After tapping the tennis ball a few times, Schroeder glanced at the opponent. After observing his opponent's position, he threw the tennis ball upwards. Then he jumped up slightly, and immediately aimed at the tennis ball and swung the racket hard.
Next.
Bang...
There was a crackling sound of hitting the ball, and the tennis ball made a sound of breaking through the air. After bouncing on the ground, it flew fiercely towards the inner corner of Taneshima, who was receiving the serve.
Looking at the tennis ball coming at him, Taneshima didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, and directly used his destroying weapon to neutralize the terrifying impact of the tennis ball. Then he raised his racket and hit the tennis ball back.
Bang...
However, as soon as Taneshima's ball flew over the net, Walter, who was in the opposite frontcourt, had already taken a step, moved sideways to the left, and sprinted towards the landing of the tennis ball.
In just a moment, Walter was already in front of the ball. He stretched out the racket in his left hand and caught the tennis ball that had not yet hit the ground.
When all this was completed, Walter looked up and observed the opponent's position in the opposite half.
However, at this moment, Walter's innocence shrank suddenly, because only Shuji Tanejima was left in the opposite half, while Kanata Irie was nowhere to be found.
"How is it possible..."
Not only Walter was in disbelief, but so was his partner Schroeder.
A big living person suddenly disappeared without a trace on the court.
When everyone outside the venue saw this scene, their eyes were also filled with astonishment. Almost everyone's eyes were subconsciously looking for the figure of Irie Kanata.
Only Kanna sensed Irie's presence with his sense of sight and could immediately see this guy, standing in front of his own half of the net.
"Is it sight induction?" Kanna murmured, and then continued softly: "Is this a new ability?"
After hearing Kanna's words, Atobe on the side couldn't help asking: "Can you see Irie-senpai?"
"Of course." Kanna nodded.
Hearing that Kanna really saw Irie's existence, Atobe couldn't wait to ask: "Where is Irie-senpai?"
"Irie-senpai doesn't always stand in the frontcourt!"
Kanna raised his chin slightly towards Irie on the court. Seeing this, Atobe also looked in the direction pointed by Kanna. However, that half of the court was still empty, with no trace of Irie at all.
.
On the court, after Walter failed to find Ruijiang, there was no time to waste, so he could only frown and hit the tennis ball into the open space in the opposite half of the court.
Bang...
A flash of light flashed, and the tennis ball hit the Neon team's frontcourt. At this time, Kanna had already seen that Irie had raised his racket, pointed it at the tennis ball, and made a light cut horizontally.
Bang...
After a crisp sound of hitting the ball, Irie Kanata's figure suddenly appeared on the court. At this time, the tennis ball had already flown back to the opposite half and fell downwards just after it passed the net.
This was an extremely perfect short ball. The two players from the German team were caught off guard by Irie and had no time to react.
"0:15, Neon team scores."
After the referee's voice fell, many people's expressions were still in shock. They didn't understand why Neon Team's Irie Kanata suddenly appeared again after disappearing.
What the hell is going on?
So everyone's eyes were focused on the young man with glasses in the frontcourt of the Neon team.
In the neon player area, Byodoin gently touched his chin. When he looked at Irie on the field, he revealed doubts and confusion: "Is this also a new ability born under the resonance of abilities?"
p>
As soon as the question from the Byodoin Institute was settled, it was quickly answered.
"Yes, this is the newly born ability of Tanejima-senpai and Irie-senpai due to the resonance of their abilities. If I guessed correctly, the reason why Irie-senpai disappeared was due to sight induction."
Looking at Irie's performance, Kanna was very sure that Irie's move was gaze induction.
"Line sight induction?"
Byodoin looked at Kanna with doubts, while other neon people also cast their eyes on Kanna.
"The so-called gaze induction means that in addition to minimizing your own presence, you also need to use your partner's strong presence to attract everyone's attention;
At this time, the person who uses sight induction has almost no sense of existence. When there is no sense of existence, it gives the enemy the illusion of disappearing."
After Kanna explained the principle of sight induction, he then looked at the two members of the Neon Team on the field, and continued: "Just now Tanejima-senpai was one against two, and at that time he attracted everyone's attention.
This also gave rise to Irie-senpai’s ability to induce sight.”
In fact, Kanna has not finished speaking. There is another weakness of the sight induction trick, that is, it cannot last too long. After all, if you keep scoring points on the court, your sense of presence will gradually recover.
Kanna doesn’t know how long Irujiang’s gaze inducement can last.
At this time, everyone in Neon, after hearing Kami Wu's words, almost understood. To put it simply, for Irie's ability, he must first let his partner attract the firepower. After attracting everyone's attention, he
Only then will there be a chance to show off.
……
On the other side, the faces of everyone in the German player area became extremely serious. They did not expect that at the most important time in the second half of the first set, something would suddenly happen on the court, and all of this was completely unexpected.
outside of the data they collect.
On the court, Schroeder, who was standing in the baseline service area, frowned, his hand holding the racket tightened slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Kanata Irie on the opposite side.
Originally, he and Walter regarded Irie Kanata as a breakthrough point, and planned to start exerting their strength in this game and win the first set.
Unexpectedly, the two members of the Neon Team struck first. This time, they were completely caught off guard. Now even if he and Walter used their strength, it was already a step too late. The opponent had already occupied the position.
Take the lead.
So he turned his attention to his partner Walter, and as if sensing something, Walter also turned his head and looked at Schroeder.
Their eyes met, Schroeder shook his head slightly. As a long-time partner, and now he has turned on high-level synchronization, Walter quickly understood what Schroeder meant by shaking his head.
Delay the use of all your strength, first find out the reason why Irie Kanata disappeared on the court, and then crack this ability in one fell swoop.
Walter has no objection to this.
Seeing this, Schroeder threw the tennis ball high from the baseline, and then hit another serve.
Bang...
The speed of tennis is very fast, hardly giving the opponent much time to react. Like a stream of light, it quickly passes through the opposite half of the court.
Tread...tread...
This time, Irie, who was responsible for catching the ball, did not disappear, but sprinted for a distance on the court.
Because the impact of Schroeder's serve was too high before, Irie suffered several losses and even his racket was damaged several times, so now he wants to use his own sprint power to offset part of the impact of Schroeder's serve. This time, Irie's idea was correct. After some sprinting, the tennis ball was finally included in his racket. Then he slightly turned the racket up and down, using slices and spins to offset the impact of the serve.
After more than half of it, when he felt it was about the same, Irujiang swung out with one shot.
Bang...
The speed of the tennis ball is very fast, but Walter, who is on the opposite half, is not moving too slowly either. With just a few steps of his, he is in front of the tennis ball.
However, when he caught the tennis ball and looked up to the opposite side, he saw that only Shuji Tanejima was left on the court.
"Disappeared again..."
Walter now has no idea how Irie disappeared, and he can't find any trace of Irie, so he has no choice but to hit the tennis ball to the farthest open space on the other side of Tanegashima.
Bang...
However, after Walter hit the tennis ball, a figure suddenly appeared at the empty spot where the tennis ball landed, and then, that figure was seen swinging the racket in his hand.
The person who hit the ball was none other than Kanata Irie who had just disappeared from the stadium.
Bang...
Irie's counterattack was absolutely clever. The tennis ball not only hit Walter's blind spot in the frontcourt, but also used Walter's body to block Schroeder's sight in the backcourt.
When Schroeder discovered tennis, even if he turned on the speed to the extreme, it was still a step too late, and the tennis ball had already hit the ground for the second time.
"0:30, Neon team scores."
After the referee finished speaking, the Neon team had scored two points in a row. At this time, the atmosphere on the German team's side became more serious than before.
In the stands, Lai Inhardt looked at the two Neon players on the field. He couldn't help but sigh: "This doubles team of the Neon team already has the possibility of becoming ace. Maybe it won't be long before they become the ace."
Will officially become a professional doubles team."
Although the results of the U.S. team this year are not ideal, Lainhardt has great ambitions for the future of the U.S. team, that is, to bring the U.S. team into the top four in the world, or even the world championship.
But now, after seeing the showdown between the Neon team and the German team, he discovered how difficult it would be for the American team to win the world championship in the future.
The mountain of the German team has not yet fallen, but a new mountain is gradually forming, including Kami Shinichi, Byodoin Phoenix, Oni Jujiro and the doubles on the field, as well as those junior high school students with endless potential.
…
The potential of the Neon team has surpassed that of all countries in the World Cup. Even if they lost to the German team today, they will still be one of the most powerful contenders for the championship in the next one.
……
Twenty minutes later...
Bang...
Bang...
"Game, the first set is over, the score is 6:4, the Neon team won."
On the court, relying on Irie's new ability, the Neon team first completed the break. Immediately in Tanegashima's serve game, Tanegashima and Irie were on full fire at the same time. One turned on the super attack mode, and the other continued to attack.
The sight inducement was used, and as a result, the two men secured serve and ended the first set.
At this time, although the two players from the German team lost the first set, their expressions remained calm.
When the two sides walked off the court, Walter suddenly said to Schroeder: "You should have noticed the reason why Irie Kanata disappeared."
"Yeah." Schroeder nodded slightly, then turned around and focused his eyes on the two members of the Neon Team: "I didn't expect that the reason why Irie Kanata disappeared was actually from another human race, Shuji Shima.
”
Having said this, Schroeder turned his head and looked at his partner again.
"Now that we understand the reason why our opponent disappeared, we should use our full strength in the next game..."
