Chapter 55
Chapter 55 : The final begins
On the way to the match venue, everyone in Hyotei met Yamabuki led by Kanya Banda.
“Old man, long time no see.”
Sakura Taro took the initiative to say hello, and he still had a certain amount of respect in his heart for this old predecessor who was not low in reputation and strength in the tennis world.
“Oh, it turned out to be Coach Sakura. It’s really been a long time since I saw him, but if I say so, I don’t want to meet you Hyotei in my heart.”
Gan Bantian also said with a smile, giving people the feeling of a smiling tiger.
In most cases, he has this expression. After decades of experience, there are few things that can disturb his mood.
“Anyway, Hyotei and you Yamabuki are going to have another showdown.”
Sakura Taro said lightly.
In the Tokyo competition, Hyotei and Yamabuki are old opponents, but in the multiple clashes between the two schools, Yamabuki is more often the loser.
“Then I will ask you Hyotei to show mercy later. This year, Hyotei, you have produced a lot of good seedlings. I don’t know if Coach Sakaki can let us Yamabuki a little bit.”
Miki Banta also glanced at Youyun and others behind Sakura Taro, a gleam of light flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes.
“It’s just some younger generations who still need to grow up. It can’t be compared with the Yamabuki led by your companion.”
Sakura Taro was unmoved.
…..
Before you know it, people from both sides have arrived at the match venue.
Sakura Taro and Bantian also stopped talking, and led the team behind them to their respective resting areas.
With the two players submitting their respective lists of players, the match officially began.
“The final of the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament, the match between Hyotei Gakuen and Yamabuki Middle-School, officially began.”
“Now we will start the match of the second doubles. Both players are invited to play.”
The referee’s voice sounded.
“Go, Oshitari, Yueren, this match is the first challenge you face. If you want to become stronger, you can just break through with your own strength.”
Sakura Taro said.
“Yes, coach.”
Oshitari Yuushi and Mukahi Gakuto responded and got up and entered the match venue.
And the other half is blowing inside the camp.
“Watanabe, Saito, this match is up to you.”
Gan Bantian also said.
“Don’t worry about your old man, leave it to us.”
Watanabe and Saito have confident smiles on their faces, playing doubles, they are very confident of themselves, even if the opposite Hyotei is a strong school in the country.
After the two said, they also walked into the arena.
“South, East, you have to take a good look at this match, especially the tactics of Watanabe and Saito in the match. If you can learn it, it will be good for you in the future.”
Ms. Bantian also turned to look at the two first-year students behind him, and said.
The two first-year students who were also called by Ban Tian Qian, one is named Minami Kentaro, and the other is called Oriental Masami, which is the Yamabuki national-level doubles called “Potato Hero” in the original book.
Although they are still only in the first grade, with Bantian Kanya’s vicious eyes, they have long seen the doubles talent in them, and they have begun to focus on training them.
“Okay, old man.”
Minami Kentaro and Dongfang Ami were shocked, but still agreed.
They are a little strange. Usually, Watanabe and Saito have been teaching them doubles, and Watanabe and Saito are generally doubles one, why this time doubles two will appear.
“Nan, Dongfang, the opponent this time is not at the same level as before. Take a good look.”
Ganya Bantian was so mature, how could he fail to see what the two of them were thinking, and once again reminded him.
“we know.”
Hearing Kanata Banta reminded them again, Nan Kentaro and Oriental Masami finally got serious. They understood the character of Kanata Banta and would never do meaningless things.
Today, if they so solemnly instructed them, then there must be his reason.
“It’s actually two of them, old man, you really are an old fox.”
Sakura Taro changed the expressions of the two players in Yamabuki’s field, and then recovered his calm.
The moment he saw Saito and Watanabe appear on stage, Sakura Taro guessed what Bunda was thinking.
Saito and Watanabe, a pair of nationally famous doubles, how could he not know that when Honshu and Kawasaki were originally placed on doubles to face them, Sakura Taro was ready to give up this point.
Although Honshu and Kawasaki have good doubles experience, tacit understanding and cooperation, Saito and Watanabe can play the first doubles position in the Yamabuki Middle-School tennis club, which is famous for doubles. These things are only stronger than them.
And Yamabuki’s other doubles, although not as good as Watanabe and Saito, are still stronger than Honshu and Kawasaki.
The doubles of Honshu and Kawasaki are stable, and their lower limit is very high, but similarly, their upper limit is also very low. Their doubles do not have their own style, and they do not have the stunts to comeback. They want to defeat the strong with the weak. Basically impossible. *
