Prince of Tennis: Start by replicating your talent

"Me." said Kunimitsu Tezuka.

"I applied for it in order to get our first graders a chance to play in the Kanto tournament. The director agreed. If I win, he said he would help me talk to the coach and ask for me to play."

Nanchuan thought this explanation made sense.

"So you fought with Takei?"

"Correct."

"Are you sick? With your strength, you should be challenging your minister, right? If someone like Takei loses, he will just fight. There's no point in fighting him."

"Nanchuan, I'm fighting with all the third graders, not just him."

"He didn't win, and I was using my right hand. After he found out that I was left-handed, he got furious and lost control and started hitting me with his racket."

"Fortunately, I was prepared."

Nanchuan said, "I see. After all this, I still can't go on stage."

Tezuka said nothing.

Fuji was silent for a while before saying:

"The coach attaches great importance to rules and regulations, and has not yet thought of reforming them. However, I saw that she was very angry just now. Qingxue has stopped here again. In addition, this year's national competition is not held in Jingdong, and there are no recommended places..."

Fuji sighed and continued, "Besides, the Kanto Tournament is an elimination tournament with no revival rounds. Nanchuan, you were right to remind us not to come to Seigaku."

Nanchuan watched them leave, shook his head helplessly, and returned to his team.

At the beginning, Tezuka and Fuji admired the glorious history of Seigaku so much that they were determined to join.

Now, only after you have really joined and been tied up, beaten, and not punished by your opponent, will you feel disappointed.

"What did he say? Why was he beaten?" After returning to the bus, Atobe asked Minamikawa.

"That Wu Ju, no one else is so wicked."

Nanchuan remembered what Tezuka told him before he left. The reason why he challenged the second and third graders was that he wanted to be able to enter the official arena of the Kanto Tournament in this way.

It was because after he played a match with Nanchuan, he had a strong desire to play tennis in a formal competition.

He had always been a good student who followed his coach's rules, but he finally made up his mind to take on the challenge.

result...

Now it seems that his freshman year was destined to be regretful.

Atobe was in a good mood. He said, "How about digging him out? Just like we dug out Akutsu?"

Nanchuan thought about it and slapped his thigh: "Yes, this is not impossible."

But after that he lost interest.

"Humph, you want me to take action? And then you mock me for having to be beaten before I succeed?"

"No, Atobe, it's hard to say. What if someone tells him that he is the pillar of Seigaku, he will stay. He is not easy to dig."

Even if you are disappointed, it is not easy to dig.

"That's fine. Starting next year, I'll be happy to have him as my opponent. It's fine if he doesn't come."

Atobe turned around and told the guys behind him to go back and continue training.

There are still three games to go if we want to win the championship. We have to play one game at a time to have a chance. The further the game goes, the harder it will be. Naturally, everyone's nerves are not relaxed.

"Today, Akutsu beat Takei to a pulp." After giving his instructions, Atobe turned around and said to Minamikawa.

Nanchuan exclaimed: "Awesome, how did you fail? It's my fault that I was so engrossed in watching Rikkai University that I forgot the time and missed it."

He glanced at Akutsu across the aisle, who looked as if he would die if he continued to make noise.

Atobe: "Exactly, my arm is broken. The force was quite strong this time, and the one you broke last time hasn't fully recovered yet. I guess you won't be able to play tennis anymore."

Nanchuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:

"Sure, Akutsu. I just said that Takei was wicked and hit someone on the arm on purpose, but now it seems that I support you in doing this."

This is probably where double standards come from?

No, this kind of thing depends on the person. Wu Jui has really angered everyone.

And Akutsu was definitely not careless, he did it on purpose. He was just playing tennis normally, and his force was too strong, knowing that the opponent's hand would be broken if the player received the ball. He was not like Fudomine who was bad at tennis and just played violence.

Faced with such a situation where mistakes and injuries could occur on the field, the referee could not call a violation.

Akutsu ignored Nanchuan and said with a sigh: "It's so noisy."

Then Atobe said seriously, "There are quite a few people with bad tempers in our team. Well... Anyway, the coach said that he supports us to play freely, but he does not allow us to play third-rate tennis. In addition, he also banned us from the game. Everything else is easy to discuss."

Nanchuan nodded: "Don't worry, Minister Jibe, we know our limits."

……

In the next day's match, the knockout round of 8 to 4, Hyotei's opponent, which had attracted much attention, was Yamabuki Junior High School, which had advanced from the revival match in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament.

"During the Tokyo tournament, because of a mistake, the opponent bit him and suppressed him all the way. Yamabuki, who almost made it to the nationals last year, was forced to fall to the revival match, but he still made it in the end."

Oshitari took the information and reported it to everyone.

"The biggest feature of this school is doubles, which is of a certain level. And according to the information we got, this year they have trained a group of first-year doubles players. They are quite strong and are the focus of their coach's training. So, the most important thing in today's game is doubles. We must not lose."

Yue Ren on the side joked:

"It's not really that important. We have three singles aces on our team, which is enough to beat them. Their singles are so weak anyway."

But this joke did not please Sato and other third-year students who were playing doubles.

"Yue Ren, are you looking down on me, senior? We made it to the national competition. Even if those two kids are very talented and receive much training, they lack practical experience and may not be able to gain any benefit from us."

Atobe interrupted them: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, just go all out and don't underestimate the enemy just because they don't have much practical experience. Underestimating the enemy is always a fatal weakness for athletes. Hurry up and warm up."

Taro Sakaki didn't come today, and when Atobe just sat down, Yamabuki's coach Mikiya Banda turned his head and looked at him.

"Young Master, your name is Atobe Keigo, right?"

Mikiya Banda was the first to greet.

Atobe hummed, "That's right."

He didn't really want to talk to the old man because he felt uncomfortable seeing the dagger hidden in his smile.

But he noticed that when Kan'ya Banda was talking to him, his eyes were behind him.

He turned his head and saw that he was looking at Akutsu who was listening to Nanchuan talking.

"Well, isn't Akutsu-san's talent amazing? Congratulations, and thank you for making such an athletic genius willing to continue playing tennis."

Atobe clicked his tongue and said, "You kicked him out. It's really laughable to say this now."

Kan'ye Banda showed no emotion when a junior spoke to him like this, and always had a mysterious smile on his face.

"Haha, this generation of young people is just crazy."

Chapter 45 He is strong, but I don’t recognize him.

"1-0, Yamabuki leads, change of venue!"

"1-1"

"1-2"

"3-1"

...

Doubles number two Sato and his partner Mitani Hirokazu worked perfectly together, testing their opponents before launching into the attack.

"Damn it, their coordination is pretty perfect, and Potato and the others are a bit suppressed!"

The Yamabuki people began to get anxious.

"After all, they are third-year players, and they have a lot of practical experience. Don't forget that they made it to the national competition last year and were among the top four."

"I was almost blinded by the fact that their main player was a first-year. I forgot that they also had a third-year team with a veteran doubles team."

"Damn it, potato soldiers, come on!"

boom!

After Sato fought back, he made a gesture to Mitani Hirokazu. Without even saying anything, the other party understood how to cooperate with him next.

boom!

The tennis ball hit behind Yamabuki Higashio Masami and bounced out of bounds.

"Pretty!"

"1-4, switch venues!"

Take a short break.

"Senior Sato and Senior Mitani are both very good. We must win the first match and destroy their prestige. We don't recognize the so-called famous doubles school as Hyotei."

Atobe became a little proud, and this innate arrogance would never disappear from him.

Sato and the other two nodded: "Of course, this is our last year in the Ice Empire. No matter what, we can't let the first-years defeat us."

After saying this, he felt something was wrong, and then he realized that Atobe and Nanchuan were both looking at him without saying anything, so he added:

"Haha, we are opponents, and this is the knockout round, so we must not be careless."

Atobe handed them two bottles of water and said, "Well, the game isn't over yet. Victory in the first battle is crucial. Keep working hard."

The game continues.

In terms of cooperation, tacit understanding, on-the-spot reaction, ball control, etc., Satoo and Mitani Hirokazu are far better than Yamabuki's so-called "potato soldiers" combination of Higashikata Masami and Minami Kentaro, two guys who have little formal game experience.

After these few rounds, we are sure to win.

Now the fight between Higashima Masami and Minami Kentaro is becoming more and more difficult.

The tacit understanding between the two of them has been broken.

"2-5!"

The game soon came to Hyotei's match point.

The outcome is almost certain at this point.

"In the doubles match of the first grade, is this Bantian Kan also trying to use some kind of deception strategy? Not really, after all, Yamabuki's singles is really unbearable to watch."

Nanchuan glanced at the old coach Bantian Mikiya diagonally opposite him.

Although he seemed to be smiling and not affected by the inevitable defeat, Nanchuan still saw a flash of regret in his eyes.

"It's no problem to activate the first-years, that's a good thing, but our opponent is Hyotei. No matter if they are first-years or third-years, we won't let them score so easily. This old man still made a mistake."

Nanchuan turned around and asked Akutsu:

"Coach Mikiya Banda seems to want to say hello to you. Are you sure you don't want to respond?"

He had also noticed that during breaks, Yamabuki's coach, Kan'ei Banda, would occasionally wave and say hello to Akutsu, but Akutsu seemed to be blind and didn't see it.

Akutsu looked at him suspiciously, and asked inexplicably annoyed:

"Who?"

Seeing that Akutsu really looked unfamiliar, Nanchuan finally realized that this guy had never paid attention to the coach of their school when he joined Yamabuki Junior High School?

He pointed at Mikiya Banda and said:

"Coach Yamabuki, you haven't seen it?"

Akutsu didn't even look at him: "Who needs to see it?"

Nanchuan: “…”

If Ban Tianqian heard this, he would probably want to vomit blood.

At the end of the game, there was no doubt that Hyotei won the doubles team.

"Coach, I'm sorry, we lost."
