My Prince of Tennis has a high proficiency level.

"game!"

The referee on the high chair immediately announced loudly, "Sengoku, 1-0, switch positions!"

"Pretty!"

"As expected of a thousand koku!"

"This smash is probably no weaker than Shibukawa's (Minister/Senior) 'Tiger Roar'!"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion.

To this, Shibukawa simply smiled slightly.

For someone like Sengoku, who possesses considerable strength, incredible jumping ability, and the almost supernatural ability of [Dynamic Vision], once he completes his jump and spike, it's virtually impossible to defend against him unless someone like Fuji has a special technique to counter his spike.

In the original work, Sengoku easily replicated his opponent's "dunk smash" simply by relying on his knowledge of Momoshiro.

Moreover, Shibukawa's "Tiger Roar" smash was inspired by Sengoku's "Tiger Cannon" serve.

Those who believe that Sengoku's killing was imitating Shechuan are somewhat going against the grain.

However, this also proves the saying: If you are strong enough, great scholars will come to debate the classics for you.

If Sengoku can't keep up with the future Yamabuki's pace, he'll only become more of a background character for others.

"so."

Thinking of this, Shechuan looked up at the calm-faced orange-haired boy on the court.

"A week has passed, Sengoku. Have you finally found your direction in tennis?"

boom!

next moment.

Akutsu hit the tennis ball with great force.

Tap tap!

Almost simultaneously with hitting the tennis ball, Akutsu started running without hesitation, sprinting towards the net.

"Serve and volley?!"

Everyone immediately perked up.

Nan, Dongfang, and others looked nervously towards the field.

"Is he planning to retaliate in kind?"

"But, there's no way you could possibly go online in front of Sengoku, is there?"

"Ok?"

however.

Just when everyone thought Akutsu would be confined to the baseline, he used his terrifying physical talent to withstand several of Sengoku's deep shots.

tread!

Reaching the net, Akutsu stepped up and swung his racket fiercely at the tennis ball.

With a bang.

As if a cannonball had landed, Sengoku felt the ground beneath his feet tremble violently.

"1, 15-0!"

The referee on the high chair was also startled.

Akutsu's playing style is too aggressive!

In a daze, he seemed to see a ferocious beast rushing towards him from the bottom line.

"Well."

Sengoku gripped his racket somewhat awkwardly.

His opponent's internet access method was clearly a direct copy of his previous pattern. However, Akutsu's physical abilities were superior, allowing him to use his natural talent to withstand Akutsu's counterattack.

Looking up at his opponent and feeling the invisible pressure emanating from him, Sengoku felt a pang of regret.

He seemed to have inadvertently released a terrifying beast from its cage...

Chapter 68 The Gap in Potential

boom!

Bang!

boom!

Bang!

...

Akutsu's serve saw a fierce exchange between the two players.

But it was obvious to anyone with eyes that Sengoku was being severely suppressed.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Outside the stadium, after Dongfang uttered those words, a bead of cold sweat rolled down his forehead.

"Ah."

Nan, standing beside him, said in a deep voice, "This is the first time I've seen Sengoku look so disheveled. Even during his duel with Mizuki, he wasn't forced to this extent."

Tap tap!

on the field.

Akutsu sprinted like a cheetah.

He leaned forward with his back slightly bent, much like a wild beast in a hunting posture.

At this moment, he was already close to the net. Facing the ball that Sengoku had finally managed to catch up with through his own strength, a cold glint flashed in Akutsu's eyes.

boom!

Then, as he leaped forward, he swung his racket violently. The tennis ball slammed into the ground like a cannonball, leaving a wisp of smoke.

"game!"

"Akuzu, 1-1!"

The referee, seated on the high chair, spoke in a loud voice.

The scene quieted down.

"Interesting, very interesting."

Kanzuki, the person in charge of this decision-making process, wore a satisfied smile.

When he initially planned to pair Sengoku and Akutsu together, he was just trying it out, thinking he wouldn't lose out anyway. However, the two of them surprised him greatly.

"Akuzu's physical talent is truly terrifying."

Mizuki narrowed his eyes. He had been present at the fierce duel between Akutsu and Shibukawa a few days ago. But back then, Akutsu seemed more like a wild beast trapped in a cage.

It looks fierce, but it doesn't have that strong sense of oppression.

Now, the beasts have been unleashed. In particular, Akutsu, having learned an offensive style of tennis from Sengoku, has become even more aggressive.

"but."

After a pause, Mizuki turned to look at Sengoku, whose face was grim, and raised an eyebrow slightly: "This guy isn't the type to give up easily. This match... will be a tough one!"

...

call!

soon.

The third game begins.

As expected, Sengoku immediately unleashed his signature move, tossing the tennis ball high into the air.

"Ok?"

Akutsu's expression changed slightly.

The opponent tossed the ball at an exaggerated height. This obvious action clearly indicated that their upcoming serve would not be so simple.

boom!

really.

As Sengoku leaped high and smashed the tennis ball like a smash, Akutsu's pupils subtly contracted.

"So fast!"

Even he was taken aback by the speed of that [Tiger Cannon].

Akutsu wasn't a data-driven player; he neither anticipated this move nor had access to the corresponding data. All he could do was react on the spot.

Tap tap!

Immediately, everyone saw Akutsu quickly move forward. Just as the tennis ball was flying out, he made the most of his position and swung his racket to hit the ball.

Swish!

Sengoku's expression changed drastically when he saw his serve hit by the opponent, still in mid-air.

Snapped!

but.

Due to a lack of experience, Akutsu's serve return failed to clear the net and crashed into the blocking net.

"15-0!"

When the referee spoke, the team members who had a better impression of Sengoku breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had survived a disaster.

However, Sengoku's face was extremely pale.

Yes, Akutsu's return shot went into the net. But the problem is, this was only the first time his opponent had made contact with the [Tiger Cannon].

Back then, Shibukawa only used a damaged version of the Tiger Cannon to return the attack, which made Sengoku realize his extraordinary abilities. Akutsu, facing a Tiger Cannon at full power, not only reacted but also managed to hit the tennis ball.

This undoubtedly set off alarm bells in Sengoku's mind.

Bang!

For the second ball, Sengoku didn't dare to use the Tiger Cannon again.

This made many people frown, but people like Uesugi and Mizuki were not surprised.

The "Tiger Cannon" technique, to put it bluntly, is designed to dominate weaker opponents. It's not even like some slice or smash techniques, because once you jump, it means you lose if you don't score.

In other words, this is a skill level that involves reckless, life-or-death situations.

Even if Sengoku was very confident, he dared not underestimate Akutsu's talent.

then.

The game on the court once again turned into a tug-of-war between the two.

Akutsu possesses superior physical talent, while Sengoku boasts level 3 dynamic vision and far more match experience. In the prolonged back-and-forth battle, Sengoku gained a slight advantage.

With the Tiger Cannon scoring the first point, Sengoku narrowly won the third game.

However, in the fourth game, Akutsu once again used his serve to suppress Sengoku with his aggressive tennis style.

In the blink of an eye, Akutsu won the game, tying the score at 2-2.

The situation is deadlocked.

Both players are the type who get more and more excited as the game progresses. Sengoku's touch gets hotter and hotter as the game goes on, and Akutsu's body is also constantly being activated.

As time went on, in one fast break after another, the score was constantly widening and then tying again.

In the blink of an eye.

Another 20 minutes passed.

boom!
