kind of training he was doing recently... he seemed to be working very hard! A desperate attitude...
"I think...Tachikai Daiya is quite ruthless." Several sharp-eyed junior high school students looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
"What do you mean?" someone asked curiously.
"The racket is already very heavy!" After seeing everyone around him nodding in approval, the man continued: "But Kirihara, there are weights on his feet! And there are two of them!"
"... Cruel man!"
"No wonder people say that they build a large volume of sea..."
