Chapter 79: Move them with the ball, enlighten them with...
"hehe……"
Akutsu snorted coldly twice. He was so angry at Kamishima Yu that he couldn't speak. In his entire life, he had never seen anyone more arrogant than him.
"You, go to hell!"
Swish!
The tennis ball flew, and then his arm swung again with even more anger.
Akutsu growled and dunked the tennis ball towards Uesugi Yu's half of the court.
"Hmm... this is a good shot. I know how to hit it at a more tricky angle."
Uesugi Yuu observed and admired. Akutsu's quality is indeed enviable, and it feels like he can improve a little bit every time he studies.
but……
"Brute force alone won't solve problems in tennis."
Shang Shanyou's eyes moved around, with a chuckle on his lips, and a barely detectable green light surged from the racket.
Swish~
Type 1: Slash!
Aiming at the tennis ball bouncing from the serving line, Shangshan You made a backhand slice.
Whoosh…
The tennis ball spun at high speed in the air, and after flying over the middle net, it suddenly accelerated and fell towards the ground in an arc like the bend of a banana.
Even with Akutsu's reflexes, he didn't expect the ball to change like this. This made it impossible for him to hit back in advance.
However, although he was deceived by the changeup, his super flexible body paused and forcedly twisted the direction of his entire body. His body, close to the ground, was like a cheetah, and he caught up with the fallen tennis ball in two strides.
"Don't be too proud~"
With a hint of excitement, Akutsu's racket hit the tennis ball hard .
Tsk… tsk…tsk…
However, the moment the racket just touched the ball, a huge rotational force came from the racket.
Snap...
Akutsu, who was always straightforward, had the racket in his hand knocked off his hand.
"It's 40-0, Akutsu-san."
Looking at Akutsu who had a somewhat unbelievable look on his face, Uesugi Yuu smiled with his eyes narrowed.
"hateful!"
Akutsu clenched his fist and pounded the ground hard, and he was tricked by Shangshanyou again.
Picking up the racket on the ground again, he stared at Ueyama Yu's face. Seeing the smile on Ueyama Yu's face, Akutsu wanted to go up and punch him twice.
boom!
…
boom!
With a beautiful smash, Uesugi Yu took the lead.
"Game, Kamisama Yuu, 1-0."
With a hint of ulterior motive in his tone, Shang Shanyou announced the score in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"What's wrong? Is this our sports genius who is good at everything? I guess that's all..."
When the serve was exchanged, Uesugi Yuu tossed the tennis ball up and down while making some sarcastic remarks. His appearance was simply too arrogant.
"Asshole, don't be so proud, come again!"
Akutsu felt like his lungs were about to explode, and his face was filled with shame and anger.
He had never felt so restrained when doing sports. It seemed that Shangshan You could guess his thoughts every time and used the small tennis ball in his hand to play him around.
"Well... since you asked me to do so, then... watch out~"
Snapped!
With a chuckle, Shangshan swept his palm horizontally and grabbed the flying tennis ball with a snap.
then.
Swish~
He threw the tennis ball high up, and his strong body curves were all revealed at this moment, and he took a standard full-body coordinated force posture.
call……
With a slight smile on his lips, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared on his racket.
boom!
"Type 4: Far Thunder!"
There was a crackling sound from the racket, and a golden irregular lightning bolt pointed directly at Akutsu's crotch.
"What!?"
Akutsu's pale yellow pupils shrank. In his eyes, a terrifying golden thunder came crashing down from the opposite side. The mighty power of heaven made his wild beast instinctively perceive it and the hairs all over his body stood up.
Crack!
The tennis ball left a golden afterimage and passed directly under Akutsu's crotch.
"15-0"
Akutsu turned his head with a stiff expression and looked at the tennis ball on the grass behind him.
"That was a tennis ball?"
With a lingering fear in his heart, Akutsu looked at Uesugi Yuu opposite him again.
"What happened to that ball just now..."
Akutsu asked in a hoarse voice, if he didn't figure it out, how could he possibly beat this kind of tennis?
"Now you know that tennis is not that easy..." Shangshan You said with a smile.
When Akutsu first learned tennis, he never met any top players. After he made a middle school student cry with his strong physique and nerve reaction, he thought tennis was no different from other sports.
If guys who are several years older than him can't beat him, how can there be a strong player in tennis? With this thought in mind, he threw the tennis racket behind him without hesitation.
“Come again!”
Seeing that Uesugi Yuu had no intention of explaining, Akutsu's expression became much more serious. His pair of light yellow eyes stared at Uesugi Yuu's movements.
Looking at Akutsu's expression, Uesugi Yu knew what he was thinking. As far as he could remember, when Akutsu learned about the light ball, he also relied on his eyesight to record it first.
With the support of that outstanding body , his ball sense and eyesight are also top-notch.
"You want to learn? Well... I'll teach you~"
For some reason, this line vaguely came to mind, and Uesugi Yuu felt very happy.
Next up... Water Breathing...
hiss……
The breathing pattern changed slightly, but the start was still the same.
Boom!
With a dull sound, the tennis ball turned into a huge column of water and smashed towards Akutsu.
"Eighth Form: Takitsubo!"
When Ueyama Yu kicked off the game, Akutsu sensitively sensed the change in Ueyama Yu's aura, which directly changed from the original sharp and terrifying to the current majestic and deep.
The tennis ball that came out of his hand was no longer the lightning as before. Instead, a column of water with terrifying power emerged from the sky, severely suppressing his body that wanted to move.
Snapped!
Water splashed everywhere, and the tennis ball rolled quietly behind him.
"30-0"
Shang Shanyou's eyes were deep. The aura on Akutsu's body just now also condensed into one in an instant, but it was a pity that he was just resisting unconsciously and didn't know how to use it.
…
After Uesugi Yu showed off his tennis skills beyond the normal range, Akutsu seemed like a completely different person.
Although his style of play was still the same, he calmed down from his previous frenzy. One goal, two goals... Unconsciously, without even noticing, Akutsu had become more delicate in some areas.
boom!
"2-0"
…
boom!
"4-0"
…
boom!
Uesugi Yu took a light step, lowered the racket and pulled the ball, and a sharp shot bounced twice at Akutsu's feet.
"Game, Uesugi Yuu, 6-0."
Shangshan announced the final score with a smile and put the racket back on his shoulder.
"It looks like Akutsu-san needs more practice. It's only been fifteen minutes and you haven't scored a single point."
Walking to the net with relaxed steps, Uesugi Yuu smiled at Akutsu who was standing there.
Akutsu seemed to be deaf to Yu Uesugi's teasing. He let his arms hang naturally, lowered his head and breathed softly.
It's not that he didn't dare to face it, but at the end of the game, he noticed that the corners of his mouth were subconsciously raised.
Is he also very happy?
No!
Akutsu tried hard to summon up the anger in his heart and forced his face to return to its usual ferocious look.
"What do you want to do to me?"
After a moment, Akutsu looked up and stared at the boy in front of the net who was beating him in "all aspects".
"It's the same reason as before. Your talent shouldn't be wasted like this. Akutsu, do you think I'm the strongest right now?"
Uesugi Yu also looked at Akutsu seriously.
"I tell you, no. Maybe I am one of the best in Neon Middle School, but there are many players who are stronger than me in the high school department and even in the world. Don't you want to see such a good talent?"
There was a flash of ambition in Uesugi Yu's eyes, and Akutsu was shocked by his vision and courage for a moment, and he unconsciously felt a sense of pride in his heart to surpass all those people.
"Besides, if you become a top professional tennis player, Aunt Yuuki will have an easier time in the future. She should be the one who wants you to succeed the most."
A strange look flashed across Akutsu's eyes, and Uesugi Yuu's last words touched his heart.
"Okay... that's it. I hope to see you in the second half of Hyotei's school year in two months."
Without waiting for Akutsu's answer, Uesugi Yu waved his hand and left alone with his golf bag on his back.
Akutsu silently gazed at the back figure that was stretched out very long by the setting sun.
"hiss……"
Just as he was about to raise his hand to wipe the sweat off his face, he suddenly felt a pain. The ball that Kamishima Yuu had hit him on the face had already made it a little red and swollen.
"That bastard!"
Akutsu's eyes suddenly glared in the direction where Uesugi Yuu was leaving.
"I must teach him a lesson next time..."
Having made a secret decision in his mind, Akutsu walked towards home very naturally, holding the tennis racket between his legs.
