Chapter 21: Aki Kamishiro vs. Jiro Akutagawa! A faster Finger-Gun Serve!
Aki Kamishiro took the tennis ball handed to him by someone else.
Just as he was about to serve.
The system’s voice rang out in his mind.
"Ding! Detected that you are currently in an official match."
"Ding! Issuing point mission immediately."
"Win the challenge match against regular team member Jiro Akutagawa to gain one point!"
Seeing this mission, Aki Kamishiro was ecstatic!
Even this kind of match could earn points!?
In that case, wouldn't he be able to draw lots of good things?
Right, he needed to quickly check if the points for beating Shinji Ibu and Hyotei’s victory had arrived.
Because Aki Kamishiro hadn't received any system notifications just now.
Seeing this, he quickly opened the system panel with a thought.
Looking at the change in the points column.
Points: 2!
Seeing this, Aki Kamishiro was ecstatic!
But now was not the time for a draw.
And based on previous experience, one or two points were not enough to draw good things.
He needed to prepare at least a bit more.
Aki Kamishiro suddenly remembered the green headband and rice crackers in the warehouse.
He wondered if there were any magical skills inside.
It seemed he would have to find time to study them later.
At this moment, Jiro Akutagawa saw Aki Kamishiro dazed and not serving.
He quickly asked.
"Kamishiro, what are you doing? Serve!"
Hearing someone call out, Aki Kamishiro came back to his senses.
Since it was a point mission, he had to win this match!
Seeing this, he responded.
"Alright! Senior Jiro, be ready to receive, I’m going to hit a Finger-Gun Serve!"
Finger-Gun Serve!
As soon as Jiro Akutagawa heard it was this serve, his whole body became excited!
"Alright! Bring it on!"
"I’ve been wanting to try receiving this serve for a long time!"
Seeing this, Aki Kamishiro tossed the tennis ball into the air.
After the ball reached its highest point, it fell.
Aki Kamishiro stared at the ball until it reached the optimal position, then swung his racket with force to serve!
"Bang!"
"Finger-Gun Serve!"
The ball crossed the net in an instant!
The ball speed was shockingly fast!
Jiro Akutagawa rushed over to receive it.
At this moment, the ball had already landed.
At the same time, Jiro Akutagawa’s racket arrived!
Everyone held their breath.
Jiro Akutagawa swung his racket violently!
"Whew!"
The tennis ball brushed past his racket.
A very unfortunate shot!
Seeing this, Jiro Akutagawa said regretfully.
"Ah, what a pity, just missed it."
Immediately, he shouted excitedly to Aki Kamishiro.
"But, Kamishiro, this Finger-Gun Serve of yours is really amazing!"
"It’s actually faster than Ohtori’s!"
Although he didn't speak loudly, almost everyone in the venue heard him.
This also included Choutarou Ohtori.
Although it was a bit hurtful, he had to admit that what Jiro Akutagawa said was the truth.
Therefore, he secretly made up his mind that he must raise his tennis to another level.
Otherwise, his position would definitely be shaken.
Hyotei relied on strength to speak.
Once he slacked off, he might be replaced by someone else.
As for what he was thinking, Jiro Akutagawa wasn't very clear.
But he felt he should be able to receive Aki Kamishiro’s Finger-Gun Serve.
Keigo Atobe, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but smile.
"Oh~ not bad, that guy Jiro actually almost touched Kamishiro’s Finger-Gun Serve."
"Maybe he really could receive Kamishiro’s Finger-Gun Serve."
"Right, Kabaji?"
Hiroshi Kabaji, standing behind him, nodded woodenly and replied.
"Yes!"
But Yuushi Oshitari didn't think so; he pushed up his glasses and analyzed.
"I don't think Jiro Akutagawa can receive Kamishiro’s Finger-Gun Serve yet."
"At least not in this game."
"Look at Kamishiro’s eyes, there’s no sign of surprise at all; it’s as if everything is exactly as he expected."
Seeing this, Keigo Atobe looked at Aki Kamishiro’s state.
Indeed, there was no change.
Actually, Yuushi Oshitari’s analysis was correct.
Aki Kamishiro had only used thirty percent of his strength for that Finger-Gun Serve.
However, it still made him feel a bit surprised.
He hadn't expected Jiro Akutagawa’s reaction speed to be this fast.
He had almost touched his Finger-Gun Serve.
It was just that he didn't show his surprise.
It looked like he would have to increase the intensity for the next ball.
He would use fifty percent strength.
The ball speed from fifty percent strength could reach 220 kilometers per hour.
With such a fast speed, Jiro Akutagawa shouldn't be able to receive it!
One had to know that Choutarou Ohtori’s fastest serve, the Heavy Cannon Serve, was only 217 kilometers per hour.
Jiro Akutagawa at this stage shouldn't be able to receive it.
Thinking of this, Aki Kamishiro served.
He shouted!
"Senior Jiro, pay attention! This ball will be even faster!"
Hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded.
The Finger-Gun Serve was already very fast!
Could it really be even faster!?
Without waiting for them to think, Aki Kamishiro tossed the ball into the air.
The ball fell, and Aki Kamishiro swung his racket violently!
"Bang!"
"Finger-Gun Serve!"
The ball crossed the net in an instant!
And the speed was unbelievably fast!
Everyone was startled!
Jiro Akutagawa tried to receive this faster Finger-Gun Serve!
But he found it was simply impossible!
"Bang!"
The moment the ball landed, it crossed the baseline as fast as a bullet.
"Clang!"
Seeing the ball slam into the protective net.
Jiro Akutagawa was slightly stunned.
Immediately, he ran to Keigo Atobe with an excited face and shouted.
"Atobe! Atobe! Did you see that just now?"
"This guy Kamishiro is really strong!"
"That ball just now must have exceeded 210 kilometers per hour!"
Looking at Jiro Akutagawa’s excited face.
Keigo Atobe didn't know what to say.
When he wasn't interested, he looked dazed and half-asleep.
When he was interested, he was excited to death.
However, Jiro Akutagawa was right about one thing.
Aki Kamishiro was truly strong!
If Keigo Atobe were to play a match against him right now.
Keigo Atobe himself wasn't sure he could win.
Seeing this, he quickly told Jiro Akutagawa to return to the court to continue the match.
Immediately, he said to Yuushi Oshitari.
"Oshitari, it seems I need to speed up the progress of that domain of mine."
Hearing this, Yuushi Oshitari adjusted his glasses and teased.
"Oh, Atobe, are you worried that your strength won't be enough to beat Kamishiro?"
Keigo Atobe, of course, wouldn't admit it.
He quickly said.
"Ridiculous, I just want to speed up the progress; we’ll be facing Seigaku soon."
"At that time, I’ll have to duel with Kunimitsu Tezuka."
"You know the power of the Tezuka Zone."
"I just want to beat Kunimitsu Tezuka now!"
Seeing him explain so laboriously, Yuushi Oshitari couldn't help but expose him.
To face Seigaku, they still needed to play several matches.
Even if they rushed the progress, they could almost complete that domain.
Keigo Atobe was so anxious, and he still said he wasn't afraid of losing to Aki Kamishiro?
Anyway, Yuushi Oshitari didn't believe it.
At this time, Jiro Akutagawa was full of confidence again.
He shouted again.
"Kamishiro, continue!"
"Keep attacking me with your Finger-Gun Serve!"
