Chapter 95 Irregular venue
Irie breathed a sigh of relief when Liu agreed to wait until the next day to compete with him again.
After watching the two people discuss it, Amangong Lan planned to take everyone to the cafeteria. It was almost time to go to eat, not to mention that after a long period of training and the fight with Tokugawa just now, he had consumed a lot of energy. , now there is an urgent need to supplement food.
Maybe they went there early, or maybe the other guys training on the court were blocked by something, so when they came to the cafeteria, they only saw delicious food and staff.
……
In the back mountain, after a day of exhaustion, the junior high school students in the losing group who had not even eaten breakfast looked at the gradually setting sun, standing on the platform with dull eyes, and the group of students who had been trained by coach Mifune using different methods all day. High school students are 'taught' together.
"Ahem..." Mifune stood on the squat cylindrical stone pier where he usually sat, facing everyone, "The sun is about to set, and today's training should come to an end. Let's decide..."
"What do we need to decide...?" asked Dashi, who was standing among the junior high school students.
Coach Mifune was very cooperative: "A place to stay and a bed for tonight."
"Ah?" A group of junior high school students.
"The hut on the mountain can only accommodate a group of junior high school students or high school students."
"Excuse me……"
"So...you mean"
"We have to compete with high school students, and the winner gets to live in the cabin, right?"
"Really?" Momochi immediately became excited when he heard that there was going to be a competition, "We are going to compete with high school students!"
"By the way, the loser will live in the cave over there." Mifune casually pointed to a cave next to the cabin.
Looking at the dark cave, the small wooden house that was not so exquisite suddenly became taller.
Coach Mifune didn't care about what the teenagers were thinking, and said directly, "The ending of this time will be named the battle for residence between high school students and junior high school students."
"There's no creativity at all!" Qian, who was hiding among the crowd, complained helplessly.
However, a few people who didn't care about this name, such as Echizen Ryoma, Toyama Kintaro, Kirihara Akaya... all looked at Coach Mifune with fighting intent, hoping that he could explain the rules of the game quickly. They couldn't wait to do it. 'Teach a lesson' to those nasty high school students!
"The rules of the game are very simple... the person who made the mistake leaves the court, and the one who stays on the court until the end wins." Looking at the hopeful faces below, Mifune simply explained the rules.
After hearing this, several voices of doubt came out from the team of junior high school students, "Please wait a moment... This is not fair to us no matter how you look at it!"
"No matter how you look at it, you should know that our number is relatively small!"
……
However, Coach Mifune ignored their plans and simply asked symbolically, "Are you all ready?" and then said, "Let's get started."
Taocheng said angrily: "That bad old man wasn't listening at all!"
Kawamura Takashi sighed, "I think it's useless to protest to that coach."
"Senior Aaron...this is for you." Looking at Takashi Kawamura who was a little sad, someone took out a racket and gave it to Kawamura.
"Ahhhhhhh!" After getting the racket, Takashi Kawamura immediately became excited, "Burning! No matter it's the small number of people or other unfavorable conditions, it's no problem now. Even if we have to play together, Then let your horse come over!"
"Oh?" Mifune took a sip of wine and looked at Takashi Kawamura with admiration, "Your momentum is very good. In this case, let's get started."
"boom--"
"Ugh~ The ball is coming -" Taocheng was about to catch the ball, but he didn't expect Haitang to move faster, "Hey~ leave it to me!"
Unfortunately, because he didn't understand the court, the tennis ball bounced in a different direction than he expected.
Seeing this scene, Haitang said in surprise, "...This is! An irregular venue?"
"That one over there, you're out!" Seeing that Haitang failed to fight back, Coach Mifune ruled that he was out. Haitang could only walk out of the stadium helplessly and stay aside.
For the next few balls, among the junior high school students, some saw the ball coming towards them and subconsciously grabbed it with their hands, some did not react in time and failed to return the ball successfully, and some failed to hit the ball...
As Coach Mifune kept saying "That one over there, you're out," "You, you're out," "You're out!"...the number of junior high school students still standing in the stadium was getting smaller and smaller.
“It’s really difficult to play on this golf course!”
"I have no idea where the ball will go. Even serving is very difficult!"
"Yeah, yeah..." For players like them who are used to hitting the ball on the ground and then using the rebound of the ball to serve, this court is really unfriendly.
.........
Unlike the junior high school students who are using the irregular venue for the first time, the high school students who have been training here for a long time obviously have some experience.
"Then I want to play!" The yellow-haired high school student looked at the junior high school student opposite and smiled ferociously, then swung his racket hard.
"Look at me! Ahhh..." Seeing the ball coming, Tao Cheng faced it directly. When the ball landed, he touched the tennis ball with his racket, and then swung towards the court where the high school students were.
Seeing the tennis ball being hit back, the junior high school students still on the court smiled.
"Great A Tao, well done!"
……
Unfortunately, the tennis ball did not fly to the high school student's half of the court. Perhaps because of the angle, the ball hit Tian Renzhi's broad back.
"Out." Seeing this scene, Mifune had no emotion in his heart. He just felt that the junior high school students were happy too early.
Seeing Takeshi Momoro's dejected look, the high school students across from him couldn't help but start mocking him.
"There's no comparison at all~"
"That's right!"
"It's completely vulnerable!"
"Hahahahahaha..."
……
"This is really bad! The high school students opposite know all about the ups and downs of this stadium." Qian's face looked quite ugly.
The person next to me added, "No matter how you think about it... we are very disadvantaged!"
"Everyone, come and gather!" Sanada looked to his left and right, "I thought of a good way."
After hearing Sanada's words, the remaining junior high school students on the field gathered towards him.
……
Seeing the strange posture of the junior high school students, the high school students couldn't help but express doubts.
"Oh~ do you really want to do this?"
"Hey, hey~ Don't you think it's easier to fight if there are fewer people?"
"It's not that simple here!"
Only a few junior high school students stayed in the middle of the field, while the others stood on the edge, as if intending to watch the game.
Seeing the junior high school students who had no intention of replying, the high school students continued to serve.
"boom--"
"I advise you not to underestimate me, Osaka's 'Naniwa Star'!" As soon as he finished speaking, Kenzu Ken, who was running fast, successfully hit the ball back, but he also fell to the ground.
However, facing Kenya Shinozu's return ball, the yellow-haired high school student on the opposite side hit the ball back with a smash. Kenzu Ken, who fell to the ground, could not get up in time to return the ball.
"Get out." Mifune pointed at Kenya Shinobu and said.
