Chapter 72

"Morning."

Kamishiro Aki nodded and replied.

"Morning."

Then, Echizen Ryoma inserted a one-hundred-yen coin and selected a bottle of juice.

Immediately, the juice clattered down.

He picked it up, took a sip, and asked Kamishiro Aki, who was operating the vending machine.

"Did that guy go looking for you too?"

Kamishiro Aki selected a bottle of ice-cold cola.

"Clatter!"

He picked it up, opened it, took a sip, nodded, and said.

"Yeah, but I kicked him twice."

Seeing this, Echizen Ryoma stared blankly at Kamishiro Aki for a moment, then took another sip of juice.

Then, he spoke.

"Not bad. I really envy your height."

"That guy really went too far."

Echizen Ryoma is only one meter fifty tall.

Facing Aguni Jin, who is one meter eighty, there was truly no suspense.

Even though Echizen Ryoma was injured while protecting someone.

But in a one-on-one fight, Echizen Ryoma's build was no match for Aguni Jin at all.

At this moment, a girl with two braids ran over this way.

Kamishiro Aki recognized her at a glance.

It was Ryuuzaki Sakuno.

Sakakibara Tomoka came along too.

When Ryuuzaki Sakuno saw Echizen Ryoma, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, in a soft voice, she said to Echizen Ryoma.

"Ryoma, Captain Tezuka wants you to report back."

Seeing this, Echizen Ryoma nodded.

"Okay, I'll go back right now."

Then, he turned and said to Kamishiro Aki.

"Kamishiro, see you on the court."

Kamishiro Aki shook the bottle of ice-cold cola in his hand and smiled.

"See you on the court."

Afterwards, Kamishiro Aki turned and walked toward the Hyotei Academy reporting station.

At the same time, Sakakibara Tomoka stood frozen in place, staring at Kamishiro Aki's back and swooning.

"So handsome!"

"He must be Kamishiro Aki!"

"How can he be so handsome!"

Kamishiro Aki felt Sakakibara Tomoka staring at him constantly.

Goosebumps rose all over his body.

So, he quickened his pace and returned to the reporting station.

At the same time, all the Hyotei regulars had arrived!

He returned just in time.

Seeing Kamishiro Aki return, Sakaki Taro said to the staff.

"Hyotei Academy reporting."

Then, he took out a form and said.

"This is the match lineup."

Kamishiro Aki was standing right nearby.

He glanced at it briefly.

Doubles Two: Shishido Ryo and Otori Chotaro!

Doubles One: Akutagawa Jiro and Mukahi Gakuto!

Singles Three: Kamishiro Aki!

Singles Two: Nishinori Yushi!

Singles One: Kaido Takahiro!

This lineup made Kamishiro Aki somewhat surprised.

They actually didn't put Atobe Keigo in the match.

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki looked at Atobe Keigo.

Atobe Keigo noticed it too.

He simply saw him explain.

"This match, this great one will not be playing."

"So you must find a way to win the match."

But soon, Kamishiro Aki figured it out.

The reason Atobe Keigo did not appear was simple.

It was nothing more than wanting to save more energy to fight Tezuka Kunimitsu at full strength!

But he did not know if Seigaku would let him have his way.

The report ended.

Sakaki Taro led the entire regular squad of Hyotei Academy successfully into the waiting area.

And as soon as they entered, Hyotei's cheerleaders shouted as usual.

"Hyotei! Hyotei!"

"Victory! Victory!"

Indeed, having cheerleaders made all the difference.

Morale was still very important.

At this moment, Kamishiro Aki noticed the gaze of Aguri Jin.

When he looked over.

Aguri Jin made a killing gesture at Kamishiro Aki.

Seeing him like this, he Must Already have accepted the challenge.

In other words, Aguri Jin would face Kamishiro Aki directly at the Singles Three position.

Kamishiro Aki certainly would not let Aguri Jin be so arrogant.

He naturally had to counterattack.

He was seen making a thumb-down gesture followed by a throat-slitting motion at Aguri Jin!

Consider it a return gift!

After that, Aguri Jin made no other move and just stared at Kamishiro Aki.

At this moment, the referee shouted.

"The match between Hyotei Academy and Yamabuki Middle School officially begins!"

"Please, the Doubles Two players from both sides prepare!"
