Prince of Tennis: The Emperor's Eye

Chapter 3



The next day, when Akashi's luxury car arrived in front of the stadium again, there were only 20 minutes left before the start of the semi-finals. Akashi got out of the car and walked towards the stadium with a tennis bag on his back. After arriving at the rest area, he found that he was the last one to arrive. After Akashi's reminder yesterday, Tezuka Kunimitsu did not lose the qualification for the competition due to lateness as in the original work. He did warm-up exercises expressionlessly and adjusted his state. ...

At this time, Yukimura and Sanada stood up and walked over after seeing Akashi coming in. Yukimura introduced himself:

"Hello! My name is Yukimura Seiichi, and my companion is Sanada Genichirō. We are both from Kanagawa. We came to Tokyo to compete with masters like you. I hope we can have a pleasant competition~"

Akashi also reached out his hand and shook hands with Yukimura, and simply said hello, and said:

"I am also looking forward to the game with you, and I hope you won't let me down!"

Sanada frowned after hearing this, and couldn't help but say:

"Really Too lax!"

Yukimura smiled faintly and shook his head at Sanada, indicating that everything depends on the game. At the same time, Akashi slowly walked towards Tezuka Kunimitsu who had been active on the side, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar iceberg face and said:

"It seems that you heard my reminder yesterday. I hope we can have a wonderful game today!"

After hearing this, a gleam flashed in Tezuka Kunimitsu's eyes, and he said expressionlessly:

"Thank you for your reminder yesterday. My name is Tezuka Kunimitsu. Let's not be careless!"

After hearing this, Akashi secretly laughed in his heart. Can he only say that he is worthy of being Tezuka? I feel that if I were in the same tennis club with Sanada, I should be able to get along very well. Thinking of this, Akashi couldn't help but glance at Sanada and Yukimura, and without saying anything, he turned around and started his own warm-up exercises.

Soon, the broadcasting of the stadium sounded:

"The semi-finals of the Tokyo Junior Tennis Open officially begin. Please welcome the first players, Genichirō Sanada and Kunimitsu Tezuka, to enter the court!"

Sanada and Tezuka stood up at the same time, picked up their rackets and stood on both sides of the court, waiting for the referee's instructions to serve. The referee raised a hand and pointed at Genichirō Sanada and said:

"The game is over, and Genichirō Sanada will serve first!"

Sanada retreated to the baseline, took out the tennis ball and bounced it on the ground a few times, then threw it high. After the tennis ball landed in the right position, he swung his racket fiercely. With a sound of hitting the ball, the tennis ball quickly passed the net and came to Tezuka's half of the court.

Although the ball speed may be very fast for ordinary young players, it is not particularly difficult for players of Tezuka's level to receive it. Tezuka quickly came to the return point, and after the tennis ball bounced, he quickly swung his racket and hit the tennis ball back.

After that, the two began to play against each other quickly. Neither of them used any skills at the beginning. They just relied on basic tennis to attack. The two of them went back and forth, neither of them gave in. Slowly, the ball speed became faster and faster!

The audience could only see a yellow shadow flashing back and forth on the court. In the end, Tezuka was more skilled. He took advantage of Sanada's fleeting flaw and quickly hit back. With a crisp sound, the tennis ball flashed past Sanada's feet and flew out of the court.

"0-15"

Sanada took a deep breath, his face became more serious, and threw the tennis ball high again. With a sound of hitting the ball, the tennis ball had passed through the air at a faster speed and came to the left corner of Tezuka. After the tennis ball touched the ground, it bounced quickly and flew out of the court.

But at this time, Tezuka had come close, and the racket blocked the way of the tennis ball. At the moment when the tennis ball and the racket touched, a strong force hit Tezuka's left arm through the racket. Tezuka narrowed his eyes slightly, and then increased his strength to hit the tennis ball back.

The two started a quick attack again, still going back and forth, refusing to give up any ball. In the end, Tezuka caught a slight hesitation in Sanada's footsteps and hit the tennis ball to an angle that was difficult for Sanada to hit back. The tennis ball quickly crossed the court.

"0-30"

The referee's voice sounded again, and Tezuka won the second point of this game. At this time, Sanada's heart could not help but have a great fluctuation. This was the first time he met an opponent who could easily beat him in basic tennis besides Yukimura. Thinking of this, Sanada secretly made a decision in his heart!

"Tezuka Kunimitsu, huh? I remember you. If you think that just now is all our strength, then you are wrong, Tezuka Kunimitsu! Let me take you

Hit the abyss of defeat! It's as fast as the wind! "

After hearing Sanada's loud roar, two tennis ball collisions sounded in succession. The tennis ball instantly passed through Tezuka's half of the court and flew directly out of the court. Even Tezuka couldn't react in the first time, which made his pupils shrink slightly, and his vigilance against Sanada increased by one point.

"15-30"

As the referee's score sounded, the audience on the sidelines exploded, staring at everything that happened on the court with wide eyes. Many spectators felt a flash in front of their eyes, and then the boy named Sanada scored. It was really incredible. At this time, the speedometer on the sidelines also showed the speed of Sanada's serve just now, 189 kilometers per hour!

It is almost close to 190 kilometers per hour. You have to know that Sanada is only 12 years old now. It is impossible to play at this age. It is already very remarkable to serve like this, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an absolute genius!

At this time, Sanada has taken out a tennis ball, tossed it high, and hit it as fast as the wind again! And his arm blurred for a moment when he swung and hit the tennis ball, making it impossible to judge the landing point of the tennis ball by the hitting action.

The tennis ball once again flew to Tezuka's baseline position at a very fast speed, but this time Tezuka was fully prepared, and he quickly flashed to the landing point of the tennis ball, and swung the racket to hit the tennis ball back in a half-volley manner when the tennis ball bounced!

Sanada was secretly shocked to see that Tezuka broke his fast serve in the second ball, but this did not affect his mentality. He still quickly came to the return point and hit the ball again as fast as the wind. Wind, yes, fast as wind is not just a serve skill, it can also be used when returning the ball.

But it was difficult for Tezuka to achieve the effect of the first ball. Tezuka came to the net at a faster speed, raised the racket behind his head, and quickly hit the flying tennis ball. In an instant, the power and rotation of the tennis ball quickly weakened, and it slowly flew over the net and fell towards Sanada's half.

Seeing this, Sanada also quickly came to the net, waiting for the rebound of the tennis ball. However, after the tennis ball fell to the ground, it did not rebound as Sanada thought, but instead quickly rotated, and then slowly rolled backwards until it touched the net and stopped!

"15-40"

At this time, Sanada stared at the tennis ball blankly, without saying a word, and the audience beside the court also became There was total silence, all of them were amazed by Tezuka's short zero ball, even the referee who just announced the score swallowed his saliva.

Even with his eyes, he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene on the court. Of course, the referee was not shocked by the ball skills themselves, but that the person who played such a ball skill was just a 12-year-old boy!

Sanada, who returned to the baseline to serve, had thrown all his contempt behind him at this moment, and looked at Tezuka with great solemnity, slowly raising Tezuka to a position similar to Yukimura in his heart.

After hitting the wind again, Sanada used 120% of his concentration to launch the last attack of this round with Tezuka. Unfortunately, facing Tezuka's sharp offense and defense and the gap in the basic five dimensions, Sanada, who relied on the wind, still failed to win this point.

"GAME! Tezuka Kunimitsu! 1-0!"

As the referee's voice fell, Tezuka successfully broke in the first game and won the first round of the semi-finals!
