He looked at Yushi Oshitari and said.

"The probability of this ball scoring is one hundred percent!"

Seeing this, Yushi Oshitari retorted directly.

"Indeed, that is the probability of us scoring!"

Renji Yanagi squinted his eyes and whispered to Akaya Kirihara.

"Alright, Akaya, I'll leave the rest to you."

"Help me hold on for three games. Just three games, and I will be able to successfully collect the data on Yushi Oshitari and Jiro Akutagawa."

Hearing this, Akaya Kirihara nodded.

"No problem!"

He was full of confidence now; before entering the semifinals, he had awakened through a match with an unknown elementary school.

And he successfully used Demon Mode.

This was all arranged by Seiichi Yukimura, who intentionally let the teammates playing before him lose, then let Akaya Kirihara's anger reach its peak.

Finally, he completely erupted and completed the awakening of Demon Mode!

Originally, the plan was to awaken in the semifinals, but after looking at the bracket, he found it would be Hyotei or Shitenhoji.

Both were strong enemies, so Seiichi Yukimura moved the awakening phase to the earlier matches.

At the time, Akaya Kirihara naively thought they were just in poor form, so he didn't suspect anything.

Plus, the weather was very hot, which made him even angrier!

The awakening of Demon Mode was very successful!

Thinking of this, Akaya Kirihara even found it funny.

"Hyotei, let's see how we defeat you this time!"

Subsequently, Renji Yanagi served.

He tossed the tennis ball into the air!

The moment the ball fell, he jumped and swung his racket!

"Bang!"

The ball flew rapidly over the net, and Yushi Oshitari, standing in the front row, shouted.

"Jiro, it's a topspin shot!"

Jiro Akutagawa grinned and said: "Got it! Watch me hit it back!"

He rushed over quickly, and the moment the ball landed and bounced, he swung his racket rapidly!

"Bang!"

The ball soared rapidly!

It turned into a yellow streak and flew over the net!

The target was the left baseline corner of the court!

Renji Yanagi, who was standing at the right baseline corner, didn't move at all.

Jiro Akutagawa thought he was going to score, and he said very happily.

"First point secured!"

Just as he finished speaking, Akaya Kirihara, who was still in front of the net, suddenly moved.

Following that, he revealed a crazy smile and shouted.

"It's not that simple!"

"Watch me hit it back!"

His legs exerted force suddenly, and he reached the baseline at an extremely fast speed.

Immediately after, he lunged forward with his racket, and the ball landed right on it.

"Bang!"

The ball hit the racket and returned to Yushi Oshitari's court in a gentle arc.

Yushi Oshitari, standing in the front row, held his racket horizontally.

That's right, he was going to hit a drop shot.

Currently, both Akaya Kirihara and Renji Yanagi were at the baseline, so it was the perfect opportunity for a drop shot!

As soon as the ball crossed the net, Yushi Oshitari swung his racket directly to slice it!

"Bang!"

The ball bounced lightly, then crossed the net and landed.

"Bang!"

The sound was very crisp.

Yushi Oshitari noticed that Renji Yanagi still didn't move, and only Akaya Kirihara was desperately rushing toward the net.

But he still didn't make it in time.

After the ball bounced twice, the referee immediately announced the score.

"15:0!"

"Hyotei takes the first point!"

Regarding this, Akaya Kirihara scratched his head at Renji Yanagi.

"Sorry, Senior Yanagi, I almost made it."

Renji Yanagi still smiled with his eyes squinted.

"It doesn't matter, play with all your might, try to score as much as possible; if you can't, it's fine, I only need to collect their data."

Hearing this, Akaya Kirihara nodded and felt relieved.

"Senior Yanagi with squinted eyes is still very scary; I really don't know how the President and the others get along with him."

Seeing Renji Yanagi's situation, Yushi Oshitari immediately knew what he wanted to do.

He walked to Jiro Akutagawa's side and said.

"Jiro, in the upcoming match, you cannot use your full strength."

"Lower your strength to 80%."

"Renji Yanagi on the other side is the same type of tennis player as Sadaharu Inui from Seigaku."

"They both play data tennis; if he collects our real data, then this match will be controlled by him."

Hearing Yushi Oshitari's serious tone, Jiro Akutagawa nodded.

"What a scary ability, it seems quite interesting."

He didn't become as serious as Yushi Oshitari; instead, he was very excited!

He was even looking forward to Renji Yanagi using his so-called data tennis soon.

He wanted to see how Renji Yanagi's data tennis differed from Seigaku's Sadaharu Inui.

Subsequently, Renji Yanagi took the tennis ball thrown by the staff.

Immediately after, he served.

And it was just an ordinary serve; after serving, he stood in place, squinting his eyes as he watched Yushi Oshitari and Jiro Akutagawa.

Regarding this, Yushi Oshitari glanced at Jiro Akutagawa.

Jiro Akutagawa understood immediately and hurried to receive the ball.

"Bang!"

After the ball landed, Jiro Akutagawa arrived as well.

He swung his racket quickly.

This time, he hit it directly in front of Renji Yanagi.

"Bang!"

The ball flew rapidly over the net and landed exactly in front of Renji Yanagi.

As long as Renji Yanagi raised his hand and swung his racket, he could receive it.

But he didn't move; instead, he turned his gaze toward Akaya Kirihara.

Akaya Kirihara was rushing toward this side quickly.

"I don't need Senior Yanagi to make a move to beat you guys!"

"Bang!"

The ball was hit back immediately.

Seeing this scene, Yushi Oshitari confirmed his inner suspicion.

"Sure enough! He is collecting data!"

Eiji Kikumaru from the Seigaku cheering squad complained directly.

"Wow, this guy named Renji Yanagi is too high and mighty, actually letting a junior receive his own ball!"

"He could clearly receive it himself!"

Seeing this, Sadaharu Inui pushed up his glasses and said.

"That's not it, Yanagi is collecting data on Oshitari and Akutagawa."

Yanagi?

Calling him by his first name, everyone suddenly realized something was not quite right.

Eiji Kikumaru asked everyone's question.

"Inui, you seem very familiar with Renji Yanagi."

Sadaharu Inui nodded.

"Yes, he used to be my tennis partner, and he was the one who taught me how to play data tennis."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked!

"The data tennis you use was actually taught by him?"

"Then isn't he very powerful?!"

Sadaharu Inui didn't speak, but one could tell from his expression that Renji Yanagi was not simple!

"It seems Hyotei is going to have a tough battle; if they don't win this match, Hyotei will be in danger."

Hearing this, Satoshi Horio asked suspiciously.

"Why? Even if Hyotei loses this match, the score is only 2:0, they still have a chance to catch up, right?"

Seeing this, Shusuke Fuji smiled with his eyes squinted and explained.

"This match is very important for Hyotei; they have already lost the first match, and losing another one would mean two consecutive defeats, which is very demoralizing."

"So only by winning this match can Hyotei regain their morale; morale is very important in team matches."

Satoshi Horio suddenly realized!

"So that's it!"

At the same time, the referee announced the score again.

"30:0!"

Although Akaya Kirihara was very strong, it was still difficult to play one against two.

He could only hold on for a few rounds before he couldn't receive the ball anymore.

Yushi Oshitari and Jiro Akutagawa always hit long-distance balls.

Akaya Kirihara had to run across the whole court to receive the ball, and almost every time, it was a ball he barely managed to reach.

In the end, the first game was taken by Hyotei.

"1:0!"

"The second game begins, Yushi Oshitari to serve."

Seeing this, Renji Yanagi said to Akaya Kirihara.

"Akaya, you can use Demon Mode in this game."

Hearing this, Akaya Kirihara's eyes became crazy, and his whole expression gradually became ferocious!

"Finally, I can use that move!"
