Chapter 176: Shuichiro Oishi: I

~7 min read 1,298 words

The ball speed was very fast!

The tennis ball had just bounced when Ryo Shishido immediately reacted.

At this moment, he was standing near the net and quickly shouted to Chotaro Ohtori.

"Ohtori!"

And Chotaro Ohtori had already reached the landing spot of the tennis ball.

He quickly swung his racket to hit the tennis ball.

"Bang!"

"Get back!"

The tennis ball was hit right back.

Seeing this, Eiji Kikumaru was not discouraged but smiled instead.

"Oh my, still not fast enough!"

But at this moment, Ryo Shishido noticed Shuichiro Oishi dragging his racket toward the net.

Ryo Shishido thought to himself, not good!

"Ohtori, watch out for the right side!"

"Got it, Senior Shishido!"

Hearing Chotaro Ohtori’s response, Ryo Shishido quickly retreated.

Seeing Shuichiro Oishi’s stance, he was about to use the Moon Volley!

The Moon Volley, starting with the racket dragging on the ground, uses a precise high-lob topspin volley to attack the opponent’s blind spot.

And Shuichiro Oishi’s ball control was excellent, able to hit the tennis ball exactly on the baseline.

Ryo Shishido had suffered from this before.

He wouldn't be fooled again!

"Oishi, we’ve seen through you!"

Ryo Shishido came to the middle-left position of the court.

Forming a very good defensive position with Chotaro Ohtori’s right side.

No matter where Shuichiro Oishi hit, they would be able to return it.

The tennis ball flew over the net, and Shuichiro Oishi immediately swung his racket.

That’s right!

It was the motion of a high-lob topspin volley!

Just as Ryo Shishido had guessed!

But at this moment, the racket in Shuichiro Oishi’s hand suddenly stopped!

The racket gently tapped the tennis ball, forming a drop shot.

Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori were both stunned!

"Wrong! Not a Moon Volley!"

Ryo Shishido couldn't help but speak his inner thoughts.

Seeing this, Shuichiro Oishi smiled.

"That’s right, it’s indeed not a Moon Volley, but a Moon Drop Shot!"

The tennis ball gently crossed the net and landed quietly.

"Ping!"

Seeing this, the umpire immediately called the score.

"15:0!"

The whole arena was stunned; no one expected Shuichiro Oishi to hit a drop shot!

Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori also began to play seriously.

Shuichiro Oishi had been injured before.

But now he was able to play in the finals.

This meant his injury had completely healed, and his strength could not be underestimated!

The match continued, and it was unusually intense.

The golden doubles of both sides played as if they had been injected with adrenaline!

A serve landed behind Shuichiro Oishi.

"Bang!"

"3:3!"

The score was very close; it looked like it would go to a tie-break.

Shuichiro Oishi felt that if it went to a tie-break, the situation would be very unfavorable for Eiji Kikumaru.

Although he had done a lot of hypoxic training to improve his stamina and endurance.

But Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori were not standing still either.

By comparison, among the four on the court, Eiji Kikumaru’s stamina was still the last.

As such, there was only one tactic left for Shuichiro Oishi.

Score as much as possible to widen the gap.

Seeing this, he said to Eiji Kikumaru.

"Eiji, let’s take control of the situation in one go!"

Seeing Shuichiro Oishi’s gesture, Eiji Kikumaru immediately understood.

He quickly adjusted his position.

"OK! Let’s shake them off right here!"

When the formation was formed, Ryo Shishido frowned slightly.

"Is that the Australian Formation?!"

To this, he performed a cool racket-flipping gesture and then shouted to Chotaro Ohtori.

"Ohtori!"

Chotaro Ohtori immediately understood.

Subsequently, the two stood on the left side of the court, between the baseline and the center line.

The two were one in front and one behind.

Once this formation appeared, the whole arena was confused.

"What kind of formation is this?"

"Both are on the left, doesn't that mean the right side and the front are undefended?"

That may be so, but the serve must land in the service area.

This did not affect their return of serve.

The true purpose of this formation was to block the left-and-right movement of the Australian Formation.

Shuichiro Oishi was still hesitating, but the serving time was almost up.

He no longer hesitated and tossed the tennis ball into the air.

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

"Bang!"

The tennis ball was hit to the right service area!

Seeing this, Ryo Shishido smiled.

"I knew you would hit to the right!"

"But Ohtori has been prepared all along!"

The two immediately separated, and Chotaro Ohtori went to receive the ball.

While Ryo Shishido rushed rapidly toward the net!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball was hit back, and the position was toward Eiji Kikumaru.

Seeing this, Eiji Kikumaru jumped and swung his racket backward!

"Watch my acrobatic shot!"

Subsequently, he began to observe the landing spot of the tennis ball.

Ryo Shishido had already rushed to the net, and the front of the net was blocked.

And Chotaro Ohtori was on the left, while the right side was wide open!

"There’s a gap!"

"Bang!"

The tennis ball was hit out by Eiji Kikumaru, flying precisely toward the right side of the court.

But at this moment, Ryo Shishido asked with a smile.

"You can only hit to that spot, right?"

Hearing this, Eiji Kikumaru reacted instantly!

"Not good!"

The next instant, he saw Chotaro Ohtori had already appeared on the right side of the court...

"Bang!"

Just as the tennis ball landed, Chotaro Ohtori immediately swung his racket rapidly!

"Bang!"

A powerful impact rushed toward the left side of the court.

That’s right, this was the new formation they had specifically developed to block the Australian Formation!

Clearly, this was not a heavy ball that Eiji Kikumaru could return!

At this moment, Shuichiro Oishi dragged his racket and stepped forward!

"I’ve got it!"

Hearing this, Eiji Kikumaru quickly moved aside.

Seeing this stance, Ryo Shishido quickly ran back toward the baseline!

This was Chotaro Ohtori’s heavy ball; no matter what, Shuichiro Oishi would be unable to hit a Moon Drop Shot.

So this ball was Shuichiro Oishi’s signature move, the Moon Volley!

"Bang!"

Shuichiro Oishi swung his racket and hit a high-lob topspin volley!

"It appeared! It’s the Moon Volley!"

Satoshi Horio shouted loudly outside the court.

Ryo Shishido quickly returned to the baseline!

The Moon Volley would land precisely on the baseline.

Sure enough, the tennis ball landed precisely on the baseline.

"Bang!"

Ryo Shishido quickly lunged out and swung his racket directly at the tennis ball!

"Bang!"

He caught it?!

The whole arena gasped!

Shuichiro Oishi frowned slightly.

The tennis ball flew straight toward the middle of the court.

And the speed was extremely fast!

Eiji Kikumaru quickly ran over!

At this moment, the tennis ball just grazed the net and crossed it.

"Swish!"

The tennis ball changed from a fast ball to a drop shot!

Eiji Kikumaru had just reacted, but the tennis ball had already landed.

"15:0!"

Seeing this, Eiji Kikumaru groaned in frustration.

"Oh my, what a pity!"

This scene was all seen by Aki Kamishiro.

The rapport between Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori was getting higher and higher.

They were actually able to perfectly block the Australian Formation of Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi.

He had initially thought that Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori could slightly gain the advantage and win.

But clearly not; in the calculations of the Sharingan.

They would still go to a tie-break!

Moreover, the Sharingan did not see the final result of this match.

This national championship was not easy to take!

Sure enough, the golden doubles on both sides successfully brought the score to a tie!

"6:6!"

"It’s a tie-break!"

"It’s truly miraculous! Both sides are golden doubles, I wonder who is stronger!"
