These tragedies cannot be attributed to human error or intentional acts.
It can only be said that it was the timing, fate, and circumstances that led to this outcome. But Niou at least hoped that Echizen Ryoma would not have such an ending. After all, this child was Echizen Nanjiro's son!
However, this child's talent is truly remarkable. For someone with such talent, Niou really doesn't want to see him suffer a huge setback here, or have his tennis career cut short. That would be too unfair to him. Although the other side wouldn't actually do that, he still needs to give the necessary reminders!
This is what he should do as a senior player, and also what he should do as a tennis player and a captain. The necessary reminders are essential.
It was only at this moment that Ryoma Echizen began to see Masaharu Niou in a new light!
This person, completely different from what he remembered, also displayed a completely different style and demeanor today—
"Senior Ren-ou, thank you so much for everything you've thought of for me!" The young man said this earnestly and sincerely.
He was very grateful for everything Niou had done.
He used to just care about a captain, but now he really thinks this person is great. He deserves everyone in the world to be good to him because this person will reciprocate with 100% or even double the care and sincerity!
How could anyone bear to hurt this person?
"It would be best if you could understand my good intentions—"
Renwang laughed. To be honest, he was initially a little worried that this little guy would follow him around, unwilling to do anything or anything.
That's wonderful. Everything is the best of fate, and everything is the best ending.
Today's match is, in the end, just a match!
"I won't take up any more of your time. I wish you a successful start, a safe journey, and a safe return—"
These words may sound like empty talk, but they are also very sincere and passionate.
"Well then, I'm off to the competition—"
The boy straightened his hat and left his seniors' side without looking back. Ryoma Echizen was the youngest member of the Neon Team, and the only other student of similar age was Kintaro Toyama, a first-year student.
Although his opponent, Plans, was also a first-year junior high school student, but—
Because of the height difference, they genuinely felt that Ryoma Echizen was more like a worrying little kid.
"Little one should be alright, right? He beat that guy last time, he'll definitely do it this time too, right?"
Ryoma Echizen's seniors were yearning for a result from those around them, but until the true outcome of the match was revealed, no one could definitively tell him, "You're right, we think so too."
Everything is unknown right now!
Even if they admire Ryoma Echizen and think he's incredibly talented, it can't erase the panic in their hearts. After all, this place and this stadium have witnessed too many outstanding people!
There is only better here, no best!
Even though they had great confidence in their little one, they dared not show any ecstatic joy as they passed by. To be honest—
Many people in this world are quite powerful. If they think they're invincible and win, that's fine; it'll just add an interesting little tidbit to their little one's journey. But if they lose, all the consequences and all the negative feedback will crash down on their little one like a giant wave.
Whether Ryoma Echizen can handle it is another matter, but as a senior, he shouldn't do this. He shouldn't cause such a big problem for his junior just because of his own selfishness. That's wrong!
So no matter how excited, happy, or eager they are to know the outcome of certain events, they must hold their breath, do nothing, and stand quietly here, acting as a gatekeeper or a support system!
"Your friendship is even better than I imagined. But if you want to cheer, then cheer! This guy's physical condition and abilities are even better than you thought!"
Niou said this as he looked at the Seigaku members who were about to lose their patience.
This isn't an attempt to elevate anyone; he genuinely believes that Ryoma Echizen is a good tennis player.
Although his strength has not yet fully grown to its peak, that is only because he is limited by his current age and physical condition. There is nothing he can do about it, since he is only 12 years old and has not even reached his ideal height or the strongest level. It is normal for him to be in this situation!
He has a long time to grow and hone his skills, and today's match is a great opportunity for him. Although he has seen this opponent before, just because he has seen and played against him doesn't mean he can win every time!
Even if we lose by accident this time, it doesn't matter. Who would want to carve something on a 12-year-old child who can participate in a world-class competition?
Excessive criticism can make people feel that these people are being petty and unreasonable, so please be bold and think about yourself and cheer on the person you want to cheer for!
If there are more storms and doubts, they will only be directed at him.
As a captain, one should shoulder more responsibility. This was true for Tōten, and it remains true now. As the former captain of Rikkai, he was responsible for his team to the end; now, as the captain of Echizen Ryōma, he is still the same. He won't treat anyone differently because of past events. So, if there's something you want to do, do it openly and honestly. It's all okay!
"Is that okay? But wouldn't that cause you more trouble? What if some people really go too far?"
Although they were delighted by Niou's words, they also needed to be kind people.
We cannot take advantage of King Ni's words; that would be unreliable and dishonest.
