Chapter 201
To this, Kamishiro Aki was indifferent.
Who couldn't talk tough!
Winning the match was what truly mattered.
Besides, one shouldn't listen to the coaching staff anyway.
The so-called leaving the camp was just leaving the camp.
They would definitely be recalled for the World Cup.
Neither Byodoin Ho-o nor Kamishiro Aki wanted the other to leave the Sakura representative team.
But the camp rules had to be followed.
Kamishiro Aki didn't mind, because he was going to win this match!
After returning to Court 1, everyone's eyes turned toward them.
At the same time, Tane-ga-shima Shuji smiled at the crowd.
"If that last point counts, the score is now 30:0!"
"Kami is in the lead!"
When this was said, the whole court was stunned!
Kamishiro Aki had actually taken two points from Byodoin Ho-o?!
The most shocked was Tokugawa Kazuya!
He had always wanted to defeat Byodoin Ho-o.
But now, not only had Kamishiro Aki beaten him to it, he was actually in the lead?!
At this moment, Kamishiro Aki jumped down onto the court.
Then he said to Byodoin Ho-o.
"That was just a warm-up; the match starts now."
Byodoin Ho-o couldn't stand this kind of attitude.
He also jumped down onto the court immediately.
Seeing this, the referee immediately announced.
"The doubles match is postponed; the singles match begins now!"
"Representative team's Byodoin Ho-o vs.!"
"Second-string's Kamishiro Aki!"
"Byodoin Ho-o to serve first!"
"The first match officially begins!"
The match had officially started!
Everyone was filled with anticipation.
Byodoin Ho-o gripped the tennis ball in his hand.
Immediately after, the tennis ball suddenly emitted a dazzling light!
"It's the Light Strike Shot!"
"Using the Light Strike Shot right from the start?"
Those who had seen Byodoin Ho-o's serve before were stunned.
And those who hadn't seen the Light Strike Shot could also feel that this serve was very extraordinary.
Byodoin Ho-o shouted in a low voice.
"Be destroyed!"
Following that, the glowing tennis ball slipped from his hand.
The next instant, he pulled his racket back to its maximum reach!
He aimed at the falling ball and swung with all his might!
"Bang!"
Hum—
The powerful shockwave erupted from the tennis ball and rushed straight toward Kamishiro Aki!
Everyone finally realized what a terrifying move this "Light Strike Shot" was!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball slammed heavily into the ground and rebounded toward Kamishiro Aki.
The speed was extremely fast!
If hit, it would definitely draw blood!
Kamishiro Aki shifted slightly to the left, and his right-hand racket met the ball head-on!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball slammed heavily into the racket.
The immense impact force caused the wall behind Kamishiro Aki to cave in!
"Boom!"
A giant crater appeared on the wall behind Kamishiro Aki!
Seeing this, the whole court gasped!
"Is this the true strength of the representative team's No. 1?!"
Everyone was dumbfounded!
They suddenly felt that the tennis they knew was just child's play.
It was simply not from the same world!
"Kamishiro Aki shouldn't be able to return that; the power of this shot is too strong!"
Inui Sadaharu adjusted his glasses and analyzed.
The others nodded as well.
The power of the Light Strike Shot was so immense.
They believed that even Kamishiro Aki couldn't return it.
But the next instant, Kamishiro Aki let out a low shout!
"Get back there!"
"Bang!"
The tennis ball, which was in a power struggle with him, was hit right back!
Everyone was stunned!
"He returned it?!"
"Can a serve with that kind of power actually be returned?!"
Seeing this, Tane-ga-shima Shuji smiled.
"I told you, regarding the private fight earlier, Kami is in the lead!"
Only when he said this did everyone realize Tane-ga-shima Shuji wasn't just talking nonsense.
And at this moment, Byodoin Ho-o was already prepared.
He knew Kamishiro Aki could return the Light Strike Shot!
Therefore, he had anticipated the direction of Kamishiro Aki's return.
"Bang!"
The moment the ball landed, he swung his racket immediately!
"Bang!"
The tennis ball blasted into the corner on Kamishiro Aki's left side at extreme speed.
"Bang!"
The tennis ball flew out past the baseline rapidly.
"15:0!"
"First-string scores!"
Kamishiro Aki frowned slightly.
That last shot was so fast!
Faster than any return shot he had ever received!
Seeing this, Tane-ga-shima Shuji scratched his head and smiled.
"Oh my, he got slapped in the face."
"Kami, put in more effort, I still want you to be my boss."
As soon as he said this, Byodoin Ho-o glanced over.
"Shuji, watch your words."
"This brat is a hundred years too early to beat me!"
Tane-ga-shima Shuji shrugged and smiled.
"Yes, yes!"
Duke Watanabe, standing to the side, smiled.
"The boss's strength is more than just this; everyone, watch carefully."
At this moment, Kamishiro Aki replied calmly.
"Serve, the match has only just begun."
As soon as he finished speaking, the tennis ball in Byodoin Ho-o's hand glowed and fell again.
"Be destroyed!"
"Bang!"
Another Light Strike Shot rushed toward Kamishiro Aki!
"Bang!"
The next instant, the tennis ball slammed down right in front of Kamishiro Aki.
In the blink of an eye, the ball was right in front of him.
Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki moved slightly to the left and swung his racket to strike the ball.
"Bang!"
The powerful impact carried by the ball caused further damage to the wall behind him.
The next instant, Kamishiro Aki let out a light shout!
"Platinum: Super Speed!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the tennis ball appeared at Byodoin Ho-o's feet.
"Bang!"
The tennis ball slammed down rapidly and hit the wall behind him.
"Thud, thud-thud..."
The whole court was dumbfounded!
"What just happened?!"
"So fast!"
Even Ochi Tsukimitsu was stunned!
He couldn't even see the speed of that last shot!
It definitely exceeded the top speed of the Mach Serve!
At the same time, the referee immediately said.
"15:15!"
"Second-string scores!"
Hearing this, the representative team members finally reacted.
"The boss's Light Strike Shot was broken?!"
Duke Watanabe said in astonishment.
He had just said Byodoin Ho-o's strength was immense, only to be slapped in the face.
The most shocked was Tokugawa Kazuya.
Although his current strength allowed him to return the Light Strike Shot.
It was absolutely impossible for him to make Byodoin Ho-o unable to react.
Yet Kamishiro Aki had done it!
"Kami is indeed very strong!"
The shock of the others was nothing compared to Byodoin Ho-o's.
He had clearly seen the tennis ball flying over.
But in the blink of an eye, the ball was gone.
Then his ears heard the sound of the ball hitting the ground and the sound of it hitting the wall behind him.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
In just a single moment, Kamishiro Aki had scored!
It looked simple, but it was actually very difficult!
The spin of the Light Strike Shot was very strong, making it hard enough to return.
And Kamishiro Aki had not only neutralized the spin of the Light Strike Shot.
He had even hit it back at extreme speed.
And Byodoin Ho-o hadn't even had time to react!
Seeing this, Byodoin Ho-o frowned tightly.
Kamishiro Aki now forced him to go all out.
He could no longer treat Kamishiro Aki as just a middle school student.
But as a true competitor.
Thinking of this, Byodoin Ho-o served again.
Still a Light Strike Shot!
"Bang!"
Just after serving, Byodoin Ho-o prepared himself immediately.
Kamishiro Aki shifted his feet slightly and swung his racket rapidly!
"Platinum: Super Speed!"
"Bang!"
The next instant, Byodoin Ho-o saw the tennis ball flying back!
This time, he stared fixedly at the ball.
But the moment the ball crossed the net, it disappeared!
"Bang!"
Immediately after, the sound of the ball hitting the ground reached his ears.
He instinctively swung his racket toward the source of the sound!
"Swish!"
He swung at empty air!
The tennis ball hit the wall behind him.
"Bang!"
"Thud, thud-thud..."
"15:30!"
"Second-string scores!"
The whole court was shocked again!
It confirmed that Byodoin Ho-o's Light Strike Shot had truly been broken by Kamishiro Aki.
"15:40!"
"Second-string scores!"
"0:1!"
