Demon Slayer: The beginning of an immortal sword

The next day, in the final of the Fudomine and Seigaku tournament, surprisingly, Akashi was not there, but Kihei Tachibana and Chitose came back.

Fuji asked Kihei Tachibana with some curiosity, and then he knew that Akashi was called back by the U17 team and was going to play in the overseas expedition. Since there was no world championship this year, the overseas expedition became the best way for countries to win points.

The opponent this time was South Korea, but Akashi and his team did not go abroad, because this time it was the Korean team that came to Japan to play in the expedition, so the Japanese team just had to wait at home.

Then Fuji came to the sidelines and greeted Fuji Yuta who was watching the game outside, but Yuta turned his head away, looking like he didn't want to pay attention to Fuji, which made Fuji only smile and shake his head.

This time, Qingxue sent out Taochengwu and Kaidou Xun for the second doubles. Just like in the original book, they already disliked each other at this time.

Fudomine sent out Ibu Shinji and Kamio Akira again. The talents of these two people have gradually emerged in Fudomine's second team, so now is the time for them to accumulate more game experience.

After the game started, Ibu Shinji finally used his reserved trick, the side spin serve, a trick that is very similar to the external spin serve, or the two are just different in name, and the effect is similar.

This trick directly prevented Kaidou from receiving the ball and hitting back, but after adapting to this trick, as long as his own skills are good, he can still hit back easily.

However, Kaidou didn't hesitate to use the snake ball, which was initially perfected, in order to score points. Unfortunately, Kamio Akira's speed had greatly improved, and he could always easily catch up with the snake ball and use the inertia of the sprint to hit back with good power and speed.

Kikumaru watched Kamio Akira's speed on the sidelines and nodded constantly, obviously appreciating it. In addition, Momoshiro's smash had begun to show its power, which made him score a few points.

Ibu didn't hesitate to use temporary paralysis when the game was halfway through. To be honest, this trick was very effective against ordinary players, but if it met a stronger one, it might be cracked soon.

In the end, Fudomine defeated Seigaku 6-3. When Momoshiro and Kaidou left the court, the two were madly complaining about each other's lack of strength. If it weren't for Kawamura Ryuichi separating the two, they would probably fight.

Needless to say, the doubles match was played by Oishi and Kikumaru from Seigaku, and by Kikuhei and Chitose from Fudomine. This match really opened the eyes of all the first-year players.

Under the guidance of the Mutsu brothers, Oishi and Kikumaru finally opened the synchronization. It seems that the Mutsu brothers are indeed graduates of Seigaku, and they have spared no effort in teaching Kikumaru and Oishi.

After opening the synchronization, Oishi and Kikumaru's doubles strength suddenly improved to a higher level. Even Kikumaru's unrestrained shots can be perfectly matched by Oishi.

And Kikumaru can perfectly match Oishi's performance without verbal communication. The complementarity between the two seems just right.

And Kikuhei and Chitose also became serious after being defeated by a few points, and directly opened the beast synchronization. A match between synchronizations made people around them a little dazzled.

The legendary doubles skill actually appeared right in front of them. Both sides of the game actually mastered it, and the two people from Fudo Mine were obviously not ordinary synchronization.

Some old viewers have become accustomed to it. This is nothing to them. The singles match of the national competition last year is still fresh in people's memory. It still feels incredible when they think about it now.

In the end, Kikumaru and Oishi still lost in their personal strength. Facing two national top opponents who also opened synchronization, they could not compete even if they tried their best. The game ended with 6-1.

This also allowed the first-year students of Qingxue to see the strength of the national overlord again. The next singles match was Kawamura Takashi against Kido. Fuji actually had no hope. It seemed that his idea of ​​fighting Tezuka today was in vain.

Sure enough, Kawamura Takashi's open and close style of play was completely defeated by the elusive Kido, not to mention the gap in strength between the two. In the end, the game ended with 6-0 and Fudo Mine won.

So far, Fudomine has won the championship of the Metropolitan Games again, but this is also expected by everyone, and some media did not report it as much as last year.

On the other hand, in U1

In the training camp of 7, head coach Mifune and three coaches were receiving the U17 team from South Korea and the staff of the Asian Tennis Association. However, the undisguised contempt on the face of the coach of the Korean team almost made Mifune go crazy, but fortunately he was stopped by the three coaches.

Actually, this year's ranking of the Korean team in the world has not risen but fallen. At the French World Championship last year, they were ranked 27th, and now they have dropped to 28th, and this downward trend is still going to continue.

However, in the original book, when the Australian World Championship started, the ranking of the Korean team did drop to 29th, while the Japanese team rose to 23rd. Even now, the Japanese team is ranked 25th, and reaching the quarterfinals of the World Championship has added a lot of points for them.

So everyone on the Korean team is very unhappy with the Japanese team. Their country is at the center of the universe, but now it has been surpassed by a small country like Japan. Even if the other party made it to the quarterfinals of the world last year, it was just dog shit luck in the eyes of the Korean team.

This time they came to Neon, they wanted to completely crush the Neon team and let them know who is the boss of Asia. Obviously, they have selectively forgotten the existence of the mysterious ancient oriental country with the dragon as its totem. The other side is currently 10 places ahead of South Korea.

Under the leadership of three coaches, the Korean players walked into the Neon U17 training camp. Looking at the players training on the court around them, they all showed disdain on their faces.

When everyone arrived at the competition venue, all the members of the first team except Edoin had arrived. By the way, the guy from Edoin is still traveling around the world. I guess he doesn't want to come back to face the Neon team for the time being.

Due to the bad attitude of South Korea, everyone didn't say much nonsense. After waiting for them to rest, they started this expedition directly. The rules of the game are the same as the knockout rounds of the world championship, three sets and two wins, starting with singles three first.

On the Japanese team, Mifune arranged for Ghost to play, obviously wanting to give the Korean team a head start, preferably to directly shock the opponent. Even if the opponent was disabled, Mifune probably wouldn't care.

The Korean team played a senior high school player named Xu Junda. After hearing this name, Akashi's expression became very strange, with an expression of wanting to laugh but forcibly holding it back, which made Irie on the side look at Akashi with some curiosity.

This game can be said to be Xu Junda's nightmare. In the first set, Ghost was not completely serious, but even so, his natural strange power made Xu Junda suffer a lot, and finally lost the first set 6-4. At this time, Xu Junda's hands had begun to numb.

But during the break, he still mocked Ghost a few times, and also reported to the Asian Tennis Association staff next to him that because the air quality in Neon was too poor, he did not get enough rest, which was unfair.

However, the people of the Asian Tennis Association knew exactly what kind of people Korea is, so they didn't take Xu Junda's words seriously at all, and just asked him to start the second set as soon as possible after a good rest.

That is to say, this time in Japan, if it was in Korea, the referee would probably be the protagonist of the game. No matter how powerful your skills are, as long as you are judged out of bounds, it will be fine.

Looking at Xu Junda's suicidal look, Akashi could already imagine how miserable he would be next. Ghosts don't have a good temper when dealing with enemies, and they can send you to hell for a day trip in a minute.

Sure enough, when the second set of the game started, the ghost decisively entered the Shura Road, and the momentum on his body also soared. Facing such a ghost, Xu Junda was completely suppressed, and the racket in his hand was constantly knocked away.

In the end, the ghost couldn't help it, and directly used a black battle axe to blast Xu Junda on the opposite side out of the court and hit the wall behind him, and Xu Junda fainted on the spot.

This scene made the coach of the Korean team furious on the spot. He immediately protested to the Asian Tennis Association and complained that the Japanese team used violence, violated sports ethics, and tarnished the competitive spirit of tennis.

But the Asian Tennis Association did not buy into the Korean tricks and directly asked the coach to return, otherwise his coaching license would be revoked. This made the coach of the Korean team extremely frustrated and he could only grit his teeth and return to the team.

However, he still couldn't swallow this breath, so he directly called the two players of the doubles team, swept his eyes viciously over the Japanese team, whispered a few words in the ears of the players, and the two players also nodded, with cruel looks on their faces.

How could the little tricks of the Korean country be hidden from Mifune, so in the next doubles match, Mifune directly arranged for Tono Atsuki and Date Oji to play.

It is worth mentioning that the ghost just now

That match also allowed the freshmen of this year's high school to see the strength of the first team. There were also several acquaintances of Akashi, such as Yamato, Taira Yoshiyuki, Sakata and Fujii. However, the two doubles players of Hyotei did not enter the U17. It is not known whether they are not talented enough or have given up tennis.

On the contrary, the junior high school students who are still in the training camp watched the game calmly. This is already a small scene for them. After seeing the world competition, their horizons have obviously improved a lot.

The doubles match started soon. As soon as the first set of the game started, the two players of the Korean team started their journey of death. In addition, the names of these two people are Park Kwang-ryul and Cho Kuk-doo.

I don't know what the Korean coach said before the game. They actually hit the tennis ball directly at the opponent. This really played into the hands of Tono Atsukyo. Tono excitedly began his execution method.

"Hahaha! Go to hell! Execution by shooting!"

"Execution by shooting! The 2nd execution is by firing squad!"

"Execution by shooting! The 7th execution is by the bull of Phaolaris!"

"Experience this wonderful art! The 13th execution is by beheading!"

After Park Kwang-ryul was hit by Tono Atsukyō's beheading, he fell to his knees, paralyzed and unable to move. This is the ultimate meaning of Tono Atsukyō's execution - Kaishakun!

And Ida Man on the side also played Man's Summer at the right time, completely blasting Park Kwang-ryul away. Zhao Guodou next to him was already dumbfounded. He was also hit by several executions, but he didn't expect his partner to end up so miserably.

At this moment, the coach of the Korean country jumped out to stop the game, and protested to the Asian Tennis Association with more intense words, saying that the Japanese team was deliberately obliterating the future of their players and their behavior was too bad, and demanded that they be directly sentenced to victory.

The staff of the Asian Tennis Association looked at him like a fool, ruthlessly rejected the other party's unreasonable request, and signaled that the game should continue, but the coach of the Korean country was completely fed up and took everyone to leave directly, saying that he would appeal to the International Tennis Association. The Asian Tennis Association was obviously protecting the Japanese team in this game.

Akashi looked at the Korean people who left and was speechless. No... they actually left like this? What is this wave called? Glass heart? Can't afford to lose? Boring self-esteem?

The people of the Asian Tennis Association did not expect that the Korean country would dare to do it for real. The expressions on their faces were extremely ugly. After saying sorry to the Japanese team, they also left in a hurry. It seems that the Korean country will have a hard time this time.

This farce-like expedition ended so anticlimactic. Oh, no! It's not even a tiger's head, it can only be regarded as a joke.

However, the members of the Neon Team didn't care at all. This was equivalent to free points. As for the fact that South Korea would complain to the International Tennis Association later, Mifune said that it was just for fun. It was pure nonsense.

After that, everyone dispersed one by one, doing what they had to do. No one would mention this game again. Akashi received a call from Tezuka at this time, telling him that Fudomine won the championship of the Metropolitan Tournament. Akashi said calmly that he had worked hard and hung up the phone.

Next, it is necessary to prepare for the Kanto Tournament. This time, Akashi does not plan to let the second army play again. The same is true for other schools. All junior high school students who are training in U17 have returned to their schools one after another, including several people from Shitenhoji.

Speaking of the Kanto Tournament, there is something that Akashi finds very interesting, that is Kirihara Akaya. According to Yanagi Renji, Kirihara originally planned to come to Fudomine, but unfortunately, I don’t know if it was the will of the world, he actually entered Rikkai University in a daze.

However, Yukimura began to train Kirihara very seriously, and even found Akashi, hoping that he could come to Rikkai University before the Kanto Conference to help Kirihara draw up a training plan. Akashi thought about it and did not refuse. After all, Kirihara's talent was quite good, at least several levels higher than other peers.

After Akashi came to Rikkai University, he observed Kirihara's training and competition for a while, and gave Yukimura a preliminary training method. However, for Kirihara's red-eye state, Akashi still gave advice, asking Yukimura to try to prohibit Kirihara from triggering it frequently, which is a kind of harm to the body.

In the original work, Kirihara's red-eye state eventually developed into demonization, which is actually a kind of exploitation of the body's potential, and it will also cause invisible hidden injuries. When accumulated to a certain extent, it will completely destroy Kirihara's career.

Even if it is angelization, Akashi estimates that the side effects are slightly smaller than demonization, but it is not suitable for long-term use, but the effect of angelization is stronger than the bonus of the selfless state.

Akashi plans to let Kirihara ask for help when the time is right.

Teaching his father the Shurado is more suitable for him. After all, his father's experience in the Shurado is obviously much higher than Akashi's, and Kirihara's situation is quite special. Maybe his father has other ways.

When he was at Rikkai University, Akashi also saw Yagyu Hiroshi. It seems that Nioh still pulled him into the tennis club. This is good. The members of Rikkai University in the original work are completely gathered.

On the Fudomine side, in the last selection before the Kanto Conference, Fuji Yuta unexpectedly made it to the second team. Of course, this unexpected refers to ordinary members, and Akashi was not surprised at all.

It's a pity that Ishida Tetsu was just a little bit away from success this time, but Akashi still gave him a strength training, and gave Ishida Tetsu the training method of the improved version of the wave ball that Ishida Gin asked him to pass on. I believe that Ishida Tetsu will be able to master the wave ball soon.

A week before the Kanto Conference, all the participating Kanto school representatives came to Fudomine Junior High School. After the Fudomine Tennis Club won the Kanto Conference Championship last year, the principal renovated the school's large conference hall to prepare for today.

After everyone arrived at the conference hall, it suddenly became lively. Some greeted each other and chatted with each other, and some met each other. It was not until Akashi and Tezuka entered the conference hall that everyone quieted down.

Akashi looked around and saw that there were many new faces. Some of the third-year ministers last year had graduated, and many of the new ministers were unknown to Akashi, but Akashi didn't care at all.

Under the arrangement of the tennis association staff, after all schools completed the draw, the schedule of this year's Kanto Conference was finally presented to everyone. Akashi not only felt sad for Yamabuki and Rokkakuchu, because one of them met Hyotei and the other met Rikkai University.

Just like that, a week passed quickly and the Kanto Conference opened as scheduled. It can be said that except for Shitenhoji, the strongest junior high schools are all concentrated in this competition. Whether Rikkai University can regain its position as the overlord of Kanto this year is a topic that everyone is interested in.
