The Prince of Tennis: The Quincy of Rikkai University

Chapter 244 A completely different confrontation

"Who should we send to our first game? Do you have any ideas?" Before the first game started, Byodoin asked Yuki.

At the moment, both sides have not finalized the players for the first game, and the first game is crucial, so they will definitely need to send out strong players to take the lead.

"Let me think about it..."

Maya Yuuki is also thinking about this problem at this time. If it were according to the original situation, it would be Mifune Nyudo who would name Duke Watanabe and Fuji Shusuke to go into battle first.

But in the current situation, Mifune had already handed over the decision-making power to him and Byodoin Phoenix yesterday.

"Why not, let me go. I haven't felt the atmosphere of the World Championship for a long time."

Just when Yuuki Maya was still organizing the lineup in her mind, Kijujiro took the initiative to speak and recommend himself.

"Senior Ghost, do you want to play? It's not impossible."

While Yuuki Maya's eyes revealed a hint of surprise, she also thought that the appearance of Onijūjiro was a good choice.

For Onijūjiro, who sacrificed his own opportunities to fight overseas in order to cultivate talents, it seems like it would be a good idea for him to warm up and get a feel for the game by having an exhibition match.

"Since the high school student candidate is a ghost, we are still short of a junior high school student. You can make the decision on this one."

Byodoin also readily agreed to Onijujiro's initiative, and he recognized the other party's strength.

"For junior high school students..."

Maya Yuuki looked at the junior high school students sitting in the row on the other side of him. There were already several of them looking at him expectantly, including Genichirō Sanada and others.

However, Yuuki Maya's gaze went straight past these people and looked at a figure in the farthest distance.

The figure sat alone at the farthest point, unusually unsociable.

"Akutsu, I plan to let you fight, you won't refuse, right?" Yuuki Maya said a person's name to everyone's surprise.

His action also made the person who was named turn his head immediately, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"What, you don't want to?" Yuuki Maya chuckled.

"Tsk, don't order me around in such a condescending tone!"

Akutsu Jin choked back, but his actions were very decisive.

He stood up, threw off his coat, picked up the racket and walked into the court without looking back.

"I didn't expect you to choose him, but I'm looking forward to this combination." Byodoin's eyes were mysterious and his expression was meaningful.

"It's an interesting combination indeed. One of them hasn't played overseas for a long time, and the other has also had a long period of absence from tennis."

Maya Yuuki is also looking forward to seeing what kind of sparks the combination of the hell gatekeeper and the strange boy will create.

The reason why he chose Akutsu was naturally that he wanted to use this game to stimulate the opponent's huge potential hidden in his body in advance.

Almost at the same time when Yuki finalized the candidates, the German team also completed its personnel selection.

And when the two players sent by the German team came on the field, the whole venue suddenly erupted in uproar.

"Is it true that the German team would actually send them?"

"No way. It's just a fight against an unknown country. Do we need to take it so seriously?"

"The Japanese team is a bit miserable..."

It was no wonder that almost everyone present burst into heated discussions, because at the moment, the players sent by the German team for the first game were the first doubles combination in the World Cup, Berti B. Polk and Tankumaru Schneider, who were recognized by almost all media before the start of this World Cup.

Both of them are active professional players. Berti's brother is the current world's number one professional player, Borg, the captain of the same team.

It was a small exhibition match that saw two professions competing. This immediately made the audience, who originally had little expectations for this match, excited and felt that their ticket prices were well worth it.

Under everyone's gaze, the four players from both sides walked to the front of the net, facing each other in pairs.

There was no verbal communication between the two sides. They just looked at each other for a moment and then heard the referee's shout.

"The first match begins - Japanese demon Jujiro & Jin Akutsu vs. Berti B. Polk & Tankumaru Schneider."

"First set, the German team serves!"

As soon as the words fell, the four contestants turned around and retreated tacitly, taking their respective positions.

At this moment, Berti, standing at the baseline, held the tennis ball in his hand, but was not in a hurry to serve it out quickly.

He looked calmly at the opposite side, at the tall Kijujiro who could give people a huge sense of oppression just by standing there.

"Is the opponent Oni Jujiro? This is a good opportunity to verify the integrity of my data."

After Berti made up his mind, he looked away.

The focus of this doubles match is how to limit the performance of Kijujiro.

As for the junior high school student on the other side, his intelligence has shown that the other party has only been exposed to tennis for a short time and there is a period of inactivity in between, so there is no need to worry at all.

Raising his arm and throwing the tennis ball high, Berti sent the ball out steadily.

砰

As the sound of the ball hitting the ground rang out, the tennis ball fell straight down at Onijūjiro's feet.

Although as a professional doubles player, his personal ability may not be as strong as that of a professional singles player, but Berti's serve is still at a professional level after all, and his ball speed is far beyond the average level of players in major competitions.

On the other hand, Kijujiro looked at the extremely fast speed of the ball without any expression on his face.

He swung the racket and the tennis ball was immediately hit back.

When the ball fell back into the German team's half, Berti's figure had already appeared nearby.

"The combat data of all the members of the Japanese team is in my mind. I know your weaknesses very well."

Berti, who had already arrived behind the tennis ball, looked in the direction of Kijujiro with a cold look in his eyes and thought: "And in this game, one of Kijujiro's weaknesses is his partner."

While turning his sights to Akutsu in the front court, Berti lowered the angle of the racket.

砰

After the tennis ball was hit, it passed through the net and suddenly changed its angle, flying towards Akutsu's defensive loophole at a large angle.

Akutsu was totally caught off guard by the path of Berti's ball. His eyes widened, and his body did not react, allowing the tennis ball to fall and fly out of bounds.

"Sure enough, my data is accurate."

After scoring a point so easily, Berti couldn't help but smile.

But suddenly, a shadow blocked his view, and Berti subconsciously looked up.

Right in front of him at the net, he saw Akutsu standing opposite him at some point, looking at him with murderous eyes and saying coldly: "Boy, do you want to die?"
