Chapter 159 Memories. first meeting
"It has nothing to do with... anything..."
"I'm going to put everything I have into this game..."
Akutsu's eyes were red and veins popped out on his arms.
Behind him, Sanada was in a similar state. He was covered in black gas, and his eyes were bloodshot because he was too wide...
With the efforts of the two, they are only half way away from achieving their goal...
unfortunately
"boom--"
"6-0, the game is over, the winner is Yizhongdao & Daqu!"
"The total score is 2-0, the first army wins!"
"Bang!" Hearing the referee's voice announcing the end of the game, Sanada punched the ground, and Akutsu couldn't help but shed tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Winning and losing are so ruthless~" Although I sympathize with Sanada for losing the game, compared with Sanada's growth, losing seems nothing~ Amamiya Arashi thought to himself.
Yukimura frowned slightly, and then said with a firm tone, "But, Genichiro has already ignited a new fighting spirit~"
"That's great ~ Akutsu." Outside the court, Sengoku Seijun, who was watching Akutsu and watching Akutsu shed tears in the court, couldn't help but sigh, "In this case, wouldn't there be another reason to continue playing tennis? Huh~" After saying that, the arc of the corner of his mouth widened a little further.
On the court, Taneshima looked at Sanada who looked not so good and couldn't help but said, "Hurry up and perfect that move of yours! I'm looking forward to the next game with you~"
"Huh~ I'll finish it right away!" After hearing Taneshima's words, Sanada made up his mind to perfect his moves as soon as possible.
"Hey! You... forget it, it's nothing..." Oguri Ryuji saw Tanejima going to talk to Sanada. He was originally thinking of saying something to another opponent, but when he glanced slightly, he saw Akutsu's tears. ... Daqu, who didn't know what to say and struggled to comfort children, had no choice but to sigh and leave.
Here at the center court, the match between Sanada and Akutsu against Ichigun Tunejima and Omagari has come to an end. On the other side of the free field, after Amamiya Arashi and others left, Echizen Ryuya has been concentrating on teaching Ryoma how to hit the "light ball".
Under Echizen Ryoma's careful instruction, in a short period of time, Echizen Ryoma roughly mastered the 'Light Shot', but the power was relatively not very high.
Looking at his younger brother who was right in front of him, Echizen Ryuya took a bite of an orange with the flesh on the skin and said, "You already have some eyebrows ~ brat!"
"However, that's all I can teach you." As he spoke, Echizen Ryuya closed his eyes, "You should go back next."
"..." Hearing this, Echizen Ryoma held the racket and looked at the high school student in front of him who looked similar to himself, "Rather than going back or anything... I want to compete with you..."
"Huh?" Hearing Ryoma's words, Echizen Ryuya opened his eyes. Looking at the greatly changed young man in front of him, Echizen Ryuya's thoughts were racing, and he gradually recalled what happened when the two were still together when they were children.
At that time, Ryoma also thought about competing with himself every day. Looking at a small man holding a tennis racket that was almost as tall as him, he said seriously that he wanted to play a serious game with him... Thinking of this, Echizen Ryuya couldn't help laughing.
He raised his head, opened his eyes, and took a serious look at the current Echizen Ryoma. A smile appeared on Longya's lips, and he said in a serious tone, "A showdown? Let's do it then."
"Huh?" As if he was surprised that Echizen Ryuya actually agreed to the competition, Ryoma's eyes showed a little astonishment.
But he soon came back to his senses, and the undying fighting spirit reappeared in his eyes.
……
While Echizen Ryoma was immersed in Echizen Ryuya's promise to compete with him, other junior high school students in the central court were looking for traces of Echizen Ryoma.
Although Amamiya Arashi and others have seen Echizen Ryoma before, they are not sure whether that guy is still where he is...
"Damn you brat! It's so ungrateful!" Atobe rubbed his temples with a hint of anger in his tone.
Ah! Everyone is not used to it like the protagonist running around triggering all kinds of accidents and opportunities. The villain in Amangong Lan's heart helplessly spread his hands, but his face looked as unkind as other junior high school students.
……
I don’t know what the junior high school students are up to, but I don’t have much patience. Byodoin walked out of the seats and came to the court. Byodoin, who was full of dangerous aura, pointed at Tokugawa Kazuya with a racket, "Then, come on, Tokugawa! Next, let me see your consciousness..."
"boom--"
A tennis ball was hit by Tokugawa, and successfully hit Byodoin with great force, causing a large amount of dust to rise on the ground.
"I'm sure I'm too strong..."
Tokugawa stood outside the baseline and said to Byodoin, which was obscured by dust.
"So you want to row a boat out to the sea?" The dust dispersed, revealing Byodoin squatting on the ground.
Tokugawa showed a surprised expression when he saw Byodoin being slowly hit by a tennis ball but unharmed.
"Haha - just sail with the feeling of being afraid of the silence of the boat and being shocked!" Byodoin had a mocking look on his face, and there was no hint of politeness in his words.
"..." Tokugawa Kazuya opened his mouth and only said, "I firmly believe..."
……
On the other side, Echizen Ryoma, who had recovered from the joy of Echizen Ryuya agreeing to compete, looked at Ryuya with doubts on his face.
Seeing this, Echizen Ryoma rubbed Echizen Ryoma's head and asked teasingly, "What? Are you thinking of your brother, little one?"
"..." Echizen Ryoma was silent for a while, and then asked with a hint of doubt, "Are you...really, brother?"
Hearing this, Echizen Ryuya closed his eyes, as if recalling something, and then said, "Yes! But, that happened when the little one was very young..."
Echizen Ryuya fell into memories. At that time, Echizen Nanjiro was not the sloppy uncle he is now. At that time, he was still... very handsome!
And the Ryoma he saw for the first time... Thinking of this, Echizen Ryuya opened his eyes and looked at the current Ryoma.
Completely different! The little one I just met when I was a child is a cute little girl who is easily shy! Time is really magical!
Comparing the current little one with the Ryoma when they first met, Echizen Ryuya couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
