[True luck] My young taming is too lax!

The team standing in the middle of the center court road is still a little dusty, and the red uniforms on their bodies look like a triumphant army.Those tall teenagers passed the eyes of everyone watching without wavering, and the pride in their bones was written on their faces.

After leaving the camp for a month and returning after playing overseas, these players who have experienced the baptism of the international arena seem to have different temperaments.Sanada saw the familiar senior in it.Although he is taller than his teammates, he has a relaxed and lovely smile on his face, with his arms crossed behind his head, and his eyes are wandering in the crowd.

"Well, Sanada, Marui..." He blinked at his juniors, and was a little surprised to see some of them wearing black coats, "Are you the ones who went to coach Mifune?"

Although seeing Sanada wearing a blindfold made him a little funny, but Yukimura Yanagi and Nioh were not spotted, and Mouri instantly understood the sound of hitting the ball he heard when he got off the car.

"So those three people are in the challenge?" He twitched the corner of his mouth, a little curious about the juniors.I don't know if they have the strength to stand on the top again now?

Sanada's eyes lingered on the No. 10 badge on his collar for a while, and then went to observe the one who attracted Yukimura's attention the most.The man with blond hair looked much older than three years ago, with a beard growing on his chin, and sharper brows.If in the game videos and magazine photos they had seen before, this person was still a handsome "phoenix", then the current Byodoin Temple is a divine bird with scars on its back after being reborn from the ashes.

This man's sword is too sharp, even if it is in the sheath, it can't hide its coercion.

"Are we going back to the stadium just to wait for someone?"

Gradually, people in the first army began to ask questions. They and the coach learned about this customary "welcome ceremony", but no one thought there would be any surprises that would affect the ranking. "It didn't take so long before. After all, you have improved Or are they jet lagged?"

The people in the second army didn't think it was a joke. It was obvious that they were underestimated and became a joke for the opponent to relax.Although they still vaguely feel that the probability of winning is not high, they still have hope for those who left...

"Sanada, why don't you go?"

Atobe ignored Yijun's ridicule at all, he stared at the silent young man with some scrutiny, "Don't waste the opportunity with a black coat, you are much timid when you come back from the defeated group."

Sanada looked sideways, and found that many people were looking over, but they couldn't keep silent.

"These people are just the bottom ten." He whispered, there was no contempt in his tone, but the content made people dumbfounded, "I trust my teammates."

If it's not the bottom ten, maybe you will play?

Everyone stared at him with wide eyes, as if unable to react to such a conceited speech.

"Oh? Do you think those people will be defeated by you?"

The deep voice asked from a high place made people tense up. When everyone looked over, the blond man was staring straight at the top of Sanada's head, "Junior high school students, please take a good look at yourself, don't be arrogant."

"Now you are talking about junior high school students, your vision is too shallow!" Atobe squinted his eyes, folded his arms and looked up at the irritating guy, "Strength comes first, you know this best .”

"The guy on the 2nd and 3rd court shut up! It's better not to talk too much." Byodoin swept the eyes of those middle school students with angry faces.What, the gang of high school students were all beaten down by children?It's really ugly.

He turned to the boy who was staring at him with calm eyes, and raised his eyebrows, "Tokugawa, your aura is a bit better than before."

"you!"

The ghost put a hand on his shoulder and shook his head slightly.Tokugawa clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.He really always hated this guy the most. The one who was arrogant and self-important was none other than Byodoin himself.

"Well, it's okay to talk occasionally?" The red-haired boy broke the simmering atmosphere, and Mao Li winked at the boys from Lihai, "I don't know about others, but there are a few children, if you underestimate them You will suffer."

"Indeed, Byodoin, that tone of yours is sometimes annoying..."

This voice came from the other side behind everyone. The silver-haired boy with wheat-colored skin was strolling over with his trademark relaxed expression, and walked slowly to stand beside Byodoin Temple.He didn't step on the car, and his coat was fastened properly, with a golden badge on the collar.

That is the badge belonging to No.2 of the First Army.

"...Who is this?" Echizen, who had never seen this person in Houshan Special Training, asked wonderingly.

"The No. 2 Shuji Tanejima who didn't go on an overseas expedition and stayed in a hotel because he hated airplanes."

"There are many children here that will surprise you, Byodoin." Taneshima said softly, and exchanged a glance with Irie who was not far away, "It stands to reason that the child should have finished beating a long time ago, why hasn't he come here yet? Are you watching the battle..."

The Byodoin Institute looked sideways at him, drawing attention to the "that child" in this population.Tanejima, who has never been interested in players, would also care about someone, and he must be a very good person among junior high school students.

"Wait, I think I heard footsteps!"

Everyone looked towards the end of the road, and from the end of the road full of cedar trees, a group of dark figures were coming.They held their breath and stared at the past. Among the approaching crowd, a white shadow was the leader in the middle.

The young man in a white and red uniform walked in front with a calm face. He was carrying a tennis bag and seemed to carry two more on his shoulders, but it didn't seem to affect his power at all.He was slender and straight, with his sleeves fluttering in the wind, without a trace of sweat on his body, as if he was not challenging the first army, but just played a relaxing practice.

His collar was reflected by the sun, and the golden badge was engraved with 11. He walked back to the court with calm steps, but he seemed to be approaching the summit of the throne.Behind him, the black uniformed army returned triumphantly, everyone's eyes burning and sweat dripping profusely.They looked like they had endured a tough fight, some were wounded and some were supported by teammates, but all wore their trophies pinned to their collars, bragging about their victories.

The biggest winner of this war comes from the junior high school student revolutionary | army, which is underestimated by others.Now, the new generals are besieging at the foot of Wangcheng, and they are eyeing the ten highest positions. Can anyone say a word of "arrogance"?

"Everyone has a good expression..." Byodoin glanced at these teenagers one by one, slowly suppressing the surprise in my heart.He had heard of this year's group called "a collection of geniuses of the decade" by the media, but he didn't really take it to heart.The only guy he can appreciate at the moment is Tokugawa, but at this time he cannot help but focus on the young man in charge.

"It's you, the one who ended Muzhiteng's second consecutive hegemony back then."

He didn't feel much regret, the younger generation didn't keep the honor he left behind, it was just that what happened behind him had nothing to do with him.But this person not only took away the victory, but also held it firmly in his hands. This is something that the Court of Equality cares about.

"Everyone desires the throne, but there is only one who can sit firmly." Yukimura walked back to the junior high school teammates, looked up and looked back, "If you don't evolve, you will be defeated. This is a conclusion."

None of the accolades will last forever.Even if Lihai had sixteen consecutive championships in Kanto and three consecutive championships in the whole country, Yukimura also clearly knew that this record would be broken one day.

And he had been mentally prepared for this from the moment he kicked off the Muzhi Vine and climbed to the top with his companions three years ago.

If you are afraid of the challenge of the strong, then the throne will always be nothing.Only by becoming a king who will not be defeated can you engrave your name on that position.

"That's right, that's right." Byodoin nodded, scanning the boys.A group of juniors who dared to challenge the throne, since seeing Tokugawa two years ago, how long has it been since he saw this look in his eyes again?

What a grand and satisfying welcome.

After returning to the team, the junior high school students communicated with their companions, and someone noticed that the chattering red-haired boy was missing.

"I saw Toyama's game, he should be here soon." Yukimura's eyes turned to the end of the road, and there was a faint shaking shadow.

The thin boy was carrying a tall man on his back. The two looked like they had fought hand to hand, with blood on their head and wounds on their body.Obviously he could leave his opponent in the arena and let the doctor rescue him, but the simple Yuan Shan carried him all the way.Perhaps it was rare to see such a pure heart, even Yukimura frowned as he watched Toyama receive Izo's badge.

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and the man who was hit and knocked down by the ball in front of everyone drew another distance on the ground. Before Yukimura could look back, the attacker over there taunted.

"You still have the face to come back after losing, so why not just lose your self-esteem!"

Yukimura lowered his face, the young man beside him was panting heavily, he turned his head sideways, the eyes of his own junior were full of disgust.

"Too bad."

Those words that Kirihara had been lingering in his mind a long time ago are now finally solved by the sober reality.He kept replaying the image of the overturned man falling to the ground in his mind, and closed his eyes fiercely.The young man seemed to recall that in the hospital ward a few months ago, he heard Minister Yukimura, who was wearing a hospital uniform, yelling thunderously in his ears——

Cutting off someone's career is a heavy burden, can you afford the sin?

Realizing how important it was for the seniors to strictly stop themselves from being demonized, Kirihara exhaled deeply, "I definitely don't want to be like this person."

You can use any method to practice, even if your five senses are wiped out by the minister every day, he will never want to hurt someone with tennis balls again.He wants to use his strength to frighten his opponents, and wants to get along with his teammates as happily as he did among Li Hai's seniors.

Intentionally hurting his companions with tennis balls, how could such a person be in the first army?

Almost at the same time as him, all the middle school students were enraged by this sudden punishment.They've never seen anyone treat their peers so brutally, even with their favorite tennis ball.

"Is this what you do? As long as you lose the game, you will abandon your teammates..." The companions who fought together would turn their heads violently. The person they yearn for in the first army and represent Japan in the world should definitely not be such a player.

"Hey, how about playing with us next?"

If the coach doesn't care and the captain just sits idly by, then it's up to them to tear these people down and teach the seniors a good lesson about what tennis is and what a partner is.

"If you lose, be careful not to be beaten by your teammates again!"

The most important thing for a young man is the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire. If there are these companions walking forward together, what is there to be afraid of?

-

"Aren't you going, little Maori?"

After Tanejima finished speaking with Byodoin, he turned around and saw the junior who rarely talked to Byodoin today.The red-haired boy lay on the fence beside the road and watched the boys in black and white sportswear leave without blinking his eyes.

"In order to save the younger generation and talk to Byodoin, which you don't like the most, you obviously said the name of the younger generation so happily before, but now you don't say hello?"

He walked over to Maori and bent over the railing too.Although this newcomer has only come here not long ago, he rushed all the way to the tenth place in the first army, which is really surprising. Even Tokugawa, who was valued by the Byodoin before, was defeated by this guy from time to time. Maori's obsession with victory can be seen.

"I had a chat with your little minister before."

Maori turned around in surprise, "Senior Taneshima? Why..."

"Speaking of your inability to resist mental attacks, is it still unresolved?" Taneshima didn't answer, but asked pointedly, "Since the Byodoin Institute said that we should arrange tomorrow's competition list, you should have Someone you want to fight with?"

Maori was silent.He did, but that person obviously wouldn't take his tenth position seriously, "He is already No.11, maybe he played the game extremely easily." He turned his head and looked at the person next to him. Senior, thinking of this person's style of play, there was a bit of grievance and jealousy in his tone, "You must have had an appointment with Xiao Yukimura before, now come here to show off to me..."

"I became interested in him because you said 'Xiao Yukimura is definitely better than you'!" Taneshima patted his arm with a smile, "For the sake of our fellow villagers, don't care about this with seniors. Kind of a little thing..."

"It's just Kansai dialect, who knows where you are from!"

"Sure enough, I still like to complain about this accent."

Mori took a deep breath, and couldn't help but miss the days when he was the only senior in the main election in Lihai Tennis Club.Koyukimura, if you really compete with this guy, I will definitely only help you...

"However, it is really a blessing to have juniors. You are probably the only one who can get close to so many children here." Taneshima straightened his arms and leaned back, "Don't let the water get too much water when you meet a junior tomorrow. Oh pass!"

Maori watched his leaving back, but couldn't say a word.

If you still look down on those children with the pride of an army, you will definitely stumble.They are not at the level where they can win by letting go.

Yukimura, who was so thought about, didn't know that there was a senior who was looking forward to a match with him.Since the confrontation with the first army in the morning, the next day's game was agreed on the impulse, and the second army and the junior high school students each ignited their fighting spirit.Seven games, including 3 sets of doubles and 4 singles, corresponding to 10 members of the first team, they must send the most effective lineup.Except for Tokugawa, who was appointed by the Byodoin, many people have a rough list in their minds. If they are asked to recommend, there are probably only these few people who can shoulder the victory.

Compared with the winning percentage of singles, doubles is more difficult.Most of the original doubles teams here are only at the level of junior high school students, and many of them cannot become pillars in the school team.The opponent's doubles team has already played overseas, and the tacit understanding probably far surpasses them. Even if the strongest players work together temporarily, will the cooperation really have an effect in the official game?

There are countless ideas in their minds, some simply throw away their doubts to find a partner for themselves, and some silently guarantee training to make their bodies reach the best state.And Yukimura returned to the dormitory early after the brief exchange with Sanada at night, let his body sink into the quilt, and relaxed his mind.

He has never been soberly and nervously aware that there will be a tough battle tomorrow like tonight.Even Tokugawa, the captain, can't have the greatest confidence in this lineup, but Yukimura can guarantee his victory without hesitation.

"I originally thought you would want to fight Byodoin." When he went to Tokugawa to ask for a fight, the senior had asked so bluntly.

"I originally thought that Senior Tanejima would play singles." He responded frankly to the question.

What Taneshima said to himself not long ago still echoed in his ears——

"Hey, do you want to play with me?"

The silver-haired boy's relaxed smile didn't seem to take himself seriously, as if whether it was killing the five senses or being baptized, it was just child's play.To this day, Yukimura can still remember the urge he couldn't help but agree.

Our engagement will come true soon, Tanejima-senpai.That badge, it's okay to let it stay in your hands for one more night.

As long as we have that person as our partner, no one will beat us.

On the first morning when the expedition team returned, Yukimura felt the dignified atmosphere in the dormitory as soon as he returned to his room after morning exercise and breakfast.The two roommates seemed a little more nervous than themselves who were going to play today.

"You two will be very stressful, relax." He adjusted his headband and wrist guards, removed all the training weights on his body, and tied his shoelaces.

Seeing this person's relaxed expression, Shiraishi was puzzled, "I still don't understand. With your strength, you should be playing singles. Why did you play doubles? Well, although the doubles position is indeed very important..."

Yukimura looked up at him, but Fuji on the other side was also silent.It suddenly occurred to him that these two were talented singles players, and they had obvious weaknesses in doubles. For example, Fuji's doubles results this season were not perfect.

"Of course there are reasons, and Senior Tokugawa knows the First Army quite well, so this is the most suitable formation."

He smiled, purposely not giving them a clear explanation.

Even if you don't know it now, someone on the sidelines will remember it later. Before he became famous as the "Son of God", he had a more famous name.

He dug out the familiar and nostalgic uniform from the cabinet, took off the sweatshirt he had shared with, and seriously changed into khaki clothes.The long-lost soft cloth wraps his skin, and the Lihai shirt that he has fought for three years now ignites his fighting spirit again.

No matter how long it has passed, he still loves this dress the most.

Now that the losing group has received the "conquerment" from Sanchuan's coach, they must also go into battle with their companions carrying their own glory on their backs.He was carrying a tennis bag to meet his teammates in the hall, and he saw familiar expressions on everyone's faces.

Going to battle again after three months, he only had the color of Li Hai's uniform in his eyes.

That's the color of victory.
