Chapter 114 Atobe: Tezuka, go become a professional player!
At this time, the trio, who were in a lot of trouble because they brought Kirihara and Toyama with them along the way, finally arrived at the center court.
Unlike Echizen and Kogane standing stupidly on the high platform, Kirihara saw two people standing side by side somewhere - Yukimura Seiichi and Amamiya Arashi.
Forgetting that he had been 'eliminated', and forgetting the coach's words to 'keep a low profile and be careful' before he came, Kirihara only saw the two seniors standing together. Fortunately, Kirihara still had some sense and did not run directly in front of those junior high school students. Instead, he found an inconspicuous direction and quietly walked past.
If there was a possibility that Kirihara's behavior would be discovered originally, when everyone's eyes and attention were focused on Tezuka, the possibility of being 'exposed' was greatly reduced.
……
On the court, Tezuka, who understood the hard work of his seniors and the concern of his teammates, turned around, and a smile appeared on his face that rarely showed expressions. He looked at Yamato and asked: "I still want to enjoy tennis again. Have fun, okay?”
"Haha~" Seeing that Tezuka seemed to have put down something, Yamato showed a happy smile on his face, "Of course!"
"Tezuka, you look very happy now~" Yamato held the tennis ball in his hand and smiled at Tezuka who was filled with joy, "Then, I want to get in too!" ’
Yamato Yudai once again put on the posture of playing "Illusion and Dream Appearance", and this goal was exactly "Illusion and Dream Appearance". The spectators outside the stadium originally thought that Tezuka had been 'cheated' again, but after being reminded by Atobe, who has extraordinary eyesight, they discovered that... the Tezuka who caught the phantom ball was also a phantom.
"boom--"
"Tezuka scored, leading 5-4." After the junior high school student outside the court discovered that Tezuka who caught the phantom ball was also a phantom, the real Tezuka also successfully hit the real tennis ball back.
"Tezuka Kunimitsu...successfully cracked Yamato's 'Phantom Appearance'?!" Nakago Uichi said with a hint of surprise in his voice.
"Is this...Tezuka Kunimitsu's...real strength?" Irie Kanata was a little confused.
"I'm afraid it's more than that!" Hearing a familiar voice, Irie and Nakago looked back in the inner lane and saw that it was Tanejima and Tokugawa carrying rackets. Behind them were Yanagi and Niou who had been promoted to Court No. 1, and the ones before them. Bunta Marui plays doubles one.
After saying this, Taneshima asked Tokugawa with a smile: "Tokugawa, what do you think..."
……
"It seems...you have truly awakened! Tezuka~" Looking at the white light covering the junior's body, Yamato Yudai knew that Tezuka had successfully entered the realm of 'the limit of seamlessness', but thinking of Tezuka's whole body With his heart filled with joy, and coupled with the concept of 'Happy Tennis' from Echizen Nanjiro, the founder of the 'Tenki' realm, Yamato Yudai did not have any doubts about Tezuka entering this realm.
Unlike Yamato Yudai who was indifferent, the junior high school students outside the court were quite shocked. Although the move 'Seamless Ultimate' was used by Echizen in the national competition, even if he used this move, he lost to Yukimura, but not many people think that this move is not strong, most of them just think that using this move Echizen is just not strong enough.
And now, watching Tezuka, who has unlocked the 'limit of seamlessness', crack Yamato's 'Illusion of Dreams', knocking the racket out of Yamato's hands again and again...
They thought excitedly: This is the true and complete ‘limit of seamlessness’.
What Tezuka on the court was thinking about at this time was the joy and excitement of working hard with his friends in Seigaku, winning games together, and marching across the country together... Along with the memories, Tezuka couldn't help but affirm: "Yes, I should. Everything has been done!”
……
As Tezuka's aura became stronger, Komatsu, who was still immersed in the close contact with Director Yukimura and Amamiya-senpai, was instantly attracted to her: "This, it seems to be the same trick that the shorty used in the national competition! "
Hearing Kirihara's surprise, Yukimura smiled and said, "This is different~"
"Tezuka's momentum is much stronger than that of Echizen back then!" Amamiya Arashi answered tacitly.
……
On the other side, Atobe, who was also attracted by Tezuka's aura, stared at Tezuka on the field. Shiraishi and Ninzu on the side also realized that Tezuka was far more powerful than Echizen at the time. momentum.
"This momentum..."
"Is this the ultimate tennis that the chosen ones can achieve?"
……
"The perfect trick!" Echizen on the steps stared blankly at the "Seamless" that appeared on Tezuka, which was far more powerful than him. He was a little stunned for a moment.
……
Ignoring the commotion in the audience, Tezuka on the court followed the beating yellow ball closely.
"boom--"
The yellow ball landed on the opposite baseline and then rolled back a short distance.
Whether on or off the court, there was silence for a while.
"Tezuka Kunimitsu scores, the game is over, the score is six to four!"
"Pah~pah pah..." As the referee's voice fell, the junior high school students outside the court couldn't help but applaud. This was not only congratulations to Tezuka for winning, but also congratulations for his further strength.
After finishing the game, Tezuka walked to the net and looked at the "leader" senior, with a tone full of gratitude: "Thank you for your guidance and teachings."
"Hahaha~" Yamato held Tezuka with one hand, and scratched his head awkwardly with the other hand, "Don't say that, I was also very happy in this competition, although I still lost in the end. …”
"Actually, it's not bad to wholeheartedly follow the path that you believe in..." After saying that, Yamato Yudai turned his back to Tezuka and left, not forgetting to wave to him as he left.
"..." Looking at the teasing senior, Tezuka didn't know what to say for a moment and could only watch him walk away in silence.
……
Off the court, Shiraishi and others were happy for Tezuka. Although they were once rivals, they were also competing partners.
"Tezuka has come out..."
"This man, you really have to admire him with admiration!"
While others were still discussing, Atobe walked to the intersection and stopped Tezuka, "You probably want to go to Germany, right?" Atobe leaned on the railing and raised one leg, "Go quickly. ! Hurry up and become a professional player!"
"Atobe..." Tezuka was slightly touched in his heart.
"Hmph~" Looking at Tezuka, who had a slightly moved expression on his face, Atobe's lips raised, "I will catch up with you soon."
One person is leaning on the railing, and the other person is standing upright under the stairs. But what was the same was the smile that appeared on the corners of their mouths.
The sun shone down, covering the two of them with a light golden coat.
