Chapter 194: First and Second Updates - Players Quickly Earn U-17 World Cup Points...
Alexander Amadeus lost,
An unexpected, yet expected result.
The game was interrupted and stopped. At the beginning, the U-17 Japanese team was ready to contact rescue at any time.
As soon as something goes wrong, a corresponding plan is immediately generated.
Fortunately, Yagi Kei did not interfere, but just stood on the other side of the net and calmly watched everything that happened on the court.
Alexander Amadeus was released from the Shura Shinto Abyss.
I lay on all fours, barely supporting myself, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't fully support myself.
Amadeus's limbs went limp, and his entire body felt drained of strength. Even though he wanted to hold the racket tightly in his hand, the dull sense of touch and delayed reaction dealt a heavy blow to his heart.
"—General!"
Henry Nobel 30 practically ran into the arena, followed closely by Peter Lambiel and Albert Federer, who entered after the medical team.
Watching them examine Amadeus's body,
The U-17 team also entered the field and took a look at the state of the cat.
After confirming that everything was fine, he turned to look at Alexander Amadeus.
The Phoenix of Byodoin was negotiating,
It ended briefly with Alexander Amadeus being carried away on a stretcher.
Witnessing the U-17 Swiss team members hurriedly leaving,
Several U-17 players looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Yagi... Head Coach, this is a win, right...?"
"It seems, should, probably, maybe...?"
"...So, you defeated the world's number two professional Swiss player, Alexander Amadeus—?"
“I-Is that so…”
“…”
“…”
Following the world No.1 German professional player, Jurgen Barisavich Volker,
The second-ranked professional player of the Swiss team, Alexander Amadeus, also fell to the hands of Jibaimao.
"So terrifying..."
Use ['Shura Shinto: Abyss'] and ['Deprive & Devour'] on the UR NPC Alexander Amadeus.
When the player checks the status bar, there are two new skill icons:
[Darkness] and [Whale],
Hang it brightly under the player's skill column, complete the inventory, collect the copy challenge rewards,
The player looked up,
A bunch of NPCs gathered in the players' way out, and they wouldn't leave.
The sights that were all looking at me were complicated, and the emotions were intertwined and mixed together.
Player:?
Is this... assigning tasks to players?
The players waited and waited, the players waited patiently,
Everyone stared at each other for a long time.
The player who waited for nothing turned around silently and flew away from the NPCs' heads.
All that was left was a bunch of people looking up at the cat that flew away with a 360-degree Thomas spin.
"...There's absolutely no reaction, Yagi-kun."
"This is the demeanor of the head coach—"
"That's right! Guimen! Guimen! Guimen--!"
“——”
The battle between Kei Yagi and Alexander Amadeus eventually got out.
It's not the U-17 Japanese national team's big mouth,
Rather, it was the Swiss team's main player, Alexander Amadeus, whose condition had declined to such an extent that surveyors from almost all the national teams had noticed it.
"...Why did Alexander Amadeus's condition decline so horribly?"
For a while, it became an unsolved mystery in everyone's mind.
But not everyone is in the unknown.
The German and Greek teams that played against Yagi Kei,
Especially Jurgen Barisavich Volk and Zeus Iliopoulos,
After noticing Alexander Amadeus's decline in form and his reduced playing frequency,
Also, he played for the U-17 Japanese national team.
"It seems that's what happened."
Zeus Iliopoulos moved away from the telescope.
Standing next to him were the Greek team members with worried faces.
"Lord Zeus, you—"
Zeus Iliopoulos turned his head and looked at the starry night sky.
The stars are extremely bright, hanging on the dark night sky,
Looking at the sky, Zeus slowly tightened his palms, recalling bit by bit the actual feeling of holding the racket.
"It's okay, everyone. Now... I can already feel my strength gradually returning."
Zeus Iliopoulos smiled, "Everyone, instead of worrying about these things, why not think about our next opponent."
U-17 World Cup group stage, day two,
On the first day, against the Greek team,
The next day, they faced their opponent, the Australian team.
The seven members of the [Matsu] team, led by Kei Yagi, are restricted by the rules of the World Championship. Members who have already played in the game cannot play in other group stage matches.
"Then, the team that will play against the U-17 Australian team is the [Bamboo] team,"
"The members of Team [Bamboo] are—Jūjirō Oni, Kanata Irie, Seiichi Yukimura, Genichirō Sanada, Keigo Atobe, Shusuke Fuji, and Masaharu Niou. These are—seven people!"
The battle list was confirmed and announced by Mifune Nyudo.
"...I'm a little uncomfortable not hearing Coach Yagi's name..."
"After all, Yagi-kun has already played against the Greek team."
Irie Kanata adjusted his glasses with a smile.
“It’s about to start!”
Oni Jujiro shouted, and the [Bamboo] team's momentum suddenly rose.
"--yes!"
The second doubles team of S2 will be Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichirō.
S1 doubles one, Fuji Shusuke + Nioh Masaharu,
D3 Singles Three - temporarily decided to be Keigo Atobe.
"——boys,"
Before the game officially starts, at the last moment of admission,
Onijushirou's aura was fully revealed, majestic and magnificent, and he stood like a mountain between heaven and earth.
Everyone in the [Bamboo] team looked at him.
My final words before going on stage, as the captain of the [Bamboo] team,
What kind of shocking speech will Onijūjiro make?
"——Don't let down the hellish training that Head Coach Yagi gave us!"
“…”
“…”
Looking at each other, looking around in confusion,
Eh, eh…?
Help, why is there another useless cat-poisoning fan here?
Kijujiro's voice was so loud that even the U-17 Australian team on the other side could hear it.
J.J. Gorgias glanced at him coldly and said nothing to Onijujiro's words.
"...There is Noah's arrangement."
J.J. Gould carries the wishes of two people and his hatred for Australia.
"Victory...will definitely belong to him and Noah!"
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”
“——Boom boom boom boom!!”
“—clang clang clang clang clang!”
"Crack, crack, crack, crack—crack, crack!"
One after another, never stopping,
Demolition, demolition...
no,
Is this still a tennis court? Is this still a tennis match?
Confused, overwhelmed, unexpected, and completely unprepared.
U-17 Australian team - this is the first time they have encountered such a comprehensive and flat team.
I met the attack blindly, hit the ball blindly, and was knocked away along with the court.
“——Beep!”
"The game is over—!"
"U-17 World Cup Group B Match 2, JAPAN VS AUSTRALIA——"
"The final score is 3:0!"
“——JAPAN WIN!”
“…”
“…I lost.”
"To lose so casually..."
The U-17 Australian team lost the doubles match to the duo of Genichirō Sanada and Seiichi Yukimura.
Doubles 1 also did not get any effective points from the cooperation between Fuji Shusuke and Niou Masaharu.
And the last singles player sent out was J.J. Gorgias who tried to turn the tide of the battle.
When facing Keigo Atobe who has been reborn from the hellish training,
I can't even get a single cent of it right.
I almost lost my life!
"--how so?!"
"Noah, Noah's plan is absolutely perfect! How could anyone break it?!"
J.J. Gorgias was in complete disbelief. Even as he fell to the other side of the net, his strength nearly exhausted and barely able to hold on to his hands, he still refused to give in.
But he was not facing the good-tempered Fuji Shusuke, but Atobe Keigo who believed in his own gorgeous aesthetics.
"Ahhh—it's really not gorgeous at all!"
Touching the teardrop mole with one hand, Atobe glanced down, directly passing by J.J. Gorgias who was completely defeated in the endurance battle.
Well... to be honest,
If I were facing this guy in my past self,
I have never experienced the devilish training of breaking a cat into a chicken.
Then this one——the outcome is hard to determine,
However, he is no longer the same person he was back then!
J.J. Gorgias' current level was just an appetizer for him.
"—Immerse yourself in my magnificent ball skills!"
“—Boom boom!”
Overwhelming, a heavy blow,
Dust flew, bricks and stones collapsed,
After going through the special training of Jibai Cat, the U-17 members learned the essence of Jibai Cat.
——Art is explosion!!
The U-17 Australian team suffered a complete defeat, and the players were hit hard from all sides.
Noah, who rushed to the scene, heard only a low hiss.
"Brother?"
Tried to call J.J. Gorgias, but got no response.
Gorgias had collapsed on the court due to exhaustion.
The cheers from the audience are always reserved for the winners.
The second match of Group B of the U-17 World Cup
JAPAN VS AUSTRALIA,
JAPAN successfully advanced with a final score of 3:0!
“——”
"...In other words, tomorrow's opponent will be the world's second-ranked Swiss team."
U-17 Japan National Team, Public Lounge,
Once again, we gather here, with today's victory,
Although it was not obvious, I still pretended to pass by the cat immersed in fishing in circles.
And make enthusiastic discussion sounds, trying to attract the cat's attention.
Player: Fishing, please don't cue.
After a while, seeing that Jibaimao was motionless and completely unable to achieve their goal, everyone could only settle for the next best thing and discuss the upcoming third day's match and opponent.
"Yes, yes, the last opponent in the group stage is Switzerland,"
“…Hmm.”
After a moment of thought, Kirihara Akaya's expression, which rarely used his brain, attracted the attention of others.
"Akaye, what are you thinking about? It's actually your turn to think. Is the sun going to rise from the west tomorrow?"
Niou Masaharu came forward and grabbed a handful of kelp without any hesitation.
Touching his messy hair, Kirihara Akaya was very focused and serious.
“…Oh Niou-senpai! I was thinking, what I meant was—”
"The captain of the Swiss team? What about Mathis? He was beaten like that by Kei. Will they really come to fight us?!"
Although the words were said in such a tactful way, looking at Kirihara Akaya's expression, it was almost written on his face,
"——Do they really dare to come and fight us?!"
“…”
After a pause, everyone remained silent, their eyes focused on the scene.
Such self-confidence, such bullying,
How could this happen...?
"…It's Amadeus."
The kelp head, who was in the spotlight, was completely unaware and was still thinking seriously. He responded casually to the correction.
"Oh ok... Um, Amadeus!"
"Even Ama, a professional player, was beaten to a pulp by our Kei—so, those guys who saw Kei's strength must have been scared to death, hahahaha!!"
The increasingly rampant kelp-headed man laughed wildly with his hands on his hips.
The silent Niou Masaharu silently moved away, and the sullen-faced Sanada struck him hard with a 'crack'.
——Iron Fist Sanctions!
“Ah, it hurts!!!”
Looking at the kelp head hiding in the corner, covering the big bump on his forehead and drawing circles in the dark,
Yukimura smiled helplessly, "I'm sorry, Aka is too naive and has caused trouble to the seniors..."
“…”
They looked at each other, exchanged pleasantries,
"...No, it's not a big deal if it's troublesome or not..."
After all, it is true. No matter which normal person sees Jibai Cat's almost heart-pounding and terrifying strength——
No one would have the slightest thought of becoming his enemy.
However, at this time, a very important point appeared.
Although Jibaimao is extremely strong, he has already played against the Greek team!
Not only against Australia, but also tomorrow's match against Switzerland - I can't play at all!
And, damn, there is only one,
They...are not even close to the level of a chicken and a cat!
And the Swiss team, ranked No. 2 in the world, is very likely to have more than just one Alexander Amadeus!
All of a sudden, the slight joy after the victory over the U-17 Australian team was like a bucket of cold water poured over my head, suddenly cooling down and freezing.
“…”
“…”
"...I'm going to practice ball for a while."
"Wait a minute... I'll go too..."
Suddenly, I felt uneasy.
Although Jibaimao's strength crushed the U-17 Swiss team's captain, professional player Alexander Amadeus,
But as the second-ranked U-17 team, Switzerland,
Their strength is still unfathomable.
When we realize this, the relaxed, cheerful and entertaining atmosphere disappears.
The atmosphere cooled down, and everyone was involuntarily solemn.
This atmosphere continued until the third match of the U-17 World Cup group stage -
JAPAN (23) VS SWITZERLAND (2),
"—Are you ready, boys?"
“Ohhhhh!”
Once again being temporarily pulled in to replace the messy cat running around, Mifune Nyudo announced the list of the [Ran] team while holding the wine gourd.
"Against the U-17 Swiss national team, the [Lan] team will field the following members:"
"Byodoin Phoenix, Echizen Ryomasa, Mori Hisaburo, Tezuka Kunimitsu, Kito Nagashiro, Akutsu Jin, and finally—"
Noticing the gazes moving around them, Echizen Ryoma and Toyama Kintaro raised their eyes simultaneously.
Mifune said: "The last——"
"Echizen Ryoma."
Sanfunurudo opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
It wasn't him who spoke.
Behind him, a shadowy black figure, one hand in his pocket, turned his head, and his dark eyes looked straight at everyone.
When his name was called, Echizen Ryuu immediately looked at him with his cat eyes.
Being watched, Yagi Kei's expression did not change much.
Reach out your hand and touch the air lightly.
"The seventh person,"
"Echizen Ryoma."
“…”
"……I see."
Echizen Ryoma tugged at his hat, shifted his gaze slightly, and said,
Watching the backs of Team [Lan] disappear at the entrance,
Toyama Kintaro's fingers trembled, "Super, ahead of the times—he actually got there before me!!"
"Obviously, obviously—Mifune-san was going to call me just now! He definitely was going to call me!! How could he be beaten to it?! Ahhhhhh, I'm going to throw a tantrum!!"
Looking at Toyama Kintaro who was about to roll over on the ground, Shiraishi Kuranosuke was somewhat helpless.
Helplessly trying to coax her, she said, "Well...Xiao Jin, it's okay. After thinking about it, there will still be a chance to play, so I just haven't played yet..."
The more he spoke, the shorter his breath became, and he began to feel less confident.
"—Really, Shiraishi!"
With tears in his eyes, Toyama Kintaro quickly got up from the ground and came over in a dusty and messy state.
Shiraishi Kuranosuke: Guilty.
“Should, should…?”
Toyama Kintaro: (stares)
Although he felt a little reluctant, but as a bystander, he could see things more clearly. He adjusted his glasses and spoke softly.
"Toyama-kun, I understand your strong urge to play."
"But the final decision was made by Coach Yagi, right?"
“…”
Kanata Irie smiled and said, "If you really want to question me, Toyama-kun, why not consider asking Coach Yagi for his opinion?"
Toyama Kintaro looked at him silently, then turned his head silently and looked at the black-haired figure who entered the field with the [Lan] team and sat directly in the coaching seat.
Hey, should he go ask Yagi Yagi?
The player played [UR·Echizen Ryoma] very heroically as the last card to be played!
Although both of the available options are UR cards,
【UR·Toyama Kintaro】and 【UR·Echizen Ryoma】,
Even loaded with special buffs, ['protagonist aura'],
Only one is ['the original son, the protagonist of ***'],
One is ['Between the protagonist and the villain, a double superposition state!'],
In this case——Click randomly,
It’s decided to be you!
Come out, Echizen Ryoma!
The third match of Group B of the U17 World Cup
JAPAN VS SWITZERLAND,
D2 Doubles 2, Henri Noble III (Switzerland), Peter Lambiel (Switzerland) VS Echizen Ryuga (Japan), Kite Nagashiro (Japan),
D1 Doubles 1, Albert Federer (Switzerland), Randy Pugu (Switzerland) VS Tezuka Kunimitsu (Japan), Echizen Ryoma (Japan),
S3 singles three, Fernando Martin (Switzerland) VS Byodoin Phoenix (Japan)!
As soon as the players from both teams stepped onto the court, their aura was fully released.
Of course, it is the U-17 Japanese national team.
As soon as the D2 doubles team faced each other, both Henry Nobel III and Peter Lambiel looked unhappy.
Especially when their eyes turned to the black-haired figure sitting in the coaching booth of the U-17 Japanese national team,
"…Please give me your guidance."
"Of course, please advise~"
Echizen Ryomasa gave a fancy greeting, and his partner, Kide Nagashiro, simply adjusted his glasses and nodded slightly.
As the second round of D2 doubles began, everyone in the waiting area of the U-17 Japanese team, whose attention should have been on the court, involuntarily and uncontrollably shifted to the waiting area of the Swiss team.
Especially the figure with long black hair sitting there quietly, arms folded and eyes closed,
It was the professional player of the Swiss team - Alexander Amadeus!
"...It seems that Amadeus is not going to play in this round either."
"After all, he fought against Yagi-kun before, so it's completely understandable that he got hurt like that."
"Yeah yeah……"
There has been a lot of discussion on and off the field about Alexander Amadeus's decline.
Sitting there, I could hear it clearly.
The sounds rushed into my ears.
But Alexander Amadeus still looked the same.
Corresponding to it, diagonally and far away at the other end, it is the cat with dead eyes that slowly stretches out its evil claws without a word.
He took out a small bucket and a tennis racket from his backpack and started swinging the racket to fish. What a stupid cat!
Extremely active and extremely quiet, one active and one quiet, two opposites!
In the match between Japan and Switzerland,
In addition to the spectators who came to watch the match between the U-17 dark horse, Japan, and the challenger for the No. 2 team, Switzerland,
There are also many more players from other U-17 national teams watching the game.
In this match, no matter whether the Japanese team wins or the Swiss team wins,
For them, they will definitely be a more difficult opponent.
Ralph Reinhart, captain of the U-17 US national team, and Dudu Oufando sat at the back of the audience.
Kiko Valentine glanced out of the corner of his eye and also caught a glimpse of other familiar figures.
He moved his lips, "...behind the right side, if I'm not mistaken, it's the German team."
"Jurgen Barisavich Volker, and the two returning professional players..."
Ralph Reinhardt didn't look back, but squinted his eyes as he watched the players of the Japanese team on the field.
Echizen Ryomasa and Kitade Nagashiro,
But at the same time, he also answered Kiko: "There is not only the German team,"
"Three rows forward on the left, that's the Spanish team."
Upon hearing this, Kiko took a closer look - and sure enough, it was the Spanish team!
At the same time, Dudu Oufanduo also discovered several other figures.
"Those ones in front...are—"
"The French team,"
Ralph Reinhardt's narrowed eyes finally opened slightly.
"Leopold Camus, captain of the French team,"
"And Tristan Barthes, and Difti Pinlo."
“…”
“…”
I'll tell you one by one, it's just a JAPAN VS SWITZERLAND situation,
However, all the famous players, teams, and countries in the U-17 World Championships,
All arrived at the scene, all witnessed and watched,
What do you perceive?
The U-17 Japanese team members slightly tilted their heads and turned their faces.
Sharp, sharp, observing, judging,
Like a sharp blade, like flowing water, it passed through their cheeks and sides.
Finally, pointing to the only center,
——Yagi Kei.
They, these guys—
All of them are here for Yagi Kei!
