I'm in NetKing, and I have a tennis mini-game

Chapter 157 Singles 2, Atobe vs Liu (1st update)

"Well!"

Sanada and Liu's expressions changed.

Especially the former, after feeling the extremely depressing aura from Akutsu, he actually felt a sense of danger in his heart.

"Akutsujin."

Sanada's heart sank slightly.

He didn't expect that the Ice Emperor would hide such a person. From this point of view, Liu's data was not collected properly.

"Akaya!!!"

the other side.

Marui and Jackal hurriedly ran to the court to check the condition of Kirihara who fell to the ground.

at this time.

Kirihara's skin color returned to normal, and the snow-white color of his hair also faded visibly.

"What a rout."

Yagyu sighed softly.

Niou stared at Akutsu with great interest, as if he wanted to see through this powerful person.

"Sanada!"

Jackal turned his head and said nervously: "Akaya has passed out. Do you want to call an ambulance?"

"Bring him here."

Sanada stood up expressionlessly, looked at the referee and said: "Referee, we forfeit this game."

"Okay, okay."

The referee nodded repeatedly.

He was relieved in his heart. He had never seen such a brutal style of play even though he had been a referee for more than ten years.

The last time he used a tennis style that specifically attacked other people's bodies was something he heard from his colleagues more than three years ago. It is said that that person is simply a madman who specializes in attacking others with tennis balls for fun.

did not expect.

He actually encountered it today.

"Cough cough."

Immediately, the referee coughed twice and said solemnly: "Due to Tatekai abstaining, this singles 3 match will be won by Hyotei's Aku Tsujin."

"Is that the only extent?"

Akutsu shook his head in disappointment.

After looking at Kirihara who was being carried away, he put away his racket, the strong gray-white aura on his body disappeared, turned around and left the court.

"Is Akutsu already so strong?"

Mountain blows.

Muromachi, who was wearing sunglasses, opened his mouth subconsciously.

Not only him, but Nan, Dongfang and others also felt regretful in their hearts. If I had known that Akutsu was so talented, I should have communicated with him properly from the beginning.

With Akutsu's presence, Yamabuki's situation will undoubtedly be much better this year.

Unfortunately.

There is no regret in the world about selling medicine, and they can only watch helplessly as such a powerful player is used by the Ice Emperor.

"One win and two losses."

Off the field.

When Akutsu turned to leave, Inoue, who was photographed with a stern look in his eyes and a defiant attitude, sighed and said: "The next singles 2 will be the key to the game."

The formation of both sides and the strength and weakness of the players.

Regardless of whether it is Tatekai Dai or Hyokui, as long as there is a slight mistake, there will be another ending.

"Singles 2 should be fine, right?"

Zhi blinked and said in surprise: "The Ice Emperor must have arranged for Ishikawa. With his strength, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with Rise Kai's Liu, right?"

"If it's Ishikawa, there's really no problem."

Inoue nodded and his eyes fell on the smiling young man facing Hyokui.

indeed.

During the break at the end of Doubles 1 just now, the other party went out for a while. Normally, it should be to warm up for singles 2.

"In this case, the key to the outcome of the game will become the confrontation between the aces of both sides!"

Against the general.

King versus king.

Atobe and Sanada are undoubtedly the core players of the two teams currently. The two had crossed paths during the previous youth trials.

But then.

Inoue had never heard of the two of them having ever played against each other in official competitions.

If it is really a duel between these two people in the end, it will probably become the most exciting duel in the history of the Kanto Tournament!

"Liu, Senior Liu"

Standing on one side of the sea.

Kirihara, who was unconscious, gradually regained consciousness after being fed water by the jackal. He looked at Liu who picked up the racket and was about to play, and said with shame: "I'm sorry everyone, I lost."

The tragic defeat at the hands of Akutsu was not unacceptable to Kirihara. After all, the strength gap between the two sides is too big. In the eyes of the other party, his demonization is probably just a child's trick.

but.

This is the main game after all.

He represents the king who establishes the sea.

There should be no stain on a king. Kirihara believed that if his condition at this time were not so bad, he would definitely be punished by Sanada's iron fist!

"it does not matter."

On the edge of the court, Liu shook his head and said: "Recognize your own problems, and then work hard to change the status quo."

Yanagi has always been very tolerant towards Kirihara.

Moreover, even though Sankirihara lost the singles match, Akutsu's strength exceeded his original estimation. However, the overall direction of the game is still within Liu's plan.

even.

Even in this game, he was prepared to lose.

Because he has carefully studied Ishikawa, this person's strength has definitely surpassed the national level in the general sense.

If we really want to find a player among junior high school students who can compete with him, I'm afraid it would be Yukimura who has not yet fallen ill and been hospitalized. Apart from that, even Sanada is a little reluctant.

Just like playing chess against pieces.

In the last two games, Liu counted himself as a sacrificial character. The reason is that Li Hai can achieve the final victory.

of course.

According to his plan, placing Sanada in singles 3 is the safest tactic.

only.

For the king, Li Haida, this option does not exist.

The king should sit on the throne, and the ace player cannot leave his position.

otherwise.

How can one be called a king?

Although Yukimura is not here, Sanada and Yanagi still want to prove to the teams in Kanto and even the country that Tachikai's lineup at this time still has no dead ends!

tread!

After thinking about it, Liu stepped out.

"Now, the singles 2 match is about to begin."

"Renji Yanagi from Rikkai University Affiliated High School to Keigo Atobe of Hyotei Academy."

"Players on both sides please be prepared."

Swish!

The words fell.

Liu's movements couldn't help but freeze.

He raised his head, his lightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and he looked in the direction of the Ice Emperor in surprise.

However, Atobe, a minister, actually walked into the court holding a racket after handing his coat to Kachichi.

"This"

Representatives of other teams seemed to be confused by the news, and they all showed expressions of astonishment.

There is only the Ice Emperor's support group.

After seeing Atobe play, he immediately shouted slogans excitedly:

"The winner is Hyokui, and the winner is Atobe!"

"The winner is Hyokui, and the winner is Atobe!"

"The winner is Hyokui, and the winner is Atobe!"

Hundreds of people shouted in unison.

The sound was like a wave, sounding one after another.

In an instant.

The entire stadium seemed to have instantly transformed into the Ice Emperor's home court.

Snapped!

Immediately.

As he walked into the court, Atobe raised his left hand, touched it lightly with two fingers, and made a clear snap of his fingers.

Suddenly.

All Hyokui's team members stopped in unison, as if they had received an order. The entire stadium was so quiet that there was no unnecessary sound.

"Ah."

At this time, Atobe said with a smile: "The winner will be me!"

"Ooooooooo!!!"

On and off the court.

He was instantly drowned out by the cheers of the Hyokui team members.

"Is this Atobe's aura?"

Sensing a completely different atmosphere from before, Li Hai, Marui and Jackal looked at each other and saw each other's shock.

They had a vague feeling that this game might exceed their original estimates.

"willow."

In front of the net.

After shaking hands with his opponent, Atobe said with a smile: "I think you didn't expect this result, right?"

"Indeed." Liu did not deny it.

In fact, from the beginning of Doubles 2, he felt that the direction of the situation was deviating from his expectation.

"I'm surprised."

Liu asked curiously: "How did your deputy minister convince you to give up that position?"

In his impression, Atobe had a very arrogant character, and could even be said to be self-centered. Because of this, there had been no deputy minister in the Ice Emperor for the past two years.

For such a person, it is absolutely impossible to give up the singles 1 position that represents his identity.

Very simple.

The throne belongs to the king, and the only one in the entire Hyokui who is qualified to appear in that position is Atobe.

"On the court, there is no third outcome except winning and losing."

In response to Yanagi's test, Atobe just replied calmly: "As Hyotei's minister, I can even play doubles for the team's victory!"

"Forehead."

Liu's face changed slightly.

He couldn't help but look deeply at the young man in front of him. Is the other party still the Atobe Keigo he knew?

now.

Liu suddenly realized that he was terribly wrong.

The Atobe in front of him still had the strength of the Hyotei Minister. But there is no longer any arrogance and dominance. Instead, there was a sense of freedom and ease, as if the shackles had been put down.

"Such Atobe is really rare."

Off the field.

Qingxue's Fuji sighed: "It's hard to imagine that he would say such a thing."

"Yes."

Qianye nodded and said: "The Ice Emperor, who is the only one I own, actually appears in the singles 2 position. And the identity of the person who asked him to give up the throne is about to be revealed."

Swish!

Finished.

Seigaku's team members all looked at the black-haired boy behind Sakaki Taro who was standing in front of the other Hyotei team members.

Ishikawa Shin.

Hyokui's deputy minister.

A being who can almost be described as a junior high school tennis legend.

"A seemingly insignificant adjustment can completely affect the outcome of the game."

Speaking of this, Qian said with emotion: "The turning point for the great showdown between the Ice Emperor and Li Hai has appeared."

Regarding Liu, Qian knew that he was powerful.

only.

Compared to Atobe, who has the status of Hyōtei's minister, Yanagi is completely unattractive.

of course.

Other teams, or Li Hai University's own players, are still full of confidence in Liu.

"The winner is Hyotei, the winner is Atobe"

"Always victorious, build the sea."

The support groups from both sides cheered at the top of their lungs.

After a while.

The two of them each retreated to the bottom line.

After confirming the status of both sides, the referee nodded and said: "The game has begun, and the outcome will be determined by one set. Tatehai Oyanagi serves, and the game ends!"

"call."

Bottom line.

Liu, who was holding a tennis ball in his hand, took a deep breath.

As a data flow tennis player, he needs to adjust his emotions at all times to ensure that he is in a calm state.

"First, data."

Locking his eyes on Atobe, Liu thought to himself: "Since his personality has changed, his tennis style should be similar. Therefore, we must collect information again."

Bang!

Think of this.

Ryu knocked the tennis ball out.

Whoosh!

The high-speed flying tennis ball suddenly accelerated its fall after approaching the ground.

"Change ball?"

Atobe raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, did Kirihara learn tennis from you?"

Bang!

The racket is lifted slightly.

The tennis ball that bounced off the ground was hit by him.

"what?"

Seeing this, Kirihara, who looked in the direction of Tachikai and recovered, said in disbelief: "Senior Liu's variable-speed serve was broken so easily?"

"That's not surprising."

Marui, who was chewing bubble gum, shook his head seriously and said, "Because he is Hyotei's minister, Atobe Keigo!"

"Forehead."

Kirihara was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the serious expressions of the other Rikkai members around him, he finally realized the weight represented by the names Atobe and Tezuka!

Tap! !

at the same time.

Liu caught up with Tennis and quickly observed his opponent's status.

As a data master, excellent insight is one of the necessary abilities. After seeing Atobe's position clearly, he pushed the racket lightly and hit the tennis ball at an angle.

Bang!

The tennis ball flew out of the air at a small angle and landed near the service line.

"hiss!"

Immediately.

There was a gasp outside the stadium.

Different from the previous games, what Liu showed was the absolute control of tennis by top players. It looks like an understatement, but when it is released, it is like a sharp knife, stabbing the opponent's weak point.

Tap! !

pity.

His opponent is Atobe.

The latter's foot strength is amazing, and his insight is even more terrifying.

Liu's little scheme is completely powerless against Jibu. In the blink of an eye, he had caught up with the tennis ball and whipped it over with his backhand.

"good."

Seeing this, Liu nodded secretly: "His speed, technique, and reaction are all based on top players. In this case, let's try this trick."

Whoa!

Immediately.

Liu turned the racket.

After attaching the tennis ball to the racket surface, use your wrist to hit it quickly.

Whoosh!

Accompanied by a fierce wind, the tennis ball flew out quickly as if it was cutting through the air.

"High-speed slice!"

Some people's expressions changed, as if they didn't expect Liu to take action so quickly.

"Deeper temptation?"

Qian saw Liu's thoughts and realized that the opponent was collecting Atobe's data feedback through various shots.

of course.

This chip shot is definitely considered exquisite.

If Atobe doesn't want to expose his strength, Yanagi can also score, which is not a loss at all.

"Ok?"

The next moment.

When he saw a figure suddenly appearing in front of the tennis ball, Qian's expression changed.

"When?"

Liu was also surprised.

He didn't even notice when Atobe moved to this position.

Bang!

And the opponent's shooting speed was also astonishingly fast. The high-speed chip was actually intercepted by him and he counterattacked.

There was a snap.

Before Liu could react, the tennis ball hit the lower half of his racquet grip.

The strong vibration made him instinctively let go and the racket fell to the ground.

Swish!

And this time.

On the opposite side, Atobe jumped up with a smile on his face, raised his racket and slammed it: "Immerse yourself in my beautiful skills!"

Bang!

There was a loud bang.

The tennis ball fell next to Liu, and then ejected into a beam of yellow light.

"What, what is this?!"

Kirihara said tremblingly.

“A Rondo Towards Disillusionment.”

Marui explained: "It's Atobe's unique trick. Unexpectedly, he took it seriously as soon as he came up."

"Atobe."

on the field.

Liu, who was covering his right hand, opened his eyes and looked at his opponent.

Others may not be able to understand why Atobe used a unique trick right at the beginning of the game. But Liu, as his opponent, clearly captured the opponent's intentions.

Looking at the smiling Atobe, Liu seemed to hear the other party's voice: "Don't you want to collect data? Then I will satisfy you!"

This king of ice kings.

At this moment, he showed absolute confidence in his own strength without reservation!
