Legendary tennis, starting from signing up to talent

The next moment.

Mifune Nyudo glanced at the drink served and took a sip carefully.

After making sure that he didn't feel 'drunk'.

Then he boldly moistened his throat.

Then he looked up at Echizen Nanjiro and spoke slowly.

"I heard that you came back to Japan some time ago."

"I was dealing with some trivial matters today, so I had some free time."

"Plus, no one was home today, so I thought of you."

"To be honest."

"I actually want to know why you suddenly retired."

The voice fell.

The hand stirring the drink with a straw stopped.

"Sure enough."

"People's curiosity about this matter has not disappeared until now."

Looking at Mifune Nyudo, Echizen Nanjiro sighed.

"There are two reasons."

"One is that being invincible is too lonely, and the other is that there is no other way."

"So, it's so comfortable to go home to your wife and children and have a warm bed."

Then he showed a chic smile and continued.

"Is it a physical problem?"

The next moment.

Mifune Nyudo raised his eyebrows and asked.

Although he didn't know what was wrong with Echizen Nanjiro.

But for tennis players, most of the retirements are due to injuries.

"Are you lying to me?"

"Don't mention it."

"It's already come to this point, it's just a bummer to talk about it."

"But you, when did you stop drinking?"

Smiling and shaking his head, Echizen Nanjiro didn't continue.

Instead, he changed the subject.

"I just quit drinking today."

"I'm afraid that because of drinking again, I will be cheated into a pauper by a rascal."

He took a deep look at Echizen Nanjiro.

A touch of regret flashed in Mifune Nyudo's eyes.

After all, in his opinion, with Echizen Nanjiro's talent, if he didn't retire at that time.

Maybe now, the world tennis world will be dominated by him.

"Oh?"

"Which little guy is so smart and brave?"

"Really interesting."

It seemed like he had heard a very amusing joke.

Echizen Nanjiro burst into laughter.

"A first-year junior high school student."

"His name is Kitagawa."

Just the next moment.

After Mifune Nyudo said Kitagawa's name.

The smile on Echizen Nanjiro's face froze instantly.

Because this was not the first time he had heard this name.

But many, many times.

The most important thing is that his son Echizen Ryoma has always regarded him as a target.

"What a surprise~!"

"I haven't met him once, but I'm almost tired of hearing him."

Then he sighed.

"You, a rascal, weren't you also tricked into the Neon branch of HERO Tennis Club by that guy?"

With a trembling hand, Mifune Nyudo couldn't help but raise his voice a few decibels and asked.

After all, if it was just him, it would be fine.

But if the players he had trained were now his colleagues.

That would be really embarrassing.

"That's not the case. I haven't even seen this boy yet."

"Huh?!"

"Old man, aren't you in the Neon U-17 training camp?"

Hearing what Mifune Nyudo said, Echizen Nanjiro opened his eyes wide.

His expression was quite incredible.

"After the start of the U-17 World Cup this year, he was gone."

"If you have nothing to do, I'll introduce you to someone."

"It's better than being a monk who rings the bell."

The stone in his heart fell instantly, and Mifune Nyudo said solemnly.

Obviously, he was quite dissatisfied with Echizen Nanjiro's appearance.

Forget about retiring, it's really a waste of talent for a former samurai to become a monk.

"Forget it."

"I'm only thinking about training my stupid son to be a good person."

"If we really go there."

"My stupid son might even be lost."

He curled his lips.

Echizen Nanjiro said with a slightly sour tone.

He was obviously still upset about what Kitagawa had told someone.

"It's up to you."

"If I have a chance, I will teach your stupid son well."

"Well, the first thing is to make sure he doesn't retire easily."

"Well, it's getting late, I'll go home first."

He sneered.

Mifune Nyudo stood up, said something and walked out of the store.

"..."

"You've become a coach of a branch of a super-large tennis club that is one of the top three in the world, but you're so stingy."

"What has Kitagawa done to you?"

Looking at Mifune Nyudo eagerly,Then she left in a very quiet manner.

Echizen Nanjiro sighed in frustration.

But when he reached out and touched it.

The frustration on his face became even more obvious.

There was no doubt about it.

He had neither money nor a mobile phone with him.

He couldn't even ask Echizen Nanako or Echizen Ryoma to pay the bill.

As for the phone number, that was even more ridiculous.

"Am I indirectly being cheated by Kitagawa?"

He drank the rest of the drink in one gulp.

With one hand on his cheek, Echizen Nanjiro muttered helplessly.

"That sighing monk?!"

The next moment.

As soon as Akutsu, who came to pick up her mother Akutsu Yuki from the night shift, walked into the store, she saw Echizen Nanjiro.

"......"

"Young man, I see that you have amazing roots and extraordinary talents."

"As long as you pay for me, I will teach you a thing or two."

"I guarantee that you will soar to the sky in the future!"

Looking at the familiar face.

Echizen Nanjiro's mouth curled up a smile.

"Can you let me defeat someone?"

"Kitagawa, the first-year junior high school student who is the director and coach of the tennis club of Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School."

Looking at Echizen Nanjiro, whom he met for the third time, Akutsu asked directly.

As if afraid that the other party didn't know who Kitagawa was, he also explained it specifically.

"......"

The smile on Echizen Nanjiro's face froze for the second time.

The whole person didn't know what to say.

"It seems that you can't do this."

He said unruly.

Akutsu was about to walk towards the employee rest area in the store.

He didn't plan to say anything more to Echizen Nanjiro.

"!!!"

"I'll teach you!!!"

Looking at the cashier who had already walked up to him.

Echizen Nanjiro shouted loudly.

"Okay."

A slight smile appeared on his lips.

Akutsu immediately turned around and walked to the front desk to pay the bill.

[It seems to be much better than violence...]

"Ryōya."

"I now understand how you felt back then."

"Really, it's a little brat!"

Looking at Akutsu, Echizen Nanjiro's mouth twitched.

......

Somewhere in the world.

A teenager was leisurely eating an orange.

Well, eating an orange without peeling it.

But just as he finished the last bite.

"A-choo!"

He sneezed instantly.

"Who is talking about me?"

"It can't be that little brat?!"

Rubbing his nose, Echizen Ryōya couldn't help but mutter.

Then he subconsciously looked around.

After making sure that the figure he remembered clearly was not there,

he breathed a sigh of relief.
