Prince of Tennis: Advent of Hyotei!

Chapter 231 Atobe vs. Sanada

"Ah."

Feeling that Sanada had no intention of blaming him, Akaya relaxed and his body went limp.

He just leaned on Sanada's shoulder and fell into a deep sleep.

"Overconsumption."

Sanada murmured, personally taking Akaya to a chair in the stands and placing him there.

Then he turned to look at the jackal Kuwabara and ordered, "Keep a close eye on him."

After a while, the live broadcast sounded.

"The next thing to go is the singles match for two."

"Please both players come on stage after five minutes of warm-up."

The names of the two opposing teams immediately appeared on the big screen at the scene.

【Atobe Keigo VS Sanada Genichirō】

After settling Akaya, Sanada turned and left, heading for the warm-up venue.

At this time, Onobe, also holding a racket in one hand and putting his hands in his pockets, walked towards the warm-up court.

Watching the two people leave, everyone started a new round of discussion.

"One is known as the emperor, the absolute trump card of Rikkai University."

"One is worshipped as the emperor, the spiritual leader of the Ice Emperor."

"It's really a game that people are looking forward to!"

Shiraishi Kuranosuke, who also holds the ministerial level, pays special attention to the confrontation between the two.

"Brother Chitose, who do you think will win?"

Kintaro looked up at Chitose Chisato beside him.

"If it was Atobe before this year, I would say without hesitation that Sanada would win."

"But now it's hard to judge."

Qiansui made a simple comparison in his mind, but couldn't come to a conclusion.

"Tezuka, what do you think?"

Fuji, on his part, also asked curiously.

"It depends on how you perform."

The simple answer is that it is impossible to give an accurate answer.

After all, these two people are at the top national level.

Whether it is Atobe or Sanada, the level they can reach now is not easy.

If it were him, it would be hard to say if he didn't do it perfectly.

"That guy should know the answer, right?"

Longma said suddenly.

At this moment, everyone noticed that his eyes were looking at Ye Shifeng.

When I thought about this, it suddenly made sense.

If there is anyone who best understands the strength of both sides and can make accurate judgments, it must be Ye Shifeng.

"Brother, do you think Atobe-nii will win?"

"I feel like that serious guy across from me is pretty powerful."

Naturally, Rimi heard the discussions around her and knew that they wanted to ask, but they didn't dare to open their mouths.

Ye Shifeng must have heard it, but if no one asked, he would not say it on his own initiative.

Therefore, as the younger sister, Satomi became the best person to ask questions.

"If Atobe could develop his vision to a higher level at the last moment."

"The winner will be his."

Ye Shifeng gave this answer.

"What if it doesn't work?"

Although it seemed stupid to ask this question, Rimi still asked further questions on behalf of everyone else.

Moreover, she was also very curious, would she really lose?

"Then you lose."

Ye Shifeng's answer was very straightforward and he did not hide anything.

He was well aware of the strength that Atobe had accumulated and grown so far.

He was also very clear about Sanada's true level.

Even if the Ice World can break Sanada's Wind, Forest, and Fire Mountain, what will happen after the hidden Yin and Thunder are activated?

Can Atobe further see through Sanada and launch a corresponding counterattack?

If you can't do it, there is only one result: failure.

Is it to further break through myself, or to taste the taste of failure here.

Ye Shifeng is also looking forward to what Atobe will experience.

After a while, both sides who had been warming up returned to their positions.

"Sanada."

"Ah."

Before going on stage, Yukimura called out softly.

The two looked at each other, and Sanada naturally knew what Yukimura was going to say.

Both of them understood each other tacitly and finally nodded to accept the information.

After clenching the racket in his hand, Sanada slowly stepped onto the court.

Atobe also looked at Ye Shifeng, and finally asked: "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

Ye Shifeng shook his head slightly and said calmly: "Go and feel it for yourself."

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled.

“Emperor!! Emperor!!”

"..."

"Emperor!! Emperor!!"

"..."

Both sides were cheerleaders, shouting hard at this moment.

This game will be the focus of the entire game and also the key to victory or defeat.

Whoever can take it first will gain a huge lead.

The two stood face to face at the center net, staring into each other's eyes.

Soon, the shouting from Rikkai University stopped first.

"Snapped!"

Atobe raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the cheering from Hyotei came to an abrupt end.

And he smiled and said confidently: "The winner belongs to me!"

Facing such an arrogant Atobe, a bright light flashed in Sanada's eyes hidden under the brim of his black hat.

"You're still the same old, flashy."

As soon as these words were spoken, the tit-for-tat atmosphere instantly dissipated.

As the atmosphere froze, everyone held their breath, waiting for the game to begin.

Guess who ends first.

In the end, Atobe served first.

Ta-ta-ta, tap-ta.

Atobe glanced ahead and saw that Sanada was standing slightly to the outside.

He had planned for this. While throwing the ball up, he bent backwards, almost completely bending his body to a rather exaggerated degree.

It is even more rapid at the moment of bouncing up.

“Aaaaa——ha!!”

With a muffled groan, Atobe hit the ball with all his might.

"boom!!"

It was like a stream of light that slashed out and, as it fell, its rotation reached its extreme.

It barely bounced on the ground, and it passed like a track, cutting a vertical line on the grass.

The iconic Tannhauser serve!

It is a high-speed slice serve that combines speed and spin!

"Sa——"

"ACE, 15-0!"

The first goal was scored directly.

Sanada only moved halfway and did not fully exert his strength.

Even so, seeing the trajectory of the ball, he began to think slightly.

It is not so easy to realize this technique of Atobe.

In order to return a serve of this magnitude, one must find the right moment to pick the ball up from the ground.

Soon, the second goal arrived.

At the same speed and trajectory, Sanada kicked hard.

"Snapped!"

One second before the ball goes out of the baseline, use the moment when your waist quickly sinks and your arms suddenly lift from back to front!

Like catching the moon from the bottom of the sea, quickly pick the ball up!

"Got it!"

Everyone in Lihai was delighted.

Everyone in Bingdi was shocked.

"but……"

The next moment, Tobe jumped up from the ground in the midfield, stretched his body in the air, and opened and closed his arms!

"Haha!"

"Boom!!"

The powerful smash was like a gust of wind, extremely fierce and powerful.

"30-0!"

The consecutive scores boosted the morale of the Ice Emperor.

"The winner is Atobe...and the loser is Sanada!"

"The winner is Atobe...and the loser is Sanada!"

"..."

The shouts add to the atmosphere of the moment.

After Jibu landed on the ground, he looked ahead with a provocative expression.

Sanada snorted and ignored it.

The game between the two sides continues, and the third serve comes!

However, this time, Sanada's control was much better than before, and the height he raised was no longer uncontrollable.

However, he was still quickly killed by Tobe at the net and completed a smash.

But there is enough time to catch up with this ball.

Just before the tennis ball was about to hit the ground for the second time, Sanada hit the ball back hard from the backcourt, almost approaching the stands.

"Da Da Da...Russle~"

A short, flat and fast lob at the net easily ended the point.

"40-0!"

Atobe scored again.

"Is this true? Sanada is actually getting the upper hand?"

The green bubbles that blew out of Marui Bunta's mouth burst instantly at this moment.

It is hard to imagine what I am seeing.

"Has Hyotei's Atobe been able to achieve this level?"

The jackal Kuwahara also shook his head in doubt.

"This is the first time I've seen Sanada being in a passive position right after he came on the court."

Niou was also confused by this.

Back at the baseline, there was no change in expression on Sanada's face.

But his eyes seemed even more determined.

Atobe sent the ball out again, still using the same tactics, with no intention of changing.

However, Sanada's pace was faster than before.

After receiving the ball, he did not wait there.

This time, he lowered the height of the upward move even lower.

Even Tsuchiya's smash lost its original pressure.

With a sliding step forward, Sanada slashed down easily.

It seemed like an ordinary counterattack, but in fact it was an extremely powerful slice completed with the accumulated energy after the muscles exploded extremely.

"Qixu Rulin!"

No matter how strong the rotation and pressure were, they all disappeared at this moment and were completely consumed.

But after Jibu landed on the ground, he turned around and chased after him, swinging his arms backwards while turning around.

Perfectly demonstrate your super strong vision.

Unfortunately, Sanada was not fooled by the move. Instead, he quickly followed up and hit the ball back again.

The tennis ball passed by Atobe's side.

"boom!"

"15-40!"

Seeing this scene, everyone at Rikkai University breathed a sigh of relief.

It feels like the real Sanada is back!

Sanada is able to repel any attack, this is what he should do!

It was clearly the last point of this round, but he was not able to get it directly.

Tsuchiya still felt somewhat dissatisfied.

However, after returning to the baseline, he completely put this emotion aside and served again.

Tannhauser is still as powerful as ever, but Sanada is no longer afraid of this kind of serve.

When he first met Atobe at the opera house and learned that Atobe had developed this technique, Sanada had thought about how to crack it.

However, I never had the chance to fight with Atobe, so I never tried my ideas.

Now, he has made it clear that he is not afraid of this move.

After picking the ball up from the ground with a backhand, he saw that Tobe was already in the air, ready to smash it.

But those sharp eyes were clearly aimed at his hands.

"A waltz towards destruction?"

Sanada already had some guesses in his mind, but he was not afraid. Instead, he rushed forward.

It is to meet this attack head-on and counterattack Atobe.

"boom!!"

The powerful smash seemed to come with a heat wave.

This was obviously an extremely heavy smash with considerable power.

But Sanada still went forward.

"Boom-"

The moment it touched the ball, the racket face was deeply sunken and the string was twisted and deformed, completely suppressed by this force.

Sanada frowned, feeling that this smash was unusual.

Obviously, it was more than twice as heavy as the smash he expected.

"This power..."

He didn't expect that Atobe's improvement would be so great. This ball really surprised him.

But Sanada is not ready to let go yet.

"Give it to me, go back!!"

With a roar, the muscles in his arms burst out with powerful functions.

It was a much lower lob than before, but still good enough for a smash.

The moment his feet touched the ground, he twisted his toes again and jumped up using one leg!

Thump thump thump!!!

The look in Atobe's pupils changed and was extremely brilliant.

It seemed that at this moment, his body was shrouded in a wonderful glare, which was extremely gorgeous.

"Indulge yourself in my beauty!"

"Escape song towards destruction!"

"boom!!"

With a smash, the tennis ball fell to the ground but did not bounce up. Instead, it slid along a track, completing a ground-level smash as fast as the wind!

"Atobe wins this round, 1-0."

When he came to his senses, Sanada was surprised.

It was totally unexpected that Atobe's second smash would end in this way.

Whether it was the first beat or the second beat, Atobe gave him a big surprise.

"It seems that I underestimated you."

"Atobe Keigo."

Sanada's heart has changed, and he realizes that he can no longer look at the Ice Emperor with the same eyes as before.

After the two sides exchanged venues, Sanada took a deep breath.

While holding the tennis ball with his left hand, Sanada's right hand holding the racket also turned slightly at this moment.

The action looked like his whole body formed a straight line, and it was impossible to tell how he was going to shoot.

Noticing this, Atobe frowned, trying to see more deeply into Sanada's thoughts.

next second.

"Sa!!"

"Boom-"

The serve is truly as fast as the wind. You can't see the trajectory of the ball, nor can you see the swing of the racket clearly.

The tennis ball just appeared behind Atobe.

"15-0!"

The referee announced the score.

At this time, many people were also surprised.

"What a fast swing. What's even scarier is that the serve is also very fast. I can't see the path of the ball at all!"

"Is this the strength of Sanada?"

"Amazing! He is worthy of being called the Emperor of Tennis!"

"..."

At this time, Atobe seemed to understand something.

"I see."

In terms of vision alone, he can be said to be the best among the rest.

At that moment just now, he did see Sanada's actions.

However, he was not able to combine the movements received by his eyes with his own judgment at the first time.

Therefore, no response was given.

But Atobe is confident that he can catch the next ball.

Sanada threw the ball up again.

"Sa——"

The completely hidden swing action does a good job of deceiving the eyes.

But Atobe saw through this and quickly took action.

"Ah!!"

At the moment of swinging the racket, the tennis ball that was originally not seen clearly was intercepted in mid-air.

Then, with the same swiftness, he passed through in a straight line.

The two sides suddenly started fighting in the backcourt.

The pace of his footsteps also continued to quicken as he ran back and forth along the baseline in the backcourt.

The tennis ball is like a toy being played with, constantly shuttling back and forth.

Any player who is not strong enough and whose dynamic vision is not strong enough can't help but wonder whether there is a ball on the field.

"So...so strong!"
