Chapter 117 There Really Is a Bear
At this time, President Kamogawa, with a smile on his face, gently put his hand on Nekoda Ginpachi's shoulder and slowly walked over.
Every step they take carries the weight of time.
His eyes moved between Luo Hao and Itagaki, and he began to introduce them to each other with a bit of pride.
“This is my dear friend, Ginpachi Nekoda.
When he was young, he was a good boxer.
He is the one who runs this Yoshio B&B." Chairman Kamogawa's words were full of respect for Ginpachi Nekoda.
Ginpachi Nekoda, this old man, although nearly 80 years old, his eyes still sparkle with sharp light.
He looked at Itagaki with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.
"I know you, Itagaki Manabu, the Japanese featherweight champion and the successor to Kuronouchi Ippo.
I watch every game you play."
Nekoda Ginpachi suddenly remembered something and frowned slightly, "Oh, by the way, speaking of the first step, why didn't I see him today?"
Upon hearing this, Itagaki immediately replied respectfully, "Ibu-senpai is currently training students at Kamogawa Boxing Gym, so he was unable to come.
He specifically asked me to give you his regards.”
Ginpachi Nekoda nodded to show his understanding.
He suddenly turned his gaze to Luo Hao.
"I know this young man too." Ginpachi Nekota looked at Luo Hao with a smile, his red nose standing out particularly under the light.
Luo Hao felt a little embarrassed when being looked at, he scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Old sir, you even know me.
I am not as famous as Itagaki-senpai, I am just a nobody. "
Upon hearing this, Ginpachi Nekoda burst into laughter.
He pulled out a magazine from behind his back. It was Luo Hao on the cover. It was the "Boxing Fan" published a few months ago.
"Luo Hao, if you win the next game, you'll be the Rookie of the Year in East Japan.
You are now very popular among the newcomers in the boxing world."
Luo Hao felt a little embarrassed by the praise. He scratched his head, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Ginpachi Nekoda had already walked forward and greeted Takamura, Aoki, Kimura and others.
"Takamura, you are the world boxing champion now. It really makes me, an old man, feel honored that you can come here for training and accommodation." Old man Maotian's words were full of admiration for Takamura.
Upon hearing this, Yingcun showed a smug smile on his face.
"Mr. Maotian, thank you for the compliment. You are the real senior.
I can't even begin to compare to your boxing skills."
Hearing this, Ginpachi Nekoda couldn't help but burst out laughing.
He patted Takamura on the shoulder and said, "Aoki, Kimura, you two should also work hard.
The younger generations have all caught up!"
Aoki and Kimura smiled awkwardly when they heard this.
Although they were somewhat dissatisfied in their hearts, they could only force a smile on the surface. They scratched the back of their heads and said with a smile: "Mr. Maotian is right. We will definitely work hard."
After everyone had packed up their belongings, President Kamogawa suddenly raised his arm and shouted, "Let's start the practice. Let's start with a 10-kilometer mountain run!"
As soon as these words came out, Aoki and Kimura's faces instantly fell, and Aoki even muttered: "Why are we running on the mountain road again..."
At this moment, old man Maotian shouted loudly: "Xiao Ba!" As soon as he finished speaking, loud dog barking was heard within a few seconds, "Woof woof..." Then, a big white dog trotted in front of everyone.
When Yingcun saw the big white dog, he immediately went up to it and gently stroked its head, "Xiao Ba, we haven't seen each other for several years!
Not bad, he looks quite strong! "
The old man Maotian turned to Xiao Ba and said seriously, "Xiao Ba, lead the way for them.
But be careful on the road and don't run into areas where there are bears, okay?"
The big white dog Xiaoba seemed to understand what the old man Maotian said and barked excitedly twice, "Woof woof!"
Seeing this scene, Luo Hao and Itagaki's faces became even uglier.
Luo Hao nervously grabbed Itagaki's sleeve and said in a trembling voice, "Senior Itagaki, I feel a chill on my back and my calves are starting to cramp.
I have a feeling that what Senior Yingcun said in the car about fighting a bear might be true!"
Although Itagaki was a little nervous, he was a senior after all, and he tried to remain calm.
He patted Luo Hao on the shoulder and consoled him: "What are you afraid of? If a bear really comes, it will be great. We can kill it and have bear meat hotpot to replenish our bodies tonight."
At this time, Yingcun was already standing at the front of the team, shouting, "The 10km mountain run has begun, you lazy bums hurry up and catch up!"
"Woof woof!" Xiao Ba seemed to be full of energy. He wagged his tail and led the way happily for everyone.
Aoki and Kimura looked reluctant and muttered, "I knew it was no good coming here. Running down this mountain road is so tiring!"
Seeing this, President Kamogawa kicked Aoki on the butt and urged him, "Why are you talking so much! Run!
Luo Hao and Itagaki, you two should hurry up and follow."
So, under the watchful eyes of old man Nekota and President Kamogawa, the group began this arduous mountain run.
The mountain road is rugged, with towering trees on both sides. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves onto the road, creating mottled light and shadows.
Although the environment was quiet, Luo Hao felt uneasy, fearing that he would really encounter a dangerous animal like a bear.
Not long after we ran out, the trees on both sides of the mountain road became increasingly dense and tall. The sunlight was blocked by the dense leaves, making the entire environment look gloomy and terrifying.
An indescribable feeling of oppression began to spread, making people feel fearful.
The leader, Yingcun, shouted loudly in front, "You guys must follow me closely. If you get lost and get eaten by a bear, I won't be able to save you!"
Then, he continued to give instructions, “Everyone, please be careful when running, go slower when going downhill to avoid hurting your knees;
When going uphill, you have to charge up with all your strength. Did you hear that?"
Everyone responded: "Yes..."
Because Luo Hao and Itagaki were afraid of the bear, they ran faster and quickly overtook the slow-moving Aoki and Kimura.
Next, after running for a while, they started to go downhill, and they had to run slowly to avoid getting injured from running too fast.
Aoki was so tired that his tongue stuck out, panting like a dog: "I'm so tired."
"Don't talk, just run seriously." Yingcun reminded sternly.
Just then, Luo Hao saw a sign on the side of the road that read: "There are bears nearby."
His heart tightened and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.
After running for a while, suddenly Aoki and Kimura ran as fast as crazy and instantly surpassed Luo Hao and Itagaki.
Luo Hao was a little confused by the two of them and asked loudly: "Senior Aoki, Senior Kimura, why are you two running so fast?"
At this time, Kimura turned around, his face was pale, his eyes were full of fear, and he shouted hurriedly: "Everyone run, there is a bear behind us!"
"What?!" Luo Hao turned around suddenly and saw a huge black bear slowly approaching them. Its fangs and claws were really chilling.
His face turned pale instantly and he was so scared that even his words trembled.
"A bear! Everyone run..." Luo Hao and Itagaki shouted in horror, and ran forward with Aoki and Kimura.
"Roar..." (bear roar)
The deafening roar echoed in the valley.
"Aoki, don't push me!"
"Takamura, didn't you say you could beat the black bear? Why are you running?"
"I don't want to die, I'm still a virgin!"
"Wang Wang!"
"You damn dog, why don't you fight the black bear!"
"Woooo..."
The five mountain runners from Kamogawa Boxing Gym and a dog were racing against time on the downhill road.
