Chapter 55 The 55 City Competition Has Come to an End!

Chapter 55 55. The Metropolitan Tournament is over!

"What a wonderful match"

Standing in front of the net, Tezuka and Akashi stood and looked at each other.

That peaceful attitude was completely different from the previous strong and aggressive attitude.

"I hope I can play against you again next time."

Faced with Akashi's words, Tezuka stretched out his left hand and agreed.

He didn't understand why Akashi's attitude changed drastically for the time being, but he still affirmed the strength of this strong opponent.

In this duel, if he hadn't entered that magical state, he would have been defeated long ago.

"Congratulations on opening the "Zone", but now you'd better not be too obsessed with entering."

The two sides shook hands with each other, and Akashi stared at Tezuka and suddenly warned.

"Huh?"

"The more you want to enter, the easier it is to not enter"

"Finding the opportunity and conditions for you to open it is the key."

"Thank you for your reminder."

Tezuka didn't understand what Akashi said for a while, but it didn't stop him from thanking him.

If what he saw in that space before was correct, Akashi should have already activated this state.

And there was another person behind that door

The field of vision shifted from the field to the outside, and Tezuka looked at another opponent he cared about.

Shiratsu Chisei

(He also has the state called "Zone".)

There is no doubt that when he first fought with Shiratsu, the opponent really held back.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to tie with him at that time.

When he looked directly at Shiratsu, Shiratsu was also looking at him.

(He almost killed Ri-Akashi.)

(You are really growing unreasonably, Tezuka.)

(If you continue to grow like this, won't I be the only one in Teikou who can deal with you?)

Although Akashi won the game, it was also because Ota Akashi led Ri-Akashi to win.

If Ota Akashi didn't intervene, Ri-Akashi would have been helpless just now.

This was still in the Metropolitan Tournament, and Tezuka had already grown amazingly. It's even harder to say what will happen in the next Kanto Tournament.

He was looking forward to that time.

(Next time.)

At this time, Tezuka was thinking about something.

(Kanto.)

(The competition.)

(The winner!)

Even though they didn't speak, Shirazu and Tezuka seemed to communicate through the space of "Zone".

Afterwards, Tezuka and Akashi walked out of the venue and returned to their respective teams.

"Oh oh oh!!!"

"Very good!! Tezuka!!"

"You almost had a chance to win!"

The emotions on the side of Seigaku were extremely high. Even though they lost, Tezuka's performance directly made them excited.

Although they still fell in the tiebreaker, it also proved that Teikou was not invincible.

As long as they work hard, they may surpass the opponent sooner or later.

…………

"The final of the Metropolitan Tournament ends here!"

"The champion is Teikou Junior High School!"

"The runner-up is Seigakuen!"

Seigaku finally lost with a record of 0-3 and missed the championship of the Metropolitan Tournament.

Although they are a little annoyed now, they are more full of vigor for the future.

Only because Fuji, Inui Sadaharu's points grabbing and Tezuka's performance brought them new hope.

The teams that can participate in the next Kanto Tournament are Teikou, Seigaku, Yamabuki, and Hyotei.

I believe that they will have a more intense competition in the Kanto Tournament

…………

About a week after the end of the tournament

Inside the tennis club of Teikou Junior High School

"That guy still refuses to come out?"

Shirazu looked at Akashi sitting on the chair and yawned and said.

Since that game, Ri Akashi has been hiding in his inner space and has never come out again. It feels like he is autistic.

Therefore, during this period of time, the team competitions were handled by Ota Akashi himself.

When playing with everyone, Akashi did not show the power of the Eye of the Emperor and Zone, which made Kagami angry.

Even Kise and Midorima and others felt strange.

It's not that Ota Akashi is not good, but the playing style of Ota Akashi is completely different from Ri Akashi, which can be noticed by others at once.

It's fine if you said you didn't know before, but now you know everything, but you don't react. Who would believe you if you said you have no problem in your heart?

This has led to Akashi being talked to by the "club members" recently.

But Shirazu and Akashi, who know the inside story, find it a little funny.

The inner Akashi became autistic because he almost lost to Tezuka, how can the outer Akashi explain it?

Now the other self was hit because he almost lost the game, and he has been hiding and refusing to come out until now?

It's really hard for the outer Akashi to talk about this "scandal".

"Come to think of it, wasn't it you who caused my split personality in the first place?"

Looking at the idle Shirazu, the outer Akashi couldn't help but criticize.

"Sorry, I really didn't mean it at that time."

"I always felt that I could fight, so I fought, without considering your factors."

"I'm glad you endured it, otherwise I might really feel guilty for the rest of my life."

Thinking back to his childhood memories, Shirazu showed an apologetic and regretful expression, and the whole person was a little lost.

At that time, because of the "New Seamless", he could create "extra-dimensional" skills from time to time.

Even though he knew in his previous life that the "different dimension" ball skills had terrible power, he still underestimated its effect and didn't take it seriously.

So, he almost made a big mistake. He used a certain "different dimension" ball skill on the young Akashi at that time.

At that time, Akashi was still young. Even with a high level of education and a luxurious family, he was still a child. The result of facing the "different dimension" was that Akashi had a mental breakdown.

But fortunately, the mental blow to Akashi turned out to be that he felt that the "different dimension" ball skills were too powerful and could not be matched, so he had excessive anxiety and eventually led to split personality.

But even so, Akashi still received treatment in the hospital for more than half a year before he could come out.

At that time, Shirajin realized how terrible the "different dimension" move was. If it was another person at that time, I'm afraid that person could still be conscious and awake.

Since then, he has never played the "different dimension" ball skills again.

He has not even entered the "New Perfect Fit".

"Don't worry about it. It's over."

Akagi didn't say the deeper words. When he faced the "different dimension", he felt like he had walked through the world of "death".

The "dragon" that covered the sky and the sun seemed to exist in reality. Its pressure alone suffocated him and made him unable to move.

He did feel that he was "dead" at that time.

But in the end, as if he had made some judgment, he survived. However, at that time, he didn't care about the life and death issue, but was more anxious about why Shirazu was so powerful.

When he thought that his tennis skills couldn't keep up, the young Akashi was very anxious.

So, Ri Akashi was born.

"And over the years, I've gotten used to getting along with him."

"Although he is more arrogant, I believe he is not bad."

No longer talking about the heavy topics in the past, Akashi then felt that this was not a bad thing.

Watching another self living, there is also a different feeling.

"Then I suggest you beat him up."

"Use tennis."

Thinking of Ri Akashi's fragile mentality, Shirazu was somewhat relieved.

"He won't accept it."

Ota Akashi was not in a hurry, but said calmly.

He was waiting.

Waiting for the other self to come out and face him.

"I will find a chance to explain the questions about Kagami and the others later."

"Otherwise, they will ask endless questions, which is always worrying."

"It will affect the training."

Seishun Academy!

This "dark horse" that has fought its way up from the competition even performed very well in the match with Teiko, which made them a little high-spirited.

"Bullmaster, everyone has gathered."

"Oh, are they all here?"

Yamato looked at the members who gathered around him, and thought of what would happen next and couldn't help but say with joy.

The first row was the first grade standing in the front, and the second and third grades were arranged in order of height in the back.

"Hey, Oishi, do you know why the coach and the club called everyone to gather together?"

"How should I know?"

"Maybe to strengthen the training?"

"Or arrange a new school ranking competition?"

"It may also be to let A-gan research new nutritional juice"

"Wow! Fuji, you are such a devil! Don't remind me of such terrible memories!"

Many people have doubts about this gathering.

Even the second and third year seniors did not get the "inside information" from Yamato.

"Hey!"

"Since everyone is here, I will announce something now."

Looking at the young people in front of her, Ryuzaki Sumire also found that she was too rigid in the past.

Being a coach who does not pay attention to the situation of the members is really irresponsible.

"The Kanto tournament will start in a while."

"But I will be traveling with my family later, so I can't accompany you any longer."

"Therefore, I found an old acquaintance and asked him to temporarily replace the coach to help you train while I am away."

Ryuzaki Sumire then announced the "important matter", which caused a lot of discussion.

"The coach is not here?"

"Who does the coach know? Who could it be?"

"Is his level high? Don't give him random orders when the time comes."

………….

"Don't worry, I'm sure you have heard of his identity."

"If he comes to be a coach, I think I can't match ten of him."

"Come in! Nanjiro."

Ryuzaki Sumire listened to the doubts of some people and couldn't help laughing.

It's no wonder that the once "strongest" tennis player comes to coach you.

"Hello, boys."

A middle-aged man wearing a black monk's robe and looking messy walked in from the door.

"Nanjiro?"

"Could it be that you are Echizen Nanjiro?!!"

While the others were still confused, Inui Sadaharu was so scared that the notebook in his hand fell to the ground.

Samurai - Echizen Nanjiro!

This legendary story can still be heard today.

Such a big man who is close to the world champion actually came to their school to be a coach?

What kind of blessing is this?

"Shh, don't make a fuss, it's all old news."

"Although I promised the old lady to help, I can't teach everyone."

"At least you have to let me see if it's worth being taught."

Echizen Nanjiro lazily scratched his hair and said bluntly.

With his status, any current tennis player who is an awesome player would have to face a formidable enemy.

Want his guidance?

Then we must first enter his Dharma eyes.

At least there must be.

World-class potential or something that makes him interesting?

Just like his son who is living in the United States.
