Tennis: My Body Is The Sheath Of The Sword! I Am The Sword Bearer On The Court!

Chapter 191



0191 Neon U-17 invitation letter! Could it be that Kitakyuu is here to attack us from a lower dimension?!

The next day.

Kanto Tokyo.

Hyotei Academy Tennis Club.

Atobe Keigo sat in the rest area of the training court with a gloomy face, panting.

He had just finished 2 hours of training, and the game between Kitakyuu and Yukimura Seiichi in the national tournament finals yesterday kept emerging in his mind.

Even though this year’s national tournament has ended.

However, the feeling of frustration is not so easy to erase.

For him, the current training makes him feel a little lost.

And similarly.

Fuji Shusuke and others not far away, although they completed their training in the training court as usual.

But their state is obviously quite different from when they were preparing for the national tournament.

The Hyotei regulars all fell into a slump.

Suddenly

“”All the players, assemble!”

The voice of coach Taro Sakaki sounded. Atobe

Keigo and the others looked at each other in surprise.

They saw that the other party was holding a bunch of things that looked like letters, and his face was full of excitement.

This made them even more surprised.

Did something happen?!

But they reacted quickly.

Within half a minute, they came from different training courts, holding rackets and stood in front of Taro Sakaki.

“”Coach, what’s wrong? You seem very happy?” Akutagawa Jiro asked curiously. Sakaki

Taro nodded heavily and distributed the”letters” in his hand to Keigo Atobe and others one by one.

“You will know after you take a look!”

After receiving it, Keigo Atobe and the others opened it without hesitation.

But when they opened it, they realized that it was not a letter, but an invitation letter!!

“Neon U-17?! This is……An invitation letter from a training institution?!”

After reading it, Fuji Shusuke looked up at Taro Sakaki in amazement and spoke.

Taro Sakaki nodded again:”That’s right! Neon U-17 training camp! I checked it before coming here! Neon U-17 training camp is far from being as simple as the ordinary tennis training institution you imagine!”

“In the past, it mainly recruited high school students! The purpose of the training is to select a team full of talented players to compete in the U-17 World Cup every two years!!”

“And this U-17 World Cup is also the fastest way for you to get in touch with the world’s top competitions!”

“It can be said that once you are selected into the team, you will face the world’s tennis genius!”When

Atobe Keigo and others heard this, they couldn’t help but burst into excitement.

The world’s tennis genius!!

This is simply…

So exciting!!

Taro Sakaki was not surprised by the expressions of Keigo Atobe and the others, and slowly spoke again:”Everyone! This invitation letter is obviously not just for you!”

“As long as the players have performed well in this year’s national competition and demonstrated both talent and strength, they will definitely receive it!”

“And this is most likely your next match against other teams after the national competition!”

“This time!! I believe you can win!!”

Keigo Atobe and the others were already full of fighting spirit.

They didn’t hesitate at all and shouted loudly:”Yes!!”

When Taro Sakaki left after delivering the invitation, Fuji Shusuke came to the rest area and sat down with the invitation.

He took out his mobile phone from his jersey jacket.

After hesitating for a moment, he still made a call.

But no one seemed to answer the phone.

Until it was about to be disconnected automatically.

“Fuji?”Tezuka Kunimitsu’s slightly panting voice came from the phone.

Fuji Shusuke’s eyes softened and he was about to speak.

Suddenly, a hand”grabbed” his phone away.

“Is it Tezuka?” The appearance of Atobe Keigo gave Fuji Shusuke a headache.

He did not blame the other party for”stealing” his mobile phone.

Because with Atobe Keigo’s character, he would not do such a thing, unless there are special circumstances.

For example, the phone call between him and Tezuka Kunimitsu now.

Atobe Keigo obviously wanted to”show off” that he had received the invitation letter from Neon U-17.

After Atobe Keigo turned on the speakerphone, Tezuka Kunimitsu’s puzzled response came from the phone:”Atobe? Are you looking for me? What’s the matter?”

Atobe Keigo raised his signature confident smile at the corner of his mouth, and said loudly:”Tezuka! It seems that you haven’t received the invitation letter yet! But I have already received it!”

“Invitation? What invitation?”

“Invitation letter to the Neon U-17 training camp! Haven’t you heard about it? I can explain it to you! But the premise is that you must attend after receiving it! I will definitely defeat you completely in the training camp!!”

“……”

His bold words silenced Tezuka Kunimitsu on the phone for a few seconds.

But soon,

Tezuka Kunimitsu’s voice sounded again:”So you are talking about the invitation letter of Neon U-17…….I think you must have misunderstood, Atobe! There is no way I could have received this invitation!”

“because……I have joined the U.S. U-17! Including Xiao Jin, Akutsu, Tachibana and others! Beijiang is the person in charge of recruiting U.S. U-17 junior high school students!”

“So, the next time we meet will probably be at the U-17 World Cup!”

“I believe that with your ability, you can become a member of the junior high school representative to participate in the competition!”

“Okay, I’m going to continue training! Tell Bu Er to keep going!”

“Snap——”

After Tezuka Kunimitsu hung up the phone, Atobe Keigo and Fuji Shusuke both widened their eyes.

What does that mean?!

U-17 USA?!

Tezuka Kunimitsu and the others actually joined U-17 USA?! Kitakami is also the person in charge of recruiting junior high school students for U-17 USA?!

Atobe Keigo and the others looked at each other in disbelief.

So!!

They have always been frogs in a well!!

In their eyes, the place that could help them step onto the U-17 World Cup stadium.

Kitakami has already been exposed to it!!

Moreover, they can believe it!

Kitakami is definitely one of the”world’s most talented players” mentioned by Taro Sakaki!! But what

Atobe Keigo and Fuji Shusuke didn’t know was that even though they had already raised Kitakami to an unattainable height in their hearts.

But he was still not a genius player who could be summarized.

Atobe Keigo now just felt like a clown.

After returning the phone to Fuji Shusuke in shame and anger, he continued to train with his racket in hand with a red face.

He has completely entered a kind of”self-abuse” training state.

There is only one thing he wants to do!

That is to make himself a junior high school student of the Neon U-17 team, and win the victory that belongs to him in the eyes of the whole world!

Fuji Shusuke sighed, his eyes flickered and whispered to himself:”Are we behind again?……Tezuka! You’re right, I really should work harder!”

At the same time, in the locker room of the Rikkai University Tennis Club,

Genichirō Sanada and others held the invitation letter of Neon U-17 in their hands, and looked at Yukimura Seiichi and Niou Masaharu in front of them with complicated expressions.

Just now, they excitedly took the invitation letter of Neon U-17 training camp and found Yukimura Seiichi and Niou Masaharu. They were also wondering why the two of them were not included.

After all, in terms of personal strength,

Yukimura Seiichi and Niou Masaharu are fully qualified to be invited!

But they soon learned from the two that the two had already joined the U.S. U-17.

And the person who recruited them was actually……

Northern Frontier!!

Yanagi Renji said softly:”That is to say, Tezuka and the other four have already received training from Northern Frontier and the U.S. U-17! They have even been to the U.S. U-17!”

“And Yukimura, Niou, you and Shiraishi Kuranosuke of Shitenhoji are the last three, right?”

Yukimura Seiichi nodded slightly:”Yes, so……Sorry everyone! Originally, Niou and I wanted to tell you proactively!”

“However, we didn’t expect that Neon U-17’s invitation letter arrived first!”

“The day after tomorrow, Niou and I will go to the United States with Beijiang to start training!”

“I hope to see you in the next U-17 World Cup!”

“At that time, we will play a good game as opponents!”

Niou Masaharu laughed, raised his eyebrows at Yanagi Renji and others and said:”Whoever loses will have to treat us! Hehe!”

The attitudes of the two made Sanada Genichirō and others realize that it would be impossible for them to persuade the two to join Neon U-17 and fight side by side with them. Kirihara Akaya said with a headache:”Ahhh! After all this time, Beijiang’s main purpose of playing in the national competition is not to win the championship!!”

“Instead, we are looking for talented junior high school players!!”

“Why wasn’t I chosen?!”

“Deputy Minister! Am I really that bad? I am obviously very strong too, okay!” (To read the most exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

His complaint made Yukimura Seiichi and Niou Masaharu not know how to respond.

Sanada Genichirō and others even changed their expressions.

Yes!

Does Beijiang’s selection mean that the other party has a high or low evaluation of the talents and strengths of all the Japanese junior high school students?!

If I was not selected by the other party, doesn’t it mean that my talents and strengths are not strong?[]

“Hum!! Kirihara!!”

“Why care about that guy’s opinion?!”

“All we have to do is to train as hard as we can, and enter the Neon U-17 team in the best condition and become one of them!!”

Sanada Genichirō’s cold snort and serious rebuke cheered up Kirihara Akaya and others a little!

Yes!!

If they are entangled in Kitakyo’s evaluation, how can they play tennis well!!

Seeing this, Yukimura Seiichi and Niou Masaharu were relieved.

They were afraid that after Sanada Genichirō and others knew the truth, they would be hit so hard that they would lose their fighting spirit.

As teammates for three years, the two also hoped that Sanada Genichirō could grow in Neon U-17.

After learning about U-17 from Kitakyo and others, they both knew very well that this was an unimaginable springboard for junior high school players to improve.

Seizing the opportunity and standing out.

For their future tennis career, it will be a qualitative leap.

Of course!

The junior high school players who received the invitation letter are not just the Hyotei Gakuen and Rikkai University teams. Rokkaku Junior High School

, Yamabuki, St. Rudolph, and Shonan Jounari in the Kanto region……

Shitenhoji Temple, Makinoto, and Shishigura in the Kansai Region……

There is even Higa Junior High School in Okinawa!

And these schools are obviously more or less connected to each other.

Shitenhoji, where Shiraishi Kuranosuke is, also learned the general situation from Shiraishi Kuranosuke.

Kitakyo is from the U-17 training camp of the United States.

And many people also know that Tezuka Kunimitsu and four others and Yukimura Seiichi and three others were all recruited into the training camp.

For a time, the Japanese junior high school tennis world, which had just ended the national competition, was once again turbulent.

Inoue Mamoru and Shiba Saori, who were still rushing to write the next national conference special, were dumbfounded when they got the news. No way?!

U-17?!

After checking the information online and roughly understanding what U-17 stands for, the two of them went straight to Fudomine Middle School without thinking.

No matter what!!

They must first learn from Kitakami what all this is about!!

Inside the Fudomine Tennis Club.

Kitakami looked at Inoue Mamoru and Shiba Saori who were eager to find him, and his eyes were indifferent.

“I know you guys want to know something!”

“But you may be disappointed!”

“Regarding the US U-17, it is not convenient for me to say much to you!”

“It would be better for you to interview the person in charge of Neon U-17. I can give you the address!”

“By the way, let’s find Kurobe Yukio whom you met at Qingxue! He is the coach of Neon U-17!”

His refusal made Inoue Mamoru and the others feel awkward.

Inoue Mamoru looked at the address written by Kitakyo, hesitated for a long time, and finally asked:

“Kitakami-san! Then can you tell me, did you plan to poach Tezuka and his friends from the beginning and have them join the U.S. U-17 training camp?”

“The national competition is just a……An excuse to cover up your actions?”

Beijiang smiled playfully at Inoue Mamoru’s bold question.

“Reporter Inoue, you are becoming more and more direct!”

“but……For the sake of knowing each other for a while! I can answer your question!”

Inoue Mamoru’s face suddenly straightened, and he picked up the recorder he had prepared long ago.

Kitakami pressed the other’s hand:”There is no need to record, because you may not choose to publish my answer in the magazine!”

Without waiting for Inoue Mamoru to say anything, Kitakami spoke again:”I came to Japan from the United States just for Tezuka!”

“Xiao Jin and Akutsu are both talented players discovered unexpectedly!”

“As the leader of Fudo Peak, it is only natural for me to train them and improve their strength, right?”

“At the time of the Tokyo Metropolitan Conference, the organizers of the U-17 World Cup suddenly added a rule that junior high school students must join the competition team!”

“Naturally, these junior high school students also became my candidates for the national competition!”

Kitakyo’s answer made Inoue Mamoru frown.

According to this statement, Kitakyo did nothing wrong.

But……

“Kitakyo-san, Tezuka-san and the others are Japanese junior high school students after all! Aren’t you asking them to represent the United States against Japan in the future?”

“As a Japanese player, shouldn’t I join the Japanese U-17 and become a talented player representing Japan to compete in the competition?”

But his righteous question was met with a sneer from Beijiang.

“Inoue reporter……As a journalist, you still cannot achieve fair objectivity!”

“They are just tennis players!”

“Where the US U-17 can help them is something that the Neon U-17 cannot do!”

“Japan’s status in the world of tennis reached its peak because of the emergence of Nanjiro Echizen!”

“But in terms of the influence of Japanese tennis alone, it is not even qualified to recommend a player to join a professional club or participate in a tryout!”

“Echizen Nanjiro relied on his own strength to break through the professional door one by one! Do we have to let Tezuka and others copy his path?”

Inoue Mamoru really didn’t know what to say.

Kitakami glanced at the other party.

“If you still can’t figure it out, you can go find Echizen Nanjiro!”

“You asked him why his youngest son was training with Neon U-17, but he was trying to refuse to become the coach of Neon U-17?”

“You ask him why his oldest son is now a member of the U.S. U-17 national team?”

“Ask him one last time! Does he care about his status in Japanese tennis?”

“If he answered these three questions, you would be able to figure it out.”

After hearing this, Inoue Mamoru and the other man were completely stunned and could not come back to their senses for a long time.
