Chapter 193: The Second Other Dimension
On the side, Bismarck watched Q. P, who was radiating a dazzling light like an incandescent lamp, and a trace of wariness appeared in his eyes.
Originally, Bismarck was somewhat unconvinced that Q. P was the No. 2 of the team, because his own strength was equally formidable.
But with Q. P now enveloped by three rays of brilliance on the court, the astonishing aura he was emitting forced Bismarck to concede defeat.
Bismarck spoke in a low voice: "Facing Q. P in his Ultimate Quality, I fear only Borg could defeat him now."
"In this match, Takahashi is bound to lose."
On the court.
Takahashi glanced at the tennis racket that had been knocked to the ground, his gaze becoming solemn.
Q. P, with all three rays of brilliance fully prepared, was indeed making things very difficult for him.
As soon as these three rays of light appeared, Takahashi felt that all the Spirit Power he had been using on Q. P to disrupt his spatial perception had vanished.
Moreover, the aura Q. P himself was emitting had become increasingly powerful.
It is likely that his Spirit Power has increased geometrically, which is why Takahashi's mental special move has failed.
Because regardless of the type of mental attack, the mental strength between the attacker and the target cannot differ too greatly.
If the target's Spirit Power has been significantly increased, then even if the mental attack used by the attacker is exquisite and subtle, it will dissipate in the face of the target's powerful Spirit Power.
It is not just Spirit Power; even Q. P's strength is rapidly improving.
Because of Q. P's previous series of ultra-high-speed Serves, even Takahashi had not been able to track the trajectory of the tennis ball.
Therefore, Takahashi changed his approach; just now, when Q. P was serving, he seized the opportunity to release the attack of his own Other-Dimensional phantom—Taotie—at the very moment Q. P swung his racket.
Just now, Takahashi had only utilized the aura from Taotie to counter the pressure brought by the Light of Restraint, without directly having Taotie launch an attack.
So Takahashi hoped to use a sudden, violent attack to disrupt Q. P's focus and catch him off guard.
After all, Takahashi intuitively felt that with Taotie's power, it was still a bit weak to fully counter this dazzling white light synthesized from the three rays of Peerless Perfection.
Thus, he could only attack by surprise, disrupting the moment of his Serve as much as possible.
But even though Q. P, wrapped in the three rays of brilliance, was slightly affected, Takahashi still could not return that Serve at all.
The power contained within the tennis ball made it impossible for Takahashi to contend with it, and in an instant, his racket was knocked to the ground by this force as heavy as a thousand catties.
"Sigh!"
Takahashi let out a sigh.
What kind of luck is this!
He really has locked horns with the brilliance of Peerless Perfection.
Starting from Echizen Ryoma, to Toyama Kintaro a while back, they all unlocked the limits of Peerless Perfection during their matches against him.
Now this Q. P seems to have fused the three rays of Peerless Perfection into one during his match against him, and his strength is even a bit stronger than Takahashi's after fully unleashing Taotie.
Since that is the case, his own trump card will have to be revealed ahead of schedule.
Japan Team rest area.
Byodoin Houou watched Q. P, who was shining like a spotlight, and his mood was extremely heavy.
Because he put himself in Takahashi's position and realized that he would also have had no way to deal with those few shots just now.
Unless he could pay a huge price to evolve once more, he could only watch helplessly as his opponent scored.
To think that the D Country Team's No. 2 would be so difficult to deal with!
Coach Mifune suddenly spoke up: "I have observed Takahashi for so long, and I have never seen such a passionate expression on his face."
Oni followed Mifune's direction and also shifted his gaze to Takahashi's face.
"His fighting spirit has been ignited."
Irie said in a deep voice: "Takahashi has always been constantly improving and growing in his matches against others; it's no wonder he has this expression now that he's being treated as an experience pack by his opponent."
Coach Mifune continued: "For someone who has always been lazy to become so serious and passionate, it seems the following match will be even more spectacular."
Irie said with some surprise: "Coach, do you think Takahashi still has a hidden hand?"
Mifune pondered for a moment and said: "I am not sure either, but perhaps from this match, I can see where Takahashi's limits truly lie."
Q. P, dazzling like an incandescent lamp, served again.
The toss, the arm lift, and the swing were all perfectly executed.
Huh? Did Takahashi not use the instantaneous attack brought by his Other-Dimensional phantom to disrupt his Serve again?
Has he given up?
Has he admitted that he is bound to fail?
After all, with all three rays of brilliance prepared, he, having evolved to Ultimate Quality, is truly nearly invincible.
Except for not being able to beat Borg, the current Q. P feels that he can truly dominate this world tennis tournament.
At this moment, a strong gust of Wind whistled past Q. P's ear.
"Thud!"
"40-15!"
"Japan Team scores!"
Hearing the referee's announcement, Q. P finally pulled back his focus.
Takahashi scored just now? How did he do it?
In the corner of the baseline on the right side, a ball mark with a color so deep it was almost black had appeared.
Q. P's pupils shrank violently; even he had not reacted in time to that shot just now.
If not for this ball mark, Q. P would not have dared to believe that the tennis ball had already landed within his half of the court.
How could a middle school student suddenly erupt with such powerful strength?
At this moment, Q. P shifted his gaze back to Takahashi.
He was surprised to discover that a massive figure had appeared behind Takahashi.
Is it the Asura Divine Path again?
A second Other-Dimensional phantom?
How could one person possibly possess two Other-Dimensional phantoms at the same time?
Filled with various doubts, Q. P continued to observe the giant phantom behind Takahashi.
That figure stood three meters tall; unlike the monster shape that had just appeared, this figure was humanoid.
Carefully sensing the aura brought by this figure, Q. P discovered that it did not bring the cold, dark feeling that the previous monster had.
This figure also did not seem as terrifying or powerful as that monster just now!
But why, after this figure appeared, was Takahashi actually able to successfully return his Serve, while he himself could not keep up with the opponent's speed?
Carrying his doubts, Q. P continued to observe.
The more he observed, the more he felt this figure looked somewhat familiar, and when he carefully examined the figure's face.
He was shocked to discover that this figure was exactly an enlarged version of Takahashi Yanichi.
……
"Is this Takahashi's second Other-Dimension?"
"Can a person have two Other-Dimensions?"
Irie was stunned.
Oni nodded and said, "Yes. This figure truly and definitely radiates the aura of the Asura Divine Path."
"Since that Q. P on the opposite side can be enveloped by three rays of light simultaneously, it is no surprise that Takahashi has two Other-Dimensions!"
Byodoin pondered and said, "I know that Other-Dimensional special moves can evolve, but this is the first time I have seen one person manifest two Other-Dimensions."
Coach Mifune spoke with a smile, "No matter how incredible it is, it has happened nonetheless."
"Takahashi is simply a person who excels at miracles!"
Irie said, "I remember Takahashi's first Other-Dimensional phantom was Taotie, right!"
"Why, for his second Other-Dimensional phantom, did he not choose a similar mythical beast, but instead chose himself?"
Could Takahashi really be such a narcissistic person!
After thinking about it, Irie did not say the last sentence out loud.
Mifune said, "Although I don't quite understand Takahashi's thinking, this Other-Dimensional phantom is even more powerful than that Taotie from just now."
"Once this phantom appeared, Takahashi was able to successfully receive Q. P's Serve, and his return speed was so fast that even Q. P could not react in time."
"Or perhaps, Takahashi feels his own strength is powerful enough! Without needing to rely on external things, just by relying on himself, he can also achieve the final victory."
"This kind of dominance, this kind of self-confidence, I really like it!"
"Hahaha!"
