Uma Musume: From Being Knocked Ten Meters Away

Chapter 145: The Slope Like a Fish in Water

Like a chaotic prologue, in the short ten seconds when the gates were open, eighteen figures shot towards the runway like arrows shot from a bow, interweaving with each other everywhere in the swiftness.

The sunlight shattered into spots of light in the collision between horseshoes and turf. More than 100,000 pairs of eyes in the stands turned into more than 100,000 high-speed cameras, excitedly and nervously capturing every conflict.

The team lined up in a row was visibly being flattened, and dirt and grass debris kept flying from the inside.

After the fastest few figures, shallow plowed furrows were clearly visible on the ground.

Moving forward at a high speed, Northern Xuanju was secretly glad in his heart.

Just as the predecessors and Yasui Makoto said, the Japanese derby is indeed unique.

She couldn't see or grasp all the details on the field, but she could tell from her peripheral vision and hearing that the battle inside was quite intense.

If we get involved as before, regardless of whether we can win the game, we will definitely not be able to get out easily in a short time.

Fortunately... Fortunately, I took advantage of everyone's attention to run out in one breath.

After feeling relieved, he glanced left and right again, and finally fixed his eyes on the first bend in front of him.

However, the outsiders are still at a huge disadvantage, and...

Entering the corner immediately.

Entering a turn with a slope...

"We are about to enter the extremely difficult first turn!"

The commentator's voice rose several degrees.

“After Northern Xuanju, No. 15 Susan Muse also found the opportunity to break through the crowd and is now in 4th place.

“The leader is still Ribbon Triumph. This horse racing girl clearly wants to take the lead.

"Followed closely by Tagano Coffee No. 18, Northern Black Horse No. 3, and Susan Muse No. 4.

"Four runners formed the vanguard, leading the massive center group as they charged uphill towards the first bend!
"Oh?! Northern Xuanju player has sped up!"

On the track, Beibu Xuanju couldn't help but feel excited.

Perhaps he was influenced by Yasui Zhen, or perhaps, as he said, he had a talent for extreme stunts.

In short, no matter which kind of training she compared it to, extreme stunts were the one she was most interested in and the one she could get the hang of the fastest.

Running 90 degrees perpendicular to the wall is no longer a problem for her. Although it is just horizontal running, after training for so long, she feels that she has become the same as Yasui Zhen's joking comparison.

Why don't you try to get the association to move the Japanese Derby track to the wall? You really are born for extreme stunts. Wall running is like... yes, just like a fish swimming in water.

She really felt like she was swimming in training and at this moment.

Swim on the ramp called "Japanese Derby".

Not just swimming.

Gradient acceleration, arc positioning, changing feet in the air...

Through day after day of training, each skill has been ingrained into his bones.

If extreme stunts allow her to be at ease on sloped curves, coupled with those techniques, she has more "fins" than other "fish".

While experiencing this wonderful feeling, several figures in front of the left were getting closer and closer in my sight.

"Northern Black Horse... Northern Black Horse's running posture is very special. She keeps her body very low."

The commentator's voice sounded a little surprised.

“There was news before the game that she had undergone special training, and it seems that this is the result of her special training.

"She was cutting inside at full speed, and it turned out that she had given up the competition at the start for this moment.

"Ribbon Clicquot's lead has narrowed...

“No, not yet!

"Sensing the pursuit of the Northern Black Horse, Ribbon Triumph increased its speed again, widening the gap once again!

"The other opponents are not going to give up their positions easily, and the position of the vanguard has not changed... No!
“The speed is very fast, the team is very fast!

"I've passed the first and second turns, and the speed for 1000 meters is 58 seconds...

"But Northern Black Horse seems to have slowed down, and she seems to have failed to successfully make the turn!

"She was in the third or fourth lap outside and is now in 5th or 6th place." She probably changed her running style for the Japanese Derby, hoping to leave the victory or defeat for the next race.

"Let's wait and see what secret skills she will have."

While the commentator focused his attention on Northern Black Horse, in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people, the black-haired girl first approached and then moved away on the curve, as if she had done something in vain and was actually lagging behind than at the beginning.

"5, 58.1?"

Te Bie Zhou gasped, "T-this speed... Even for a Japanese derby, it's too fast, right?"

"Don't talk about whether it's fast or not!"

Huang Jinchuan held on to the railing tightly, his eyes fixed on Northern Xuanju, while his peripheral vision glanced at the silent An Jingzhen.

"Isn't Xiaobei's best position the lead? Is it okay to run to that position? That's the first position, right?"

"Achuan, don't panic."

It was not Yasui Shin who responded to the golden ship, but the Emperor of the East China Sea.

With his arms folded, the Emperor of the East China Sea pursed his lips as he followed the figure of Northern Black Horse.

“It’s true that Xiaobei is best at leading, but don’t forget that she can also lead from the front, and her leading level is not bad either.

"more importantly……"

There was a glint of admiration in her eyes.

"Her rhythm...wasn't taken away."

"Rhythm...?" Golden Ship was stunned.

"That's right, Achuan, calm down."

At this time, Mebai McQueen comforted:

"In any race, we have to consider the distribution of energy. The horse girl in the lead is clearly too fast. Chasing for a temporary position is definitely not a wise choice.

"Xiaobei was not disturbed and ran at his own pace, so he was in very good condition.

"and……

"She's not necessarily giving up the lead completely."

When he said this, just like the Golden Ship just now, Mejiro McQueen looked at Yasui Shin intentionally or unintentionally.

Yasui Zhen still didn't say anything.

Holding the telescope, he moved the lens, which had been aimed at the black-haired girl, slightly forward for a moment and then focused it back again.

The second uphill climb...it's time.

Silently, he murmured.

"The competition team has formed into a long line, and the contestants are gradually stepping into the opposite straight line.

“The lead team is fully staffed, let’s confirm the positions of each player.

"The leader is still Ribbon Triumph. After the early stages of the battle, she firmly holds the first place.

“The second one is now Comet Mitte, and the third one is Subi Tsume.

"Tagano coffee, which was previously ranked second, is now fourth, and Northern Xuanju, which was previously third...

"and many more!
Entering the uphill slope again, Northern Xuanju picked up speed again and is now in 4th place...

“3rd, 2nd… overtaking!
"The one leading now is Northern Black Colt! Northern Black Colt is leading by half a horse length!

"It was amazing! They showed off their unique running style again. Northern Black Colt overtook the opponent and took the lead within just over ten seconds of entering the straight line!
“Her performance was as wonderful and surprising as a festival!
"Once again, is the festival storm that appeared at the Nakayama stadium about to spread to the Tokyo stadium in Fuchu?"

The stands erupted in cheers and applause like festive fireworks, and the East China Sea Emperor and the others, who had previously been worried, doubtful, trusting, and comforted, all breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, comforting voices were also heard from the highest and back of the stands.

"See, I told you this kid is pretty good."

He said this with comfort, and looked to his side in shock.

"Am I right, sister?"
