Demon Slayer: The beginning of an immortal sword
Chapter 144
The two sides had a hard time getting back together.
While the medical staff was urgently treating Bobby's injury, a staff member of the Tennis Association came to Richard and began to ask him whether he would continue the next two games.
You should know that the total score of the Kanto team is now 3-0. Normally, this game has been won, but after all, this is not a formal game, and it is mostly a performance. The audience at the scene does not want the game to end so quickly.
Richard is very entangled now, because he can't be sure whether the situation will get worse if he continues to play. Most importantly, he has lost the gambling agreement with the Akashi Group, which means that he will lose a lot of money and even make himself bankrupt.
But if the next game can satisfy some sponsors, then he still has a chance, and if the game ends like this, Kevin will probably not agree easily. Richard may not care about other people, but he doesn't want to offend Kevin casually.
So after thinking again and again, Richard gritted his teeth and agreed to continue the game. This is his last retreat, otherwise he can only find a way to run away.
At this time, Bobby's screams came again on the field. It turned out that after emergency treatment, Bobby had regained consciousness, but when the medical staff wanted to carry him away on a stretcher, an accident happened.
Bobby's weight and body were far beyond the tolerance of the medical staff. The two of them couldn't support it just after lifting him up, and the stretcher was a bit small for Bobby, which eventually caused Bobby to fall off the stretcher.
In the end, there was no choice. The medical staff called six staff members to carry Bobby away on two stretchers, which made the audience speechless.
This time, the audience did not discuss Bobby's injury too much, because Bobby did not look very serious and did not appear to be covered in blood, so now they are still looking forward to whether there will be the next game.
After the Tennis Association staff communicated with Richard, they notified the organizer of the event, that is, the manager of the Akashi Group, and then the host received the notification and asked him to announce the continuation of the game.
Due to the match between Akutsu and Bobby just now, the court needs to be cleaned briefly. After all, Bobby's half court is full of his bitter water, sweat and some blood, which may cause trouble for the next players.
Taking advantage of this short time, Richard came to the lounge of the Kanto team and found Kintaro Toyama who was about to play. He had just obtained the list of the next two players through the staff of the Tennis Association.
Although Kintaro did not know why the uncle was looking for him, he was simple-minded and did not think much about it. He happily chatted with Richard. Akutsu did not say much after seeing this. Anyway, there were so many people around, and Richard could not abduct Kintaro.
After that, Richard began to tell Kintaro the story of Andrud Iglijev, hoping to win Kintaro's sympathy with his miserable life experience, and finally achieve the goal of making Kintaro lose the game on his own initiative.
After Richard told a lot of stories about Andrud, Kintaro also roughly understood what kind of person his opponent was, and then smiled and assured Richard that he knew how to play the next game.
Richard was very happy after hearing this, and thought in his heart that children are really easy to fool, and then he got up and left on the grounds that it was inconvenient to disturb him because the game was about to start. Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Kintaro's brain circuit was different from that of ordinary people.
After seeing Richard leave, Akutsu asked Kintaro what they were talking about. Kintaro told Akutsu everything without reservation. In the end, Kintaro said excitedly:
"It turns out that my opponent today likes tennis so much, just like me! So I've decided! I will go all out in today's game and let him experience the joy of tennis more!"
After hearing Kintaro's words, Akutsu's eyes twitched, and then he looked in the direction where Richard left, with a mocking smile on his face. This is what is called stealing a chicken but losing the rice, right?
"Kintaro, have you forgotten what Akashi told you about the 60% power limit?" Akutsu suddenly said.
"Oh, right! I almost forgot! Thank you, A-Ren~ Then do your best within this range!" Kintaro was stunned for a moment, and then said happily.
"How many times have I said it! Don't call me A-Ren!" Akutsu shouted with some dissatisfaction.
"Okay, I know! A-Ren!".....
.
Time passed quickly, and the host came on stage again and began to introduce the two players of the next game. This time, he first introduced the player of the US West Coast team - Andrud Iglidjev.
Andrud Iglidjev
With a cold expression, Andrud slowly walked out of the player channel of the US team, just like his nicknames Tennis Machine and Iron Scorpion, no strangers should approach.
Akashi looked at Andrud in the box, but he was thinking about the world game. He remembered that in the original book, there were many players in the West Coast team of the US team. He didn't know whether there was no one in the US team and they were pulled in to make up the number or the author was too lazy to create new characters.
In short, this game can be regarded as an early match with the members of the US U17 team. Although the strength gap is a bit large, Akashi clearly knew in the first three games that they didn't even use half of their strength, and Akatsu was even more so.
At this time, the host has begun to introduce the players of the Kanto team. After the host called out Kintaro Toyama's name, Kintaro with fiery red hair jumped out of the player channel, then jumped directly into the air, turned several somersaults, and finally came to Huacun Aoi.
It is worth mentioning that Kintaro is the only player who did not take off his coat, because he was still wearing the leopard print vest under the Kanto team uniform. I don't know why Kintaro has such a special liking for this dress.
Kintaro's action made Huacun Aoi stunned for a moment. No one expected Kintaro to appear in this way. The audience around him immediately cheered enthusiastically and called Kintaro's name at the same time.
This made Kintaro more excited and happy. He jumped around on the sidelines and greeted the audience with a smile. Seeing Kintaro's innocent and lively appearance, the audience naturally gave a more enthusiastic response.
In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire gymnasium reached a climax, with cheers coming one after another. Ryoma was at the entrance of the player's passage, looking at Kintaro on the field with a hint of envy in his eyes. Unfortunately, he probably won't have a chance to play in this game.
After all, standing next to him was the president of Rikkai University, the son of God, Yukimura Seiichi. Unless the other party gave up the singles match, it would not be Ryoma's turn to play.
At this time, Akutsu, Nioh, Fuji and Sanada all came over, ready to watch Kintaro's game. You know, Akutsu and Sanada were not interested in watching the doubles match.
In fact, Sanada loves and hates Nioh. He recognizes Nioh's strength very much. Even if he doesn't pay attention, he will probably lose to Nioh, but that character who likes to play tricks on people is really speechless.
You know, Sanada suffered a lot under Nioh's phantom ability, and even had a scene of social death. If Yukimura hadn't come to make peace in the end, Sanada would have gone berserk on the spot.
"The second singles match is about to begin. Kintaro Toyama of the Kanto team will play against Andrude Iglijev of the US West Coast team. Please enter the court!"
Kintaro and Andrude entered the court together. Richard on the sidelines was in a much better mood now. Andrude would definitely win this match, and his mechanical precision would definitely interest the sponsors.
Just before the two came to the net, Kintaro smiled and stretched out his hand, intending to greet Andrude, and Andrude also stretched out his hand expressionlessly and shook hands with Kintaro.
"I heard that you like tennis very much, so let's have a happy match today!" Kintaro said happily while shaking hands.
Andrude still had that indifferent expression, and didn't even respond to Kintaro's words. He just looked at Kintaro quietly, waiting for the referee's instructions.
After seeing this, the referee immediately signaled the two to start guessing who would go first. After all, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. The result of the guess was that Andrud won the right to serve. It was not easy. The US West Coast team finally got the right to serve.
"The game ends! The US West Coast team serves first!"
Andrud came to the baseline silently, his eyes became sharp. In his concept, only victory is the most important thing in the game. If you can't win, it has no meaning.
This is somewhat similar to Akashi, but it's a pity that Andrud doesn't have the strength to support his belief. This is the biggest difference between him and Akashi.
Before serving, Andrud locked his eyes on the bottom corner on the left side of Kintaro, then threw the tennis ball and swung it, and the tennis ball flew to the opposite left bottom corner with a good speed.
However, Kintaro appeared at the bottom corner with just a jump, and then his body rotated a circle and faced the bouncing tennis ball.
With a strong slap, the tennis ball turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Andrud on the opposite side with powerful kinetic energy.
Andrud immediately began to analyze Kintaro's movements, and his body quickly ran towards the tennis ball. When he came to the hitting point, he swung the racket and hit it directly, but the weight of the tennis ball made Andrud frown slightly, and then hit the tennis ball back.
After seeing this, Kintaro immediately became happy, walked a few steps to the front of the tennis ball, then jumped up with his body tilted, rotated a few times in the air, and then hit the tennis ball violently.
Andrud on the opposite side already knew that Kintaro's strength should not be underestimated through the ball just now, so he directly met it with both hands holding the racket, but the weight of the tennis ball still exceeded his estimation, but he could still hit it back.
Then the two began a rapid attack. During this process, Andrud constantly analyzed Kintaro's movement trajectory, trying to find out the opponent's playing habits and style.
Kintaro was simply enjoying the fun of playing tennis, and coupled with Richard's words to him before the game, Kintaro's offensive became more and more fierce, and Andrud's pressure began to increase.
In the end, Andrud still failed to completely intercept Kintaro's counterattack, and was hit by Kintaro's whip to the right flaw, losing the first point.
"0-15!"
However, Andrud felt that he had analyzed more than half of Kintaro's movements. As long as there were a few more balls, he would be able to fully control the rhythm of the game.
Andrud still came to the baseline with an expressionless face, looked at the bottom corner on the right side of Kintaro, and then sent the ball directly, and the tennis ball flew quickly towards the opposite right bottom corner.
Kintaro exerted force with his feet, did several backflips in the air, appeared in the bottom corner on the right, and then swung the racket directly, which surprised Andrud on the opposite side, because Kintaro's movements were completely different from the previous ball.
This difference is not about the overall action, but the action mode. For ordinary players, they have their own fixed action mode. By analyzing these action modes, they can roughly predict the opponent's next action. Andrude has been doing this, which is a bit like data tennis.
But unfortunately, Kintaro is such a freak. He has never had any fixed action mode. He is mainly free to do whatever he wants. Even Inui Sadaharu and Yanagi Renji have not been able to establish a data model for Kintaro so far, let alone Andrude.
However, Andrude still reacted immediately, quickly came to the landing point, hit the tennis ball back, and instinctively began to analyze Kintaro's actions again. After that, the situation of the two was the same as the first ball, and a fierce confrontation began.
Kintaro's cheerful laughter has been echoing outside the court. All the audience can feel Kintaro's love for tennis from the bottom of his heart. Many people are even infected by Kintaro and laugh as well.
"0-30!"
Andrude still failed to score this point, but he firmly believed that his analysis was correct this time. The first ball should be a fake move made by Kintaro to test deliberately.
But the next ball completely shattered Andrude's luck. Looking at Kintaro who changed his action mode again, Andrude felt the deep malice from the world. Such a player is simply a natural nemesis for him.
"0-40!"
"GAME! Kintaro Toyama! 1-0!"
As expected, Kintaro quickly won the first game, but there were many rounds of attack in this game, which made Kintaro very satisfied, so in the next serving game, he was ready to use the new skills he had mastered during this period.
After the second game started, Kintaro came to the baseline, excitedly threw the tennis ball high, and then the whole person began to circle in place. The next moment, a blazing flame suddenly appeared on the racket. When the tennis ball fell to the right position, Kintaro swung the racket and hit it hard.
"Look at me! Super million-ton fantasy luxury volcanic eruption ball!" Kintaro shouted.
The tennis ball suddenly turned into a scorching fireball and blasted towards the opposite half of the court. The tennis ball instantly flew over the net and set the net on fire. In an instant, a line of fire seemed to appear between the two of them, and the tennis ball was like a volcanic eruption after landing, with flames everywhere.
Andrud stared at the scene in front of him blankly, not knowing what to do for a while, until a flash of fire flew past his eyes, and then the referee's voice sounded, he came back to his senses.
"ACE! 15-0! The game is suspended, and the net is changed!"
Yes! That's right! Kintaro turned this volcanic eruption ball into his own serving move, because he recently found that many players have their own serving moves, and he also wanted to shout the name of the move when serving, which felt very cool, and finally succeeded
, he kindly wanted to teach Akutsu, because Akutsu didn't have a serve either, but Akutsu refused without hesitation.
Soon the net was replaced. When it was replaced, Akutsu also came to the sidelines and asked Kintaro to serve higher and not hit the net again. Kintaro nodded seriously.
Richard on the other side had begun to doubt his life. Kintaro's tennis had a huge impact on him. He never knew that tennis could be so powerful, or he had never really paid attention to the sport of tennis.
The same was true for Andrud. Although he had received training at Richard's tennis base, this was the first time he had seen such tennis. He couldn't understand many of the moves of Japanese players before.
So vision is sometimes very important. Andrud was bound by Richard to a lower level. He only knew how to train mechanically and never thought about whether he could develop any moves. Only Billy and Kevin had their own unique skills in the entire team.
At this time, Kintaro had already started to spin again, and the tennis ball turned into a fireball and blasted towards Andrud's half court. Faced with such a serve, Andrud had no way to deal with it, and could only admire the beautiful scenery of the volcanic eruption from close range again and again.
"ACE! 30-0!"
"ACE! 40-0!"
"GAME! Kintaro Toyama! 2-0!"
The third game was Andrud's serve. Although he was very shocked just now, the idea of not losing did not let him give up easily, and he tried hard to serve the tennis ball again.
Unfortunately, even if Kintaro's strength was limited to 60%, it was still far beyond him, and this was still the case without opening the Tianyi. If Kintaro opened the Tianyi, Andrud probably couldn't even touch the ball.
"GAME! Kintaro Toyama! 3-0! Pause and rest!"
In this way, Kintaro won the third game again. Richard on the sidelines began to get impatient. This was completely different from what he expected. Didn't the guy named Kintaro promise that he would lose?
At this time, Andrude walked off the court. Richard just looked at him and said lightly:
"If you lose this game, you know what the consequences will be!"
For the first time, a look of panic appeared on Andrude's face, which had never changed for thousands of years. Then his eyes became more determined. He must not lose. He would never want to go back to the past life.
But sometimes you can't do it just because you want to. In the fourth game, Kintaro hit four volcanic eruption balls again. Although Andrude tried to fight back, that force was not something he could contend with now.
"ACE! 15-0!"
"30-0!"
"40-0!"
"GAME! Kintaro Toyama! 4-0!"
Just when Kintaro won the fourth game, Richard suddenly looked at Kintaro, and his eyes seemed to ask, "Didn't you promise me to lose?"
When Kintaro noticed Richard's gaze, he nodded to him immediately, which made Richard feel relieved. However, Kintaro was thinking at this time: It seems that this uncle thinks that I haven't used my full strength yet~
Then when Andrud sent the tennis ball in the fifth game, Kintaro immediately flashed to the landing point and hit it back, and then began to rotate quickly on the spot, and soon a huge tornado appeared on the court.
Andrud had completely lost the ability to think, but instinctively hit the tennis ball back, and then the tennis ball was blown high into the sky by the tornado. The next second, Kintaro somersaulted out of the tornado, and after reaching high altitude, he hit the tennis ball hard.
"Uncle! Did you see it? This is my full strength-super invincible and absolutely delicious Big Wheel Mountain Storm!" Kintaro shouted loudly.
A dazzling red light enveloped the entire court, and the tennis ball also blasted towards Andrud like a meteorite. Andrud's instinct told him that he must dodge, and his body honestly followed his instinct and jumped to the left to avoid the tennis ball.
The tennis ball hit the ground directly, shaking the entire stadium. Then smoke and dust rose up, causing the audience in the front row to cover their mouths and noses.
"0-15!"
After this ball, Andrud completely lost his faith in resistance. Soon, Kintaro won the game very easily, which made him a little disappointed.
"GAME! 6-0! The game is over! The winner is Toyama Kintaro!"
