As Oishi sent the tennis ball out, Shishito Ryo hit the tennis ball back in the backcourt, and at the same time, he moved quickly with his feet and ran directly to the net.
"This is a dual-network strategy!"
The audience who knew about doubles exclaimed slightly, and among the crowd, Mamoru Inoue also had a glint in his eyes.
The double net tactic is to give up the bottom line defense during the game and use two people to intercept and attack in front of the net at the same time to completely suppress the opponent.
To simply understand, it is to move the defense line from the bottom line to the front of the net. This tactic is very lethal and if used properly, it will put strong pressure on the opponent.
However, there are also weaknesses in the double net strategy. Once the net player does not grasp the opportunity well, or the volley in front of the net is not fierce enough, he is likely to encounter countermeasures from the opponent's "lob" or "cross ball", resulting in losing points.
This greatly tests the players' ability to volley at the net.
"Double Internet strategy?"
On the court, Kikumaru saw the opponents rushing towards the net, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. After knocking back Shishito's counterattack, he turned to Oishi beside him and said: "Oishi, let them see your climbing skills later."
Moon Volley."
"Okay."
Dashi nodded, then stood on the baseline, ready to hit back the tennis ball from the opponent.
Outside the court, watching Shishito rush to the net, General Kannashi frowned slightly. Double netting might be useful against other opponents, but for Oishi, who has the ability to hit the tennis ball back to the backcourt, the double netting tactic would undoubtedly be a recipe for death.
.
It stands to reason that Shishido has also seen Shuichiro Oishi use the moon-climbing volley, so this kind of mistake should not have happened.
Unless, Shishido is about to show something...
He relaxed his brows and stared at Shishito on the court. He was looking forward to seeing what kind of surprise Shishito would bring him and the Hyokui.
When Kikumaru's counterattack flew over the net, a figure had already flown to the ball.
It was Ryo Shishido. He was half squatting on the ground, holding the racket tightly with both hands, aiming at the tennis ball, waving it into an afterimage, and letting out a soft drink:
"Super high-speed half volley..."
…
Bang...
Crackling…
The tennis ball was hit back by Shishito, like a yellow light and shadow, flying quickly across the mountain, leaving a white mark and disappearing.
"15:0, Hyotei Academy Ryo Shishito and Jirou Akutagawa scored."
After the referee finished speaking, Shishido pointed at Shuichiro Oishi with his racket: "I know you have a special move to deal with double netting. What I want to do is to prevent you from hitting it."
"Sure enough, Hyotei's main selection cannot be underestimated." Hearing Shishito's words, Oishi Shuichiro sighed softly. He knew in his heart that although he had just broken serve, his opponent was not that simple. The outcome of this game was just a matter of time.
Start.
……
Outside the stadium.
"Shishido, it seems your efforts were not in vain."
Looking at Shishido on the court, a faint smile appeared on Kami Shinichi's stern face. In the past few months, among the Hyotei main candidates, Akutsu and Shishido Ryo have trained the hardest. Even Atobe and Shen Wuxin himself can't compare to these two people.
Shishido is a real man. As long as there is a slight possibility of breakthrough in tennis, he will keep working hard, and this is Shishido's tennis.
"Relying on the explosive force generated by the rapid movement of the feet, and then using the strength of the upper waist and abdomen to swing the racket, is this a super-high-speed half-volley?"
In the Yamabuki player area, Inui Sadaharu frowned and put away his notebook. He had not collected any information about Shishito Ryo's move.
……
On the court.
The four of them are still fighting back and forth.
"Super high-speed half volley..."
Bang...
Crackling...
"Game, Hyotei Academy, score 3:3, both sides draw."
Relying on Shishito's ultra-high-speed half volley, Hyotei also broke serve in this game.
After that, it was Hyotei Shishito's turn to serve. After sending the tennis ball, he quickly moved forward.
Bang...
"Super high-speed half volley..."
“…15:0…”
……
Bang...
"Super high-speed half volley..."
“…40:0…”
……
Bang...
"Game, score 4:3, Hyotei Academy Ryo Shishito and Jirou Akutagawa are in the lead."
This time it was no longer Shishido who fought back, but Akutagawa Jirou used a beautiful short volley. Hyokui once again secured serve and took the lead temporarily.
Jirou Akutagawa, who had won the game, faced Oishi and Kikumaru with a smile on his face: "Don't forget, there is me."
After hearing Jirou Akutagawa's words, Oishi and Kikumaru looked at each other. In the game just now, both of them focused on Shido, but they didn't expect that Jirou Akutagawa would exert his strength at the last point of the game.
"Oishi, Ice King is really strong, but we must win this game."
Kikumaru's face was extremely solemn. If Yamabuki loses again in this doubles match, there will be no chance at all.
"Well, Kikumaru, let's get started."
After Oishi finished speaking, he quickly set up the Australian formation with Eiji Kikumaru. Unlike the combination of Kentaro Minami and Masaya Higashikata, whether it was Oishi or Kikumaru, their attack power was far superior to the combination of Minami and Higashikata.
From this moment on, the court also became anxious.
"Game, Yamabuki Middle School, score 4:4, both sides draw."
……
"Game, Hyotei Academy, score 5:5, both sides draw."
……
"Game, Hyotei Academy, score 6:6, both sides draw."
……
"I never imagined that the doubles match between Shishido, Jirou and Yamabuki would be so intense."
Outside the court, watching the four people running on the court, Yushi Ninzu pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and looked at Hyotei's other doubles player Jirou Akutagawa, with worry on his face: "It's just Jirou's physical strength.
It seems to be overdrawn."
"Kikumaru on the opposite side also has very little energy left. Whoever persists to the end of this match will be the winner." Kanna Shinichi said calmly from the side.
Compared to others who value the outcome of this game, Kanna Shinichi cares more about the growth of Shido and Jirou. After all, even if he loses this game, it doesn't hurt Kanna Shinichi.
He doesn't think Yamabuki can beat Hyotei in singles.
……
"I never expected that this doubles match would turn into a physical duel." In the Yamabuki player area, Fuji Shusuke looked at Kikumaru Eiji with worry in his eyes.
"We have to believe in Oishi and the others. They will definitely win this game." Next to him, Takashi Kawamura also set his sights on Kikumaru.
At this time, outside the court, the cheerleaders also began to cheer for the players, and they gave strength to the players with their shouts.
"The winner will be the Ice Emperor..."
……
"The mountain blows will surely win..."
……
On the court, listening to the cheers outside the court, the four people looked at each other and smiled at each other, and then began the final tiebreaker.
Only in the tiebreaker, both sides refused to give in to each other.
"1:1, Hyotei Academy score."
……
"8:7, Hyotei Academy score."
……
"12:12, Yamabuki Middle School scores."
……
"17:16, Yamabuki Middle School takes the lead."
The game has reached Yamabuki's match point.
"Ci Lang..."
Shishido Ryo looked at Jirou Akutagawa beside him, who was already drowsy and almost falling to the ground. He understood that Jirou had no physical strength.
On the opposite side of the court, Kikumaru Eiji was also swaying. He looked back at the Yamabuki player area and saw the worries on the faces of Tezuka, Fuji, and Sengoku, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Turning around, Kikumaru looked at Oishi beside him and said softly: "Oishi, we must win this game."
……
Bang...
"18:16, Yamabuki Middle School scored."
"Game, the game is over, the score is 7:6, the combination of Yamabuki Middle School Kikumaru Eiji and Oishi Shuichiro won."
After more than an hour of fierce fighting in the doubles, Yamabuki was moved back to the first round. The total score between Hyotei and Yamabuki came to 1:1.
At this time, Kanzaki looked across the court and saw that Tezuka Kunimitsu had already picked up the racket and started to warm up.
"Tezuka Kunimitsu, three singles, it is you..."
