Chapter 266 'Tezuka Domain' and 'Phantom'
"boom--"
"boom--"
"..."
The sound of hitting the ball continued to sound on the court, and Yukimura and Tezuka also kept running and hitting back on the court.
The evenly matched performance of the two made the audience excited to watch.
The score on the field increased alternately, but no matter what, the R national team always led by one point.
When he felt that it was about the same, Yukimura took the initiative to leave the "darkness" and returned to the light.
"Thank you~ It seems that my trick is quite useful..." Yukimura glanced at the score at the end of the match, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but Tezuka on the opposite side had a vague premonition. .
"What do you mean?" A hoarse voice came from Tezuka's mouth. He felt his throat was dry after not speaking for a long time.
"By actively depriving myself of my five senses and only retaining an 'intuition' about tennis, this is one of my new tricks - 'zero-sense tennis', which is specially designed to deal with 'seamless' tennis. What do you think?" Yukimura looked at Tezuka with a smile.
"...Very good." After a moment of silence, Tezuka still gave a positive evaluation. He had to admit that Yukimura Seiichi was a genius, and he lived up to the title of 'Son of God'.
During the conversation between the two, Yukimura had already scored three goals... With just one goal, he could win the first game.
There was a solemn look in Tezuka's eyes. As Yukimura exchanged the racket with his left and right hands, Tezuka hit a ball in the opposite direction. Unexpectedly, when the tennis ball approached, Yukimura changed the hand holding the racket again.
"boom--"
The tennis ball landed at Tezuka's feet, and what followed was the referee's words: "In the first game of singles two, R national team Seiichi Yukimura won 7-5!"
"The R national team won the first game!"
As soon as the referee finished speaking, cheers and cheers erupted from the audience.
……
Seeing Tezuka returning to the bench, the members of the German team didn't know what to say, and the supporters of the German team in the audience began to question Tezuka's nationality and ability.
"That guy is from R country!"
"Is it really okay to leave the key singles to him?"
"How can a player from country R seriously contribute to the German team?!"
"Maybe I will lose the game on purpose so that my country's team can advance smoothly!"
"..."
The members of the German team sitting on the player bench also heard these words. Although under the influence of Polk, they accepted Tezuka to represent the German team, but... the prejudice against Tezuka has always existed in other countries. In people's minds, there is just a more or less difference.
Looking at Tezuka, who was sitting on the bench with an expressionless face adjusting his shoelaces, QP didn't know what to say, so he turned to look at Coach Retru.
Unlike others, Coach Retru has no prejudice against Tezuka. He also knows that Tezuka will not let go of his opponents, and what hinders Tezuka is the pain of fighting against his former companion, but... This is exactly what it takes to become a professional player.
Listening to Letru's words, he also felt the other party's concern. After the break, the moment he stood up and stepped onto the court, Tezuka told Letru that he was ready and reassured Letru.
Looking at Tezuka's back, Retru saw determination and sadness in it.
……
The second game of singles two began quickly.
Yukimura continued the alternating right-hand counterattack style from the first game and maintained the momentum of the first game. He was keenly aware of Tezuka's 'zero sinker'.
Relying on his indomitable momentum, Yukimura scored three points in a row not long after the game started.
The huge auditorium was full of people shouting for Yukimura. The audience from country R was quite proud to tell the audience from other countries about Yukimura's experience in all official competitions, and told the other party Yukimura's title of 'Son of God'.
And slowly, Yukimura's name no longer appeared on the field, and the audience began to shout Yukimura's nickname-'Son of God'.
Seeing Yukimura's wonderful performance, Kirihara jumped up excitedly and danced to support Yukimura on the field.
Although Yukimura is already far ahead, Sanada, who is obviously suffering from 'Tezuka PTSD', still looks nervous. He feels that it is not time to relax yet.
"No matter what the current situation is, we can never relax! Our opponent is Tezuka Kunimitsu... If you are careless, you will easily lose! Do you understand? Akaya!" Sanada looked at Kirihara with a serious face, while Kirihara, who was being watched by Sanada, could only remain silent. Put down your hands and stand up straight.
Amamiya Arashi and Nioh, who were sitting in the first row, winked and didn't know what they were communicating. Marui silently lowered his presence. After all, he didn't want to be scolded by Sanada at all.
Yanagi took out his pen tiredly, turned to Sanada's page and recorded something again, planning to show it to Yukimura after he finished the game.
……
In the audience, although they knew that Yukimura's dominance was a good thing for the R national team, Seigaku's Momojo, Kikumaru and others looked at Tezuka who was losing ground and felt very uncomfortable.
Although Tezuka is their enemy now...but they are also friends! How can the relationship that has been in Qingxue for so long be broken off so easily?
On the German team, Sigmund shouted excitedly to Tezuka on the field, "The sponsor said it! If you lose this game..."
"Sigmund! We are still in the middle of the game, can you not disturb the players?" Before he could finish his words, Polk stood up and interrupted his roar.
"But, but..." Sigmund, who wanted to invest in Tezuka, was still a little unhappy. If Tezuka lost this game, he would have no way to explain to those capitalists.
"Look at Tezuka's expression now, Sigmund. Since Tezuka came to Germany, I have never seen him look so happy."
Polk's eyes signaled Sigmund to look towards the field.
Although Tezuka on the field seemed a little weak in the face of Yukimura's attack, his face showed a look of joy without knowing it.
Facing Yukimura's menacing attack, Tezuka quickly launched the 'Tezuka Phantom'. However, it was useless for Yukimura.
'Tezuka Phantom' is, after all, the reverse application of 'Tezuka Domain', so the 'Mirror of Mirage' that can seal 'Tezuka Domain' also has a similar effect on 'Tezuka Phantom'.
After seeing Tezuka decide to use 'Tezuka Phantom', Yukimura also decided to use 'Mirror of Mirage' again.
Just as Yukimura thought, his 'Mirror of Mirage' successfully made 'Tezuka Phantom' lose its original effect, and the tennis ball would not pop out of the court.
Seeing that Kirihara was about to get excited again, Atobe keenly noticed something was wrong.
He noticed that Tezuka had stayed in one position for a long time without moving!
