Net King: Black Glory

Chapter 509 Disastrous Failure (Part [-])
  "What's wrong? What's wrong with Ryoma?"

"It was such a good opportunity to fight back just now, why did he stop?"

"Yes? Is Ryoma already tired?"

The three giants of Qingxue all expressed their own questions.

Their negative attitude made Tomoka Kosakata, an avid fan on the side, very dissatisfied, and they started to quarrel instantly.

At this time, Shinji Gan, who had been recording data on the sidelines, glanced at them and then said:

"Temporary paralysis is one of Fudomine Middle School's Ibu Shinji's special skills. By constantly hitting the opponent with topspin and backspin, the opponent's wrists and muscles can be fatigued from the constant twisting."

"When this fatigue reaches a critical point, it will instantly paralyze the opponent's swinging hand, which is what you just saw!"

After finishing speaking, Inui Shinji turned the notebook in his hand to another page and continued:

"Such a move is most useful when facing an opponent who can challenge him head-on. Even if his strength is slightly stronger than him, it can also be used as a counterattack."

"However, the previous Echizen could not really keep up with Ibu Fukaji, so many spin balls were scored directly.
  This is probably why the temporary paralysis has only taken effect now! "

"It seems that for Ibu Shinji, more data needs to be recorded..."

After Indigo Shinji explained, he no longer paid attention to these first-year students, but continued to calculate the data he collected.

And the explanation he just gave made several people look at each other in shock.

After a brief silence, Katsuro was the first to break the silence: "Horiio, according to Gan-senpai, doesn't it mean that the person opposite Fudomine is much more powerful than Ryoma?"

"How is this possible...and is temporary paralysis really something that tennis can do? Why is their tennis different from ours..."

"Ahhh!"

Horio Satoshi scratched his hair irritably: "No matter how they did it, but what the senior said means, there is no way Echizen can win!"

Watching Fudomine's Ibu Fukaji score another point, and after reaching their own match point, Horio and the others became more and more impatient.

Originally, they were very confident in the strength of Qingxue, but now they are a little shaken.

Even the cheers for Echizen Ryoma dropped.

The strength displayed by Ibu Fukaji was too terrifying. It seemed that at this moment, Echizen Ryoma had no other way out except to be captured.

"Echigan!"

"little guy!"

Seeing Echizen Ryoma who was in a panic on the court and seemed to have reached the critical point, several people from Seigaku also shouted to cheer him up.

In the seventh game, it was Echizen Ryoma's serve again.

Years of training and high-intensity competition with Echizen Nanjiro gave Echizen Ryoma a strong physique and endurance, and also gave him a high combat IQ.

But those were training sessions and informal games.

Over the years, in all official matches, Echizen Ryoma has never lost.

This also allowed him to develop strong self-confidence.

In the future, we can even say, ‘When it comes to tennis, he will not lose to anyone.’ Such arrogant words even Saeki Munuhiko would not dare to say.

However, all this should no longer happen now, and the feeling of failure really enveloped Echizen Ryoma.

Standing on the service line, Echizen's head was running wildly, constantly thinking about the hope of breaking the game.

boom!
  Throwing the ball and raising the racket, the tennis ball flew into Itake Fukaji's half again.

"Once the paralysis begins, it will never stop!"

boom!
  The afterimage of the racket passed behind the landing point of the tennis ball, and the mustard-yellow tennis ball disappeared in an instant.

When he appeared again, he saw a rising cloud of smoke rising from Echizen Ryoma's half, and the sound of a racket falling.

Then there was the sound of the tennis ball rubbing against the net.

"Fudomine Ibu Fukaji scored, the score is 15-0."

When Fukaji's return ball was hit by Echizen's racket, the temporary paralysis occurred again, and the tennis ball knocked his racket off.

After moving his wrist a little, Echizen picked up the racket and went to the left service area.

The paralysis of his left hand made him subconsciously use his right hand to serve. This momentary change of racket made him think of a solution instantly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

However, Shenji will not hold back, his left hand and right hand are nothing to him.

Seeing Echizen serve again, the strength of his right hand makes the tennis played much weaker than that of his left hand.

"too slow!"

With one glance, Ibu Fukas predicted where the tennis ball would land. He stepped forward and his figure flashed quickly.

In an instant, he appeared at the landing point of the tennis ball. With the inertia of running, his arms brought strong power, and then he pulled back the racket and swung it fiercely!
  The moment the tennis ball rebounded, Fukaji swung out powerful force with the help of his racket!

boom!
  The tennis ball turned into a stream of light and rolled away, aiming directly at Echizen Ryoma's sideline!

stomping on...

However, although Fukaji's counterattack was swift, Echizen Ryoma did not give up. Instead, he still stepped on one foot and chased the tennis ball that was about to fall to the sideline.

"Come on, little one."

"Hey! This kid's speed is not enough!"

"It's over. I can't catch up at this speed, and I'm still temporarily paralyzed..."

Outside the stadium, several people from Qingxue seemed to have predicted the outcome of this goal.

"Sure enough, it's really a little bit worse...but it's not impossible to solve."

Of course Echizen Ryoma was very aware of his own disadvantages, and there was only a flash of light in his eyes.

When moving, the racket in the right hand is directly switched to the left hand.

Two knives!
  This is a move that Echizen Ryoma secretly learned from Echizen Nanjiro. Although it is moving quickly, the rhythm of Echizen remains stable.

After changing hands, he pulled the racket hard against the tennis ball.

boom!
  The tennis ball drew an exaggerated parabola in mid-air and fell towards Fudomine's backcourt!

"Change hands..."

"I am ambidextrous and can actually break paralysis like the minister and Yukimura?"

After seeing Echizen Ryoma's retaliate, Fukaji's eyes froze.

Of course he knew what his temporarily paralyzed weakness was. After all, he had personally experienced the two ambidextrous people among the junior high school students.

Unexpectedly, the guy opposite him would actually decipher his tricks at this juncture.

However, he is now more than just temporarily paralyzed.

Thinking of this, Shinji's eyes shed a little bit of gray light, and the light attached to the racket, making the surface of the racket begin to glow.

……

"Fight, fight back!"

"Not paralyzed!"

"The temporary paralysis has been broken!"

"Well done! Echizen, that's it, let's get the score back in one go!"

Seeing that Echizen seemed to have taken the initiative again, the Horio trio and Tomoka immediately cheered loudly for Echizen Ryoma.

Tread…

Itake Fukaji's figure quickly chased towards the backcourt from the midfield.

While chasing the ball with his back, the gray fluorescence in Fukaji's eyes kept clinging to the racket.

After the tennis ball hit the ground, just when it was about to fall again, Fukasaki Itake exerted force on the soles of his feet, causing a violent friction sound between his sneakers and the court.

With this explosion, he finally caught up with the goal. He glanced at Echizen Ryoma on the opposite side, and Fukaji's right hand was empty.

A gray-white ball of light appeared in his palm.

At the same time, the racket attached to the mental power also directly pocketed the tennis ball.

Gray-white light enveloped the tennis ball.

nightmare!

Gemini!
  Bang ~ whoosh!
  The 'two' tennis balls flew over the net instantly, and then quickly rushed towards Echizen after landing.

Suddenly, Echizen, who was extremely focused, suddenly saw a terrifying figure appearing in front of him.

Tennis seems to have a shadow in it.

Before he had time to dodge, the shadow directly hit Echizen Ryoma. The throbbing in his heart caused by Ibu Fukaji's all-round crushing was connected with the deepest fear in his heart.

Like a fuse, the nightmare erupted instantly.

It made his whole body freeze.

Then two shadows knocked his racket off again, and the tennis ball flashed past Echizen Ryoma!

"Fudomine Ibu Fukaji scored, the score is 30:0."

The referee immediately blew his whistle and announced the score.

"what is this…"

Echizen Ryoma raised his head and stared at Ibu Shinji opposite him with a faint gaze.

Echizen Ryoma's character made him have very few things to fear, so this move did not interfere with him as much as Fukaji thought.

But the impact of this completely different tennis path is real.

Thinking that he had just used the two-sword style to break Ibu Fukaji's paralysis.

But in the blink of an eye, Ibu Fukaji came up with even more terrifying and difficult-to-resist tricks.

"Neon, it's really interesting!"

……

boom!
  pat~
  With the last ball knocking off Echizen Ryoma's racket again, the game also came to an end.

"Game, the No. 6 singles match between Seishun Academy and Fudomine Middle School is over. Fudomine Middle School Ibu Fukaji won, with a score of 1-[-]."

After the game, Echizen returned to the rest area in silence after shaking hands with Fukaji.

After taking the towel Momoro Takeshi handed him, he put it directly on his head.

He was silent the whole time.

This game was a complete defeat for Echizen Ryoma.

Any of his methods are useless when facing the other party.

Itake Fukaji was able to score frequently just by relying on basic tennis skills. When he tried to catch up with the opponent's rhythm.

The opponent only showed a slight display of his paralysis ability, but he was already exhausted.

Although the two-sword style was able to restrain this, after he really showed his strength at the last moment, Shenji's suppression of him almost left him without any power to fight back.

To think that he, the prince of tennis, maintained an unbeaten record in the main matches of America, but his first main-match singles match after returning to Neon was directly ended.

"Ibu Shinji...Fudomine..."
