"Is the weight of this racket not right..."
"Why is yours different from mine?"
"There are too many lead weights, right?"
There is still one month left before the start of the metropolitan competition. Naturally, Akashi and Momoi have already planned their next training methods. Having just won the regional championship, they also have so-called department expenses to spend.
Momoi selected rackets of different qualities for everyone to use.
For this reason, a lot of lead weights for wrist guards and ankles were also added.
As soon as they got the equipment, everyone couldn't get used to it.
Qingfeng, who used to be like a fly on the court, is now like a salty fish.
The Vulcan, who hit the ball hard every time and performed miracles, had a hard time swinging the racket.
Zi Principle has an expression that says "I won't play anymore" all over his face.
Kise also looked like he was suffering.
Only Kuroko, Shirazu, Akashi, and Midorima didn't complain.
"Hey!"
Trying to swing the racket and run, Bai Jin had to lament that his physical fitness needed to be improved.
Kise and Kuroko can be regarded as the weakest players, but due to their different physiques, the lead weights and rackets are arranged differently.
(The best thing about this world is that excessive exercise does not affect physical development.)
This is what I really want to complain about, Bai Jin thought to himself as he stared at the weighted racket in his hand.
In the original novel, Ryoma and Kintaro, who were only in their first year of junior high school, followed a group of people to a high school training camp for such high-intensity training, and it was outrageous that their physical development would not be affected.
Don't you see, even in the world of black basketball, Akashi has to prohibit everyone from having high-intensity confrontations and training during their junior high school period due to their physical condition, just for fear of any accidents.
The tennis king doesn't have that kind of worry here. If he can't practice to death, he will practice to death. Anyway, nothing will happen. After all, the intensity of confrontation in the game far exceeds the intensity of training.
It can only be said that the reputation of killer tennis is well-deserved. Without a good body, I am afraid that I will have to end up in the hospital after just one ball.
"Speaking of which, is it necessary to undergo such harsh training?"
Murasakihara followed a few others standing in the court for swing training, and reluctantly spoke.
In his opinion, there is no need to do these "useless efforts". After all, he has never met any powerful guy.
He can just rest on his laurels for a long time.
Hearing Murasakibara's words, Momoi grimaced. What she was most worried about happened so soon.
Although everyone in Teikou is in the first grade, they are all very good. Compared with other schools, this is simply not the same level.
Momoi was also afraid that they would neglect him because of this. After all, if he kept winning easily and had no opponents, training would seem unimportant.
Once you have this idea, you're in trouble.
But for a while, Momoi couldn't think of any good way to persuade her. She could only pray that the "sickness" wouldn't happen so quickly or that she would meet some powerful players early to suppress everyone's arrogance.
"You just haven't met a strong opponent now."
"Just looking at us here, aren't there so many people who can fight you?"
"Can you guarantee that the next opponent you encounter will be one you can handle?"
"Don't cry when you are about to lose. You don't want to lose in your heart, right?"
While Momoi was distressed, someone who had been silently waving his bat spoke.
Momoi's eyes lit up and he looked at the person who spoke.
noob……
She had to admire how Bai Jin could maintain such a serious and unconventional attitude under such circumstances.
When it comes to team training, Bai Jin can be said to be number one in terms of seriousness.
Whether it was basic training or intensive training, he never complained, but would complete it meticulously.
When Momoi was a child, she also knew that he would secretly practice more in private.
"Shirazu-kun...there really hasn't been any change...yet."
Kuroko swung the racket hard, and when he heard Shirazu's words, he couldn't help but think of the vow he made in the tennis club after meeting Akaashi.
"Murasakibara, as Shirazu said, you are too lazy."
"Be careful when you indulge yourself. Don't regret it later."
Midorima swung his racket to the rhythm and agreed with Shirazu's statement. He did not think that he was invincible.
If not, there will be very powerful players from other schools, but they haven't met them yet.
"Tsk..."
After smacking his lips, Murasakihara did not continue to be harsh, but continued to swing honestly, even using a little more force.
He didn't want to lose before the others. When the time came, no one had pulled their crotches, and he did it first. Thinking of that, he felt very shameless.
"Hey, I... hope... that day comes... soon."
Vulcan struggled to follow the rhythm of everyone's swings and said in a stiff tone. The quality of his racket can be said to be specially customized, so it is very difficult to pick it up.
"That's right..."
His words resonated with Qingfeng. Now Qingfeng is in the period of passion and has not yet entered the period of laziness, so he is very enthusiastic about training.
"That is to say, even you and I have not completely surpassed you, so don't lose to others before losing to me!"
However, Kise's speech made the first few people feel nervous.
Anyone can accept losing to anyone... but losing to Kise within the team is a bit hard to talk about.
This guy is a "rookie" who has only learned tennis for two months.
If they really lose to this guy, wouldn't it mean that they have lived so many years in vain?
Even though Kise has a unique talent for imitation, they don't want to lose.
"Hey! Don't speed up without permission!"
"Ha, Huo Zai, you are obviously too slow."
"It's just that your training is not enough."
"Asshole! That's so easy to say!"
Suddenly, the rhythm of everyone's swings suddenly accelerated, making the Vulcan a little miserable.
But the good atmosphere of conversation showed the unity of the team.
"Ah……"
Akashi kept up with the speed of swinging the racket and remained silent, but when he saw that everyone's mood was not low, he smiled happily.
He doesn't want someone to mess up now, as that will inevitably make him a pressure monster to supervise, but this approach can easily divide the team, and Momoi is not good at being a bad guy.
It was the best to be able to spend it like this without anything happening, otherwise he would have to let Bai Jin play bad guy.
"Hmm...that's great."
Seeing the prosperous atmosphere among these people, Momoi took the form and became happy.
The tennis club...is really good.
…………
In the following time, everyone continued to maintain the most basic training and also conducted appropriate intra-team competitions.
The lead weight wrist guards and rackets of varying quality that were originally attached to the wrists and ankles were now completely adapted to it.
I believe that when they unleash their full strength, their strength will increase a lot.
"Today's training is over!"
"How about going to the station for something to eat? I heard that a very good new restaurant has opened."
"good!"
"Yeah, I'll go too."
"Are Murasakibara going too? Where's Kuroko?"
"Can……"
"Where's Midorima?"
"I don't……"
"I'll definitely go. Anyway, you don't have a divination show to watch tonight."
"Where are Akashi and Shirazu?"
"You go first, Bai Jin, you can come to the club room later."
"ah?"
"Okay, by the way, you have made an appointment, why don't you invite Momoi to come with us? She is also a member of our tennis club."
"Hehe, what a touching suggestion, Xiaobai."
"Hasn't this been asked yet?"
"Then you go and take a seat first. Akashi and I will come back later."
