Chapter 192: One update + two updates + 24,000 nutrient solution extra update! Players...
Alexander Amadeus was under increasing pressure.
While watching the battle between Yagi Kei and Zeus Iliopoulos,
I have already made a rough guess about Yagi Kei's strength.
I also vaguely responded to his moves and skills in my heart.
But now - separated by a network,
Yagi Kei used a new move that was completely beyond his knowledge.
This serve, this kind of serve, has never been seen from any player before.
Gather, gather, interweave,
Shadows appeared in my eyes, yet they seemed real.
True or false?
A ball went straight to the face of the goal. Alexander Amadeus lived up to his professional qualities and had strong abilities.
Respond to all changes with constancy,
Gripping the racket and hitting the ball, Alexander Amadeus paused at the moment the racket made contact with the ball.
The body is extremely tense, and the arms are almost stiff.
Countless frictions intertwined and rotated, appearing on his racket in a strange fusion state.
Every second of pause has dozens or even hundreds of changes.
Alexander Amadeus was completely countering the opponent's moves.
On the side of the court, Henry Nobel III, who saw Alexander Amadeus catch the ball, had a strange look on his face.
So far, he had never seen Alexander Amadeus' serve be so stretched, even to the point of being long.
This ball, judging only from the momentum of the serve, was more magnificent than one could imagine.
Even if Henry Nobel III had other ideas in his heart, objectively speaking, this goal was indeed worthy of the description of "grand".
The power and pressure emanating from the sphere's arrival alone were enough to overwhelm anyone who faced it, and the same was true for the others. Therefore, Alexander Amadeus's current state was not incomprehensible.
But Alexander Amadeus is a professional athlete!
The first serve that made the world No. 2 Swiss player fall into the mud at the beginning of the match,
This guy from the Japanese team across the net... is he really just a middle school student?!
No one knew what Henry Nobel III was thinking, and he kept it to himself.
Now, everyone's attention is focused on the field.
Focus on Alexander Amadeus who can counter every move!
Dozens, hundreds of them, all need to be fought back one by one——
The shadows that were broken one by one, although they looked like shadows, were actually real attacking serves!
This undoubtedly consumed a lot of Alexander Amadeus's mental energy.
It was so difficult from the beginning, and Alexander Amadeus felt something was wrong.
He seemed to have hit the gun point right on the head.
Has the strength that [Kei Yagi] showed in today's match against the Greek team... reached the level it is now?
Alexander Amadeus thought of a possibility,
Not only him,
The U-17 Japanese team members who had spent more time with Jibaimao also had the same idea.
The true strength of Yagi Kei/Head Coach Yagi/Yagi-kun/Yagi-sama/Yagi-san has always been a mystery to everyone.
Everyone has witnessed the power he displayed in battle.
But no one has ever witnessed his true limits.
Including now... Just from the very beginning, the serve he showed had already broken through, overturned, and overturned everyone's perception of Yagi Kei that they had built up in the previous match.
——'Changes with each passing day',
Yukimura Seiichi, wearing the U-17 team uniform, folded his arms and looked at the younger players on the field.
I've felt this way since the national competition.
Until now, seeing, watching him go out into the world, ahead of them all,
All that was left for them was a figure that tried hard to catch up but was difficult to reach.
"...Kyu, you never stay in one place for too long."
Smiling slightly, Yukimura said with emotion,
Everyone present is an elite, there is no need to point it out, one word hits the mark.
Yagi Kei never stops.
He's getting stronger all the time.
Alexander Amadeus only remembered that Japan rarely sent Yagi Kei to face Germany and Greece, so he could not fully understand this.
And now - it was the moment when he suffered this loss!
One ball contains hundreds or even thousands of ways to attack.
What’s even more terrifying is that each of them is real—
What kind of strength and level of skill does one have to achieve to such an extent in just one serve?!
Break it once, break it twice, break it three times—Amadeus’s mental power continued to soar and reach the highest point.
Visibly, the rotation of the ball in contact with the racket is being reduced.
This is also the proof of Amadeus's success in the fight.
Henry Nobel III and Peter Lambiel held their breath as the rotation gradually slowed down and finally saw the dawn of victory.
Great, this first ball——Amadeus is going to win——
“Crack, crack, crack, crack, crack!!”
A sudden sharp friction sound intensified without warning after reaching a critical point.
After one hundred cracks, the one hundred and first attack suddenly appeared.
Hidden behind all previous attacks, he rushed out immediately after Amadeus had dismantled all previous obstacles.
The blow caught not only Amadeus but everyone else off guard.
“——Boom, boom!”
The ball was ejected and flew out in a strange arc. The high-speed rotating extreme curve ball just hit the baseline and rolled away with a "gurgling" sound.
There was silence.
Tanejima Shuji suddenly remembered the temporary referee title he had been given, and blew the whistle in a panic.
“Beep!”
“——15:0!”
"Ohhh!! Even against a professional player, he's not at all inferior. He scored a goal, Yagi-Yagi!"
"That's right, that's right——this is our Kei's strength, hahahaha——"
Toyama Kintaro and Kirihara Akaya were more excited than each other, with their hands on their hips and laughing proudly.
For a moment, the audience couldn't tell whether it was Yagi Kei who scored or they who scored.
“——”
Kei Yagi scores.
Alexander Amadeus failed to win the first serve of his opponent in the first match.
The opponent scored a point first.
This has never happened before in the Swiss team.
Alexander Amadeus, the world's No. 2 professional athlete,
He was suppressed right at the start!
Scoring a goal, the player tested the fourth skill, 'Above Heaven and Earth, Comprehensive Universe, Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omnipotent. You have it, I have it, you can do it, I can do it, we can do it all.' In combination with ['Deprivation & Devouring'], UR-Zeus Iliopoulos's [Olympia, Omniscient and Omnipotent God],
Finally, this last developed move fills the gap and is pushed to the same dimension as other skills!
The player took advantage of the victory and took out the tennis ball from his pocket to serve again——
Alexander Amadeus looked at the goal scored at the baseline behind him, then turned back to look at the black-haired boy on the other side of the net.
——Without any hesitation or pause, he started serving again!
[Click 'Your butterfly flash hits the wall 365 degrees Thomas without a spin, 100% catch the knife with bare hands, the scheming frog touches your belly'——Using! ]
[Ding!]
【Congratulations! Success! 】
He wanted to lower his center of gravity and prepare to face the multifaceted ball that contained hundreds of variations of serves.
However, the next moment, what appeared before Alexander Amadeus' eyes was a shadowless ball that fell in a spiral trajectory and disappeared as soon as it touched the ball!
Henry Nobel III slowly opened his eyes, "This ball..."
"I used it when I fought against Zeus of Greece. I think the name was something..."
Peter Lambiel paused.
"——It's 'You Butterfly Flash, Hit the Wall, 365 Degrees, Thomas, No Turnaround, 100% Catch the Blade with Your Bare Hands, The Scheming Frog Touches Your Belly' ball!!"
Without any delay, the U-17 Japanese team's Jibaimao support group immediately followed up with the words,
“…Ah, that’s it.”
I can't understand why these guys who were so calm just now suddenly became crazy.
Henry Nobel III and Peter Lambiel looked at each other and chose respect.
Alexander Amadeus, who was on the field and faced the ball, quickly realized that this was a goal that had appeared in both the Japanese team's match against the Greek team and the Japanese team's match against the German team.
The way Jurgen Barisavich Volk and Zeus Iliopoulos responded quickly flashed through his mind.
Alexander Amadeus took a deep breath, holding the racket,
But at this moment, he was still not alert enough to use both hands with all his strength. Against a non-professional opponent, especially a middle school student,
Even though I was quite wary of him because of his battles with Volk and Zeus, it was not to that extent.
——This was also the most wrong choice made by Alexander Amadeus.
The spiral falls, the disappearing ball cums out,
An incomparable sharp roar rushed towards me, like the buzzing of millions of bees, or the fluttering of millions of butterflies.
A huge turbocharged storm descended from the sky and covered the entire stadium area.
The Swiss players, who were completely unprepared for the storm, were unfortunately caught in it. Several of them just grabbed each other and tried to use their own weight to resist the storm.
The Swiss team, known for their strength and outstanding physique, Albert Federer and Randy Pugu, are now the anchors of the entire Swiss team.
The two people were rooted to the ground.
But even so, it was no match for the materialized storm that descended from the sky—
"—Hurry up and help! Those four over there are about to be blown away!"
"let me--"
“——Watch me!!”
When they were at their wit's end, the U-17 players came to their aid, one by one, one by one, forming a long dragon, like a kite string in the middle of a storm, struggling to keep from being taken away.
The key to solving this dilemma lies in how Amadeus responds to this ball!
The sphere suddenly disappeared at the moment of the shot, unlike Zeus Iliopoulos who had a special state [Olympia Omniscient God], which could increase the situation insight to 200%.
But Alexander Amadeus, true to his professionalism, changed his mind instantly, even at a moment that was invisible to the naked eye.
Close your eyes and feel the storm—and its moving center!
In the center of the extremely chaotic and noisy storm, there is the extremely quiet and silent eye of the storm!
Close your eyes for one second, two seconds, three seconds—and you’ve found it!
Amadeus held the racket and moved quickly. His slender figure, long arms and legs supported him to reach the end of the action earlier than ordinary people.
The long arm suddenly swung towards the empty space where there was nothing.
The moment the racket faced upward, it suddenly shook, and the invisible space kept trembling, as if something was hit and was immediately knocked out!
The racket tightly grasped the emerging ball.
Witnessing this scene, everyone was shocked.
Amadeus actually used his own strength to directly pull out "Your butterfly flash hit the wall 365 degrees without turning around, the scheming frog touches your belly" from the hidden space.
"But... even if we find it, this storm doesn't seem to be letting up at all."
When Henry Nobel III said this, everyone, who was briefly shocked, suddenly discovered their blind spot.
The storm not only did not weaken, but even intensified. It looked like they were almost unable to hold back the Swiss players whose feet had already left the ground!
"Hurry up--Amadeus!!"
Alexander Amadeus is under no less pressure than his teammates at this moment.
It seems simple to catch this hidden serve, but it is actually extremely difficult to return it.
The high-speed friction and rotational force of the ball impacted the entire racket, but the reaction force did not affect the ball itself at all, and continued to intensify upwards.
A faint pain came from Amadeus' wrist, and the nerves under his connected forearm were throbbing and twitching.
He slowly frowned, feeling a bad mood in his heart.
When the racket is swung back to strike again, it is just like the racket has just bitten the sphere that has disappeared into space and pulled it out.
Now, Amadeus only felt that the racket in his hand was also bitten by the ball and he couldn't swing it at all!
Resist, suppress, push,
The consciousness transmitted from the racket was clear, distinct and vivid.
Alexander Amadeus tightened his grip on the racket again, raised his eyes, and focused his gaze on the dark-haired figure on the other side of the net.
And then - he changed his previous ordinary returning posture, twisted his body and held the racket in an unusual way, holding the racket handle in a confrontational posture and hit it directly!
“Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak—nothing!”
Using force to resist the rotation, constantly wearing away, constantly disintegrating,
The Swiss team and the U-17 team stretched out in a long line, just like the fallen leaves on the edge of a storm, unable to escape at this moment.
"——No matter which of you two scores, hurry up!!"
"——Please finish this quickly! I'm afraid of heights!!"
"It's so unglamorous—making me fly in the sky so ungracefully to speed up the process!"
It seems like I finally heard the call from outside the stadium,
The black-haired boy, who had been calm and expressionless all this time, finally raised his eyelids a little bit, under the gazes of everyone who was either expectant, or watching, or puzzled, or terrified,
With a stretch of his arm and a swing of his racket, without any delay, he directly sent the ball that Alexander Amadeus had been holding off for a long time back with a "bang"!
“——!!”
Before the impact of the previous goal was fully absorbed, the next goal arrived.
Alexander Amadeus suddenly had the illusion that he was being chased by hyenas.
But now, the teammates hanging in the sky are still waiting to be rescued.
He - had to be serious.
Amadeus did not hesitate any longer and stepped forward.
Immediately, a sudden change occurred, and everyone witnessed the thin shadow that gathered on Amadeus's racket.
Gradually, the light turned to dark, and the black shadow became deeper and deeper, so that it was difficult for anyone who witnessed it to ignore it.
“Th-That’s…”
"Why does it feel a bit like..."
Hesitating, evading, and hesitating to speak.
"No, it's different!"
Hanging high in the sky, Atobe Keigo did not forget to maintain his splendor even at this moment, gracefully stretching his fingertips to his brow, his eyes fixed on the court below.
The black shadows gathered on the Amadeus racket looked very similar at first glance - but in fact, they were formed by the condensation of black mist.
It was a black fluid that was not within their comprehension range at all!
"——That's the commander's ability, [Darkness]."
Albert Federer, who was on the verge of collapse, finally spoke. Now that things had come to this, there was no need to hide anything.
"I think—this is exactly why the Lord will fight your junior high school student in the future!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Alexander Amadeus at the game scene, and the black-haired figure standing on the other side of the net - Yagi Kei.
[Darkness] and [Black]...
Not only the U-17 players were slightly stunned when they saw the change in Amadeus's racket;
Jibaimao was also really interested.
[Ding!]
UR-Alexandre Amadeus (Switzerland) used [Dark]!
The player clicked on the details and scanned them carefully.
[[Dark]: Alexander Amadeus's unique skill, which magnifies the opponent's weaknesses and launches a devastating attack on them, ignoring all defenses (guaranteed to hit).
Additional skills:——[Whale].
The players were intrigued. This was the first time they saw a skill with a special status of "must hit" in the NPC's status bar.
An attack that is bound to hit - let the players see what it looks like!
The [dark] fog covering the entire racket is so heavy that it seems to be extremely oppressive and heavy just from the appearance.
Alexander Amadeus gripped his racket, turned around, and suddenly swung at the serve that was returned by Yagi Kei.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—sizzle!"
The sudden leaping sound of hot oil jumping into cold water erupted from the racket strings.
'weakness,'
Amadeus watched the ball, his black eyes fixed on finding an opportunity to strike back.
“Kong Kong Kong—Bang Bang!!”
Surprisingly - there is no weakness!
The trajectory of the flying sphere changed again, becoming unpredictable and appearing in a completely unexpected range!
Shuji Tanejima managed to maintain his balance by holding onto the net pole. The storm that swept across the entire court came to an abrupt end the moment the ball landed!
Everyone was rescued except Amadeus, who lost another point.
After landing on his feet, Shuji Tanejima took out his whistle and blew it hard.
“Beep!”
“——30:0!”
Two consecutive serve scores,
The Swiss team members' eyes when they looked at the black-haired boy on the other side of the net had completely changed. They were no longer looking at ordinary people.
Alexander Amadeus, who was facing him head-on, breathed a sigh of relief.
Without any breathing space, the black-haired figure on the other side of the net launched another attack.
[Click · Using 'Thomas's 365-degree spin, 100% bare-handed catching of blades, the scheming frog, and then touching your belly, the invincible universe explosion attack'...]
[Ding!]
【Congratulations! Success! 】
The overwhelming heavy pressure, the almost muddy gravity,
The people who had just landed on the ground and were about to get up were pressed down and unable to move the next second.
"...Although Yagi-kun/Yagi-san/Yagi-sama/Head Coach Yagi is becoming increasingly stronger, it's a good thing that a single goal can influence the situation both on and off the field."
"But——can you please let them go? ! ! "
All the innocent people who were implicated cried out in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it out loud.
After receiving two completely different serves from Yagi Kei, Amadeus, who had been mentally prepared, suddenly realized that he was not prepared enough when he witnessed this extraordinary heavy artillery pressure black hole ball!
Pinned to the ground, unable to struggle, Henry Nobel III of the Swiss team gritted his teeth and said, "That guy... how many tricks does he have left to pull out?!"
Good question. The U-17 team thought about it carefully and counted. There are four major items in serving alone.
And the [Abyss of the Ashura God] realm that has not been fully demonstrated in the world arena so far,
And other miscellaneous items not categorized in the Jibai Cat Skills Encyclopedia...
A rough estimate shows that if I were to fight Alexander Amadeus using different moves from beginning to end, I could definitely last the entire six sets!
The moment they realized this, everyone was shocked.
The Swiss team, who didn't know the details, looked at the silence of the U-17 players and were confused for a moment.
Alexander Amadeus, who was on the same court with Yagi Kei, was under even greater pressure.
['Thomas's 365-degree spin, 100% bare-handed catching of the blade, the scheming frog touches your belly again, the invincible universe explosion attack' ball——!]
“Beep!”
“40:0!”
You think I know you don't, but I know you don't. The scheming frog touches your belly again. Super confusing Kaleidoscope ball!
“Beep!”
“1:0!!”
Shuji Tanejima blew the whistle, announcing that Kei Yagi officially won the first set!
Because I was surprised so many times, my emotions have become numb.
Alexander Amadeus waited for a long time, looking at the trajectory and landing point of the last ball.
"——Serve right changed!"
Amadeus serves!
After getting the serve, Amadeus did not attack the ball directly like Yagi Kei did.
Holding the racket in one hand and the ball in the other, he once again looked at Yagi Kei on the other side of the net.
Different forms of serving that have never been seen before, even each shot has its own emphasis,
Each attack was extremely difficult to deal with immediately.
Such a junior high school student...
Stop thinking and shift your attention back to the game.
Now it's Alexander Amadeus' turn to serve.
Hold the racket tightly, no more hesitation,
[UR-Alexander Amadeus used [Darkness]!]
A thick black mist suddenly accumulated above the racket and the ball. The mist gradually condensed and accumulated into a thick liquid.
It was different from the previous counterattack—this time, it was heavier and more powerful.
“…Here it comes.”
With a chorus of shouts, everyone realized that Alexander Amadeus was serious.
The racket swung and hit the ball——!
The black ball disappeared into the shadows, and there was no trace of the ball on the court!
——It was another 'disappearing serve'!
But unlike Yagi Kei's 'disappearing serve', what was moving quickly was a dark shadow that matched the thick black mist wrapped around Alexander Amadeus's racket!
"...The ball has disappeared into the shadows. How can I strike back?"
"I can't find the landing point of the sphere at all..."
"Attack the ground...?"
The crowd around them were talking in a flurry, whispering about how to return the ball.
The members of the U-17 Swiss team remained silent, watching the situation on the field.
As teammates of Alexander Amadeus, they are most aware of the difficulty of Alexander Amadeus's [Dark] skills!
This is what makes him a professional player.
Able to magnify the opponent's weaknesses and hit them with one strike——
It's simply a flawless execution technique!
"——Let's see, what exactly is the weakness of this Japanese player——"
Henry Nobel III had not even finished his words.
His pupils reflected the action of the black-haired boy on the other side of the net taking a step forward and swinging his racket directly at the shadow underground!
It would have been fine if he had just hit it from the air - what was surprising was that with this strike, he had managed to send the small ball that had escaped into the shadows and was beyond the reach of anyone, flying back!
——It has absolutely no effect on directly attacking weaknesses or determining weaknesses.
It was just like an ordinary ball, which did not cause any obstruction at all, and was hit back with the flow of the tide!
Amidst the astonishment, only the players remained calm as always.
Isn't this just an ordinary ball?
In the eyes of players - there is no need for so much fancy stuff!
Skill CG one-click jump, and the player will hit the A gate!
[An]'s serve was hit back without any resistance, which even Alexander Amadeus did not expect.
Amadeus reacted quickly, and there was no time for him to stand there and doubt or anything.
You have to think while you're taking action.
The brain's thoughts jump quickly, and the mental power is highly concentrated.
Alexander Amadeus quickly found the target, swung his racket, and turned to return the ball, his mind still replaying the scene of his crisp return.
'Weakness'...hasn't it shown?
“Kachakaka…hisshisshisshiss—”
As soon as he touched the racket, Alexander Amadeus lowered his head.
Something is wrong, the return of this ball is completely beyond imagination!
Rotation, force, friction, all values are multiplied,
Even the black fog wrapped around the sphere... became thicker!
It is so rich that it almost drips water, more substantial and flows like liquid.
Amadeus narrowed his eyes.
Is this... the effect of [Darkness] being enhanced?
But it turned around and attacked him,
how so……
The [Darkness] sphere that he had created had its value multiplied and then turned its attack direction towards him, the creator of the [Darkness] sphere...
Alexander Amadeus suddenly realized something and his expression turned very ugly.
He tightened his arms, gripped the racket, and no longer relaxed his vigilance, treating the black-haired figure across the net as an opponent of the same level.
Alexander Amadeus put away all his contempt and arrogance,
He finally understood why Kei Yagi, who was only a junior high school student, was able to defeat Jurgen Barisavich Volk, a professional player of the German team, and Zeus Iliopoulos, the core soul of the Greek team!
Such strength in him is a complete blow to everyone who has ever played tennis!
The [Darkness] that was doubled up continuously attacked his weak points.
'Must-Hit' Debuff Lock,
Alexander Amadeus had almost no way to retreat. He had to return this ball, and he had to return this ball!
Holding the racket in both hands, Amadeus realized - he should have done this from the beginning!
Amadeus's change to a double-handed racket immediately impacted the emotions of the U-17 Swiss team players on the sidelines.
"...General,"
"Amadeus..."
"This player from the Japanese team actually puts so much pressure on him..."
"But, this is still the captain's serving game..."
No one can say for sure whether Amadeus will score on his serve, just as no one can be sure of the level of Yagi Kei's strength.
Holding the racket with both hands does not reduce the pressure, but it means that you have to be serious, dedicated, and give your all.
Amadeus volleyed the ball, and the racket and the ball pulled against each other, making an almost terrifying sound.
Whizzing past, the black shadow rushed straight towards Yagi Kei!
Amadeus withstood the doubled value and the attack of [Darkness] on his weak point.
Now, he wants to return this blow to Yagi Kei!
The dark shadow grew heavier, its body expanded, like an unknown black creature dormant underground.
Huge, still, silent,
Just wait for the moment of breaking out of the ground - to devour the target completely!
Unable to restrain themselves, the U-17 players who were watching the game shook hands.
Even the usually calm Byodoin Phoenix frowned slightly.
The pressure of this return shot was so heavy that even those standing far away from the court could feel it.
As expected, he is the world's No. 2 professional player Alexander Amadeus.
The Phoenix of Byodoin could clearly sense that Alexander Amadeus was stronger than when they fought two years ago.
He was stronger than before, and now he was standing in front of Yagi Kei—
——Of course, there is no comparison at all.
The player looked up,
UR BOSS enters battle mode, and all the attacks returned are presented in numerical values.
All skill animation CGs can be skipped.
Players never waste time watching those fancy aspects,
One ball, it is only one ball that reaches the player.
All you really have to do is take a step forward, raise your arm, swing your racket, and boom—
"Crack, crack, crack, crack—bang, bang, bang!"
“——Bang!!”
Deafening roars, friction sounds, sharp whistles,
And the sound of collision and flying,
Dust filled the air again, mist rose, bricks and tiles were scattered everywhere,
The people who had been waiting there for a long time had gradually become accustomed to the destruction of the venue by Jibaimao.
When the dust clears, take a closer look.
The half that belongs to Jibaimao is still so simple and calm.
Looking across at Amadeus's half,
Most of it collapsed, all was destroyed,
“…”
“…Oh, how miserable, how miserable.”
"How could a good professional player be so depressed..."
"Yeah, yeah, suddenly he came out and said he wanted to challenge Coach Yagi or something..."
The U-17 Japanese team members were whispering, and the sound was heard by the U-17 Swiss team members.
Should have argued,
But it was too late to argue now.
Whether it is Henry Nobel III, Peter Lambiel, Albert Federer or Randy Pug,
They had no extra attention or energy to spare for the members of the U-17 Japanese team. They were staring intently at the half that belonged to Alexander Amadeus.
A huge pit, from the court to the guardrail wall,
Spider-web-like cracks spread out all over the place, everything collapsed and completely disintegrated.
And in the center of the exploding spider web—
It was a black figure with slender arms and legs.
Don't doubt it.
It was Alexander Amadeus,
“——”
Amadeus, trying to turn the tide of battle with only his racket, was suddenly raised to four, six, and eight times his power.
No, this blow was beyond the range of cognition and was directly launched dozens of meters away!
That's all, that's all.
But it was this blow that made him realize a crucial point.
The person standing opposite his opponent on the other side of the net,
Kei Yagi,
'weakness',
From nothing.
This guy... has absolutely no weaknesses.
