Kapitel 21: Chapter 21: Let's Go Swimming
"I really don't need to explain the rules, but I will just in case. There are 20 balls for each participating teams at the bottom of the pool. The goal is to put as many of those balls into the basket! All balls that stay in the basket will be counted as your team's points! Now then, everyone, let the game begin!"
"Well, you heard the announcer. How are we going to play this?" Nabeshima asked as she swam over towards Zenkichi and Shiranui in the pool. Her hands on her hips as she said. "You, me and Kurokami are obviously going to participate but what's the best strat for us to win this?"
"Oi. What do you mean "obviously"?!" Shiranui said with a loud voice, a bright smile on her face. She was just leisurely enjoying her swim by using the floater but she wasn't going to take an insult like that lying down!
"What do you think? Brat." Nabeshima replied in kind.
The two began glaring at each other, and Zenkichi could imagine them shooting lightning bolts from their eyes at the other.
He shook his head and looked at Nabeshima. "Uh, Nabeshima-senpai. Who says we're doing this game together?"
"Eh? Are you saying that we're skipping this event?" She turned towards him with wide eyes. "Don't tell me, did Medaka tell you that the last game or something would be giving out a lot of points that surpasses all the points we earn by the other games?!"
"No. That's not what I mean. And she wouldn't abuse her authority to help her club members, unlike a certain someone." Zenkichi answered with a blank expression and Nabeshima pouted.
He sighed and said. "What I mean is that we're not going to participate in this first event, except for Medaka."
"Huh? Why? I get that she's strong and all but still, she's still one person." Nabeshima was surprised and asked. Shiranui's eyes flickered up for a moment and smiled knowingly.
Zenkichi smirked and raised his right finger up. "Ah, Nabeshima-senpai. How naive. Trust me, if this was any other game I would've had us all go out. But for this first game, all we're gonna need is only one player."
"And win this in one go." Medaka added as she appeared by their side, wearing a completely different swimsuit. She turned to smile at Zenkichi. "So you also figured out the best plan to win the first game. As expected!"
Zenkichi chuckled, scratching the back of his head and said. "Haha. Well, it wasn't that hard to figure it out when you think about it."
It really wasn't when you calculated the most likely outcome when figuring out all the variables. Zenkichi figured it out when he took a look at what the balls used in the game was, the depth of the pool where the balls were submerged in, how heavy it'll become when it's brought up to the surface, and simulated numerous outcomes of how to beat the game with the quickest and easiest way.
Medaka, Shiranui and Nabeshima all left the pool. The former two looked completely calm while their last member was pouting indignantly as she was still not informed of what the plan was.
"Ah! Unfair! You two are just first years, how could you be so cold to your senior." She loudly whined as she climbed out of the pool.
A lot of people from other clubs looked at them in confusion and suspicion at what they were doing. Especially since all three of those girls are infamous, their eyes especially went to Nabeshima specifically. The Queen of Foul was truly well-known to all students.
"What? What are you all looking at?!" Nabeshima shouted back at them, making sure they knew that she wasn't up to anything suspicious...yet.
"What are they doing?" A purple haired girl with a risque swimsuit muttered with narrowed eyes before shrugging her shoulders. She was as curious as the others since they're very well known, especially Nabeshima Nekomi.
It was a shame that wearing swimsuits was required and she would've loved it more to swim in the pool with her bare body, to fully enjoy the water and the game. This was a good place to draw another self portrait of herself.
At the sideline of the pool. Nabeshima came up in between Medaka and Shiranui, all three of them watching their captain in the water. "Can you two already tell me what Hitoyoshi's plan is to win this?"
Shiranui, smiling, lightly splashed the waters with her feet and said. "You'll see."
"Is the plan that complex or something?"
Medaka smiled, shaking her head, "Instead of a plan, it's more of a technique than anything."
"Is everyone in position? On your marks!" The announcer loudly said, interrupting everyone's thoughts. "Go!!"
The sound of splashing water filled the air as all the other teams rushed to the bottom of the pool to collect their balls. Meanwhile, Medaka calmly remained at the edge of the pool, her eyes locked sharply at her childhood friend before glancing at a certain team that had dived in.
'Those three...' She narrowed her eyes.
Zenkichi watched as the other teams desperately tried to collect the balls, some struggling due to the depth of the pool. He knew that they were wasting their energy and time.
'Well then, how about I dive in now.' Zenkichi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and dived down towards the balls in the pool floor.
'Its pretty deep.' He frowned. It was a bit hard, considering the floaters around his biceps was making it difficult to dive faster into the bottom. It's a known fact that people are heavier than water but they still float in it; it's because there's air in their lungs. Moreover, Zenkichi's muscular physique was making it harder as well. He just wasn't built to swim as fast as an average swimmer.
That is, if he didn't have a swimming skill.
'I can make it. I've stored enough air in my lungs to stay in the bottom of the pool for at least 10 minutes, I only need a minute.' He soon reached the bottom of the floor. As he grabbed a ball from the pool floor, he noticed three people that were grabbing several balls at a time and were already turning to swim back up.
'I noticed these guys before. They breathed in a lot of air earlier and had expelled them when they dived in, making their air bladder empty. Compulsed expiry diving is the technique they're using if what my swimming skill is instinctively telling me.'
'They must be the swimming club, there's no other club in this school who's confident and reckless enough to do that.' He shook his head at their suicidal action and started collecting the balls.
'None of my business. If no one's drowning, I won't bother you. Hmm. Now that I have time for myself to think, I wonder how those girls with huge tits swim down?' Within 30 seconds he finally collected the necessary 20 balls in his arms, turning his head up, his feet left the pool floor and started swimming up.
While the rest struggled to get the balls from the pool floor and into the basket, the crew of Zenkichi watched through the clear waters of the swimming as he took deep breath and dived down into the pool, confident and poised. And in a matter of seconds, he had grabbed all 20 balls and was off swimming back up to the surface of the pool.
Resurfacing, Zenkichi quickly squished all 20 balls into one big ball and shoot it towards the basket.
'Too easy.' Zenkichi proudly grinned, as the scoreboard showed that their MMA club, a temporary name put in because Medaka didn't want anyone to think of unfair treatment because she was part of their club, had immediately switched to 20 from 0.
Medaka, Shiranui and Nabeshima cheered while the crowd watched with disbelief as Zenkichi scored all 20 balls effortlessly, and the announcer declared their team had scored 20 points.
'So I was right.' Letting out a breath, Zenkichi looked up at the scoreboard to see that the first one to get 20 points was the swimming club team.
The only reason why they weren't getting much attention was because they had been low key in getting the first win.
'Well, this event isn't going to be boring after all.' Zenkichi smirked as he slowly went to the edge of the pool to climb out. His ear twitched as he heard the scolding voice of Medaka.
He looked towards where she, Shiranui, and Nabeshima were and saw four people, three of which are completely wet and exhausted while the last one helped them by giving them some drinks. They were two males and two females, balancing their gender team ratio.
The guys looked older than the girls and were well trained with their toned swimmer physique but they weren't that special in Zenkichi's eyes. Even one of their hot female teammates, with a hot and toned body befitting a swimmer and with the skintight swimsuit showing off her curves and large chest.
But the last female member of their team is what got his attention the most. It was someone he'd seen before but hadn't taken a closer look. Now however?
'Wait a minute. That voice, that hair, that childlike face, and especially that huge rack! Can that be–?!'
Zenkichi's eye twitched as he stood still. This changes things.
He was an idiot for not recognizing one of the most beloved waifu in his past life. He didn't have to eavesdrop to know who she was.
Uzaki Hana, the main female lead in: "Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!"
