Chapter 310: Luck Kiko, Sleeping Maori

"Game, the American team scored, the score is 4 to 2!"

Fifteen minutes later, as the sound of the ball disappeared, the referee announced the current scores of both sides.

After the third game, the two teams that were in sync gradually began to open up a gap between them.

Although the two teams seemed evenly matched, the American team always managed to get the key ball in the game.

And every crucial ball ended with Chico seemingly "hitting the target by accident".

"That Chico on the other side, his luck is a little too good, isn't it? Even the guy from Yamabuki Junior High School who was once called the 'Lucky Thousand Goku' didn't have such ridiculous luck."

In the preparation area, Fuji Shusuke couldn't help but speak.

This was the only thing he wanted to say after witnessing the first few games.

He had no choice but to think like that, as there were several people in the preparation area who had the same idea as him.

Chico of the American team would occasionally make some "mistakes" in his return shots, but these returns could cause considerable trouble to the Japanese team.

"If you really think so, you have completely fallen into your opponent's trap, Fuji."

Listening to Fuji Shusuke's complaints, Yuuki Maya replied with a faint smile.

"Hmm? Could it be that..."

Fuji turned his head with a dull expression. He knew that Yuki never said anything without meaning to.

"A single coincidence can be considered luck, but when this seemingly coincidental occurrence occurs in multiple forms, it can no longer be called luck at all," said Maya Yuuki bluntly.

"You mean, that guy played like that on purpose?"

After hearing this, Fuji asked uncertainly.

"Yes and no. To be precise, it was the guy named Chico who mastered the use of luck in his own way."

“Luck is passive, and those who can actively control their luck can no longer be called lucky, but should be called strong luck.”

Yuuki Maya expressed his understanding, and his words were not avoided by anyone except Fuji, so they were naturally heard by Byodoin and others who were present.

"Good luck? As expected of you, that's a very accurate assessment."

Byodoin Phoenix nodded affirmatively. In fact, he had already figured out the trick, but he was unable to verbally describe the specific content as clearly as Yuki.

"Is there really someone who can control such an illusory thing? If that's true, Ochi and the others are in a very bad situation now." Tokugawa Kazuya said in a deep voice with a serious expression.

"Mori-senpai will never sit still and wait for death."

Marui Bunta looked towards the tennis court and said in a serious tone.

The following game was exactly as he said. After the start of the seventh inning, Maori Jusaburo immediately made changes.

When Chico "accidentally" hit a net ball again, before the tennis ball fell, a dark shadow suddenly appeared behind him.

Maori had appeared here at some point in time, and his eyes were blurry, like a person who was about to fall asleep.

But in complete contrast to his expression, his catching movement was swift and efficient.

The racket was swung fiercely, and the tennis ball instantly penetrated the blind spot between Chico and Alan on the opposite side.

0 is better than 15
The Japanese team broke the opponent's serve forcefully, disrupting the opponent's offensive rhythm.

"Has Maori-senpai entered [Sleep Mode]?!"

Sanada outside the field was slightly surprised. After all, in his impression, it would take some time for Maori to prepare to get into this state.

"Is that [Sleeping Tennis]? It's just as described in the information. The speed of the shot and the sensitivity of the spin have been greatly improved." In the backcourt of the American team, Alan silently looked at the sleepy Maori, surprised and thinking for a moment in his mind.

This was not the first time that the opponent had used this trick, but Alan was still surprised when he actually faced it.

After all, playing tennis while sleeping sounds exaggerated just by hearing about it, let alone seeing it with your own eyes.

However, when Alan thought about the fact that his partner Chico was also a weirdo, he felt that playing tennis while sleeping was not something that he could not accept.

砰

砰

砰

As Maori entered sleep mode, his movements became more efficient.

And because of this, some of Chico's "luck" balls that originally worked immediately lost their effectiveness.

0 is better than 30
0 is better than 40
4 is better than 3
……

On the tennis court, Maori and Ochi switched positions tacitly, while Alan on the other side suddenly had a flash in his eyes, and then his arm suddenly turned, changing the angle at the moment of swinging the racket.

His original idea of ​​hitting a flat shot with a backspin changed instantly as Ochi came to the front court, and it became a very bold topspin through ball.

This action surprised everyone present, because Ochi's height was undoubtedly a high wall when standing in the front court. Normally, no one would think of shooting a through ball at him, which would be tantamount to suicide.

But because of Alan's reverse thinking, Yuchi failed to react in time and the tennis ball passed him in the blink of an eye.

But at this moment, a figure blocked the path of the tennis ball like lightning.

Maori, with his eyes closed, stopped and changed his pace halfway through his switch to the backcourt, and intercepted the opponent's sneak attack with his backhand.

"Game, Japan scores, the score is 4 to 4!"

The referee announced the scores at the right time, and after two more rounds of competition, both sides are back to the same starting line again.

"What a quick reaction! Senior Maori's current condition is amazing..."

Marui Bunta called it terrifying. If he had encountered the same ball just now, he would probably not be able to react at all.

However, even with such a situation as Maori, the Byodoin Phoenix who was watching the battle fell silent for a rare moment.

Then, he asked in a low voice: "Tokugawa, tell me what you think now..."

"Mori-senpai seems to be working a little too hard?"

Because he had little contact with Mori, Tokugawa could only make his judgment based on his own intuition.

Byodoin Phoenix nodded slightly, as if agreeing with Tokugawa's point of view.

Then, he turned his gaze towards Mao Li on the court and said calmly, "This is the first time I've seen him enter [Sleep Mode] so quickly."

"In other words, rather than actively seeking change, Mao Li was forced to use his trump card."

"This also indirectly shows that he no longer has the option to keep this trump card."

The words of the Byodoin Phoenix dealt a heavy blow to Marui and others who were still excited about Mori's outstanding performance.

They had never imagined that the situation, which seemed to be gradually turning in their favor, actually had such a sinister background behind it.

"Game, Japan scores, the score is 5 to 4!"

A few minutes later, the referee announced the decision loudly again, and the first game finally came to the match point.
