Prince of Tennis: The Strongest Ruler
1. Mifune Entrance
In Neon, in the back mountain of the U-17 training camp, in front of a small wooden house, stood a sloppy man wearing black linen, holding a gourd in his hand and reeking of alcohol. This man was the U-17 head coach, Mifune Nyudo.
Mifune Nyudo took a big gulp of wine, but his eyes were fixed on the high school students who were training in the central open space in front of the house.
Bang!
High school students wearing black short-sleeved shirts are practicing tennis on the uneven ground.
Every high school student in training was extremely tired and sweating profusely.
Sweat kept dripping down their cheeks, wetting a large area of the open space beneath them.
Even so, the high school students did not dare to stop training, because they knew that if they stopped training without the order of the head coach, they would receive more severe punishment and might even be expelled from the U-17.
“You rubbish, what are you still dawdling for? Hurry up and finish your training. If anyone doesn’t finish today’s training, you will sleep here tonight.”
Mifune Nyudo’s thunderous roar came over, and the high school students turned around and saw the head coach Mifune staring at them ferociously, and they were frightened.
“Yes! Yes!”
The high school student nodded quickly and immediately sped up his training.
“Alas,” Mifune Nyudo sighed in his heart as he looked at the high school students in front of him, even though these high school students were undergoing hellish training every day.
But because of their low talent and weak strength, even the hellish training did not bring much improvement to them.
Now the overall strength of Neon U-17 is getting worse and worse. There are almost no high school students with superior talents, and they are all high school students with low talents.
Talent determines height, so no matter how hard these high school students train, their strength is still not that strong.
The occurrence of this situation has also caused the ranking of Neon U-17 in the world U-17 to become lower and lower, and in recent years it is almost at the bottom. If no more talented and strong players emerge, Neon U-17 will really be at the bottom if this continues.
Thinking of this, Mifunerudo felt irritated and took another big gulp of wine to reduce his inner irritation.
It is the wish of the older generation such as Mifune Nyudo to make Japanese tennis rise. For example, Coach Ryusaki of Seigaku, Coach Ban Lao of Yamabuki, and the grandmother who taught Kintaro Toyama tennis, they all contribute to the rise of Japanese tennis in different ways.
But judging from the current situation of Neon U-17, let alone rising, as long as they can maintain the current ranking it will be very good, so it is not unreasonable for Mifune Nyudo to be irritable.
“Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!”
The tired voices of the high school students brought Mifune Nyudo back to his senses.
The training of the high school students was almost over, and Mifune Nyudo, who was in a bad mood, no longer wanted to continue training these high school students, so he let them end the training early.
“Alright, you bastards, today’s training is over, go back and rest.”
After Mifunerudo finished speaking, he left.
After the training, the high school students were so exhausted that they all lay on the ground, without the strength to stand.
After all, the hellish training not only destroys the body, but also causes mental and spiritual fatigue.
tread!
After the break, the high school students left slowly, one by one, with difficult and tired steps.
The back hill of U-17 also returned to its former tranquility.
After leaving, Mifune Nyudo did not stay in the back mountain, but walked out of the gate of U-17 and appeared in the woods outside U-17.
Mifune Nyudo walked slowly on the forest path outside U-17, taking a sip of wine from time to time to relieve his irritable mood.
As we were walking, we suddenly heard a loud baby cry from a distance.
Mifunerudo then followed the sound of the baby’s crying.
Soon, a basket containing a baby appeared in front of Mifune Nyudo.

Li Zongzheng is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. He is also the most outstanding tennis talent in the world. At the age of fourteen, he won the World Junior Tennis Open Championship. At the age of sixteen, he completed three consecutive championships in the World Junior Tennis Open.
At the age of seventeen, Li Zongzheng embarked on a professional path and became a professional tennis player, also the youngest professional player in the world.
In the same year, he won the Wimbledon Championships.
Li Zongzheng became the youngest champion in Wimbledon history and the youngest Grand Slam champion in the world.
After winning the Wimbledon Championship, Li Zongzheng’s status in the world tennis arena has skyrocketed and he is the most popular player at the moment.
Many people believe that Li Zongzheng will become the future ruler of world tennis and will dominate the future world tennis.
However, the arrival of a disaster dealt a heavy blow to the high-spirited Li Zong Zheng, and also cast a thick shadow on Li Zong Zheng’s bright future.
One day, Li Zongzheng finished practice and was on his way home when he encountered a serious car accident. The cause of the accident was that the other party was driving under the influence of alcohol.
This serious car accident caused Li Zongzheng to suffer serious injuries to his legs. The serious injuries to his legs forced Li Zongzheng to suspend his beloved tennis career, but even so, he did not give up his beloved tennis.
In order to be able to step onto the tennis court again, for his beloved tennis career, and for his dream of dominating the world tennis, Li Zongzheng immediately began recovery training for his legs shortly after being discharged from the hospital.
Even though Li Zongzheng insisted on doing recovery training every day, the recovery effect of his legs was not ideal. Because his legs were injured too seriously, no amount of recovery training would be of any use.
But even so, Li Zongzheng still insisted on training continuously, day after day, year after year. Even if the results were not ideal, as long as there was a glimmer of hope for recovery, he would persist, because this was for his beloved tennis and for his ideals.
Many people learned that Li Zongzheng would never be able to play tennis again. They all felt sorry for the death of the world’s most outstanding tennis genius, and also condemned the drunk driver.
After all, if it weren’t for him, the world of tennis would have been without one of its most outstanding tennis talents.
Whenever Li Zongzheng saw tennis players playing on TV, his eyes revealed a strong desire. He longed to return to the tennis court, he longed to continue his beloved tennis career, and he longed to play tennis again.
On this day, after finishing training, Li Zongzheng lay down on the bed to rest early. Maybe because he was too tired, Li Zongzheng fell asleep quickly.
Suddenly, a blue light appeared from Li Zong Zheng’s house and illuminated the entire room. However, Li Zong Zheng was unaware of all this because he had fallen asleep. The blue light flashed for a short while and then disappeared, along with the sleeping Li Zong Zheng.
When Li Zongzheng woke up and opened his eyes, he was stunned because he found himself in a forest. What’s even more bizarre is that he had turned into a newborn baby who was abandoned.
At this time, Li Zongzheng also reacted. He had traveled through time, but he didn’t know which world he had traveled to?
Anyway, time travel has already become a fact, so he might as well not think too much about it. After all, there was nothing worth caring about in the previous world. He was an orphan to begin with, and maybe he can still pursue his beloved tennis career in the current world.
Thinking of this, Li Zong Zheng calmed down. Not long after, he began to feel hungry, and there was no food around. In order to survive, Li Zong Zheng had no choice but to cry. Because he was too young to speak, he could only cry, hoping that his crying would be discovered by others.
Not long after, the sound of footsteps was heard, and a sloppy man in black linen appeared in front of Li Zong Zheng. Looking at this sloppy man, Li Zong Zheng had a very familiar feeling, so he calmed down.
And this sloppy man was Mifune Nyudo. Mifune Nyudo, who was taking a walk before, immediately walked over and came to Li Zongzheng’s side after hearing Li Zongzheng’s crying.
After seeing the person coming, Li Zongzhen knew that he could survive, so he smiled happily at the big man and stretched out his two white and tender hands to him.
Li Zongzheng’s appearance touched the tenderness in Mifune Nyudo’s heart, so he picked up Li Zongzheng. At the same time, Mifune Nyudo also knew that this was an abandoned baby, so he felt even more sympathetic towards Li Zongzheng.
Mifune Nyudo said, “Poor little fellow, you will live with me from now on.”
They spoke in Japanese, regardless of whether Li Zongzheng understood it or not.
But Li Zong Zheng definitely understood, because he still retained the consciousness he had before traveling through time, and before traveling through time, Li Zong Zheng also knew many languages, including Neon.
After hearing what Sanchuan Nyudo said, Li Zongzheng smiled happily. Sanchuan Nyudo laughed even louder when he saw this, because he felt that this little guy had a very good relationship with him and he liked him very much. So Sanchuan Nyudo happily carried Li Zongzheng back to his residence.
Mifunerudo quickly adopted Li Zongzheng and named him “Mifune Zongzheng”. Zongzheng officially became Mifunerudo’s adopted son.
3. Start training (old version)
Eight years later, an 8-year-old boy was standing in the open space in front of a cabin, looking at the high school students who were training hard in front of him, his eyes revealing deep excitement and desire.
The high school students in training also got used to the presence of this little boy. After all, they knew that this little boy was the adopted son of the head coach.
That’s right, this little boy is Li Zongzheng, no! Now he should be called Mifune Zongzheng.
“I didn’t expect that I would travel to the world of Prince of Tennis. This is so great!”
Mifune Soumasa was very excited when he thought about traveling to the world of Prince of Tennis. After all, tennis is the mainstream in this world.
Next to the little boy stood a sloppy man, and this sloppy man was Mifune Nyudo.
Mifune Somasa didn’t expect that when he came to this world, the first person he would meet would be the head coach of U-17, Mifune Nyudo, and he would become Mifune Nyudo’s adopted son.
No wonder I had a familiar feeling when I first met Mifune Nyudo.
Before traveling through time, Mifune Soumasa liked to watch anime in his spare time, especially The King of Tennis, so when he first met Mifune Nyudo, he felt a sense of familiarity with him.
Although he was Mifune Nyudo’s adopted son, Mifune Nyudo was very good to him, which made Munemasa feel the fatherly love and family affection from Mifune Nyudo that he had never felt before.
Mifune Soumasa felt very excited at the thought of competing against tennis masters in the world of Prince of Tennis in the future. After all, this is a world where tennis is the mainstream. It would be a very exciting thing if he could dominate the tennis world in this world.
Although Mifune Soumasa is bellicosity and ambitious, he is not an arrogant person. He knows that the goal of dominating the world of tennis is still far away from him. After all, he is only three years old and has not started tennis training yet.
But Mifune Somasa is not worried about his tennis training, after all, his adoptive father is Mifune Nyudo!
Mifune Nyudo is the head coach of the U-17 team! He has a lot of experience in teaching tennis. If I were to be trained by him, I believe my tennis skills would improve rapidly.
Mifune Nyudo watched the high school students training in front of him and yelled at them.
“You rubbish! Why don’t you speed up your training!”
“Everyone, run!”
“After just a little training, is that all you can do? You rubbish!”
Mifune Soumasa has become accustomed to such scenes, and he also understands why Mifune Nyudo is like this, because he knows that Mifune Nyudo’s wish is to make Japanese tennis rise. But Mifune Soumasa, who has read the original Prince of Tennis, knows that the strength of Japanese U-17 is really not that good now. There are no talented and strong players. Only after the people like Byodoin Phoenix join U-17, the strength and status of Japanese U-17 will be improved.
Mifune Soumasa didn’t realize that although Mifune Nyudo was training high school students on the side, he was spending most of his time observing Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Nyudo knew that his adopted son loved tennis very much, which could be seen from his eyes. He also discovered that his adopted son had an extraordinary talent for tennis, extraordinary physical fitness, and extremely sharp observation and reaction abilities, as well as powers beyond ordinary people. All of these would allow Mifune Souji to go very far on the path of tennis.
Maybe it was because of the time travel that Mifune Soumasa had strength far beyond that of ordinary people since he was a child. It can be said that he was born with supernatural powers and infinite strength. At first, Mifune Soumasa was not used to it, and it took him a long time to master his own strength.
These discoveries made Mifune Nyudo very excited, and he wanted to train Mifune Soumasa immediately, but he held back. He wanted to wait for Mifune Soumasa to speak to him in person. After all, Mifune Soumasa had his own ideas.
After dark, the high school students finished their training and went back to rest. Only Mifune Somasa was standing alone in the open space thinking about things. Mifune Nyudo also returned to the cabin.
“It seems that it is time for me to start training in tennis. If I don’t start training, how can I dominate the tennis world in the future?”
After figuring it out, Mifune Somasa turned around and walked into the cabin, came in front of Mifune Nyudo, and solemnly said to Mifune Nyudo, “Old man, please teach me how to play tennis! I want to become a professional player in the future.”
“Haha! Xiao Zongzheng, I’ve been waiting for you to say this for a long time!” Mifune Nyudo said with a happy smile.
“My training is very hard. Can you hold on?” After laughing, Mifune Nyudo said seriously.
“Come on, old man, I can hold on.”
“Okay! Okay! Starting tomorrow, I will teach you how to play tennis. Little Zongzheng, be prepared for the hellish training!”
After saying that, Mifuneru went to rest.
“Yes! Old man!”
Mifune Soumasa was very happy at the thought of being able to train tennis tomorrow, because this would bring him one step closer to his goal. Then Mifune Soumasa went to rest, after all, he had to get up early for training tomorrow.
The next morning, before dawn, Mifune Souma got up and did some warm-up exercises.
After a while, Mifune Nyudo also got up and was pleased to see Mifune So was exercising.
“You’re up so early to exercise, that’s good!”
“Good morning, old man!” Mifune Somasa also saw Mifune Rudao.
“You continue to exercise. I’ll go wake those kids up first.”
After saying that, Mifune Nyudo walked to where the high school students were resting.

4. System Activation (Old Version)
“You bunch of little brats! Get up! Go and train!”
After hearing Mifune Nyudo’s roar, the high school students quickly got up and ran out to train.
“If anyone hasn’t finished the morning training, don’t even think about having breakfast! Do you hear me?”
The high school students nodded quickly and agreed.
After saying this, Mifune Nyudo ignored them, left, and returned to Mifune Soumasa, ready to guide him in training.
Mifune Nyuichi originally planned to teach Mifune Soumasa the basic knowledge of tennis first. After all, Mifune Soumasa was a beginner and he was worried that Mifune Soumasa did not understand the rules of tennis. However, he did not expect that Mifune Soumasa not only understood the basic knowledge of tennis, but also understood it very deeply. After all, Mifune Soumasa was a professional tennis player before he traveled through time. This simply shocked Mifune Nyuichi, and also made Mifune Nyuichi very happy.
So, Mifune Nyudo started training Mifune Somasa directly, starting with training Mifune Somasa’s physical fitness.
“You will start by running a thousand meters, and you are not allowed to stop until you finish. Do you hear me?” Mifune Nyudo was very strict during training, and this was a fact recognized by all U-17 players.
“yes!”
Trample! Trample! Trample!
Mifune Munemasa started his 1,000-meter run.
“Hoo! Hoo!”
After running, Mifune Somasa was out of breath, but Mifune Nyudo did not let him rest. After all, this was a hellish training.
“Next, swing the racket 300 times with each hand.”
Mifune Somasa quickly picked up the lead racket and swung it vigorously.
call!
Mifune Somasa swung the racket vigorously, and the heavy blow caused the air to surge.
Mifunerudo sat aside and watched, occasionally picking up the gourd and taking a sip of wine.
Seeing that Mifune Soumasa’s swing was slowing down, he urged him loudly.
“Hurry up! You are so slow, how long will it take you to finish practicing?”
When Mifune Sosho heard Mifune Nyudo’s roar, he immediately increased the speed of his swing.
After an unknown amount of time, Mifune Soumasa finally completed today’s racket swing training. After finishing, Mifune Soumasa felt a pain in his hands, as if his hands did not exist.
“Why, you can’t bear this little bit of training?”
Mifune Nyudo walked up to Mifune Somasa and said.
“Old man, how could I not bear it? Just come whatever you want!”
Mifune Somasa looked at Mifune Nyudo and said with extra firmness.
“Great! Come with me!”
Mifune Nyudo praised, then turned and left, followed by Mifune Somasa.
After walking for a while, they came to the foot of a high cliff.
“This is the cliff of the heart, and your next training is to climb up from here. It will end when you finish climbing.”
“I’ll be waiting for you up there, don’t keep me waiting too long! Also, don’t die.”
After saying this, Mifune Nyudo left, leaving Mifune Somasa alone.
Mifune Soumasa didn’t say anything. He grabbed the protruding part of the cliff with his hands and started climbing directly.
After a long time, Mifune Soumasa had climbed to a very high place. He held on to the stone wall with both hands and looked at the bottomless sky below. Mifune Soumasa didn’t know how long it would take to reach the destination.
Mifune Soumasa was extremely tired because the heavy training volume had put a huge challenge on both his body and mind.
I started to feel a little dazed and couldn’t climb anymore. I almost couldn’t hold on any longer.
Just when Mifune Soumasa was about to give up, he suddenly remembered himself before he traveled through time.
I was injured so badly at that time, but I didn’t give up. What does this matter now?
“No! I can’t give up. If I give up, how can I dominate the tennis world?”
So, Mifune Somasa cheered himself up and continued climbing.
Just as Mifune So was about to continue climbing, an electronic sound rang in his mind.
“Congratulations to the host for realizing the heart of domination. The strongest domination system is at your service.”
Mifune Sosho was startled and asked
“Who are you?”
“Host, hello! I am the strongest master system”
Upon hearing this, Mifune Soumasa was very happy, because this was a must-have golden finger for time travelers, and he never expected that he would also have it.
Soon, Mifune Soumasa calmed down, because he had experienced time travel before, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
“System, introduce yourself!”
“Okay, host. This system is called the Strongest Domination System. As the name suggests, it helps the host become the strongest tennis master. The host can view his own data through the system. At the same time, the system will also give some tasks. The host can get rewards by completing the tasks.”
“Because this is the first time the host is using this system, I will give the host a novice gift pack as a reward. Just say ‘open’ in your mind.”
“System, open my panel.” Mifune Soumasa did not rush to open the novice gift package, but checked his own data first.
“Okay, host!”
The system panel appeared in Mifune Soumasa’s mind.
Host: Mifune Munemasa
Age: 8
Speed: 2
Strength: 10
Stamina: 2
Tips: 1
Spirit: 8
Total of five dimensions: 23
Talent: Natural supernatural power.
Level: Beginner.
Skills: None
Space backpack: a great gift for beginners
Because of his natural supernatural powers and time travel, Mifune Soumasa’s strength and spirit are so high.
“System, open the novice gift pack”
“Congratulations to the host for obtaining the talent: Eye of Domination, Mastery of Basic Tennis”
“Eye of Domination: Can see through all ball skills and copy them, but requires physical fitness”
“Tennis Basics Mastery: Enables the host to master all the basics of tennis”
Then, Mifune Soumasa opened the panel again.
Tips: 2
Total of five dimensions: 24
Talents: Natural power, Eye of Domination (can see through all ball skills and copy them, but requires physical fitness).
Realm: All at competition level.
Skills: Basic tennis skills
Space backpack: No
Mifune Soumasa was quite happy to find that he had advanced from a beginner to a major competition level.
Mifune Soumasa now remembered that he was still in training, so he increased his climbing speed.
Soon, they reached the top of the Cliff of Heart and saw Mifunerudo.
Mifunerudo was relieved to see that Munemasa had come up safely.
“Okay, today’s training ends here, go and rest!”
After saying that, Mifune Somasa followed Mifune Nyudo back to the cabin to rest.

5. The Evil Boy (Old Version)
On the U-17 tennis court No. 1, two figures were engaged in a fierce tennis battle.
One of them is a mature-looking high school student, while the other is a handsome teenager.
The tennis court was filled with high school students watching the game. The intense tennis match left them speechless and shocked.
“This is too scary! Munemasa should still be an elementary school student, but he can actually compete with the No. 1 in the army, Ishida Nakagawa!”
That’s right, this young man is Mifune Soumasa. Three years have passed since he started receiving Mifune Nyudo training, and the little boy back then has grown into a handsome young man today. The black hair, bright eyes and delicate facial features combined together make Mifune Soumasa today very handsome.
Mifune Nyudo’s hellish training had ended three months ago. He believed that what Mifune Soumasa lacked now was only competition experience.
So Mifune Nyudo set a goal for Mifune Soumasa, asking him to break through the U-17 within three months, starting from court number 16 and fighting all the way up until he defeated the No. 1 team in the first army. This was also the task given to Mifune Soumasa by the system.
If other people knew about the goal that Mifune Nyudo set for Mifune Somasa, they would definitely say that Mifune Nyudo was heartbroken and crazy. After all, Mifune Somasa is still an elementary school student. You let an elementary school student fight against a bunch of high school students. Isn’t that insane?
Although Mifune Soumasa is still an elementary school student now, Mifune Nyudo is not worried about Mifune Soumasa’s strength, because when he was training Mifune Soumasa, he was shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s talent and the speed at which his strength improved, leaving him speechless.
What he taught him, he was able to master it after reading it once, which shocked Mifune Nyudo. What surprised Mifune Nyudo even more was the speed of his improvement. Have you ever seen an elementary school student who is only eleven years old but has reached world-class strength? That’s right, now Mifune Soumasa’s strength has reached world-class, and the speed of his improvement is like a rocket taking off.
Now the strongest player of U-17, the No.1 of the first team, Ishida Nakagawa, has just reached the world level not long ago. Ishida Nakagawa can be said to be a very talented player, but even so, Ishida Nakagawa did not enter the world level until he was in his third year of high school. By comparison, you can see how terrifying Mifune Soumasa’s talent is. Therefore, Mifune Nyudo feels that his adopted son can be said to be the most outstanding genius in the world. He is very happy about this because he sees hope for Japanese tennis.
The strongest player of U-17 now, Ishida Nakagawa, is as world-class as Mifune Soumasa. Therefore, Mifune Nyudo is not worried about Mifune Soumasa’s strength. He believes that Mifune Soumasa will achieve this goal.
“Go back! Thunder Axe!!!”
Mifune Soumasa roared and used his own skills on the flying tennis ball, Thunder Axe, which was a move he created based on the black axe of Onijujiro in the original work. Its power was comparable to that of the black axe, or even slightly stronger.
I saw Mifune Soumasa hitting the tennis ball hard with the racket in his hand. The racket flashed a purple-blue light and was also accompanied by lightning.
Swish!
The tennis ball flashed and turned into a purple-blue light with lightning, penetrating the entire court.
boom!
The roar was heard, the entire tennis court trembled, the air waves surged, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Ishida Nakagawa.
Ishida Nakagawa looked at the flying tennis ball and felt the horror of it, so he gripped the racket tightly with both hands and caught the flying tennis ball.
But soon, Ishida Nakagawa’s face changed, and he found that he could not fight back, and was even about to be unable to resist, because the power contained in this ball was too terrifying.
Ishida Nakagawa’s racket was hit directly away.
boom
There was a loud roar, stone chips flew, and on the wall behind Ishida Nakagawa, there was a charred, smoking tennis ball embedded in it.
“Gulu”
Ishida Nakagawa and the people around him swallowed subconsciously, because this was too horrifying!
“Mifune Somasa scores, the score is 40-0” the referee’s voice made these people come back to their senses.
“That’s too much!”
“How terrible!”
“Is this really tennis?”
……
The high school students who were watching burst into exclamations.
“It’s time to end it,” Mifune Souma thought. He wanted to end the game with this ball, so he prepared to use the ball skill he had just learned not long ago, light hitting-destruction, to end the game.
“You have to be careful with this next move. If you don’t, you will die.”
Ishida Nakagawa was stunned when he heard this. What did that mean? Could it be even more terrifying than the previous one?
The high school students watching were also surprised.
“Could it be that Mifune Soumasa has an even more terrifying trick?”
“I don’t know, but you’ll know when you read on.”
So, the high school students watched attentively.
“It seems that Mifune Munemasa has an even more terrifying killer weapon,” Ishida Nakagawa thought solemnly.
Mifune Somasa walked to the baseline, holding the tennis ball in his hand, looking at Ishida Nakagawa calmly, and said in a cold tone:
“I named this move: Light Strike-Destruction!”
“Light Hit – Destruction? As soon as I heard the name, I knew it was a terrifying skill! As expected of a boy called ‘evil spirit’, he created a terrifying skill so quickly,” Ishida Nakagawa thought.
Light Bat-Destruction was created by the Byodoin Phoenix in the original work, but the Byodoin Phoenix has not been created yet, so the creator became Mifune Munemasa.
The constant challenges in these three months made the name of Mifune Soumasa spread among the U-17. In addition, Mifune Soumasa mastered many football skills at a young age and had great strength, so everyone in the U-17 called Mifune Soumasa a “monster”.
At this time, the tennis ball held in Mifune Souma’s left hand began to light up.
“This is Light Ball-Destruction, how scary!”
The high school students watching said in surprise.
“This is the Light Ball-Destruction, it’s really terrifying!” Feeling the terror emanating from the ball in Mifune Soumasa’s hand, Ishida Nakagawa thought solemnly.
The tennis ball in Mifune Souma’s hand was completely covered by light, as if he was holding a shining sun, emitting endless light.
When the high school students who were watching saw this, they immediately moved away from there, because just by looking at the ball, they knew that its power must be terrifying.
“You’d better be careful, otherwise you will die,” Mifune Soumasa warned.
Then, holding a tennis ball emitting light and a breath of destruction in his left hand, he raised the racket with his right hand.
“Take it! Light Strike-Destruction!!!”
I saw a golden light flying out, and a tennis ball with the light of the sun and the breath of destruction flew straight towards Ishida Nakagawa.
call out!
The whistling sound that cut through the air shook the air and created ripples.
Ishida Nakagawa looked at the flying light ball with a serious expression, feeling the horror of the light ball-destruction.
The tennis ball came rushing towards him with terrifying momentum, but Ishida Nakagawa did not dodge. Instead, he raised the racket with both hands, aimed at the tennis ball, and swung it hard.
A huge force hit Ishida Nakagawa’s racket.
“Ah!” He held it tightly, and the impact force emitted by the light ball hit the wall, causing it to crack and leaving a huge pit.
The fierce wind was raging everywhere, stone chips were flying, and the sky was full of smoke and dust.
Snap!
Mifune Somasa’s Light Hit – Destruction broke Ishida Nakagawa’s racket, splitting the handle and racket in half.
“You’re kidding… You’re kidding…”
Seeing the destroyed wall behind Ishida Nakagawa, the high school students were shocked and speechless.
The entire tennis court seemed to have stopped, silent and quiet.
“The game is over, the score is 7-5, Mifune Souma wins!”
After a while, the referee’s voice sounded, and it also brought the high school students back to their senses.
“No way! Mifune Munemasa actually defeated the No. 1 of the army, Ishida Nakagawa.”
“You’re kidding…you’re kidding!”
The result of the game also surprised the high school students who had come to their senses, and they also had a better understanding of the horror of Mifune Soumasa.
After the match, the two players shook hands. Ishida Nakagawa said to Mifune Munemasa: “I didn’t expect you to be so strong. You are worthy of being called a ‘monster’. You have world-class strength at such a young age.”
“It’s nothing, you are also very powerful,” Mifune Soumasa said humbly with a smile.
Mifune Soumasa on the court and Mifune Soumasa off the court have completely different styles. Mifune Soumasa off the court is humble and gentle, while Mifune Soumasa on the court is domineering.
“Then this badge of No. 1 in the First Army will be handed over to you.”
As he said this, Ishida Nakagawa was about to take off the badge representing No. 1 and hand it over to Mifune Soumasa.
“No, even if you give me this badge now, I don’t have time to lead the team to participate in the expedition.”
Mifune Soumasa refused because he was about to enter junior high school and would not have time to lead the team on an expedition.
“But… this is not against the rules,” Ishida Nakagawa said with embarrassment.
“Xiao Zongzheng, just accept this No.1 badge!”
When Mifune Soumasa was about to refuse again, Mifune Nyudo’s words came from behind him. Mifune Soumasa turned around and saw his old man coming towards him with three coaches.
“Old man, you know I’m going to junior high school soon. How can I have the time to lead an expedition?”
“It’s okay even if you accept it. I agree that you don’t have to lead the expedition.”
“If that’s the case, then I agree to accept this No.1 badge.”
“That’s good. From today on, you are the No.1 of U-17. I hope you can fulfill your No.1 responsibilities seriously.”
“I will, old man,” Mifune Soumasa replied solemnly.
Mifune Nyudo was very pleased with this. He chatted with Mifune Somasa for a while and then left. After all, he still had his own work to do.
The news that Mifune Soumasa had become the No. 1 in the army spread throughout the U-17. Everyone was surprised, but no one objected because they were witnesses of how Mifune Soumasa fought his way from field 16 to the No. 1 in the army. They knew how terrifying Mifune Soumasa’s strength was.
After returning to the resting place, Mifune Souma called out the system panel. Since he had completed the mission of “breaking through U-17”, he wanted to see what the system’s reward was. This system rarely issued missions, and one would know what the reward was only after completing the mission. If it was not completed, there would be no penalty, but the mission would disappear. After all, it was just an auxiliary system.

This reward came very timely, so that Mifune Soumasa could perfect his own dimension and achieve double dimension.
PS: It’s a new book. Collection is the author’s motivation for writing. Please collect it. Please give me everything.
6. Admission to Rikkai University (old version)
After the mission was completed, a new task appeared in the system, and Mifune Soumasa opened the system panel again.
Skill: 5.5
Total of five dimensions: 33
Skills: Mastery of the basics of tennis, jackknife, the three doors of selflessness (the limit of understanding through repeated tempering, the limit of brilliance, and the limit of perfection), domain, light shot-destruction, thunder axe, destruction of the five senses, Ashura Shinto, another dimension-“God” Jehovah.
Mission: Lead a school and win three consecutive junior high school championships.
The new mission is to have Mifune Soumasa complete three consecutive junior high school championships, but there are no school restrictions.
Moreover, Mifune Soumasa also discovered that after learning about the other dimension – “God” Jehovah, his fifth dimension had improved.
However, because this dimension is only the most basic one, the improvement to one’s own strength is limited.
Therefore, Mifune Soumasa’s current strength is still world-class, but it is very close to the world’s top level.
Looking at his new task, Mifune Souma thought that if he wanted to achieve three consecutive championships, he must choose those strong schools, otherwise it would be difficult to complete this task.
This year, Makunotani won the national championship under the leadership of the new minister, Byodoin Phoenix.
After winning the championship, they even shouted the slogan of winning the national championship for two consecutive years, and their momentum was strong.
The main selections of Makinofuji are even more powerful, including Byodoin Phoenix, Omagari Ryuji, Harano Atsuki, Hakamada Izo, Date Oji, Banriya, and Kaji Futa.
Mifune Soumasa, who had read the original novel, knew that these people would be the first army of the future U-17.
Therefore, if Mifune Souma wants to achieve three consecutive championships, he must choose those strong schools, otherwise it will be difficult to accomplish this task.
But Mifune Somasa never thought of joining Makunofuji. After all, he knew what kind of person Byodoin Phoenix was. He was an extremely domineering person. If he joined Makunofuji, he would not be able to lead this school.
“Yes, I can choose Rikkai University!”
A light bulb went off in Mifune Soumasa’s mind, and he thought of Rikkai University in Kanto. Rikkai University was the overlord of Kanto, and had dominated Kanto for more than ten years.
Some of Rikkai University’s regular players are very strong now, such as Shuji Tanejima, Yuuma Mutsu, Yuho Mutsu, and Akuto Mitsutani. These people are the future members of the U-17 first team.
Moreover, the new president of Rikkai University, Shuji Tanejima, is as powerful as the Phoenix of Byodoin. He is famous throughout the country for his ability to destroy everything with one move, and his personality is not as domineering as the Phoenix of Byodoin.
Moreover, the most important thing is that Rikkai University respects strength, and whoever is the strongest is the boss. As long as he defeats Shuji Tanejima, he can become the minister of Rikkai University and lead Rikkai University.
However, it is still a bit difficult to complete the national championship three times in a row with the current strength of Rikkai University. After all, tennis is a team competition, and it will only be effective if the team is strong.
“We must find some more talents,” Mifune Souma thought to himself.
Mifune Sosho had two good candidates.
One is Jijujiro, who is currently studying at Okayama Okukoku Junior High School in Kansai.
One is his good friend, Ryuga Echizen.
The reason why Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryomasa became good friends was that when Mifune Soumasa had just realized the state of no self, Mifune Nyudo asked Echizen Nanjiro to teach Mifune Soumasa for a period of time in order to help Mifune Soumasa reach a deeper state of no self.
When Echizen Nanjiro saw the talented Mifune Munemasa, he was attracted by his talent and agreed to teach him for a period of time.
During that time, Echizen Nanjiro was also teaching Echizen Ryuga, so during that time, the two of them received instruction from Echizen Nanjiro together. It was also during that time that the two of them became good friends who could talk about anything.
Thinking of this, Mifune Somasa immediately called Echizen Ryuga.
beep!
“Hello, who are you?”
The call went through, but the person who answered was a girl with a very gentle and sweet voice.
“Hello, I’m looking for Echizen Ryomasa. My name is Mifune Soumasa and I’m his good friend. Is he here?”
“He’s here. Please wait a moment. I’ll go ask Long Ya to answer the phone.” After the girl said that, she shouted to Long Ya who was practicing tennis.
“Long Ya, your phone number”
“Cousin, who is it?” Echizen Ryoya walked over, his tone sounding a little lazy and nonchalant.
“So this girl is Ryuga’s cousin. Then she should be Echizen Raiko. She is just as gentle as in the original book,” Mifune Souma thought to himself.
“He said his name was Mifune Soumasa, and he said he was your good friend.”
“Oh, it’s Munemasa. I understand, cousin.” Echizen Ryoya took the phone from his cousin.
“Zongzheng, what’s the matter?”
“Long Ya, which school are you going to go to in junior high school?”
“I haven’t decided yet, what’s the matter?”
“I’m going to join Rikkai University High School. I hope you can join me in Rikkai University. Let’s join hands to dominate the junior high school tennis world. What do you think? Long Ya”
“Sure, no problem.”
“It’s settled.”
After making the call, Mifune Sosho ran to Mifune Nyudo and told him his decision.
“Since you have made up your mind, then go ahead. However, you must not neglect your practice. Do you understand?”
“Got it, old man,” said Mifune Soumasa and went to practice. After all, there was still some time before school started.
In early April, a few days before school started, Rikkai University Affiliated High School started in April.
Mifune Somasa refused Mifune Somasa’s offer to see him off and boarded the Shinkansen to Rikkai University Junior High School without anyone accompanying him.
As time passed, Mifune Soumasa arrived in Kanagawa Prefecture where Rikkai University Junior High School was located. After walking out, Mifune Soumasa saw Echizen Ryuga waiting for him.
“Hi, Longya”
“Hi, Zongzheng”
The two men greeted each other, and then Echizen Ryuga took Mifune Soumasa away in the car.
“Zongzheng, my old man told me that your strength has improved a lot. How about we find a time to compete?”
Echizen Ryomasa didn’t know that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had reached the world level, and Echizen Nanjiro didn’t tell him for fear of discouraging him. He only told him that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had improved a lot.
At the beginning, when Echizen Nanjiro heard the news that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had reached the world level, he was so shocked that he was speechless. He exclaimed in his heart that Mifune Soumasa was a monster. He was only in elementary school and he was already world-class. What else could he be but a monster?
“Okay, I believe that your strength has also improved a lot, Longya.” Mifune Somasa agreed to Echizen Longya’s request.
“Of course you will be surprised, and then I will definitely defeat you,” Echizen said proudly. Of course, this was also because Echizen Ryuya didn’t know the strength of Mifune Soumasa, otherwise he wouldn’t have said that.
It’s no wonder that Echizen Ryuga said that, because, in all the matches between them, Echizen Ryuga had never won against Mifune Somasa. But Echizen Ryuga was also a broad-minded person and didn’t mind these things, otherwise, he wouldn’t have become Mifune Somasa’s good friend.
While they were chatting, the car had arrived at the gate of Rikkai University Junior High School. They went to the school registration office and registered. Just like that, Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga became students of Rikkai University Junior High School, and were in the same class.
When I arrived at my class, I heard a shout from inside the classroom:
“Wow, so handsome!”
“Yeah! They’re both really handsome!”
“……”
Waves of crazy screams from girls were heard.
Zong Zheng and Long Ya ignored all of this.
When it came time for the two of them to introduce themselves, there was a stir in the class.
“Hello everyone, my name is Mifune Soumasa, my hobby is tennis, and I’m glad to be in the same class with you all,” Mifune Soumasa said in a gentle tone.
“Wow, so handsome and warm.”
“Wow, Master Zongzheng, I love you!”
Waves of crazy voices came from the audience.
“My name is Echizen Ryouga, and my hobby is tennis.” Ryouga’s self-introduction was even briefer.
But it still attracted the voices of crazy fans.
After class, Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga submitted their applications to the tennis club.
Then, they became members of the Rikkai University Tennis Club.
VII. The main selection competition begins (old version)
It has been a week since Mifune Soumasa and his friends joined the tennis club, and the main tournament of the Rikkai University tennis club will begin tomorrow. Mifune Soumasa is quite looking forward to the main tournament of the Rikkai University tennis club. After all, this is the first step for him to dominate the junior high school tennis world.
Mifune Soumasa was not worried about the main draw of the Rikkai University tennis club. After all, with his world-class strength, becoming a regular player at Rikkai University was as easy as drinking water.
Because the players of Rikkai University’s third year are about to graduate, all the regular players of the third year have withdrawn from the tennis club. Now the only regular players left in Rikkai University are Shuji Taneshima, Yuuma Mutsu, Yuho Mutsu, and Akutsu Mitsutani.
Although the third grade students resigned, the strength of Rikkai University has not weakened much. After all, Shuji Tanejima, Yuuma Mutsu, Yuho Mutsu, and Akutsu Mitsutani are the core members of Rikkai University now.
The top doubles team in junior high school, Yuuma Mutsu and Yuho Mutsu;
Data guru, Akuto Mitsuya;
The No. 2 player in junior high school, Shuji Taneshima, is now the No. 1 player in junior high school, Byodoin Phoenix. After Makinofuji won the national championship last year, Byodoin Phoenix became the number one player in junior high school tennis.
It was because of the existence of these four people that Rikkai University was able to continue to rule Kanto and maintain its position as the overlord of Kanto last year.
But it was precisely because there were only four of them with strong talents in Rikkai University that they lost to Makunofuji in last year’s national competition and only won the national runner-up. After all, Makunofuji’s overall strength is higher than that of Rikkai University.
This year is different. With the joining of himself and Ryuya, Mifune Souma believes that Rikkai Conference will win the national championship this year.
After a week of crazy training, Mifune Souma wanted to know if his strength had improved, so he opened the system panel.
Age: 12
Speed: 4.7
Total of five dimensions: 33.2
What made Mifune Soumasa happy was that after a week of crazy training, his speed in the fifth dimension increased by 0.2!
Even though the five dimensions are not the only criteria for measuring a player’s ability, they are absolutely crucial.
Therefore, Mifune Soumasa was quite happy about the increase in his fifth dimension.
The next day, on the tennis court of Rikkai University Junior High School, the players of Rikkai University were training. All the players were very excited because today was the day for the main competition of the Rikkai University Tennis Club.
This means they have a chance to become the starting pick.
“gather!”
At this time, the captain of the Rikkai University Tennis Club, Shuji Tanejima, shouted loudly.
All the team members immediately lined up in front of Shuji Tanejima. Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga stood in the freshman team, looking at the president of Rikkai University, Shuji Tanejima.
Shuji Tanejima has silver-white hair, dark skin, and a faint smile on his face, giving people a gentle feeling.
Tanejima Shuji glanced at everyone and said:
“Although we lost to Makinoto last year and only won the national runner-up!”
“But it doesn’t matter. I believe that as long as everyone continues to work hard, Rikkai University will definitely win the national championship this year!”
“So, our goal this year at Rikkai University is to win the national championship. Do you have confidence?”
“have!!!”
All the players were excited and shouted at the same time, very excited.
The national championship is what all schools are pursuing. All the players are very excited at the thought of having the opportunity to win the national championship.
Tanejima Shuji raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet, and then continued;
“Because the senior from the third grade of junior high school has quit the tennis club, the starting position has been vacated, so the team will also select a new starting player.”
“This time the trials are the same as before!”
“Strength comes first, the winner is the king!”
“The strongest person will be the first choice”
“So even if you’re a freshman, as long as you beat the other players, you can become a regular!”
“Does everyone understand?”
“Understood!!!”
All the people including the freshmen shouted excitedly.
Tanejima Shuji continued:
“Also, after the starters are selected, ordinary players will have the opportunity to challenge for the starters every month. All the starters can challenge, including me!”
“As long as you defeat the candidate, you can immediately take his place. The same goes for me. If you can defeat me, you can replace me as the president of Rikkai University!”
When these words were spoken, all the freshmen were in an uproar.
This is probably only the case with Rikkai University. No wonder Rikkai University has been able to dominate Kanto for so many years. This has to do with their tradition.
“That’s great. I don’t have to wait until the second year of junior high school to have a chance to become a regular!”
“Even if I lose this time, I can still continue to challenge!”
The freshmen were extremely excited.
Many schools implement the senior system. The older you are, the easier it is to become a regular. This can be seen from the situation of Seigaku when Tezuka Kunimitsu was in the first year of junior high school and Fudomine when Tachibana Yoshihei just joined the school.
This system means that talented players have to wait until the second year of junior high school to become a starter.
But Rikkai University is different, because Rikkai University has always believed that strength is supreme.
Hearing Taneshima’s words, Mifune Soumasa smiled and was not surprised. He came to Rikkai University because of this rule, because only with this rule can the strongest Rikkai University regulars be selected.
Echizen Ryomasa, who was next to Mifune Somasa, seemed very excited, with fire burning in his eyes, because this rule was very much in line with his wishes. He was not a person who was content with what he had to do, and was even a bit warlike.
“Since no one has any objections, then you, Yajiudou, will explain to them some of the rules and requirements of this main selection trial!”
After saying this, Shuji Tanejima gave the right to speak to the team’s data tennis master, Akuto Mitsutani.
After all, Mitsuya Akuto is more suitable for this kind of thing than Tanejima Shuji.
Mitsuya Akuto walked out of the team, holding a stack of papers, and said to everyone:
“This tryout will be conducted by all Rikkai University members!”
“There are eight groups in total, and the first place in each group will become the main pick!”
“I have written down the names and groups of all the team members on these papers and will distribute them to everyone when the time comes!”
“Players will go to their respective venues to compete according to the groups on the roster!”
“Okay, that’s it!”
After Mitsuya Akuto finished speaking, the group list was distributed.
Mifune Soumasa looked at the group list and found that he was in Group D, Echizen Ryuga was in Group C, and the four regular players of Rikkai University were also separated and in different groups.
“In that case, I declare the main selection round to begin now! Everyone, go to your respective venues!”
The Minister Shuji Tanejima announced the start of the competition, and then the main selection round of Rikkai University began.
Mifune Sosho started to head towards his competition venue with his tennis bag on his back.
8. Become the main player (old version)
“Now, please invite Mifune Soumasa and Kikawa Taro from Group D to compete.”
As the referee’s voice sounded, Mifune Sosho walked onto the tennis court to play his first game.
Mifune Soumasa’s opponent was a sophomore named Taro Kikawa, who was a bit gloomy. Taro Kikawa was quite strong among the ordinary team members, but he was rather gloomy, arrogant, and his tennis was aggressive. Everyone who played against him was injured to varying degrees. Therefore, some people gave Taro Kikawa the nickname “Cold-blooded Killer”.
Taro Kikawa licked his lips, cast a bloodthirsty look at Mifune Munemasa, and then said to him coldly:
“Boy, you’re unlucky to meet me”
“Hehe! Don’t blame me if you’re injured. Blame your bad luck!”
At this time, the players watching on the sidelines were also talking about it.
“I didn’t expect this freshman to be so unlucky as to run into the ‘cold-blooded killer’ Taro Kikawa!”
“Yeah, it’s pretty unlucky. I hope that guy Muchuan won’t be too harsh!”
“It seems that the first choice for our group should be Taro Kikawa. Compared to others, he is very strong!”
“I think so too!”
Of course, this “very strong” is for ordinary players. To Mifune Soumasa, a person of Kikawa Taro’s strength is just an ant, and he can crush him however he wants.
When Mifune Soumasa defeated U-17 and became the No.1 player in the team, what kind of people had he not seen? What kind of tennis style had he not encountered? The tennis of those players in U-17 was more aggressive and brutal than Taro Kikawa, and if he was not careful, he would be crippled. But so what? He was still beaten down by Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Soumasa’s own tennis style is also more inclined towards power-based tennis, it can even be said to be violent tennis. Mifune Soumasa’s light shots – Destruction, Thunder Axe, Ashura Shinto, and Different Dimension – “God” Jehovah, each of these skills is very aggressive, and any one of them can easily cripple a person, and what’s more, Mifune Soumasa was born with supernatural powers, and can easily turn an ordinary serve into a powerful one.
Therefore, for Soumasa Mifune, the offensive tennis played by Taro Kikawa is just child’s play.
“The match between Mifune Soumasa and Taro Kikawa starts now. Taro Kikawa serves,” the referee shouted loudly.
“Go to hell, kid!” Taro Kikawa smiled coldly, then threw the ball and swung the racket.
The tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa and towards Mifune Soumasa’s body. Taro Kikawa initially used his offensive tennis ball to attack Mifune Soumasa.
“A serve of this level is really too weak,” Mifune Soumasa chuckled.
“Boy, you’re trying to be stubborn now, but you’ll regret it later,” said Taro Kikawa with a sneer.
“I’ve decided, I’m going to beat you with one goal,” Mifune Souma said to Taro Kikawa.
Looking at the flying tennis ball, Mifune Souma took a step back slightly and stepped back with his right foot to provide himself with a support point on the ground.
Mifune Somasa’s arm muscles bulged, and then he swung his racket violently, hitting the tennis ball hard.
The loud noise startled the surrounding team members.
When they looked at the tennis ball, they found that it had cut through the air, with spiral whirlpools forming around it, and was moving fiercely towards Taro Kikawa.
The tennis ball hit Taro Kikawa with such a huge force that his body flew backwards. Taro Kikawa flew two meters away.
“ah!!!”
This powerful ball from Mifune Soumasa not only contained enormous power, but also contained terrifying rotating force.
The ball hit Taro Kikawa. The huge force and terrible rotation force caused Taro Kikawa to feel great pain. He screamed and then fainted.
Mifune Soumasa did not feel any guilt about this. After all, when you want to attack others, you must be prepared to be attacked by others.
Seeing this situation, everyone around swallowed their saliva. Obviously, they were all frightened by Mifune Soumasa’s terrible ball.
“Too…too scary!”
“One ball knocked Kikawa Taro unconscious. How scary!”
“……..”
This not only shocked them greatly, but also made the people around them begin to fear Mifune Munemasa.
They were afraid that when they competed with Mifune Soumasa, Mifune Soumasa would also hit them with a tennis ball like this.
“The…the game is over, because…because Taro Kikawa cannot continue the game and is deemed to have forfeited, the winner is, Mifune Soumasa.” After a long time, the referee announced the result. His voice was still trembling, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Mifune Soumasa was still full of fear. The referee was obviously also frightened by Mifune Soumasa’s terrible goal.
Taro Kimura was also carried away on a stretcher and sent to the school’s medical room for treatment.
The news that Mifune Soumasa knocked out Taro Kikawa with one shot began to spread wildly in the Rikkai University Tennis Club, which also made many people in the Rikkai University Tennis Club know the name of Mifune Soumasa.
“It seems that our tennis club has a strong new student. This is great!” After hearing this, Shuji Tanejima said happily. He was very happy because this would improve the strength of Rikkai University.
But Shuji Tanejima did not say anything to Mifune Munemasa for knocking Taro Kikawa unconscious. After all, Rikkai University believed in strength above all else, and if you were not as skilled as others, you should not blame others. He also knew what kind of person Taro Kikawa was.
As Mifune Soumasa’s reputation spread throughout Rikkai University, he also earned the title of “violent maniac”. In response to this, Echizen Ryuga even made fun of him, saying that the title suited him very well.
This situation also led to the fact that when it was Mifune Souma’s turn to compete, most of his opponents gave up. Mifune Souma was not depressed about this, but rather a little happy. After all, he didn’t want to waste his time on these weak people.
…….
“The game is over, the score is 6-0, Mifune Soumasa wins!” As the referee’s voice sounded, Mifune Soumasa defeated his last opponent in less than ten minutes without losing a single ball. He ended the game cleanly and became the first in Group D, which means that Mifune Soumasa became the regular player of Rikkai University’s tennis club.
Ryuga Echizen also won the first place in Group C and became the regular player of Rikkai University.
At this time, the eight regular players of Rikkai University had all come out, including Mifune Souma, Echizen Ryuga, Taneshima Shuji, Mutsu Yuma, Mutsu Yuho, Mitsutaya Akutsu, and two second-year students whom Mifune Souma did not know, Aso Tomoya and Suzuki Ichiro.
These eight players are the new regular players of Rikkai University.
9. Challenge Tanejima Shuji (old version)
Mifune Munemasa became the official candidate for Rikkai University, but he was not satisfied with this, because what he wanted was to lead Rikkai University, and the system task also required Mifune Munemasa to lead Rikkai University.
Moreover, Mifune Soumasa is not a person who is willing to be inferior to others. He does not want others to command him. The system does not want its host to be a person who is willing to be inferior to others, and Mifune Soumasa’s personality does not allow him to be such a person.
Then, Mifune Munemasa walked up to Tanedashima Shuji and said to him solemnly:
“Minister Tanejima, I want to challenge you. Please come and compete with me!”
Mifune Soumasa’s words could be said to cause a huge stir, shocking the surrounding team members speechless. They had not expected that this first-year regular would actually intend to challenge the senior regular, and even challenge their captain, Tanejima Shuji.
You need to know who Shuji Tanejima is. Shuji Tanejima is the minister of Rikkai University. He is comparable to the number one person in the country, Byodoin Phoenix. He is known as the number two in the country and has strong strength. The reason why Rikkai University was able to win the national runner-up last year was because of Shuji Tanejima. From this, you can see how powerful Shuji Tanejima is.
Therefore, when they heard that Mifune Souma was going to challenge Tanejima Shuji for the position of minister, they all found it incredible and started to discuss:
“How arrogant! Mifune Munemasa actually dared to challenge Minister Tanejima!”
“Although Mifune Soumasa is also the correct choice, I think he is definitely no match for the Minister!”
“That’s right. After all, Minister Tanejima is a top-notch expert in the country.”
“Yeah, and he’s the No. 2 in the country. His strength is comparable to the No. 1 in the country, Byodoin Phoenix, the minister of Makuno Teng!”
The players of the surrounding tennis clubs were not optimistic about Mifune Soumasa’s challenge this time. Although they knew that Mifune Soumasa was equally strong, if Mifune Soumasa was not strong, how could he become a regular player of Rikkai University? However, the players of the surrounding tennis clubs were still not optimistic about Mifune Soumasa and believed that Mifune Soumasa was no match for Tanejima Shuji.
But there is only one person who doesn’t think so, and that person is Mifune Soumasa’s good friend, Echizen Ryuga, who is also a first-year regular. Because Echizen Ryuga’s current strength has reached the national peak, the same as Taneshima Shuji’s strength. Since his own strength has reached the national peak, Echizen Ryuga does not think that his good friend Mifune Soumasa’s strength will be worse than his. After all, Echizen Ryuga knows how terrifying Mifune Soumasa’s talent is, otherwise why would he never defeat him once.
Echizen Ryuga believes that the winner of this match will definitely be his good friend Mifune Soumasa, and Echizen Ryuga has confidence in Mifune Soumasa.
Echizen Ryomasa even walked up to Mifune Soumasa and said with a smile, “Good luck, future Minister Soumasa!”
This made Mifune Soumasa laugh and cry. He was also helpless about the unreasonableness of his good friend Echizen Ryuga.
Even Tanejima Shuji himself did not expect that Mifune Soumasa, a first-year regular, would come to challenge him. However, he would not say that Mifune Soumasa was arrogant. He would only think that Mifune Soumasa was courageous. After all, knowing that he was very powerful, he still came to challenge himself. If that wasn’t courage, then what else could it be?
But what Shuji Tanejima didn’t know was that Mifune Soumasa was not only courageous, but also terrifyingly strong.
“Okay, I accept your challenge!” Shuji Tanejima looked at Mifune Souma’s eyes full of fighting spirit and agreed with a smile.
Just as Tanejima Shuji accepted Mifune Soumasa’s challenge, the voice of the Strongest Overlord System sounded:
“Host, there is a new task, please check it out.”
The Strongest Overlord System prompted Mifune Soumasa that he had a new task. Then, Mifune Soumasa opened the system panel to check the new task.
Physical strength: 5.1
Total of five dimensions: 33.3
Realm: World Class (infinitely close to the world’s top level).
Mission: 1. Lead a school and win the junior high school championship three times in a row. 2. Defeat Shuji Tanejima and become the president of Rikkai University.
When Mifune Soumasa saw that the new mission was to defeat Tanejima Shuji and become the president of Rikkai University, he thought that this was exactly what he was going to do next. Mifune Soumasa felt that this system was very considerate.
After reading the new task, Mifune Somasa closed the system panel and followed Tanejima Shuji to the tennis court used for the competition.
The tennis court was crowded with people. Now everyone in Rikkai University knew that Mifune Sogen was going to challenge Tanejima Shuji, so many people came to watch the game.
“Since you two want to compete, let me be the referee, okay?” At this time, the data tennis master, Mitsutani Akuto came over and said to Mifune Souma and Taneshima Shuji.
“Can!”
“no problem!”
Mifune Soumasa and Tanejima Shuji answered together that Mifune Soumasa believed in Mitsugaya Akuto’s character and believed that Mitsugaya Akuto would be fair and just.
“In that case, let’s start the game!” When Mitsutani Akuto saw that Mifune Soumasa and Tanejima Shuji were ready, he announced the start of the game.
When guessing who would go first, Shuji Tanejima guessed correctly, so Shuji Tanejima served first.
Shuji Tanejima took the ball out of his trouser pocket and gently slapped it on the ground.
The sounds of tennis balls rang out in an orderly manner, and the onlookers held their breath and watched the game attentively.
Shuji Tanejima bent his knees and jumped, slamming the racket down hard.
Tennis balls flying.
The ball flashed and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
“So… so fast!!!”
The onlookers were shocked when they saw this serve and exclaimed in amazement.
Because the speed of this ball reached at least 200KM/H.
“Not bad, but it’s still too slow for me!”
Mifune Soumasa smiled slightly.
Mifune Somasa took a step back, leaned back slightly, and then swung the racket hard in a certain direction.
The sound was heard, and the disappeared tennis ball appeared on Mifune Soumasa’s racket.
“No way! He received Minister Tanejima’s serve so easily!”
“Is this true?”
When the onlookers saw Mifune Souma easily catch the tennis ball that was about to disappear, they showed shocked expressions on their faces.
In response to this, Shuji Tanejima also frowned.
Although the speed of this serve is not my fastest speed, it is not much different from my fastest speed.
Unexpectedly, Mifune Soumasa could easily catch his high-speed serve.
“It seems that the opponent’s strength is stronger than imagined!”
Tanejima Shuji thought to himself.
10. Destroyed (Old Version)
Although Shuji Tanejima’s quick serve was caught by Mifune Soumasa, Shuji Tanejima was not discouraged, but was full of fighting spirit.
When they looked at the tennis ball, they found that it had cut through the air, with spiral whirlpools forming around it, and was flying fiercely towards Shuji Tanejima.
The tennis ball hit the ground with a loud crash.
All the players watching were shocked. They didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa’s strength was so strong that an ordinary return ball contained such powerful force.
“Power ball? Or spin ball?”
Shuji Tanejima looked at the flying tennis ball and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa could hit such a powerful ball with just an ordinary hit.
Shuji Tanejima knew that Mifune Soumasa’s shot was not as simple as it seemed, and it was not a simple powerful shot.
Because just now, Shuji Tanejima saw that the tennis ball did not bounce up immediately after it fell to the ground, but instead rotated on the ground for a while before bouncing up.
The high-speed rotation brings about a strong ejection, coupled with the powerful impact, so the ejection force of this ball is at least four times that of an ordinary power ball.
“Mifune Munemasa, the first-year regular, is really not an ordinary character. He is very powerful!”
Shuji Tanejima thought with a serious expression, but he was not afraid because he was confident in his own strength. He believed that he could return the ball from Mifune Soumasa.
Shuji Tanejima pushed hard with his toes and rushed quickly towards the place where the tennis ball landed.
Shuji Tanejima quickly appeared in front of the tennis ball.
“Wow….so amazing!”
“Minister Tanejima is so fast!!!”
“…….”
All the people watching were shocked by Tanedo Shuji’s speed. They found that their eyes could not keep up with Tanedo Shuji’s speed.
“It’s quite fast,” Mifune Soumasa chuckled.
Mifune Soumasa has the bug-level talent of “Eye of Domination” and his amazing dynamic vision.
Therefore, Mifune Soumasa saw through Tanejima Shuji’s speed skills at a glance.
Shuji Tanejima simply used the instantaneous burst of strength from his calf muscles to increase his speed to a very fast level. This speed of Shuji Tanejima is a little difficult to capture with the naked eye, so the onlookers felt that their eyes could not keep up with Shuji Tanejima’s speed.
This technique is called “instant force”, which Mifune Soumasa also knows. Moreover, Mifune Soumasa’s “instant force” is stronger than Tanejima Shuji’s “instant force” and more terrifying than his.
The power of the “instant force” technique is related to the physical fitness of the user. Because Mifune Soumasa’s physical fitness is stronger than Tanejima Shuji’s, Mifune Soumasa’s “instant force” is stronger and more terrifying than Tanejima Shuji’s “instant force”.
Mifune Soumasa’s physical fitness is at the “monster” level. After all, Mifune Soumasa has been undergoing Mifune Nyudo’s hellish training since he was a child, which has also created Mifune Soumasa’s monstrous physical fitness, far beyond that of ordinary people.
Shuji Tanejima held the racket with both hands and caught the powerful shot from Somasa Mifune.
“What a powerful spin! What a strong force!”
But soon, Shuji Tanejima’s face changed, and he found that he could not fight back. The high-speed rotation and the powerful force made Shuji Tanejima unable to resist.
Shuji Tanejima’s racket was hit directly away.
A roar was heard, and on the wall behind Shuji Tanejima, a smoking tennis ball appeared, spinning slightly.
Everyone around swallowed subconsciously because it was too horrible!
“Mifune Soumasa scores, the score is 15-0.” The voice of referee Akuto Mitsutani brought the onlookers back to their senses. Even Akuto Mitsutani was shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s goal.
“What a terrible goal!”
“This is too much! Even Minister Tanejima couldn’t resist it!”
The members of the Rikkai University team who were watching the scene burst into exclamations.
“It seems that Zong Zheng’s strength has become even more terrifying. The old man is right. Zong Zheng is a ‘monster’!”
Even Ryuga Echizen who was standing by was shocked by the strength of his good friend.
“I didn’t expect him to be so powerful. It seems that Mifune Soumasa is far more terrifying than I thought!”
Shuji Tanejima thought with a serious expression.
Shuji Tanejima didn’t expect that he couldn’t even withstand an ordinary attack from Mifune Soumasa. From this, we can see how terrifying and unfathomable Mifune Soumasa’s strength is.
“It seems that the first-year candidate Mifune Soumasa is stronger than me. It seems that I have to use that trick! Otherwise, he will defeat me.”
Shuji Tanejima didn’t want to be defeated, so he prepared to use his unique skill “Annihilation”. He was still very confident in his unique skill.
“It looks like Shuji is going to use that move,” Mitsutaya Akuto thought as he looked at Taneshima Shuji. At the same time, Mitsutaya Akuto also knew the power of “Yi Mie Wu”. After all, this was Shuji Taneshima’s nationally famous trick, and it was the one that made Shuji Taneshima what he is today.
Shuji Tanejima took the ball out of his pocket again and gently slapped it on the ground.
He jumped with his knees bent and slammed the racket down hard.
The tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Somasa swung his racket violently, hitting the flying tennis ball hard.
The loud noise was heard again, and it was the same powerful spinning ball as before.
The tennis ball hit Shuji Tanejima’s racket heavily, making a loud bang.
Buzz!
There seemed to be strange fluctuations around Shuji Tanejima’s racket, and then Mifune Soumasa’s ball seemed to have lost its power.
Then Shuji Tanejima quickly hit the ball back!
“It appears, Minister Tanejima’s special move ‘Destroy Nothingness’!!”
“Minister Tanejima, you are amazing!!!”
The appearance of Shuji Taneshima’s “Yi Mie Wu” caused bursts of exclamations from the onlookers. They were all shocked by Shuji Taneshima’s miraculous skills.
“It seems like Shuji is going to use all his strength,” Mitsutani Akuto thought to himself as he looked at Shuji Taneshima.
“Yimiewu, what a good move!” Echizen Ryuga on the side also murmured.
“I didn’t expect the opponent to use his special skill so quickly. Although ‘Yi Mie Wu’ is said to be able to return all the balls, you can’t do it with your current strength and physical fitness!” Mifune Munemasa murmured as he looked at Tanejima Shuji who used ‘Yi Mie Wu’.
“Let me see if your ‘Destroyed Nothingness’ can really hit back all the balls!”
Mifune Somasa quickly ran to the place where the tennis ball landed, then swung his racket violently, hitting the flying tennis ball hard.
The loud noise was heard again, and this was a more powerful spinning ball than before.
The tennis ball hit Shuji Tanejima’s racket again, making a loud bang.
Shuji Tanejima once again used his special skill “Annihilation” to dissipate the power of Mifune Souma’s ball, but the time it took to dissipate the power was longer than before.

11. Yimianwu vs. Thunder Axe (old version)
After Shuji Tanejima used “Destroy Nothing” to neutralize Mifune Soumasa’s ball, he hit the ball back and hit it in midfield.
Mifune Somasa quickly ran to the midfield, then increased the power of his swing and hit the tennis ball hard.
Another powerful spinner, also hit to mid-off.
When Tanejima Shuji saw the ball, he quickly followed and used the technique of Annihilation to dissipate the power of Mifune Soumasa’s powerful spinning ball.
The tennis ball flew backwards quickly, and Mifune Souma smiled slightly and hit a short ball.
Shuji Tanejima was shocked. He didn’t expect Mifune Soumasa to hit a short ball. This caught Shuji Tanejima off guard. He thought Mifune Soumasa would fight him head-on, so he stood at the baseline, waiting for Mifune Soumasa’s powerful ball.
Shuji Tanejima didn’t think much about it and ran quickly from the baseline to the net.
Shuji Tanejima came to the net and hit the ball back.
But soon, a loud roar sounded in Shuji Tanejima’s ears, and before he could react, the tennis ball flew past him quickly.
The tennis ball hit the court behind Shuji Tanejima with a loud crash.
The entire venue shook, and the Rikkai University players who were watching were also startled.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 30-0!”
The voice of Mitsuya Akuto sounded.
“This is fake! Minister Tanejima actually lost two goals in a row.”
“Mifune Sou is just amazing!!”
The players of Rikkai University who were watching the game were talking about it. They found it hard to believe that Shuji Taneshima conceded two goals in a row. After all, Shuji Taneshima was the number two player in the country.
“call!”
Shuji Tanejima took a deep breath, looking somewhat helpless. It was not that he reacted too slowly, but that Mifune Souma’s counterattack was too quick, which caught him off guard.
Shuji Tanejima didn’t think much about it, took out the tennis ball, and swung the racket quickly to serve.
The tennis ball flew toward the right side of Mifune Soumasa.
Seeing this, Mifune Soumasa ran quickly and came to the place where the tennis ball landed.
The muscles in Mifune Souma’s arms bulged, and then he increased his strength once again, swung the racket violently, and hit the tennis ball hard.
It was another powerful spinning ball with great force and power. The power of this powerful spinning ball was stronger than the previous ones because when Mifune So was swinging the racket, he once again increased the force of the swing, which made this powerful spinning ball more powerful.
Hiss!
The tennis ball hit the ground hard with a loud bang, but it did not bounce up immediately. Instead, it spun rapidly on the ground with friction sounds.
“What a powerful spin!”
With his powerful dynamic vision, Shuji Tanejima saw the terrifying rotation contained in Mifune Soumasa’s ball.
The rotation of this ball is at least three times that of the previous one!
Shuji Tanejima saw this scene and quickly ran to where the tennis ball landed.
In response to Mifune Souma’s terrifying and powerful spinning ball, Tanejima Shuji used the Annihilation Technique to dissolve the power of it.
But this time, the time it took to dissolve the Yimie Wu was extended again.
“It seems that this ball is about to exceed the limit of annihilation,” Shuji Tanejima thought to himself as he looked at the ball.
Shuji Tanejima quickly hit the tennis ball back after the power was dissipated, and the tennis ball quickly flew towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Sosho swung his racket again at the flying tennis ball, hitting another powerful spinning ball.
The tennis ball flew fiercely towards Shuji Tanejima.
“It’s useless. In front of my Yimiewu, no matter how powerful your power ball is, it’s useless. Don’t waste your energy!”
“In front of my Yimiewu, there is no ball that cannot be returned!”
Shuji Tanejima looked at the flying tennis ball and said to Somasa Mifune.
Then, Shuji Tanejima quickly ran towards where the tennis ball fell.
Shuji Tanejima once again used his Annihilation Technique and hit the tennis ball back hard.
The tennis ball flew rapidly towards Mifune Soumasa.
“Oh, really?” Mifune Somasa responded with a smile after hearing what Tanejima Shuji said.
“Since you said that there is no ball that cannot be returned in front of your Yimiewu, then you can try to see if your Yimiewu can resolve this move!”
Mifune Somasa looked at the flying tennis ball and said to Tanejima Shuji.
“It seems like Soumasa is going to use his hidden skills, but I don’t know how terrifying this skill is?” Mifune Soumasa said, looking at his good friend Echizen Ryuga at the side. He knew that his friend had hidden his strength, but he didn’t know how much.
“Take it! Thunder Axe!!!”
Mifune Soumasa roared and used his own basketball skills, Thunder Axe, on the flying tennis ball. Mifune Soumasa hit the tennis ball hard with the racket in his hand. The racket flashed a purple-blue light and was also accompanied by lightning.
The roar was heard, the entire tennis court trembled, the air waves surged, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Shuji Tanejima.
Shuji Tanejima looked at the flying tennis ball and felt the horror of it, so he gripped the racket tightly with both hands, caught the flying tennis ball, and used the Annihilation Technique to prepare to dissolve the power of Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
But soon, Shuji Tanejima’s face changed. He found that his Yimiewu was unable to dissolve Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe and was almost unable to resist it. This was because the power contained in this ball was too terrifying and it also carried the power of thunder, which had completely exceeded the limit of his Yimiewu.
Shuji Tanejima’s racket was hit away again.
A roar was heard, stone chips flew, and on the wall behind Shuji Tanejima, a charred, smoking tennis ball was embedded.
“Mifune Somasa scored, the score is 40-0.” The voice of Mitsutani Akuto came back to their senses.
“How terrible! Even Minister Tanejima’s Yimiewu can’t fight back!”
The Rikkai University team members who were watching the scene burst into exclamations.
“No… No way, Zong Zheng’s move is too terrifying!”
Even Ryuga Echizen who was standing by was shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
Shuji Tanejima took a deep breath again, looking somewhat helpless and his face very solemn.
Shuji Tanejima never expected that Mifune Soumasa’s ball would be so terrifying that he couldn’t even resolve it with his own Yimiewu.
In fact, what Shuji Tanejima didn’t know was not that Yimiewu was unable to dissolve the Thunder Axe, but that his Yimiewu was not yet perfect. Because his physical fitness was not strong enough, his Yimiewu was unable to dissolve Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
You know, in the original work of Prince of Tennis, Shuji Tanejima, relied on his Imiewu to firmly occupy the No. 2 position in the army. Even Byodoin Phoenix and Oni Jujiro could not do anything to him. This shows how powerful Imiewu is.
12. Crush the Island Repair 2 (Old Version)
Shuji Tanejima didn’t expect that he would be pushed to this extent by Mifune Soumasa. Not long after the game started, he had already lost three goals in a row, and that was when he was using his full strength.
However, Shuji Tanejima still couldn’t believe that his Yimiewu couldn’t dissolve Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe, so Shuji Tanejima prepared to try again with his Yimiewu to see if he really couldn’t dissolve Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
Shuji Tanejima didn’t think much about it and started serving. The tennis ball was raised again, and he swung the racket quickly and slammed it down hard.
“It was too fast! I couldn’t even see the ball!”
“Minister Tanejima’s serve was even faster than his previous serve!”
“I don’t think Mifune Soumasa will be able to pick it up this time!”
Because the speed of this ball reached at least 210KM/H, this was a serve from Shuji Tanejima with all his strength, so the speed of the ball also reached Shuji Tanejima’s maximum speed.
“Yes, the ball speed is quite fast, but for me, this speed is still not fast enough!”
Mifune Soumasa chuckled.
Mifune Somasa pushed the ground with his toes and rushed towards where the tennis ball landed.
Swish!!
Mifune Somasa took a step and appeared in front of the tennis ball.
“What!!!”
“What’s going on!!!”
“What happened? Why did Mifune Souma suddenly appear in that position?”
“Could it be that Mifune Soumasa… can teleport?”
The onlookers’ eyes blurred and they found that Mifune Soumasa had disappeared from his original position and suddenly appeared at a place far away from his original position, as if he had teleported.
Seeing this magical scene, the Rikkai University team members who were watching all showed shock on their faces. They had no idea how Mifune Souzen did it.
“I didn’t expect that Mifune Munemasa also knew how to exert force instantly, and it’s so fast!”
Shuji Tanejima was also shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s speed.
Shuji Tanejima understood that Mifune Soumasa’s technique was not teleportation. With his amazing dynamic vision, he saw through Mifune Soumasa’s technique at a glance and knew that it was the same technique of instantaneous force generation as his own, but the instantaneous burst of power in Mifune Soumasa’s calf muscles was stronger than his, so the onlookers thought it was teleportation.
“Mifune Munemasa’s physique is really strong!”
Shuji Tanejima sighed.
Shuji Tanejima knew that in order to achieve such teleportation-like speed, one must have strong physical fitness. However, he could not do it like Mifune Soumasa because his physical fitness was not strong enough.
Mifune Soumasa came to the point where the tennis ball landed, took a step back, and leaned back slightly. The racket in Mifune Soumasa’s hand flashed a purple-blue light with lightning, and then the tennis ball reappeared and hit him heavily.
“Thunder Axe!”
Mifune Soumasa once again used his skills, the Thunder Axe.
The tennis ball flashed and once again turned into a purple-blue light with lightning, penetrating the entire court.
Shuji Tanejima looked at the flying tennis ball, gripped the racket tightly with both hands, and then caught the flying tennis ball.
Buzz!!
Shuji Tanejima still didn’t believe that his Yi Mie Wu would fail, so Shuji Tanejima used his Yi Mie Wu once again, hoping that this time he could dissolve the power of Mifune Souma’s Thunder Axe.
But the result was that Shuji Tanejima’s racket was hit away again.
There was a loud roar, stone chips flew, and the tennis ball was once again embedded in the wall behind Shuji Tanejima.
“No matter how many times I see it, Munemasa’s move is still so terrifying!” Echizen Ryuga was surprised again.
With this ball falling, Mifune Souma won the first game.
Score 1-0
Shuji Tanejima took a deep breath and walked towards the rest area, because when he was fighting with Mifune Soumasa before, every return ball of Mifune Soumasa was very powerful, which made Shuji Tanejima lose a lot of physical strength. Moreover, when he used Yimiewu to dissolve Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe, he lost most of his physical strength, so Shuji Tanejima was exhausted and sweating.
In the rest area, Shuji Tanejima sat on a chair, drinking water to replenish his lost water and physical strength.
Shuji Tanejima looked up at Mifune Soumasa and found that Mifune Soumasa did not go to the rest area, but was juggling the ball on the court. He also found that Mifune Soumasa’s breathing was very steady and there was no trace of sweat on his body, only a few beads of sweat on his forehead. Unlike himself, he was sweating profusely, breathing rapidly, and his body was extremely tired.
“Mifune Munemasa’s physical fitness is truly terrifying!”
Seeing this scene, Shuji Tanejima said helplessly.
“Shuji, are you okay?”
Mitsuya Akuto looked at Tanejima Shuji and said with some concern.
Mitsugaya Akuto could see that in just one round, Tanejima Shuji had consumed most of his physical strength, and his momentum was mostly knocked away by Mifune Soumasa, while Mifune Soumasa, on the other hand, seemed to have consumed no physical strength at all.
“Don’t worry, Ajiudou, I’m fine.”
Shuji Tanejima drank water and suppressed the helplessness in his heart, while Akuto Mitsugaya could only shake his head helplessly when he heard what Shuji Tanejima said.
After a short break, the game started again.
In the second game, it was Mifune Souma’s serve.
In this round, Mifune Souma used powerful spinning balls and thunder axes alternately, which quickly consumed Tanejima Shuji’s physical strength and put him under tremendous pressure.
Mifune Soumasa easily fought back and struck out the Thunder Axe that Tanedo Shuji could hardly counterattack. In addition, Mifune Soumasa looked calm and composed, which put Tanedo Shuji under great pressure.
Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe once again flew past Tanejima Shuji at high speed. A roar was heard, stone chips flew, and the tennis ball was once again embedded in the wall behind Tanejima Shuji.
With the ball falling, Mifune Soumasa won the game.
Score 2-0
In this round, Shuji Tanejima not only consumed a huge amount of physical energy, but also did not get a single point.
“This… this is fake! Minister Tanejima didn’t get a single cent!”
“Mifune Munemasa is so scary!”
This situation also shocked the Rikkai University players who were watching.
The game continued, and under Mifune Souma’s powerful attack, the score gradually widened.
The score is 5-0.
Mifune Souma won the fifth game, leaving only one game left.
In these five games, Shuji Tanejima did not score a single point, and these five games lasted less than fifteen minutes from the beginning to now. It can be said that Shuji Tanejima was completely crushed by Somasa Mifune.
“Minister Tanejima was completely crushed!”
“It’s fake! You know, Minister Tanejima is a top-level expert in the country!!”
“Mifune Munemasa’s strength is truly terrifying!!”
The onlookers were talking about the matter. They had not expected that Minister Tanejima would be crushed by Mifune Soumasa.
You have to know that Shuji Tanejima is a top master in the country, the No. 2 in the country. Such a Shuji Tanejima was actually crushed by Mifune Soumasa, which surprised them very much.
“Munemasa’s strength surpasses mine by far! What a monster!” Echizen Ryuga was also shocked by Mifune Munemasa’s strength. After all, Echizen Ryuga himself didn’t dare to say that he would definitely win against Tanejima Shuji, let alone crush Tanejima Shuji.
“It seems that Shuji is going to be defeated. Mifune Souma’s strength is too terrifying!” Mitsutani Akuto on the side was also shocked.
“It seems that Mifune Soumasa is very strong, much stronger than me!” Tanejima Shuji said helplessly.
Shuji Tanejima took a deep breath, calmed himself, and prepared for the final round of the game.
PS: Collection is the author’s motivation for writing. I hope everyone will support Xiao K’s book, ask for collection, flowers, and everything.
13. Become a minister and become famous all over the country! (Old version)
A purple-blue light with lightning penetrated the entire venue.
A deafening roar sounded, and Mifune Soumasa finally ended the game with the Thunder Axe.
“The game is over, the score is 6-0, Mifune Soumasa wins,” the referee Akuto Mitsutani’s voice sounded, announcing the result of the game.
Mifune Somasa crushed Tanejima Shuji and won the match.
After the game, Shuji Tanejima lay exhausted on the court, sweating profusely, and a little dazed.
Shuji Tanejima did not expect that he would be defeated by Mifune Soumasa and was crushed. He did not score a single point in this game.
However, Shuji Tanejima also knew that it was not that he was too weak. After all, Shuji Tanejima was at the top of the national level and the No. 2 in the country. So it was not that he was weak, but that Mifune Soumasa was too strong. Even with his strength at the top of the national level, he was beaten by Mifune Soumasa without any chance to fight back and was directly crushed. From this, it can be seen that Mifune Soumasa’s strength was many times stronger than his.
“Is this your strength…..Mifune Soumasa?”
Shuji Tanejima took a deep breath to calm himself, then slowly stood up and looked at Mifune Soumasa with hope in his eyes, because he saw the hope of Rikkai University winning the national championship. He believed that with such a powerful person like Mifune Soumasa leading Rikkai University, they would definitely defeat Makino Fuji and win the national championship.
Makuzhiteng is now at its peak, and all of their starting players are only in the second year. If they continue like this, Makuzhiteng might really accomplish the great feat of winning the national championship three times in a row.
“Minister Tanejima, I’m sorry, you lose!”
Mifune Somasa came in front of Tanejima Shuji and said with a smile.
“I didn’t expect your strength to be so terrifying!”
“Mong Zheng, from today on you are the captain of the Rikkai University Tennis Club.”
Shuji Tanejima looked at Mifune Soumasa and said that Shuji Tanejima was not a man who went back on his word. Since his strength was not as good as Mifune Soumasa’s, Shuji Tanejima naturally could not serve as the Rikkai University tennis captain. After all, Rikkai University believed in strength above all else, and Shuji Tanejima was not the kind of person who had a strong desire for control.
“I didn’t expect Minister Tanejima to lose!”
“So, Mifune Soumasa will be the…head of Rikkai University in the future?”
“That’s right. After all, Minister Tanejima said before that whoever can defeat him can become the new minister of Rikkai University!”
“Minister Zongzheng?”
The Rikkai University team members who were watching were talking about it, and their eyes were filled with shock when they looked at Mifune Soumasa.
“gather!!!”
Shuji Tanejima walked off the field, looked at all the Rikkai University players, and shouted loudly.
The members of Rikkai University, who were originally still talking, stopped talking, immediately came in front of Shuji Tanejima, and quickly lined up.
“Everyone has watched the game just now, and I believe everyone knows the result of the game.”
“So, I declare that from today on, Mifune Soumasa will officially become the president of the Rikkai University Tennis Club!”
“Through the match just now, everyone should have understood Mifune Munemasa’s strength. I believe that Rikkai University will become even stronger under Mifune Munemasa’s leadership!!”
“I think everyone has no objection to this, right?”
Shuji Tanejima said while looking at all the team members.
“No!!”
All the team members responded loudly. Even if some of them had opinions, they didn’t dare to say it. After all, Mifune Soumasa’s strength was so terrifying.
“In that case, then we welcome Minister Zongzheng to say a few words!”
Shuji Tanejima looked at Mifune Soumasa and said.
Mifune Soumasa nodded, then stood next to Taneda Shuji, and Taneda Shuji returned to the team and gave his position to Mifune Soumasa. After all, Taneda Shuji was no longer a captain, but just a regular at Rikkai University.
“From today on, I am the…captain of the Rikkai University Tennis Club!”
Mifune Soumasa’s eyes swept over everyone, and all the members of Rikkai University showed a hint of recognition in their eyes.
Because they knew how powerful Mifune Soumasa was, and strong people are more likely to be recognized by others.
“Minister Zongzheng!”
All the members of Rikkai University shouted in unison, and then collectively bowed to Mifune Soumasa.
Seeing this, Mifune Somasa smiled slightly and felt a little happy.
He knew that from now on, he would be the new captain of the Rikkai University Tennis Club, but he was not worried that his position of captain would be taken away by others, because with his strength that was close to the world’s top level, his position as captain of Rikkai University was as stable as a rock.
Just when Mifune Soumasa became the head of Rikkai University, the voice of the strongest master system sounded:
“Congratulations host, you have completed the mission and received the mission reward. Please check it out!”
The Strongest Overlord System prompted Mifune Soumasa to complete the task. Then, Mifune Soumasa opened the system panel to check the task rewards.
Tips: 5.6
Total of five dimensions: 33.4
Talents: Annihilation (can dissolve all ball skills, but requires physical fitness), Natural Power, Eye of Domination (can see through all ball skills and copy them, but requires physical fitness).
Mission: 1. Lead a school and complete the junior high school championship three times in a row. 2. Defeat Tanejima Shuji and become the president of Rikkai University (completed, reward: talent – destroyed).
Mifune Soumasa didn’t expect that the reward for this mission would be Yimiewu. Although Yimiewu is a ball skill, it is more of a talent. This is a talent unique to Shuji Tanejima, and other people cannot learn it. Otherwise, in the original work, Shuji Tanejima would not be the only one who knows Yimiewu.
“Now that I’ve become the minister, let’s talk about our future goals!”
After closing the system panel, Mifune Souma looked at the Rikkai University team members in front of him and said, his eyes suddenly became serious:
“From now on, our goal is….the national championship!!!”
All of a sudden, all the players were filled with fighting spirit. They were from Rikkai University! Their goal should be to win the national championship!
“Tell me, our goal is…”
Mifune Soumasa looked at all the members of Rikkai University. What he wanted to do now was to strengthen the goals of all the members, because only in this way could the members burst out with 120 points of enthusiasm and their beliefs could become stronger.
Now that Mifune Soumasa has become the captain of Rikkai University’s tennis club, he has only one goal.
That is… the national champion!
“champion!”
“Our goal is to be the champion!”
All the team members shouted this sentence with all their strength.
When Mifune Soumasa saw this, a smile appeared on his face.
This year’s national championship…he is sure to win!
Not long after Mifune Soumasa defeated Tanejima Shuji and became the captain of the Rikkai University tennis club, the name “Mifune Soumasa” and his deeds began to spread wildly across the country.
Makinoto Tennis Club.
“What! Tanejima Shuji was defeated by a newcomer named Mifune Soumasa?” Makinoto’s regular pick Kaji Fuuda said loudly.
“This is true! And I heard that the score was 6-0, and Shuji Taneshima didn’t score a single point!” said Hakamada Izo, who was also selected as Makinofuji’s main candidate. When he first heard the news, he couldn’t believe it and thought it was fake. After all, Shuji Taneshima was a top national master, on par with his own minister, Byodoin Phoenix.
“It seems that our biggest rival of Makunofuji this year is Rikkai University!” Makunofuji’s main selection Oqu Ryuji said with a serious face.
“No matter who he is, if he meets me, I will let him know how powerful my punishment is,” said Harano Atsushi with a sneer.
“Hmph, this loser Shuji Tanejima can’t even beat a newcomer!” Byodoin Phoenix, the minister of Makunoteng, said with disdain.
Although Byodoin Phoenix showed disdain on the surface, his heart was filled with solemnity. After all, he knew that Shuji Tanejima’s strength was almost the same as his son’s. He didn’t even dare to say that he would definitely win against Shuji Tanejima. He didn’t expect that Shuji Tanejima would be beaten without any chance of fighting back. It seemed that this man named Mifune Somasa was very powerful.
Hyotei tennis club.
“It seems that Rikkai University has become even more terrifying this year.” After hearing the news, Kimijima Ikuto looked at Hyotei’s new director, Ochi Moonlight and said
“Um”
Ochi Gekko answered coldly with an expressionless face. After all, that was just his personality.
Yamabuki Tennis Club.
“Mifune Munemasa is such a scary person,” said Irie Kanata, the new captain of Yamabuki, with a smile.
Such scenes also occur in major tennis clubs across the country.
So, Mifune Somasa became completely famous.
14. Searching for the Ghost Jujiro (Old Version)
Kanagawa Prefectural University of International Business and Economics Tennis Club.
All the members of Rikkai University looked at the new captain, Mifune Soumasa, wanting to know what Mifune Soumasa’s first instruction would be.
“Continue training as usual!”
“Ajiudou, come with me!”
Mifune Soumasa did not announce any training plans. After all, Mifune Soumasa had only joined the Rikkai University tennis club for less than two weeks and did not know much about the strength of the Rikkai University players.
Therefore, Mifune Soumasa wanted to obtain the specific information of the team members from Mitsutaya Akuto, and then develop corresponding training plans for each person. After all, Mitsutaya Akuto is known as the data tennis master, and Mifune Soumasa believes that he must have detailed information of the team members.
All the players dispersed, and Mitsutaya Akuto followed Mifune Soumasa to the side of the court.
“Ajiudou, I want information about every member of the club!”
“oh?”
Mitsuya Akuto was stunned, then nodded.
After all, Mifune Soumasa is now their captain. If Mifune Soumasa asks him for the team members’ information, Mitsutaya Akuto will definitely give it to him. And Mitsutaya Akuto also knows what Mifune Soumasa wants to do. Mifune Soumasa wants to develop corresponding training plans for everyone in Rikkai University to improve Rikkai University’s strength.
But it’s also good this way. If the team members can be trained by Mifune Soumasa, their strength will definitely be greatly improved, so Mitsugaya Akuto also strongly supports Mifune Soumasa’s actions.
“These are the information of the second-year team members. There is also information on the regulars except for you and Echizen Ryuga. There is no information on the first-years yet, because they have just joined not long ago, so we haven’t had time to collect it yet.”
Mitsuya Akuto took out several notebooks from his body and handed them to Mifune Soumasa.
“That’s enough, that’s all!”
Mifune Soumasa naturally did not need the information on the first-year students, because the main training program for the first-year students was still based on basic training, and he knew more about Echizen Ryuga’s information than Mitsutani Akuto.
In fact, what Mifune Souma really wanted was the information of Rikkai University’s official selection.
“Um!”
Mifune Sosho nodded, then walked to the side and sat down, opened the notebook that recorded the information of Rikkai University’s regular candidates, and began to read it silently.
There are a total of eight people in Rikkai University’s regular selection. In addition to himself and Echizen Ryuga, there are also Tanejima Shuji, Mutsu Yuma, Mutsu Yuho, Mitsutani Akutsu, Aso Tomoya, and Suzuki Ichiro.
Mifune Soumasa frowned as he looked at the information about the starting lineup in his hand. Among the eight starting lineups, the only ones who can be truly trusted are himself, Echizen Ryuga, Taneshima Shuji, Mutsu Yuma, Mutsu Yuho and Mitsutaya Akutsu. The other two starting lineups, Aso Tomoya and Suzuki Ichiro, are not very strong.
Moreover, there are only four players in Rikkai University’s regular team whose strength has reached the national level or above, namely Mifune Souma, Echizen Ryuga, Tanejima Shuji, and Mitsutaya Akutsu. Although the Mutsu brothers’ doubles strength is at the national level, their individual strength has not yet reached the national level. Moreover, Mitsutaya Akutsu has just entered the national level not long ago and is not considered strong among all the national masters.
“It’s still a bit troublesome!”
Mifune Soumasa was very confident in his own strength and believed that he could defeat any opponent. After all, he had the strength of half a step to the world’s peak level. With his strength of half a step to the world’s peak level, he would be ranked No. 1 even among the junior high school students in the world.
But tennis is a team competition, and Mifune Souma alone cannot completely change the situation of the game.
If Rikkai University wants to win the national championship, it must win three games in order to win the team competition.
With the current strength of Rikkai University, although there is a great chance to defeat Makinoto and win the national championship, I can’t say it is 100% certain.
After all, Makinofuji now has five national-level masters. In addition to the national-level top Byodoin Phoenix, there are four national-level masters, Omagari Ryuji, Harano Atsuki, Hakamada Izo, and Kaji Futa, who are as strong as Mitsutani Akuto or stronger. Moreover, the doubles strength of Makinofuji’s doubles players Date Oji and Banriya is comparable to that of the Mutsu brothers. Even the Mutsu brothers dare not guarantee that they can win.
If Rikkai University faces Makinoto
I can guarantee victory in a game.
But Echizen Ryuga and the others cannot guarantee that. Although Echizen Ryuga and Tanejima Shuji are both top national masters, they still cannot guarantee victory if they face Byodoin Phoenix. You know, their strength is similar. Maybe Byodoin is stronger. After all, Byodoin is the No. 1 in the U-17 army in the original work.
The Mutsu brothers cannot guarantee victory. After all, the doubles players of Makinofuji, Date Oji and Banriya, are on par with the Mutsu brothers in terms of doubles strength.
Not to mention Akuto Mitsutani, after all, he has just entered the national level and there is no guarantee that he will win the competition.
“Maybe it’s time for him to join Rikkai University!”
A smile appeared on Mifune Soumasa’s lips. The person Mifune Soumasa was talking about was Oni Jujiro, a junior high school student who was even more powerful than Byodoin!
That’s right, the current Onijujiro is more powerful than Byodoin. You can know this from the original work. The Byodoin Phoenix who entered U-17 realized the other dimension – Pirates because he was defeated by Onijujiro.
The school that Onijujiro attends is Okayama Oh Junior High School, a school that cannot even make a breakthrough in major tournaments. However, Onijujiro’s goal is to become the strongest tennis player in Japan. Mifune Soumasa can start with this and let him join Rikkai University.
“Looks like we need to go to Okayama Prefecture!”
Mifune Soumasa whispered that there was still nearly a month left until the preliminaries, which was enough time to find Kijujiro. Moreover, Kijujiro’s joining could further increase Rikkai University’s chances of winning the national championship, so why not do it.
Of course, the most important thing now is to develop a training plan for the team members. Putting his mind back into it, Mifune Souma continued to look at the information in his hand.
“Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuuma are extremely strong in doubles, and they are almost at the point of opening Synchro Tuning. Now they want to become stronger. The way is to learn how to open Synchro Tuning, and also to improve their individual strengths!”
“As for Tanejima Shuji, if you want to become stronger, you have to improve your physical fitness and perfect your annihilation.”
Mifune Soumasa kept muttering as he looked at the information.
Afterwards, Mifune Souma put the information of the starting team aside and looked at the information of other team members.
However, the abilities of other team members are relatively mediocre. This mediocrity is not only in strength, but also in qualifications. Although these team members can improve their strength through hard training, compared with those geniuses, this improvement is too slow.
Therefore, Mifune Soumasa knew how these team members should be trained with just one look. Their training could only be basic improvement training, constantly improving the basics and increasing the amount of training to achieve a breakthrough.
Soon, Mifune Soumasa finished reading the information of all the members and had a general understanding of the situation of each member.
“Yajiudou”
Mifune Soumasa put away the information, handed it back to Akuto, then turned and walked towards the training ground.
Mifune Soumasa came to the training ground and shouted at all the team members. The team members who were still training immediately stopped what they were doing and quickly lined up in front of Mifune Soumasa.
“I have read your information. I will help you develop a new training plan in a while!”
“Okay, that’s it, let’s go practice!”
After saying this, Mifune Soumasa turned and left.
……..
After Mifune Souma handed over the task of training Rikkai University to Deputy Minister Tanejima Shuji, he took the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Okayama Prefecture early this morning. After a two and a half hour journey, he finally arrived in Okayama Prefecture.
“Ghost Jujiro, here I come!”
A smile appeared on Mifune Soumasa’s lips. As the train stopped, he followed the crowd to get off the train and walked out of the station. Mifune Soumasa took a taxi and went straight to the orphanage where Oni Jujiro was in the original work.
Mifune Soumasa learned from the director of the orphanage that Onijujiro had taken the children to the beach, so Mifune Soumasa came to the beach in Okayama Prefecture.
“Okay, come on, little devils!”
Mifune Soumasa saw a very mature-looking man standing by the river with a racket in his hand, and right in front of him was a jungle. In the jungle, there were small figures pulling rubber bands tied between trees, and on the rubber bands were grass-green tennis balls. Mifune Soumasa knew that this was the target he was looking for, Oni Jujiro, but Mifune Soumasa did not show up immediately.
“Ghost brother, you have to be careful!” a little girl shouted, and then released her arm that was pulling the rubber band. Seeing this, the other children also hurriedly released the rubber band. Under the powerful rebound force of the rubber band, the tennis ball shot out.
Kijujiro looked at the six or seven tennis balls rushing towards him with a sharp gaze, and just when they were about to hit him, he swung his racket with all his might.
A series of explosions were heard, and seven or eight tennis balls were caught one by one as Kijujiro’s racket swept through them, and he then threw the tennis balls accurately towards the river.
There was a loud roar, splashes of water, and then one could see fish floating on the water with their bellies turned up.
“Wow! Brother Ghost caught six fish…”
“Brother Ghost is so awesome!”
The children rushed out of the woods, clapping their hands excitedly and laughing and cheering.
It looks so beautiful in the bright sunshine.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Mifune Soumasa appeared and walked out. The sound of footsteps startled Oni Jujiro. He looked up and saw a handsome young man appear in front of him.
15. Oni Jujiro, join Rikkai University! (old version)
“Who is Your Excellency?”
Kijujiro stood up, protecting the children behind him, and said with some caution as he looked at the handsome young man in front of him.
“My name is Mifune Munemasa, and I’m the tennis club captain of Kanagawa Prefectural Kaida Junior High School!”
Mifune Somasa smiled and looked at Kijujiro and said.
“Mifune Munemasa? The head of Rikkai University? Wasn’t the head of Rikkai University Tanejima Shuji? When was he replaced?”
Kijujiro frowned, and then quickly remembered who Mifune Soumasa was. Wasn’t Mifune Soumasa the one who had been rumored to have crushed Tanejima Shuji with a score of 6-0 and become the new president of Rikkai University?
However, what surprised Kijujiro was that the news was actually true. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa really crushed Taneshima Shuji. You know, Taneshima Shuji is the No. 2 in the country. It seems that Mifune Soumasa’s strength is unfathomable.
“I wonder what you want, sir?”
Kijujiro let down his guard a little and looked at Mifune Soumasa with some confusion. He didn’t believe that Mifune Soumasa would come to him for no reason.
“I came to you this time in the hope that you can join Rikkai University and win the national championship with us!”
Mifune Somasa did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.
“I will not leave Okayama Prefecture, so please go back!”
Kijujiro was stunned. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa came to invite him, but he quickly shook his head and directly refused.
“Isn’t your dream to become the best tennis player in Japan?”
Mifune Soumasa was not surprised at all, as he had known that the other party would refuse.
“Excuse me, but do you think you can really achieve the goal of being the best in Japan in a school like Okayama Oku Junior High School, which can’t even make it to the metropolitan competition?”
These words reached the ears of everyone present, and Kijujiro fell silent.
His goal is indeed to become the best tennis player in Japan, but the children in these welfare homes are someone he cannot let go of. That is why he is reluctant to leave Okayama Prefecture, just to be with the children.
“Are these children the reason why you stayed in Okayama? But you have to know that if you continue to stay in Okayama, it will only waste your talent! If you continue like this for a long time, the gap between you and those who are not as strong as you will only get smaller and smaller, and they will even surpass you!”
“Ghost Lord, I think the national competition is a stage that is suitable for someone as powerful as you. Only the top players in the national competition are worthy of being your opponents!”
Mifune Soumasa knew the reason why Kijujiro rejected him, but even so, Mifune Soumasa did not give up persuading Kijujiro. After Mifune Soumasa finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked at Kijujiro, waiting for his response.
Kijujiro fell silent. It was indeed what he longed to fight with a strong man, but whenever he thought of his children, this desire would be suppressed deep in his heart and he dared not show it.
“Brother Ghost, you…go ahead.”
Suddenly a little girl spoke to Onigijujiro in a coquettish voice.
“We know that Ghost Brother’s wish is to become the best tennis player, so we hope that Ghost Brother can realize his wish! So…Ghost Brother, go pursue your dream!”
“Go ahead, Jujiro. The outside world belongs to you. I believe this is your wish and the wish of the children as well!”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of the children. Go and pursue your dreams!”
At this time, the director of the welfare home also appeared and spoke kindly to Onigijujiro.
The sincere words of the little girl and the dean made Onigiri completely silent, and at the same time, a warm feeling surged in his heart.
“I know, Dean, kids. I will definitely become the best tennis player in Neon!”
So, Kijujiro was no longer confused. He wanted to leave Okayama Prefecture and look into the wider sky to pursue his dreams.
After Kijujiro figured it out, he turned to Mifune Munemasa and said:
“I can join Rikkai University, but the prerequisite is that you must defeat me. Otherwise, your trip will be in vain.”
“Sure, no problem!”
Mifune Soumasa responded with a smile.
Mifune Somasa and Oni Jujiro came to a public tennis court in Okayama Prefecture to prepare for the next game.
The game begins, and Mifune Soumasa serves.
Mifune Somasa was hitting the tennis ball, looking at Kijujiro and recalling Kijujiro’s personal deeds.
Onijujiro, the No. 5 in U–17 in the original work, is the first among all high school students to comprehend the other dimension. He once defeated the Phoenix of Byodoin. Now Onijujiro is still in junior high school. His strength is undoubtedly at the top of his peers in the world, except for Mifune Soumasa himself. After all, Mifune Soumasa is the No. 1 among his peers in the world.
With a flick of the wrist, the tennis ball flew from between the fingers.
At the moment of falling, Mifune Souma exerted force on his ankles, leaned forward, and pressed the racket down swiftly.
There was a dull hitting sound, and the tennis ball turned into a beam of light and disappeared in an instant.
Kijujiro was still half-squatting in the same place. His eyes narrowed when he saw Mifune Souma hit the ball. Before he could react, a collision sounded beside him.
“So fast!”
He looked down and saw a shadow of a tennis ball passing by him and then bounced out of bounds.
ACE!
15–0!
Kijujiro turned his head slightly and looked at the tennis ball outside the court, his expression gradually becoming serious. Through one ball, it was enough to see the strength of the opponent. Mifune Munemasa, who could hit such a high-speed ball, was undoubtedly very powerful.
“As expected, he is the one who crushed Shuji Tanejima. His strength is unfathomable. I also heard that Mifune Munemasa is a power player. I didn’t expect his ball speed to be so fast!”
Kijujiro thought with a serious expression.
Mifune Soumasa swung his racket again, hitting another fast ball. With a dull sound, the tennis ball fell to the ground and then bounced out of bounds.
Mifune Sosho scored again.
30–0!
In just a few seconds, Mifune Soumasa had already scored two points.
“Show your true strength, Oni-kun, or your fate will be worse than Tanejima Shuji’s!”
Mifune Somasa spoke, and then continued to toss the ball and swing the racket.
The tennis ball flashed, and then another fast ball left an exaggerated afterimage and landed in front of Onijujiro.
Kijujiro’s eyes focused and he simulated the trajectory of the tennis ball in his mind. He stomped his feet on the ground and ran towards the tennis ball at an extreme speed.
The ball bounced up quickly when it was hit hard by Kijujiro. Time seemed to stop. The tennis ball was hit with great force, and the ball became an ellipse and then shot out.
“Ghost, that’s good!”
Mifune Soumasa said with a smile, but he didn’t care. After all, it was just an ordinary fastball that he could hit easily.
Mifune Soumasa ran quickly to the place where the tennis ball landed, his muscles bulged, and he swung the racket violently, hitting the tennis ball hard. Mifune Soumasa was ready to engage in a power tennis duel with Oni Jujiro.
With a loud bang, the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Oni Jujiro.
16. Mifune Souma vs. Onijujiro (old version)
There was a loud bang, and the tennis ball cut through the air, with spiral whirlpools forming around it, and flew fiercely towards Onijujiro.
Kijujiro’s eyes narrowed and he stepped forward subconsciously. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa’s casual attack could hit such a powerful ball.
“It seems that Mifune Munemasa is a very powerful player,” thought Onijujiro with a serious face.
Before Kijujiro rushed to the place where the tennis ball landed, he heard a violent sound of breaking through the air. When he looked up, he saw the tennis ball whistling towards him, with a huge air wave rolling up around it. The air wave rushed towards him, making his whole body stagnate, with the corners of his clothes and long hair dancing constantly.
A roar sounded and the entire ground shook.
Mifune Somasa scored.
40–0!
The game comes to match point!
“Ghost, are you still unwilling to show your true strength? Are you still unwilling to go all out?”
Mifune Somasa shook his head. He didn’t know what Kijujiro was thinking, but he would not show mercy.
The tennis ball was thrown up again, and Mifune Souma swung the racket violently again, hitting the tennis ball hard.
There was a loud bang, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Oni Jujiro.
Kijujiro’s eyes fixed, he took a step back, raised his racket, and waited for the tennis ball to bounce, but the ball did not bounce immediately, but spun rapidly on the ground.
A harsh friction sound was heard, and the spinning ball raised a cloud of dust.
“Spinning ball? Or a powerful ball? No! It should be both. This should be a powerful spinning ball!”
Kijujiro became alert, holding the racket and waiting for the tennis ball to bounce.
After staying for a short while, the tennis ball bounced at an extremely high speed, even faster than when it was hit. Kijujiro was startled and reacted immediately, swinging the racket quickly and forcefully.
The huge impact sound and the terrifying force of the tennis ball made Onijujiro’s arm tremble, because he felt the strong rotation force and terrifying force from this ball, which almost made his racket slip out of his hand. However, Onijujiro reacted immediately, stepped back with his right foot, put his other hand on the racket shaft, and gripped the racket tightly with both hands, making the originally shaking racket stabilize instantly.
“ah!”
Kijujiro shouted loudly and swung his racket with all his might.
The ball drew an arc at an incredibly fast speed, and after landing, it immediately bounced towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Somasa rushed out quickly, swung his racket and hit the flying tennis ball hard.
A huge sound of breaking through the air was heard, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Oni Jujiro again.
The tennis ball fell to the ground with a loud bang. The ball did not bounce up immediately, but spun rapidly on the ground.
“Another powerful spinning ball?”
Kijujiro’s eyes fixed, he took a step back, holding the racket and waiting for the tennis ball to bounce.
After staying for a short while, the tennis ball bounced back at a very high speed. Seeing this, Oni Jujiro swung his racket quickly and forcefully. The tennis ball actually rose sharply after bouncing back, which was beyond Oni Jujiro’s expectation.
There was a sound of breaking air, and this time, Kijujiro’s counterattack missed the target.
With Kijujiro’s ball missing, Mifune Soumasa won the first game.
The score is 1-0.
“Super strong rotation? What a terrifying ball control. With such strength, no wonder he was able to defeat Shuji Tanejima and even crush him.”
Kijujiro looked at the rotation marks that appeared at the landing point of the tennis ball and sighed, it was obvious that Mifune Soumasa used super-strong rotation and increased the rotation angle to increase the upward space of the tennis ball.
“But I won’t give up!” murmured Oni Jujiro.
“Knight of Ghosts, it’s your turn to serve!”
Mifune Somasa smiled and said to Onijujiro.
Through this game, Mifune Soumasa has already felt that Kijujiro’s basic strength is very good, plus his hidden strength, which makes Kijujiro’s overall strength surpass that of Byodoin Phoenix and others, reaching the level of half a step to the world class.
In the second year of junior high school, his strength had already reached half a step to the world level. From this, we can imagine how powerful Kijujiro’s talent is.
In terms of talent and strength, Kijujiro is second only to Mifune Soumasa among his peers in the world. He can be said to be the No. 2 among his peers in the world.
Of course, the strength of Onijujiro is still not enough for Mifune Soumasa. After all, half-step world class and world class are two completely different realms. What’s more, Mifune Soumasa is a monster at the peak of half-step world class.
Kijujiro serves the ball and the two sides start fighting again.
The tennis ball ricocheted onto the court, and the two men ran quickly, hitting the tennis ball continuously.
Mifune Souji used his racket and hit another powerful spinning ball.
Looking at the powerful spinning ball flying towards him, Onijujiro took a step back slightly and subconsciously stepped back with his right foot to provide himself with a ground support point. Facing the tennis ball that was coming towards him, Onijujiro swung his racket violently!
There was a loud explosion, and the tennis ball pierced the air and flew fiercely towards Mifune Soumasa.
“Powerball?”
Mifune Soumasa was not surprised by this goal. He knew that Kijujiro was originally a power player, and a super power player at that.
Mifune Soumasa’s body was ejected, and before the tennis ball hit the ground, he had already swung the racket vigorously.
The racket hit Mifune Soumasa’s tennis ball with such a huge force that Mifune Soumasa’s body paused and the face of the racket sank strangely. Moreover, this powerful ball not only contained huge power, but also contained a terrible rotation force. The ball was like a spiral needle, trying to break through Mifune Soumasa’s racket.
“Your strength is good, but don’t forget that I am also a power player, and my strength is stronger than yours, Ghost King. Go back!”
Mifune Somasa looked at Kijujiro and said, putting both hands on the racket at the same time, the muscles in his arms bulged, and a powerful force burst out and was transferred to the racket, hitting the tennis ball hard.
The tennis ball received a huge impact and instantly turned into a golden light that streaked across the entire court.
“Your Excellency’s strength is indeed strong. In this case, I will have no choice but to use my true strength!”
Looking at the ball that was hit back, Kijujiro’s eyes became extremely sharp.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kijujiro bent his legs and jumped up suddenly the moment the tennis ball came towards him.
“Sir, take it, Black Battle Axe!!!”
Kijujiro roared and hit the tennis ball with the racket in his hand. The racket unexpectedly flashed a purple-black light.
The tennis ball flashed and turned into a purple-black light, penetrating the entire court.
A deafening roar sounded, the entire ground trembled, air waves surged, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Mifune Soumasa.
“Are you finally serious?”
Mifune Soumasa smiled easily, looked at the ball, raised his racket, and saw that Mifune Soumasa’s racket also flashed a strange light, but unlike Kijujiro’s, this light was purple-blue, and flashed with lightning.
17. Black Battle Axe vs Thunder Battle Axe (Old Version)
“Let me see, is your black battle axe more powerful, or is my thunder battle axe stronger?!”
“Take that, Ghost King, the Thunder Axe!”
Mifune Soumasa smiled easily, looked at the ball, his arm muscles bulged, and the racket in his hand hit the tennis ball hard. The racket flashed a purple-blue light, and it was also accompanied by lightning.
Mifune Sojo faced the flying black battle axe and used his own thunder battle axe to meet it.
A huge crash sounded, and the tennis ball flashed, changing from a purple-black light to a purple-blue light with lightning, and from a black battle axe to a thunder battle axe, flying towards Kijujiro and running through the entire court.
“What! My black battle axe was actually shattered head-on!!”
Kijujiro said in shock, his eyes widened.
“As expected, he is the man who crushed Shuji Tanejima. He is so powerful!”
Kijujiro didn’t expect that his black battle axe would be broken by Mifune Soumasa, and Mifune Soumasa even broke his black battle axe from the front with super strong force, which shocked Kijujiro. Kijujiro also realized the terrifying strength of Mifune Soumasa through this ball.
There was a huge sound of impact with the ground, the entire tennis court trembled, air waves surged, and the tennis ball with purple-blue light of lightning flew fiercely towards Kijujiro.
Oni Jujiro looked at the Thunder Axe, which was similar to his own black axe, flying towards him, and at the same time he felt the horror of this ball. After all, this was the same skill as his own black axe. So Oni Jujiro held the racket tightly with both hands and caught the flying tennis ball.
The ball hit Kijujiro’s racket and a huge crash sounded, echoing throughout the stadium.
Kijujiro’s hands holding the racket trembled, and he subconsciously lowered his head, only to see the tennis ball covered by a purple-blue light with lightning. Kijujiro’s face changed, and he found that Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe was stronger than his own black axe.
Because the power contained in Mifune Souma’s Thunder Axe is too terrifying, and it also carries paralyzing lightning. These combined together make the Thunder Axe even more powerful.
The terrifying force plus the paralyzing lightning made Onijujiro’s hands holding the racket go numb, and the racket slipped out of his hands.
The tennis ball fell and the racket was knocked flying and hit the ground.
15-0!
Mifune Soumasa scores again!
“The power of the Thunder Axe has reached such a level!”
Kijujiro looked at the racket on the ground and saw that most of the strings on the racket were twisted and there were traces of burning on the racket. It could no longer be used. All of this was caused by the terrifying power of the Thunder Axe and the accompanying lightning.
The game continued and Mifune So was preparing to serve.
Kijujiro took a deep breath, half squatted and leaned forward, holding the racket tightly with both hands, ready to fight back.
The tennis ball flew high into the air, Mifune Souma bent his knees, and then jumped suddenly.
The inertia of falling and the strength of the arm rushed towards the tennis ball together. The tennis ball was hit by Mifune Soumasa’s huge force, and the entire ball became an ellipse, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air and shooting out.
Before Kijujiro could react, he felt the ground tremble.
Kijujiro looked down and saw the tennis ball hitting his feet and spinning continuously. The ball clearly contained great power, but it did not bounce up.
Kijujiro frowned, murmured softly, then raised his racket, ready to fight back.
But Kijujiro found that the speed of the tennis ball’s rotation gradually slowed down and finally stopped.
“Hmm? The tennis… tennis stopped?”
Kijujiro was stunned, looking at the tennis ball on the ground with disbelief in his eyes.
“It clearly contains powerful force and has such a terrifying impact, why didn’t it bounce?”
Kijujiro had never seen such a strange ball. Normally, the stronger the rotation of the ball, the faster and more powerful its bounce would be. However, Mifune Soumasa’s ball was completely against common sense.
“Huh~”
Onijujiro took a deep breath. It was the first time he encountered a master as powerful as Mifune Soumasa. While Onijujiro was solemn, he also felt a little excited. The arm that was holding the racket also subconsciously increased its strength.
Mifune Soumasa served again.
The tennis ball flashed at an incredible speed, and with a flash of lightning, the ball disappeared from people’s sight.
“What a fast speed!”
Kijujiro’s eyes narrowed, and even with his careful gaze, he could only see the trajectory of the ball.
“Don’t even think about it!”
Onijujiro roared, bent his legs, and then jumped suddenly. His body rushed to the landing point of the tennis ball almost instantly. The racket was covered with a purple-black light. The tennis ball that had disappeared appeared on Onijujiro’s racket. As he swung the racket, the ball flew back.
“Black Battle Axe!!!”
The roars echoed back and forth, and the tennis ball flew backwards.
“In that case, I can only reciprocate, Ghost Lord!”
Mifune Soumasa smiled easily, looked at the flying black battle axe, and once again used his thunder battle axe to meet the attack.
A huge crash was heard, the tennis ball flashed, and the Thunder Axe reappeared, flying towards Kijujiro and running through the entire court.
“drink!”
With a loud shout, Kijujiro stomped his right foot on the ground, put his hands on the racket shaft, and swung it hard, trying to hit the ball back with a powerful swing.
The powerful Thunder Axe hit Kijujiro’s racket, and then was knocked away by Kijujiro. Unfortunately, the tennis ball did not score any points after it rushed out, but hit the net and did not pass the net. Kijujiro failed to break Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe!
“Not bad, Ghost King, you can actually strike back at my Thunder Axe!”
Mifune Soumasa said with a smile. He was not surprised to see Kijujiro hitting back with his Thunder Axe, because Mifune Soumasa, who had read the original Prince of Tennis, knew that Kijujiro was a player with super strength who could smash the opponent’s wrist with one blow when playing basketball.
“continue!”
There was a burning desire in Kijujiro’s eyes. He was not disappointed by the loss of points. Instead, he became even more excited. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a battle that required him to give his all. Fighting against a master as powerful as Mifune Soumasa was an exhilarating feeling that Kijujiro enjoyed extremely.
Mifune Somasa continued to serve.
And Kijujiro did not hold back and used the black battle axe whenever he had the chance to fight against Mifune Soumasa. Kijujiro knew how terrifying Mifune Soumasa was and did not dare to show any mercy.
Facing Kijujiro’s black battle axe, Mifune Soumasa also fought back with his own thunder battle axe.
A huge roar continued to explode on the tennis court, and the purple-blue light and the purple-black light continued to intertwine.
Although Kijujiro fought back with the Thunder Axe, the power of the Thunder Axe continued to increase as Mifune Soumasa’s strength increased.
A purple-blue light passed by Kijujiro and hit the ground behind him heavily.
The score is 2-0.
Kijujiro was panting. Just now, he had been using the black battle axe to fight against Mifune Soumasa’s thunder battle axe, which had consumed a lot of his physical strength.
Such a competition is no longer just a competition, but also a test of a player’s physical fitness, reaction ability, attacking ability, will and wisdom.
18. Light Ball-Destruction (Old Version)
Onijujiro was panting because he had been constantly using the black battle axe to fight against Mifune Soumasa’s thunder battle axe, which had consumed a lot of his physical strength. So Onijujiro was now exhausted and sweating.
Kijujiro sat by the tennis court to rest, drinking water and replenishing his lost water and energy.
Kijujiro looked up at Mifune Soumasa and found that Mifune Soumasa’s breathing was very steady. Although there were traces of sweat on his body, it was not much. Unlike himself, he was sweating profusely, breathing a little rapidly, and his body was extremely tired.
“What a terrifying physical fitness!”
Seeing this scene, Kijujiro said in a daze that he did not expect Mifune Soumasa’s physical fitness would be so terrifying. Kijujiro drank water and suppressed the helplessness in his heart.
In the third game, Mifune Soumasa served.
As the game progressed, the score between the two sides gradually widened.
3-0!
4-0!
5-0!
Fifteen minutes later, Mifune Soumasa was leading with an overwhelming advantage. As long as he won one more round, Mifune Soumasa would win the game.
In these five games, although Onijujiro did score a point, but what is the difference between that and not scoring a point? Moreover, these five games lasted only fifteen minutes from the beginning to now. It can be said that Onijujiro was completely crushed by Mifune Soumasa.
“Mifune Soumasa’s strength is really terrifying!” Kijujiro said with some disappointment in his heart. It was the first time that Kijujiro was beaten so badly.
Kijujiro took a deep breath, calmed himself, and prepared for the final round of the game.
The last game, it was Onijujiro’s serve.
Kijujiro threw the ball, jumped up, and slammed the racket in his hand down hard. The tennis ball turned into an afterimage and flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Munemasa quickly came to the tennis ball, the muscles of the arm holding the racket began to move, the racket made a crackling sound, and then he swung it to the extreme.
There was a terrible roar, and the racket hit the tennis ball fiercely.
The huge force surged towards the tennis ball like a tidal wave. The ball was hit hard and the body of the ball shrank instantly, and then whistled.
The tennis ball turned into a golden light and flew quickly towards Onijujiro. Then, before Onijujiro could react, it flew past him quickly.
It hit the ground behind Onijujiro.
Mifune Somasa scored, the score was 15-0.
Mifune Somasa scored, the score was 30-0.
Mifune Somasa scored, the score was 40-0.
There is only one ball left for Mifune Soumasa to win the game. As long as he scores one ball, it will be over.
Kijujiro served again, and the tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
“It’s time to end the game,” Mifune Souma thought as he looked at the flying tennis ball.
Mifune So was about to end the game with this ball, so he prepared to use his world-class skills, the Light Hit-Destruction, to end the game. At the same time, he also wanted to let Oni Jujiro see the world-class power and the wonders of this world.
“Ghost Lord, I will let you see the wonders of the world! Let you see what world-class strength is!”
“The next move is a world-class skill I created myself, called Light Strike-Destruction. Ghost King, please pay attention. If you don’t pay attention, you will die.”
Mifune Somasa smiled slightly and spoke, then he swung his racket vigorously at the flying tennis ball.
At this moment, Kijujiro’s eyes shrank into needles.
Because the tennis ball on Mifune Souma’s racket actually emitted a dazzling light.
The ball…..glows!!!
Light Strike – Destruction!
World class stunts!
“Ghost Lord, this is… world class!!!”
A huge noise resounded in everyone’s eardrums, and a golden light flew out, and a tennis ball with the light of the sun and the breath of destruction went straight towards Kijujiro.
The terrifying momentum, destructive power, and extreme threat made Onijujiro’s eyes shrink into needles.
“This is Mifune Soumasa’s world-class skill, Light Shot-Destruction!?”
The terrifying air wave hit Onijujiro, causing his long hair and clothes to dance wildly. The extreme momentum made it difficult for him to breathe.
Looking at the tennis ball getting closer and closer, Onijujiro roared with a ferocious look. Facing this ball, he did not retreat, but exerted all his strength to hit the ball.
Boom!
A terrible explosion echoed throughout the court. Kijujiro caught the terrible ball, but an invisible force penetrated the racket and went behind him.
The wall behind Onijujiro exploded violently, and countless debris flew and hit his back. At the same time, a strong air wave hit him, causing him to stagger, his facial muscles twisted, and the almost tearing pain in his arms made him almost unable to hold the racket.
But Oni Jujiro never thought of giving up. Carrying the expectations of the children, he absolutely could not fall down, and his goal was to become the number one tennis player in Japan!
The terrible gust of air raged and finally passed through his cheek, tearing a gash on his face, and blood gushed out.
“Go back!”
With a roar, Kijujiro fought back with all his might, but the power of Mifune Soumasa’s shot was far beyond his imagination. Although he was able to hold on and even wanted to fight back, his racket could not withstand such terrible force.
The racket broke and the tennis ball flew out.
The earth shook violently and dust flew up.
As the light ball falls.
Mifune Soumasa scored, the total score was 6-0, and the game ended.
“Hoohoo~”
After the game, Onijujiro sat on the ground, gasping for breath, sweat dripping from his forehead, his arms shaking. It was obvious that the ball just now had caused him great harm. He saw the big hole behind him out of the corner of his eye. Although he didn’t want to admit it, he had to admit how terrible this ball was.
“This is… world class!”
“I didn’t expect that he was actually a world-class expert. No wonder I lost so miserably.”
“I didn’t expect that I would be crushed by Mifune Munemasa just like Tanejima Shuji. His strength is really terrifying.”
“And he’s already a world-class expert in his first year. His talent is truly terrifying.”
Kijujiro looked at the broken racket and the court behind him that was almost destroyed by the light ball and was shocked beyond words. He was shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s light ball, but he was also shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s world-class strength and his terrifying talent.
“But…this world is really exciting!” At the same time, Onigirijujiro thought excitedly.
“Kimi, you lost, so come with me to Rikkai University!”
At this time, Mifune Somasa walked over and came to the front of the net. Looking at Kijujiro who was sitting on the ground and gasping for breath, a sincere expression appeared on his face.
19. Onijushirou joins Rikkai University (old version)
Upon hearing this, Kijujiro raised his head slightly, looked at Mifune Soumasa’s sincere expression, and did not reply.
After a full minute, he slowly spoke: “Then I’ll give you more guidance in the future, Minister Zong Zheng!”
Mifune Soumasa’s sincere look and terrifying strength impressed Kijujiro.
Becoming a member of such a world-class strongman is not an insult to him, and following him can help him improve his strength faster.
Moreover, Mifune Soumasa did not treat him as a subordinate, but as a companion and a trustworthy teammate.
“Kimi-kun, Rikkai University welcomes you!”
Mifune Soumasa showed a bright smile on his face and stretched out his hand to help Onijujiro up. Mifune Soumasa knew that he had succeeded. He changed Onijujiro’s original trajectory and allowed him to leave Okayama Prefecture ahead of time.
Now that Kijujiro has joined Rikkai University, the strength of Rikkai University will surely increase further and become completely impervious to all blind spots.
Even when facing Mu Zhi Teng, he can still defeat him!
A week later.
“Dear passengers, our destination is Kanagawa Prefecture, the final stop of this train. Please be prepared to get off the train in an orderly and civilized manner!”
On the high-speed train, the broadcast sounded and passengers began to pack their luggage.
Mifune Soumasa had no luggage, so he got up and walked directly to the door. Onijujiro also followed Mifune Soumasa to Kanagawa Prefecture. The reason why Mifune Soumasa and the others returned to Kanagawa Prefecture a week later was because Onijujiro still had to go through the withdrawal and enrollment procedures, which took about a week to complete.
After getting off the car, Mifune Soumasa and Kijujiro went straight to the school. After arriving at the school to register Kijujiro, Mifune Soumasa went to the tennis club of Rikkai University with Kijujiro.
“minister!!!”
“The Minister is back!!”
“Minister, who is that person behind you? He’s so tall!”
When the members of the Rikkai University Tennis Club saw Mifune Soumasa coming back, they stopped training and looked at him. They also saw Mifune Soumasa walking in with a burly man, and they kept talking.
“Let me introduce you all, this is Oni Jujiro, you will be a member of the Rikkai University Tennis Club from now on.”
Mifune Somasa introduced Kijujiro to the members of Rikkai University.
“Please give me your guidance in the future!”
Kijujiro looked at all the members of Rikkai University and said in a deep voice.
The members of Rikkai University did not dare to underestimate Kijujiro.
Since Kijujiro is able to be personally led by such a powerful person as Mifune Soumasa, his strength is definitely beyond doubt.
Sure enough, in the following training, the strength displayed by Onijujiro was incredible not only to the ordinary team members, but even the regular players like Shujima Tanejima were amazed.
Everyone was curious about where Mifune Soumasa found Onijujiro from, and why he was so powerful.
The next morning, at the Rikkai University Tennis Club.
Onijujiro is playing against Rikkai University’s starting player Tomoya Aso. Onijujiro wants to challenge Aso Tomoya’s starting player position. The tennis court is surrounded by Rikkai University players watching.
Before Aso Tomoya could react, the tennis ball flew past him and hit the ground behind him.
“Kijujiro scores, total score 5-0”
Mifune Somasa, the referee of this match, spoke loudly.
“How amazing!!”
“Aso Tomoya didn’t even score a single point. You know, Aso Tomoya is a regular player in our Rikkai University. He’s not just an ordinary player!”
“This Oni Jujiro is so powerful! He is indeed the one invited by the Minister himself!”
The players of Rikkai University who were watching were all surprised by the strength of Kijujiro. They did not expect that Aso Tomoya, a regular player of Rikkai University, would be beaten by Kijujiro without any chance to fight back and be directly crushed.
“It seems that Onijūjiro is very powerful, on the same level as me and Tanejima Shuji.”
Even Echizen Ryuga who was standing by was slightly shocked by Onijūjiro’s strength.
“I didn’t expect that Oni Jujiro is so powerful. His strength is almost the same as mine and Byodoin. Where did Munemasa find this monster? Oni Jujiro is so powerful, but why haven’t I heard of this person before?”
Shuji Tanejima also murmured in shock.
“This demon Jujiro is too strong! No, I can’t lose. I’m the regular candidate of Rikkai University!”
Aso Tomoya said unwillingly.
After the break, the match between Onijujiro and Aso Tomoya started again, with Onijujiro serving.
The tennis ball turned into a golden light and flew quickly towards Tomoya Aso, and then, before Aso Tomoya could react, it flew past him quickly.
It hit the ground behind Tomoya Aso.
Kijujiro scored, the score was 15-0.
Onijūjiro scores, the score is 30-0.
Kijujiro scored, the score was 40-0.
Riki Jujiro won the game, with only one ball left. As long as he scored one goal, it would be over.
Kijujiro served again, and the tennis ball flew quickly towards Aso Tomoya, and then, before Aso Tomoya could react, it flew past him quickly.
“The game is over, Onijujiro wins, the score is 6-0”
The referee’s voice of Mifune Somasa sounded, announcing the result of the match. It took Kijujiro less than fifteen minutes to defeat Aso Tomoya. From that moment on, Kijujiro replaced Aso Tomoya and became the new starter of Rikkai University.
Mifune Soshin shouted loudly to all the members of Rikkai University, and all the members immediately came before Soshin.
“I have two things to say. The first is about the starting lineup. I believe everyone has watched the game just now and everyone should know the result. So I declare that Oni Jujiro will replace Aso Tomoya as the new Rikkai University starting lineup.”
“So the new list of Rikkai University’s regulars is: Mifune Munemasa, Echizen Ryuga, Tanejima Shuji, Oni Jujiro, Mutsu Yuuma, Mutsu Yuho, Mitsugaya Akuto, Suzuki Ichiro. These eight are Rikkai University’s new regulars.”
“The second thing is that the national qualifiers will be held in half a month!”
“Everyone probably knows how strong the other teams are, so we must not let our guard down.”
Mifune Sosho spoke, and then took out a stack of training plans: “This is the training plan I prepared for you. Everyone, take a look. From now on, you should train according to this training plan!”
After saying that, Mifune Souma handed the training plan to each team member.
When the team members saw the plan, their eyes lit up immediately, because the plan prepared by Mifune Souzheng was much more detailed than before, and it also pointed out the shortcomings of each team member and how to make up for them.
“Okay, everyone, disperse. Don’t forget about the national qualifiers in half a month.”
“Yes, Minister Zongzheng!”
As time passed, the team members trained in an orderly manner according to the plan formulated by Mifune Soumasa. The overall strength of Rikkai University was also rapidly improving, and Kijujiro gradually integrated into the entire team. His powerful strength impressed the team members.
20. Regional qualifiers begin (old version)
Early May.
Half a month has passed since Onijujiro became the regular draft pick.
“Everyone gather!”
Mifune Soumasa shouted to all the members of Rikkai University. After hearing it, all the members of Rikkai University immediately stopped training, quickly came in front of Mifune Soumasa, and then lined up.
“Tomorrow is the day for the regional preliminaries to begin. It is also the time for Rikkai University to show our strength to schools across the country. I hope everyone is ready.”
“Also, it’s time to avenge Makunoteng for the defeat in last year’s national competition!”
“Moreover, our goal this year is not only to win the Kanto Championship, but also to win the National Championship. This is a goal we must achieve this year. Everyone should not relax and work hard for this goal.”
Mifune Somasa looked at all the members of Rikkai University and said in a deep voice.
The regional preliminaries will begin soon. As the overlord of the entire Kanagawa Prefecture, Rikkai University High School is simply unrivaled by any other school. This regional preliminaries is just a formality.
Although the final result of the regional preliminaries had already been determined, Mifune Soumasa still took it very seriously. After all, this was the beginning of Rikkai University showing its strength to schools across the country. Moreover, Mifune Soumasa was also afraid that Rikkai University would capsize.
“Yes, Minister!”
Every player of Rikkai University responded loudly, and the regular players of Rikkai University were even more excited, as they had been waiting for this day for a long time.
They have been very sad since losing to Mu Zhiteng in the national competition finals last year. After all, that was the closest they had ever been to winning the national championship, but they were blocked by Mu Zhiteng. So they always hope to return to that arena again and win the honor of national championship.
Shuji Taneshima, the deputy director of the tennis club, looked at the high-spirited Mifune Soumasa in front of him and sighed in his heart. This year, with the addition of masters like Mifune Soumasa, the Rikkai University tennis club has become really different and stronger. With these masters, winning the national championship may not be a problem.
After seeing the reactions of the team members, Mifune Soumasa nodded with satisfaction, then let the team members go to training and kept the regular players.
“Everyone, the regional qualifiers will be held tomorrow. I called you here to discuss the candidates for this competition.” Mifune Munemasa explained his purpose.
“Rikkai University is the dominant force in the entire Kanagawa, and no school can compete with us. We can just send a few people to compete in this regional qualifier. As long as we win three games, we will win.” Tanejima Shuji, as the former director and current vice-director of the tennis club, has already participated in a regional qualifier, so he naturally knows it very well.
“It’s good to be confident, but you also have to be careful not to fall into the gutter.”
“I think this is how we’ll arrange the roster for this match.”
“Double number one is Yuuma and Yuubu, doubles number two is Akatsuki and Suzuki, singles number three is Ryuga, singles number two is Oni, singles number one is Taneshima, and as for the substitute, I will be the one.” Mifune Souma stated his plan.
“Mong Zheng, you’re not going to play?” Echizen Ryuga was a little surprised.
“Well, I won’t play this time. Let’s talk about it in the next game.” Mifune Souma nodded. This is the advantage of having many masters. You can arrange it however you want.
“Everyone, let’s arrange the roster for this match like this. I think everyone has no objection. If you have no objection, let’s train separately.”
Mifune Soumasa looked at the seven candidates in front of him and saw that they all had no objection, so he finally made the decision.
Early the next morning.
The annual National Junior High School Tennis League has finally begun. Schools across the country must go through district qualifiers, metropolitan competitions, and regional competitions before they can advance to the national competition.
All the members of Rikkai University gathered together early in the morning because they knew what day it was.
Mifune Soumasa didn’t say anything. He waved his hand and led the team on the school bus to the competition venue.
“It’s Rikkai University!”
“Is it the overlord of Kanto, Rikkai University, which was the national runner-up last year?”
Someone exclaimed, and everyone looked over there. A group of people wearing khaki uniforms were walking towards them.
The aura of this group of people is very strong, especially the boy who is in the lead. His cold gaze even makes some people dare not look him in the face. As the overlords of Kanagawa, their aura is naturally incomparable to that of other schools.
This group of people was Mifune Soumasa and his group. Their arrival instantly attracted the attention of the people around them.
After all, Rikkai University High School is the overlord of Kanagawa. Having won the Kanto Championship for more than ten consecutive times, they have no rivals in the Kanagawa area. This also makes Rikkai University very famous in Kanto and even the whole country.
“That’s right! I heard that they have become even stronger this year.”
“I heard that this year, Rikkai University has added several powerful masters, two of whom are freshmen. One of them, Mifune Soumasa, defeated Rikkai University’s former president, the nation’s No. 2 player, Tajima Shuji, with a score of 6-0 and became Rikkai University’s new president.”
“This can’t be true! He defeated Shuji Tanejima in his first year and became the president. If this is true, then this year’s Rikkai University is really terrifying.”
As the overlord of Kanagawa, Rikkai University High School’s every move will naturally attract the attention of other schools. They have already known about the changes in Rikkai University’s tennis team.
Many people from other schools started talking about it, because Rikkai University had become even more terrifying this year.
“As expected of Rikkai University, the overlord of Kanagawa, the momentum of their tennis team’s regular players is too strong!”
“The one leading the group is the first-year president of Rikkai University High School, Mifune Munemasa? What a terrifying aura!”
Many people were talking about it, and they felt that this year’s Rikkai University was really terrifying.
Mifune Soumasa and the others did not care about these discussions. After all, they had heard too much about them.
“According to Yajiudou’s investigation, this year’s regional qualifiers are no different from last year. There are no particularly strong players emerging from each school. If nothing unexpected happens, we have already secured the championship of this regional qualifier,” said Mifune Soumasa with a smile.
“As long as we win the first three games, we will win. So, this competition depends on you,” Mifune Munemasa said to Tanejima Shuji and other regular players.
…..
“The match between Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School and Tianlan Middle School will begin. Please invite the contestants from both teams to enter the venue.” Such a voice suddenly sounded over the radio.
“It looks like the competition is about to start, let’s go in.” Mifune Souma nodded to everyone.
Tianlan Middle School has always been the runner-up in this area. The leader is Rikkai University. As long as Rikkai University Affiliated High School exists, Tianlan Middle School will never be able to make a comeback.
21. Win the Qualifying Championship (Old Version)
The match between Rikkai University Affiliated High School and Tianlan Junior High School began. The first match was doubles No. 2. Rikkai University sent out the combination of Akuto and Suzuki.
“Now we have the No. 2 doubles match between Rikkai University High School and Tianlan Middle School. The winner will be decided in one game. Rikkai University Akuto and Suzuki will serve.” With the referee’s order, the real game finally began.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa was sitting in the coaching seat on the court. Since the Rikkai University Tennis Club currently had no coach, Mifune Soumasa would take on the role of coach.
Yajiudou served the ball, and the yellow tennis ball seemed to turn into a beam of light, so fast that it was hard to keep up with. The second doubles player from Tianlan Middle School lost the first point before he could even react.
“Bang!”
The sound of the tennis ball falling to the ground finally woke up the stunned No. 2 doubles player from Tianlan Middle School. The serve was so fast that they didn’t even see the opponent’s serve before the opponent scored a point.
“You must be kidding! How is it possible to serve so fast?”
“It was so fast that my eyes couldn’t react!”
“Mitsuya Akuto is indeed a national-level expert. He can actually serve like this!”
Yajiudou’s fast serve surprised all the spectators around. They had never seen such a fast serve before.
“This is Ajiuto’s extremely fast serve. It’s natural that those people didn’t receive it.” All the players of Rikkai University didn’t care about it at all. There were not many people in the entire Rikkai University Tennis Club who could receive Ajiuto’s extremely fast serve. How could the players from a school like Tianlan Junior High School who couldn’t even make a breakthrough in major competitions deal with it?
In addition to being proficient in data tennis, Akuto Mitsutaya is also very strong in his own right, otherwise Akuto Mitsutaya would not have become a national-level master.
In order to save time, Mitsutani Akuto continued to hit three extremely fast serves. After all, facing such a weak opponent, there was no need for Mitsutani Akuto to collect data. He won the first game directly with four aces, and only one minute had passed since the end of the first game.
The strength displayed by Mitsuya Akuto shocked the onlookers. After all, this was the first time they witnessed the power of a national-level master.
The next few games were no surprise. The strength displayed by Akuto Mitsutani and Suzuki completely crushed the second doubles player of Tanarashi Junior High School. In the six games, they did not get a single point from Sanada and his team.
“The game is over, the score is 6:0, Rikkai University High School wins this round.” The referee’s voice sounded.
After winning the game, Akuto Mitsutani and Suzuki calmly walked off the court, without even glancing at the second doubles player from Tianlan Middle School. This match was just a warm-up for the two of them. After all, their opponents were too weak and it could only serve as a warm-up.
“Good performance,” Mifune Soumasa looked at Mitsutaya Akuto and Suzuki with a smile. It took them less than ten minutes from the start to the end of the entire game. This shows how powerful Rikkai University is.
“It’s nothing, I just say that the opponent is too weak,” said Akuto Mitsutani with a smile.
“Okay, you guys go down and have a rest. The next game will start soon.” Mifune Somasa nodded to the two of them. Mitsugaya Akuto and Suzuki immediately turned around and left the court, while Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma entered the court with their rackets.
After the doubles match No. 2, it was the doubles match No. 1. The doubles players sent by Rikkai University this time were the brothers Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma. Everyone watching knew that they were Rikkai University’s ace doubles players, and they were also national-level doubles players. Their doubles strength was No. 1 in the junior high school world.
As for this number one doubles match, Mifune Souma knew the result without even watching the game. In terms of doubles strength, no one in the entire junior high school world would be a match for Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma. Dealing with a third-rate kid like Tanarashi Junior High School was as easy as drinking water.
As soon as the doubles No. 1 match started, Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma opened fire at full force. The doubles No. 1 from the opponent Tianlan Middle School could not withstand the repeated attacks from Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma.
Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma didn’t even use their doubles skills. They just used the most basic tennis to instantly defeat the number one doubles player of Tianlan Middle School.
“We give up!” Tianlan Middle School’s number one doubles player shouted tremblingly.
They didn’t want to be abused anymore. They knew how strong the national-level doubles pair of Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma were, so they didn’t want to compete anymore. Because of the repeated attacks from Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma, they developed a fear of tennis in their hearts.
It was not surprising that the number one doubles player of Lanqiu Middle School gave up. After all, looking at the situation on the court, you can tell that even if they didn’t give up, the final result would still be a failure.
Winning two games in a row also made people from other schools see the power of Rikkai University.
“It seems that the Rikkai University Tennis Club is still as terrifying as ever!”
“There should be no suspense in this match. Rikkai University is indeed the overlord of Kanagawa!”
“Rikkai University is really scary this year!”
Many people sighed, and some even looked at Rikkai University with complicated expressions. The strength displayed by Rikkai University really made them despair. They had no chance of winning at all.
After the two doubles matches, the next match was singles No. 3. As long as Rikkai University won one more match, they would win the match. This time, the singles No. 3 sent by Rikkai University was Echizen Ryuga.
Others may not know Echizen Ryuga’s strength, but Mifune Soumasa knows it very clearly. Mifune Soumasa knows that Echizen Ryuga’s current strength is the same as Taneshima Shuji, a top national master. He has reached the top national level in just his first year, which shows how powerful Echizen Ryuga’s talent is.
As far as Mifune Soumasa knew, he was the only one in the entire junior high school tennis world who could surpass Echizen Ryuga. Even Kijujiro, Tanejima Shuji, and Byodoin Phoenix were only on par with him. Perhaps Kijujiro was a little stronger.
After all, Onijujiro’s current strength is infinitely close to the world class, which is the so-called half-step world class, so Onijujiro may be stronger than Echizen Ryuga.
“Ryoma, it’s your turn, finish the game quickly!” Mifune Somasa looked at Echizen Ryoma with a smile.
“I understand, Munemasa,” Echizen Ryuya responded with a smile.
As soon as Ryuga Echizen came on the court, he showed his strong strength and the singles No. 3 match was over quickly.
In the match between Rikkai University and Tianlan Junior High School, Rikkai University won the game easily, and let everyone know how terrible Rikkai University is.
The first game of the regional qualifiers is over, and the final will be held in the afternoon to decide the champion of the regional qualifiers. However, everyone knows that the champion of this final will still be Rikkai University.
The afternoon games went as expected, with Rikkai University winning the first three games with a score of 6:0 each, and becoming the champion of the regional qualifiers. The next game was the Kanagawa region competition, and as long as they won, they would be able to participate in this year’s Kanto tournament.
There is one month left after the regional qualifiers, and the next county tournament will be held in a month. However, as the overlord of the entire Kanto region, the Rikkai University Tennis Club does not have it easy, and their daily time is spent on training.
22. County Competition Begins (Old Version)
Time passed day by day as Mifune Soumasa and his team continued to train, and in the blink of an eye, the county competition was about to begin.
The county tournament is the largest competition in the entire Kanagawa Prefecture. Only the first and second place winners of the regional qualifiers are eligible to participate, and only the champion and runner-up of the county tournament are eligible to participate in the Kanto tournament.
Before the county tournament began, since a month had passed since the last main draw trials, the Rikkai University Tennis Club once again held a main draw trials to decide the candidates for the county tournament.
This time the main selection trials were also extremely fierce, because the Rikkai University Tennis Club emphasizes strength above all else and winners are respected. As long as you have the ability, you can become a main selection and represent the school to participate in the competition.
The players of Rikkai University’s tennis club have all been looking forward to this day. They have been training hard for a month just to show their strength today and win a starting spot.
The players who were originally selected will naturally have to maintain their status and not let others take it away.
After a day of fierce competition, the result of the main selection tournament is finally out. The main selection players such as Mifune Souma, Echizen Ryuga, Tanejima Shuji, and Oni Jujiro have all won, with each game ending with 6:0, and each game ending in the shortest time, so Rikkai University’s main selection remains the same as before.
After all, the strength of Mifune Soumasa and his team is still too strong for the ordinary members of Rikkai University.
“The county tournament will be held tomorrow. Now I will announce the players for this tournament. Doubles number two will be composed of Akatsuki and Tanejima, doubles number one will be composed of Yuuho and Yuma, singles number three will be Echizen Ryuga, singles number two will be Oni, and singles number one will be me. As for Suzuki, he will be a substitute this time.” Mifune Souma announced the list of players for this tournament.
“Although the competition list is like this, the county competition still requires only winning the first three games to advance. So it is not certain whether Oni, who is the second singles player, and I, who is the first singles player, will have the opportunity to play.” Mifune Munemasa said with a smile as he looked at Tanejima and others.
What’s more, what Mifune Souma said was true. After all, in Kanagawa Prefecture, Rikkai University’s strength is enough to crush other schools.
“It’s decided. Today’s training ends here. Everyone go back and prepare for tomorrow’s county competition. Disband!”
Mifune Soumasa said that tomorrow is the county competition, and he doesn’t want to let Tanejima and other regular players go to training today. The most important thing is to face tomorrow’s game with the best attitude.
The next morning, at the Kanagawa Prefecture competition.
At the entrance of the stadium, all the people from Rikkai University gathered here. Not only the main players came today, but other members of the tennis club also came here. They came to watch the game and cheer for their own main players.
The Rikkai University Tennis Club has always been famous for its rigor, so it would naturally not happen that a regular player would be late.
When all the starting players arrived, Mifune Souma handed the roster to the staff, and then led all the starting players into the competition venue.
The level of the county competition is naturally different from that of the regional qualifiers. The schools participating in the county competition are the first and second place in each region. However, even so, in the eyes of Rikkai University, there is nothing worth worrying about.
Rikkai University has been the long-time overlord of the Kanagawa region, and no other school in the entire Kanagawa region can rival it. It can be said that the result of today’s county competition is already very clear.
“Look, it’s a player from Rikkai University!”
“As expected of a school known as the overlord of Kanto, their players are so powerful.”
“I heard that Rikkai University has become even stronger this year!”
As Mifune Soumasa and his companions walked along, the discussions around them never stopped. They were all talking about Rikkai University. After all, Rikkai University was the overlord of Kanagawa, and a superior existence to them.
However, Mifune Soumasa and the others didn’t care at all. They didn’t care what they were saying. Their mission today was to win the game. Moreover, they had seen this kind of scene many times and were used to it.
Inoue from Professional Tennis Monthly also came today. He is very interested in Rikkai University. He heard that this year’s captain of Rikkai University’s tennis club is a freshman, and this new freshman captain also crushed the former captain, the national No. 2 player Shuji Gojima, with a score of 6-0. This made Inoue even more interested in Rikkai University.
When Inoue saw Rikkai University, he thought of his favorite school, Seigakuen in Tokyo. Nowadays, Seigakuen is getting worse every year.
In the past, Seigaku had produced a professional player like Echizen Nanjiro, and was once a famous tennis school in Tokyo. However, it has been getting worse and worse in recent years, always lingering in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament and unable to even enter the Kanto Tournament.
Inoue thought that the first-year players of Seigaku were still picking up balls, while the first-year players of Rikkai University could already become team captains. The gap was really too big.
“Oh!” Inoue couldn’t help but sigh. The once famous tennis school, Seigakuen, is now on the decline and seems to never rise again.
The county competition started soon. Rikkai University’s first game was against Taiwa Junior High School. Taiwa Junior High School did not have any strong players. All the strong players in Kanagawa were at Rikkai University.
After all, Rikkai University’s title as the overlord of Kanto and its principle of strength above all else have attracted many powerful players from Kanagawa to join. This explains why all the powerful players from Kanagawa are in Rikkai University.
The first game was doubles number two. The players sent by Rikkai University were the pair of Mitsutani Akutsu and Tanejima Shuji. It can be said that Rikkai University now only has a fixed doubles combination of the Mutsu brothers, and the other doubles pair can only put two singles players together to form a doubles.
In fact, this is very disadvantageous. Doubles is not like singles. What is more important in doubles is cooperation and tacit understanding. Perhaps they can defeat ordinary players with their own strong strength, but if they encounter a strong doubles combination, for example, a doubles combination that has mastered synchronization, then no matter how strong the individual is, they will be defeated.
Mifune Soumasa also knew that Rikkai University’s current weakness was doubles, but Mifune Soumasa didn’t have a good solution.
But fortunately, Rikkai University’s singles strength is very strong now. If two strong singles players form a doubles team, winning the game will not be a problem as long as they don’t encounter top doubles combinations.
“Akuto, Tanedo, don’t lose,” Mifune Soumasa said with a smile as he looked at Tanedo Shuji and the other man.
“Mong Zheng, don’t worry, we won’t lose,” Tanedo Shuji replied speechlessly.
“That depends on your performance.” Mifune Somasa smiled faintly, but he was still very confident about Mitsutani Akuto and Tanejima Shuji.
After all, Mitsutani Akutsu and Taneshima Shuji are both national-level masters, and Taneshima Shuji is at the top of the national level. Even if they can’t play doubles, their personal strength can make up for this shortcoming.
What’s more, the school opposite is just a third-rate school.
23. Win the County Competition (Old Version)
At the beginning of the game, the doubles players of Taihe Junior High School did not expect that Rikkai University would send two national-level masters, Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsuya, to compete right from the start.
You have to know that both Shuji Taneshima and Akuto Mitsugaya are famous masters even in the country, and Shuji Taneshima is No. 2 in the country, which makes the doubles players of Taihe Middle School feel afraid.
However, the doubles players of Taihe Middle School relaxed when they thought that Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsuya had never played doubles before. After all, this was a doubles match. Even if you were strong in singles, it didn’t matter. Thinking of this, they were suddenly filled with confidence.
Rikkai University has been suppressing them for years, and they have always wanted to take revenge. Now that they have found the opportunity, they naturally want to repay it well.
Tanejima Shuji and Mitsugaya Akuto also saw their confident look, but did not say anything. They still looked calm and composed, as if they did not take the two clowns opposite them seriously at all.
The reactions of Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsuya made the two people from Taihe Middle School even more resentful, and they planned to teach them a lesson later.
“The game begins! Taihe Middle School serves.” The referee gave the order.
“Rikkai University, take that, bullet serve!” the number two doubles player from Taihe Middle School shouted.
The so-called “bullet serve” at Taihe Middle School is actually just a fast serve. Although the name sounds powerful, it is just a faster serve.
Taihe Junior High School was very pleased with themselves, thinking that their “bullet serve” that Rikkai University had no chance of returning was directly returned by Mitsutaya Akuto, landing in their court and winning the first point.
“15-0!”
“How is it possible? How could my bullet serve be returned?” The number two doubles player from Taihe Middle School was hit hard by this ball. Their own special moves were broken, which made them panic and they played in a panic without any plan.
“Too weak.” Mitsuya Akuto shook his head secretly. To deal with them, he didn’t even need his own data tennis ball.
Moreover, the players from Taihe Middle School were too vulnerable to attacks. They panicked just because their special moves were broken, and could only exert half of their original strength. Such a thing would never happen in their Rikkai University.
The No. 2 doubles player of Taihe Middle School lost their composure. As they lost point after point, they became more anxious. However, the more anxious they were, the worse they played. In the end, they were beaten badly by Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsuya, losing miserably with a score of 6:0.
“The game is over, the score is 6:0, Rikkai University wins this round.” The referee’s voice sounded.
After winning the game, Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsutani walked off the court. The game took the two of them less than fifteen minutes.
“Good job,” Mifune Soumasa looked at Tanejima Shuji and Mitsutaya Akuto with a smile.
“It’s nothing, it’s just that the players from Taihe School are too weak,” said Shuji Tanejima speechlessly.
“Okay, you guys go down and have a rest. The next game will start soon.” Mifune Somasa nodded to the two of them. Taneshima Shuji and Mitsutaya Akuto turned around and left the court, while Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma entered the court with their rackets.
“Yubu, Yuuma, this match is up to you,” Mifune Souma said to the two of them. He knew who would win the match without even watching it.
Although it is quite satisfying to watch your own players beat up players from other schools, the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, and the one-sided slaughter becomes boring after watching it for too long.
Rikkai University’s real rivals are still in the Kanto Tournament and the National Tournament, where they can find opponents who can match them.
“Leave it to us, Minister!”
The Mutsu brothers responded in unison, and then walked onto the game field together.
The number one doubles player at Taihe Middle School is also a pair of twins. Generally speaking, doubles composed of twins are better than other doubles combinations in terms of coordination and tacit understanding, but this also depends on each other’s strength.
Some doubles teams composed of twins are very strong. For example, the brothers Mutsu Yuuma and Mutsu Yuubu, not only have they achieved telepathy, they are almost in sync. Their doubles strength can be said to be among the best in the country.
However, the strength of some twin doubles combinations is extremely poor. For example, the twin pair from Taihe Middle School not only do not cooperate with each other, but sometimes they even scramble to receive the ball, which is a big taboo in doubles.
“Taihe Middle School is too weak!”
“It’s not that Taihe Junior High School is too weak, it’s that Rikkai University is too strong!”
Many spectators who were watching the game started discussing it.
“Yubu, let’s finish this quickly.” On the court, Mutsu Yuma said to Mutsu Yubu.
“OK”
Mutsu Yuho nodded. He also felt that there was no need to waste time here anymore because the opponent was too weak.
With the full firepower of Mutsu Yuuma and Mutsu Yuho, the game ended quickly. The final score was 6:0, and the whole game was over in just ten minutes.
In both doubles matches, Rikkai University won easily with a score of 6:0, which made others sigh that Rikkai University’s dominant position is still solid, and they were also shocked by the strength shown by Rikkai University.
The third singles match for No. 3 will begin soon. Mifune Soumasa does not have to worry about this third match, after all, the player on the field is Echizen Ryuga, a top national player.
This game was a complete massacre, 9 minutes. The game was over in just 9 minutes. The strength he showed was amazing.
“Echizen Ryuga’s strength is really amazing. He finished the game in just 9 minutes. This should be the fastest time so far!”
“As expected, he’s a first-year regular like the Buchou!”
The players of Rikkai University’s tennis club were all amazed.
Inoue from Professional Tennis Monthly was also a little surprised to hear this. Echizen Ryuga, who is so strong, is only a first-year student. Rikkai University is really full of talented people.
“That boy named Mifune Soumasa should be the strongest player in the Rikkai University tennis club. No, I should say he is the strongest player in the entire junior high school tennis world!”
Inoue also looked at Mifune Soumasa, the first-year captain who led the entire Rikkai University tennis club, and sighed.
Rikkai University won all three games, so there was no need to continue the remaining two games. Oni, who played second singles, and Mifune Souma, who played first singles, ultimately did not have a chance to play.
After winning the first game, Rikkai University maintained its previous style in the next few games, crushing all the opponents with its strong strength, and each game ended after three innings.
There was no school in the entire Kanagawa area that could stop Rikkai University, and as a result, Rikkai University easily won the county competition and qualified for the Kanto competition.
The Kanto Tournament will be held in a month, and everyone at Rikkai University is paying close attention to it.
Rikkai University has won the Kanto Championship for more than ten consecutive times, and they are determined to win the championship of this year’s Kanto Championship.
24. Echizen Ryuga’s Challenge (Old Version)
A week has passed since Rikkai University won the county championship. During this week, the players of Rikkai University have been training hard to prepare for the Kanto competition.
Mifune Soumasa was also training in tennis, practicing spot-kicks against the wall.
“Zongzheng, I heard from a ghost that your strength has… reached world-class level?”
At this time, Echizen Ryomasa quickly came to Mifune Soumasa’s side, looked at Mifune Soumasa with an expression of disbelief on his face, and said.
Just now, when Echizen Ryuga was training in sparring with Kijujiro, he suddenly heard Kijujiro say that Mifune Soumasa’s current strength has reached world-class level, and he was immediately shocked.
Then, Echizen Ryuga stopped his sparring training with Kijujiro and hurried to the place where Mifune Souma was training, asking Mifune Souma whether he had really reached world class level.
“Yes, that’s right!” Mifune Soumasa nodded and said, but Mifune Soumasa did not tell Echizen Ryoga that he was about to reach the world’s top level, as he was afraid that it would undermine Echizen Ryoga’s confidence.
“I didn’t expect you to really reach the world level!!” Echizen Ryuga was still a little shocked after hearing Mifune Soumasa’s affirmative answer.
Echizen Ryomasa always felt that even if Mifune Soumasa’s strength and talent were stronger than his, they would not be much stronger. He always thought that Mifune Soumasa’s strength was the same as his, both at the top of the national level.
But Echizen Ryuga did not expect that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had reached the world level. This shocked Echizen Ryuga and made him a little disappointed. He did not expect that his strength would lag so far behind Mifune Soumasa.
“Muneko, when did you reach world class?” Echizen Ryuga asked Mifune Muneko again.
“I achieved it before coming to Rikkai University,” replied Mifune Soumasa.
Echizen Ryuya took a deep breath and calmed his complicated emotions.
“Zongzheng, compete with me. I want to see how far I am from reaching the world-class level. Is that okay?”
After calming down, Echizen Ryuga said to Mifune Somasa.
Echizen Ryuga competed with Mifune Soshō. He wanted to know how big the gap was between his current strength and that of the world-class level.
“Okay.” Mifune Sosho thought for a while, then nodded and accepted Echizen Ryuga’s challenge.
“Since you want to compete, let me be the referee!” At this time, a rough voice sounded from the side.
Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryomasa turned around and saw the burly figure of Onijujiro.
It turns out that when Ryoga Echizen came to find Mifune Soumasa, Kijujiro followed Ryoga Echizen. He was worried that something might happen to Ryoga Echizen.
But what he didn’t expect was that Echizen Ryuga actually came to challenge Mifune Soumasa, which surprised him somewhat. After all, he knew the strength of these two people and was also clear about the gap between them.
Seeing that the two of them were going to compete, Oni Jujiro decided to act as the referee this time.
“Since you have no objection, let’s get ready to start the game!” said Onijujiro to Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga.
“good!”
Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga answered in unison, and then they walked to the tennis court to prepare for the game.
“The game begins, Echizen Ryuga serves.” The voice of Onijushirou sounded, announcing the start of the game.
Echizen Ryuya slammed the tennis racket to the ground. The moment his fingers touched the tennis ball, his expression became extremely serious, and his eyes were full of calmness. He looked at Mifune Soumasa. He wanted to use this game to see the gap between himself and Mifune Soumasa.
The tennis ball flew, Echizen Ryuga bent his knees and jumped, pressing down with his racket arm.
There was a crisp hitting sound, and the tennis ball shot out at such a speed that it even made a sound of breaking through the air.
“Long Ya, the speed is good, but it’s still too slow for me!”
Although the ball was fast, it was not enough for Mifune Soumasa. The moment the tennis ball hit the ground and bounced back, he easily hit the ball back.
Echizen Ryuga quickly reached the net and hit the ball back accurately with a half volley.
Both of them were testing each other, so neither of them used their true strength.
Looking at the flying tennis ball, Mifune Sosho swung his racket from bottom to top.
High lob!
The tennis ball flew high into the sky and headed towards Echizen Ryuga’s baseline.
Echizen Ryouga was startled and quickly stepped back, then suddenly jumped up and slammed the tennis ball at the moment it fell.
The tennis ball was smashed with great force and immediately turned into a stream of light, falling in a straight line.
However, Mifune Soumasa seemed to have known that Echizen Ryuga would do this. He took three or two steps to the net and cut the tennis ball across with the racket when it shot down.
A friction sound was heard, and the force of the smash was slowly dissipated under the cutting.
Mifune Soumasa just exerted a little force, and the tennis ball drew an arc and landed lightly in front of the net.
Drop short ball!
At this moment, Echizen Ryouma was at the baseline and had no time to return to defense. He could only watch the tennis ball fall to the ground.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 15-0” the referee’s voice sounded.
Mifune Soumasa scored first.
“Long Ya, you’re still far away!”
Mifune Somasa looked at Echizen Ryuga and said with a smile.
Seeing Mifune Souma teasing him like this, Echizen Ryoma’s mouth twitched, and he kept breathing in to calm himself down.
However, Echizen Ryuga has already gotten used to it. After all, they have known each other for so many years, and he has been teased by Mifune Soumasa many times.
The tennis ball flew from his fingers again, and the moment it fell, Echizen Ryuya quickly hit the tennis ball with the racket in his hand.
The sound of high-speed rotation was heard, and the tennis ball drew an arc and fell in the half-court position.
Mifune Soumasa looked at the ball with an unchanged expression, but he took a step back. Sure enough, the tennis ball bounced up suddenly after spinning for a while, and bounced towards Mifune Soumasa’s face.
“Long Ya, have you forgotten that I also know this trick?”
Mifune Somasa chuckled and casually swung the racket to hit the tennis ball back.
This ball is an outspin serve!
However, not only Echizen Ryuga knows this skill, but Mifune Soumasa also knows it. They learned it when they were training with Echizen Nanjiro. Therefore, this kind of serve is completely useless to Mifune Soumasa.
“How do you know if it works if you don’t try it?”
Echizen Ryuya said with a smile, then quickly went online.
There was a fierce hitting sound, and the tennis ball flashed and landed in the near corner.
Mifune Soumasa stomped his feet hard, the muscles in his calves squirmed, and then he shot out suddenly.
A residual image flashed across Echizen Ryuga’s retina, and when he came to his senses, Mifune Soumasa had already appeared in front of the landing point of the tennis ball.
“So fast! Is this Zongzheng’s instant force technique?”
Echizen Ryuya looked at Mifune Soumasa’s movement speed with a serious expression on his face. He did not expect that Mifune Soumasa’s instantaneous force technique would be so strong.
Mifune Somasa tilted the racket at forty-five degrees, and then slashed across like a dancing sword.
A harsh friction sound was heard, and the tennis ball spun at a high speed, even stirring up the airflow around it and creating a small vortex.
Under Echizen Ryouga’s surprised gaze, the tennis ball fell to the ground.
The high-speed rotation did not cause the tennis ball to stagnate on the ground, but instead made it bounce violently at twice the speed.
The ricochet was so sudden that Echizen Ryouga didn’t even have a chance to react. He could only watch the tennis ball bounce out of bounds.
30-0!
Mifune Soumasa scored the second point!
25. Thousands of Hammers vs. Thousands of Hammers (Old Version)
“He actually applied strong rotation to the ball and used his superb control ability to convert the rotational force into launching force!”
Echizen Ryuga was still a little surprised when he saw Mifune Soumasa’s goal.
Echizen Ryuya took a deep breath and suppressed the surprise in his heart. He looked at the tennis ball in his hand with an extremely serious look, as if he had made up his mind and was ready to use his true strength and not test it anymore.
The tennis ball flew from between his fingers, Echizen Ryuya’s eyes focused, and he quickly hit the falling tennis ball with the racket.
A crisp hitting sound was heard, and the tennis ball drew a graceful arc, passing over the net and quickly falling to the ground.
Mifune Somasa looked at the flying tennis ball and stopped testing Echizen Ryouga. Then he bulged his arm muscles and swung his racket to hit the tennis ball hard.
A loud noise was heard, and the tennis ball cut through the air, with spiral whirlpools forming around it, and flew fiercely towards Echizen Ryuga.
“Powerful spinning ball!!”
Echizen Ryouga looked at the flying tennis ball and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Echizen Ryuga knew that this was a powerful spinning ball because he knew it because Mifune Souma had used it in his previous match against Tanejima Shuji.
At the same time, Echizen Ryuga also knew how terrifyingly powerful this ball was.
When the tennis ball hits the ground, it does not bounce up immediately, but instead spins on the ground for a while before bouncing up.
Echizen Ryuya pushed hard with his toes and rushed quickly towards the place where the tennis ball landed.
Echizen Ryuya quickly appeared in front of the tennis ball.
“Long Ya, not bad, you actually learned the technique of exerting force instantly,” Mifune Soumasa chuckled.
Mifune Soumasa could tell at a glance that Echizen Ryuga was using the technique of instant force, but Mifune Soumasa was not surprised by this. After all, Mifune Soumasa knew how powerful Echizen Ryuga’s talent was.
For Ryuya Echizen, learning the technique of instant force is a very simple thing.
Echizen Ryuya swung the racket hard, hitting the tennis ball hard.
But the tennis ball kept spinning on Echizen Ryuga’s racket, trying to break free from Echizen Ryuga’s racket. Echizen Ryuga held the racket with both hands and caught this powerful ball from Mifune Soumasa.
“What a powerful spin! What a strong force! As expected of Zongzheng’s powerful spinning ball!”
Echizen Ryuya was shocked. He found that he had underestimated the horror of this ball. The high-speed rotation and powerful force made Echizen Ryuya unable to resist.
Echizen Ryuga’s racket was hit away.
A roar was heard, and on the wall behind Echizen Ryuya, a smoking tennis ball appeared, spinning slightly.
“I didn’t expect that I would be like Shuji Tanejima, and have my racket hit away by Somasa’s powerful spinning ball.” Echizen Ryomasa murmured as he looked at Mifune Somasa, feeling a little dazed. He didn’t expect that he would suffer the same fate as Shuji Tanejima.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 40-0” At this time, the referee’s voice of Kijujiro sounded, and it also brought Echizen Ryuga back to his senses.
Echizen Ryuya took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and prepared to serve.
“Long Ya, show us your full strength, otherwise, you will be defeated miserably!”
Mifune Munemasa raised his racket and pointed it directly at Echizen Ryouga. His originally gentle eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light. An invisible aura swept over, making the entire arena depressing.
“Full strength? I understand, Zongzheng!”
Echizen Ryuya looked at the tennis ball slowly falling from the sky, his eyes fixed, and the arm that was holding the racket suddenly increased its strength.
A brilliant light burst out from Echizen Ryuga’s body, and in just a moment, his aura changed drastically.
The state of no self…the limit of understanding through repeated tempering!
“Can we open the three doors to the realm of selflessness?”
There was a glimmer of surprise in Mifune Soumasa’s eyes, but he was not too surprised. After all, Mifune Soumasa himself could open the three doors to the state of selflessness, and he believed that with Echizen Ryuga’s talent, he could definitely open them as well.
You know, Echizen Ryuga is a person who is called a “little samurai”, and Echizen Ryuga has been trained by Echizen Nanjiro since he was a child, so how could he not reach the state of no self? Therefore, Mifune Soumasa was not surprised by this.
“Zongzheng, I’m going to go all out!”
Echizen Ryuga whispered, and the bright light on his body gathered on his arms.
There was a loud collision and the tennis ball shot out like a streak of light.
This return shot was far faster and more powerful than any previous one.
“Come on then, Long Ya!”
Mifune Somasa said with a smile, then quickly went to the net and jumped up before the tennis ball fell.
The racket pulls the tennis ball high into the air.
And then… dunk!
The tennis ball whizzed and fell heavily to the ground. Seeing this, the light from Echizen Ryuga’s arms immediately rushed to his feet.
With the help of countless training, his speed increased greatly and he arrived at the landing point of the tennis ball in an instant.
At the moment of swinging the racket, his arm shone brightly and he easily returned Mifune Soumasa’s smash.
“But Long Ya, you seem to have forgotten that I can also reach the state of no self!”
Mifune Somasa looked at the flying tennis ball and said to Echizen Ryuga.
I saw light bursting out from Mifune Soumasa’s body, and the light bursting out from Mifune Soumasa was brighter and more dazzling than that from Echizen Ryuga. In an instant, Mifune Soumasa’s aura changed drastically.
Then, Mifune Sosei hit the flying tennis ball.
There was a loud collision and the tennis ball shot out like a stream of light. This time the return was twice as fast and powerful as before.
As the confrontation between the two became more intense, Mifune Soumasa gradually became more serious, which led to the score widening.
Mifune Soumasa scored, the score was 1-0
Bang
Mifune Somasa scored, the score was 2-0
Mifune Soumasa scored, the score was 3-0
4-0
Although Echizen Ryuga started to train hard, the pressure increased as Mifune Soumasa became more serious, and the score gap widened.
The speed and power of the tennis ball increased dramatically, making it difficult for Echizen Ryuga to cope with it.
“Even if I open the state of no self, the distance between me and Zongzheng has not narrowed?”
“Zong Zheng is so powerful, he is indeed a world-class expert!”
Echizen Ryuga said somewhat disappointedly.
The fifth game began, Echizen Ryuga served, and the tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Looking at the flying tennis ball, Mifune Soumasa used the Thousand Hammers to hit back the ball.
The tennis ball flew towards Echizen Ryuga quickly like a streak of light.
Echizen Ryuya swung his arm hard at the flying tennis ball, but when the racket touched the tennis ball, his arm shook.
This ball seemed to have infinite gravity, making it difficult for him to return the ball.
“ah……”
A loud shout came from Echizen Ryuya’s mouth, and he also put his other arm on the racket, using all his strength to hit the ball back.
Although he hit the tennis ball back, Echizen Ryuga’s face looked a little heavy.
If he continues like this, he will surely fail.
26. Perfect Match, Defeat Echizen Ryuga (Old Version)
The fierce battle between Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryomasa is still going on.
The tennis ball flew quickly towards Ryuga Echizen, and the moment it hit the ground, Ryuga Echizen had already rushed behind the tennis ball, caught the ball from Mifune Soumasa, and then successfully returned the ball.
Fight back with double the strength that has been tempered to the limit.
Because the power and rotation were doubled again, the power of this ball was even stronger than the one just thrown by Mifune Soumasa.
Almost at the moment when Ryouga Echizen swung the racket, the tennis ball disappeared in front of Ryouga Echizen.
“It’s indeed an incredibly fast speed, but it’s not enough, Long Ya!”
With Mifune Souma’s powerful dynamic vision, the trajectory of the ball was visible.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa stomped his feet hard on the ground. With the instant explosive force of his legs and the strength that had been tempered to the limit, Mifune Soumasa’s body disappeared again.
Then it appears in the blind spot on the right.
His eyes were fixed on a certain spot in the space in front of him.
Mifune Somasa swung his racket violently and intercepted the ball.
When he saw Mifune Somasa catch the ball, a trace of horror immediately appeared on Echizen Ryuga’s face.
The power and rotation of that ball just now were doubled twice, but the opponent was able to catch it.
“Zong Zheng’s strength is really too strong!”
However, Echizen Ryuya obviously did not have time to think too much at this time. He rushed out and rushed to the side. However, when he caught the ball, his face changed.
Because this ball was enhanced by Mifune Soumasa’s Thousand Hammers, its power became even more terrifying. After seeing that one arm could not withstand the power of this ball, Echizen Ryuga decisively used his left hand as well.
He held the racket with both hands and stomped his feet hard on the ground, and only then did he hit the ball back.
But he didn’t wait to breathe a sigh of relief.
The next moment, a figure appeared in front of the net.
It was Mifune Munemasa.
“So fast!!”
Echizen Ryuga was shocked.
Standing in front of the net, after locking the position of the ball, Mifune Souma held the racket with both hands and slammed it heavily into the space in front of him.
boom.
A sound like a cannonball exploding suddenly rang out.
The next moment.
The tennis ball was shot towards Echizen Ryuya Biao.
After transferring the selfless aura to his feet, Echizen Ryuya successfully caught up with the ball. Just like before, Echizen Ryuya gripped the racket tightly with both hands, ready to hit the ball back, but the moment he caught the ball, his heart suddenly sank.
The power of this ball was far beyond his imagination, it was as heavy as a mountain.
This ball directly sent Ryuya Echizen’s racket flying more than ten meters away.
“Zong Zheng, the power of this ball is too terrifying!”
Echizen Ryuya stood there with a dazed look on his face.
Looking at the almost deformed racket not far behind him, his expression couldn’t help but become serious again.
Echizen Ryuga didn’t expect that he would lose in this extreme confrontation.
At this moment, Echizen Ryomasa also truly experienced the horror of Mifune Soumasa. The horror of Mifune Soumasa was far beyond his imagination.
“It seems that there is still a big gap between me and the world-class level!”
Echizen Ryuga thought that he had previously believed that even if Mifune Soumasa was a world-class player, the gap between him and him would not be too big. However, this game made him realize that the gap between him and Mifune Soumasa was simply like heaven and earth. Echizen Ryuga couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile.
Then Echizen Ryoma set his eyes on the racket in Mifune Soumasa’s hand, and a hint of surprise flashed in the depths of his eyes. After such a fierce confrontation just now, Mifune Soumasa’s tennis racket was not damaged at all.
“Mifune Somasa scores, the score is 5-0” the referee’s voice of Kijujiro sounded, and at the same time, it also brought Echizen Ryuga’s mind back to normal.
And Mifune Soumasa won the fifth game.
“Longya, let me show you the ultimate secret of the state of selflessness!” Mifune Somasa said to Echizen Longya.
Mifune Soumasa was preparing to use the ultimate secret of the state of selflessness – the limit of perfect harmony. He hoped that after seeing this move, Echizen Ryoga would be able to gain some understanding. Mifune Soumasa knew that his friend had always wanted to comprehend perfect harmony, but had not been able to do so until now.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa was also preparing to end the game with his perfect limit.
“The ultimate secret of the state of selflessness? The limit of perfection? I didn’t expect that Soumasa would know the limit of perfection!” Echizen Ryuga was stunned. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa had already realized the limit of perfection.
“You are truly worthy of me, Zongzheng!”
“But thank you!”
Echizen Ryuga also understood his friend’s thoughts. He knew that Mifune So wanted to do this so that he could realize the limits of perfection more quickly.
A beam of light shot up into the sky, and the field was instantly covered by the light. Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro could not help but close their eyes, finding it difficult to look directly at the dazzling light!
As the light slowly faded, Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro slowly opened their eyes.
They only saw a faint light emanating from Mifune Soumasa’s body. Surrounded by layers of photons, he looked mysterious and powerful. They all felt this extraordinary power, because it was the ultimate power of the seamless realm of selflessness!
When seeing this scene, Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro were both shocked!
“Perfect clothes… seamless!” Waves flashed in Echizen Ryuya’s eyes. The gap was too big, he could hardly see his back. He could not help but clench his hands. At the beginning, he thought that the gap between him and Mifune Soumasa would not be too big, but now he found that he had gone very far!
“This is…the limit of perfection,” Onijūjiro murmured.
“It’s about to begin, Ryoga!” Mifune Somasa said to Echizen Ryoga.
“Come on, Munemasa!” Echizen Ryuga responded.
Mifune Soumasa felt the power surging in his body and began to serve the ball to Echizen Ryuga. Mifune Soumasa just swung it lightly!
The tennis ball hit Echizen Ryuga like a cannonball, and then, before he could react, it bounced directly towards the iron net behind him.
Mifune Soumasa scores, 15-0!
“What? So fast!”
Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro were both stunned, because they didn’t react at all. This so-called ultimate power of perfection was too terrifying!
Mifune Soumasa, who had activated the flawless skills, was surrounded by colorful photons all over his body. His black hair was flying up, and his delicate facial features and bright eyes looked even sharper, as if they could pierce the heart!
“This is Tianyi… It feels so powerful!” Echizen Ryomasa said to Mifune Soumasa. He could feel how amazing the hidden power of Mifune Soumasa was!
“Longya, next, you have to watch carefully and don’t be unable to react!” Mifune Munemasa said to Echizen Longya with a smile.
“Mongzheng, come on!” Echizen Ryuga responded.
When seeing Mifune Somasa tossing the ball to prepare for serve, Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro were watching closely, their eyes focused on Mifune Somasa. Slowly, they saw him gently tossing the tennis ball.
Just as Echizen Ryouga was watching closely and waiting for the serve, he saw Mifune Soumasa throwing the tennis ball up and taking back the racket.
“What!” Echizen Ryoya turned around and looked behind him, only to see a tennis ball lying on the ground not far behind him!
“How is that possible?!”
Kijujiro couldn’t believe it either. He didn’t understand. He only saw Mifune Soumasa throwing the ball, but the tennis ball disappeared. He didn’t see or hear anything! The tennis ball landed in the opponent’s court!
Their eyes have no way of seeing such a high-speed serve, and unless there is an ultra-high-speed camera used in official competitions to capture it, there is no way to judge the game!
Mifune Somasa scored, 30-0.
Mifune Soumasa served again, and he threw the tennis ball up again. There was a crisp sound of hitting the ball, and boom! The tennis ball appeared in front of him and quickly bounced up into the sky.
Echizen Ryuya’s body still showed no reaction and his eyes had no image at all. Such an opponent and such a serve made him feel desperate!
Everything that follows is simple.
This can no longer be considered a competition, but a one-sided massacre!
With this goal, the game ended with a total score of 6-0 and Mifune Souma won.
“I lost. I didn’t expect the gap between me and Munemasa would be so big!” After the game, Echizen Ryuga murmured dejectedly.
27. Trip to Tokyo (old version)
A week has passed since the match between Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga.
At the training ground of the tennis club of Rikkai University, the sound of hitting the ball continued to be heard. All the players of Rikkai University were doing their own training. Some were hitting the ball against the wall, some were running, and some were lifting dumbbells to exercise their arm strength.
“Tomorrow is the weekend, what are your plans?” Mifune Souma asked the regulars who were in training. They don’t have to train on weekends every week.
“I’m going back to Tokyo.” Ryuya Echizen replied. Because his home is in Tokyo, he goes back to Tokyo every week to visit his parents.
“I don’t have any special plans.” Kijujiro shook his head. Although Kijujiro wanted to go back to Okayama to visit those children, he didn’t have enough time and could only go back during winter, spring and summer vacations.
“Playing games at home” said Shuji Tanejima. Besides tennis, his favorite things are shooting games and swimming. So on weekends, Shuji Tanejima usually plays games at home!
“As for me, I’ll probably be reading at home,” said Mitsuya Akuto. In addition to tennis, his hobbies include collecting intelligence or reading.
“As for us, we should go out for fun!” the Mutsu brothers answered in unison.
“I should do a part-time job,” said Ichiro Suzuki.
“Mong Zheng, what are your plans?” asked Echizen Ryuya.
“There is still half a month before the Kanto Tournament starts. During this time, I plan to go to Tokyo to see the strength of other schools and prepare for the subsequent Kanto Tournament.” Mifune Soumasa said after thinking for a while.
They are determined to win the Kanto Championship this time. With Rikkai University’s current strength, winning the Kanto Championship will not be a problem, but they must also prevent any accidents from happening.
But as the saying goes, if you know your enemy and yourself, you will win every battle.
In order to win the Kanto Championship, investigation of other schools is essential. Even though Rikkai University is very strong now, we must still be prepared for a rainy day.
“Buyer, let me accompany you to Tokyo tomorrow,” said Akuto Mitsutaya, who was in charge of collecting information.
“That’s good. With a data tennis master like you, Ajiudou, it will be much easier to collect information from other schools.” Mifune Soumasa nodded with a smile.
“I’ll go with you. I have nothing to do tomorrow anyway, and I also want to see the strength of other schools,” Kijujiro said to Mifune Soumasa. He wanted to see the strength of other schools, so he planned to go to Tokyo with Mifune Soumasa.
“If you all go, then I’ll go with you,” replied Shuji Tanejima with a smile.
Early the next morning, Mifune Somasa and four other people boarded the same bus to Tokyo.
“Ryoma, come with us to visit other schools first, and then we’ll go to your house together. After all, I haven’t seen Uncle Nanjiro for a long time,” Mifune Somasa said to Echizen Ryoma.
“Yes, okay, Munemasa.” Echizen Ryuga agreed to Mifune Munemasa’s request!
So, Mifune Soumasa and his team prepared to start investigating other schools.
“Among the schools in Tokyo that have good tennis strengths, Yamabuki Junior High School should be one of them. How about we go to Yamabuki Junior High School first?” Mifune Munemasa looked at Echizen Ryuga and others and asked.
“I heard that the strength of Yamabuki has greatly decreased this year. Their national-level doubles player withdrew from the tennis club because of promotion, which also led to a significant decrease in their strength in doubles. In singles, there is only Irie Kanata, a national-level master,” nodded Mitsutani Akuto.
“Then let’s go to Yamabuki Junior High School first.” said Mifune Somasa.
Then the five of them took a bus to Yamabuki Junior High School.
“Is this Yamabuki Junior High School?”
Mifune Somasa and his group arrived at the school gate, looked at the words “Yamabuki Junior High School”, and strode inside.
“Hello…” Mifune Sosho stopped a girl with a gentle smile on his face: “Excuse me, do you know how to get to the tennis club?”
“ah?”
The girl who was stopped was stunned, and when she looked up, she saw Mifune Soumasa and his group.
After seeing Mifune Soumasa for the first time, the girl’s fair face turned red instantly, and her little hands nervously grabbed the hem of her skirt.
“Who…who is he?”
“There are so many handsome guys here, are they all here to see me?”
The girl simply skipped over what Mifune Soumasa had just said and thought for herself.
At the same time, she was looking at Mifune Soumasa and his group carefully. When she saw Mifune Soumasa’s handsome face, her face became even redder.
“Classmate, can you tell me how to get to the tennis club?”
Mifune Munenori asked again with a gentle smile still on his face.
“Huh? The tennis club?”
The girl finally woke up when she heard this, and her face turned red instantly. She knew that Mifune Soumasa and his group were not looking for her at all, but just came to ask for directions.
“The tennis club is over there.”
The girl pointed to a location, then ran away with a red face.
Seeing this, Mifune Somasa and his companions shook their heads and walked in the direction the girl pointed.
“Alas, the Kanto Tournament is about to be held. With our current strength, it will be difficult to achieve a good result!”
Yamabuki’s captain, Irie Kanata, looked at the Yamabuki team members who were training, and sighed to Yamabuki’s deputy captain, Akiba Momiji, next to him, saying that Yamabuki’s strength was greatly reduced now, which made Irie very helpless.
“It’s okay, Captain Irie, you have to trust our team members!” Akiba Momoha comforted.
“Hmm? Why are Tanejima Shuji and Mitsugaya Akuto from Rikkai University in Yamabuki?”
Kanata Irie suddenly discovered that there were five people outside the tennis club who were watching them. He knew two of them, after all, he had met Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsugaya, but he had never seen the other three people before.
“Maybe he’s here to collect information,” Akiba Momiji replied to Irie Kanata.
“Let’s go and take a look!” After saying this, Irie Kanata took Akiba Momoha to where Mifune Soumasa and the others were.
“Taneshima-kun, Akuto-kun, long time no see. I wonder if you have any advice for me in Yamabuki?” Irie Kanata and Akiba Momiji came to the outside of the tennis club and said to Mifune Soumasa and his group in front of them.
“Irie, long time no see. This is Mifune Soumasa, the president of our Rikkai University. These two are our Rikkai University’s regular candidates, Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro.” Tanejima Shuji greeted Irie Kanata, and also introduced Mifune Soumasa and others to Irie Kanata.
“Hello, Souma-kun, Ryuga-kun, and Oni-kun,” Irie Kanata greeted Mifune Souma. At the same time, he felt a little heavy in his heart. He looked at Mifune Souma and thought to himself, he didn’t expect that the young man in front of him was actually the new captain of Rikkai University who crushed Tanejima Shuji 6-0 and possessed terrifying strength.
“Hello, Irie-kun, sorry to bother you,” Mifune Soumasa responded.
“Mr. Munemasa, are you interested in a match with me?” Irie Kanata suddenly challenged Mifune Munemasa to a match, because Irie Kanata wanted to see if Mifune Munemasa was really as powerful as the rumors said.
“Minister Irie, this…” Irie Kanata raised his hand to interrupt Akiba Momoha’s words.
“Don’t worry, I know my limits,” Irie Kanata said to Akiba Momoha.
“In that case, then okay!” At this time, Mifune Somasa also accepted Irie Kanata’s challenge.
28. Mifune Soumasa vs. Irie Kanata (old version)
“What? You said Minister Irie is going to compete with the people from Rikkai University?”
“Really?”
“This is true. I heard that person is the director of Rikkai University.”
“Is that the new president of Rikkai University who crushed Shuji Tanejima with a score of 6-0?”
The news that Yamabuki’s captain Kanata Irie and Rikkai University’s captain Souma Mifune were going to have a match spread like wildfire throughout the Yamabuki tennis club.
Everyone in the Yamabuki tennis club was talking about it. After all, the news shocked them!
Suddenly, the stadium where Mifune Souma and Irie Kanata were playing was surrounded by people, none of whom wanted to miss this top-level game.
“The game is about to begin. Kanata Irie will face Mifune Souma from Kaida. It’s Kanata Irie’s serve game. Both sides please get ready.” Momiji Akiba is the referee of this game.
“Zongzheng Jun, please give me your guidance!”
Irie Kanata looked at Mifune Munemasa gently, stretched out his hand, then frowned and said, “Munemasa-kun is so powerful that he can easily defeat Tanejima-kun, so he can definitely defeat me even more easily!”
After Irie Kanata finished speaking, he sighed again, as if he lacked confidence.
“I think so too,” Mifune Soumasa responded with a smile.
Mifune Somasa, who has read the original novel, knows that Irie Kanata’s favorite thing is acting, and he is also known as the best actor.
Irie Kanata clearly has great abilities, but he doesn’t show it. Instead, he often uses poor acting skills to deceive others. However, in the eyes of Mifune Soumasa, Irie Kanata’s performance is no different from that of a clown.
Seeing that Mifune Soumasa ignored his performance, Irie Kanata felt a little embarrassed, but he didn’t think much about it and began to prepare for his serve.
Kanata Irie threw the ball up, then bent his knees sideways, jumped and hit the tennis ball, sending it flying.
The tennis ball fell to the ground, and Mifune Souma didn’t even look at it. He took two steps to the right and hit it with the racket. The tennis ball that had just bounced up flew back quickly.
Kanata Irie looked at the ball flying to the opposite corner, quickly rushed to his right side, and made a backhand volley, lifting the ball high into the air.
The light in the sky suddenly dimmed.
Irie Kanata looked up and saw that Mifune Souma had already leaped up, holding the racket with both hands, and was in a smash posture.
“Smash? No, it should be a short ball!”
Irie Kanata’s eyes flashed, he found that there was something wrong with Mifune Soumasa’s movements. He found that Mifune Soumasa had no intention of smashing the ball, but instead wanted to hit a short ball in front of the net. Thinking of this, Irie Kanata quickly went to the net.
Mifune Soumasa saw Irie Kanata’s movements clearly and smiled slightly. Because Irie Kanata had fallen into his trap, Mifune Soumasa immediately changed the strength of his smash.
The tennis ball shot down and landed behind Irie Kanata, making a loud crashing sound.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 15-0” the referee Akiba Momiji’s voice sounded.
“So… so strong!”
A look of shock flashed across Irie Kanata’s face, as if he simply couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
“What a poor performance!” Mifune Souma was speechless. It was just a smash that couldn’t be more ordinary.
Kanata Irie serves again.
The tennis ball flashed and quickly rushed to the right foot of Mifune Soumasa. After bouncing up, it changed direction and rushed to the right.
However, this kind of ball is useless to Mifune Mifune Soumasa. His speed is faster than the ricochet speed of a tennis ball. As soon as he grabs the ball with the racket, his arm exerts force instantly.
The tennis ball was moving at an incredibly fast speed, leaving a trail of afterimage as it hit the ground violently.
“So… so fast!”
A look of shock appeared on Irie Kanata’s face again, and he quickly chased after the tennis ball, but failed to catch up.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 30-0” the referee’s voice of Akiba Momiji sounded again.
“Is this… is this the strength of Zongzheng-kun? It’s really terrifying!”
Irie Kanata looked at Mifune Soumasa with an expression of disbelief.
“Irie, you should just compete properly and stop showing off your poor acting skills!”
Mifune Somasa was a little speechless. He didn’t know why Irie Kanata liked performing so much.
“Is Zongzheng-kun angry?”
Kanata Irie’s face regained its gentle look.
The game continued, but Irie Kanata continued to show off his poor acting skills to Mifune Munemasa.
1-0!
“How is this possible?”
2-0
“This ball is so fast!”
3-0
“I didn’t expect Zong Zhengjun’s strength to be so terrifying!”
“how so!”
Irie Kanata’s face was covered in sweat and he looked frightened.
“Irie, if you continue like this, the consequences will be serious!”
Mifune Soumasa looked at Irie Kanata and said in a deep voice, his eyes became a little sharp. Mifune Soumasa really didn’t want to watch Irie Kanata’s clumsy performance anymore.
I saw the muscles in Mifune Souma’s arms bulging, and the racket flashed a purple-blue light with lightning, and then hit the tennis ball heavily.
Mifune Soumasa used his Thunder Axe, and he wanted Irie Kanata to taste the consequences of showing off his acting skills in front of him.
The roar was heard, and the entire Yamabuki tennis court trembled. The air waves surged, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Irie Kanata.
“It’s really… troublesome!”
When Irie Kanata saw this scene, the fear on his face slowly disappeared, replaced by sharpness and solemnity.
This is the end of Kanata Irie’s performance.
The air wave created by the Thunder Axe rushed towards Irie Kanata. Before the tennis ball arrived, the air wave hit Irie Kanata’s body hard, causing the corners of his clothes and hair to fly.
However, there was no fear on Irie Kanata’s face as before, but instead there was a fierceness. The current Irie was completely different from the previous Irie.
Irie Kanata did not show any fear or retreat in the face of Mifune Souma’s terrifying thunder axe.
Irie Kanata looked at the flying tennis ball and felt the horror of this ball, so he gripped the racket tightly with both hands, caught the flying tennis ball, and prepared to return the Thunder Axe of Mifune Soumasa.
But soon, Irie Kanata’s face changed, and he found that he could not fight back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
strength!
Terrible power
Kanata Irie discovered that the power contained in this ball was too terrifying, and it also carried the power of thunder. The horror of this ball was completely beyond his imagination.
Kanata Irie’s racket was hit away.
There was a loud roar, stone chips flew, and on the wall behind Irie Kanata, there was a charred, smoking tennis ball embedded in it.
The Yamabuki team members around swallowed subconsciously, because this was too terrifying!
“Mifune Somasa scored, the score is 15-0.” The sound of Akiba Momoha’s voice brought these people back to their senses.
“How terrible! This shot even knocked Minister Irie’s racket away!”
The Yamabuki team members who were watching the scene burst into exclamations.
“No matter how many times I see Zong Zheng’s move, it’s still so terrifying!”
Echizen Ryuga on the side also expressed some emotion.
“Yes! The minister’s strength far exceeds ours,” said Shuji Tanejima and others.
“There seems to be an error in the script!”
Irie Kanata took another deep breath, looking somewhat helpless and his face very solemn.
Irie Kanata never expected that Mifune Souma’s ball would be so terrifying that even his racket was knocked away.
29. Crush Irie Kanata (Old Version)
Irie Kanata’s arms were shaking. This was the damage he caused when he fought back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
“Irie, are you going to continue your poor performance?”
Mifune Munemasa looked at Irie Kanata, and his aura was astonishing.
Irie Kanata pushed his glasses and did not answer Mifune Soumasa’s words, but Irie Kanata’s arms quietly clenched the racket. Obviously, he did not dare to use his poor acting skills in front of Mifune Soumasa as before.
Mifune Soumasa didn’t say anything else and continued his serve.
The tennis ball flew towards Irie Kanata at a rapid speed. Irie Kanata looked at the ball with a flickering eye. He no longer had the playful smile on his face as before. Instead, he immediately judged where the tennis ball would land and then hit it.
The tennis ball flew backwards and landed near Mifune Soumasa’s corner.
Mifune Soumasa quickly went to the net and hit the ball back with a volley.
Irie Kanata looked at the flying tennis ball, his eyes flashed, and he quickly came to the net and made a backhand volley.
No matter where Mifune Somasa hit the ball, Irie Kanata would be able to catch up with it and hit the ball back in the first time.
“Is this the true strength of Irie Kanata? It seems that he has been hiding his strength before.”
Shuji Tanejima was a little surprised. He didn’t know that Kanata Irie had such ability.
“Irie Kanata,” murmured Onijūjiro, he found another master who deserved his attention.
“What method did Irie Kanata use to determine the path of Munemasa’s ball? Why does it feel a bit like my data tennis?” Mitsutaya Akuto asked with some confusion.
“This is not data tennis, it’s a skill called ‘psychological insight’,” Echizen Ryuga chuckled. After all, Echizen Ryuga had been trained by Echizen Nanjiro since he was a child, and Echizen Nanjiro’s psychological insight ability was even more terrifying than Irie Kanata’s, so Echizen Ryuga could tell Irie Kanata’s skills at a glance.
“Irie Kanata has a strong ability of observation, which enables him to judge his opponent’s habits from his actions and even guess his opponent’s psychology.”
“When a person’s mind is guessed, the ball’s path will naturally be guessed as well.”
Echizen Ryuga explained to Tanejima Shuji and others.
“However, this technique may be useful for other people, but it will have no effect at all on Munemasa,” Echizen Ryuya continued.
“That’s right!” Tanejima Shuji and others nodded. After all, in front of Mifune Soumasa’s terrifying strength, this technique was useless.
“Hmm, interesting, psychological insight? But it’s useless to me!” Mifune Souma’s eyes flickered and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Mifune Souma saw through Irie Kanata’s ball skills at a glance. This is a psychological insight technique. Because Irie Kanata has extremely strong observation skills, he can judge the opponent’s habits from his opponent’s actions, and even guess the opponent’s psychology. Therefore, this technique allows Irie Kanata to predict the landing point of the ball in advance.
Mifune Somasa immediately came up with three ways to crack Irie Kanata’s psychological insight.
The first method is counter-prediction, which is to predict Irie Kanata as well. The second method is domain, which is to control the rotation and centripetal force of the tennis ball to make it impossible for Irie to control the path of the ball. The last method is simpler, which is to crush Irie Kanata with a strength stronger than Irie Kanata.
Although Mifune Soumasa is able to predict and control the area, he still prefers to use his powerful strength to crush his opponents, so Mifune Soumasa chose the last method, Mifune Soumasa wants to crush Irie Kanata.
“Take that, Irie!”
Mifune Soumasa looked at Irie Kanata and said, the racket drew a purple-blue light, and then hit the tennis ball violently.
The sound of thunder rang out, and the tennis ball was enveloped in a purple-blue light, accompanied by lightning, as it cut through the court and flew fiercely towards Irie Kanata.
Before Irie Kanata could react, a sharp light flashed past him.
The ground shook and dust flew.
“Mifune Somasa scores, 30-0” the referee Akiba Momiji’s voice sounded.
Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe scored.
The Yamabuki players who were watching were all frightened by Mifune Soumasa’s sudden goal.
Irie Kanata looked at the ground and saw a black mark running through half of the court and out of bounds. The tennis ball was embedded in the wall, the ball was charred and smoking.
“This shot by Mifune Soumasa is even stronger!”
Irie Kanata had a solemn look on his face, even he was shocked by this goal.
Mifune Somasa ignored Irie Kanata’s shock and continued to serve. Another Thunder Axe blasted out, running through the entire court and flying fiercely towards Irie Kanata.
40-0!
The smile on Irie Kanata’s face slowly disappeared, and his eyes became heavy. He kept analyzing Mifune Souma’s Thunder Axe move, but at the end of his analysis, Irie Kanata showed a bitter smile.
Because Irie Kanata took all the factors into consideration, but the final conclusion was that he was unable to take on Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
“Irie, take this, Thunder Axe!”
Mifune Soumasa used the Thunder Axe again.
Mifune Soumasa’s thunder axe rushed past Irie Kanata, but he didn’t dare to catch it, and even if he tried, he wouldn’t be able to catch it.
Because according to Irie Kanata’s analysis, even if he caught up with this ball, the terrible power contained in this ball would shatter his racket and cause great damage to his arm.
5-0
The match entered the final round, and it was Kanata Irie’s serve.
“So…so scary!”
“Wow….Great!”
“That minister at Rikkai University is so scary!”
“Yeah, he’s worthy of being the one who crushed Tanejima Shuji. He’s so scary!”
“This… This is simply a crushing defeat!”
The whole audience was in an uproar, and everyone in Yamabuki was shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s strength.
Irie Kanata kept gasping for breath and sweating profusely.
This time, Irie Kanata was not acting, because he had lost a lot of physical strength after being hit by the Thunder Axe several times before.
In addition, he was constantly oppressed by Mifune Munemasa’s strong momentum, so Irie Kanata was exhausted and sweating profusely.
Irie Kanata took a deep breath, calmed himself, and prepared for the final game.
Although Mifune Soumasa was very strong, Irie Kanata did not intend to retreat. Although the score was far apart, he did not give up.
The last game began, Irie Kanata served the ball and the tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Souma used his Thunder Axe, and the racket flashed with purple and blue light, and it hit the tennis ball violently.
Mifune Soumasa’s thunder axe attacked again.
Thirty, defeated and thrown into the river, met a companion for old age! (Old version)
Irie Kanata stared closely at the flying tennis ball.
Under his strong observation ability, the extremely fast Thunder Axe became very slow.
There was a loud bang, and the tennis ball hit the ground, leaving a deep black mark on the ground.
Irie Kanata took a hard step and rushed forward quickly. He wanted to use the power of the sprint to fight back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
The Thunder Axe hit Irie Kanata’s racket. The violent impact caused Irie Kanata’s racket to dent, and the tennis ball kept trying to break free from the racket’s restraints.
“Go back to me….Ah!!!”
Both hands of Irie Kanata holding the racket were shaking violently. The terrible impact force of the Thunder Axe put him under tremendous pressure. With a loud shout, Irie Kanata used all his strength to counterattack Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
The tennis ball flashed, rolled up a wave of air, and flew towards Mifune Soumasa.
“Great! Minister Irie hits back!”
“Minister Irie is going to fight back!”
The Yamabuki team members who were watching cheered when they saw Irie Kanata fight back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
“Not bad, Irie. I wonder if you can return the second ball?” Mifune Somasa chuckled as he watched Irie Kanata’s return.
Mifune Soumasa looked at the tennis ball that fell in front of him and used the Thunder Axe again. He hit the tennis ball violently with the racket. The tennis ball was enveloped by a purple-blue light and it seemed as if it was squeezed by an invisible force, and the ball was shriveled.
An even louder roar was heard, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Irie Kanata.
Irie Kanata looked at the flying tennis ball, rushed towards it quickly, came to the place where the tennis ball landed, and then swung the racket hard.
A huge crash was heard, and Irie Kanata’s breathing stagnated. He felt that the ball was like a car hitting him violently. The terrible force wreaked havoc on the racket, and the racket in Irie Kanata’s hand was knocked away.
The tennis ball bounced out of bounds, but Irie Kanata’s racket had already fallen to the ground.
“Gurgle!”
The onlookers looked at Irie Kanata’s racket and swallowed subconsciously, with deep shock flashing in their eyes.
Because Irie Kanata’s racket had become completely twisted, it was destroyed by Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe.
“hiss!”
The muscles in Irie Kanata’s arms were squirming and a feeling of pain came, causing him to subconsciously grit his teeth. Because Irie Kanata forced himself to catch the ball, his arms began to suffer from muscle spasms.
Irie Kanata didn’t think much about it and started serving. The tennis ball was raised again, and he swung the racket quickly and slammed it down hard.
The ball flashed and flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Mifune Soumasa looked at the flying tennis ball and prepared to continue using his Thunder Axe.
“This is trouble!”
Irie Kanata really wanted to fight back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe, but now his arm was injured, so the possibility of fighting back against Mifune Soumasa’s Thunder Axe was slim.
Mifune Soumasa’s thunder axe flew fiercely towards Irie Kanata, and the purple-blue light shone, instantly penetrating the entire arena.
Kanata Irie stood where he was and did not catch the ball because his arm was injured.
A huge roar was heard and Mifune Soumasa scored.
30-0.
“The game is about to end!” said Echizen Ryuga and others off the court. They knew that there would be no more surprises in this game.
“Also, it seems that Irie Kanata’s arm is injured!” said Mitsugaya Akuto, because he found that Irie Kanata’s right hand was not as flexible as before.
“It should be because he tried to take the minister’s Thunder Axe by force before!” replied Oni Jujiro, because Oni Jujiro knew very well how terrifying the Thunder Axe was. After all, it was a skill that was even stronger than his own Black Axe!
“That should be the case. However, Munemasa-kun is still as terrifying as ever!” said Shuji Tanejima.
“Yeah, that’s right!” Echizen Ryuga and others also nodded.
The last ball fell and the game was over.
6-0!
Mifune Somasa wins.
“I lost! I didn’t expect that I would be crushed 6-0 like Shuji Tanejima!”
Irie Kanata was a little dazed, and when he saw the score reach a glaring 6-0, he smiled bitterly.
Irie Kanata didn’t expect that even though he tried his best, he still lost in the end, and he didn’t even score a single point. He was crushed by Mifune Soumasa with a score of 6-0.
“Mongzheng-kun, you are really strong. You are worthy of being the one who can crush Tanedo-kun!”
Irie Kanata put his thoughts aside, walked to the net, shook hands with Mifune Soumasa, said to Mifune Soumasa, then turned and walked off the court.
“Well done, Soumasa.” Mifune Soumasa walked down the field to the side of Tanejima Shuji and others. At this time, Echizen Ryomasa smiled and teased Mifune Soumasa.
“It’s okay. By the way, Akuto, how is the information collection on Yamabuki going?” Mifune Munemasa turned and said to Mitsutani Akuto. After all, the purpose of their trip was to collect information on Yamabuki, and this game was just an accident.
“Don’t worry, Minister, they have all been collected!” replied Akuto Mitsutani.
“That’s good. In that case, let’s leave!” Mifune Soumasa said with a smile. Since the goal has been achieved, it is time for Mifune Soumasa and his men to leave Yamabuki.
“So it’s you two little guys, I was wondering who it was.”
Just when Mifune Soumasa and his companions were about to leave, a voice came from behind them. Mifune Soumasa and his companions turned around and saw a kind old man looking at them with a smile.
“Mr. Ban, why are you here?” Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryomasa asked respectfully.
The person who came was the coach of the Yamabuki Tennis Club, Mikiya Banda, but many people called him Banlao. He was a well-known consultant (coach) who had been guiding the Yamabuki Tennis Club for more than 20 years and was deeply loved by students. Although he was 70 years old, he still had a youthful smile.
At the same time, this old man also contributed all his strength to the development of Japanese tennis, so Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga still respect this old man very much.
The reason why Mikiya Banda knew Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga was because when they were training with Echizen Nanjiro, they followed Echizen Nanjiro to visit Mikiya Banda.
Now that Kan’aya Banda has seen Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga again, he feels very gratified. After all, they are all symbols of the rise of Japanese tennis, especially Mifune Soumasa. When Kan’aya Banda met Mifune Soumasa for the first time, he was shocked by his enchanting talent, and has been paying attention to Mifune Soumasa’s growth since then.
Some time ago, Kan’ya Banda heard that Mifune Souma’s strength had reached the world level, which made him shocked by Mifune Souma’s talent. He didn’t expect that Mifune Souma had reached the world level in the first year of junior high school. However, while he was shocked, he also felt very relieved because he saw the hope of the rise of Japanese tennis.
“Mr. Ban, if there is nothing else, we will leave first!” Mifune Munemasa said to Banda Mikiya.
“Go ahead!” Banda Kan’aya responded with a smile.
Then, Mifune Soumasa and his group left Yamabuki Junior High School. Taneshima and the other three went straight back to Kanagawa, while Mifune Soumasa followed Echizen Ryuga to their home.
Yamabuki Medical Department.
“Is your arm feeling better? Irie,” Kan’ya Banda asked Irie Kanata.
“It’s nothing serious, it will be fine after a while, old man,” responded Irie Kanata.
“That’s good. Also, what did you gain from today’s game?” Banda Kanata asked Irie Kanata with a smile.
“I’ve gained a lot, but I feel like my strength is still very weak,” Irie Kanata said with emotion.
“That depends on who you compare yourself with. In fact, compared with other junior high school students, you are still very strong, Irie,” said Kanata Banda to Irie with a smile.
Bantian Mikiya continued: “But compared to that little guy Mifune Munemasa, your strength is still very weak!”
“Although you are both junior high school students, the little guy Munemasa is far ahead of you. He is the most talented person I have ever seen, even better than Echizen Nanjiro back then.”
“Why?” Irie Kanata asked.
“Because when Echizen Nanjiro was the same age as Mifune Soumasa, his strength had not yet reached world-class level,” replied Mikiya Banda.
“What! Mr. Ban, you said that Mifune Munemasa’s strength has reached world-class level?”
Irie Kanata was so shocked by Banda Kan’aya’s words that he was speechless. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had reached world-class level.
“This is true. Otherwise, why would I say that he is the most talented person I have ever met? And in today’s match, I believe he did not use his true strength!” Banda Kan’aya said while looking at Irie Kanata.
“Impossible?” Irie Kanata was somewhat skeptical of what Banda Mikiya said.
“Don’t think that world-class strength is just like this. World-class is far more terrifying than you can imagine.” After saying this, Kan’ya Banda stopped talking and left.
And Irie Kanata just stood there in a daze because he was frightened by what Banda Mikiya said.
31. First meeting with Echizen Lailaiko (old version)
The entrance to Echizen’s house.
Knock knock!
Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryoga have arrived at Echizen Ryoga’s house, and Echizen Ryoga is knocking on the door.
“Who is it?”
At this moment, a clear and pleasant voice came from inside.
“Cousin, it’s me, Ryuga!” Echizen Ryuga responded loudly. It turned out that the owner of the voice was Echizen Ryuga’s cousin Echizen Lailako.
Click!
At this time, the door in front of Mifune Soumasa opened, and a girl appeared in front of Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga.
“So beautiful!” This was Mifune Souma’s first reaction when he saw the girl. It was not because he was lustful, but a normal reaction of a man.
And this girl was indeed very beautiful. She was 1.67 meters tall, about 17 or 18 years old, with long straight black hair, delicate facial features, fair skin, and she exuded a gentle aura. Mifune Soumasa liked gentle girls the most.
This beautiful and gentle girl is Ryouga Echizen’s cousin, Raiko Echizen.
“Longya, you’re back,” Echizen Laila said happily to Echizen Longya.
“Ryoma, who is this?” Then Echizen Raleiko looked at Mifune Soumasa who was next to Echizen Ryoma and asked Echizen Ryoma.
“Cousin, this is my good friend, Mifune Soumasa,” Echizen Ryoma introduced Mifune Soumasa to Echizen Raiko.
“Hello, Munemasa-kun!” Echizen Raleko said gently to Mifune Munemasa.
“Muneko, this is my cousin, Echizen Raiko.” Echizen Ryomasa introduced Echizen Raiko to Mifune Muneko.
“Hello!” Mifune Somasa greeted Echizen Raiko gently.
So, Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryomasa followed Echizen Raiko in.
“Excuse me, is Uncle Nanjiro at home now?” asked Mifune Soumasa.
“Oh! You mean uncle! He should be in the backyard, Soumasa-kun, do you want to look for him now?” Echizen Nanako said gently to Mifune Soumasa.
“Yeah, yes!” Mifune Somasa responded to Echizen Raiko.
“Then come with me, Soumasa-kun, I’ll take you there. Long Ya, do you want to come with me too?!” Echizen Nanako said gently.
“I won’t go, cousin Nanako, you just take Soumasa there alone, I want to rest for a while!” Echizen Ryuya replied.
“Yes, then, Mr. Munemasa, please follow me!” Echizen Nanako said gently.
Soon, Mifune Somasa followed Nanako to where Echizen Nanjiro was.
At this time, they were having a pleasant conversation.
“Mong Zheng, why did you come to see my uncle?” Nanako asked gently.
Mifune Soumasa looked at Nanako, her gentle aura made Mifune Soumasa unable to refuse his question.
“I’m looking for Uncle Nanjiro because I want to ask him some questions about tennis?”
“Tennis? So you also like to play tennis. Then you must ask your uncle for advice more often and strive to become as good as your uncle,” Nanako Echizen gently encouraged Mifune Soumasa.
Seeing how adorable Mifune Munen was, the smile on his face widened a little, and he nodded.
“Hey, isn’t this the boy Munemasa!” The indecent voice of Echizen Nanjiro came over.
“Uncle Nanjiro, long time no see,” Mifune Somasa greeted Echizen Nanjiro.
Mifune Munemasa turned his gaze to Echizen Nanjiro, only to see the legendary samurai scratching his head and smiling, looking at himself carefully.
“Not bad, Zong Zheng, you’ve become stronger and more handsome. You have the same style as I did in my old age.” He said with a hearty laugh.
Seeing that Nanjiro was still so narcissistic, Mifune Souma’s heart twitched a little. Although he had seen it many times, he was still a little uncomfortable.
However, he knew that the man in front of him had unfathomable strength. He bowed slightly and said very seriously: “Uncle Nanjiro, I have some questions about tennis that I would like to ask you.”
“Excuse me?” Nanjiro muttered.
Then he turned and walked into the house, “Zongzheng boy, come in and talk!”
Mifune Somasa followed Nanjiro into the house and sat down. At this time, Nanako came out with a beautiful middle-aged woman.
“Hello, Auntie Lunzi!”
Echizen Nanjiro’s wife, Takeuchi Rinko, is now called Echizen Rinko. Mifune Soumasa had seen her when he was training with Echizen Nanjiro.
“Oh, Xiao Zongzheng, you’re here!” Echizen Junko also greeted with a smile.
“Mongzheng, if you have any questions, just tell me.” Echizen Nanjiro asked nonchalantly with his arms folded.
Mifune Sosho sat up straight when he heard the question and said seriously: “Uncle Nanjiro, I have encountered a barrier in my tennis recently, and I don’t know how to break through it? So I want to ask you how to break through it?”
“Barrier? Could it be?”
After hearing Mifune Soumasa’s reply, Nanjiro looked puzzled and muttered:
“What barrier? It can’t be a world-class barrier!”
Echizen Junko asked Mifune Soumasa. After all, she knew how talented Mifune Soumasa was. She shook her head. Echizen Nanako also shook her head. She obviously didn’t believe that Mifune Soumasa had encountered a world-class barrier. After all, at this age…
But what Echizen Rinko and Echizen Nanako didn’t know was that Mifune Soumasa’s strength had already reached the world level long ago, and what Mifune Soumasa wanted to ask now was how to break through to the world’s top level.
“No!” Mifune Soumasa shook his head.
“Oh!” Echizen Rinko and Echizen Raiko both had expressions of “as expected”.
But then, Mifune Soumasa’s words shocked them completely.
“What I want to break through is not the world-class barrier, but… the world’s top-level barrier!” Mifune Soumasa continued.
Nanjiro was silent, then he looked at Mifune Soumasa seriously and said, “Soumasa, come to the back with me, let’s fight.” After that, he stood up and left.
Mifune Somasa was very excited and a little pressured at this moment, after all, his opponent was the samurai Nanjiro. However, his years of experience allowed him to suppress these emotions, and he stood up and followed.
Leaving behind the surprised Echizen Junko and Nanako, what does it mean for Mifune Soumasa to encounter a world-class barrier at his age? That means he could be the future world number one. Then they immediately got up and followed, they also wanted to watch this game to see if Mifune Soumasa was really about to reach the world’s top level.
On the tennis court of the Echizen family, Mifune Somasa and Nanjiro stood opposite each other.
Mifune Soumasa looked at the bumpy ground around him and didn’t say much. Although the ground here was uneven, it had no effect on Mifune Soumasa.
Echizen Nanjiro stood crookedly, looked at Mifune Soumasa and said loudly: “Soumasa boy, let me see your strength!”
“I will…” Mifune Somasa said softly, then took out a tennis ball and hit it towards Echizen Nanjiro with a powerful serve.
“Nice serve!” Nanjiro said softly as he looked at the incoming ball, then walked to the ball, raised his hand, swung the racket and hit the ball back effortlessly.

32. Compete with Echizen Nanjiro (old version)
Mifune Soumasa’s heart sank as he watched Nanjiro’s batting action. Echizen Nanjiro’s batting action gave him the feeling of being simple. Yes, it was simple, so simple that it was unbelievable.
The simplicity of Nanjiro Echizen can make people feel a shocking power, which is the power of the heartfelt love for tennis. This power is very pure, so pure that he plays tennis just for the sake of playing tennis, just playing tennis simply, but it makes people unable to resist.
Mifune Soumasa knew that this should be perfect, but he didn’t expect that Nanjiro could make every move perfect.
Echizen Nanjiro was not deliberately displaying his perfect skills at this moment; rather, perfect skills had been integrated into every muscle of his, every movement, and even into his soul, making him in a perfect state at all times.
It was so heavy. This was Mifune Soumasa’s first feeling, and he hadn’t felt this way for a long time. However, this force was far from Mifune Soumasa’s limit, so he raised his hand and hit the ball to the baseline.
Seeing that Mifune Soumasa hit his ball back so easily, Nanjiro felt a little emotional. He didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa’s strength would grow so fast and he is now almost reaching the world’s top level.
“Not bad, Soumasa,” Nanjiro laughed, and at the same time, he increased the strength in his hands when catching the ball.
Seeing the ball coming at him faster and with greater power, Mifune Soumasa’s arm muscles bulged and he used his own skills, Thunder Axe. Mifune Soumasa’s racket hit the tennis ball heavily, and the racket flashed a purple-blue light, and was also accompanied by lightning.
The roar was heard, the entire tennis court trembled, the air waves surged, and the tennis ball flew fiercely towards Echizen Nanjiro.
“Wow… so powerful!!” Echizen Rinko and Echizen Raiko exclaimed at the same time as they looked at Mifune Somasa’s Thunder Axe. At the same time, there was a strange light in Echizen Raiko’s eyes when she looked at Mifune Somasa.
“interesting!”
On the opposite side, an inexplicable smile flashed across Nanjiro’s narrow eyes. He took a step forward, came to the tennis ball that was being shot by the reverse airflow, and pulled out the racket slowly.
The moment the tennis ball collided with the racket, sharp energy penetrated through the racket face and shot straight into the wall behind Nanjiro, stirring up dust all over the sky.
“You caught my Thunder Axe so easily, you are worthy of being the ‘Samurai’ Echizen Nanjiro!”
However, Mifune Soumasa’s pupils shrank slightly the moment Nanjiro caught the ball. In his perception, it seemed that it was not the racket that caught the tennis ball, but the tennis ball that hit the racket. It was different from Tezuka’s field, because he did not sense that kind of strong rotation in Nanjiro’s shot just now.
The tennis ball turned over, creating a terrifying momentum that was no less than that of the “Thunder Axe”, like a hurricane, with rocks and sand flying all over the tennis court.
Nanako Echizen, who was watching from the sidelines, was very shocked, because she had never seen Nanjiro in this state, let alone a match of this magnitude.
However, it was okay for Rinko Echizen. After all, she had seen many such scenes when she was abroad with Nanjiro Echizen.
Looking at the ball flying in front of him, Mifune Souma let out a light breath and shook his left wrist. Suddenly, the air under the racket seemed to be under invisible pressure and sank suddenly. After building up momentum, the racket did not stop and hit the tennis ball with a loud bang.
“Thunder Axe!!!”
Mifune Soumasa continued to use his Thunder Axe, and the tennis ball instantly turned into a purple-blue light with lightning and flew towards Echizen Nanjiro.
“Tsk, why don’t you show your true strength?”
There was a hint of impatience in Nanjiro’s eyes. He took two light steps, swung the racket, and aimed at the tennis ball without any deviation.
“really!”
Mifune Soumasa on the opposite side narrowed his eyes slightly, and the tennis ball really hit the opponent’s racket again. There was no field, no super rotation, but the opponent could still achieve the effect of the field.
“Boy Munemasa, if you don’t use your true strength, this match will be meaningless!” Echizen Nanjiro said to Mifune Munemasa.
“In that case, I will use my true strength, Uncle Nanjiro. The next move is a world-class skill I created myself, called Light Strike-Destruction. Please enjoy it!”
At this moment, Echizen Ralaiko and Echizen Junko, who were watching from the side, were shocked.
Because they saw that the tennis ball on Mifune Souma’s racket was emitting a bright light.
A huge noise was heard, and a golden light flew out. A tennis ball with the light of the sun and a breath of destruction flew straight towards Echizen Nanjiro.
The terrible air wave hit Echizen Nanjiro, causing his long hair and clothes to dance wildly.
Looking at this ball, Nanjiro Echizen suddenly felt a sense of danger. The tennis ball shot back from the opposite side did not seem to be as simple as before.
“This kid is not bad! But you are still too young!”
Nanjiro chuckled, pulled out the brown wooden racket in his hand, and put the tennis ball in it.
Although Echizen Nanjiro caught this terrible ball, the invisible force penetrated the racket and went behind him.
The wall behind Echizen Nanjiro suddenly exploded, and countless debris flew and hit his back. At the same time, a strong air wave hit him, and immediately, it stirred up a cloud of dust and smoke, which filled the air, like a battlefield covered in gunpowder, which was daunting.
Suddenly, the tennis ball on Nanjiro’s racket became uncontrollable and suddenly jumped out of the racket.
With a loud bang, it hit the wall behind.
Mifune Somasa scored, 15-0.
“Hey, Souma kid, do you know that this kind of ball is very dangerous?” Nanjiro shook his arms and frowned.
At the same time, he was slightly surprised, but he couldn’t help but praise in his heart: “What a great light shot – destruction!”
“Hehe! Uncle Nanjiro, how about this ball?” Mifune Soumasa smiled when he heard it.
“It’s okay, but don’t be too proud, Zongzheng boy!”
Nanjiro tickled his ears, narrowed his eyes, and a domineering aura burst out. He raised the racket and pointed it at Mifune Soumasa, chuckling.
Nanako Echizen, who was watching from the side, gritted her teeth and stared at the arena intently. She had been very curious about how strong her uncle, who had retired from the professional world and was hailed as a legendary samurai, was. Now, facing the young and powerful man Mifune Soumasa, was he finally going to unleash his true strength?
“That look…it’s been so long since I last saw it…” Echizen Rinko on the side also said, with a hint of nostalgia for the past in her tone.
Echizen Junko looked at Nanjiro who was bursting with strong momentum in the field, and a trace of nostalgia appeared in her beautiful eyes. She said softly: “He hasn’t played like this for ten years. He was so depressed that he became a weird old man who only teased his son.”
“Yes!” Thinking of how her uncle teased Ryoma and Ryoma every day, Echizen Nanako’s eyes curved and she smiled softly.
After Echizen Nanjiro finished speaking, his aura spread out layer by layer, and a majestic feeling spread.
Mifune Soumasa also increased his aura, and a momentum spread out little by little with him as the center, permeating into the surrounding space like a gentle rain that moistens everything silently.
On one side, the atmosphere is as majestic as the sea, and on the other side, it is as powerful as a mountain.
33. Different Dimensional Area (Old Version)
“Zongzheng boy, I hope you can satisfy me!”
Nanjiro said, shaking his right hand slightly and tapping the racket with his left hand.
In Mifune Souma’s pupils, which were shrinking like needles, a tennis ball with dots of light was reflected. After finding the trajectory, he turned his body and pulled out the racket.
After catching the ball, Mifune Souma lowered his racket slightly, but raised the corner of his mouth slightly. Then, he swung the heavy tennis ball out with greater force and used his own light shot – destruction.
The tennis ball rubbed against the air, and suddenly a pungent smell of burning filled the air. Nanjiro opened his eyes slightly, and his samurai eyes clearly saw that at this moment, the inside of the tennis ball in front of him was full of explosive power, like a huge condensed flame.
“snort!”
Echizen Nanjiro snorted lightly, and without him knowing when, he swung the racket out, catching the tennis ball with a bang. He shook his arm lightly, removing the terrifying force from it.
The force that was relieved by Echizen Nanjiro passed through the racket and poured onto the wall behind him.
Suddenly, in the eyes of Echizen Lailaiko and others who were watching, the wall first shook, as if it was under tremendous pressure, cracks spread, and then suddenly collapsed, forming a huge depression.
The whole process was completed in an instant. When Echizen Lailaiko and others reacted, all they saw were flying stone fragments.
The loud noise was deafening, but because Nanjiro’s house was relatively remote and few people passed by, no one noticed the abnormality.
Nanako pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, with an incredible look flashing in her beautiful eyes, while Echizen Rinko, who was standing next to her, narrowed her beautiful eyes and looked at Nanjiro with a fierce look in her eyes.
Sensing that gaze, Nanjiro felt a slight chill on his back and smiled awkwardly. Then, he raised his eyebrows and boosted his momentum with his feet. In Yuan’s instantly shrinking pupils, his racket left an afterimage, and the huge force generated by swinging the racket made everything around him blurry.
whoosh!
The tennis ball was thrown out by Echizen Nanjiro with an extremely terrifying spiral force. It swept across the entire court in an instant and fell to the ground. Like an ordinary ball, it suddenly jumped up with a slight sound, but Mifune Munemasa’s hair stood on end, sensing extreme danger.
Rustle!
Although he was shocked, Mifune Soumasa was not a suspicious person. He turned his feet, moved his body sideways, and spun the racket in his hand, hitting the tennis ball squarely.
However, as soon as the collision occurred, Mifune Souma’s racket was torn apart like tofu. After piercing the racket, the tennis ball stopped and rolled gently to the side.
Nanjiro’s lips curled up slightly, and he laughed, “15-15!”
Mifune Souma’s face darkened slightly as he replayed the scene of Nanjiro’s previous hit in his mind.
There were no fancy moves, no terrifying aura, but because of the overly fast swing, the space and his entire body became blurred.
The tennis ball did not cause any other damage except tearing his racket.
“What a terrifying ball control level, Uncle Nanjiro!”
Having made up his mind, Mifune Soumasa walked to the tennis bag and took out another silver-gray racket.
Nanjiro raised his eyebrows, picked his nose and said, “Mongzheng boy, how was that ball just now?”
Mifune Sosho nodded and said softly, “Very impressive!”
Mifune Soumasa walked back to the field calmly, looked at Nanjiro, frowned and said, “Uncle Nanjiro, you must have suppressed your own strength just now. I’m afraid you only used 50% of your strength just now. No, it’s probably even lower, right?”
Nanjiro’s eyes gradually brightened, and he looked at Mifune Soumasa across from him with an admiring look: “Yes, it’s 40%. You probably didn’t use all your strength, did you?”
“Well, yes,” Mifune Souma replied.
The conversation between the two was heard every word by Echizen Lailako. She was a little shocked. She didn’t expect that they didn’t use their full strength. If they used their full strength, what kind of scene would it be?
“Uncle Nanjiro, now that the warm-up is over, let’s get started!”
Mifune Munemasa’s eyes lit up slightly, and he moved the racket in his hand. A majestic momentum rose, and he smiled. After he finished speaking, his momentum suddenly rose, and behind him, a huge figure in a white robe appeared faintly, with his hands stretched out to both sides and a halo behind him. He appeared and disappeared from time to time, like a god, giving people a very sacred look, making Echizen Lailaiko and others beside him think they were dazzled.
Mifune Somasa used his own alternate dimension, “God” Jehovah.
The smile on Nanjiro’s face became even more intense. Suddenly, his expression became calm and solemn. The originally majestic aura gradually subsided. A sharp edge as if a divine sword that had been nurtured for tens of millions of years permeated his body. Behind him, a shadowy figure with a white turban and a samurai sword in hand flashed by.
“A warrior?”
Looking at the shadow behind Echizen Nanjiro, Mifune Soumasa’s eyes trembled, and then he burst out with a strong fighting spirit.
“What is that?” Echizen Laila exclaimed. Although the two shadows were blurry, she could still feel that they were real.
“Another dimension, I didn’t expect that Xiao Zongzheng’s strength has reached this level. It seems that he is about to break through to the world’s top level!”
Echizen Rinko’s voice was soft, but there was a flash of shock in the depths of her beautiful eyes.
On the field, Nanjiro and Mifune Soumasa stood facing each other.
“Zongzheng boy, you are very good, but you have to be careful in the next game. If you are not careful, you may end up in the hospital!”
Echizen Nanjiro raised his eyelids slightly, and a sharp light flashed in the eyes of the samurai shadow behind him.
“Come on, Uncle Nanjiro, if you don’t continue, this match will be meaningless!”
Behind Mifune Soumasa, the shadow of “God” Jehovah was dim and sacred, and then Mifune Soumasa spoke loudly.
After Mifune Soumasa finished speaking, a powerful aura erupted with him as the center, and sand and stones flew around.
“This kind of power…”
Echizen Nanjiro narrowed his eyes, and his aura suddenly rose. As soon as he thought about it, the shadow behind him disappeared. The tennis ball in his right hand was thrown up, and the racket in his left hand turned into a blurry shadow and immediately smashed down.
The tennis ball was shot out with an extremely strong spin. In the eyes of Mifune Soumasa on the opposite side, the tennis ball suddenly became huge, with an endless sharp aura, yet it was extremely round and had no effect on the outside world.
“Samurai Echizen Nanjiro!”
Mifune Soumasa murmured the other party’s name. Decades of hard training had actually enabled the other party’s skills to reach such an unfathomable level.
Looking at the flying tennis ball, Mifune Souma took a step forward, quickly came to the tennis ball, and swung the racket hard at it.
But soon, Mifune Somasa’s face changed, he found that Echizen Nanjiro’s goal was too terrifying.
“ah!!!!!”
Mifune Soumasa roared and used all his strength to hit the ball back.
The tennis ball flies backwards quickly.
Looking at the tennis ball flying back, Echizen Nanjiro stood still and did not catch it.
A roar was heard, stone chips flew, and a charred, smoking tennis ball was embedded in the wall behind Echizen Nanjiro.
“Okay, boy Soumasa, stop for a moment! I can see your problem!” Nanjiro said to Mifune Soumasa.
34. The Secret of the World’s Top Level (Old Version)
That’s right, Nanjiro has already figured out why Mifune Soumasa has not yet broken through to the world’s top level.
Mifune Soumasa came out of the other-dimensional state and looked at Nanjiro with anticipation.
“Let’s go inside and talk.” Nanjiro said and walked into the house.
Inside, everyone is seated.
“Zongzheng boy, don’t you know that only those who are proficient in using the power of another dimension can be considered the world’s top players?”
Nanjiro said to Mifune Somasa in a somewhat joking manner.
Mifune Soumasa was stunned when he heard this, and the smile on his face froze. He never thought that the method to break through to the top level in the world would be like this.
Nanjiro looked at Mifune Soumasa’s expression and knew that he really didn’t know.
So Nanjiro told Mifune Soumasa about the realms after the world’s top level and the things that need to be paid attention to.
Only then did Mifune Soumasa realize that different degrees of control over the other dimension represent different realms, and the deeper the degree of control over the other dimension, the higher the realm.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa also began to understand why he had not yet broken through to the world’s top level. It was because he only had a preliminary grasp of the other dimension. He could only materialize the other dimension, but could not apply the power of the other dimension to his football skills.
In other words, if Mifune Soumasa wants to break through to the world’s top level, he has to be like Echizen Nanjiro in the previous competition.
At that time, Nanjiro applied the power of the other dimension to his ball skills, turning an ordinary return ball into a terrifyingly powerful return ball. The reason why Mifune Soumasa saw that huge return ball was because Echizen Nanjiro used the power of the other dimension to change the power of the return ball and affect Mifune Soumasa’s vision. This is the application of the power of the other dimension.
Moreover, at that time, Mifune Soumasa did not know how to use the power of the other dimension, so he could only use his own strength to withstand the powerful return ball from Echizen Nanjiro.
If Mifune Munemasa knew how to use the power of the alternate dimension at that time, he could use his own alternate dimension to fight against Echizen Nanjiro’s alternate dimension.
At this time, Nanjiro was seen staring at Mifune Soumasa, who found this a little strange.
“What’s wrong? Uncle Nanjiro?” asked Mifune Somasa with a smile.
Nanjiro looked at Fuji seriously at this time: “Mongzheng boy, your talent really shocked me. You are so young, but your strength has reached the peak of the half-step world so quickly. But I want to warn you, don’t be proud and complacent. After all, there are many people in this world who are stronger than you!”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Nanjiro!”
Mifune Soumasa said with a smile. After all, Mifune Soumasa has never been a proud and complacent person.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa was very grateful to Nanjiro for clearing up his doubts, so he stood up and bowed to Nanjiro, saying: “Uncle Nanjiro, thank you very much for your guidance!”
Nanjiro shook his head slightly and pretended not to care and said: “It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s nothing.”
“Look at my Lailaizi, she is so gentle and pretty! How about becoming my nephew-in-law?”
After just two serious sentences, Nanjiro approached Mifune Souma and said with an obscene smile.
“Uncle!!” Echizen Laila blushed and looked at Nanjiro with her big eyes full of anger.
After hearing what Nanjiro said, Mifune Somasa subconsciously looked at Echizen Raiko, only to see that after Echizen Raiko spoke to Nanjiro, she quietly turned her head and looked at him.
That gentle and beautiful face was looking at Mifune Soumasa quietly with a hint of shyness. Mifune Soumasa was stunned by this scene, and felt that something wonderful was quietly growing in his heart.
But for Echizen Raito, what happened today was completely unexpected for her. After the game just now, Echizen Raito found herself as if she was deeply attracted to Mifune Soumasa. She only knew that when her uncle said that, she was not angry, and even looked at Mifune Soumasa with some expectation.
Echizen Lailai was a little shy about this.
Mifune Soumasa didn’t know what Echizen Rairako was thinking, but he felt his heart was stirred for Echizen Rairako. Since Mifune Soumasa was an orphan before he traveled through time, he liked women who were good wives and mothers the most.
When Mifune Souma saw Echizen Raiko for the first time today, a ripple rose in his heart. Perhaps it was because he had never seen a girl with such a gentle temperament!
However, when Mifune Somasa heard what Nanjiro said, he did not resist in his heart, but subconsciously looked at Echizen Raiko with expectation.
No matter what happens in the future, Mifune Soumasa knows that he has left an impression of this girl in his heart.
Every move of Mifune Somasa and Echizen Raiko was seen by Echizen Nanjiro and Echizen Rinko. As experienced people, they smiled at each other and nodded.
Of course, their actions did not mean that they did not love Echizen Raiko, but they knew that Mifune Soumasa was a good child and a reliable person. After all, Echizen Nanjiro and the others had known Mifune Soumasa for such a long time and knew him very well. So if Echizen Raiko really stayed with him, her future would definitely be good.
So they are happy to see it happen and don’t even mind giving it a push from behind.
At this time, Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Raiko both reacted and quickly looked away. Mifune Soumasa said with concentration: “Uncle Nanjiro, thank you for your help, I should leave now.”
The main purpose of Mifune Soumasa’s visit to Echizen Ryuga’s house today is to ask Echizen Nanjiro about the world’s top-level secrets, and also to meet Echizen Nanjiro whom he has not seen for a long time. After all, Echizen Nanjiro can be regarded as Mifune Soumasa’s teacher.
Since Mifune Soumasa’s goal has been achieved, it is time for him to return to Kanagawa. As for Echizen Ryuga, let him stay and accompany his family. After all, he hasn’t seen his family for a long time.
Echizen Rinko wanted Mifune Soumasa to stay for lunch, but Mifune Soumasa refused. What happened today had a big impact on him, and he wanted to go back and calm down and think about it.
“Laila, Zong Zheng is a very good boy. After all, I can say that I watched him grow up. I know Zong Zheng’s character. You should take advantage of him.”
Echizen Nanjiro and the other two stood at the door and watched Mifune Somasa leave. Nanjiro laughed again, and Echizen Rinko, who was standing next to him, also smiled and nodded when she heard this, as if she quite agreed with what he said.
Echizen Lailai looked at the two of them with a blushing face, stomped her feet and ran back to the house.
At night, where Mifune Munemasa lives.
Mifune Soumasa was in deep thought at this time. Echizen Nanjiro’s words today made him gain a lot. At the same time, they also opened a new door for Mifune Soumasa, a door to a new world. Mifune Soumasa knew that the future would be more exciting and interesting, and he was a little looking forward to it in his calm heart.
35. Kanto Tournament Draw (Old Version)
Kanagawa Prefecture, Rikkai University Affiliated Junior High School.
Although it is the weekend today, Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School is bustling with activity.
Because today is the day for the group draw for the National Junior High School Tennis League Kanto Tournament.
“Sure enough, the teams that can participate in the Kanto competition are all very strong!” Hyotei’s Nakagawa Naigaimichi said to Kimijima Ikuto.
“Of course, because this is the last round leading to the national competition!” replied Ikuto Kimijima.
Because of Ochi Gekko’s personality, Nakagawa Naigaimichi and Kimijima Ikuto represented Hyotei to draw the lots.
“I heard that Yamabuki’s captain, Irie Kanata, was defeated by Rikkai University’s new captain, Mifune Munemasa, and was crushed by a 6-0 match. I wonder if it’s true?” Nakagawa Naigaomichi suddenly remembered the rumor that had been circulating before, so he asked Kimijima Ikuto.
“This should be true. After all, you have to know that Mifune Soumasa was the one who crushed Tanejima Shuji,” replied Kimijima Ikuto.
“It seems that the new president of Rikkai University is very powerful! By the way, Kimijima, which schools in the Kanto competition are worth paying attention to?” Nakagawa Naigaimichi looked at Kimijima Ikuto and asked.
“Rikkai University High School in Kanagawa and Yamabuki in Tokyo, these two schools are worth noting, especially Rikkai University High School in Kanagawa!”
“As for other schools, they are not that strong!”
Kimijima Ikuto’s eyes flashed. The current Hyotei is gradually rising, so except for some strong schools, other schools have no strength to compete with them. As for the Seigaku in the original work, it is still in decline and has not even made a breakthrough in the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament. Now the only powerful person in Seigaku is Yamato Yuta.
“It seems that the Kanto Tournament is not easy!”
Nakagawa Naigaimichi sighed. There was a high possibility that Hyotei would encounter these two schools. Once they met, it would definitely be a fierce battle.
“The people from Shanbuki are here!”
Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, startling everyone. After hearing the two Yamabukis, people turned around to look.
I saw two people walking towards me not far away. The one leading the group had short curly hair, round glasses, and a faint smile on his face.
The person next to him was wearing a sports cap backwards and following him with a serious expression.
“That’s Yamabuki’s chief, Irie Kanata, and Yamabuki’s vice-chief, Akiba Momiji!”
When they saw Irie Kanata and Akiba Momoha, everyone present looked at them with vigilance.
Kanata Irie, the captain of Yamabuki’s tennis club, is a top national player who led Yamabuki into the national competition. His reputation is only second to Byodoin Phoenix and Tanejima Shuji.
Although Irie Kanata is a national-level master, he does not have any aura. Instead, he greets everyone present with a smile. However, no one present dares to underestimate him because everyone knows that Irie Kanata is a master with terrifying strength.
Although the news that Irie Kanata was crushed by Mifune Munemasa had spread throughout the country, it had no effect on Irie Kanata’s fame.
“Minister Irie, it seems that the people from Rikkai University haven’t arrived yet!” Akiba Momiji said to Irie Kanata.
“This is normal. After all, with the fame of Rikkai University, they will definitely be the last to appear!” Irie Kanata replied with a smile.
“Okay, let’s take our seats and get ready to draw lots!”
Irie Kanata continued speaking, and then walked towards Yamabuki’s seat, but before Irie Kanata reached that position, a burst of orderly footsteps was heard.
Trample!
“Who’s coming?”
People looked towards the gate, wanting to see who could cause such a commotion just by the sound of his footsteps.
“It looks like we are the last to arrive!”
A gentle voice was heard, and as the door opened, two tall figures appeared in front of everyone. These two people were Mifune Soumasa and Tanejima Shuji.
When everyone present saw Mifune Soumasa and Tanejima Shuji, they were first stunned, then they were shocked and began to talk.
“That’s Shuji Tanejima. Who’s the guy in front of him?”
“Don’t you know, the man in front of Shuji Tanejima is the new president of Rikkai University, Mifune Munemasa!”
“Mifune Munemasa? Is he the terrifying warrior who crushed Tanejima Shuuji and Irie Kanata?”
“Yes, it’s him. Moreover, his aura looks so terrifying!”
Everyone was talking in a low voice, and at the same time looking at Mifune Soumasa with fear, because Mifune Soumasa’s name was too famous. As Mifune Soumasa crushed Tanejima Shuji and Irie Kanata, his name became famous throughout the country.
“Come on, let’s go in!”
Mifune Soumasa ignored the discussions around him and walked into the house with Tanejima Shuji. Then, Mifune Soumasa saw Irie Kanata and walked towards Irie Kanata.
“Muneko-kun and Tanejima-kun are late, aren’t they?” Irie Kanata said with a smile, and then took the initiative to extend his hand to Mifune Munemasa.
“I can’t help it. I was delayed by something, so I’m so late!”
Mifune Somasa smiled and held hands with Irie Kanata.
“Mr. Zongzheng looks stronger again.”
Irie Kanata’s words were not a compliment, because he indeed felt that Mifune Souma’s aura was stronger than before.
Mifune Soumasa just nodded without answering. Mifune Soumasa was indeed stronger than before. After being cleared up by Echizen Nanjiro, although he did not break through to the world’s top level, his control over his own dimension became deeper.
At this time, the staff in charge of drawing lots had also arrived, so Mifune Soumasa and Irie Kanata stopped talking and went to their school seats to prepare to start drawing lots.
“Representatives from all the schools, prepare to draw lots! The numbers for the draw are from one to sixteen. Each group consists of four numbers, abcd, and the two teams with adjacent numbers will compete against each other!”
“There are a total of six teams that can participate in the national competition in this Kanto competition, four in the winners’ group and two in the losers’ group!”
“The four teams in the winner’s group are the top four teams in Kanto, and the loser’s group will be contested by the teams that won at least one game in the group stage!”
The staff of the Kanto competition explained the lottery rules and the rules of this competition to everyone.
“Okay, the draw begins now!” After the staff of the Kanto competition said this, they started the draw.
The schools whose names were called went on stage one by one to draw lots, and the names of the schools would also be displayed on the large screen behind the lottery table.
“Rikkai University representatives, please come up and draw lots!” Finally, it was Mifune Soumasa’s turn to draw lots.
“Let’s go, Taneshima, it’s our turn,” Mifune Souma said to Taneshima Shuji, then stood up, and under everyone’s gaze, he and Taneshima Shuji walked up to the drawing table and grabbed the labels.
Mifune Sosho took a look at the label in his hand and saw the number three on it, number three in Group A, and Rikkai University’s opponent was Aihara Daiichi. When the other schools saw this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Rikkai University is the overlord of Kanto, and has dominated Kanto for more than ten years. Other schools don’t want to compete with Rikkai University anytime soon.
“Yamabuki!”
After Rikkai University passed, it was Yamabuki’s turn to draw lots, and Irie Kanata walked up.
Number 10 in Group C.
“It seems that if we want to compete with Rikkai University, we have to wait until the finals!”
Irie Kanata murmured as he looked at the match schedule. Rikkai University was in Group A, and Yamabuki was in Group C. They would only meet in the finals.
The draw was quickly completed and the rosters for each group were determined. Rikkai University was in Group A, Hyotei was in Group B, and Yamabuki was in Group C.
However, the Kanto Tournament will not be held so soon, but in a week.
After the drawing of lots, Mifune Somasa and Tanejima Shuji left directly.
Because Xiao K had to prepare things to go home in the past two days, the updates are so few. I’m sorry everyone, but I will resume updating more than three times a day from today.
36. Kanto Tournament Begins (Old Version)
As the days passed, the Kanto Tournament finally approached quietly. The entire Rikkai University Tennis Club attached great importance to the Kanto Tournament. The Kanto Tournament was not inferior to the previous regional qualifiers and county tournaments. It was the most important competition besides the national tournament. Of course, this was for the schools in the Kanto region.
Each region has major competitions, such as the Kanto Tournament in the Kanto region, the Kansai Tournament in the Kansai region, the Kyushu Tournament in the Kyushu region, and so on. These competitions are the most important competitions besides the national competitions.
The Kanto Competition is a competition in which schools from the entire Kanto region participate. Only by passing the Kanto Competition can one enter the national competition, so the competition in the Kanto Competition is very fierce every year.
Rikkai University Tennis Club, Mifune Souma and his group came here.
“Everyone assemble!” Mifune Soumasa gave an order, and all the members of the tennis club gathered together immediately. No one was late, which made Mifune Soumasa very satisfied.
“The Kanto Tournament is about to begin. This time we must win the Kanto Tournament, complete our Rikkai University Kanto Tournament championship streak, and continue the glory of our Rikkai University!”
“The list of players participating in the Kanto tournament is as follows. Doubles No. 2 is composed of Akuto and Tanejima, doubles No. 1 is composed of Yuuho and Yuma, singles No. 3 is Echizen Ryuga, singles No. 2 is Oni, and singles No. 1 is me. As for Suzuki, he is the substitute this time.”
Mifune Soumasa announced the list of players for the Kanto Tournament.
“Also, the Kanto tournament is about to start, so you need to be careful about your safety when you are competing, and don’t get injured at this critical moment, which would prevent you from playing.”
Mifune Soumasa reminded him that he didn’t want to see the game start but his players were unable to play due to accidental injuries and lose the game.
All the team members responded.
“Let’s start training next. Yajiudou, tell everyone about today’s training plan!”
Mifune Somasa looked at Akuto who was standing aside.
“Yes, Minister!” Yajiudou stepped forward and announced today’s training plan to everyone.
The Kanto Tournament finally arrived amid the tension and anticipation of all schools in the entire Kanto region. The venue for the competition is Tokyo Tennis Park, starting at nine in the morning and two in the afternoon.
All the official team members of Rikkai University gathered at the gate of Rikkai University Junior High School in the morning and took a special bus to Tokyo to participate in the competition.
In addition to the regular players, the rest of the ordinary members of the Rikkai University Tennis Club also went along. They not only went to watch the game, but also to cheer for Rikkai University.
They arrived at Tokyo Tennis Park at exactly eight in the morning. Rikkai University’s opponent in the first match was Aihara Daiichi. There was still an hour before the match started, so Mifune Soumasa and his team planned to do some warm-up activities.
The Kanto Competition is not an ordinary competition. The competition opened today and students from many schools in the Kanto area came. Except for some players participating in the Kanto Competition, the rest of the people came to watch the competition.
Rikkai University High School has always been the overlord of the Kanto region. Dominating the Kanto competition for ten consecutive years has put other schools under heavy pressure. Rikkai University is like a huge mountain, pressing heavily on their heads.
If they want to win the Kanto Championship, they must remove the huge mountain above their heads, which means defeating Rikkai University.
“People from Rikkai University are here!” As Mifune Soumasa and his companions walked into the tennis park, students from many other schools looked at them and began to whisper.
“I heard that the strength of the regular players of Rikkai University’s tennis team this year is very strong!”
“Yes! And I heard that the new president of Rikkai University, Mifune Munemasa, is a terrifying strong man who has crushed Tanejima Shuji and Irie Kanata in succession!”
“It looks like Rikkai University is coming on strong this year!”
Mifune Soumasa and other regular members of Rikkai University turned a deaf ear to what other schools were saying about them. After all, they were used to it.
Then, Mifune Souma led the other regular players of Rikkai University to the A zone of the competition, venue No. 3.
At this time, a large number of tennis enthusiasts and sports magazine reporters have come to the Kanto Tournament, and they all want to witness this year’s Kanto Tournament.
Division A, Venue No. 3.
At this time, the area around venue No. 3 was already full of people. They all came to watch Rikkai University’s game. After all, Rikkai University was still very popular in Kanto.
“The number one Aihara is here!”
There was a cry of surprise from the crowd. People turned around and saw Aihara Daiichi and his group, led by their minister, walking towards the competition venue. They came to the staff and submitted their participation forms.
“Hasn’t the people from Rikkai University arrived yet?”
“It should still be on the way!”
“In that case, let’s go in!”
The people from Aihara Daiichi discovered that there were no people from Rikkai University in the competition venue, and then they talked about it, and then, led by their captain, they walked into the competition venue.
“Senior Inoue, why hasn’t that Rikkai University you mentioned come yet?”
A woman holding a SLR camera confronted the middle-aged man next to her and said impatiently.
“The people from Rikkai University should be arriving soon.”
The middle-aged man said this somewhat helplessly, because this was his fourth answer. The two people were Mamoru Inoue and Saori Shiba, reporters from Tennis Weekly.
“Inoue-senpai, is that Rikkai University?”
Suddenly, Shiba Saori shouted excitedly and pointed forward.
Mamoru Inoue turned his head and saw a commotion coming from the crowd in the distance. A team wearing khaki uniforms walked towards them in neat steps.
“The people from Rikkai University are here!”
When Mamoru Inoue saw this, he raised his camera. He knew that the protagonist of this year’s Kanto Tournament was Rikkai University, and as the protagonist, he naturally had to pay special attention to it.
“Brother Zongzheng, come on!”
“Mr. Zongzheng, look here!”
“Zongzheng-kun, I love you!”
“Master Zongzheng, I will always support you!”
Because Mifune Soumasa crushed Tanejima Shuji with his powerful strength and became the president of Rikkai University, and because of his handsome appearance, Mifune Soumasa had a huge fan base of young girls at Rikkai University.
So with the arrival of Mifune Soumasa, the screams of the girl fans instantly broke through the sky.
Then, Mifune Munemasa waved at them, which made the girls blush with excitement.
“Inoue-senpai, is that the number one player in junior high school tennis that you mentioned, Mifune Soumasa?”
Shiba Saori asked in shock. It was the first time she saw such a popular contestant with such a large number of female fans.
“Well, he is the number one player in junior high school tennis, Mifune Soumasa.” Inoue Mamoru nodded.
As Mifune Soumasa continuously crushed Taneshima Shuji and Irie Kanata, Mifune Soumasa replaced the No. 1 position of Byodoin Phoenix Junior High School and became the new No. 1 in junior high school tennis. After all, even Byodoin Phoenix was unable to crush Taneshima Shuji and Irie Kanata.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Mifune Souma submitted the roster of players and then led the team into the arena.
Thirty-seven. Rikkai vs. Aihara No. 1 (old version)
Group A competition.
The players from Rikkai University and Aihara Daiichi have already arrived and are doing warm-up exercises.
“Aikawa, Asada, this match is up to you two!”
Mihara Aijima, the captain of Aihara Daiichi’s tennis club, looked at his players with confidence, because this was Aihara Daiichi’s first time to enter the Kanto Tournament, and also his first time to play against Rikkai University. He was unaware of the terrifying strength of Rikkai University, and thought that Rikkai University’s fame was blown up by others and that it did not have much strength.
“Busan, can we really defeat Rikkai University?”
The team member named Aikawa asked Mihara Aijima cautiously. He knew that Rikkai University was the dominant school in Kanto for more than ten years and their school could not compete with it at all.
“Aikawa, what nonsense are you talking about? Don’t worry, Minister, we will definitely win!”
Asada sneered. Entering the Kanto Tournament made him a little inflated. He felt that Rikkai University was nothing special and he could defeat it anyway.
“Yes, that’s right!”
Mihara Aijima nodded with satisfaction.
Didi!
The whistle sounded, and the match between Rikkai University High School and Aihara Daiichi began. The first match was doubles number two, and Rikkai University sent out the pair of Tanejima Shuji and Akuto.
“Now, the doubles number two match between Rikkai University Affiliated High School and Aihara Daiichi will be decided in one game. Rikkai University’s Shuji Tanejima and Akuto will serve.” With the referee’s order, the real game finally began.
At the same time, Mifune Soumasa was sitting in the coaching seat on the field, and Mifune Soumasa once again served as the coach.
“Hey! People from Rikkai University, I advise you to admit defeat as soon as possible, otherwise you will lose too badly later…” Asada said proudly to Shuji Tanejima and Akuto.
But before Asada could finish his words, Akuto served the ball, and the yellow tennis ball seemed to turn into a beam of light, so fast that it was hard to keep up with it. Aikawa and Asada, who were ranked No. 1 in the league, lost the first point before they could even react.
Asada, who had been so proud, was now confused and didn’t react at all.
The sound of the tennis ball falling to the ground finally woke up Aikawa and Asada, who were stunned. The serve was so fast that they didn’t even see the opponent’s serve before the opponent scored a point.
“What a fast serve!”
“Too fast!”
“Mitsuya Akuto is indeed a national-level expert!”
Yajiudou’s fast serve also surprised all the people watching the game. They had never seen such a fast serve before.
“You are such a despicable fellow, you actually launched a sneak attack!”
Asada reacted and glared at Mitsuya Akuto with anger on his face.
However, Akuto Mitsutaya didn’t want to pay any attention to the two of them. In order to save time, Akuto Mitsutaya continued to play three quick serves. After all, facing such a weak opponent, there was no need for Akuto Mitsutaya to collect data.
Akuto Mitsutani won the first game directly with four aces, and only one minute had passed since the end of the first game.
The strength displayed by Mitsuya Akuto shocked the onlookers and also allowed them to witness the power of a national-level master.
Asada, who was ranked first in Aihara, no longer had his previous arrogance, and even had a lot of cold sweat on his head.
“Asada, what are you doing you idiot!?”
Mihara Aijima yelled when he saw Asada and Aikawa lost the game so quickly.
“Minister, don’t worry, I will definitely get it back!”
Asada replied through gritted teeth.
The second game was the serve of Asada, who was ranked first in Aihara. He used his special bullet serve, but it was still easily broken by Shuji Tanejima and Akuto Mitsutani.
2-0!
6-0
The next few games were no surprise. The strength displayed by Shuji Taneshima and Akutsu Mitsugaya completely crushed Asada and Aikawa, who were No. 1 in Aihara. In the six games, they didn’t get a single point from Sanada and his team.
“How…how is it possible?”
After the game, Asada and his opponent lay on the ground. This game made them begin to doubt their lives.
Shuji Taneshima and Akuto Mitsutani, who won the game, walked off the court calmly. This game was just a warm-up for them. After all, their opponents were too weak and it could only serve as a warm-up.
“Well done, Tanejima, Akuto!”
Mifune Soumasa looked at Tanejima Shuji and Mitsugaya Akuto with a smile. It took them less than ten minutes from the start to the end of the entire game. From this, we can see how powerful Rikkai University is.
“It’s nothing, Aihara’s number one doubles player is too weak!” said Akuto Mitsutani, shaking his head.
“Two pieces of trash!”
Mihara Aijima looked at Asada and Aikawa and spoke angrily, but there was nothing he could do. After all, the result of the game could not be changed, so he could only let the doubles player take the court.
In the No. 1 doubles match, the No. 1 doubles players sent by Rikkai University this time are the brothers Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma. Everyone watching knows that the two of them are Rikkai University’s ace doubles players, and they are also national-level doubles players. Their doubles strength is no. 1 in the junior high school world.
As soon as the Doubles No. 1 match started, Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma opened fire at full force, and the opponent, Doubles No. 1 of Aihara Daiichi, could not withstand the repeated attacks of Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma.
Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma didn’t even use their doubles skills. They used only the most basic tennis and it took them less than ten minutes to shave the head of doubles number one Aihara Daiichi.
“Is this… is this the strength of Rikkai University?”
The regular players of Aihara Daiichi were trembling with fear. Before, they had underestimated Rikkai University and thought that Rikkai University’s strength was not that good. However, after two consecutive shutouts, the regular players of Aihara Daiichi realized how huge the gap was between their school and Rikkai University.
The two consecutive wins also made people from other schools see the power of Rikkai University.
“The strength of Rikkai University is truly terrifying!”
“As expected of you, you are the Overlord of Kanto!”
“hateful!”
Mihara Aijima said with a look of unwillingness on his face. He still felt that Rikkai University was not very strong in the competition and believed that his school could easily defeat Rikkai University. However, he did not expect that his team would be beaten by Rikkai University instead.
The two doubles matches are over, and the next one is singles No. 3. As long as Rikkai University wins one more game, they will win the game.
This time, the third singles player sent by Rikkai University is Ryuga Echizen.
As soon as Ryuga Echizen came on the court, he showed his strong strength.
Before the match was over, Aihara Daiichi’s third singles player was beaten so hard that he lost his will to fight. Echizen Ryuga hadn’t even finished six innings when Aihara Daiichi gave up and admitted defeat.
After a crushing defeat, Aihara Daiichi left in disgrace.
“It’s really boring!”
Echizen Ryuya shook his head and said helplessly.
In the match between Rikkai University and Aihara Daiichi, Rikkai University won the match easily, and let everyone know how terrible Rikkai University is.
Thirty-eight, Maori Juzaburo, Yinhua abstains! (1) (Old version)
Division B.
The match between Bingdi and Jiaoyang also came to an end, and Bingdi won an overwhelming victory with a total score of 3:0.
“I wonder how the match between Rikkai University and Aihara Daiichi went?”
Kimijima Ikuto said to Nakagawa Nakanoichi.
“The match between Rikkai University and Aihara Daiichi ended a long time ago. I heard that Rikkai University defeated Aihara Daiichi in less than half an hour. It’s really terrifying!”
Nakagawa Naigaimichi said to Kimijima Ikuto.
“What? It’s over so soon? As expected of the dominant school in Kanto! It seems that Rikkai University is really terrifying this year!”
Kimijima Ikuto was also a little surprised to hear the news. He didn’t expect the Rikkai Tournament to end so soon.
Players from other schools would be more or less nervous when facing a competition like the Kanto Tournament, and some would even feel uneasy, but the players from the Rikkai University Tennis Club were a real surprise.
Rikkai University’s next opponent is Ginka, which is the funny school in the original work. Because there is still some time before the game starts, Rikkai University’s regular players are resting.
They were all doing different things. Some were listening to music with headphones on, even humming a few lines; some were reading a book with relish; some were even sitting there, closing their eyes and concentrating.
It seemed as if they were here not to compete but to have fun, which surprised the onlookers.
They think that the players of Rikkai University’s tennis club are taking it too easy!
Mifune Somasa was originally listening to music, but suddenly he saw a person staring at them. This person looked like an elementary school student. He had a childish face, his hands on his head, and he stood lazily aside, looking at them. His expression was as if he had seen his favorite idol.
“So it’s him,” Mifune Soumasa had vaguely guessed the man’s identity.
This boy is Mori Hisaburo. Mifune Souma knows Mori Hisaburo’s talent very well. As a member of the U-17 team’s overseas expedition group in the future and also the No. 10 in the team, he is the youngest, but he can stand out among many high school students, which is enough to show his talent.
“Go over and say hello to him!”
Mifune Somasa planned to go and say hello to Mori Jusaburo, because Mifune Somasa wanted to recruit Mori Jusaburo to Rikkai University to prepare for the future of Rikkai University.
Mifune Munemasa came to Mori Hisaburo’s side.
“Hello, I’m Mifune Munemasa, the president of Rikkai University!”
Mifune Munemasa smiled at Mori Jusaburo.
“Hello, Minister Munemasa, I am Mori Jusaburo.”
Maori Hisaburo answered excitedly, because ever since Maori Hisaburo learned that Mifune Munemasa crushed Taneshima Shuji and Irie Kanata to become the best in junior high school, he has regarded Mifune Munemasa as his idol. Now seeing Mifune Munemasa coming to say hello to him, he felt very excited.
“Mr. Mori, do you like tennis too?” Mifune Somasa said gently to Mori Hisaburo.
“Yeah, Minister Zongzheng, I love tennis very much, and I want to be as strong as you!”
Maori Juzaburo answered excitedly.
“Mr. Mori, you must work hard. I believe you will succeed,” Mifune Soumasa encouraged with a smile.
“I will!” Maori Jusaburo answered firmly.
“Mori-kun, you should be going to junior high school soon, are you planning on going to that school?”
Mifune Munemasa looked at Mori Jusaburo and asked.
“Um, I haven’t thought about this yet?” Maori Jusaburo said embarrassedly.
“How about Mori-kun coming to our Rikkai University? If he joins our Rikkai University, I believe that Mori-kun’s tennis talent will be fully utilized!” Mifune Munemasa said seriously to Mori Hisaburo.
“Is this…is this really possible?”
Hisaburo Mori was very excited. He did not expect that the dean of Rikkai University, Mifune Munemasa, the top student in junior high school, would personally invite him to join Rikkai University. And Hisaburo Mori was also very tempted to join Rikkai University. You know, Rikkai University is the overlord of Kanto and a nationally famous strong school.
“Of course! If you join Rikkai University at that time, I will guide your training,” Mifune Soumasa continued to tempt.
“Really…really? Then I will join Rikkai University next year! Please give me your guidance then, Director Soumasa!” Mori Jusaburo was very excited. He didn’t expect that he could get guidance from his idol.
“Okay, it’s decided!” Mifune Munemasa nodded.
“Director Munemasa, are all the regular members of our Rikkai University Tennis Club like this? Are they really not nervous at all about the upcoming game?”
Hisaburo Mori couldn’t help but ask, because he had decided to join Rikkai University next year, so Hisaburo Mori now regarded himself as a member of Rikkai University’s tennis club. The players of Rikkai University gave him the feeling that they were too relaxed, so he couldn’t help but ask Mifune Somasa.
“There’s nothing to be nervous about. No school can stop us from winning the Kanto Tournament.”
Mifune Soumasa said calmly, although his tone was calm, it gave people an unusually strong feeling.
“Director Zongzheng, can you introduce me to the regular members of our Rikkai University tennis club? I really want to know what my future teammates will be like.”
Maori Jusaburo asked. He was very interested in the regular players of Rikkai University’s tennis club. After all, that was the place he was going to join in the future, so he wanted to see what the regular players of Rikkai University, which was known as the overlord of Kanto, were like.
“It would be better for us to introduce ourselves rather than letting Zong Zheng introduce us.”
At some point, the official players of Rikkai University, including Taneshima, also came here. They had just heard the conversation between Mifune Soumasa and Mori Hisaburo, and knew that Mori Hisaburo would become a member of the Rikkai University tennis team in the future. They also knew that Mifune Soumasa had a good eye for people, and that Mori Hisaburo was a very talented person, so they smiled and said.
“My name is Shuji Tanejima, and I’m currently the vice-captain of the Rikkai University Tennis Club. Please give me your guidance, Mori-kun!”
Shuji Tanejima looked at Hisaburo Mori with a smile.
Maori Juzaburo was startled by the sudden appearance of Tanedo Shuji and the others. Now, after hearing Tanedo Shuji’s self-introduction, he suddenly panicked. The aura of Tanedo Shuji was too strong for him, and he stammered, “Please… please give me your guidance!”
“Ryouga Echizen, first-year student at Rikkai University Junior High School, hello, Mori-kun,” Ryouga Echizen introduced himself with a smile.
“Onii-Jujiro, second year student at Rikkai University High School!”
Kijujiro introduced himself with a serious face, which made Maori Jujiro feel that Kijujiro should be someone who was difficult to get along with and not to be messed with.
“Ichiro Suzuki, second year at Rikkai University High School!”
“Mutsu Yuuma, second year at Rikkai University High School!”
“Mutsu Yuuho, second year at Rikkai University High School, please give me your guidance.”
After introducing themselves, Ichiro Suzuki, Yuuma Mutsu, and Yuho Mutsu stood aside.
“Akuto Mitsuya, second year at Rikkai University High School, in charge of data collection. Please give me your guidance, Mori-kun.”
Finally, Akuto Mitsutaya greeted Hisaburo Mori with a smile.
“Hello, my name is Mori Hisaburo!” Mori Hisaburo was also very excited and greeted all the regular players of Rikkai University.
“The match between Rikkai University High School and Yinhua Middle School is about to begin. Please enter the venue as soon as possible.”
Maori Jusaburo was about to say something, but suddenly this voice came out on the radio.
“The game is about to start, let’s go in!”
Mifune Munemasa said to everyone, then nodded to Mori Jusaburo, and went to the competition venue first, and Tanejima and the others naturally followed closely behind.
“Seniors, I will cheer for you!” Maori Jusaburo said to Mifune Somasa and others.
Tanejima Shuji and others took a few quick steps and caught up with Mifune Munemasa, heading towards the competition venue together, which made Mori Jusaburo, who stayed behind, sigh with admiration.
“As expected of regular members of the Rikkai University Tennis Club, everyone has such a strong spirit!” Mori Jusaburo exclaimed.
Hisaburo Mori also immediately rushed to the competition venue. There were a lot of people watching the game, but most of them were students from Rikkai University and Ginka Junior High School, including Mifune Soumasa’s huge fan club of girls. There were also a small number of people from other schools, and of course Mr. Inoue from Tennis Professional Monthly was one of them.
Inside the tennis court, Mifune Soumasa and other official players of Rikkai University were already standing in front of the net, and opposite them were the official players of Ginka Middle School.
Yinhua Middle School is not a strong tennis school. The reason why they were able to participate in the Kanto Competition was only because of good luck, and the other schools were not strong enough, which gave them the opportunity to participate in the Kanto Competition.
Facing their opponent, Rikkai University High School, the dominant force in the Kanto region, the regular players of Yinhua Middle School are now really complaining.
Although Mifune Soumasa and the others were just standing there, their aura became more and more intimidating, and the people from Yinhua Middle School across the street didn’t even dare to look at them.
“Oh, my stomach hurts. I think I ate something bad today.”
“Referee, we, Yinhua Middle School, forfeit! We have been collectively poisoned and cannot participate in the competition anymore!”
An unexpected scene occurred. Yinhua Middle School actually abstained collectively, citing the reason of collective poisoning. No one expected that such a thing would happen.
However, anyone with eyes can see that the players from Yinhua Middle School were just pretending. How could they be collectively poisoned? The reason they gave up was because they didn’t want to compete with the people from Rikkai University.
“Everyone from Yinhua Middle School, have you really decided to give up?”
The referee asked with a strange look on his face. It was the first time he met such a player. He wanted to give up before the game even started. Not only did he give up, but he also found an excuse of collective poisoning.
“Of course we have to give up. We have a stomachache and we have to go to the hospital now.”
The players from Yinhua Middle School immediately bent over, holding their stomachs, and left the tennis court.
“Since Yinhua Middle School forfeited, this match is won by Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School!”
The referee was speechless and finally announced that Rikkai University High School won.
Yinhua Middle School’s collective withdrawal made those who came to watch the game very dissatisfied. They came here from far away just to watch the exciting game, but Yinhua Middle School withdrew before the game even started.
“It’s not that Yinhua Middle School is collectively poisoned, they are just afraid of Rikkai University!”
“I never thought a school like this could participate in the Kanto Tournament. They didn’t even compete and just gave up. It’s really embarrassing!”
Ginka Middle School was immediately regarded as a joke, and at the same time, Rikkai University was also felt to be unfathomable. With its momentum alone, it forced Ginka Middle School to give up. It really was worthy of being the overlord of the Kanto region!
39. Rikkai University vs. Shonan Johshinari (2) (old version)
The second game of the Rikkai University Kanto Tournament was easily advanced because of Ginka Junior High School’s withdrawal.
For Mifune Soumasa and his friends, it didn’t matter whether Ginka Junior High School gave up or not. Even if Ginka Junior High School did not give up, Rikkai University would still be the winner.
“Yajiudou, tell me about our next opponent!”
Mifune Soumasa said this and looked at Mitsutaya Akuto who was standing beside him. As the data collector of the tennis club, all intelligence was managed by Mitsutaya Akuto.
Mitsuya Akuto nodded and continued:
“Our next opponent is Johsei Shonan Junior High School. This should be the first time their tennis club participates in the Kanto Tournament. I don’t know much about the details yet.”
“A school participating in the Kanto competition for the first time should not be very strong!” said Ichiro Suzuki.
“Suzuki, don’t underestimate anyone. Although this is the first time for Johsei Shonan Junior High School to participate in the Kanto Tournament, the fact that they can participate in the Kanto Tournament proves that they are quite capable. We should not underestimate them!”
Mifune Somasa said to Suzuki Ichiro.
“We must win this match against Shonan Jounari, and we must defeat them overwhelmingly to show them the strength of the overlord of Kanto.” Mifune Sogen looked at his players with a serious expression.
“Yes, Minister!” Shuji Tanejima and others nodded.
For Mifune Soumasa and his colleagues, this Kanto Tournament is extremely important, because they must ensure that Rikkai University’s glory continues, and even surpass the achievements made by their predecessors.
On the second day of the Kanto Tournament, the match between Rikkai Yamato and Jounari Shonan began.
This game attracted a lot of people to watch, especially those who did not see the official players of Rikkai University in the previous game. They came here again today, including Hisaburo Mori.
As for Cheng Cheng Shonan, this was their first time participating in the Kanto Competition, but they achieved quite a lot of results. This made them feel a little inflated, and they thought that the strength of those schools in the Kanto Competition was just so-so, and they could easily win the competition.
“Your opponent is Rikkai University High School, a strong tennis school with a very brilliant record, having won the Kanto Championship for more than ten consecutive times. You must be careful in this game!”
The coach of Shonan Cheng warned the players of the tennis club that he had just taken over as the coach of the Shonan Cheng tennis club this year, and he wanted to train all the players of the tennis club to become the best players in the country. This Kanto Conference was the time to test his results.
“Coach, don’t worry. We don’t care who our opponent is. Even if they are the champions of last year’s Kanto Tournament, we will definitely beat them!”
The captain of the Shonan Tennis Club, Cheng Cheng, said with pride, and the other players also agreed.
They achieved such good results in their first Kanto Competition this year, which made them feel proud and they thought that all the participating schools in the Kanto Competition were no match for them.
When the coach of the Shonan Tennis Club of Chengcheng heard this, he frowned slightly and was not very happy.
The constant victories have made them lost, but the reason they were able to win the previous games was all because of his strategy.
However, no matter how powerful his strategy is, it still depends on the strength of the players. Rikkai University has been able to win the Kanto Championship for more than ten times, and the strength of the players is definitely not that simple.
The game started very quickly. The first match was the doubles No. 2. The doubles No. 2 sent by Rikkai University were Shuji Tanejima and Akutsu Mitsutani.
“Taneshima, Akuto, remember to crush them with your strength in this match!”
Mifune Somasa gave instructions to Tanejima Shuji and Mitsugaya Akuto.
“Of course!”
Tanejima Shuji and Mitsuya Akuto agreed with a smile.
“The game begins. The winner will be decided in one game. Rikkai Tanejima Shuji and Mitsuya Akuto will serve!” With the referee’s order, the first game finally began.
“Hmph, let’s see how strong Rikkai University is and whether they can win a game from us!”
“Yeah, don’t let it happen that you can’t win a single game. That would be embarrassing.”
The second doubles player of Shonan Johsuke spoke very arrogantly, with his nose in the air, as if he was the best and everyone else was trash. Everyone in Rikkai was speechless. Who gave you the courage to speak to the overlord of Kanto like that?
“Yajiudou, it seems that there are many people in this world who don’t know their place! What are you supposed to do to deal with such people?”
Shuji Tanejima said to Akuto Mitsuya.
“Of course, I will crush them with my strength and let them know that I am nothing but a clown!”
Mitsuya Akuto replied with a smile.
“Okay, let’s send them on their way!”
Shuji Tanejima smiled and nodded.
“Speedy serve!”
Mitsuya Akuto served the ball at a very fast speed. The yellow tennis ball suddenly turned into a beam of light and flew past the doubles players of Shironari Shonan before they could react.
“What! So fast!”
The doubles player of Shonan Cheng was shocked. How could they receive such a fast serve?
The sound of a tennis ball hitting the ground was heard, and Rikkai University directly served and won a point.
15-0
Next, Akuto Mitsutani hit three extremely fast serves again and easily won the first game. Shonan Shironari’s fast doubles didn’t even touch the ball.
When the coach Xi Chengcheng, the coach of Shonan, saw this scene, he felt a little uneasy.
The strength of the Rikkai University players was beyond his imagination. Although it was only the first game and the final result was still unknown, he still felt that Shonan was bound to lose this game.
Coach Shonan Johsuke’s premonition turned out to be correct. In the next few games, Rikkai University’s Shuji Tanejima and Akutsu Mitsugaya easily suppressed Shonan Johsuke’s doubles. Although Shonan Johsuke’s doubles strength was quite good, there was still a big gap compared to Rikkai University.
The huge gap in strength meant that any strategy was useless, and Shonan Johshin was ultimately defeated by Rikkai University with a score of 6-0.
“Rikkai University is so strong! No wonder it has won the Kanto Tournament for more than ten consecutive times!”
The coach of Shonan Johshinari was shocked. Although he had just taken office, he had investigated many schools in the Kanto region. Rikkai University, the overlord of the Kanto region, was naturally his main focus.
The coach of Shonan Jounari looked at Mifune Souma who was sitting in the coaching seat on the other side of the court. Although he was only a freshman, he was the captain of the Rikkai University tennis club, which shocked him.
It didn’t surprise anyone that Rikkai University easily won the first game. After all, Rikkai University’s strength was there. If Rikkai University had lost, that would have been big news!
After the doubles match No. 2 is over, it will be doubles No. 1. Rikkai University’s doubles No. 1 is the ace doubles pair of Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma.
The second doubles match No. 1 began, with Rikkai University serving first.
The one who served was Mutsu Yuho. He didn’t hold back and used his true strength directly, serving the ball very quickly.
Before Shonan Cheng’s number one doubles player could react, the tennis ball had already landed on their court.
“Did you see what happened to that ball? It was so fast, I had no time to react. That doubles player from Rikkai University is so amazing!”
The spectators watching the game were all very surprised. They didn’t expect that the players from Rikkai University could hit the ball so fast.
40. Advance to the semi-finals (3) (old version)
Mutsu Yuho served again, and the speed of his serve was so fast that the players from the opposing team, Shonan Jounari, could not cope with it. However, this was no wonder, as Mutsu Yuho’s serve speed was among the best even in Rikkai University, which was full of strong players.
The tennis ball landed and scored again. The number one doubles player of Cheng Cheng Shonan looked very ugly. They couldn’t even see the opponent’s serve clearly, how could they hit it back?
Mutsu Yuho’s serve put a lot of pressure on Shonan Cheng’s No. 1 doubles player, and they even had cold sweat on their foreheads.
With the help of Yuho Mutsu’s serve, Rikkai University quickly won the serve game. The whole game took only three minutes, which surprised many people.
“That’s amazing! You’re worthy of being a regular member of the Rikkai University Tennis Club!”
“The strength of Rikkai University’s regular selections is truly amazing!”
The strength displayed by Mutsu Yuho once again let people from other schools know how powerful Rikkai University is, and it is worthy of the title of the overlord of Kanto.
Next it was Shonan Jongeni’s turn to serve, but because Yuuho Mutsu and Yuma Mutsu were too imposing, Shonan Jongeni’s number one doubles player was greatly affected. Her competitive state was very poor, and her serve was also unsatisfactory, and she was easily counterattacked by Yuuho Mutsu and Yuma Mutsu.
As the score fell behind point by point, Shonan’s number one doubles player became more and more irritable, and his competitive state became worse and worse. The balls he hit either touched the net or went out of bounds. There was no hope of winning at all.
“The difference in strength is too great!”
The coach of Shonan Cheng secretly sighed in his heart. The two sides were simply not on the same level. Shonan Cheng was bound to lose this time.
Needless to say, Shonan Chengcheng will definitely lose this game.
The current Shonan Johshin cannot be compared with the Kanto overlord like Rikkai University.
“The game is over, the score is 6-0, Rikkai University High School wins!”
The referee’s voice sounded, announcing the end of the game, and Rikkai University won an overwhelming victory.
Rikkai University has won two games in a row and only needs to win one more game to advance to the semi-finals. However, the rules of the Kanto Tournament have changed this year. The original rule was that the game could be concluded by winning three out of five games, but now it has been changed to that all five games must be completed regardless of winning or losing. Of course, if you don’t want to play, you can forfeit.
After the two doubles matches, the next ones were three singles matches. Rikkai University’s singles can be said to be the strongest in the country. Mifune Soumasa, Echizen Ryuga and Oni Jujiro, each of them is a singles player with terrifying strength.
The third singles match was a crucial game that determined the outcome. Rikkai University sent out the No. 3 singles player, Ryuga Echizen.
The game started with Shonan Cheng’s No. 3 singles player serving first.
This game is a crucial one. If they lose, Shonan will be completely defeated. If they win, the game can continue, and the final outcome is still unknown.
Shonan’s No. 3 singles player Cheng Cheng served the ball, but after returning a few balls, Echizen Ryuga’s feet stopped moving, but a faint circle of light appeared under his feet.
“Why isn’t he moving?”
Everyone was wondering why Ryuya Echizen was standing there motionless. Didn’t he want to catch the ball?
However, the next scene was beyond everyone’s expectations. The ball that was originally hit towards the left side of Echizen Ryuga’s court seemed to be pulled by something and flew to Echizen Ryuga’s side.
“Field, I didn’t expect Long Ya to have learned it too.”
Mifune Soumasa said with a smile, other people might not know what was going on, but Mifune Soumasa knew it very clearly. After all, Mifune Soumasa himself also knew the domain, which he learned when he was training with Echizen Nanjiro.
Mifune Somasa had taught Echizen Ryoga some knowledge about this field, but then he didn’t care about it anymore. Unexpectedly, Echizen Ryoga actually completed this field.
Thanks to Ryuga Echizen’s field, the game ended quickly. The opponent didn’t even get a point from Ryuga Echizen and was truly shut out.
All three games ended in miserable defeats, and the players of the Shonan Tennis Club suffered a severe blow. Only now did they realize why Rikkai University was called the overlord of Kanto, it was because of its strength that far surpassed other schools.
“Coach, we lost the game. I don’t think we need to play the next two games. Let’s just give up!”
The tennis club captain of Shonan Jounari came to the coach.
“No, we still have to compete. Even though we lost the game, at least we have to see the strength of the two remaining players from Rikkai University. Besides, only by competing with strong players can your strength continue to grow!”
The coach of Shonan Jounari said.
He is now very curious about the strength of the remaining two players of Rikkai University. Although they lost the game this year, they will still participate in the Kanto Tournament next year and the year after. Naturally, they must have a clear understanding of this powerful opponent, Rikkai University, in case they meet them again in the future.
“Yes, coach, we will go all out in the next two games!”
The head of Shonan Cheng’s tennis club felt that what the coach said was very right. Only by constantly competing with strong opponents could one know one’s own shortcomings. Only by knowing one’s own shortcomings could one make up for them and become stronger.
Mifune Soumasa was a little surprised that Shonan Jounari did not give up. He originally thought that after such a severe blow, they would definitely give up, but he did not expect that they still wanted to continue the competition.
The third singles match was over, and since Shonan Jounari did not give up, the match had to continue. In the second singles match, the Rikkai University player was Oni Jujiro, who was second only to Mifune Soumasa in the Rikkai University tennis club. It could be said that in this junior high school world, only Mifune Soumasa could beat him, and the rest were no match for him.
Kijujiro is a player with super strength who can crush the opponent’s wrist with one blow. His black battle axe is as powerful as Mifune Soumasa’s thunder battle axe, and can even blow people away.
Shonan Johsen’s second singles player was hit at this moment and was blown away by Kijujiro’s black battle axe. He then fainted and was unable to continue playing. Shonan Johsen immediately chose to forfeit.
Many people are scared of Onijujiro’s black battle axe. No one expected that Onijujiro could play such a terrible tennis ball. There are really many “monsters” in Rikkai University.
The last singles match was between the two teams’ captains, but no one was optimistic about Shonan Jounari in this match, because Rikkai University’s captain, Mifune Munemasa, was the No. 1 in junior high school tennis! The difference in strength between the two was huge!
Things turned out just as everyone expected, and the entire game was resolved in less than ten minutes.
Throughout the entire game, Rikkai University Tennis Club Captain Mifune Souma played the most basic tennis. There is probably no other person in the entire junior high school world who can play the most basic tennis with such powerful strength.
In the match against Jounari Shonan, Rikkai University won the game with overwhelming strength, allowing everyone to see the strength of Rikkai University. The title of Kanto Overlord is well deserved.
Rikkai University successfully advanced to the semi-finals, which will be held in three days. Their semi-final opponent is the winner of Group B, Hyotei.
Hyotei is very famous throughout the country because under the leadership of their minister, Ochi Gekko, Hyotei’s name is known throughout the country. It is a very powerful school.
Chapter 41: Rikkai University vs. Hyotei! (4 more chapters) (Old version)
Rikkai University Tennis Club.
Although it is still during the Kanto Tournament, the tennis club’s training has not stopped and daily training is still held as usual.
Of course, if any team member wants to improve his strength, he can also find Akuto Mitsutani and ask for an intensive training plan.
For those players who want to become official team members, they certainly want to become stronger so that they can become official members of Rikkai University and represent Rikkai University in competitions.
As for how to become stronger, the only way is to keep training.
Mifune Soumasa was very satisfied when he saw all the members of the tennis club training hard, but he was still thinking about the next match with Hyotei, as Hyotei was still very strong.
“Everyone assemble!”
Tomorrow is the match between Rikkai University High School and Yamabuki Junior High School. Mifune Soumasa once again gathered all the players of the tennis club.
“Tomorrow our Rikkai University will play against Hyotei Academy. We can only win this game and not lose. In order to deal with Hyotei Academy, I have made some changes to the roster. Doubles No. 2 will be played by Tanejima and Suzuki, doubles No. 1 will be played by Yuuho and Yuma, singles No. 3 will be played by me, singles No. 2 will be played by Oni, and singles No. 1 will be played by Ryuga!”
“Akuto will be the substitute this time and record the process of our game. Records should be made for every game thereafter for our future reference,” said Mifune Soumasa.
The semi-finals of the Kanto competition have begun. There are four schools competing in this semi-final, namely Rikkai University High School, Yamabuki Junior High School, Rokkaku Junior High School, and Hyotei Academy.
Among them, Rikkai University Affiliated High School will compete with Hyotei Academy, and Yamabuki Junior High School will compete with Rokkaku Junior High School. The winning schools will enter the finals and compete for the final championship.
The semi-finals of the Kanto competition naturally attracted students from many schools to watch. Many schools in the Tokyo area had students coming to watch the game. After all, the venue of the competition was in Tokyo, not far away.
Hyotei Academy is a strong tennis school. The most famous person in the school is their captain, Ochi Gekko, who is famous for his mental tennis and is known as the mental assassin.
Hyotei Academy’s coach, Taro Sakaki, is also a famous coach. Under his guidance, Hyotei Academy has achieved good results in recent years.
This is also where Hyotei Academy is stronger than Seishun Gakuen. Everything in the Hyotei Academy tennis club is decided by coach Taro Sakaki, and they also advocate strength above all else.
On the contrary, it is Qingxue. Coach Ryusaki of Qingxue does not really care about the affairs of the tennis club. She usually lets the club director manage it. As a coach, she has very little say in the tennis club, so even if things like seniors excluding juniors happen, she is powerless even if she knows about it. This has also led to the Qingxue tennis club getting worse year by year. Qingxue, which was once a strong tennis school, is now on the decline.
Even if Coach Ryuzaki had been a little tougher and expelled some of the bad apples from the tennis club, the current Qingxue Tennis Club would not be like this. Now that the Qingxue Tennis Club has become third-rate, it has to be said that this has a lot to do with Coach Ryuzaki’s inaction.
Tokyo Tennis Park, Mifune Soumasa and his team came here again from Kanagawa. Today’s semi-final match between them and Hyotei Gakuen will be held at nine in the morning.
“Yajiudou, you will sit in the coaching booth for me today!”
Mifune Somasa instructed Mitsuya Akuto that he would be the third singles player today and it would be his turn soon, so he naturally could not sit in the coach’s position on the court.
“Okay, I got it, Minister!”
Mitsuya Akuto nodded.
“The Kanto Tournament semi-finals are about to begin, please enter as soon as possible!”
Soon, the broadcast started.
“Let’s enter!”
Mifune Soumasa nodded to the others and walked towards the competition venue first. Tanejima Shuji and the others naturally followed closely behind him and entered the competition venue behind Mifune Soumasa.
Compared to the momentum of Hyotei Academy, the momentum of Mifune Soumasa and his group is stronger. Once the momentum of both sides is compared, Hyotei Academy immediately falls into a disadvantage.
“Hopefully we’ll have a good game today!”
Mifune Sosho smiled as he looked at the captain of the tennis club of Hyotei Academy, Ochi Gekko, who was known as the mental assassin.
Ochi Moonlight replied coldly, this is just his personality.
The game started soon. The first game was doubles number two. Shuji Tanejima and Ichiro Suzuki walked to the court with their rackets.
Hyotei Gakuen’s coach, Taro Sakaki, frowned when he saw Shuji Tanejima and Ichiro Suzuki coming on the court. He didn’t expect that Rikkai University would let Shuji Tanejima, a strong singles player, play doubles. But it didn’t matter, because the doubles team of Rikkai University was a temporary combination of singles players anyway.
“The match begins. The winner will be decided in one game. Rikkai University players Shuji Tanejima and Ichiro Suzuki will serve!” the referee announced.
The doubles combination of Shuji Taneshima and Ichiro Suzuki, Ichiro Suzuki is in the first half and Shuji Taneshima is in the second half. Shuji Taneshima in the second half will serve first.
Shuji Tanejima used a fast serve right from the start. The speed of the ball was so fast that it was almost invisible to the naked eye, which surprised the second doubles player of Hyotei Academy.
As the tennis ball landed, Shuji Tanejima scored a point directly with an ace, which made the No. 2 doubles player of Hyotei Academy gasp. They didn’t expect Shuji Tanejima’s serve to be so fast. He really deserves to be the top national master with terrifying strength.
“Powerful spinning ball!”
Shuji Tanejima used a powerful spinning ball, which he learned from Mifune Somasa. The fierce hitting made the ball extremely powerful, and it rushed towards the opponent’s court like a surging wave.
The second doubles player of Hyotei Academy tried to catch the ball, but the ball was so powerful that his tennis racket flew away and his entire arm was numb! The power was so strong that it was shocking.
Shuji Tanejima easily won the first game with his fast serve and powerful spinning ball. The doubles team of Hyotei Academy was unable to hit back a single ball against Shuji Tanejima’s two moves.
Next it was the turn of the doubles duo of Hyotei Academy to serve. In fact, this doubles duo of Hyotei Academy was still very strong. It was a pity that they met the strong player Shuji Tanejima in this match.
In the second game, one of the doubles team members of Hyotei Academy had his arm injured by a powerful spinning ball from Shuji Tanejima, making him lose his combat effectiveness.
The Hyotei doubles team number two, whose strength was originally inferior to that of Tanedashima Shuji and Suzuki Ichiro, was now missing one member and was no match for Tanedashima Shuji and the others.
“The game is over, the score is 6-0, Rikkai University High School won.” The referee announced the result.
Many students who came to watch the game couldn’t believe it was true. You know, the doubles team of Hyotei Academy is still very strong, but now they lost to Rikkai University with a score of 6-0. This is simply incredible.
“Isn’t Rikkai University’s strength this year too strong? It’s simply too strong!”
“Yes, although Rikkai University was very powerful last year, it was not as terrifying as this year!”
The crushing defeat of Hyotei Academy’s second doubles team also surprised Taro Sakaki. In his opinion, their Hyotei Academy’s doubles team might lose to Rikkai University, but they would definitely not lose so badly. After all, Rikkai University’s doubles team was a temporary combination of singles players.
But now the facts have proved that this is not the case. Even if it is a temporary doubles combination, as long as their own strength is strong enough, they can still beat them.
The doubles match number two was over, and next was the doubles match number one. Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma had already done their warm-up exercises and walked into the court after the second match started.
Forty-two, Doubles One, Win! (5 more) (Old version)
“In the Kanto Tournament semi-finals, Rikkai University vs. Hyotei, please invite one doubles player from each team to play!”
Soon, the referee blew the whistle.
Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma had already done their warm-up exercises and walked into the stadium after the second game started.
“Now, our doubles team is in trouble!”
When Kimijima Ikuto saw Rikkai University’s Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma appear as the doubles team, he was a little worried, because he knew that Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma were the best doubles team in the country, with good cooperation and strong strength.
Although Hyotei’s number one doubles player is also a nationally famous doubles player, there is still some gap in strength compared to Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma!
“It seems that we can only fight with all our strength!”
Hyotei’s top doubles team looked at each other helplessly. Although they were famous throughout the country, they were still not good enough to face the Mutsu brothers.
“Both sides are ready. Rikkai Continent Ou Yuubu serves. The match begins!”
As the referee’s voice sounded, the second doubles match finally began. The first to serve were Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma from Rikkai University. They seemed to have particularly good luck today, and the opening serve was in their hands.
Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma looked at each other and nodded slightly. Then Mutsu Yuubu walked directly to the baseline of the court, while Mutsu Yuma walked to the front of the net. The two of them moved in a straight line, and Mutsu Yuma was even half squatting.
“What is this? Is there such a way to play doubles?”
“Two people are in a straight line, how can we fight?”
Many people are very puzzled by the formation of Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma. Their level is limited, so they naturally don’t know what formation Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma are currently using.
“Kimijima, do you know why they are like this? Can this be used for doubles?”
Hyotei’s Nakagawa Naigaimichi looked at Kimijima Ikuto and asked. He was very curious when he saw the formation that Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma had performed.
“I don’t know either,” Kimijima Ikuto shook his head. He had never seen such a formation before.
“This is the Australian formation!”
Taro Sakaki, the coach of the Hyotei tennis club, frowned and said that he didn’t expect Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma to use the Australian formation.
“Coach Taro Sakaki, what about the Australian formation you mentioned just now?” asked Ikuto Kimijima. He was not very clear about doubles.
“The Australian formation is a very powerful formation, and some international professional players often use it, but this formation also requires strong tacit understanding and cooperation.”
“Australia’s formation uses one baseline and one net. Two players stand at the baseline and the net respectively, forming a straight line. When playing, the players can move left and right to confuse the opponent. And you can see that the person standing at the net is half squatting. The reason for doing this is to make it easier to intercept at the net.”
Taro Sakaki, the coach of the Hyotei tennis club, has been a coach for many years, so he is naturally knowledgeable.
On the court, because Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma were standing in a straight line, Hyotei’s number one doubles player had no idea which direction Mutsu Yuuho’s serve would come from, whether it would be to the right or to the left.
If you don’t know where the ball is going to come from, you can’t prepare in advance.
However, Hyotei’s doubles team is not famous for nothing. Since they don’t know which direction the opponent’s ball will come from, they will respond to changes by remaining unchanged.
Mutsu Yuuho finally served the ball, and Mutsu Yuma immediately moved to the right the moment Mutsu Yuuho served the ball. The ball was hit to the left, and if he moved to the left, wouldn’t he be blocking the ball’s path!
“The ball is on the left!”
Hyotei’s number one doubles player immediately ran to the left, trying to hit the ball back.
But what shocked him was that after the ball hit the ground, it did not bounce up violently, but rushed backwards at a low altitude.
“Does the power of rotation weaken the bounce of the tennis ball?”
The number one doubles player of Hyotei had a flash of eyes, and he placed his racket on the ground, swinging the ball from bottom to top.
The tennis ball flew quickly towards the Mutsu brothers. This ball was a diagonal ball, directly heading towards the diagonal baseline of Mutsu Yubu.
Mutsu Yuho, who had been defending at the baseline, intercepted the tennis ball before it could be reached, and used his racket to cut diagonally, hitting a high-speed cutting ball.
The tennis ball quickly hit the near corner and bounced out.
Tap tap tap!
There were dense footsteps, and the number one doubles player of Ice Emperor moved sideways in front of the net, pressed down with the racket, directly caught the tennis ball, and hit it back.
However, Mutsu Yuma’s figure appeared in front of the net at some point.
The racket swung, and a short ball landed beside Hyotei’s No. 1 doubles player in front of the net.
Rikkai University’s Mutsu Yuuma and Mutsu Yuho scored first
“It’s incredible, the young people nowadays!”
Taro Sakaki, the coach of the Hyotei tennis club, smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was greatly surprised by how skillfully Yuuho Mutsu and Yuma Mutsu used the Australian formation. The strength of this generation of players at Rikkai University was truly unfathomable, and each one was stronger than the other.
It was Mutsu Yuho’s serve again, just an ordinary quick serve, and the number one doubles player from Yamabuki Junior High School could naturally return it.
However, Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma are now using the Australian formation. The moment the ball was hit back, Mutsu Yuma moved and intercepted directly in front of the net, winning another point.
Thanks to the tacit cooperation between Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma, the first game was won easily.
In the next game, it was the turn of Hyotei Academy’s doubles number one to serve. Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma immediately changed their formation and both came to the net at the same time, ready to intercept.
“Double net front lineup!”
The number one doubles player from Hyotei Academy was a little surprised. He was not very familiar with the previous Australian formation, but he knew about the double net lineup, which was a lineup where two people stood in front of the net at the same time and made tennis interceptions.
The double net lineup is a test of the players’ abilities. Without a certain level of strength, one would not dare to use this lineup.
The number one doubles player of Hyotei Academy finally started serving. He hit a high ball, trying to bypass the obstruction of Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma and hit the ball directly behind them.
It has to be said that the number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School does have some strength, but it’s a pity that they met the powerful and tacit combination of Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma.
Mutsu Yuma quickly moved to the back and hit the opponent’s high ball back. The opponent hit back again, and Mutsu Yubu volleyed directly in front of the net and scored another point with a half volley.
“this!”
Everyone in Hyotei Academy was shocked by the level of tacit understanding between the doubles team of Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma. They are worthy of being the number one doubles team in the country, with such great tacit understanding.
“Suzuki, Yuuho and Yuuma are the real doubles team. Our doubles team only defeated the opponent by relying on their own strength. It seems that our doubles team needs to improve even more!”
Shuji Tanejima shook his head slightly at Ichiro Suzuki.
In the previous doubles match No. 2, although they won easily, it was because Shuji Tanejima was very strong and with a certain amount of coordination, they defeated their opponent so easily.
But now watching the doubles between Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma, they realized that this kind of doubles is the real doubles, and both sides cooperate with each other very well.
“The gap is huge, and we need more time to adjust!”
Ichiro Suzuki also shook his head.
On the court, Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma relied on the double net formation, frequently used half volleys and super half volleys, and won another game from Hyotei.
The score is 2-0!
In the next few games, Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma alternately used the Australian formation, double net formation and double baseline formation. They used the three formations continuously and made Hyotei unable to resist.
“What an amazing doubles match!”
“Rikkai University’s doubles team is so strong!”
Outside the tennis court, the crowd watching was also talking about it.
“What a horrible young man!”
Taro Sakaki, the coach of the Hyotei tennis club, sighed as he watched the game on the court. He knew they were bound to lose this doubles match.
“The game is over, the score is 6-2, Rikkai University High School wins!”
The doubles match number one ended, and Hyotei’s doubles team one won two games from Rikkai University’s Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma.
This is the last update for today, there will be 5 updates today.
Forty-three. Munemasa Mifune vs. Gekko Ochi! (1/3) (old version)
“Moonlight, the next singles match is yours. Your opponent should be the one known as the ‘number one tennis player in junior high school’, Mifune Munemasa. Don’t think about winning or losing now. Just try your best and perform at your original level!”
Taro Sakaki, the coach of the Hyotei tennis club, looked at Ochi Gekko and said.
“Yes, coach, I will try my best!”
Yuezhi Yueguang nodded, then turned and walked onto the field.
“Please give me your guidance!”
Mifune Somasa also walked onto the court with a racket, then looked at Ochi Gekko and said.
“Please give me more advice!”
Yuezhi Yueguang responded coldly.
“The singles match three begins, Ochi Gekko versus Mifune Soumasa, the winner will be decided in one game, Ochi Gekko from Hyotei Academy will serve!”
At this time, the referee also announced the start of the game.
Yuezhi Yuekou was hitting the tennis ball and then throwing it up. At this moment, Yuezhi Yuekou’s energy and spirit condensed into a point, and his momentum changed instantly.
In an instant, Ochi Yueguang pressed down with the racket in his hand, and then the tennis ball flew out quickly.
In everyone’s eyes, the ball looked like a beam of golden light, traveling at an incredibly fast speed.
“Mach serve? No, it should just be a super high speed serve!”
Mifune Soumasa looked at the tennis ball flying at him at high speed without changing his expression. He took two steps forward and then hit it forward.
The tennis ball just bounced up and hit Mifune Souma’s racket.
Then, Mifune Souma exerted force with his arms and the tennis ball rushed out.
With a huge roar, the tennis ball fell to the ground like a cannonball, exploded next to Ochi Gekko, and bounced out of bounds at an extremely fast speed.
“Mifune Somasa scores, the score is 15-0!”
The referee on the sidelines announced.
Ochi Gekko frowned. That ball was his super high-speed serve, with a speed of 195km/h. Originally, Ochi Gekko wanted to use his super high-speed serve to test Mifune Soumasa’s strength, but he didn’t expect that Mifune Soumasa would easily return his super high-speed serve.
“It seems that Mifune Munemasa’s strength is even more terrifying than I imagined. He is indeed the No. 1 in junior high school!”
Ochi Gekko knew that it was not that his super-high-speed serve was too slow, but that Mifune Soumasa was too strong, so his super-high-speed serve of 195km/h was completely useless against Mifune Soumasa.
Ochi Gekko still wanted to continue testing Mifune Somasa.
Another super high-speed serve with a speed of 200km/h, the tennis ball flew quickly towards Mifune Soumasa.
Looking at the fast-flying tennis ball, Mifune Souma quickly came to the landing point of the tennis ball and swung the racket vigorously at the tennis ball.
A huge roar sounded again, and before Ochi Moonlight could react, the tennis ball quickly passed by and bounced out of bounds at an extremely fast speed.
“Mifune Somasa scores, the score is 30-0!”
The referee on the sidelines saw this and immediately made an announcement.
Ochi Gekko took a deep breath and continued to serve, still wanting to continue testing Mifune Soumasa.
205km/h ultra-high speed serve
An ultra-high-speed serve of 210 km/h.
Ochi Gekko used four consecutive super-high-speed serves to test Mifune Soumasa, and the speed of each ball was increasing, and the highest speed reached 210km/h, but Mifune Soumasa still took it easily without any difficulty.
“The Minister’s super-fast serve was useless!”
“The president of Rikkai University is so powerful!”
“Yes, you are worthy of being the best in the country!”
The members of Hyotei were all shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s strength.
“Mifune Munemasa’s strength is truly terrifying!”
Kimijima Ikuto saw that Ochi Gekko was testing Mifune Soumasa, but when he saw that Mifune Soumasa easily returned Ochi Gekko’s super-high-speed serve, he felt moved and shocked.
If it were any other player, it would not be so easy to receive Ochi Gekko’s super-high-speed serve, but Mifune Souma easily received Ochi Gekko’s super-high-speed serve.
“The Minister should be using that trick soon!”
Kimijima Ikuto glanced at Ochi Gekkou and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Although Ochi Gekko lost a game at this time, he was extremely calm, as if he was not the one who lost the points just now. If the opponent saw Ochi Gekko like this, they would usually become suspicious, wondering why Ochi Gekko could still be so calm and not even worried about losing points.
But what the opponent doesn’t know is that it is this curiosity that will make him fall into the spiritual realm of Ochi Gekko, and eventually he will slowly lose his composure in the spiritual realm of Ochi Gekko, invisibly affecting his opponent’s every move. This is Ochi Gekko’s “mental assassination.”
“Are you ready to use mental assassination?”
There was a gleam in Mifune Soumasa’s eyes and he smiled. Seeing Ochi Gekko’s calm look, Mifune Soumasa also had the idea of having a fight with her.
Mifune Soumasa is also proficient in mental tennis. His five senses of destruction is a mental skill, so Mifune Soumasa wants to compete with Ochi Gekko to see whose mental tennis is better.
Thinking of this, Mifune Soumasa served the ball quickly.
The ball was hit at high speed, a harsh friction sound was heard, and the tennis ball fell heavily to the ground.
Ochi Gekko did not suspect anything and swung the racket back with a backhand, hitting the flying tennis ball back.
Mifune Souma looked at the flying ball and quickly went to the net. It was another high-speed ball.
The speed of this ball increased by one point, and the ball even left a trail of afterimage, forcing Ochi Gekko to keep her eyes on the tennis ball.
Ochi Gekko looked at the flying tennis ball, took two steps back, and then fought back.
But Mifune Souma seemed to be playing around and had no intention of scoring at all, but instead hit a high-speed ball.
“Um??”
When Yuezhi Yueguang saw this, he found something was wrong, but he couldn’t tell what was wrong.
However, seeing the tennis ball coming straight towards him, Ochi Gekko could only fight back quickly.
Mifune Somasa looked deeply at Ochi Gekkou, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he continued with his previous playing style, hitting high-speed balls.
Mifune Soumasa’s super-high-speed ball left an afterimage, forcing Ochi Gekko to concentrate fully to see it clearly. And most importantly, this speed was exactly on the boundary between what could be seen clearly and what could not be seen completely.
After catching a few balls, Ochi Gekkou’s eyes began to feel tired.
“What exactly does Mifune Munemasa want to do?”
Kimijima Ikuto, who was watching from the side, was a little confused. He thought that Mifune Souma’s strength was more than just that.
“Zongzheng, what are you planning?”
Echizen Ryuya was also murmuring. He knew that with Mifune Soumasa’s world-class strength, the game should not be dragged out for so long. He must be planning something.
“What on earth is he going to do?”
Ochi Gekkou stared at Mifune Soumasa. He wanted to use mental assassination to oppress Mifune Soumasa, but found that his mental assassination seemed to have no effect on Mifune Soumasa.
As the ball fell, the tennis ball bounced out of bounds and Mifune Soumasa scored.
Mifune Souma won the second game.
I have prepared three updates today, and there are two more to go, but they may be updated late, perhaps until the early morning.
44. Mental Assassination vs. Destroying the Five Senses! (2/3) (Old Version)
“Minister Zong Zheng is amazing. He has already won two games just after the match started!”
“Of course, Minister Zongzheng is the best in junior high school tennis!”
“Minister Zong Zheng is the strongest!”
After Mifune Souma won the second game, the players of Rikkai University started talking about it, and everyone had a look of pride on their face.
“Master Zongzheng, you are so awesome!!!”
The girl fans of Mifune Soumasa outside the stadium screamed loudly, calling out Mifune Soumasa’s name one by one, making the passers-by envious.
“Minister Ochi, why don’t you fight back?”
Hyotei’s right choice, Hanouchi Michi, wondered.
Hyotei has already lost two games. If it loses this game again, Hyotei will only be able to advance to the semi-finals.
“The game has just begun, don’t be in a hurry!”
Kimijima Ikuto on the side had no change in expression, but he looked at Mifune Somasa with some confusion. Kimijima Ikuto always felt that Mifune Somasa was planning something, but he couldn’t put this feeling into words.
The third game begins, and Ochi Gekko serves.
Maybe because he lost two games in a row, Ochi Gekko no longer wanted to test Mifune Soumasa’s strength and was ready to use all his strength because he knew that Mifune Soumasa was very strong.
He rhythmically tapped the tennis ball in his hand, then threw it into the sky. Ochi Gekko’s tall body moved slightly, and then he hit the strongest serve he could perform without hesitation.
Mach serves!
A gorgeous serve can certainly shock people, but Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve is fast and unpredictable!
The tennis ball flashed and disappeared from everyone’s sight in an instant.
“It appears, the Minister’s Mach serve!”
“The Minister has begun to show his true strength!”
When the Hyotei players saw Ochi Gekko using Mach serve, they all started cheering loudly because they thought that Mifune Soumasa could not receive Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve.
“Mach serves, Ochi Gekko really can’t be underestimated!”
A hint of surprise appeared on Mitsuya Akuto’s face. This kind of high-speed serve was rare, not only in Rikkai University, but also in the entire junior high school.
“The ball speed reached at least 220km/h!”
Echizen Ryuga said.
“The Minister’s Mach serve reaches a speed of 220 km/h. It is simply a pipe dream for a junior high school student to catch it. Moreover, under the threat of such a serve, Mifune Munemasa will definitely feel nervous!”
“Then the Minister can use mental oppression to cause Mifune Soumasa’s mental breakdown!”
An expression of “as expected” appeared on Kimijima Ikuto’s face, and then he looked at Mifune Soumasa, trying to see an expression of shock on Mifune Soumasa’s face.
But soon Kimijima Ikuto was stunned, because he found that Mifune Somasa still had a faint smile on his face, as if Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve had no effect on him.
A bad premonition came over Kimijima Ikuto, and he realized that he seemed to have missed something.
“Mach’s serve? No, it should be Mach’s serve + mental pressure, but it’s still not enough!”
Mifune Soumasa smiled. He knew very well that Ochi Gekko was using a combination of Mach serve and mental pressure. However, if he wanted to use this trick to deal with him, it would not be enough.
Mifune Somasa used the technique of instant force, quickly came to the landing point of the tennis ball, and hit it backhand with his right hand, and the tennis ball quickly passed in the opposite direction of Ochi Gekko.
“What!”
“How could this happen? The Minister’s Mach serve was actually broken!”
“This must be fake!”
“The Rikkai University chief is so strong!”
The Hyotei players were very surprised when they saw that Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve was hit back by Mifune Souma, because this was the first time they saw Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve being hit back by someone.
“As expected of the number one in the country, what terrifying strength!”
Kimijima Ikuto was also shocked by Mifune Somasa’s strength, because he himself had no way to deal with Ochi Gekko’s Mach serve.
When Ochi Gekko saw that his Mach serve was hit back, he didn’t think much about it, but ran quickly to the landing point and hit back the moment the ball bounced.
For a moment, the two began a tug-of-war at the baseline. The back and forth attacks showed no clear winner, which opened the eyes of the Rikkai crowd outside the court.
Looking at the indifferent Mifune Soumasa opposite him, Ochi Gekko couldn’t help but frown, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
Yue Zhi Yue Guang vaguely felt that his mental suggestion was useless on the other party. To be more precise, this person restrained himself and the other party ignored his mental assassination, and his strength was unfathomable.
Even so, Yuechi Yuekou did not want to lose. Moreover, Yuechi Yuekou believed that as long as one was a human being, there would be weaknesses, but he just hadn’t discovered them yet.
Mifune Soumasa scored, the score was 3-0, and Mifune Soumasa won the third game.
“Minister Zong Zheng is amazing. He won three games so quickly!”
“It looks like Minister Zong Zheng is sure to win this match!”
“That means we at Rikkai University are going to enter the finals!”
After Mifune Souma won the third game, the players of Rikkai University cheered, and everyone had pride on their face.
“Um?”
Ochi Gekkou was stunned for a moment. He felt as if the sense of touch seemed to disappear at the moment he hit the ball. Although it was only for a moment, he felt it clearly.
That’s… a mental attack!
Is Mifune Soumasa’s mental power also so strong?
It seemed so. His extraordinary mental strength was of no use at all when facing Mifune Soumasa. Instead, he almost fell into the opponent’s trap.
Mifune Soumasa’s strength is really terrifying!
Even he, a mental assassin, fell into the trap. If it happened to someone else, I’m afraid it would be even worse!
In the fourth game, Mifune Souma served.
In this round, Mifune Souma did not use any ball skills, but continued to hit high-speed balls, and the speed of the high-speed balls was limited to a certain range, so Ochi Gekko had to watch carefully to see the tennis ball clearly.
Ten minutes later, Ochi Gekko felt his eyes sore and when he looked at the tennis ball, he saw phantoms.
“Moonlight-kun, your vision should be starting to blur!”
Mifune Soumasa looked at Ochi Gekkou and said, then Mifune Soumasa made a backhand shot, and an obscure aura spread, filling the entire court.
Ochi Gekko was startled and his vision began to blur. Staring at Mifune Somasa’s high-speed ball for a long time made Ochi Gekko’s eyes a little overwhelmed.
Ochi Gekko didn’t know why Mifune Souma knew this, but when she saw the flying tennis ball, Ochi Gekko subconsciously swung her racket. Suddenly, Ochi Gekko saw a flash of darkness before her eyes.
And this darkness grew bigger and bigger, and finally swallowed up his light completely. Ochi Moonlight stood there, allowing the tennis ball to pass by him, because Ochi Moonlight could not see any light.
“Moonlight-kun, how’s my mental tennis? You can’t see anything now!”
Mifune Soumasa’s calm voice came, like the voice of a demon.
This is Mifune Soumasa’s method of destroying the five senses. Ochi Gekko has been deprived of her visual senses by Mifune Soumasa.
Forty-five, Defeat Yue Zhiyueguang! (3/3) (Old version)
“My vision!!”
Ochi Gekkou looked up, but all he saw was darkness and he could no longer see anything. After hearing what Mifune Soumasa said, he immediately knew that it was Mifune Soumasa who did it.
“This move is called the Destruction of the Five Senses. Now that your vision has disappeared, I will also deprive you of your hearing and sense of touch!”
Mifune Somasa’s voice echoed throughout the stadium.
When the audience heard what Mifune Soumasa said, they all had stunned faces and looked at Mifune Soumasa in disbelief.
“Destroy the five senses!!!”
“Is it fake?”
“How in the world can there be such ball skills?”
After the audience came to their senses, there was an uproar, and some of them could not believe what Mifune Soumasa said.
Mifune Somasa ignored their comments and continued serving.
A huge hitting sound was heard, and Mifune Sosho broke his normal behavior and hit a powerful ball.
The tennis ball bounced out of bounds and Mifune Soumasa scored.
Seeing the dazed Ochi Gekko, Mifune Souma ignored him and continued to serve, winning the fourth game directly.
“Hyoei’s Minister Ochi Gekko’s vision has really been taken away!!”
“What a terrifying skill, it can actually take away vision!”
“Is this the strength of the number one person in the country?”
The crowd watching looked at Mifune Soumasa in shock. Depriving others of their five senses, this accomplishment could be called a divine skill!
“I didn’t expect that Rikkai University’s president, Mifune Munemasa, is also a master of mental tennis. And his mental tennis is even better than the president’s!”
Kimijima Ikuto looked at everything that happened on the court with an extremely heavy expression. He didn’t expect that Mifune Souma was also proficient in mental tennis, and was even better than Ochi Gekko.
In the following game, Mifune Munemasa continued to hit powerful balls and powerful spinning balls.
Slowly, Yuezhi Yueguang’s arm began to become paralyzed.
Mifune Somasa swung his racket, and the obscure aura spread again, filling the entire arena.
Ochi Gekko swung his racket to catch the ball, but when the racket touched the tennis ball, he found that his sense of touch had disappeared.
“Moonlight-kun, your sense of touch should be gone!”
Mifune Soumasa’s words came again.
Ochi Gekkou’s arm trembled, he clenched his fist and found that just as Mifune Souma said, he seemed to have lost control of his arm and no longer had any sense of touch.
Fear slowly rose from Yuechi Yuekou’s heart and began to erode Yuechi Yuekou’s heart.
Yuezhi Yueguang was very frightened. He could not see or touch anything, and seemed to be isolated from the whole world. This feeling made Yuezhi Yueguang feel as if he was being stared at by a flood or a beast, and he felt uncomfortable all over.
“Moonlight-kun, next is hearing!”
Mifune Soumasa’s voice came again.
This made Yuezhi Yuekou’s arm tremble, and the fear in her heart increased even more. Yuezhi Yuekou was unable to stop this fear at all.
However, Ochi Gekko is the president of Hyotei Academy after all, so Ochi Gekko forced himself to suppress the fear in his heart and continued the game.
Yuezhi Yuekou wanted to pick up the racket, but having lost his vision and sense of touch, Yuezhi Yuekou could only grope on the ground like a blind man.
“Minister Moonlight, don’t give up!”
Watching Ochi Gekko groping for the racket, every member of Hyotei was sad, but they were cheering for Ochi Gekko.
After groping on the ground for a while, Ochi Gekko finally found his racket.
Yuezhi Yuekou hit the ball to the ground. Although, Yuezhi Yuekou could not see or touch, he relied on his remaining sense of hearing to judge everything in the outside world.
Ochi Gekko threw the tennis ball up, listened to the sound of it breaking through the air, and then he swung the racket violently.
A loud hitting sound was heard, and the tennis ball flew out at such a high speed that it even left an afterimage.
Mach serves.
Mifune Somasa quickly rushed to the tennis ball, not giving Ochi Gekkou any hope, and hit the flying tennis ball back with a powerful swing.
“Moonlight-kun, the last thing is hearing!”
This was the last sound that Yuezhi Yueguang heard. Afterwards, Yuezhi Yueguang felt that the whole world became completely silent, and Yuezhi Yueguang could not hear any sound at all.
Yuezhi Yueguang looked up and saw darkness all around, as if it was a dead place.
Yuezhi Yueguang wanted to walk out of this dead place, but before he took a step, he felt something in the darkness staring at him, like a lurking beast, which would tear him apart and devour him as long as Yuezhi Yueguang took a step.
This strong sense of threat made Yuezhi Yueguang dare not act rashly. Endless darkness surged towards Yuezhi Yueguang, making him tremble all over.
The tennis ball bounced out of bounds and Mifune Souma scored, the score was 5-0!
After depriving Ochi Gekkou of his five senses, Mifune Soumasa showed no mercy and fought the game to the end.
In the sixth game, Mifune Soumasa served.
Seeing Ochi Gekko standing there motionless, Mifune Souma served the ball directly.
Ochi Gekko didn’t react at all, and Mifune Souma served directly to score
Mifune Soumasa scores again with a direct serve
Mifune Soumasa scored again with a direct serve
“minister!!”
“Minister Moonlight!!!”
“Wake up, Minister!”
All the members of Hyotei Academy shouted, trying to wake up Ochi Gekko.
But Yuezhi Yueguang couldn’t hear it.
“Is this Minister Munemasa’s mental tennis? How scary!”
The players of Rikkai University were also shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s destruction of his five senses. Ochi Gekko, a national-level master, didn’t even have the strength to resist when facing Mifune Soumasa’s destruction of his five senses. This kind of basketball skill is completely unsolvable.
“As expected of Zongzheng, what a terrifying way to destroy the five senses!”
Echizen Ryomasa was also shocked by Mifune Soumasa’s ability to destroy the five senses. He did not expect that Mifune Soumasa would have such a terrifying mental skill. It was simply a divine skill.
“It’s over, Moonlight-kun!”
Mifune Soumasa murmured as he looked at Ochi Gekko on the opposite side, and Mifune Soumasa was ready to end the game.
Mifune Somasa served the ball and the tennis ball flew towards Ochi Gekko at a high speed.
“Bullfighter. Wake up!”
The members of Hyotei Academy shouted again, trying to wake up Ochi Gekko.
Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen.
The flying tennis ball quickly passed over Ochi Gekko and hit behind Ochi Gekko.
“The game is over, the score is 6-0, Rikkai University’s Mifune Munemasa has won. At the same time, this game is over, and Rikkai University has won the semi-finals with a score of 3:0!”
The referee blew the whistle and announced the final result. Rikkai University defeated Hyotei Gakuen and entered the finals of the Kanto Tournament.
“We lost….We lost”
The Hyotei players who lost the game were all distraught and depressed.
On the other side, the Rikkai University players cheered loudly, and Mifune Souma’s girl fan club screamed even louder.
46. Advance to the Kanto Tournament Finals! (Old Version)
“Wake up, Moonlight-kun!”
With a snap of his fingers, Mifune Somasa awakened Ochi Gekko, who was in a state of destroyed five senses. Ochi Gekko, who was originally in darkness, suddenly saw a ray of light.
Seeing this light, Yuechi Yuekou was ecstatic and rushed quickly towards the direction of the light. Slowly, Yuechi Yuekou heard a sound, and the original dark world was completely shattered.
“Come out?”
Ochi Gekko slowly came to his senses and murmured after seeing the surrounding area. However, Ochi Gekko soon discovered that something was wrong. He saw that all of his Hyotei teammates had frustrated looks on their faces, while the people from Rikkai University were cheering constantly. Even his opponent Mifune Soumasa was standing there, looking at him with a smile.
Ochi Moonlight looked at the score board and a bright red score of 6-0 appeared in Ochi Moonlight’s eyes.
“I actually lost! And I was swept 6-0!”
There was a look of disbelief in Ochi Moonlight’s eyes, and finally memories came to him like a tide, allowing Ochi Moonlight to remember everything that had happened.
“Moonlight-kun, I won this game!”
Mifune Somasa came over with a smile on his face and held out his hand.
Ochi Gekko remained silent, and finally showed a bitter smile on his face. He indeed lost the game, and it was a crushing defeat, as he was shut out by Mifune Soumasa. From this, Ochi Gekko also realized how terrifying Mifune Soumasa was.
“I didn’t expect you to be able to play mental tennis, and your mental tennis is so strong that I am ashamed of myself!”
Seeing Mifune Somasa extending his hand, Ochi Gekko and Mifune Somasa shook hands and said sincerely that this game made Ochi Gekko convinced.
Through this match with Mifune Somasa, Ochi Gekko realized that he still has a long way to go on the road of spiritual tennis.
Just when the game between Rikkai University and Hyotei Gakuen ended and Rikkai University successfully advanced to the finals, Yamabuki Junior High School and Rokkaku Junior High School, who were competing in another venue, were still in the competition.
The scores between Yamabuki Junior High School and Rokkaku Junior High School are currently in a stalemate, with both teams having two wins and two losses. The final singles match is now underway, with both teams sending out players from their respective team captains.
“The match between Rikkai University and Hyotei Gakuen is over. I heard that Rikkai University advanced to the finals with a score of 3:0.”
“Really? It’s over so quickly, Rikkai University is just too strong!”
“Of course it’s true. I saw it with my own eyes.”
The discussions of some people outside the stadium reached Irie Kanata’s ears. He must win this game so that he can advance to the finals and compete with Rikkai University.
At the beginning of the game, Irie Kanata launched a fierce offensive, making the captain of Rokkaku Junior High School unable to resist at all and could only defend himself with difficulty.
Since Kanata Irie was able to become the captain of the tennis club, his strength is naturally beyond doubt. The captain of Rokkaku Junior High School is no match for Kanata Irie.
“The game is over, the score is 6-2, Yamabuki Junior High School wins!”
Kanata Irie defeated the captain of Rokkaku Junior High School, and Yamabuki Junior High School advanced to the finals with a record of three wins and two losses. This made all the players of Yamabuki Junior High School very happy, except Kanata Irie, who was not happy, but very solemn.
Because in the final of the next Kanto tournament, Yamabuki Junior High School’s opponent was the Kanto overlord, Rikkai University. Irie Kanata still remembers that match, the match between him and the Rikkai University tennis club captain Mifune Soumasa, in which he lost miserably to Mifune Soumasa with a score of 6:0.
Moreover, Irie Kanata knew that the president of Rikkai University, Mifune Munemasa, was a monster with world-class strength, which made Irie Kanata feel very solemn.
“The results are out, our opponent in the finals is Yamabuki Junior High School!”
After the match with Hyotei Academy, the people from Rikkai University did not leave immediately, but were waiting for the result of the match between Yamabuki Junior High School and Rokkaku Junior High School. The next opponent in the final would be one of these two schools.
Now the results are finally out. Their opponent in the Kanto competition finals is Yamabuki Junior High School in the Tokyo area.
Yamabuki Junior High School is also a strong tennis school. The school is most famous for its doubles. The doubles of Yamabuki Junior High School are well-known throughout the country.
Moreover, the coach of Yamabuki Junior High School, Mr. Ban, is also a famous coach. Under his guidance, Yamabuki Junior High School has achieved good results in recent years.
What Rikkai University lacks now is doubles. Apart from the ace doubles pair of the Mutsu brothers, the other doubles combinations of Rikkai University are composed of singles players. They have no problem dealing with ordinary doubles combinations, but if they face national-level doubles, it will not be so easy to win.
The final of the Kanto competition will be held the day after tomorrow. Mifune Soumasa and his friends took the bus back to Kanagawa Rikkai University Junior High School, and Yamabuki Junior High School and his friends naturally returned to Yamabuki as well.
In the Yamabuki Junior High School tennis club, the rest of the players have already left, leaving only Irie Kanata still training.
For the other players of Yamabuki Junior High School, it doesn’t matter whether they win or lose tomorrow’s game against Rikkai University. They have already achieved such good results. Moreover, the strength of Rikkai University is obvious to all. It is basically impossible for them to defeat Rikkai University.
But for Irie Kanata, he attaches great importance to the competition the day after tomorrow. Irie Kanata hopes that Yamabuki Junior High School can win the Kanto competition.
Mifune Somasa sat on a chair, looking at all the members of the tennis club who were training enthusiastically, and felt very satisfied. However, he was still thinking about the next game with Yamabuki Junior High School. Yamabuki Junior High School is most famous for its doubles.
According to the original plan, the second doubles player they would send out this time would be Shuji Taneshima and Ichiro Suzuki, and the first doubles player would be the Mutsu brothers, but Mifune Souma always felt that it was not safe enough.
Shuji Taneshima and Ichiro Suzuki were both singles players originally, and now if they were to form a doubles team, they would have no problem against ordinary doubles teams, but if they were to face the national-level doubles team of Yamabuki Junior High School, it would be a bit unsafe.
“Come here for a moment, Zhongdao. I have something to discuss with you.”
Mifune Somasa called Tanejima Shuji and the other three to come over.
“Mong Zheng, what’s the matter with you calling us here?” asked Echizen Ryuya.
“What are your thoughts on the next match against Yamabuki Junior High School? Yamabuki Junior High School’s doubles are at a national level. They entered the national tournament last year with their doubles.”
“We at Rikkai University have a lot of singles players now, but only one real doubles team. We are still missing a doubles team!”
Mifune Soumasa was a little distressed. He knew that Rikkai University would have two national-level doubles pairs in the future, Marui Bunta and Jackal Kuwabara, and Niou Masaharu and Yagyu Hiroshi, but they were still in elementary school now!
“It takes time to develop a well-coordinated doubles team, but our weakness at Rikkai University is definitely in doubles.”
Shuji Tanejima also frowned. This problem was not easy to solve.
“In the next match against Yamabuki Junior High School, I think it’s not safe to let Taneshima and Suzuki play as the second doubles team!”
Mifune Soumasa said.
“Zongzheng, if you have any ideas, just say it directly!”
“Actually, my plan is that in the match against Yamabuki, Ryuga and I will form a doubles pair, and I will play as doubles team two. As for doubles team one, it will still be Yuuho and Yuuma. Singles team three will be played by Oni, and singles team two will be played by Akuto. Taneshima will play singles team one, and Suzuki will be the substitute!”
“If you have no objection, it is decided!”
Mifune Somasa expressed his plan.
“Okay, now that we’ve decided to form a doubles team, let’s start practicing from now on! There are still two days until the match against Yamabuki Junior High School. The time may be a little tight, but it should be enough for you!”
“Doubles is different from singles. Doubles focuses more on cooperation. The tacit understanding between each other is very important. It is best to be able to communicate with each other!”
Mitsuya Akuto said.
“Okay, in that case, let’s start practicing!”
On the Rikkai University tennis court, two groups of people stood on their respective courts. Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga formed a doubles team, and their opponents were the Mutsu brothers, the ace doubles team of Rikkai University. They were going to practice doubles combination.
There will be no update tomorrow, January 27th, because Xiao K has to take a train back home and may be on the train all day. So Xiao K decided not to update on January 27th and will update until the 28th. I hope you can understand. At the same time, Xiao K also hopes that you will pay attention to safety on your way home for the New Year and have a safe journey!
Forty-seven. Tatekai Dai vs. Yamabuki! (old version)
After two days of practice, the doubles duo of Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga have already taken shape. Although they cannot be compared with professional doubles duos, they are more than capable of handling the Kanto tournament.
“Tomorrow we will play against Yamabuki Junior High School. We can only win this game and not lose. In order to deal with Yamabuki Junior High School, I have made some changes to the roster. Doubles No. 2 will be played by Yuuho and Yuuma, doubles No. 1 will be played by me and Ryuga, singles No. 3 will be played by Oni, singles No. 2 will be played by Akuto, singles No. 1 will be played by Taneshima, and Suzuki will be the substitute for this game!”
Mifune Soumasa said to the regulars including Taneshima Shuji that Mifune Soumasa originally wanted to play as doubles team two, but then thought about it and felt that it would be better for them to play as doubles team one, so he put the Mutsu brothers as doubles team two.
Tokyo Tennis Park.
The finals of the Kanto competition have begun. There are two schools competing in this final, namely Rikkai University High School and Yamabuki Junior High School.
The final of the Kanto competition naturally attracted students from many schools to watch. Many schools in the Tokyo area had students coming to watch the game. After all, the venue of the competition was in Tokyo, not far away.
Yamabuki Junior High School is also a strong tennis school. The school is most famous for its doubles sport.
The coach of Yamabuki Junior High School, Mr. Ban, is also a famous coach. Under his guidance, Yamabuki Junior High School has achieved good results in recent years.
“Mr. Ban, do you think we can win today’s game? Our opponent is Rikkai University High School!”
At Yamabuki Junior High School, Deputy Director Akiba Momiji asked an old man, who was the tennis coach of Yamabuki Junior High School, Ban Lao.
“Why, Hongye, are you scared?”
The old man said with a smile.
“After all, our opponent is Rikkai University. They are the overlord of Kanto and have won the Kanto Tournament for more than ten consecutive times!”
Qiu Ting Hongye said helplessly.
“Haha, as long as we work hard, it doesn’t matter if we lose the game. Even if we lose the game, we have already obtained a ticket to participate in the national competition!”
Ban Lao didn’t care and said that winning or losing the game was not a big deal. After all, victory and defeat were common in the military. He had been a tennis coach for so many years that he no longer cared about winning or losing.
Moreover, Ban Lao also knew that Rikkai University had two talented and powerful guys, Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga. It would be very difficult for Yamabuki to defeat them!
“Rikkai University High School is indeed strong, especially their singles. In my opinion, they are already at the top of the junior high school students. It can even be said that they are invincible. After all, their captain, Mifune Munemasa, is known as the best player in the junior high school!”
“But correspondingly, their doubles are not good. They only have one real doubles pair, and the other doubles are temporarily formed by singles players. However, they defeated the other players with their own strong strength!”
“Our doubles team is not as strong as Rikkai University, but in terms of coordination and tacit understanding, we are better than them. Therefore, it is not impossible for us to defeat them!”
As expected of Mr. Ban, who has been a coach for decades, he has a very sharp eye and can immediately see where Rikkai University’s shortcomings are.
After listening to Mr. Ban’s words, the contestants from Yamabuki Junior High School finally regained some confidence.
When they knew that their opponent was Rikkai University Affiliated High School, they felt fear in their hearts. What was Rikkai University? It was the overlord of Kanto! How could they possibly beat Rikkai University? Moreover, the minister of Rikkai University had crushed their own minister a while ago.
Such thoughts make them lose half the battle before the game even starts. When two armies fight, the brave one wins, and the same is true for a game. If you think you are not good enough and cannot beat the opponent before the game even starts, your momentum will be lost, and the final result can only be a complete defeat.
Soumasa Mifune and his team came here again from Kanagawa. Today’s final match against Yamabuki Junior High School will be held at nine in the morning.
“The Kanto Tournament finals are about to begin, please enter as soon as possible!”
“Let’s go, let’s enter!”
Compared to the nervousness of Yamabuki Junior High School, Mifune Soumasa and his team were quite open and confident. When the momentum of both sides was compared, Yamabuki Junior High School immediately fell into a disadvantage, which made the players of Yamabuki Junior High School even more nervous.
“I hope we have a good game today!” Mifune Somasa smiled and looked at Irie Kanata, the captain of the tennis club of Yamabuki Junior High School.
“Please give me your guidance, Zongzheng-kun!”
Irie Kanata also responded with a smile.
The game started soon. The first game was doubles number two. Mutsu Yuuho and Mutsu Yuma walked to the court with their rackets.
When the coach of Yamabuki Junior High School, Ban Lao, saw Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma on the court, he couldn’t help but frowned. He didn’t expect that Rikkai University would change its team formation and put their ace doubles, the Mutsu brothers, in the second doubles.
“The match begins. The winner will be decided in one game. Rikkai Continent’s Oku Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma will serve.” the referee announced.
The doubles combination of Mutsu Yuubu and Mutsu Yuma, Mutsu Yuubu is in the first half and Mutsu Yuma is in the second half. Mutsu Yuma in the second half will serve first.
The one who served was Mutsu Yuma. He didn’t hold back and used his true strength directly. He wanted to end the game quickly and served the ball very quickly.
Before the second doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School could react, the tennis ball had already landed on their court.
“Did you see what happened with that ball? It was so fast!”
“Yeah, there was no time to react. The doubles player from Rikkai University is so amazing.”
“As expected of Rikkai University, the overlord of Kanto!”
Mutsu Yuuma served again, and the speed of his serve made it difficult for the players from Yamabuki Junior High School to handle it.
The tennis ball hit the ground again and the second doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School looked very unhappy. They couldn’t even see the opponent’s serve clearly, so how could they hit it back?
Mutsu Yuma’s serve put a lot of pressure on the second doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School, and they even had cold sweat on their foreheads.
With the help of Mutsu Yuma’s serve, Rikkai University quickly won the serve game. The whole game took only three minutes, which surprised many people.
The onlookers were shocked by the strength displayed by Mutsu Yuma.
Next it was Yamabuki Junior High School’s turn to serve, but because Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma were too imposing, the second doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School was greatly affected. His competitive state was very poor, and his serve was also unsatisfactory, and he was easily counterattacked by Mutsu Yuho and Mutsu Yuma.
As the score fell behind point by point, the second doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School became more and more irritable, his competitive state became worse and worse, and the score gap began to gradually widen!
Ban Lao sighed inwardly, the two sides were simply not on the same level, Yamabuki was bound to lose this time.
Needless to say, Yamabuki will definitely lose this game.
The current Yamabuki cannot be compared with the Kanto overlord like Rikkai University.
Many students who came to watch the game couldn’t believe it was true. You know, Yamabuki Junior High School’s doubles team is very strong, but now they lost to Rikkai University with a score of 6:0. This is simply unbelievable.
“It looks like the champion of this year’s Kanto Tournament will be from Rikkai University again!”
“That’s right! You are worthy of being the overlord of Kanto!”
The crushing defeat of the second doubles team of Yamabuki Junior High School also surprised Ban Laoda. In his opinion, their doubles team of Yamabuki Junior High School might lose to Rikkai University, but they would definitely not lose so badly. After all, their doubles team of Yamabuki is also famous throughout the country!
The doubles match number two was over, and next was the doubles match number one. Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga had already done their warm-up exercises and walked into the court after the second match started.
“Mr. Ban, we meet again!”
Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga first went to greet Yamabuki’s coach Banlao, after all, he was their elder.
“I didn’t expect you two little guys would play doubles!”
Ban Lao smiled bitterly. He didn’t expect that Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga would be the doubles team this time. In this doubles match, Yamabuki’s chances of winning were very slim!
“I didn’t expect him to play doubles! This is trouble!”
Irie Kanata said with a serious expression. He did not expect that Mifune Munemasa would be the leader of the doubles this time.
“What? The president of Rikkai University is actually the number one doubles player!”
The appearance of Mifune Soumasa made people from other schools very puzzled. After all, in their opinion, the captain of Rikkai University’s tennis club was a strong singles player, and as the captain, he usually served as the number one singles player.
48. Tacit cooperation! (Old version)
Many people were naturally surprised to see Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga appear as the number one doubles player, but how the players were arranged for the match was the Rikkai University Tennis Club’s own business, so they naturally had no right to interfere.
“The match begins, Rikkai University’s Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga serve!”
As the referee’s voice sounded, the second doubles match No. 1 finally began. The first to serve were Rikkai University’s Soumasa Mifune and Ryuga Echizen.
Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga looked at each other and nodded slightly. Then Mifune Soumasa walked directly to the baseline of the court, while Echizen Ryoga walked to the net. The two of them moved in a straight line, and Echizen Ryoga was even half squatting.
“This formation looks so familiar, I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere before?”
“Two people in a straight line?”
“Isn’t this the Australian formation that the Mutsu brothers used during the previous match between Rikkai University and Hyotei Academy?!”
The formation of Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryomasa seemed very familiar to many people. They seemed to have seen it somewhere before, but they couldn’t tell where.
It was not until someone pointed out that this formation was used in the match between Rikkai University and Hyotei Gakuen that some people realized that Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga were now using the Australian formation.
The Australian formation that Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga are currently performing is the result of the past two days of training. This is the Australian formation they learned from the Mutsu brothers. Moreover, Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga not only learned the Australian formation, but also learned a lot of other doubles formations.
Therefore, Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga were prepared to use all the formations they had learned in this game.
“Minister Irie, do you know why Mifune Soumasa and the others are doing this? Can this be used in doubles?”
Seeing the formation displayed by Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga, Akiba Momiji was very curious, but because he did not watch the match between Rikkai University and Hyotei, he did not know that Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga were now displaying the Australian formation.
“Rikkai University is now using the Australian formation!”
Just as Irie Kanata was about to answer, a slightly old voice sounded. Akiba Momiji and Irie Kanata turned around and found that the voice came from their coach, Ban Lao.
“Mr. Ban, what is this Australian formation you’re talking about?” Akiba Momiji asked Yamabuki’s coach, Mr. Ban.
“The Australian formation is a very powerful formation, but it also requires strong tacit understanding and cooperation. It uses one baseline and one net. Two players stand at the baseline and the net respectively, forming a straight line. When playing, the players can move left and right to confuse the opponent!”
Ban Lao explained to Akiba Momiji and Irie Kanata what the Australian formation was.
On the court, because Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga were standing in a straight line, the number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School had no way of knowing where the ball was coming from and could not prepare in advance.
Mifune Soumasa finally serves the ball!
The tennis ball flew quickly to the right, and the number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School immediately ran to the right, trying to hit the ball back.
However, what shocked the number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School was that the ball did not bounce after it hit the ground, but instead rolled towards the net. Such an unreasonable thing actually happened!
Generally speaking, a tennis ball will bounce after landing so that it can be hit back, but now the tennis ball did not bounce at all, but rolled directly, which means that this kind of ball is unstoppable.
This is the Zero serve developed by Mifune Somasa based on Tezuka Kunimitsu’s Zero serve in the original work. The difference is that Mifune Somasa’s Zero serve has been improved so that his Zero serve will not cause damage to the wrist like Tezuka Kunimitsu’s Zero serve.
According to the rules of tennis, if the ball is received before it hits the ground, the opponent will be awarded a point. However, the zero serve is a tennis ball that does not bounce, so there is no solution.
“Rikkai University scores, 15-0!” the referee’s voice sounded.
Mifune Soumasa scored a point directly with a zero-style serve, but this kind of serve surprised many people. This zero-style serve can almost be said to be at a professional level, but now it was hit by a first-year junior high school student. How can it not be shocking?
“This little fellow Zong Zheng is worthy of being called a ‘demon’, he is truly amazing!”
Coach Yamabuki’s companion smiled bitterly and shook his head. Mifune Soumasa’s zero serve surprised him greatly, and he was also surprised by Mifune Soumasa’s talent.
It was Mifune Somasa’s turn to serve again, but this time he did not use the Zero serve, but an ordinary serve, so the number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School could naturally return the ball.
The moment the ball was hit back, Echizen Ryouga moved, intercepted the ball directly in front of the net, and won another point.
With the tacit cooperation between Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga, they won the first game easily. It didn’t take Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryoga much time to win this game. They won the first game in less than two minutes.
In the next game, it was the turn of the No. 1 doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School to serve. Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga immediately changed their formation. They both came to the net at the same time, ready to intercept.
“Huh? Two people surfing the Internet at the same time?”
The number one doubles player of Yamabuki Junior High School was a little surprised. He saw Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga standing in front of the net at the same time. He wondered what Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga were going to do?
However, the number one doubles player from Yamabuki Junior High School did not think much about it and served directly.
The number one doubles player from Yamabuki Junior High School hit a high ball, trying to get past Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga and hit the ball directly behind them.
Mifune Somasa quickly moved to the back and hit the opponent’s high ball back. The opponent hit back again, and Echizen Ryuga intercepted directly in front of the net to score another point.
“Is this… really a temporary combination?”
“What a tacit understanding!”
Everyone at Yamabuki Junior High School was shocked. Wasn’t it said that this doubles team from Rikkai University was a temporary combination of singles players?
But now it seems that this is not the case at all! The doubles duo of Mifune Sosho and Echizen Ryuga cooperated so well, how could they be a temporary combination?
“Zong Zheng and Long Ya are indeed good friends. They work together very well.”
Tanejima Shuji said.
“As expected of you, Minister!”
Mitsuya Akuto also murmured.
On the court, Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga relied on their tacit cooperation to win another game from Yamabuki Junior High School.
Lihai takes the lead!
In the next few games, the combination of Mifune Somasa and Echizen Ryuga, through tacit cooperation, defeated Yamabuki Junior High School without any resistance.
“What an amazing doubles match! I thought Mifune Souma’s singles were already amazing, but I didn’t expect his doubles to be this amazing as well!”
Kanata Irie was watching the game on the court and said in surprise that he was shocked by the tacit cooperation between Somasa Mifune and Ryuga Echizen.
The referee’s whistle sounded and the result of the match was announced. Yamabuki’s number one doubles player was swept and shut out by Mifune Soumasa and Echizen Ryuga.
In the doubles match number one, Yamabuki Junior High School, which has always been famous for its doubles, was badly defeated by Rikkai University and failed to win even a single game.
“Mr. Ban, didn’t you say that Rikkai University’s doubles team was a makeshift team? We still have a chance to win, but why are we losing so badly now?”
Qiu Ting Hongye looked at Ban Lao.
Ban Lao’s originally smiling face suddenly froze. He himself had not expected that the doubles pair of Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga of Rikkai University would be so powerful. They cooperated very well and could be called a national-level doubles combination.
He had said before that Yamabuki Junior High School still had a chance to beat Rikkai University in doubles, but the result now slapped him in the face, as they lost the match miserably.
“Hongye, I just said it’s possible, but this doubles team from Rikkai University still surprised me. I didn’t expect it to be these two little guys, Mifune Souma and Echizen Ryuga!”
The old man regained his smiling expression.
“We can’t lose the next game. If we lose again, Rikkai University will win the Kanto Championship!”
Irie Kanata murmured, he lost even the doubles, if he lost the singles too, he would have no hope of winning the Kanto tournament. Fortunately, the third in singles was Irie Kanata himself, and the third in singles of Rikkai University was a guy called Onijūjiro.
Because Onijūjiro is not famous yet, everyone in Irie Kanata thinks that Onijūjiro is not that strong.
But…will the result really be what he imagined?
