I'm in NetKing, and I have a tennis mini-game

"We can only hope that the head coach of the Japanese team did not put all the team's strongest players in this round of 16."

Reinhardt sighed inwardly.

Although there were indeed hidden strengths in the game, he was also very clear that if he was facing the fifth-ranked team in the world, he would not take it lightly.

"Hello."

After thinking about it, Reinhardt took the initiative to step forward and extended his hand to the other party.

"Hello."

Ishikawa nodded.

He would not underestimate the young man in front of him. After all, in the original novel, this young man defeated Amadeus head-on. If we really talk about comprehensive strength, the American team is definitely at the big 4 level.

But it's a pity.

Reinhard was later tricked by Ryuga Echizen.

Otherwise, with the Echizen brothers and Reinhardt and others in the lineup, it is not impossible to challenge the German team.

nowadays.

This team, ranked fifth in the world in points, was obviously in an awkward situation. Others could not see it, and Reinhardt concealed it well, but Ishikawa, who defeated Amadeus and obtained the opponent's seventh consciousness [Manas], saw it at a glance.

His mental strength is inherently powerful.

Especially the existence of the Eye of Truth and omniscience, which made him almost invincible in terms of insight. The addition of manas made Ishikawa's insight reach an unprecedented level.

It can be said.

Even top professional players may not have the insight that he has today.

"Ok?"

In response to this, Reinhardt, who had a very keen sense, had the illusion that his secret was seen through the moment he looked at the other party.

"Shin Ishikawa"

Reinhardt whispered the other person's name in his heart and nodded: "Then let's go all out in the game."

"Ah."

Ishikawa nodded: "Then let's get started."

Subsequently.

The two led their respective players off the court. After a short break, the referee said, "Next, the doubles 2 match will begin."

"The American team's representatives, Alan Hopkins (3rd year of high school) and Rocky Elvis (3rd year of junior high school), face the Japanese team's representatives, Irie Kanata (3rd year of high school) and Niou Masaharu (3rd year of junior high school). Please prepare yourselves."

"Is the vice-captain taking the lead?"

After hearing the lineup announced by the referee, some representatives of the American team showed surprised expressions: "For doubles, isn't the strength of the vice-captain a bit too much of a waste?"

Alan Hopkins.

After Echizen Ryuga left, he was undoubtedly the second-in-command of the American team. In terms of personal reputation and strength, he was the first person under Reinhardt.

In everyone's imagination, such a character should be arranged to play singles, right?

"really."

After hearing the lineup of the American team, the Japanese team's staff officer adjusted his glasses and nodded, "Just as we predicted, the American team must ensure a doubles victory."

Ishikawa's performance was too eye-catching. His strength was undoubtedly at the dominant level. Even Reinhardt did not dare to collide with him easily.

This way.

The American team had to ensure that they won at least one doubles match. What was unexpected was that the other team sent out a master like Hopkins.

"That's right, their tactics should be that."

Liu narrowed his eyes and said, "Seize the initiative, or even win the first three games in one go. Avoid the game from getting into a tug-of-war."

have to say.

Although the American tactics were bold, they also worked wonders. At least, Mifune and Ishikawa did not put players of the level of Byodoin or Oni in the doubles.

Now, to outsiders.

In this doubles match, the American team has already achieved at least a 2% chance of winning. The rest depends on whether the Japanese players can withstand the offensive of the second American.

"Irie Kanata?"

the other side.

In the direction of the American team, the black youth Obondu said unexpectedly: "If I remember correctly, this person didn't seem to play in the previous games, right?"

"Indeed, that junior high school student did perform well. As for this high school student..."

Balentin, who looked very feminine, looked at the orange-haired young man who was also short and wore oval glasses, and squinted his eyes and said, "I didn't expect that the Japanese team was so bold. They actually sent new players to a match like the round of 16."

"That's the opportunity Ralph was talking about."

Obondu nodded and said, "On paper, we are indeed inferior to the Japanese team. But as long as we can use the lineup reasonably and flexibly, the disadvantage can be turned into an advantage."

That's right.

The American team's tactics were very old-fashioned, which was to use the first three moves in one go. But the simpler the moves, the more effective they were.

At least, in the eyes of the American team's players, they already have more than 70% chance of winning this game.

"Will it really go so smoothly?"

Compared to the optimism of the other two, Reinhardt narrowed his eyes. He was very good at judging people, but just now, when he was sizing up the Japanese team representative named Irie, he was caught by the other party in an instant.

Reinhardt saw it clearly.

There was a teasing and cunning gleam in the other person's eyes, as if he could see through his thoughts.

"Irie Kanata."

Reinhardt took a breath.

Even though he was reluctant to believe it, his intuition told him that this doubles match might not go as smoothly as he imagined.

"Alan."

Thinking of this, the captain of the American team looked deeply at the back of his vice-captain: "Everything is up to you!"

tread!

tread!

then.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the players from both teams walked onto the court.

No excessive small talk.

After both sides have finished guessing the right to serve, they will each enter their own range.

"The match is best of three sets."

The referee on the high chair said, "First set, Elvis from the American team serves, game over!"

The words fell.

The scene quickly became quiet.

Chapter 459: The Battle between Son of the Sun and the Trickster

Snapped!

Snapped!

Snapped!

As the referee's voice fell, the audience's attention was focused on the tall blond boy on one side of the court.

"Rocky Elvis."

Off the field.

Mitsuya, the staff officer of the Japanese team, said, "He is one of the best junior high school students on the American team. In the final battle of the East and West Conferences in the United States, the team he led won first place."

"If that's the case, he is indeed a powerful character."

Tanedima on the side said with a smile: "After all, in the United States with 300 million people, it is not easy to defeat others and become the strongest one."

Tennis population is one of the limiting factors for comprehensive tennis strength.

The United States is much stronger than Japan in this regard. The difficulty of winning the East-West Finals among all 50 states in the United States is definitely higher than that of the Japanese junior high school national competition.

to some extent.

This boy named Rocky Elvis is one of the leading figures among American middle school students today.

The man had golden hair fluttering in the wind, and was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with the Stars and Stripes on it. On both shoulders were tattoos of skull and sun symbols.

"The Japanese team?"

Elvis raised his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Let me see if you are our strong enemy as Captain Ralph said!"

call!

Thoughts turned.

He threw the tennis ball up and fixed his eyes on the silver-blue-haired boy opposite him.

"This ball is my gift to you!"

boom!

With a bang.

The tennis ball flew across the court at an alarming speed, like a burning bullet. In an instant, a deep red color flashed, and then there was a bang, and the tennis ball had already landed near the service line.

"Is this... a bullet serve?!"

In the stands.

Hiyoshi, Momoshiro and the others subconsciously widened their eyes.

Because this ball looks like the fast serve they mastered, but Elvis's ball is obviously faster and stronger.
