Chapter 135
0135 Three years of waiting! Sanada vs. Tezuka! Breaking two moves in a row!
The cheers from the audience did not affect the atmosphere in the players’ seats of both teams.
Two consecutive doubles matches were lost.
Yanagi Renji and Inui Sadaharu did not even need to calculate.
This Kanto Tournament final……Rikkai University has already lost!!
The remaining three singles matches.
Sanada Genichirō, Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Rubis!
The tactical arrangement of Yanagi Renji and Inui Sadaharu was originally to hope to win at least one of the two doubles matches!
If all goes well, both doubles matches can be won!
Singles No. 3 Sanada Genichirō defeated Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Then!
The subsequent singles No. 2 and No. 1 will not need to compete, and Rikkai University will beat Fudomine 3-0!
At worst, even if they win one doubles match.
Rikkai University still has a theoretical possibility of defeating Fudomine!
But now…
On their side, there was only one national-level player, Genichirō Sanada.
On the other hand, Fudomine had Kitakyo, Kunimitsu Tezuka, Jin Akutsu, and Kintaro Toyama!
Four in total!!
The Kanto Championship medal was almost waving goodbye to the Rikkai public.
“Sanada……Next game! Just do your best! Tezuka Kunimitsu is definitely stronger than Tachibana Yoshihei! Don’t be careless!”Ryanagiri Renji didn’t have a good grasp of Tezuka Kunimitsu’s data, so at this moment, he could do nothing but mentally support Sanada Genichirō. After hearing this, Kirihara Akaya and others also stood up to cheer for Sanada Genichirō.
Although the opponent lost to Atobe Keigo yesterday, they still believed in Sanada Genichirō’s strength.
Moreover!
They also knew how long Sanada Genichirō had been preparing for the match with Tezuka Kunimitsu!!
“I……Will not lose!”
“Furthermore, I will force out Tezuka’s full strength!”
“Lianji! I’ll leave the data to you!”
“This is also related to the national conference. Can we get back everything we encountered today!”
Yanagi Renji took a deep breath and looked at Inui Sadaharu who had already taken out his notebook.
The two said in unison:”Leave it to us!”
On the other side.
In the Fudomine player’s bench.
Although Tachibana Yoshihei won the game, he is now standing by the player’s bench under the teasing gaze of Akutsu Jin and others.
Kitakami let him play one against two, but it doesn’t mean that the other party is right to do so.
That is to say, against Yanagi Renji and Kirihara Akaya.
If in the future on the U-17 World Cup court, the game is affected by one’s own emotions.
For a team, this is undoubtedly a great opportunity for the opponent to win the game!
Even if it was Tachibana An, 617 didn’t dare to speak up for his brother at this time.
He just sat aside quietly and honestly, and from time to time he cast a look to Tachibana Yoshihei that said”Brother, you are on your own.”
Tezuka Kunimitsu has already taken out his racket and is ready to play in the game.
Kitakami and John didn’t have the idea of telling each other anything before the game.
Because this game Tezuka Kunimitsu has no chance of losing.
The only difference is……How does the other party want to win!
“Everyone is silent! The third singles match for number three is about to begin!”
“This match is for Fudomine Junior High School!”
“Genichirō Sanada from Rikkai University Junior High School versus Kunimitsu Tezuka from Fudomine Junior High School!”
“”Players from both teams enter the field!!”
When the referee announced the lineups for singles match number 3, everyone in the field heard the name of Sanada Genichirō first, and basically reacted.
Here it comes!!
The match at the Kanto tournament draw ceremony!!
The emperor of Rikkai University versus the former pillar of Seigaku!!
“Deputy Minister! Come on!”
“Deputy Minister!! Deputy Minister!!”
“Rikkai University!! Rikkai University!!”
“Tezuka Kunimitsu is definitely not your opponent! You must win!!”
The students of Rikkai University had been cheering for the people of Rikkai University for a long time, and finally took a break.
In this situation, they once again shouted for Sanada Genichirō!!
If the”military advisor” of Rikkai University was defeated and the”son of God” was missing!
The only person who can save Rikkai University from its decline……
Only one!!
It was at this moment that Genichirō Sanada walked into the competition court from the Rikkai University player’s booth, holding a racket and wearing a familiar baseball cap.
Even though Genichirō Sanada lost to Keigo Atobe yesterday, the students of Rikkai University still have full confidence in him.
In the Yamabuki team,
Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichirō Oishi were obviously very excited.
“Tezuka is on the field!! Oishi!! Do you think Tezuka can beat Genichirō Sanada?”
“I do not know……However, Tezuka’s arm should be fully healed now! He also showed great strength at the Metropolitan Games! His chances of winning may not be less than Sanada Genichirō!”
As former teammates of Seigaku, the two naturally stood on the side supporting Tezuka Kunimitsu.
Sengoku Kiyomi also showed a curious look on the side, leaning forward to look at Sanada Genichirō and Tezuka Kunimitsu walking onto the court.
“Mr. Ban! Who do you think will win? I think the same as Oishi and the others! We also think Tezuka Kunimitsu will win!”
Banda Kan’ya smiled and said,”We’ll know when the game starts! You missed the match between Sanada Genichirō and Atobe Keigo, you must watch this match carefully!”
All the Yamabuki people nodded in unison, showing their serious expressions.
In the Hyotei team,
Sakaki Taro and others had serious expressions. The same was true for Atobe Keigo
Even though he defeated Sanada Yiro yesterday, he also knew that the gap between himself and Sanada Yiro was just a little bit. In addition, he did not have time to find a response from a game. If he met in a game. Guoguang also wants to challenge and defeat! The other party has no chance to show all the strengths. Zhisha
“Click, click, click——”
Shiba Saori kept pressing the shutter button of her camera while looking at the game field.
“Ahhhh!! Senior Inoue!! This match can definitely be the cover title of our next magazine, right?!”
“Regularization! Regularization! Bonus! Bonus!”
Inoue Mamoru listened to what Shiba Saori was muttering. If it were any other time, he would have stopped her.
But now he was also in a nervous and excited mood.
You know!
When the name Kitakyo had not yet appeared in the Japanese junior high school tennis world, leaving aside Yukimura Seiichi, the”son of God” who had never lost,
Genichirō Sanada and Kunimitsu Tezuka almost represented the strength of the first echelon of this generation of junior high school students.
In his heart, the upcoming game will definitely be more meaningful than Genichirō Sanada vs. Keigo Atobe!!
With everyone’s expectations,
Kunimitsu Tezuka and Genichirō Sanada stood at both ends of the net.
“Tezuka, I have been waiting for this day for a long time!” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
“Fortunately you joined Fudo Peak, otherwise……I’m afraid I really have to find you in private to complete a match with you!”
Sanada Genichirō said in a deep voice. Tezuka
Kunimitsu remained expressionless and responded calmly:”Everything is the best arrangement! This match has taken you three years to prepare, so I hope you won’t let me down!”
“Sanada, show your tennis with all your strength![]
Genichirō Sanada narrowed his eyes slightly and grasped the other’s hand.
When the two shook hands, they felt the grip from the other’s palm, and the game between them had already begun invisibly.
“Game start!”
“Rikkai University is serving first!”
The referee announced loudly while sitting on the referee chair.
Genichirō Sanada was already holding a tennis ball, staring coldly at Kunimitsu Tezuka who was posing to receive the ball.
“Swish——”
“Bang——”
Facing Tezuka Kunimitsu, he could not have any contempt.
He raised his hand and hit the ball as fast as the wind.
The exaggerated swing speed and the speed of the ball under the swing challenged the visual limit of ordinary players.
If the upgraded heavy artillery serve of Hyotei student Hou Chotaro was already difficult for players with poor visual ability to return, then his speed was even better. But what surprised many people in the audience was……
Without any pause, Tezuka Kunimitsu took a half step forward and raised his hand to swing the racket!
The moment his body moved, it was almost synchronized with the sound of Sanada Genichirō’s serve.
“Bang——”
The tennis ball was caught steadily by Tezuka Kunimitsu, who hit it back with a beautiful topspin.
Sanada Genichirō frowned.
Although he knew that his move was as fast as the wind and would definitely not be able to stump Tezuka Kunimitsu, he did not expect that the first ball would be caught so easily.
He even felt……
Did I reveal too much about my personal strength in the match with Atobe Keigo yesterday?
As a result, my Speed of the Wind has been studied by Tezuka Kunimitsu.
But thinking about this now obviously won’t help me in the match.
“Ta-ta-ta——”
Move quickly and hold the racket to the net!
“Xu Rulin——”
Although Genichirō Sanada didn’t know whether Tezuka Kunimitsu’s topspin return had any potential tactical application, he would never allow Tezuka Kunimitsu any room to play with his spinning skills!
“Bang——”
The backhand cut off most of the rotation of the ball.
Tezuka Kunimitsu also came to the midfield from the backcourt to receive the ball.
“Sanada……You’re too far forward!”
“What?!”
“Bang!”
Under the surprised gaze of Sanada Genichirō, Tezuka Kunimitsu hit a high lob with his forehand.
Although it was a high lob, the speed of the ball was not slow.
Especially the falling speed, because of the strong downward spin of the ball, it was much faster than the high lob that was usually used to clear the ball or adjust the footwork.
“Bang!”
Sanada Genichirō turned around and chased the ball as soon as he realized what was happening.
However, the ball bounced out of the court two steps away from him.
“Fudomine Tezuka Kunimitsu scores! The score is 0-15!”
The confrontation at the beginning of the game made many people look at Sanada Genichirō and Tezuka Kunimitsu meaningfully.
Obviously, this game was Sanada Genichirō’s serving game.
He took the initiative with the first move, but from the moment Tezuka Kunimitsu received the ball, he was led by the nose.
Even if this ball alone cannot prove that Tezuka Kunimitsu is stronger than Sanada Genichirō.
However, it can show that Sanada Genichirō’s speed like the wind and slowness like the forest cannot threaten Tezuka Kunimitsu by half.
“Genichirō Sanada actually lost the first point! He was fooled by Tezuka Kunimitsu’s front and back field maneuvers!”
“Frontcourt transfer?! That’s easy for you to say! If it’s your turn, can you do it?!”
“Exactly! Even if Genichirō Sanada’s serve was slowed down by half, you might not be able to catch it!”
“Anyway, I think Genichirō Sanada was a bit weaker than Kunimitsu Tezuka in terms of momentum in this ball! He lost points right after taking the serve! I have never seen such a thing before!”
“That’s right! I watched his match with Atobe Keigo yesterday! Atobe Keigo didn’t fight back as decisively as Tezuka Kunimitsu! It took him a while to get used to it!”
“……”
Except for Rikkai University, all other students in the audience were disappointed with the loss of points by Sanada Genichirō in the first ball.
At this time, Atobe Keigo stared at Tezuka Kunimitsu who was about to catch the ball again.
“Tezuka……His insight has reached this level!”
“The speed of the ball is at least close to 200KM/H. Has he received any special visual training?”
His whisper made Fuji Shusuke beside him shake his head and said:”Atobe-san……I think you must have overlooked someone!”
“That person’s serve is even more exaggerated than the speed of the wind…….”
“In front of him! His swift swing and ball speed are no match for him…….”
When Keigo Atobe heard this, he immediately knew who Fuji Shusuke was talking about.
“I almost forgot about this guy Beijiang…….”
“You are right! If Tezuka usually comes into contact with Kitakyo’s serve, then being able to catch his fast serve is really nothing!”
But the two did not know.
They only guessed half right.
Kitakyo did contribute, but in daily training, most of Tezuka Kunimitsu and others train by themselves. They only have training matches with Kitakyo occasionally.
This is mainly because in the process of practicing multiple balls in a row, every time you want to break through the number of balls, you need to fully master the number of previous hits!
For example.
If the speed of the tennis ball is 170KM/H when completing three balls in a row, then in the process of breaking through to four balls in a row, you need to increase the speed of the ball adapted to the three-ball continuous hit.
Thereby leaving more reaction time to face the extra ball.
Tezuka Kunimitsu, Akutsu Jin and others are now players who can complete five balls in a row at a speed of 190KM/H. A ball as fast as the wind at a speed of 200KM/H……
What’s the point?!
Inside the Rikkai University players’ booth.
Inui Sadaharu frowned and said in a deep voice:”Not good! Although it’s only the first ball, the two shots in [Wind, Forest, Fire and Mountain] have no effect!”
Kirihara Akari also jumped up and said:”That’s not right! Senior Inui! Didn’t the head coach’s Qi Xu Rulin dissipate the topspin shot hit by Tezuka Kunimitsu?”
“It’s just that he suddenly hit a high lob, which caught the deputy minister off guard!”
Yanagi Renji sighed:”Is it really resolved? Although I can’t believe it, Tezuka Kunimitsu’s topspin ball did not completely disappear in the slow motion of Sanada!”
“He caught the ball and hit a high lob, using the residual rotation to speed up the explosion of the downward spin of the ball!”
“Otherwise, Sanada would not have been two steps away from the goal!”
“Moreover, when he received the fast ball from Sanada, he should have already planned how to score this ball!”
“Tezuka Kunimitsu……He is truly a master of spin!”
“As an opponent, he is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying existence!”
His words echoed in the Rikkai University players’ seats.
Kirihara Akaya and others couldn’t help but show worry on their faces.
Just a one-ball confrontation put Sanada Genichirō in a passive position.
Is this the opponent that the other side has been waiting for three years to defeat?
If it were a few days ago.
They would find it hard to imagine that besides their own minister Yukimura Seiichi, there is someone who can threaten the other side!!.
