Tianma? Actually, I'm a doctor!

Then almost all the horse girls rushed out of the gate at the same time!

Only at Gate No. 8 on the outer passage, a delicate, porcelain-doll-like, white-haired girl moved noticeably slower, seemingly unprepared. Or perhaps... careless? Or perhaps inexperienced?

The favored Yamato Akagi noticed that some horse girls were late, but she didn't care too much about Platinum. She just regarded her as a regular horse girl who made mistakes and failed at the critical moment.

Yamato Akagi's delicate face was filled with excitement. She accelerated after leaving the gate and rushed to the front with powerful steps.

"Okay, no more surprises!!"

The plump girl with long red hair looked at the scenery ahead, her heart surging with excitement.

Yamato Akagi is not very good at thinking about tactics. What she is good at is maintaining the leading position and then galloping to the finish line in one go!

A truly strong person doesn’t need any tactics. He should just lead the race with dignity and rush to the finish line!

In Yamato Akagi's opinion, if it was just a debut match, the only possibility of her defeat would be that she would not be able to perform to her full potential because she would be stuck behind.

But now, this is no longer possible. She has rushed to the front and will run to the finish line to win the championship!

"Senior Emperor and that Vodka guy are watching! In front of them, just winning first place and qualifying for debut is not enough!"

"You must...win beautifully!"

Yamato Akagi was full of fighting spirit. She maintained her position in the top three smoothly after the start, and her momentum did not slow down at all!

Behind Yamato Akagi, most of the participating horse girls were focusing their attention on her, regarding her as the most formidable opponent in this debut battle.

In an unnoticed corner, at the very back, there was a white-haired girl. She had never had any experience or training in a competition or even starting a race, so she didn't react at all!

By the time Platinum took her first step, she was already too late and was visibly lagging behind all the other horse girls.

"In an instant, the horse girls broke free from the gates and went into a gallop."

"The favorite to win, number four, Yamato Akagi, is truly worthy of his title as an excellent student and has already secured a strong second place!"

The commentators on the stage were suddenly surprised.

"And behind him, runner number eight, Bai Jin, seemed completely unprepared for the start. He was noticeably late, falling behind in the race shortly after the start!"

"Platinum leaning towards the outer path, coupled with Chu Chi, the situation is not optimistic for her."

This is the debut battle, and only the winner can qualify to become an official horse girl. Needless to say, its importance is self-evident.

Even in a debut match, it is rare to see such an obvious delay. From the perspective of professionals, the performance of this new pony named Platinum is like a visitor who has accidentally entered a professional competition.

The commentator's stance is to maintain neutrality, and they are often more euphemistic. When even the commentator says "the situation is not optimistic," it is enough to show how critical the situation is.

But there was no sign of panic on the pretty face of Bai Jin who was late. She was extremely calm and followed the middle group at a certain speed.

(Is this... late?)

(I remember that in the first season of the anime, Sou-chan was late.)

Platinum stared ahead, at the many horse girls, and watched the favorite to win, Yamato Akajima, who had already replaced the first place and started to take the lead before the first turn.

She was late and unprepared, so does she really have a chance against the extremely outstanding top student Yamato Akagi?

No doubts arose. Instead, at this moment, Platinum felt unprecedented calmness, and the lightness of her feet was beyond her imagination before the game.

For her, the competition might be equivalent to [going to work]. Compared to working on the Terra continent, this job is much easier now!

So, at least we should take it seriously and try our strength a little, right?

Moreover, only by winning the competition can you get a high bonus. Even if it is just for the money, you can't be too lazy.

The Kuranta girl no longer hesitated. She felt her heartbeat gradually accelerating, and a slight rise in fighting spirit rose.

"So--"

"Get ready, top student, I'm...going to start speeding up!"

When the leading Yamato Akagi is about to enter the second bend, it symbolizes that the race is about to be halfway through.

As the atmosphere gradually heated up! The next moment!!

Because of the unexpected delay, the white-haired girl who was in the last position suddenly burst out with incredible speed!

In front of Platinum, several horse girls in the middle group immediately showed surprise on their faces. From their perspective, they could already see the approaching figure of the late Kuranta girl from behind.

This means that the gap between them is already very small!

"Gu...it's obviously Chuchi's [Chasing Horse]."

"Is this guy crazy? There are monsters like Yamato Akagi in this battle, and he dares to speed up so early?"

"This guy who can't even exit the gate will definitely run out of stamina and stall. We can't let her mess up our rhythm."

"Didn't her trainer teach her the rhythm of the gate and the race?"

The expressions of the several horse racing girls were different, and it was obvious that they were all shocked.

Even though they are all new horse girls who have not officially debuted yet, I have never seen such horse girls in the many competitions I have known about in the past!

You know... that's the way to chase a horse!

……

5. Suspense! Platinum vs. Yamato Akagi?!

There are four different ways for horse girls to run in the competition, namely [Escape Horse], [Ahead], [Lack of Horses] and [Chase Horses].

The fleeing horse is the one that takes the lead, galloping and shining as one of the best leaders. The current Yamato Akagi is just like this.

The vanguard is the first echelon following closely behind the fleeing horse, staying in the front group and then seizing the opportunity to rush out.

The trailing horse is to stay in the middle of the group and have enough explosive power, but it needs to conserve a certain amount of physical strength until the last moment, when it bursts out with a powerful last kick, and then surpasses all enemies in front in a very short time.

The first three running methods are the most common, reasonable and normal running methods, and most horse racing girls choose one of them.

Only the last horse-chasing running method can be called the rarest and most special, because the position of the horse girl in this running method is even further back than that of the horse girl in the horse-chasing running method!

Therefore, usually only the horse girls who fail to start or start late will be forced to chase. Chasing horses is the last position, which is a great test of explosive power, physical strength and even power.

Therefore, this is a run that is extremely challenging for the Uma Musume herself and extremely difficult to win, but it also has the strongest visual impact. Only by achieving the biggest reversal of the situation can victory be achieved! This is a crazy and shocking run that no audience will not love!

And now, the favorite Yamato Akagi has completely taken the lead as the escape horse and occupied the first throne; while the late and unfavored Kuranta Girl Platinum has finally started to exert her strength as the chasing horse in the last seat.

Under the stunned and astonished gazes of the several horse-riding girls in the middle group, the accelerating Platinum arrived beside them the next moment!

It was too fast! Too fast to react!

The white-haired girl who seemed so fragile that she would break at the slightest touch actually surpassed the Cha Ma Group in an instant.

That shining light was enough to tear apart everything in front of it, and began to shine brightly on the field in the name of platinum!

And, he began to move forward continuously until he took the lead, Yamato Akagi!

-----------------------------------

"Incredible! It's incredible!"

"The platinum runner, who had fallen behind due to being late, now galloped fearlessly!"

"Before the third turn, she had already overtaken the poor horse group and was in fifth place, and she was still accelerating!"

"It seems that Platinum is not worried about the risk of stalling due to the loss of physical strength. His sword is pointed at the Yamato Akagi in the front!"

The voice of the commentator became even higher in pitch and a little excited.

The chasing horse, which is already relatively rare and difficult to win, actually started to accelerate so early!

Starting late and being at the back of the field, as the only chasing horse, even if there is a big gap between you and the first place, you shouldn't accelerate so early, right?

This debut race is over a thousand meters long, which is often a big test for new horse racing girls. Accelerating so quickly is bound to consume a lot of physical energy!

From the commentators to the majority of the audience, everyone was filled with such questions, and was aroused with curiosity and excitement.

At the same time, their attention finally shifted away from Yamato Akagi, who was leading the pace at the front.

The platinum moment of Kuranta Girls...is it about to happen?

"Eh? You actually... dare to speed up so early?"

Vodka, who was sitting in the front row of the audience, glanced sideways slightly. Even she, who was paying attention to her arch-rival Yamato Akagi, couldn't help but look at Shirogane seriously.

After all, a chasing horse that accelerates so early... is extremely rare.

"Could it be that her physical strength is good enough to handle a 2,000-meter middle-distance race?"

The Emperor of the East China Sea standing by couldn't help but become suspicious.

If he didn't have the ability to handle 2,000 meters, it would be impossible for him to be late in his debut race of more than 1,000 meters and then accelerate early with such confidence.

But for the extremely young newcomer Uma Musume...is this really possible?

Is it confidence born of strength, or arrogance born of ignorance? His opponent is Yamato Akagi, the leader of the next generation.

"Platinum... who on earth is this little guy?"

"You're clearly a complete amateur in everything from your start, pace, to your rhythm, yet you dare to speed up like this?"

Even the Emperor of the East Sea, who was a senior who debuted a long time ago and should not have much interest in future generations, showed an interested expression.

Is this some long-dormant monster poised to suddenly strike, or is it simply a clueless fool?

-----------------------------------

"It seems... unexpectedly easy."

After the third bend, Miss Tianma was already feeling a little surprised.

It was unexpected, but it was like enjoying a dessert on a hot summer day, and my mood became happy, calm and composed.

In front of her are the horse racing ladies who are ahead, and the gap is getting closer and closer!

Bai Jin thought that since it was his first time competing and he had never had any training, he would have a hard time facing professional and well-trained opponents, so he was not very motivated at the beginning and did not even take the exit seriously.

Unexpectedly, the speed she maintained after leaving Chi surpassed many opponents. If she continued to accelerate, the only powerful enemy she would have to face would be... Yamato Akagi in the front!

The most important thing was, even at this speed, Platinum didn't feel the strain of exhaustion, the pain in his lungs, or the strain on his legs! Could the strength and endurance contained within this body of his be so strong?

This was the second day since I transformed into Platinum. I hadn't understood the competition at all, and I had just started running recklessly... yet I didn't feel tired at all, and even felt surprisingly relaxed?!

Could it be that the [Kuranta Girl Platinum David Xinteleya] she transformed into is actually very powerful?

As an archer who is good at bows and arrows, he actually has great potential in running!

For the first time, a trace of excitement arose in the heart of the lazy white-haired girl. She wanted to get serious and see how far she could run.

A rare interest was aroused. After all, the opponent was Yamato Akagi, a powerful enemy who had a lot of roles in the Umamusume anime and was definitely full of potential.

If we can really defeat Yamato Akagi...

The so-called unparalleled triple crown of epic legend may have a chance!

Bai Jin immediately gave up thinking and focused on the upcoming final moment. Her clear and leisurely emerald green eyes became sharper and completely locked onto the red figure in front.

The next moment, the girl named Bai Jin seemed to turn into an arrow from a bow! She rushed forward with an unstoppable momentum!

What is even more incredible is that from that white-haired girl who looks petite, soft and even cute, there is an indescribable and amazing aura bursting out.

It was as if a monster made of momentum had transformed into a human form and was galloping freely on the field!

She was supposed to be a bow assassin, but she displayed an aura and speed that seemed to be so powerful that it didn't belong to this world. Even though the horse racing girls ahead of her were gritting their teeth and trying their best not to be caught up, it was no use!

A flood and a beast seemed to be coming straight at them from behind!

"Oyster... a monster of this level... why would it appear at the debut competition?"

"So strong, is it my illusion? How come her oppressive feeling is no less than that of Yamato Akagi?"

"These are the kind of opponents you'd only see in big-money tournaments on TV. Why did I run into two of them at the same time?"

"My steps seem to be getting heavier, as if I'm being targeted by a flood monster, Oyster!!"

The horse girls who were ahead stared with their eyes wide open. No matter how unwilling they were, they could only watch as the silver-white light reached their side... without any hesitation or hesitation, they threw it away in one fell swoop!

In an instant, the huge racecourse was filled with excitement, and the spectators who came for Yamato Akagi also completely recognized the power of the late-race horse girl Platinum!

Next!

Even the commentator's voice became louder and louder, expressing his amazement.

"It's incredible that the intensity of this debut match can be so astonishing."
