[Net King] The Crown of Tennis

Another midsummer, Kanagawa began to rain lightly, and the weather in Tokyo was fine. The opening ceremony of the Junior High School National Tennis Tournament was held in an indoor stadium in Yuming Tennis Park.

Teams from all over the country entered the venue one by one.

Li Hai's order was at the end. Sanada held the pennant and turned to see Yukimura walking to the end of the line: "Yukimura?"

"The view here is very good."

"You are the minister." What Liu didn't say was: You should also take the pennant.

"Xingcun..." Out of emotion and reason, "Son of God", King Lihai No.1 shouldn't be at the end of the team.

Sanada hurriedly walked towards the end of the team, wanting to give the pennant to Yukimura: "You are Li Hai's minister, the national competition—"

"Go back." He ordered simply.

Sanada stood where he was, and the main candidates all looked at Yukimura. Even the minister had to give an explanation.Yukimura had no choice but to say, "It's too troublesome to stand in the first place. I want to see the members of other teams."

Two reasons are not convincing.But no one could hold back Yukimura, the staff in front of the command was already urging, Sanada had no choice but to go back, led by the cheerleader Miya with the school card.

When Li Hai appeared on the stage, the whispers on the field became even more noisy. It was strange that Sanada was the deputy minister, but he handed over the winning pennant. They couldn't help but wonder if Yukimura hadn't recovered yet.Atobe saw that Yukimura was at the end of the team, and his face was not very good. [What the hell are you thinking?With so many reporters present, is it possible that there are too many debts? ]

Yukimura was also scanning the reporters and managers on the sidelines. The camera was recording. It was not the first time he had experienced this, but his mood was somewhat different after all. [National competition. ]

His arena... [Ha, shouldn't have thought about that. ]

At the end of the team, and in the middle of all the teams, Yukimura can basically have an overview of the overall situation.The person in charge in front of the stage was speaking, but he couldn't pay attention, and was busy matching the characters with the information shown one by one.

[By the way, if Chitose-kun joins Sitianbao Temple, if you can meet him, it will be more difficult than a year ago. ]

When Yukimura really noticed Echizen Ryoma, he still felt incredible.

[This kind of physical advantage, Genichiro, how did you lose? ]

Country One and Country Three are completely different.Even if it was him, the country didn't dare to be big for a while, and wanted to take off the weight and compete with the master Fujiwara who was two years older.How did Echizen compete with Sanada in the screen recording?Psychological warfare?I can't see it, it's just fighting head-on, and Sanada didn't even use the word "drag", which is even more difficult to understand.

"...Then, I announce that the Junior High School National Tennis Tournament is officially open!"

In Li Hai's first bye, everyone gathered around Yukimura.

"Who are we going to watch the game?"

"Ice Emperor's opponent is not strong, so it's meaningless to think about it." This is Kuwahara who carefully read all the information.

"Then let's see if it's better on both sides?"

"Hikachu." Yukimura made a final decision, "The team from Okinawa will win this year from Kyushu, defeating the powerful Shishi Lezhong."

"Sounds pretty inspiring."

"There are so many dark horses this year."

"In fact, every year there will be rising school teams." Liu took out his notebook and prepared to watch the game records, "Some were very prosperous for a while and gradually fell into disrepair due to lack of success; some were mediocre but had very stable results; The ups and downs depend on whether the students are of high quality; some have sprung up but have no successors.”

"Junior high school team competitions can be updated much faster than professional competitions." Yukimura smiled lightly, touched the school logo on his left chest, "Lihai is unique."

"Yes."

When the group arrived, Qingxue was cheering for Liujiazhong on the other side, and the two teams were returning to the field to prepare for the singles match.

"Last year's No. [-] in the country, Lihai, is here." The wooden hand pushed the glasses, "It's a good momentum."

"We're not in the same half as Li Hai, are we?" Jia Fei snorted coldly.

After the 1.9-meter-three Chinenkuan and Aoi "harmoniously" communicated on the field, the game began.

"The action is acceptable."

"Have martial arts skills." Sanada saw it.

"Okinawa martial arts." Liu explained, "Integrating martial arts into tennis, the attack method is more unpredictable than ordinary people."

"Minister Eishiro Kite, brought together gifted youngsters who have practiced martial arts since childhood. The most notable feature of their style of play is that their footwork is not consistent with the normal footwork of tennis, and it is faster."

"The transition was quick." Marui was watching Chinen's performance, "However, it's not flexible enough."

"Inexperienced in tennis matches." Nioh twitched his pigtails, "Achilles heel."

The field quickly progressed to singles one, and Higa took the lead in the first four games.

"Saeki-san is not bad, last until [4-3]."

"He hasn't seen the opponent's footwork yet, I guess... eh?" The grandfather of the Liujiazhong coach, who was explaining Higa's ground-shrinking method, was hit by a tennis ball and fell to the ground.

"Tsk." Yukimura frowned, feeling displeased, "Let's go." No one in Lihai said anything, and they all followed.

"Is the old man with the white beard all right?" Kirihara was a little worried. The tennis still hurts, although he must have encountered "flying disasters" on the side of the court all year round.

"Don't worry, the group in Hexagon must be much more anxious than you." Marui stretched out his hand, just about to put it on Kirihara's shoulder, but retracted, "Shall we go to training now?"

"Find an empty venue and do some activities." Probably except Yukimura, everyone was simmering with anger. They eagerly hoped that the first round of competition would show Lihai's previous demeanor and teach the provocateur a lesson.

The reputation of Liuliqiu Middle School Tennis Club is famous in Aichi Prefecture for its arrogance and bad mouth.Last year's achievement of reaching the top eight in the country made them so proud that they swelled to the sky.

So when it fell, it was extremely painful.

Kuwahara was extremely serious when he played. Of course, he couldn't use his defensive power like he did with his partners.

"That's why Jack-kun should be practiced in singles." Yagyu saw that Kuwahara scored with a forehand slam again, "It's the first time I saw him hit so hard."

"By the way, Senior Nioh, don't you prepare?"

"Prepare for what? I need to prepare for the level of the opposite party?" Niwang felt that it was a waste to play psychological games with the people in Liuliqiu, and it was very demeaning.

[gamesetandmatch,wonbyRikkaidai6-0]

Marui jumped up and bounced a few times, took the pat to the coach's bench: "Let's go."

"15 minutes and 27 seconds, well played Jack."

"Yes." Kuwahara didn't turn on the heat, there was only a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, which disappeared after wiping his hands.

"Good job, Jack."

"Come on, Mrs. Wen." The two clapped their hands.

Yukimura looked at the two front and back tables standing in front of him, put his hands in front of his knees: "It's easy?" [Do you still dare to play? ]

"Not interested." [Dare not dare. ]

"Don't worry, Yukimura." [Masaharu can't play even if he dares. ] He was watching from the net.

"One game determines the outcome, Lihai Renwang will start first."

Marui walked to the frontcourt: "It was agreed in advance, if you want water, then I will take it in front of the net."

"The sun is a bit big, piyo." [End quickly. ]

[15: 0]

"Hey, do you look down on us?" God became annoyed at the two's ignorance, and then continued to be treated as air.

"Okay, then I'm too lazy to perform my genius skills."

"What's the show? There's no audience anyway." Nioh scored an Ace with the serve, "The weather is really hot."

Nioh thought about using Yukimura's technique of "destroying the five senses", and he could easily do it against Liuliqiu's level, but firstly, this is not a single, and secondly, he didn't want to waste time and energy on these people.Well, I just didn't do it anyway.

Marui spent his energy. He repeatedly hit close shots to intimidate him, flat shots and pumping shots at the net, even though his strength was ranked last two in Lihai's main selection, unresponsive speed and invisible spin It still makes the two people who catch the ball panic and even fear, which is manifested in their heartbeats that have never slowed down and their frequent gasps.

[Since you can say the word "hell", I don't mind giving you a taste of hell. ] God knows how angry Marui was when he heard Kirihara's report. Getting used to gossip and getting angry are two different things. If there is a chance to slap the face, the slap must be louder.

[gamesetandmatch,wonbyRikkaidai6-0]

"Terrible." King Ni's expression didn't match what he said.Marui's anger disappeared, and the frequency of bubble gum blowing dropped a lot.

At the end of the court, Nioh and Yagyu high-fived: "It's rare to play singles, and Xiu Yixiu is fine."

"That's what I mean." Yagyu stood in front of Yukimura, "Kun Yukimura?"

"Come as you please."

"learn."

Liu Sheng felt that he should make some compensation for his waywardness of "playing around" with King Ni before.

[Last game time seems to be... 11 minutes and 39 seconds... a bit challenging. ]

"Huh~" Kirihara stood together with Yagyu who had returned from warming up, saw Yagyu hit a double back, and the tennis ball whizzed away made Hibino's outstretched racket on the opposite side shrink back, "Senior Yagyu looks angry?"

"Puri, just let go of your hands and feet."

Although assassins never easily reveal their swords, the short swords of assassins are often the sharpest, fatal in one blow.

The ball passing past Hibino's side really gave him the illusion of penetrating his body and mind.The whistling and bouncing of the tennis ball made his arms clamor not to move forward.

[gamesetandmatch,wonbyRikkaidai6-0]

"Although it's a pity, this is the outcome." Yagyu looked elegant and polite when shaking hands after the game, and the smile on his face became more friendly when his palm touched Hibino's slightly trembling wet right hand.

"Ah...um...thanks for the advice."

When Yagyu left the field, Kirihara had already run to the coach's bench, and Liu followed behind.

"minister,"

"You're in the backcourt, can you paddle?"

"I'm not Nioh-senpai!"

Nioh, who was shot, laughed instead: "When did I become synonymous with paddling?"

"Probably after Moori-senpai retired from the ministry." Yagyu who sat next to King Ni was very serious.

"My shoulder has been healed." Kirihara wanted to shake his right shoulder, but Yukimura stopped him immediately.

"I will let you perform in the next two rounds." Yukimura coaxed with a good temper, "Let Renji lead the round."

"......All right."

Yukimura turned his gaze to Liu: "One-on-two has also trained, how about it?"

"Don't worry." Liu clenched the hand holding the racket. [I'll prove it to you, Seichi. ]

"Okay." Yukimura turned his head and nodded to Sanada, and Sanada left to warm up.

"One set determines the outcome, and Liuliqiu Ushida starts first."

Ushida's serve was returned by Kirihara. To his surprise, Kirihara retreated to the sidelines after returning the ball.

"Hey, you Li Haida don't want to win—" The side-spin ball accurately brushed against his knees and bounced back twice on the ground.The cuticle was scraped by the spinning tennis ball fluff, revealing a small patch of tender, flesh-colored skin.

"Please don't be polite." Liu's eyes flickered coldly, squinting at Ushida who was still stroking the wound with his legs bent, "Although no matter how you struggle, the probability of being cut to zero will still be 100%." ​​He has been waiting for this day for a long time!

"Tch!" Miyase pointed at Liu with a slap, "Don't be so complacent."

Liu didn't say much anymore, he still wanted to fight for the time record.

"I don't think anyone is normal today except me." Nioh muttered in a low voice, "I should have known that I was a little bit abnormal."

"You're not normal." Liu Sheng also complained in a low voice, "It's just being lazy."

"puri." Is it a good thing to have a partner who knows everything?

On the court, Kirihara did nothing but serve and receive, and he was quite blatantly paddling.One-on-two feats are extremely rare in official competitions, let alone national competitions?Lihai's "Military Advisor" did it so easily, which made the audience gasp in amazement after watching it.

"This is the strength that one of Lihai's 'Big Three' should have." When Sanada came back, the doubles one was coming to an end, and Liu's side-spinning big slash ended the game.

[gamesetandmatch,wonbyRikkaidai6-0]

"Very good." Yukimura's smile made Liu feel a little relieved, "This round will end soon, so don't let Chiya run around."

"Yeah." Liu pinched Kirihara's back collar and looked back at the competition area together.

"Yukimura."

"Sanada, let's end the game."

"what."

It really ended neatly.

[gamesetandmatch,wonbyRikkaidai6-0]

"The two sides lined up and stepped forward."

The players from the two schools were performing etiquette in front of the net. Yukimura looked at the series of 6s and series of 0s on the scoreboard at the coach's bench, and looked at the seven teammates in front of the net, bowed his head and let out a sigh of relief. [Good condition. ]

The author has something to say:

In the animation, I looked at that frame carefully. Li Hai is indeed Yukimura at the end. In the manga... I can't tell.
