In crossover anime, who isn't a childhood friend?

Yang sighed, her sadness genuine: "So I checked, and Yukino is still using the same size as when she was in sixth grade."

"Hey, you... Even if Yukino is your sister, she should still have her own privacy."

After saying this, Shika realized that she had been sneaking into Chiya's room whenever she had the chance to secretly check her recent diary entries.

He immediately seemed a little guilty.

Fortunately, Yang Nai was looking straight ahead, preoccupied with worry for her younger sister, and therefore did not notice anything unusual.

"I didn't do anything. Besides, do you think Shika wouldn't know Rokka's exact size?"

"I know that's because I do the laundry for my family most of the time."

"Well, I just happened to glance at the tag on the underwear she put in the laundry basket when Yukino went to take a bath."

"Your seemingly unintentional act is actually quite deliberate."

Despite Toka's complaints, Haruno didn't think it was a big deal.

She and Yukino, the two sisters, are bound by blood. They bathed and slept together countless times when they were little, and their mother would occasionally join in.

What does it matter now that we only know the specific size of her bra?

Just then, a passerby walked by, and since their conversation was somewhat private, Yang leaned close to Toka's ear and asked, "By the way, what size is Rikka now...?"

Toka felt incredibly ashamed to discuss such a topic in broad daylight, but seeing that her friend seemed genuinely worried about it, she understood that her friend wanted to make a horizontal comparison between Yukino and Rikka, who were the same age. So, she suppressed her embarrassment and answered her question quietly.

“Eh…” Upon hearing this, Haruno sighed heavily again: “Rikka, this is the level that a junior high school student should have.”

Seeing her reaction, Toka became even more puzzled and curious, so she leaned close to Yukino's ear and asked, "Then who exactly is Yukino...?"

Yang Naihui whispered in Shihua's ear to answer.

The next moment, Shihua blurted out, "No way, does that mean we can just wear a tank top..."

She immediately stopped herself from speaking, because although it was true, it was still impolite, though her expression still showed surprise.

After Yang Nai solemnly nodded to indicate that this was indeed the case, Toka's expression slowly changed from surprise to pity.

Regardless, that was indeed far behind his peers, at the level of sitting at the same table as elementary school students.

“I used to be able to joke about this with Yukino, and I found it quite amusing to see her trying so hard to pretend she didn’t care at all when she clearly cared about it…”

"You're such a monster."

"I already said that was in the past. I will never bring it up again now, otherwise I feel like Yukino will hate and be hostile towards me in a minute. But both my mother and I are pretty good. She shouldn't be like this no matter what."

Yang Nai remained puzzled by this.

Shihua thought for a moment and then gave her advice.

"Let her eat more nutritious food, maybe she can catch up slowly later."

"For now, we can only maintain an optimistic outlook. Oh, by the way, the weather is gradually getting warmer. Let's go swimming in a few days. My dad's friend recently opened a trial operation for an indoor swimming pool. There aren't many people yet, and the environment inside is quite nice."

"Oh, really?"

Shi Hua seemed somewhat tempted.

Since leaving the gymnastics club, apart from practicing yoga at home and occasionally going out shopping with family and friends, she hasn't had any other noteworthy activities.

Yang Nai's suggestion hit the nail on the head, so she nodded: "Sure, I'll be pretty free during spring break anyway."

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll invite Yukino along too. I'm a little curious about what kind of swimsuit she'll wear. She can probably fit into one-piece swimsuits from elementary school now."

"...You really are a devil. I'm telling you, are you really Yukino's older sister?"

"Haha, just kidding."

"Yang Nai, do you usually keep a diary?"

"A diary? I vaguely remember having one when I was in first or second grade, but I lost that habit after my mom made me study hard and I had to take all sorts of extra classes. Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly found my diary a few days ago and it made me feel a little nostalgic."

I did find a diary, but it wasn't mine.

Yang Nai seemed very curious.

"Really? Show it to me later."

"These are all embarrassing things, how could I possibly show them to you?"

"What does it matter? I'm not going to laugh at you."

"Damn... Ah, Chiyo is kicking her legs, I guess I need to change her diaper."

"Toka, you've always been quite adept at changing the subject..."

March 19th.

The Neon Kendo Jade Dragon Flag Tournament was held as scheduled.

The competition brought together more than 300 universities across the country, with over 500 teams in total, divided into male and female groups, to compete fiercely for the overall championship in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

As for the rules, Yuan Qianye was very familiar with them, having participated in this event once before.

Although the competition is conducted in five-person teams, the teams are divided into forwards, second forwards, center forwards, vice-generals, and generals.

But all you need to know is that once you're on the field, you just need to keep winning.

As the strongest player in the Kendo Club of Chuanlan Middle School, without exception, he naturally sat in the position of general.

On the first day of the competition, the girls' team of Kawarai Junior High School unfortunately lost to the girls' team of Daiko Junior High School in Kanagawa Prefecture in their first match.

They ended up with a one-day tour of the competition, and the five of them couldn't even defeat the opponent's mid-level players. It was a very embarrassing defeat, and they had absolutely no gaming experience.

As expected, without Saeko Busujima as the backbone of the team, they couldn't accomplish anything.

The fact that Chuanlan Middle School won the Yulongqi Girls' Championship last year was clearly a sham, was all too obvious at this moment.

After the competition, several girls from the kendo club huddled together with red eyes. It took the teachers and other boys who were with the team a long time to comfort them and help them recover their spirits.

They also channeled this spirit into motivation to cheer on the men's team.

The boys' team from Chuanlan Middle School lived up to expectations, winning all the matches on the first day and advancing to the finals on the second day.

Yuan Qianye, who was responsible for covering the losses, has once again delivered an amazing performance this year.

Actually, it was mainly his effort that allowed them to overcome all obstacles and win so smoothly.

From the perspective of the audience, it seemed as if he had a precognitive eye, able to predict his opponent's movements in advance, swinging his bamboo sword to the designated position first, and then almost simultaneously causing his opponent to collide with his bamboo sword, thus naturally scoring a point.

So elegant, so incredibly elegant.

This kind of match, which seemed to be a two-way race as if it had been rehearsed in advance, while Gen Chiyo's leisurely performance was very elegant, did lack a bit of entertainment value.

However, to professionals in the field of Kendo, it is clear that this is a sign of a huge improvement in Minamoto Chiyo's Kendo skills.

Yuan Qianye was actually a little worried.

In the time leading up to the competition, he made several trips to Saeko's house to practice swordsmanship with her. In each instance, without exception, he would end up practicing in her room.

And it was always Saeko who took the initiative.

Yuan Qianye felt that this was not right, but she was so enthusiastic, and her eyes and body revealed her desire, so he simply couldn't refuse.

Such a careless preparation process inevitably made him feel somewhat uncertain.

Fortunately, his physical condition has improved over the past year, and his kendo has improved significantly, reaching LV7 level. This year, his appearance will be much easier than last year.

While it's not to say they have no equal, they are certainly close.

Anyway, he barely broke a sweat during the first day of the competition.

Then, when the finals started the next day, he finally felt a little better and barely managed to warm up.

The Yulongqi competition has become an event that junior high and high school students can participate in together, thanks to previous rule reforms.

However, due to physical limitations, high school students still held an absolute advantage in the competition, so the finals on the second day were almost entirely composed of teams from high schools.

However, apart from the Kawara Men's Kendo Club led by Gen Chiya, a few other strong middle school teams also made it into the finals.

The next middle school team was someone Yuan Qianye had dealt with once before, so they weren't exactly unfamiliar to him.

"Red wins!"

The referee on the field raised a small flag.

The vice-captain of Chuanlan Middle School walked off the field dejectedly.

He apologized to Yuan Qianye, but Yuan Qianye smiled and didn't care. He patted him on the shoulder, offered a few words of comfort, and then left the stage.

"Osaka Kaigao Middle School, Hattori Heiji!

Matchup -

Tokyo Kawaii Junior High School, Minamoto Chiya!

The referee on the field announced the results of the match between the two players.

Following his instructions, Yuan Qianye half-squatted down and bowed to the opposing player.

Through the gaps in the mask, he could see his former opponent, whose eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit.

There was no small talk on the field, otherwise Yuan Qianye felt that he would have really wanted to say something to him.

To be fair, Hattori Heiji is actually very strong, otherwise he wouldn't have met him in the finals of the previous National Junior High School Kendo Championship.

If he hadn't faced me in this competition, he might have gone much further.

But unfortunately, there's no "what if".

Yuan Qianye gripped the bamboo sword in his hand, and at the referee's command to start, he shot out like a cheetah.

"White wins!"

When facing Hattori Heiji, Minamoto Chiya became slightly more serious.

But they only took it a little seriously and won the game easily.

As she bowed, Gen Chiya heard Hattori Heiji sigh.

The match continued, and Hattori Heiji was the fourth vice-captain to appear in Osaka Kaifang Middle School, with a captain following him.

However, in Minamoto no Chiya's opinion, this more robust general was actually weaker than Hattori Heiji in overall strength.
