Legendary tennis, starting from signing up to talent

After a long time.

On the small road in Ariake Tennis Park.

"This is a losing deal~"

"Next time, I must get back the principal and interest."

Kitagawa carried a bag of cold drinks and sighed helplessly as he walked.

I thought it would be quick to buy drinks from the beverage vending machines in Ariake Tennis Park.

But because of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly today, the drinks in several vending machines were empty.

In the end, Kitagawa could only go to the surrounding stores to buy them.

But he never expected.

Because Ryugasaki Sakurano and Kosakada Tomoka contacted fans in Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School.

As a result, fans from Kanagawa Prefecture and Tokyo Seigakuen all came here.

As soon as he showed up, he was surrounded by people.

He couldn't even contact the butler Kamiya Keiichi to come to help.

In desperation.

Kitagawa could only sign and take photos numbly.

A lot of time was wasted.

When Kitagawa returned to the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament Stadium.

The match between the Seigakuen team and the Hyotei Academy team was almost over.

"Abei."

"I was wondering if you were lost."

"If I had known, I would have let me buy it."

Kirihara Akaya looked at Kitagawa as if he was dying of thirst, and took the cold drink with a complaint.

"If I let you go."

"Everyone probably went home, and you won't be seen."

After drinking half a bottle in one breath, Niou Masaharu, who finally recovered, started to challenge Kirihara Akaya again.

"Doubles 2, Seigaku Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Shuichiro VS Hyotei Academy Meido Ryo and Hocho Taro, 7-5, Aogaku wins."

"Doubles 1, Seigaku Momoshiro Takeshi and Kaito Kaoru VS Hyotei Academy Oshiro Yuushi and Mukai Taketo, 7-5, Hyotei wins."

"Singles 3, Echizen Ryoma VS Kabachi Takahiro, 6-2, Aogaku wins."

"Singles 2, Kawamura Takashi VS Akutagawa Jiro, 6-4, Hyotei wins."

Yanagi Renji took the cold drink handed over by Kitagawa, took a sip, and began to briefly explain the general situation of the previous few games.

"Tezuka and Atobe have entered a stalemate."

"Now it depends on who reveals the flaw first."

Yukimura Seiichi continued.

"Atobe is already at a disadvantage."

"He still cares about his appearance."

"Or should I say that up to now, part of his mind has been on the wig on his head."

Then, Genichirō Sanada added in a deep voice.

"Senior Atobe should really stop gambling."

"Besides, who hasn't seen his bald head?"

After being controlled by this series of words for a few seconds.

Kitagawa sighed with a smile.

And the next moment.

As Kitagawa's voice fell.

On the court.

Boom!

Boom... Boom...

The key ball fell directly on the court on Atobe Keigo's side.

"Ding ding ding~"

"Valid ball."

"7-5!"

"Tezuka Kunimitsu of the Seigakuen team wins!"

"3-2!"

"Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament champion, Seigakuen team."

As the tennis ball bounced out of bounds and gradually stopped.

The referee on the podium blew the whistle and announced the result loudly.

"Atobe."

"Kitagawa sent you the clipper and wig not just to make you fulfill the bet."

"But you put all your heart on the wig that will be taken off eventually."

"Please forgive me for not trying my best."

Looking at the panting Atobe Keigo on the other side, Tezuka Kunimitsu exhaled a long breath.

He spoke to the other side quite seriously.

This was also the moment when he spoke the most today.

After that.

He turned around and walked straight to the Seigakuen team.

"Aren't clippers and wigs just clippers and wigs?"

"Face it calmly or cover it up carefully?"

Looking at the back of Tezuka Kunimitsu, Atobe Keigo was a little confused.

For a moment.

It seemed that he had realized something, but also that he regretted it.

"Inhale...exhale..."

After taking a few deep breaths.

Atobe Keigo slowly stood up.

Then he resolutely took off the wig on his head.

Then he walked calmly towards the Hyotei Academy team.

A corner of the audience.

[Come on! Atobe. ]

[Even if you experience countless defeats, you can definitely become a true emperor! ]

Looking at the boy, Ochi Gekko left a blessing in his heart.

Then he turned around and walked out of the stadium.

On the other side.

[It's still a long way to go~]Kitagawa took a deep look at Echizen Ryoma who was looking at him.

He moved his mouth and lip-synced this sentence to him.

Immediately.

"It seems that it is time for us to go home."

"As usual, let's have a dinner party at my house to celebrate."

Retracting his gaze, Kitagawa said to the Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School with a smile.

For Atobe Keigo.

Kitagawa actually quite recognized the other party's talent and talent.

But what is different from others is.

His weakness is not in tennis, but in his own personality.

Competitive, narcissistic, and contemptuous of others.

Of course, this is also because of his family and the personality problems brought about by King Primary School in the UK.

Take the contempt for opponents.

In the original work, the reason why Hyotei Academy lost to Fudomine Academy at the Tokyo Metropolitan Conference was because they looked down on the other party.

Although it has been slightly restrained now.

But it does not mean that this problem has been completely solved.

And his narcissism can be said to be the most serious point of all the problems.

Because narcissism often leads to contempt for opponents.

Kitagawa originally wanted to take advantage of this bet of shaving his head to let him understand this truth.

Unexpectedly, Atobe Keigo still realized it after Tezuka Kunimitsu reminded him.

"I'm suddenly looking forward to the Kanto Tournament."

Yukimura Seiichi, who stood up and followed Kitagawa and others to the outside, couldn't help but laugh softly.

"But it's also very stressful."

After taking a deep look at Tezuka Kunimitsu of the Seishun Gakuen team, Sanada Genichirō said in a deep voice.

Then he followed the big team.

Step!

At this time.

Kitagawa seemed to suddenly remember something and stopped abruptly.

With an exceptionally sunny smile on his face, he turned around and looked at Niou Masaharu who was playing with Kirihara Akaya.

"I almost forgot to say what the mysterious reward is."

"Senior Yagyu is a one-day trip to the haunted house."

"Senior Niou is playing tennis with me for a day."

The moment the voice fell.

Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Hiroshi were devastated.

"How terrible!"

"I'd rather drink the special red water until I'm full!"

Kirihara Akaya shuddered subconsciously and breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm glad I didn't become the fastest.
