Chapter 9: Orange boy Echizen Ryuga, outspin serve
Around afternoon.
A teenager wearing a black sweatshirt and dark green hair walked leisurely into the Sandebook Tennis Center while eating an orange.
“╮( ̄_ ̄)╭”
"What a jerk this old man is! He doesn't have the responsibility of a real man at all."
"I went back to Neon alone, leaving Auntie Lunzi to deal with things like buying a house and taking care of the little one."
"He said the little one was going to Neon soon and asked me to say goodbye."
"Come on! It's not like we're going somewhere we can't go."
He yawned and continued to mutter.
Echizen Ryuga is feeling helpless now.
I have finally gotten over the sadness of leaving Echizen home and moving to my new home.
I just started playing games in the human world not long ago.
As a result, his former adoptive father, Nanjiro Echizen, contacted him for the first time some time ago.
So this scene happened.
But now he doesn't seem to be ready to reunite with Ryoma Echizen.
"I don't know how much the little one has grown now..."
After eating the last slice of orange, Echizen Ryuya adjusted the sunglasses he wore for disguise and looked towards the court where the game was taking place.
at the same time.
boom!
"The match is over! Kitagawa from HERO Tennis Club wins!"
The referee on the podium announced the result loudly.
With the end of this game, the Free State Youth Tennis Tournament has entered the final stage.
"( ̄口 ̄)!! I didn't expect that Asian guy who got in through the backdoor was so strong. He simply crushed us the entire time!"
"So what? Next up, he faces Ryoma Echizen, son of the samurai Nanjiro Echizen. Didn't he also dominate the entire match? If you ask me, the outcome of the four-peat is unchangeable."
"Who knows? This dark horse comes from the HERO Tennis Club, one of the top three tennis clubs in the world. You know, the entry threshold to this tennis club itself is very high!"
"..."
At this moment, the stadium where the final will be held is surrounded by spectators.
Among them were also some reporters and scouts from tennis clubs.
next moment.
"Next, the finals of the Free Country Youth Tennis Tournament are about to begin!"
"Contestant No. 13 Kitagawa vs. Contestant No. 4 Echizen Ryoma."
"Both players, please prepare to enter the arena."
A broadcast sounded in the stadium.
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused.
This also includes the disguised Echizen Ryuga.
"I was not mistaken."
"I hope this time it's not a half-baked little role."
Although he has fought several fierce games, Echizen Ryoma is now full of fighting spirit.
After taking a look at Beichuan not far away.
He walked towards the court with a racket in his hand.
"finally reached......"
After stretching, Beichuan walked slowly to the other side of the court with a warm smile on his face.
Even though he was going to face Ryoma Echizen, who had the aura of a protagonist, his expression did not change at all.
Not long after.
The two of them came to the court one after another.
After saying hello across the net.
"I chose to catch the ball."
Before the referee on the podium could start guessing who would go first, Echizen Ryoma coldly said this.
Then he turned and walked towards the receiving area.
Such a change made even the referee stunned.
"It's getting more and more interesting."
"I just don't know, will the next one be Echizen Ryoma, or Niuma Ko Echizen?"
"Of course, I don't mind speeding up your awakening process."
Looking at Ryoma Echizen not far away, Kitagawa smiled slightly, said nothing more, and walked towards the serving area.
Wait until the two of them are ready.
"Drip drip!"
"Free State Junior Tennis Tournament Finals."
"One game decides the outcome!"
"Kitagawa is serving."
"Game start!"
As the referee's voice fell.
The eyes of the surrounding audience were focused on Beichuan.
"coming!"
Beichuan didn't say much, just tapped the tennis ball a few times.
Immediately throw it high into the air.
Then, he jumped up.
boom!
Accompanied by a crisp collision sound.
The tennis ball pierced through the air in an instant like a cannonball.
It hit the bottom line hard.
It only took a split second to score a point.
ACE!
15-0!
"what?"
Echizen Ryoma's pupils suddenly contracted.
The serve was so quick and concise that he didn't even have time to react.
【I didn't expect the opponent to be so strong! 】
"hiss!!!"
The spectators around the stadium gasped in unison.
Aside from Kitagawa, his opponent is Ryoma Echizen, the son of samurai Nanjiro Echizen, who won the Freedom Country Youth Tennis Championship three times in a row.
The opponent's serving posture alone is textbook-like.
He even displayed such high-speed serve at the age of 12.
It’s incredible!
ta ta ta ......
And this is just the beginning!
Beichuan didn't hesitate at all and served again after the referee announced it.
boom!
In a blink of an eye, another yellow-green color passed across the sky.
It fell heavily at Echizen Ryoma's feet.
"So fast!"
This time, although Ryoma Echizen saw the tennis ball clearly, this shot was even more shocking than the previous one.
Just the most basic serve.
But in the hands of the opponent, it showed a powerful impact.
The key is.
This kind of ball, even if it is an ordinary serve, even if he can see it clearly.
But he was powerless to fight back.
It didn't take long.
Kitagawa won the serve without any surprise.
1-0!
As for Ryoma Echizen.
At this moment, his face had become extremely ugly.
From infancy, his toy was a tennis racket.
When he was young, he received the "Samurai-style super-intense special training" from the samurai Nanjiro Echizen - special training in playing basketball with raw eggs.
He even won the Youth Tennis Championship of the Free State, a tennis powerhouse, at the age of 9.
But despite this experience, he is now suppressed in the serving game.
"call......"
Taking a deep breath, Echizen Ryoma switched from holding the racket with his right hand to holding it with his left hand.
This was the first time in three years that he played with his dominant hand in a game.
It can be seen how much pressure Beichuan is bringing to him at this moment.
next moment.
Ryoma Echizen suddenly threw the tennis ball in his hand into the air to the left.
There was a sharp look in his eyes.
When the ball reached its apex and began to fall, he exploded like a spring, driving his body from his back foot and turning towards the net. The racket cut through the air like a sharp blade, accurately cutting into the side of the ball. His wrist was as steady as a rock at this moment, guiding the racket face to cut the ball and create a strong side spin.
boom!
The ball seemed to be given life the moment it touched the racket, flying towards the opposite court with rotation, leaving a slightly curved trajectory.
After completing the shot, his follow-through was smooth and powerful, further enhancing the side spin effect of the ball.
Finally, he quickly returned to his ready position and waited for his opponent's response. The whole process was done in one go.
Offspin serve!
