Chapter 5 Is There Someone Missing?

Chapter 5 5. Is there someone missing?

"6-0"

"Shirazu wins!"

Until the end of the game, Vulcan was unable to hit back that super-fast return ball.

"Damn it! It was almost! It was almost!!"

His forehead was covered with sweat and he was panting violently. Although being beaten 6-0 was very annoying, what really made him care was the inexplicable return ball.

After trying again and again, he always felt that he would adapt soon.

But by the time he reacted, the game was over.

(This is your current weakness, Vulcan.)

The strong physical fitness seems to be unbreakable, but after all, there are shortcomings.

That is the difference in "skills".

Kagami does not have special "powers" like Akashi who has awakened the Eye of the Emperor or Kuroko and Aomine who have unlocked sight induction.

To put it bluntly, he is just a blank slate monster now, with nothing special about him.

Although he can rely on his physical strength to crush others, once his opponent has special skills and he cannot fight back, he instantly becomes a paper tiger.

Unfortunately, Bai Jin actually has moves that can control him.

Chidori

Yes, because the skill type is basically the same as the A-level ninjutsu played by "Hokage" Sasuke, Bai Jin named it "Chidori".

Although this thing can only be used to fight back, the effect is very obvious.

One of them is "fast" beyond common sense.

Shirazu has not yet tested the specific speed, but it is definitely beyond the reach of normal junior high school students.

He is so sure.

Because it’s difficult for him to catch the trajectory of the ball himself

He could only aim where he wanted to hit before swinging the racket. As for when the ball flew out, when it landed, and when it bounced, he couldn't see clearly.

Although using Chidori will be burdensome, turning him into a "Tezuka", there is no problem in hitting about 20 goals in a game.

You can tell from the fact that Kagami was beaten 6-0 by Chidori, and he almost played the whole game directly afterwards.

What does it mean to eat all over the world with one trick?

(However, his eyes seemed to be able to catch it the last few times.)

But there was something that Shiratsu was concerned about during this period. Kagami went from being dazed at first to being able to catch the trajectory of the ball a little later.

This means that he is gradually adapting to the speed of the "Chidori" in order to launch a counterattack.

But in fact, he may still be a little behind now, at least in terms of "insight", he doesn't respond so quickly.

"Your Chidori is still so sharp."

Akashi jumped down from the referee's chair and looked at Shirazu and asked.

"But you'd better not go over the limit."

Akashi just looked at Shirazu and ordered in a deep voice, his eyes looking at Shirazu's slightly red elbows and wrists.

"Hello!"

But at this moment, a shout came over, and Akashi and Baijin turned their heads to look at the source of the sound.

"I will come again tomorrow! Just wait for me!"

The fiery red aura enveloped his whole body, and the substantial aura filled him with a sense of oppression.

Kagami stared at Bai Jin and said in an "unkind" tone.

After saying that, he walked out of the venue.

"Hey, look, aren't we recruiting people?"

Saying this to Akashi, Shirazu wiped the sweat from his forehead and said relaxedly.

"It seems so."

Akashi turned to look at Kuroko's place, and said softly after noticing that the green and purple who had just been watching the battle disappeared.

…………

"Hahu...ha..."

Panting, he ran back to the classroom and packed his schoolbag. Just as he was about to pick it up and leave, Kagami bumped into two familiar guys in the corridor.

"It looks like he was beaten badly, Vulcan."

As if pretending to be a chance encounter after school, Midorima opened his mouth with an uncharacteristic rag doll in his hand. Next to him stood a silent Murasakibara.

"Hmph, stop rambling, I'll go to the club tomorrow, and that serve will definitely hit it back!"

Not caring why Midorima and Murasakibara were still here at this time, Kagami said aggressively, then picked up his schoolbag and walked towards the school gate.

"Luzai, are you planning to go too?"

"If you say I'm not interested, it's definitely a lie. I also want to take a look. I didn't expect there to be such a guy in my age group."

"Pfft, but I don't really want to go."

"Then you may have a lot less snacks in the future."

"Then I'd better go."

……………………

"Snapped!"

"boom!"

"Hey!"

"ha!"

At the corner of the street, Momoi looked at Aomine who was soloing against the wall with a tennis ball, and was a little surprised.

Mingming was showing a lack of interest before, but that changed immediately after watching the game.

He even said something like, "I'll go to the tennis club tomorrow!" He said it so decisively.

"It turns out Shirazu and Akashi are also in this school!"

While Qingfeng kept hitting the tennis balls that bounced off the wall, all he could think about was the scene he saw today.

He was no stranger to the flash of lightning in his eyes.

We had seen each other frequently when we fought against Bai Jin in elementary school, but unfortunately, he could only crack it a few times.

He was looking forward to tomorrow more and more.

………………

"Green-haired and purple-haired freshmen? Are they in the same class as Kagami? Are they both familiar with tennis?"

On the way home, Akashi, Kuroko, and Shirazu walked together. After hearing Kuroko's description, Shirazu seemed to know who was there.

Midorima Shintaro and Murasakibara Atsushi.

It seems that their match with Kagami today attracted them.

(I hope they can report by themselves, instead of being so arrogant that we have to find them)

(Aomine should be fine, and Kise. Ah, we have to find them one by one.)

"Your match with Kagami today was effective."

"I believe it will attract a lot of people."

Akashi obviously also considered the situation of the members, but he was not too worried.

He would rather have fewer members than some rotten fish and shrimps.

After all, it was the tennis club he wanted to rebuild, and there would be no room for any sand.

Those guys who gave up tennis after the game before should get as far away as possible.

"I didn't expect Shirazu-kun to have such a skill. It's amazing."

Kuroko was obviously also recalling the scene he saw today, and he spoke seriously.

With his talent, he didn't know if he would have the chance to reach that level.

A return beyond what the naked eye can see!

"Don't worry, it's just a short time. I've been practicing hard for a long time and finally got some skills."

Seeing Kuroko lowering his head in thought, Shirazu smiled bitterly and said frankly.

It's okay to just feed Kagami duck eggs, after all, Kagami is not really a strong player at the moment.

The strongest freshman at present is most likely Tezuka Kunimitsu, who opened the door.

Unfortunately, he is bound by the problematic rules left by Seigaku and cannot see the light.

Therefore, Shirazu is not too worried. In addition, they haven't gathered all the members here yet, so they don't have the leisure to observe people from other schools.

"By the way, Akashi, how long is the time given by the school?"

"Within a month before the start of the regional competition."

"It seems that there is still enough time."

As they chatted, Shirazu always felt that he had forgotten something...
