The Great Demon King of Internet

Chapter 144, the biggest difficulty in the North American Division

"Byodoin-kun, do you think Omagari-kun can survive the fourth round?"

Byodoin Phoenix glanced at Coach Saito who was asking the question.

"I know what your coaching staff is worried about. If you continue to fight, that man will definitely persist until the end. However, this consumes too much on him and is very likely to affect his future tennis life. He should not lose his ability in tennis. here!"

"In that case..."

"Hmph! Haven't your coaching staff already made a decision? Don't worry about what I think. Just transfer the guy who dares to challenge me."

Coach Kurobe flipped through the information: "Actually, we don't need to be so pessimistic. In the first three rounds, Portugal faced the United States and the United Kingdom in succession. Basically all the main players' appearances were used up, leaving only substitute players. Their situation was worse than ours. It’s going to be miserable.”

Byodoin nodded slightly: "This is quite good news, so let us stand on guard for the last time!"

…………

The fourth round officially begins, with Mei’s team playing against Portugal.

But the one who played in the first game was not a player from the Plum Team, but No. 13 Tokugawa Kazuya who was seconded from the Bamboo Team.

The nervousness on the face of this young boy who was debuting in the world for the first time was visible to the naked eye.

But Tokugawa seemed to be born to adapt to such a big scene. After adjusting his breathing a few times, he returned to normal.

Unexpectedly, I had to join that man and be led by him.

But, this is for the victory of Neon, I shouldn’t be influenced by personal likes and dislikes.

Now, I have only one goal, and that is to fight with all my strength for Neon's victory.

It is obligatory! !
The first set was decided by Tokugawa Kazuya.

"Symphony...serve!!"

A very elegant swing posture, the tennis ball played is surrounded by a mysterious rainbow light.

Tokugawa's serve flashed strangely three times in the air, and flashed past the blind spot while the opponent was stunned.

"15:0"

Byodoin Phoenix snorted: "You don't look as useless as before!"

Oni Jujiro nodded slightly: "Although he is not mature enough, he can still manage to be on his own."

Irie smiled and said, "Tokugawa-kun is making rapid progress!"

On the court, Tokugawa Kazuya's strong posture and elegant playing style made Portugal's starting singles miserable and exhausted.

He is just a substitute for the Portuguese first team, and his strength has just reached the world level.

And Tokugawa's strength has reached the level of the middle of the Neon Army, so he can naturally deal with players of this level with ease.

After 30 minutes, Tokugawa easily won the first game with a score of 6:0, getting a good start.

…………

The games on the court continued, and before they knew it, four games had been played.

The combination of Kiritanihara and Izo Kanda, who was seconded from the Yomatsu team, won a doubles match with a score of 6:3.

Duke Watanabe easily won 6-0.

Mitsuya Akuto and Buwa Ironman teamed up to win another match with a score of 6:1.

Coach Saito said softly: "Looking at Portugal's formation, they are indeed at the end of their rope."

Kurobe nodded and said: "Yes, like Serbia, they are also following the elite route. At present, they still have a main singles player and a group of doubles main players who still have the number of appearances. It seems that Portugal is prepared to retain its strength and plan to give up this It’s a round of duel.”

The decision made by the Portuguese head coach was expected.

They fell behind by 25 points in the first three games. In the last two games, even if they brought in their main players and kept two clean sheets, it was already a losing situation.

If you continue to be stubborn and fight with Neon until the end, you are simply sick.

Therefore, in the last doubles and singles, Portugal symbolically sent in second- and third-line substitutes to deal with official matters.

Fifteen minutes later, Byodoin Phoenix won the singles match 15:6, bringing a successful conclusion to the fourth round showdown.

…………

The fifth round is the highlight of the North American Division and the biggest difficulty in the second round of U17 points qualifying.

The fifth in the world, the United States. Before the game, Coach Kurobe handed the results of the investigation to Setsuna Hata with a serious face.

"After all, the United States is a country with a large population and a very rich talent base. They are well prepared for this North American competition. Like the United Kingdom, they have recruited many world-class players who are stuck in the upper limit of 18 years old. Therefore, after four rounds, , their current U17 main players still have plenty of appearances.”

This is a gap in foundation. No matter how professional the Neon coaching staff is, it cannot make up for the lack of national strength.

Setsuna Hatada is open-minded.

"No matter what the result is, just try your best."

…………

The next day, in the fifth round, the focus battle officially started.

The first starter for the Matsu team was Aku Tsujin.

The American team sent their vice-captain, sophomore Alan Hopkins.

For this unimpressive opponent, the coaching staff couldn't give much good advice.

Because Alan Hopkins joined the U.S. U17 not long ago, he officially joined the team just before the start of the second round of points competition.

Not long after Hopkins joined the team, he was directly promoted to the high position of vice-captain.

It shows that this person has unknown extraordinary strength.

However, for Akutsujin, even if the opponent is unknown enough to be an alien pretending to be an alien, he will not take it seriously.

He has only one fighting principle. Anyone who dares to stand in front of him on the court is his hunting target.

…………

"Double Takese Kan!"

Unstoppable energy surrounds the return ball.

The penetrating power of this ultimate move, Stacking Jin+Taketsuki, cannot be matched by anything other than a different-dimensional force.

Although Hopkins found the best hitting point for this move, he could only block the first attack of Takese Tsuki.

The second force directly swung his racket away, scoring points simply and crudely.

"Game, Aku Tsujin wins this game, 2:0"

Everyone in the army looked at each other.

Although it is good that Aku Tsujin is in the lead, the vice-captain on the opposite side is a bit mediocre.

Aku Tsujin didn't even use his special dimension, but he was already in a crushing situation.

But looking at the American regular team members opposite, they all had calm expressions on their faces, as if they were sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.

It doesn't look like a bluff.

Irie Kanata approached Hatada Setsuna and asked softly: "Setsuna-kun, have you found any clues?"

Hatada Setsuna shook his head: "The opponent was very calm. After playing two rounds, he only showed a mental trait. The insight-type 'scan' seemed to be assessing Akutsujin's physical fitness. But I don't know what the specific means are. Good judgment.”

Mitsuya Akuto flipped through his information book: "This player named Hopkins has a title called 'Tennis Doctor'. It is said that every opponent he fought had serious sports problems." damage."

Shuji Taneshima asked curiously: "Is it possible that he is a violent player?"

Mitsuya Akuto denied: "That's not the case. He has never used a tennis ball to attack his opponent's body. But the strange thing is that his opponents, without exception, all encountered all kinds of strange sudden sports accidents. There are very few people who can fight him to the end.”

On the court, looking at the strong Akutsujin, Hopkins sighed slightly.

This young man has a perfect body blessed by God!
Those weird playing postures, if replaced by ordinary players, with just a little guidance, cramps, dislocations, strains and other sports strains will occur.

But he can still look normal and move freely in this way that violates the laws of motion.

After watching two whole games, I couldn't find any exploitable problems.

After playing tennis for so many years, this is the first time I have met such a player.

He is simply the nemesis of his own abilities.

There is no other way, it seems that the only option is to intervene forcefully! !
