Chapter 178: We are the champions! U17 invitation! (Seeking full subscription!)
The Seigaku team was very shocked.
Satoshi Horio, acting as the mouthpiece for everyone, asked the question in their hearts.
"What on earth is going on here?"
"Why did I only see that guy named Shishido?"
Seeing this, Sadaharu Inui pushed up his glasses and explained.
"The reason is simple, it’s not just Shishido on the court, but Chotaro Ohtori is sticking close behind him."
"This creates a visual illusion, as if there is only Shishido alone."
"The two overlap together, standing on one line to face the enemy."
"Making the opponent feel like they only saw one person, thereby confusing their senses."
"This is a formation that makes it impossible to judge their movements!"
Hearing Sadaharu Inui’s explanation, everyone nodded in sudden realization.
Although Shuichiro Oishi didn't hear Sadaharu Inui’s analysis, he had roughly guessed it.
Previously, Shishido and the others had used this formation to block his and Eiji Kikumaru’s Australian Formation.
The current formation was clearly an advanced version of the previous one.
Subsequently, it was Ryo Shishido’s turn to serve.
"Bang!"
After serving, Chotaro Ohtori stayed close behind Ryo Shishido.
At this moment, the doubles match seemed to have turned into a singles match.
In the perspective of Shuichiro Oishi and Eiji Kikumaru, there was only Ryo Shishido on the court.
The next instant, the tennis ball crossed the net rapidly!
Shuichiro Oishi went to receive the ball!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball was hit back, slamming rapidly into the ground.
"Bang!"
And at this moment, Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori ran together.
Their movements were very synchronized, catching the moment the tennis ball bounced, both swung their rackets at the same time!
This was the powerful aspect of this formation.
Confusing the opponent, making it impossible to know who was swinging the racket!
After all, the moment the tennis ball is hit, one must immediately judge its landing spot.
Otherwise, one would miss the best time to hit it!
Once missed, it was equivalent to missing the tennis ball!
Eiji Kikumaru quickly observed with his dynamic vision.
But Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori swung their rackets almost simultaneously!
Either one could hit the tennis ball!
"Who on earth is going to hit the tennis ball?"
"That’s right! It must be Shishido!"
After he decided, Shuichiro Oishi quickly called out to stop him!
"Wait! Eiji!"
Eiji Kikumaru, who was about to start, stopped his steps.
And at this moment, Ryo Shishido successfully hit the tennis ball.
"Bang!"
The tennis ball flew rapidly toward the furthest corner sideline!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball flew out of bounds, and the umpire immediately called the score.
"3:1!"
"Hyotei scores!"
Seeing this, Shuichiro Oishi paused slightly.
He was a bit frustrated; if he hadn't called out to Eiji Kikumaru, he might have been able to catch this ball.
The situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable!
Seeing Shuichiro Oishi’s frustrated expression, Eiji Kikumaru walked over to comfort him.
"Oishi, don't be discouraged, didn't we agree to let Echizen play?"
"We absolutely cannot lose this match, so cheer up!"
"Until the very last ball, we cannot give up!"
Indeed!
This match absolutely could not be lost!
Everyone had worked so hard for so long, all for the national championship!
How could they lose!
Shuichiro Oishi reignited his fighting spirit.
Seeing this, Ryo Shishido flicked his racket.
"No matter how much fighting spirit you have, in the face of strength, you will still be defeated!"
"The championship belongs to Hyotei!"
"Ohtori, let’s go all out and bring the score to seven!"
"That goes without saying, Senior Shishido!"
"The championship belongs to Hyotei!"
After Chotaro Ohtori shouted loudly, he tossed the tennis ball into the air!
"Bang!"
Hyotei had the advantage at this moment.
Relying on the Overlapping Mirage formation, they had widened the score gap!
As the tennis ball fell, the umpire immediately called the score.
"5:1!"
"Hyotei scores!"
Seeing this score, the Seigaku team was in despair.
Satoshi Horio sighed.
"Hey, it looks like we’re going to lose!"
"It’s already 5:1, a 4-point gap, clearly it cannot be pulled back."
Although his words were discouraging, they were indeed the truth.
The Seigaku team also rarely said anything to him.
But Shuichiro Oishi and Eiji Kikumaru did not give up.
Instead, they were full of fighting spirit!
This made Ryo Shishido a bit confused.
Did these two not know what frustration was?
Even in this situation, they could still be so calm.
But no matter what, as long as they took these two points, this match would be over!
Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori used the Overlapping Mirage formation again.
Continuing to confuse Eiji Kikumaru and Shuichiro Oishi.
Intending to take one more point.
And just at this moment, Ryo Shishido noticed that the situation of Shuichiro Oishi and Eiji Kikumaru was a bit off!
Their movements were very fluid, and their positioning was staggered.
Completely integrated offense and defense!
But even so, Chotaro Ohtori still used the force of his heavy cannon to hit the tennis ball into the gap between the two!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball fell accordingly!
"6:1!"
"Hyotei scores!"
"Hyotei’s match point!"
Seeing this, Satoshi Horio looked miserable again.
"Wow! No way! It’s over, a 5-point gap, lost, lost~"
Ryoma Echizen also frowned.
"Still no way to play?"
Seeing this score, Yushi Oshitari pushed up his glasses and smiled.
"A 5-point gap, no matter how strong Seigaku is, they can't catch up."
"Looks like we can celebrate early!"
Aki Kamishiro really wanted to agree with Yushi Oshitari’s words.
But it was hard to say until the very last moment.
And looking at the stance of Shuichiro Oishi and Eiji Kikumaru.
It looked like they were going to use Synchronized Resonance.
Sure enough!
One could see that the eyes of those two were different.
As if they had entered some kind of space!
Subsequently, Chotaro Ohtori served!
"Bang!"
"I’ll end the match with this ball!"
The tennis ball crossed the net in an instant!
At this moment, Eiji Kikumaru arrived at the net almost instantly, without any warning!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball was hit back rapidly!
Seeing this, Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori used the Overlapping Mirage formation again to return it.
"It’s useless, no matter how much you struggle, it’s useless!"
Just as the words fell, Ryo Shishido hit the tennis ball with his racket.
The moment the racket touched the tennis ball, Ryo Shishido found that this ball was so heavy!
"How is this possible?!"
"This is... Synchronized Resonance?!"
The whole arena was shocked!
"Oishi and Kikumaru’s eyes have changed!"
"Their movements, their breathing are all very consistent!"
"It’s actually... Synchronized Resonance!"
Sadaharu Inui felt goosebumps all over his body.
He couldn't explain it; he was also seeing this doubles miracle for the first time.
At this moment, in Hyotei’s waiting area, everyone looked at Aki Kamishiro and Taro Sakaki.
Attempting to get a reasonable explanation.
For such an official explanation, it was naturally left to Taro Sakaki.
Taro Sakaki revealed a smile and said.
"Synchronized Resonance? Today’s match is truly interesting."
"A rare doubles miracle that can only happen in a desperate situation with no way out!"
"Even if they wanted to activate it, they wouldn't be able to."
"A style of play where you believe in your partner no matter what when you are deep in a desperate situation."
"Therefore, even the partner’s movements, thoughts, breathing frequency, and behavioral pace can be synchronized!"
"Knowing exactly how to act next, and knowing each other’s thoughts like the back of their hands."
"There was once a saying among the world’s top professional doubles players."
"If you can't achieve Synchronized Resonance, you can't dominate the world!"
"If these two can keep walking down this tennis path, they will definitely have a place in the professional arena!"
After hearing Taro Sakaki’s explanation.
Everyone gasped!
This was simply a divine skill for doubles!
Aki Kamishiro did know that this was the case, but he wasn't panicked.
Because Shuichiro Oishi had an injury to his wrist.
With Eiji Kikumaru’s thoughts, he definitely wouldn't let Shuichiro Oishi get hurt.
So, this match was definitely won!
Aki Kamishiro had already started looking forward to how many points he would get after winning the national championship.
Ever since they entered the top eight, the system hadn't released any point tasks.
There was only one task: lead Hyotei to win the national championship.
As for how many points it was, it didn't say, which made Aki Kamishiro very curious.
Of course, all of this had to wait until Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori won the match to know.
And at this moment, the tennis ball knocked Chotaro Ohtori’s racket away!
"Bang!"
"6:6!"
"Seigaku scores!"
"Switch sides!"
The score was actually tied!
This was something Aki Kamishiro hadn't expected.
Wait... this wouldn't turn around, would it?!
The plot wasn't supposed to go like this!
Subsequently, the four on the court switched sides.
Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori were already gasping for air.
They had no extra stamina to use the Overlapping Mirage formation.
They were very unwilling.
They were clearly one point away from taking the national championship trophy from their hands!
"Ohtori! We can't lose either!"
"This is my last time playing at Hyotei, I want us to take the national championship."
Ryo Shishido spoke his heart out for the first time so seriously.
Chotaro Ohtori murmured.
"Senior Shishido..."
"Don't worry! Senior Shishido, we will definitely win this match!"
Subsequently, the two looked at each other, their eyes extremely serious!
And the moment they stepped onto the court, their consciousnesses suddenly connected!
Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Ohtori seemed to have entered the clouds!
"Could this be..."
At this moment, outside the court.
Everyone noticed the look in the eyes of Ryo Shishido and Chotaro Otori.
Seeing this scene!
Taro Sakaki stood up with a jerk!
"Shishido and Ohtori have also entered Synchronized Resonance!"
Hearing this, the whole arena was shocked!
"As expected of Hyotei’s golden doubles!"
"They actually achieved Synchronized Resonance too!"
