Chapter 12: Atobe Keigo's Special Technique

After saying that, Atobe Keigo tossed the tennis ball into the air.

Immediately after, he bent his waist sharply backward.

Right after that, his eyes locked dead onto the falling tennis ball.

The color of his pupils began to shift continuously.

The instant the tennis ball fell, Atobe Keigo seized the moment and swung his racket directly.

Bang!

The tennis ball flew swiftly toward Kamishiro Aki's service box.

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki rushed to the service box ahead of time.

The moment he locked down the ball's approximate landing spot, he began to look forward to this serve.

If he wasn't mistaken, this ball was most likely the Tang Huaise Serve.

At this moment, the tennis ball landed!

"Thud!"

The tennis ball slammed hard onto the ground.

Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki hurriedly lowered his racket.

At the same time, the tennis ball only bounced up the distance of one tennis-ball's length.

And spun away at low altitude toward the back.

Kamishiro Aki was somewhat startled.

He failed to return this ball — worthy of Atobe Keigo indeed.

Meanwhile, Atobe Keigo said with a smile to Kamishiro Aki.

"There's no way you can return this ball."

"This ball is the serve technique I use against Tezuka Kunimitsu."

"It's called the Tang Huaise Serve!"

It really was the Tang Huaise Serve!

Although Kamishiro Aki had anticipated it, he still found it stunning!

This was different from watching the anime.

This was seeing it with his own eyes — and moreover, a technique he could actually face in a match!

At the same time, the crowd outside the court also let out cries of surprise!

Because they had never seen this kind of serve either.

Even Oshitari Yuushi had never seen it.

He pushed his glasses up, looked at Atobe Keigo, and muttered softly.

"Atobe, looks like you've improved a lot again."

"The Tang Huaise Serve, huh…"

Oshitari Yuushi began to fall into deep thought.

If he himself had to return this ball, how likely was it that he could?

But no matter how he analyzed it, that possibility was zero!

After reaching his conclusion, Oshitari Yuushi sighed.

"Atobe, you really are a terrifying opponent."

Just then, Akutagawa Jiro started shouting again.

"As expected of Atobe — he even knows a serve like this!"

"Amazing! Atobe really is on another level."

"I wonder if that guy called Kamishiro Aki has any way to deal with it?"

His question made Oshitari Yuushi also a little curious.

Moreover, this game was still Atobe Keigo's service game.

Therefore, the likelihood that Atobe Keigo's next serve would be the Tang Huaise Serve was very high.

No — not just very high!

It was certain.

Since he'd already brought it out, he wouldn't gain real combat experience without using it several more times.

Kamishiro Aki thought the same, so he had already entered a ready state.

Although he didn't have much confidence in returning the Tang Huaise Serve,

he still wanted to try whether he could return it.

At this moment, Atobe Keigo began to serve!

He was seen tossing the tennis ball into the air.

Without a jump, his exceptionally good waist also bent sharply downward.

No doubt about it!

It was the starting stance of the Tang Huaise Serve.

The instant the tennis ball fell, Atobe Keigo swung his racket violently.

"Thud!"

The moment the racket struck the tennis ball, it produced a loud sound.

The tennis ball crossed the net in an instant.

Kamishiro Aki hurriedly rushed to the service box to wait for the return!

He had already lowered his racket in advance.

The purpose was to receive Tezuka Kunimitsu's Tang Huaise serve.

And at the very instant the tennis ball was about to hit the ground.
