~8 min read 1,428 words

At this very moment, the match entered a tie-break.

The Seigaku team had their hearts in their throats.

Because the current overall score was 2:1!

As long as Hyotei won one more match, today’s competition would be completely over.

And Hyotei would be this year’s national champion!

So Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi could not lose.

The two of them were also clear about the situation.

"Eiji, we absolutely cannot lose!"

Shuichiro Oishi said seriously, gasping for air.

Eiji Kikumaru performed a wrist-flip with his racket and nodded heavily.

"That goes without saying, Oishi, the real battle is only just beginning^A^!"

"Let’s show them the infinite possibilities of doubles!"

Shuichiro Oishi was very surprised; Eiji Kikumaru’s current stamina was actually better than his!

Although he was panting a little, his breathing was not disordered.

He had previously thought that Eiji Kikumaru should have the worst stamina of the four.

But now it seemed that among the four, Eiji Kikumaru’s stamina actually ranked first.

"Eiji, it seems you’ve put a lot of effort into your stamina!"

Shuichiro Oishi couldn't help but exclaim.

Seeing the two opposite them full of confidence, Ryo Shishido scoffed.

"It’s laughable, at a time like this, you think the match is just beginning?"

"Ohtori, let’s take the national championship that belongs to Hyotei!"

Seeing this, Chotaro Ohtori nodded seriously.

At this moment, both of their hearts were also very nervous and excited.

Their stamina was also almost bottomed out.

Subsequently, the umpire blew the whistle for the tie-break!

"Whoosh!"

"Tie-break officially begins!"

"Hyotei Ohtori to serve first!"

Hearing this, Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi adjusted their positions.

Although Chotaro Ohtori had no stamina left.

He could still forcibly hit a Neo-Cannon Serve, or at worst, a Heavy Cannon Serve.

So they had to be prepared.

It was a tie-break now; losing one point would affect their morale.

Subsequently, Chotaro Ohtori served!

He tossed the tennis ball into the air and then jumped up fiercely, swinging his racket with all his might!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball turned into a streak of yellow light and slammed heavily onto the court.

But the force and speed of this ball were clearly not a Neo-Cannon Serve!

It looked like Chotaro Ohtori’s stamina was no longer enough to hit a Neo-Cannon Serve.

Shuichiro Oishi quickly went to receive the ball!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball flew back, and Ryo Shishido started running!

"Oishi, your stamina is already gone."

"You are the flaw!"

"Bang!"

Ryo Shishido hit the tennis ball toward Shuichiro Oishi’s direction.

The target was the sideline!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball hit the sideline precisely; Shuichiro Oishi’s stamina could no longer keep up.

Even though the tennis ball was right in front of him, he still couldn't catch it!

He watched helplessly as the tennis ball flew out of bounds.

Seeing this, the umpire quickly called the score.

"1:0!"

They lost a point!

Seeing this scene, Satoshi Horio started to look miserable.

"Oh no! What is Senior Oishi doing?"

"This ball could clearly have been caught, if only the racket had moved one step further forward."

Hearing this, Ryoma Echizen suddenly said.

"It’s useless, Senior Oishi’s stamina is already bottomed out."

"Every step he takes feels like he’s wearing lead weights; even if the ball is close, he can't catch it."

Hearing Ryoma Echizen’s voice, the entire Seigaku team looked over.

"Echizen! You’ve recovered your memory?!"

Everyone was very excited!

Ryoma Echizen nodded.

"Yeah, I just remembered, seeing Senior Oishi trying so hard, I finally recalled it."

Kunimitsu Tezuka looked at Ryoma Echizen with gratification.

"Echizen, you’ve finally recovered."

At the same time, Takeshi Momoshiro immediately told the two on the court the news.

"Senior Kikumaru!"

"Senior Oishi!"

"Echizen has recovered his memory! You guys can't lose here!"

Takeshi Momoshiro shouted with all his might; both Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi heard it.

Not only them, but those nearby heard it too.

Seeing this, Aki Kamishiro smiled slightly.

Regardless of whether Ryoma Echizen recovered his memory, he wouldn't have a chance to play anyway.

But Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi didn't think so.

They were full of fighting spirit right now!

That’s right!

If they lost, Seigaku would really lose!

They had to let Ryoma Echizen play.

So they couldn't lose this match!

Seeing this, Shuichiro Oishi said.

"Eiji, let’s go all out with full concentration!"

Hearing this, Eiji Kikumaru joked.

"Oishi, why are you copying the captain’s words!"

Shuichiro Oishi scratched his head with a sheepish smile.

"I’m just trying to boost our morale, the captain’s lines are more imposing!"

The two were chatting and laughing.

Ryo Shishido looked on coldly.

"Death is at their doorstep, and they’re still giggling, these two are really something."

"Ohtori, we must not slack off!"

"Yes, Senior Shishido!"

At this moment, they saw Shuichiro Oishi come to the net.

While Eiji Kikumaru was at the baseline.

"This is... Oishi’s Domain!"

Oishi’s Domain had appeared in previous doubles matches as well.

So Ryo Shishido understood.

The so-called Oishi’s Domain is when Oishi, who was originally responsible for defense in the backcourt, moves to the net.

Using his own wide field of vision to judge the opponent’s situation from the closest point.

Then instantly giving instructions to Eiji Kikumaru behind him, thereby achieving an instantaneous reaction.

Perfectly solving his disadvantage of having his stamina bottomed out at this moment.

As expected of Seigaku’s golden pair, their strength cannot be underestimated.

At this moment, Eiji Kikumaru was serving.

"Bang!"

The tennis ball came rapidly.

Ryo Shishido observed the movements of the two.

He saw Eiji Kikumaru stop moving after serving, completely waiting for Shuichiro Oishi’s instructions.

The tennis ball had already arrived, and Ryo Shishido had no time to think.

He hit it directly to the wide-open right side!

"Bang!"

Just as the tennis ball left the racket, Shuichiro Oishi immediately made a gesture behind him!

Eiji Kikumaru immediately started running!

Ryo Shishido shouted loudly!

"Ohtori! Watch out for Kikumaru on the right!"

Chotaro Ohtori stared at Eiji Kikumaru’s figure and nodded heavily in response.

"Got it, Senior Shishido!"

"Bang!"

Eiji Kikumaru easily handled it and hit the tennis ball back.

At this moment, Chotaro Ohtori jumped up fiercely!

"I won’t let you succeed!"

Just as the tennis ball crossed the net, he swung his racket directly and smashed it down heavily!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball flew straight toward Shuichiro Oishi’s direction.

"Smash!"

"Bang!"

The tennis ball landed heavily and started flying toward Shuichiro Oishi’s side.

The force of this ball was great; Eiji Kikumaru wouldn't be able to catch it!

So, Shuichiro Oishi received it directly!

He held his racket with both hands and swung it fiercely!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball slammed into the racket with great force.

The powerful impact made Shuichiro Oishi pause for a moment!

What a strong force!

But he still hit it back!

However, he could clearly feel his wrist injury flaring up.

But he still pretended to be calm, trying not to let anyone notice!

"1:1!"

The situation became increasingly intense!

Ryo Shishido wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, panting slightly.

"Ohtori, this is the last match, it’s time to use that move."

Chotaro Ohtori nodded.

"No problem, I’m ready at any time!"

For the third ball, Shuichiro Oishi served.

"Bang!"

The tennis ball flew across the net in an instant!

Ryo Shishido quickly ran over to receive the ball!

"Bang!"

After the tennis ball was hit back, Eiji Kikumaru quickly went to receive it.

When he aimed, he found that only Ryo Shishido was on the other side!

"Oishi! Only Ryo Shishido is on the other side!"

There was no time to think, he had to hit the tennis ball back quickly!

"Bang!"

Seeing this, Shuichiro Oishi frowned slightly.

What kind of game were they playing?

Subsequently, he saw the figure of Chotaro Ohtori behind Ryo Shishido.

Immediately following, he saw the two of them running together.

"Bang!"

When the tennis ball landed, both swung their rackets together!

The whole arena gasped!

"What kind of move is this?!"

Ryo Shishido swung his racket rapidly, but did not hit the tennis ball.

Instead, he let Chotaro Ohtori hit the ball!

"Bang!"

A corner ball!

Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi were half a beat slow.

"Bang!"

The tennis ball landed precisely on the sideline.

And then went out of bounds!

The umpire immediately called the score!

"2:1!"

A joint-action play?!

Everyone had never seen this kind of doubles formation.

Ryo Shishido waved his racket and said.

"How about it, Oishi? This is our Overlapping Mirage formation!"

Overlapping Mirage?!
