Chapter 62: I really wasn't humble-bragging!
Seeing that Kamishiro Aki was already on the court.
Ootori Choutarou was very expectant.
He had long wanted to have a duel with Kamishiro Aki.
Although he knew that with his strength, he couldn't beat Kamishiro Aki.
But Ootori Choutarou still wanted to compete with Kamishiro Aki.
At this time, the referee shouted.
"First-year Kamishiro Aki versus second-year Ootori Choutarou!"
"Match officially begins!"
"Ootori Choutarou to serve first!" ===== CHAPTER 161 =====
Subsequently, Ootori Choutarou took the tennis ball tossed by Shishido Ryo.
He saw Shishido Ryo say one thing to him.
"Go for it!"
Ootori Choutarou nodded.
Immediately after, he focused his attention on Kamishiro Aki.
Then he laughed.
"Kamishiro, please take care of me."
Hearing this, Kamishiro Aki was slightly stunned.
Afterward, he also replied.
"Senior Ootori, please take care of me."
To be honest, he had been in Hyotei for so long, and he rarely talked to Ootori Choutarou.
Because he was the passive type.
Only when others took the initiative to find him would he pay attention.
And Ootori Choutarou had never come to find him.
That is, when they were practicing returning serves, they were temporarily grouped together.
But it was just returning each other's serves, and they didn't chat much.
But listening to that guy Akutagawa Jirou.
Ootori Choutarou, influenced by him, practiced tennis diligently every day.
He had already increased the success rate of his "One-Ball Soul" heavy cannon serve to one hundred percent within the doubles court!
That is to say, as long as it was his service game.
He was confident that every ball could be successfully hit into the effective area with the "One-Ball Soul" heavy cannon serve.
But it was only the doubles effective service area.
For the singles area, Ootori Choutarou's service success rate was seventy percent.
Thinking of this, Ootori Choutarou couldn't help but feel a bit nervous.
But now was not the time to be nervous.
He saw him toss the tennis ball into the air!
Immediately after, his attention was all focused on the falling tennis ball.
When the tennis ball fell to the most suitable distance.
Ootori Choutarou swung his racket fiercely!
"One-Ball Soul!"
"Boom!"
The tennis ball crossed the net in an instant!
Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki skillfully activated the Sharingan.
Immediately after, he observed that the speed of this heavy cannon serve by Ootori Choutarou reached 196 kilometers per hour!
Not bad, just being influenced by him allowed Ootori Choutarou to increase his ball speed by 5 kilometers per hour.
Although it couldn't compare to Kamishiro Aki's Finger Pistol serve.
Kamishiro Aki's Finger Pistol serve speed range was between 220 kilometers per hour to 260 kilometers per hour!
Not to mention the Lightning-Speed Serve.
But for Ootori Choutarou, it was already considered a very good result.
But the landing point of this ball was not in the singles effective service area.
In the next instant, the tennis ball slammed heavily into the ground.
"Boom!"
The tennis ball indeed landed out of the singles area.
Seeing this, the referee shouted.
"Service fault!"
Seeing that the tennis ball didn't land in the effective service area, Ootori Choutarou scratched his head a bit embarrassedly.
"Embarrassing."
At this time, Kamishiro Aki laughed.
"Senior Ootori, try adding some spin to the tennis ball when you toss it."
"And then accelerate the speed of the racket head."
"And one last point, try imagining your arm as a whip and whipping it out."
Hearing these three suggestions, Ootori Choutarou was slightly stunned.
Is this guiding me!?
Just by looking at it once, he could discover the problem with my serve?
Holding this question, Ootori Choutarou decided to try it.
Even if it was a double fault, it didn't matter.
Because he didn't think he could beat Kamishiro Aki anyway.
He just wanted to play against Kamishiro Aki, and then have the opportunity to observe Kamishiro Aki performing the Finger Pistol serve or Lightning-Speed Serve up close.
But now Kamishiro Aki took the initiative to offer suggestions, which flattered him.
Seeing this, he bowed and thanked him.
"Okay, I'll try it immediately."
Ootori Choutarou was so polite, Kamishiro Aki felt it was strange.
Subsequently, Ootori Choutarou recalled the three elements Kamishiro Aki mentioned.
He conceived it in his mind once.
It should be no problem.
After getting ready, Ootori Choutarou grabbed the tennis ball with two fingers.
When he tossed it into the air, he applied some spin.
Then when the tennis ball fell, he hurriedly adjusted the racket head to aim at the tennis ball's position.
Finally, he imagined his arm as a whip and whipped it out!
"Boom!"
The tennis ball was hit out by the racket in an instant.
At this time, Kamishiro Aki used the Sharingan to observe again.
Good grief!
The ball speed of this one successfully broke through 210 kilometers per hour!
But unfortunately, this ball didn't cross the net.
Seeing this, the referee shouted.
"Double fault!"
"15:0!"
But Ootori Choutarou didn't look sad at all.
He shouted happily directly.
"Wow! So fast!"
"Kamishiro! That ball just now was so fast!"
Afterward, Ootori Choutarou bowed deeply to Kamishiro Aki!
"Thank you!"
Others saw this scene and were all shocked!
Isn't this a match?
How did it become practice guidance!?
And the guidance was correct!
Even Sakaki Taro couldn't sit still.
He hurriedly stood up and asked Kamishiro Aki.
"Kamishiro, how did you figure it out?"
Hearing this, Kamishiro Aki replied.
"Because that’s how I usually hit my Thunder-Speed Serve."
"It’s just that the movement is too fast, and you didn't see it clearly."
"But the breakdown of the motion is roughly like this."
Kamishiro Aki was not lying.
That was indeed how he served his Thunder-Speed Serve.
He simply used Thunder Breathing to accelerate the speed of the Thunder-Speed Serve.
If Kamishiro Aki didn't use the Six Powers or Thunder Breathing.
And relied only on his own strength to hit, he could at least hit a high-speed serve of 190 kilometers per hour.
And at this moment, they were all dumbfounded after hearing Kamishiro Aki's explanation.
What do you mean the movement was too fast and they didn't see it clearly?
Could that even be called "too fast"?
That was simply real thunder speed; it was completely impossible to see!
Seeing the jealous looks everyone was giving him, Kamishiro Aki was a bit speechless.
He was just stating the facts; he really wasn't humble-bragging!
At this moment, Ootori Choutarou appeared by Kamishiro Aki's side, though no one knew when.
It gave Kamishiro Aki a start, and he subconsciously retorted.
"You guy, do you walk without making a sound? You scared me."
Seeing this, Ootori Choutarou hurriedly apologized.
⑦⑥③④⑧〇①⑤⑦
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to."
Immediately after, he said with an excited look on his face.
"Kamishiro, thank you very much for your advice!"
Kamishiro Aki waved his hands hurriedly.
Wasn't Ootori Choutarou's reaction a bit too exaggerated?
He had only given a bit of guidance in passing.
But it was clear that Ootori Choutarou was truly thrilled.
Seeing this, Kamishiro Aki quickly said.
"Then let's continue."
"Use the serving method I just taught you to serve again."
Hearing this, Ootori Choutarou hurried back to his court.
Seeing this scene, Shishido Ryou felt very happy for Ootori Choutarou.
The subsequent match could hardly be called a match anymore.
It had completely turned into a serving exchange session between Kamishiro Aki and Ootori Choutarou.
But Sakaki Tarou did not stop them either.
Because he felt this was a very good growth opportunity for Ootori Choutarou.
At the same time, he felt deeply moved inside.
"Kamishiro Aki, you will definitely reach the pinnacle of the tennis world."
This was a sentiment he felt compelled to express.
Kamishiro Aki did not know what Sakaki Tarou was thinking.
But his match with Ootori Choutarou had finally ended.
The score was 6:2!
Two of those games were won by Ootori Choutarou using the serving method he had taught.
Kamishiro Aki could have returned them.
But he chose not to.
After all, this was no longer a serious match.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that.
Afterwards, Ootori Choutarou was extremely satisfied.
As if he had obtained some kind of supreme treasure.
Seeing this, Atobe Keigo teased Kamishiro Aki.
"Well done, Great Instructor Kamishiro."
Hearing this, Kamishiro Aki rolled his eyes at him.
"Captain Atobe, you are truly humorous."
