Chapter 21 21 Tezuka and Shirazu! First Showdown!

Chapter 21 21. Tezuka and Shirazu! The first showdown!

"If you think there's no reason to fight with me, what now?"

Looking at Tezuka who came back again, Shirazu said bluntly to him.

"Hmm"

Clenching his hands, Tezuka glanced at the seniors who were screaming in pain on the ground, and then walked towards Shirazu.

"Is that the strength of Shirazu Jisei, the deputy director of Teiko Middle School?"

"What a terrible player."

"It is conceivable that they won the regional championship not in vain."

Inui Sadaharu observed all the games from the sidelines. He simply couldn't believe that someone could be so powerful.

His second- and third-year regular players were easily taken down, without any ability to fight back.

But the other party asked Tezuka by name, which puzzled many people.

Only Fuji knows this reason. Now, only Fuji knows that Tezuka has been hiding his strength.

Tezuka could easily defeat his seniors if he wanted to.

"What on earth do you want to do!?"

"Nothing, I just want to have a fight with you."

"I think it would be a pity if I can't meet you in the main match."

Faced with Tezuka's question, Shirazu wiped the sweat from his forehead and spoke bluntly.

"?"

"Let's go to the ballpark next door."

Glancing at the seniors who fell to the ground next to him, Tezuka was stunned for a while and then spoke.

"no problem."

He knew that Tezuka should understand what he meant, and now he wanted to help Tezuka.

The stage has been set, and now it’s time to see how valuable this showdown is.

"Tezuka."

Oishi looked worriedly at Tezuka who put down his schoolbag, took off his coat and was warming up and said.

"It's okay, Dashi. It seems like he won't give up if I don't compete with him today."

Moving his body well to avoid unnecessary injuries, Tezuka took the racket handed over by Fuji and walked into the court.

"Is he really that powerful?"

Kise looked at Tezuka who walked in with curiosity on his face. Shirazu had specifically warned him before.

(How much you can learn from this game depends on your understanding. Maybe you can see a higher level of skills.)

Holding the barbed wire fence with one hand, Kise stared at the game that was about to start in the stadium and thought of what Shirazu said.

"Then I won't be polite."

Although there was no referee, the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not ask for this.

With the level of the two of them, it doesn't matter whether there is a referee or not.

Seeing Tezuka standing indifferent at the baseline, Shiratsu knew that he was going to give up the serve to him first.

Perhaps it was because he had played a few games before, and even if he won easily, he might still be physically exhausted.

"How magnanimous, Tezuka."

"But, I'm serious."

He took the ball out of his pocket, hit it on the ground a few times, and then twisted his wrist to spin the ball the moment it was thrown up.

"This serve?"

"!?"

"This is!?"

Outside the court, Inui Sadaharu, Fuji, and Kise were surprised when they looked at the obvious movement of the wrist.

"Bang!"

The ball was hit, passed the net, landed on the ground, and then bounced up. Tezuka immediately rushed over and swung his racket to try to hit it back.

"Ugh!"

“Ding-deng-deng!!!”

“Zizzizi!!!”

(What a great spin!)

The moment he caught the ball, Tezuka could even hear the sound of the silk thread rubbing against the tennis ball, accompanied by a powerful and heavy feeling.

If you look at it with the naked eye, you will find that the network cable has been distorted and even slightly uneven.

Realizing that he couldn't make a hard hit, Tezuka immediately moved his racket away and gave up the point.

"Crack!"

The ball slipped off the racket, landed on the ground with a strong spin, and rolled out of the ground.

15-0!

“It can actually give the ball that kind of spin when it’s served.”

"In addition to having both strength and rotation, it can even be done"

"When the opponent catches the ball, the friction and sliding of the ball will cause the opponent to be unable to grasp the return point of the racket, and the body will shift, which will make it difficult to exert force."

"Awesome serve."

Fuji and Inui Sadaharu both watched the game carefully.

"What? It turns out there is such a move hidden in it. It has never been used in intra-team competitions."

Kise looked at Shirazu's serve with gleaming eyes and said happily.

"This move is called Rasengan."

"Can you take it?"

Picking up the ball again, Shirazu glanced at Tezuka and said.

As always, he twists his wrist the moment he throws the ball up, and then swings his racket when the ball falls.

"Whoosh!"

This time, Tezuka switched the racket to his left hand.

"Look, why did Tezuka switch his racket to his left hand?"

"Is it possible that he is actually left-handed?"

Compared to Fuji, Oishi, Kikumaru and others did not know the true situation of Tezuka, so they were surprised to see Tezuka change hands to hold the racket.

"drink!"

Swinging the racket with his left hand, he touched the violently rotating tennis ball again, exactly as he felt before.

"Zizzizi!!"

"Um?"

"Look, Tezuka!"

The tennis ball rubbed against the silk thread and twisted, but with Tezuka's stability, it was still unable to break through. Then it began to shift from its original position, like a mouse preparing to sneak away.

But Tezuka had already prepared for it. He directly moved his arm to the place where the tennis ball was offset, trying to maintain balance.

(As expected of you, normally, the racket of most people would be pierced when they received the ball for the first time, but you were able to keep it stable and even make up for it.)

It can only be said that a genius is worthy of being a genius. After just the second ball, Tezuka seemed to have found the trick.

"Bang!"

30-0!

But. Finding the trick is one thing, and whether you can hit it back is another.

Tezuka stared at the tennis ball on the ground, not knowing what he was thinking, and then turned his head to look at Shirazu.

40-0!

1-0!

The next two "Rasengan" serves were still stable, and even though Tezuka intercepted them twice, he still couldn't hit them back.

This time, it was Tezuka's turn to serve.

"Ha!"

The ball flew quickly to the bottom corner, Shirazu stood in position, swung the racket and hit it back.

"Swoosh!"

"Snap!"

"Swoosh!"

"Bang!"

0-15

The two fought back and forth for a few times, and Tezuka seized the opportunity to hit the ball at close range to win the point.

"Not bad."

After losing a point, Shirazu was not discouraged, but became more interested in the next match.

0-30!

15-30!

30-30!

30-40!

1-1!

Even if there was no referee counting, everyone could still remember the current score.

"Great! Tezuka won a game!"

Kikumaru shouted happily at Tezuka's performance.

"Don't be too happy yet, it's the other party's turn to serve again."

"Yeah! How can we break that serve that spins like a top!"

But Inui Sadaharu's words made Kikumaru's heart, which had just been put down, rise again.

(Aren't you going to use it yet?)

Shirazu looked at the calm Tezuka, who didn't seem to have the idea of ​​going all out directly.

He had seen through Tezuka's plan, trying to force his Rasengan without relying on the power of the hammer.

"You underestimate me, Tezuka!!"

"Haha!"

"Bang!!"
