Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 135 If you can speed up in advance (5K)

This is terrible... As expected of a genius trainer, this Nanase Fumino...

After hearing Yae Wudi's tactical arrangements for this preliminary battle against the Transcendence Team, Kitahara couldn't help but feel a headache.

Indeed, the five girls in Oguruma are all extremely talented horse girls, and there are only a few who can compare to them in this generation. With such strength, they can guarantee a very high winning rate against most opponents, and the fact that they have won the majority of the games is the best proof of this.

However, this does not mean that only five of them can be considered the top in this generation. Yae Mudi and Sakura Chiyo are also at the top among thousands of horse girls of the same period.

But they are both in the transcendence team, and if they compare them one by one, they can find that just in terms of the most basic abilities, Yongshi is not sure to win.

Take the four horse girls who will compete next as an example.

Dido's last kick is actually not inferior to Oguro's. The former's victories so far have all been achieved with last kicks that tear the field apart, and all of them have been won with a big lead.

In the training of the Eternal Team, Super Xiaohaiwan had no ability to compete with Xiaolimao in the end. She was able to win the training match, relying more on her strong endurance and exquisite tactics. Once this tactic failed to work and she was forced into a battle of other abilities such as strength and speed, Xiaohaiwan's chances of winning dropped immediately.

Sakura Chiyo's tactic of taking a big lead would cause Xiao Haiwan to engage in a battle of strength, speed, etc., which would be equivalent to eliminating the latter's tactical advantage.

In addition to the tactical shift from advantage to balance, there is another aspect that is unfavorable to the little bay.

That is, in the parallel dimension, Sakura Chiyo King defeated Dido Shooter in the Yayoi Award by relying on the tactic of escaping all the way to the end.

If Uma Musume has enough ability to escape, the advantages of other running methods will definitely be greatly restricted. As long as Sakura Chiyo is ahead by a certain distance, no matter how strong Dido Shooter's last kick is, it will be difficult to catch up. If he really catches up, he will probably have crossed the finish line, and it will be meaningless at that time.

Running away is such a way of running that is both highly entertaining and effective.

Kitahara couldn't assume that the Sakura Chiyo King in this dimension was not a master of escape, so he could only reluctantly accept the reality that this Wakaba Championship would be the most difficult game that Xiaowan had ever faced.

"...Chief Kitahara, you...don't look very well. Are you worried about Xiao Wan?"

Kitahara suddenly came to his senses when he heard the worried voice of Aldan Mejiro. He first felt his facial muscles stiffen a little, and immediately realized that it was probably because he had been thinking too much. Then he subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice, and took another glance. He found that not only Aldan, but also Miyamura Kyoko and Shinshin Glory who had come to the viewing hall with him were looking at him a little uneasily.

Maruzenski also came with them. She was also looking at Kitahara at the moment. However, compared with Aldan and the others, this experienced legendary horse girl understood Kitahara's thoughts a little bit.

"Are you worried that Prince Chiyo's escape distance will exceed the response range of the small bay?" She thought for a moment and asked what Kitahara was thinking.

After this question was asked, Aldan and the others paid more attention to Kitahara. Rudo Symbol, Yae Wudi, Di Ye Yixing, and Kouchi Zhong were originally looking at this side, but now their eyes could not help but pay more attention.

Indistinctly, it seemed that everyone wanted to hear Kitahara's opinion.

The big screen in the room also happened to show the Hanshin Stadium.

In the broadcasted footage, the audience had already started cheering, and the commentary also indicated that the competition over there had already begun its presentation.

"...Indeed, compared to Chiyoou, Xiaowan does not have any advantage in speed. Her strength lies in her extraordinary endurance."

After a moment's silence, Beiyuan looked at the horse racing ladies gradually appearing in the show ring on the screen. He had nothing to hide and said slowly:
"So far, her tactics are actually very similar to what Yae Wudi just said. She tries to drag other opponents into the endurance running style that she is good at."

"As long as the opponent enters the field that you are good at, it is not difficult to win."

"only……"

He looked in the direction of Yae Mudi, Di Ye Yixing, and Kouchi Tadashi, and smiled bitterly, "This tactic was cracked by Chief Naise in the same way."

"Sakura Chiyo-sama should be very good at escaping. She won't give Xiao Wan a chance to use his tactics. In this way, if Xiao Wan can't discover this in time and respond, I'm afraid his chances of winning will be very slim."

At this time, Maruzenski nodded.

"Well, that kid Chiyo-oh is really good at leading and releasing the opponent."

She stroked her chin, looking reminiscent, "When school started, I happened to go to their freshman training, and at the invitation of the teacher, I showed them some running techniques."

"That kid seemed very interested in me. He kept sticking to me after the presentation. He also often chatted with me in the academy, sent me text messages, called me to say hello, and gave me gifts on holidays."

"I still have a stuffed dog on my desk that she gave me. She said it looks like me, but I think it actually looks like her. And its name is 'Sakura Wangwang Wang', which is obviously her."

"Oh, that's a bit off topic."

Whether intentionally or to lighten the mood, Maruzenski said some trivial things about Sakura Chiyoou, then smiled and shrugged.

"Anyway, I've simply run side by side with her a few times, and I can confirm that she is different from me who is simply fast. She is really good at leading and even escaping."

Hearing this, Kitahara nodded silently, while Aldan, Shining Glory and Miyamura Kyoko were a little anxious. Shining Glory even touched his pocket and took out his cell phone.

"Then let's quickly tell Xiao Wan and Yuhara and the others. Now that we know this, if we tell them...ah! No..." She reacted halfway through her sentence, and then her ears drooped, and she looked at Yae Wudi helplessly, and said awkwardly:

“It’s too late now… Yae-san must have known this, so she said it without reservation…”

"It is also."

After giving a concise affirmation, Yae Wudi nodded heavily, "Chief Naise said that our tactics are not complicated. Chief Kitahara will definitely be able to figure out a way to crack them after hearing them, so he told us to keep it secret."

"But Chief Naise said that it's not necessary after the competition, especially after the second match, because Chief Kitahara will probably understand, and it won't make any difference whether you say it or not."

She looked at her trainer Di Ye Yixing again, "Master just happened to say that I can say it, and the competition is about to start, so I said yes."

"What a good and obedient child."

Looking at Yae Invincible with interest, Maruzenski nodded with a smile. Just as he was about to say something else, the Ludor Symbol, who had been silently thinking beside him, suddenly spoke.

"So, if we know about the tactics of the Beyond Team in advance, how will Chief Kitahara respond?"

Staring at Kitahara, Lu Duo said in a symbolic voice: "For example, the Wakaba Tournament that is about to take place."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Beiyuan, and Beiyuan did not hesitate at all.

"Then let's just go head-on."

He said with a firm tone: "Chief Naise's tactics are simply to reduce all tactics to zero and fight with strength. Xiaowan is not without strength."

"It's true that Sakura Chiyo is good at escaping and is a bit faster than Xiao Wan, but don't forget that Xiao Wan has excellent endurance. She only used her endurance for tactics before. Who says she can't use it for speed?"

"Use endurance for speed?" xN.

For a moment, the room was filled with questions. Lu Duo was the fastest to respond. After a moment of confusion, his eyes lit up and he asked directly:

"Chief Kitahara means... to speed up in advance?"

"Yes."

Nodding calmly, looking back at the Ludo symbol, then at Maruzenski, Kitahara calmly analyzed: "Generally speaking, most horse girls will use their energy to accelerate in the final 200 to 400 meters."

"I've watched the competition between President Luduo and President Maruzen many times. Given their strength, both of them actually accelerated at this distance. President Luduo has better endurance and can choose to start accelerating at 400 meters. President Maruzen is too fast and it seems that his speed has not changed much throughout the race. In fact, he accelerated at around 200 meters."

"If I remember correctly, in a big prize race like the Asahi Cup, President Maruzen would speed up again at the 200-meter mark to ensure a sure win."

Rudo and Maruzenski looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

“Yes, my racing habit is to gradually accelerate and overtake continuously before the fourth turn. Even my field can be felt in this situation.”

Acknowledging Kitahara's statement, Luduo also used the domain as evidence, "Maruzen is the same. She also discovered by chance that even if she is ahead by a large margin, she will still feel the presence of the domain if she accelerates again after about 200 meters."

"It's hard to imagine, Chief Kitahara," she sighed again:
"The video footage back then wasn't very clear, but you can tell from it when we accelerated, especially Maruzen. You know, as you said, trainers with lower skills may not be able to tell when she accelerated. Most people either thought she was running at a constant speed or that she accelerated throughout the whole race."

Kitahara had already guessed the timing of the two legendary horse girls' domains being triggered, so he wasn't surprised when he heard this. He just reaffirmed his guess. As for the method of judging past videos, he felt it was very simple.

“The video is indeed a bit old, but it can still be analyzed frame by frame, combined with the completion data, three-wave data, etc. This is not difficult for our team.”

After briefly explaining some of Yongshi's analysis methods, Beiyuan changed the subject and talked about Xiao Haiwan.

"And for someone with that level of endurance, the chances of accelerating are not limited to 400 meters."

He took a deep breath and said with some emotion, "Through our daily training and analysis, we can be absolutely sure that she can accelerate at least 600 meters before the finish line."

"She can even speed up in the middle of the game and keep speeding up until the end."

“She has the ability.”

"If Oguruma has a monster-level stamina, then Bay has a monster-level stamina. Based on stamina alone, she deserves the word 'super' in her name."

When saying this, Kitahara's mind not only thought of the small bay, but also thought of the figures of the other two long-distance kings and similar tactics.

Mejiro McQueen and the Golden Ship.

At the Emperor's Spring Viewing Contest in 1992, Mejiro McQueen, who was preparing to achieve his second consecutive championship in the Emperor's Spring Viewing Contest, met the Emperor of the East Sea, who had won 7 games in a row since his debut.

Facing the East Sea Emperor who was already a national idol and the most popular at the time, Mejiro McQueen gained the second most popular after a long time. That match was also called the "TM Showdown of the Century" and received great attention.

It was in that much-anticipated race that Mejiro McQueen began a long sprint at the fourth turn, and with his absolute endurance advantage as a long-distance champion, he kept ahead of the East China Sea Emperor, and ultimately won with an absolute advantage of 3 lengths, achieving the first consecutive championships in the Emperor's Spring Viewing Championships in history.

Just as exciting and using the same tactics as Mejiro McQueen's consecutive championships was the Arima Memorial match where the Golden Ship defeated 1-15 against .

In that race, Golden Ship left the gate late and fell behind all its competitors, but it began to accelerate over a long distance on the outer track with 800 meters to the finish line, and then accelerated again in the last 100 meters after crossing the slope, widening the gap with the momentum of a battleship, leading the second place Blue Ocean by 1 and 1/2 lengths, becoming the second Ashima horse after Oguruma and the third to dominate the Arima Kinen.

This is the advantage of long-distance overlords in terms of endurance. As long as the distance is enough, ultra-long distance and ultra-long time acceleration can not only lock in victory, but also continuously put more and more pressure on the opponent.

As for the experiences of Mejiro McQueen and the Golden Ship, Ludo symbolized that they naturally didn't know. After all, one of these two horse girls was still in the elementary department and had not made her debut, and the other one was probably still a real "Little Golden Ship", or a little loli, in the current timeline, and neither of them had any competition experience.

However, for the experienced legendary horse racing ladies, it is not difficult to understand Kitahara's words based on their experience in various competitions.

"So in this race, if Xiao Haiwan could choose to accelerate in advance, even if it was only from 600 meters, Sakura Chiyo's chances of winning would be much lower."

Having run with Sakura Chiyoou before and recently been involved in the training of the Eternal Team, Maruzenski, who knows both sides of the horse girls well enough, said first:

"Because the most feared thing for a fleeing horse girl is the sound of footsteps getting faster and faster behind her. That kind of pressure is likely to make Prince Chiyo lose his composure and lose speed prematurely."

"And with the capabilities of Little Bay, we can definitely do this."

Lu Duo also agreed: "Yes, although I am not used to sprinting around 600 meters, but at 400 meters, I can still feel the pressure from my opponents, especially when I keep surpassing them."

"Unfortunately……"

She shook her head regretfully again, "If Chief Kitahara had discovered Chief Naise's arrangement earlier, the battle in Little Bay wouldn't have been so difficult, but..."

After hearing this, everyone on the Yongshi team, except Beiyuan, looked as if their joy had turned into sorrow.

Mejiro Aldan and the others had just listened to Kitahara, Rudo Yushi and Maruzenski analyzing the advantages of Kobayashi. They became more and more excited as they listened, and in their joy, they even forgot that the game was about to begin. No matter how much they analyzed now, they would not be able to tell Kobayashi, Yusuhara and the others who were far away in the Hanshin Stadium.

"...Yes, if I had known this earlier, I would have had a better chance of winning this match..."

After realizing it was a little too late, Shining Glory gradually withdrew his previous joy. With a bitter face, he looked at the phone that he had forgotten to put away, and put it back in his pocket with a sigh, "But now, it seems that I can only hope that Xiao Haiwan, Yuhara and others can find this."

"It seems that this is the only way..." Kyoko Miyamura and Ardan looked at each other and sighed with a wry smile. Ardan looked at Kitahara and was about to ask something when he suddenly realized that the latter was staring at the display screen in the room and couldn't help but look over.

"Ah! We were so busy chatting that the Wakaba Championship is about to begin!" After seeing clearly what happened on the screen, she couldn't help but exclaimed.

Now, everyone's attention was shifted to the screen, and at the same time, exciting commentary came from the speakers.

"The Spring Championship has concluded at the Zhongshan Arena. In the first round of the much-anticipated 'Eternity vs. Beyond' match, Mejiro Aldan took the first victory!"

"Right now, the second round of competition is about to begin at the Hanshin Stadium. The horse girls have gradually entered the gates, including Super Xiaowan from the Eternal Team and Sakura Chiyo from the Transcendence Team!"

"It is obvious that the competition between the two teams has affected the two horse girls. They are ranked first and second in popularity respectively. Their gates are also very close, at the 3rd and 5th gates."

"Coincidentally, both of them have performed wonderful escapes before, so will this competition be an exciting escape showdown?!"

"let us wait and see!"

As soon as the commentary reached this point, members of the Eternal Team, including Shining Glory, could not help but exclaim in surprise.

"Don't compete with Prince Chiyo for the escape position! If you do that, you will be at a disadvantage!" X3.

Ludo symbol and Maruzenski also frowned slightly.

"I hope Xiaowan is aware of Sakura Chiyo's tactics just like Chief Kitahara is. If not..."

Luduo seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Maruzenski frowned and continued, "Then she is using her own weakness to attack the enemy's strength. This match... is extremely dangerous."

Inside the house, on the Beyond Team's side, Di Ye Yixing and Xiao Nei Zhong were both relatively silent characters. They had been taciturn before, and now they stared at Gate No. 5 on the screen without saying a word.

Yae Wudi also stared at the gate, staring at the figure with short light red hair.

"Chiyo-sama..." She murmured silently.
