Chapter 221

~8 min read 1,466 words

It was fine to take one game by surprise at the beginning.

But this is a doubles match, and a world-class one at that.

Once they find a flaw, they will certainly not let it go.

At this moment, the tennis ball fell violently!

"Bang!"

The tennis ball passed between Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro again!

"40:0!"

This is already match point for the Australia team.

As long as they win one more ball, they will win this first match.

At this moment, the whole stadium was filled with passion!

"Australia! Australia!"

"One more ball!"

"One more ball!"

Everyone felt that they couldn't win.

Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro were panting.

At this moment, Atobe Keigo shouted to them from the spectator seats.

"You don't usually play like this, do you? Huh?"

Hearing this,

Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro suddenly remembered that they were in a similar situation when they were children.

At that time, Sanada Genichiro said to Yukimura Seiichi while crying.

"Don't give up until the very last moment!"

"Absolutely do not give up!"

Subsequently, Yukimura Seiichi decided to change his playing style.

No longer playing an offensive style.

But like the Australia team, playing a defensive one.

But defense was not their true goal.

It was to use defense as an offense!

After Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro finished discussing, they served directly.

Yukimura Seiichi was seen serving.

"Bang!"

But he didn't hit a fast ball.

It was a lob.

Serving with a lob is also known as an opportunity ball.

It is generally a bait ball used to induce the opponent to change their style.

It can reveal the opponent's flaws to some extent.

John saw it at a glance.

Even though it was already the last ball.

He didn't fall for it at all; he aimed at the tennis ball and hit an upward strike!

"Bang!"

Returning a lob with a lob.

They wouldn't make any unnecessary attacks.

This was the last ball, so they just had to stick to their style until the end.

The tennis ball crossed the net; this height was the best attacking position for Sanada Genichiro.

He could also hit a Black Dragon Single-Slash.

But just at this moment, Sanada Genichiro suddenly changed the position of his racket.

"Swift as the Forest!"

He was seen cutting into the tennis ball lightly!

"Bang!"

John and Chris were both stunned!

They didn't expect Sanada Genichiro to hit a drop shot!

But they were still in the middle of the court and at the baseline position.

Seeing this, the two immediately ran toward the net.

Immediately, John continued to hit a lob.

"Bang!"

They thought Sanada Genichiro would launch an offensive and hit a Black Dragon Single-Slash.

But he didn't; Yukimura Seiichi came over and hit another lob.

Everyone was stunned.

"Another lob?"

However, they soon realized what Yukimura Seiichi was trying to do.

He wanted to use defense to counter the Australia team, who had the strongest defense.

John and Chris were primarily defensive players; they were not good at attacking.

Every time they scored, it was by hitting a counter-attack after defending against Sanada Genichiro's Black Dragon Double-Slash.

They hadn't hit a single active attacking shot.

But Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro were not like that.

They were players who combined offense and defense.

Their offensive was actually even stronger.

It was precisely because Sanada Genichiro's offensive was very strong.

That John and Chris had to guard against Sanada Genichiro's sudden explosive attacks.

This was their goal.

As long as the Australia team relaxed even a little.

Sanada Genichiro would immediately launch an offensive to completely pierce through this wall of copper and iron!

John and Chris also reacted.

"Interesting, bring it on!"

Immediately, this lob pulling battle lasted for 15 minutes.

Both sides' nerves were constantly on edge.

The Australia team side was constantly guarding against the Japan team's sudden explosive offensive.

Seeking flowers 0

And Yukimura Seiichi was the same.

Although John said they would stick to their defensive style, who knew.

Based on this factor, both sides' nerves were highly concentrated.

Subsequently, this pulling battle continued to extend!

30 minutes!

They had been playing the lob pulling battle for 30 minutes.

The audience was almost tired of shouting, and even felt a bit bored.

But they didn't want to miss the moment the Australia team won the match.

Atobe Keigo also made a sarcastic remark.

"It's been 30 minutes, what are these guys doing?"

Immediately, he burst into loud laughter!

"Hahahaha!"

The entire stadium's attention was immediately drawn to him.

Following that, he made a sarcastic remark.

"What kind of match is this?"

"A match carrying national honor?"

"How can you win a match by only defending?"

"Ridiculous!"

Seeing this, Chris felt a tremor in his heart.

He shouted angrily.

"I will never allow anyone to mock the Captain's playing style!"

Immediately, he hit another lob!

And at this moment, Yukimura Seiichi shouted.

"Sanada, now!"

Sanada Genichiro responded immediately!

"Oh! I've been waiting for this!"

Immediately, he erupted with a black aura surrounding his body!

Seeing this, John hurriedly warned Chris.

"Chris, get ready!"

"They are going to attack!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sanada Genichiro shouted loudly.

"Black Dragon Single-Slash!"

Immediately, he swung his racket violently!

"Bang!"

And the black aura on his body directly enveloped the tennis ball that was hit!

The tennis ball flew over the net toward John's direction in an instant!

Seeing this, John shouted loudly.

"Chris! It's coming!"

Chris also responded.

"Okay!"

Immediately, John swung his racket violently at the incoming tennis ball!

Seeing this, Sanada Genichiro immediately swung his racket!

The next instant, the tennis ball that was about to be hit suddenly refracted to the left!

At this moment, Chris jumped over!

"It's useless!"

"Your Black Dragon Double-Slash has already been sealed by us!"

"Don't even think about breaking through our wall of copper and iron!"

He swung his racket rapidly!

Seeing this, Sanada Genichiro seized the opportunity and immediately swung his racket.

"Black Dragon Double-Slash!"

The next instant, the tennis ball refracted again.

Seeing this, Chris immediately changed the direction of his racket and returned it with both hands with great force!

"It's useless!"

"Under our wall of copper and iron, your refraction trajectory is clearly seen by us!"

Immediately, his racket slammed into the incoming tennis ball with full force.

"Bang!"

And just at the moment the tennis ball touched the racket.

Chris felt as if his hand had lost consciousness.

The next instant, the racket in his hand was directly knocked away by the powerful impact of the tennis ball!

Seeing this, the umpire immediately called the score.

"40:15!"

The whole stadium was shocked!

What is going on?!

They clearly received it, so how could it be knocked away?

This ball shouldn't have happened!

Seeing this, John hurriedly asked.

"Chris, what's wrong?"

Chris looked at his trembling hand and said in disbelief.

"I... I've lost my sense of touch!"

The Yips?!

John instantly realized that the situation was looking bad.

And this was Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro's true plan.

They weren't trying to find a flaw by using defense as offense at all.

But to make one of the Australia team members lose one of their five senses.

Seeing the situation on Chris's side, Yukimura Seiichi was certain that Chris had lost his sense of touch.

Seeing this, he said to Sanada Genichiro.

"It's done, let's go all out next!"

Sanada Genichiro nodded.

"Yeah, let's take the match in one go!"

If it were the previous Chris, it would have been impossible to make him lose his sense of touch.

But under such a high-tension situation, and having played for 30 minutes.

A situation that tested patience so much.

Plus the fact that they had realized "turning defense into offense would reveal flaws."

This sentence had been circling in their minds.

It was a form of psychological suggestion.

Once the thought of attacking arose, the situation changed.

This was the best time to make someone suffer from the Yips.

And this was the trap Yukimura Seiichi had laid!

However, it was a pity that he couldn't strip away all of Chris's five senses.

In this regard, he also respected Chris.

But it was enough that Chris had lost his sense of touch!

As long as he couldn't recover within this match, then this match was guaranteed to be won!

Because one person cannot return Sanada Genichiro's Black Dragon Double-Slash!

Sure enough, the following situation was exactly as Yukimura Seiichi had expected.

As long as Sanada Genichiro hit the Black Dragon Double-Slash, Chris's racket would be knocked away.

Completely unable to counter!

In the end, they won six games in a row!

As the tennis ball fell, the umpire gave the judgment!
