Chapter 563: Sixty Percent Ma He Serve!

Official matches are different from exhibition matches.

Official matches are almost always contests where everyone gives their all.

Except for some teams that are already very strong; they will hide their true main players until the end.

And weaker teams will naturally send out their strongest to proceed to showdown.

The Japanese team faced Greece in the group stage.

On the night before the match began, Shuji Tanegashima finally arrived at the venue by boat.

He hated flying... well, to be accurate, he just didn't want to fly; he valued his life.

So it took a very long time to reach Australia.

Arriving with him were the middle school students who had been eliminated from the training camp.

They were Kaoru Kaidoh, Eiji Kikumaru, Takeshi Momoshiro, and Takashi Kawamura.

Satoru Akiyama and others also told Shuji Tanegashima, who had just arrived, the specific details of the exhibition match.

"We got completely crushed."

"However, Shuji, your Eradication might be able to counter Pock's Whirlpool Baptism."

Shuji Tanegashima did not appear very excited.

Instead, he sighed.

"Being able to return it doesn't mean we can win."

"You only know after you fight."

This statement was indeed true, and Kamishiro Aki agreed with it as well.

Shuji Tanegashima truly had the demeanor of a strong person; not arrogant, but humble.

The next day, at the World Cup venue.

The Japanese team arrived at the venue early.

"In ten minutes, the first match of Group B in the group stage will begin."

"Greece will face Japan!"

As the broadcast sounded, the competing Japanese players entered the court.

Equalyuan did not send Kamishiro Aki this time either.

According to Coach Heibu's thinking, Kamishiro Aki should be placed at least in the middle-to-late part of the lineup.

In any case, it was impossible to place him in the group stage matches.

For this match against Greece, Equalyuan sent out the following seven people.

Shuji Tanegashima, Kazuya Tokugawa, Gakuto Ochi, Atsuki Tono, Zangonji Shiraishi, Akaya Kirihara, and Shuichiro Oishi!

Regarding the selection of the people above, Shuichiro Oishi thought it was reasonable.

But he did not know why Equalyuan made him play such an important first match.

But overthinking it was meaningless; just play!

Although he thought this, during the match, he was completely unable to concentrate.

So he never found his form.

Moreover, his previous national-level skills were completely useless against the opposing Greek team.

After all, the opponents were world-class match players.

Gakuto Ochi, who was his partner, did not say anything; he just watched Shuichiro Oishi's every move from the side.

But because he watched like that, Shuichiro Oishi became even more nervous.

Every time Shuichiro Oishi made an error, he would apologize once.

········ Begging for flowers 0 ··

"I'm sorry!"

"Gomen, I'm sorry!"

Gakuto Ochi did not speak.

Seeing this, Shuichiro Oishi became even more nervous and gradually lost confidence.

Finally, the first game ended.

"This game is won by the Greek team!"

"1:0!"

"The second game begins, Japan's Gakuto Ochi to serve!"

It was Gakuto Ochi's turn to serve.

........ 0

At this moment, Equalyuan Phoenix looked at Gakuto Ochi and said to Kamishiro Aki beside him.

"Kamishiro Aki, have you ever seen a true Ma He serve?"

Kamishiro Aki shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, Equalyuan Phoenix said with a proud expression.

"Next, Gakuto will display his sixty percent Ma He serve."
