Chapter 6
When Chiba Fujikawa was in the fifth grade, Sanada and Yukimura were in the fourth grade! In their third grade, because they were often bullied by the senior players with their physical advantages, they didn't have any tricks at that time, and their strength was far inferior to now, so the two directly formed a doubles combination and became Kanagawa's perennial winner.
It was when they were in the fourth grade that they officially became famous among their peers in the Kanto region.
"Me?".
Sanada Koichiro was a little surprised by Chiba's rhetorical question, but he thought about it seriously.
He...... Why did you play tennis in the first place? It seems that everyone is playing, and Yukimura is playing, so let's just play with it.
But now, for what?
Two years ago, the image of being bullied by senior students was vivid, and Yukimura said to him, "Ichiro, let's dominate together."
From that time on, he and Yukimura, two people who didn't want to lose, really fell in love with tennis, right?
Thinking of Yukimura, the corners of Sanada's mouth, which was originally serious, hooked up a smile.
From the friendship of bamboo horses and childhood plums, to the side by side!
In the future, no matter the wind and rain, what is there to fear?
"Probably, it's to dominate the tennis world side by side with Yukimura. "
Sanada told the truth, without any cover-up, and the smile on the corner of his mouth made Chiba slightly stunned, so that such a serious person would also laugh?
"Sanada-kun and Yukimura-kun have such a good relationship. "
Chiba said with a little envy, he also has some friends, but they are all ordinary friends he made when he was studying, and there is no one like Sanada and Yukimura.
"Now Chiba-kun can answer my question just now, right?" Sanada looked at Chiba, since Chiba Fujikawa asked this question just now, then his answer was also related to this.
Chiba nodded, picked up the bamboo knife beside him and stroked it gently, and said
"Actually, I don't like tennis very much, I rarely participate in tennis tournaments, I don't participate in the internal competitions of the elementary school organization or the East Japan JR League, at most I sometimes go to the club that has members to play a few practice matches. "
"Then why do you play tennis again, since Chiba-kun likes kendo so much, isn't it good to concentrate on kendo?".
Sanada Koichiro was a little puzzled, although he had a talent for kendo and was also the inheritor of Shinto Wunianliu, he did not regard kendo as an irreplaceable one.
"Sanada-kun knows what kendo is like now!" Chiba's tone became resolute, "I want not only inheritance, but to let kendo once again show its glory!"
"So, borrowing tennis to show off your kendo?" Sanada was very smart, and he guessed Chiba Fujikawa's intentions in an instant, and the shock in his heart was beyond measure.
It's not that you can use the light of tennis to promote kendo, but if you want to play a role, Chiba Fujikawa must at least become the top player in the world of tennis, so that someone will study his style and learn his style.
"Prove my kendo with tennis! Since there is no light in kendo, then use light to illuminate it!"
After a long silence, Sanada looked at Chiba with a little pity and more admiration on his face.
"Chiba-kun should know that this is a difficult thing to do. "
The pity is that in addition to kendo, Chiba is still kendo! He felt that he was mature enough, but he didn't expect Chiba to be even worse, it didn't seem like the mentality that a person of this age should have.
The same is true of those who admire!
Recreate the splendor of kendo ...... At least he, a fellow kendo inheritor, didn't dare to think about it.
"yes, it's hard. Chiba gently put down the bamboo knife in his hand, "But what's the difference? Sanada-kun and Yukimura-kun also want to dominate the tennis world, right?"
"Once you do that, you've achieved your goal, aren't you? I'm no different from everyone else. "
Sanada fell silent again, not knowing whether to say whether Chiba was inflated or confident.
"Genichiro, it's time for us to go back!".
On the other side, Old Man Sanada was already greeting him.
"If you have the chance, I hope to compete with Chiba-kun, tennis!" Sanada stood up and saluted Chiba again.
Since you haven't taken off your kendo uniform, you haven't walked out of the kendo hall, you have been taught, and you should salute!
Chiba also stood up and returned the salute, packed up his bamboo knife and protective equipment, put it away, and then put on his tennis bag, and the four of them left the kendo hall.
Sanada and the two got in the car and returned to Kanagawa, while the Chiba and Chiba went home on foot.
The final exam is easy for Chiba, but the Ice Emperor is a strange school for him, and the entrance exam is very crucial, and he is in a critical period during this time, in addition to insisting on practicing his kendo tennis, he is brushing the questions.
It also led to a lot of estrangement between him and his classmates during this time, but he didn't care about these himself.
"Ichiro, what did you just say to Fujikawa?"
In the car, the old man Sanada remembered the salute that Sanada Koichiro had given to Chiba before leaving, he knew that his grandson was arrogant, even if he was wearing a kendo uniform, he would only salute sincerely when he was really impressed, not to mention that he was only a year older than him.
Chiba-kun also plays tennis, he said...... He said that he wanted to be able to regain the glory of kendo through tennis. "
Sanada Koichiro looked out the window and remembered Chiba's expression just now, perhaps...... That guy can really do it.
Chiba...... Seniors!
This title, that person, deserves it.
