Net King: Nioh Phantom

Playing doubles with Atobe again, Nioh also had a different feeling due to the improvement of his doubles partner.

The last time, they had just prepared a preliminary doubles match, and agreed on how they should respond to certain situations in qualifying...

At that time, Atobe had no idea about doubles partners. The question is that he doesn’t know Niou very well.

But now, Nioh clearly feels the"echo" from his doubles partner on the court at this time.

Stepping and running, passing by.

Boom - nice cover!

With the help of the cover of the doubles partner's body and movement, the tennis ball burst out of the artificial"dead spot" and rushed to the other side of the court.

Snapped!

Maori looked at the tennis ball that rolled on the ground a few times and then stopped with some regret.

"It’s been less than a week...I’ve made a lot of progress."

After retracting his gaze from the tennis ball, Jusaburo Mori said with emotion.

If we talk about the qualifying match, the two high school players gave them"polite and polite compliments" after the match."——Especially those two sentences by Ochi Moonlight almost completely copied the written language of various tennis magazine reports. So, now, Mori really feels that Niou and Atobe's doubles cooperation has improved a lot.

As a tennis player who has truly achieved synchronicity in doubles, there is no doubt that Hisaburo Mori has an"appreciation" of doubles coordination. boom!

In the third game, Atobe served first.

Now the right to serve is exchanged, and it is the player's turn to become wiser.

"……"

Ochi Yueguang, who was serving in silence, looked a little cold to the two junior high school varsity players on the other side of the net.

This"coldness" is not at all like the biting"coldness" of ice picks that Atobe gave to his opponents, but the deathly"cold winter".

And the most important thing is that Ochi Moonlight's"indifference" is not only towards his opponents, but also affects his doubles partners.

After this period of"double run-in training" between junior high school students and high school students, the junior high school players have almost got a general understanding of the high school seniors of the U17 representative team.

Ochi Yueguang's tennis prowess is very outstanding in doubles. Even if it occasionally"affects his teammates", his"temporary doubles combination" will not be completely suppressed by the combination on the opposite side of the net.

Because... Yuezhi is very aggressive! boom! boom! boom!

A tennis match without any special skills will usually be mistaken for a match without exciting scenes to look back on. However, the double match between Nioh and Atobe vs. Mori and Ochi can be used as a"case" on the"Double Showcase and Textbook".

Mouri and Ochi haven't played doubles together for a while. Today they partnered again, and their tacit understanding has not diminished but increased.

Atobe consciously studied doubles before the qualifying competition of the U17 training camp began. After the qualifying competition ended, he did not give up his"personal research" on doubles.

Even when the coaches at the U17 training camp allowed them to disband and return to school, Atobe did not forget to drag Renzu to the court to practice tennis - and also discuss the feeling of doubles.

#Ninzu: I was originally a singles player at first. I started playing doubles for the Hyotei Tennis Club. However, now I don’t want to discuss doubles with the director before the exam. Yushi: Although it is said to be a 'thousand unique skills', I have not mastered them. What a doubles skill! #

嗖~嗖~~

The whirlwind formed by swinging the racket blew up the dust on the court ground, and the tennis ball flew back and forth on both sides of the court with the sound of wind, as if it was a race against time.

Enjoyable!

Although Nioh and the others do not have the same tune, their"enjoyment" at this time is comparable to the"synchronic".

The pores are dilated and sweat is flowing down the neck...the feeling of relaxation is no less than that of a sauna!

During these days, the pressure accumulated in my heart has evaporated with sweat. boom!

Maoli felt so comfortable that he wanted to close his eyes. He stretched naturally during the double play.

"Mori-senpai, don't fall asleep——"

"It's not even bedtime yet!"

Seeing the seniors on the other side of the net playing doubles and preparing to move into the"sleep state", Nioh had to remind him. The situation is just right now. The four of them all have feelings for the other three players except themselves. Understand each other, so it is difficult to destroy the"balance" on the court without using their respective skills.

Because they understand each other, they face each other tit for tat, and try their best to hit the"most uncomfortable" position when the opponent receives the ball with every ball. place". But it is precisely because of this tug-of-war situation that they are now in a situation where they are physically tired and mentally excited.

Not only must they restrain themselves from using"skills that exceed training specifications", You also have to try your best to hit the tennis ball back from the other side of the net...

This not only tests the coordination of the doubles, but also the patience of the individual tennis players.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"I heard that we are going to change to a new training program tomorrow?"

The idea of ​​"doubles while sleeping" was rejected by the juniors, so Mori chose to start a new topic in doubles.

Bang!

"Ah, the final level of 'running-in training' is coming?"

After scoring a ball with a swing of his racket, Atobe asked without changing his expression.

Bang! Bang bang bang!"

"Mitsugu refused to reveal the information."

Yue Zhi replied

"But counting the time, the overseas training camp has come to an end."

Bang!

Although the high school player is breathing much faster now than before the start of the doubles, it is not a big problem for him to speak in a steady voice after swinging the racket.

After all, this is not the main match of the doubles. Although the two sides are fighting fiercely, they are angry. not big

"Don't look at me, I don't know what's next"

"Yukimura and Byoin-senpai didn't know either - Coach Mifune probably wanted to give us a 'surprise'."

Although Nioh knows what will happen next, it is not easy for him to explain it to Atobe and the others now.

Theoretically speaking, apart from the coaches, there are only Mitsuya Akuto and Yanagi Ren in this overseas training camp. The second one knows what the next"training project" is.

Of course, Inui Sadaharu, who is not currently in the overseas training camp and is probably still on the way to the training camp, may also know something about the situation.

"……I don't think the players on the representative team want that 'surprise'."

Although he still didn't know what the"surprise" was in that"training project", Atobe resisted instinctively. His insight issued a warning.

"Who knows, maybe there will be nothing tomorrow……"

After treating the doubles training as"fun", they started chatting while playing. time flies——

"Swing hard! If you still can’t hold on after ninety minutes, start running!!"

On the radio, Coach Mifune's voice came

"In three minutes, tonight's training time is coming to an end!"

But what's different from the past few days is that the head coach is not in the monitoring room watching the players conduct doubles training. He came to this big stadium in person.

Bang!

"scared me~"

"My hands almost shook just now...it turned out to be a recording playback! Shuji

Taneshima, who said he almost shook his hands, said in a relaxed tone.

When he said these two sentences, he swung his racket very smoothly to fight back the tennis ball with strong spin from the opposite side.

"Senior, what do you call trembling hands?!"

Taneshima Shuji's doubles partner hadn't complained before Kirihara Akira, who was on the other side of the net, shouted out.

"I would rather believe that the deputy minister’s hands are shaking!"

Kirihara snorted and said.

The"double training" he was doing tonight made him feel very clearly how difficult high school seniors are.

He"matched" Genichiro Sanada for"double training· After connecting to the position of"opponent", Kirihara naturally worked hard towards the goal of"killing the deputy minister".

He felt that he was not just being crazy - in tonight's doubles training, his doubles partner was very responsible and had good tennis skills. Tokugawa Kazuya-senpai is quite good!

The second-year ace of Rikkai University thought to himself that he and Minister Yukimura will definitely have a tacit understanding. Judging from the situation of the first"free doubles", his Yukimura-senpai and Tokugawa-senpai also have a tacit understanding..

So rounding it all off, in short... Kirihara thought that he and the black-haired high school senior could work well together!

However, no matter how beautiful he thought before the doubles started, he never expected that his performance would be"compared to others"."Relatively plain" Tanejima-senpai is so difficult to deal with!

【Damn it, are all Bai Mao so good at doubles?!! ]

Gritting his teeth.

During the nearly ninety-minute doubles training session in the evening, Kirihara felt the pressure from his white-haired high school senior who was so comfortable in his heart.

"Don’t relax during the game……"

"Are you right, little Sanada?"

"Shuji Tanejima, who graduated from the"Graduation Class of Paddling", asked his junior high school doubles partner in a friendly and easy-going manner.

"That’s it, Tanejima-senpai!"

These days of"running-in training" have not changed Sanada's previous firm belief and persistence, but it has made him change some of his previous thoughts.

For example, Sanada's impression of his doubles partner Taneshima-senpai at the time... almost changed from""Pass, the crumbling edge of the cliff" quickly rose to the limit of"full score, the end of the broad and lofty sky"!

Ps, Tanejima-senpai will still be serious when he should be serious, after all, this is no longer the paddling in qualifying. It's time (sullen face).
