"We're all on the same team, we see each other all the time. After watching you practice for a long time, I've naturally learned some of your habits."
Shechuan smiled slightly.
But these words jolted Mizuki and Sengoku awake. Mizuki, in particular, had assumed that Shibukawa was unprepared for the match.
In retrospect, he was too naive.
"and......"
Mizuki keenly noticed that Shibukawa hadn't explained that particular spin. And based on Mizuki's experience, it wasn't uncommon for high-speed serves to increase spin.
"For most people, you can't even be distracted when playing high-speed shots, otherwise you're likely to make a first-serve error."
Mizuki pondered to herself, "Once the first serve goes wrong, the pressure on the second serve will immediately follow. Therefore, few people add unnecessary spin when playing high-speed shots, but..."
As the thought crossed his mind, he glanced at Shibukawa, who was shifting his serve position on the other side, and thought to himself, "If a person's serve is fast enough, there will be ample time to apply spin variations."
"in other words."
"This isn't his actual serve speed, but rather within a range that's relatively comfortable for him. Hmph, this guy really kept it a secret!"
With that in mind, Mizuki stepped to the front of the net, taking on the role of vanguard. Sengoku, on the other hand, retreated to the back line, assuming a ready stance.
Bang!
The next moment, Shibukawa hit the tennis ball.
It was still that kind of super fast backswing that was almost impossible to see. But Sengoku was no ordinary person. With his level 3 [Dynamic Vision], once he observed carefully, the surrounding environment would visibly slow down.
Shechuan's serve was no exception.
Sengoku could clearly see the backswing marks and the point of contact with the ball that Mizuki couldn't observe. So, after locking onto the landing point of the tennis ball, he immediately moved forward and swung his racket the instant the ball hit the ground, using a half-volley technique.
"Even if there are changes in spin later, as long as I hit the ball fast enough, I can return it the moment it bounces... uh?!"
however.
When Sengoku confidently swung his racket, the tennis ball didn't bounce directly up after landing; instead, it spun intensely close to the ground.
The tennis ball only bounced after the racket passed by, giving Sengoku a timing advantage.
Swish!
The racket missed its target.
Sengoku nearly lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Having finally regained his balance, he looked up at Shibukawa with a look of surprise and uncertainty.
"Could it be that this guy has already predicted my playing style?"
At this moment.
A sense of absurdity arose in Sengoku's heart.
Even though they were the ones with the better data flow, every move they made was actually calculated by the other team.
Chapter 74 The Chemical Reaction of Explosive Flow and Data Tennis
"Could it be...?"
As if struck by a thought, Sengoku glanced at Mizuki in front of him, then looked at Shibukawa opposite him: "The opponent's data abilities... are even superior to Mizuki's?"
"I can tell."
At this moment, in order to switch positions for receiving serves, Kanzuki, who was walking towards the baseline, said helplessly, "He has also been very familiar with our training over this period of time."
Seeing Mizuki's reaction, Sengoku shook his head with a wry smile.
no way.
The opponent before me cannot be judged by ordinary standards. Despite having such a packed training schedule every day, practicing not only ball sports but also boxing, and performing exceptionally well in both.
As a result, they were able to obtain data on both of them in the process.
Sengoku even wondered if Shibukawa had brought in Mizuki not because Mizuki's abilities were indispensable, but simply because he wanted to reduce his own workload.
Bang!
soon.
The third serve was hit.
Shibukawa's shot was decisive and fast, but because of the lesson learned from the previous shot, Mizuki hesitated to shoot easily. Only after confirming the change in the tennis ball's spin did she swing her racket.
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out as the tennis ball was hit back.
Tap tap!
But Shibukawa on the other side had already crossed the service line and was striding towards the net to attack.
"Serve and volley?"
Sengoku instinctively became alert.
"wrong."
"This is a doubles match, there's no point in him going online."
"On the contrary, I'm positioned further forward than him. If he dares to hit a shot near the net, I can definitely return it, so..."
Sengoku's brain was working at lightning speed.
Meanwhile, Guan Yue, who was at the bottom line, also began to analyze the purpose of the Sichuan-related actions.
"As expected, he will likely attack from both sides. And the landing point will definitely be quite far back, otherwise it will just be giving Sengoku a point."
Thinking back to that change ball technique, Guan Yue dared not make any rash moves, fearing that her cleverness might backfire.
Swish!
at the same time.
Without hesitation, Shibukawa swung his racket as he advanced, and a crisp sound of hitting the ball rang out as the racket left a trail of afterimages.
"It's not a net shot!"
Sengoku's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not take any action. Instead, he stared intently at Shibukawa, watching for his next move.
"It's not a baseline ball!"
On the other side, after realizing that the opponent was not attacking from both sides, Guan Yue lowered her guard and also chose to remain still.
"Sengoku is so patient! He didn't even try to make the first move at this distance. As expected, he is the strongest player in the Yamabuki clan!"
When he saw that Sengoku had not underestimated his opponent and acted rashly, Mizuki couldn't help but nod, secretly praising the other's composure.
But he soon realized something was wrong.
The tennis ball had already crossed Sengoku's defense, but the opponent remained standing still, showing no sign of making a move.
Damn it!
"We've been tricked!"
Seeing where the tennis ball landed, Mizuki's expression changed drastically at the baseline. But it was too late for him to make a move; he could only watch helplessly as the ball bounced away.
"40-0."
On the left side of the field, Shechuan smiled and announced the score.
"what?"
Belatedly realizing what was happening, Sengoku suddenly turned his head and immediately understood when he saw Kanzuki's grim expression at the bottom line.
"So we... we've been tricked?"
"Ah."
Guan Yue's expression was quite unpleasant.
They weren't newcomers; after being outmaneuvered by Shibukawa, they realized the problem. The match appeared to be two against one, but their pitifully low level of teamwork meant that 1+1>2 was impossible, not even equal to 2.
On the contrary, in Shechuan's eyes, this cooperation was full of flaws.
"Miscalculation."
Guan Yue sighed, her face looking dejected.
In the past, even when he was driven to the brink, he would at least consider his pride. But facing Shibukawa and Sengoku, who had defeated him before, Mizuki knew very well that his so-called pride was utterly worthless in front of these two.
"Take your time, it's okay."
At this moment, Sengoku turned his head and smiled at Mizuki. The latter nodded and said, "The most important thing right now is to increase our teamwork. Also, we should try our best to test the opponent's strength."
"Ah."
Guan Yue nodded in agreement.
This isn't child's play; they were already at a disadvantage, playing two against one. If they didn't finish the match because of poor teamwork, the two of them would probably want to crawl into a hole and hide.
They can't afford to lose face like that.
With this in mind, the two quickly began looking for solutions. After switching positions, they tried their best to consider each other's needs when receiving serves.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Before they knew it, several shots had been taken for the fourth ball. Sengoku and Mizuki were both very careful, afraid that something might go wrong.
"As a regular member of Yamabuki, it's not good to be so timid. Since you're unwilling to attack, let me create an opportunity for you."
Seeing that the two had a numerical advantage but had not launched an attack, Shibukawa smiled and decisively flicked the tennis ball into the air.
"This ball?"
The two people opposite each other's eyes narrowed simultaneously.
It must be said that Shibukawa's lob had a beautiful arc. The tennis ball looked like it was going to fly out of bounds, but after reaching its highest point, it sliced in at a slight angle. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it landed inside the baseline.
"Has this guy's skill level gotten this good?"
Qian Shi was shocked.
Looking back, his current opponent was someone even his incomplete version of the Tiger Cannon required his full effort to retaliate against. In terms of skill, Shibukawa's is merely so-so.
Now, he can easily perform such difficult high lobs.
"Unfortunately, this is a doubles match."
After a brief sigh, Sengoku smiled. While Shibukawa's lob had suppressed him at the net, it posed little threat to Mizuki at the baseline.
On the contrary, this height of the ball is perfect for a smash.
The problem is...
Guan Yue quickly analyzed in her mind, "We all know this ball is suitable for a baseline smash, he couldn't possibly not know that. If that's the case, why did he still hit it?"
Because of the hardships she had suffered before, Mizuki now has to think things through carefully before taking any action regarding Shibukawa.
"and many more."
Suddenly, as if struck by a thought, a glint of light flashed in his eyes: "Could this guy have calculated that I wouldn't dare to make a rash move, thus missing the best opportunity to smash the ball?!"
Once the idea came to mind, the more Guan Yue thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.
"Since that's the case!"
He took a deep breath, then leaped up and, once in the optimal position for a smash, smashed the tennis ball without hesitation.
boom!
Although Mizuki's strength is not as great as Sengoku's, and his jumping height is not as high as that of the Tiger Cannon serve, serving and smashing are completely different things. The former has a limited area, while the latter only requires the ball to not go out of bounds.
Of course, although the lineup in front of them is the duo of Sengoku and Mizuki, the two subconsciously assume that it's a singles match, and their returns have remained within that range since the start of the game.
even so.
The speed and trajectory of that smash were simply beyond Shibukawa's ability to block. After all, while his physical strength was not low, it still couldn't compare to Akutsu's natural muscle elasticity and reaction speed.
"A good smash."
