"His power? How did he suddenly become so strong?"

Although Muneyoshi lost a point due to Shiraishi's sudden burst of power, he didn't care. Instead, he was curious about Shiraishi's hitting posture.

That action...

The Vajra Wrathful Gaze, the Bodhisattva Downcast Eyes!

"Wow, Shiraishi actually unleashed Gintoki's power this time!"

Hara Tetsuya said with a loud, strange laugh.

"It seems you've found your path to evolution, Shiraishi!"

Seeing this, Watanabe Osamu sat confidently on the referee's bench, watching Shiraishi's increasingly impressive Shiraishi on the field, and he could no longer hide the smile on his lips.

Bang!

Bang!

The game continues on the field.

Muneyoshi could clearly sense that Shiraishi, whom he was fighting, was constantly fluctuating in his five-dimensional attributes.

Whether it's the sudden burst of speed, the abruptly increased force, or the strange spin that suddenly appeared on the tennis ball in that last shot.

This was nothing like the style of Shiraishi, with whom he had played five games before.

All of this was clearly displayed in the five-dimensional chart in his mind, showing Shiraishi's originally perfectly balanced four attribute values.

Just now, however, he kept breaking through his own limits.

The speed bursts to five in an instant, then quickly drops back down; the power also bursts in an instant, then immediately falls back down.

His five dimensions are like a roller coaster, constantly fluctuating.

Of course, there's also the technology aspect, but the fluctuations at this level aren't significant.

If the previous Shiraishi was in a perfect state, like a water-filled balloon, perfectly balanced.

At this moment, it's as if Shiraishi has deliberately chosen to break his own perfect state of harmony.

Although in the very next second after he finishes his attack, these will fall back to their perfect state.

However, such a change has already occurred, and the Bible Tennis that Muneyoshi could previously see through at a glance is now shrouded in a layer of mist.

No one knows what will happen next beneath the fog.

"Could it be...?"

Muneyoshi's eyes were sharp as he looked Shiraishi up and down.

This situation makes it hard for Muneyoshi not to suspect that Shiraishi may have awakened the Bible of Stars prematurely.

Because the resemblance is just too striking.

However, after the Bible of Stars awakens, it will simultaneously stretch all of Shiraishi's other five dimensions to a level that is balanced with the highest attribute.

At this time, Shiraishi had not yet reached that level.

At this moment, it was as if he was sacrificing some of his five dimensions to boost the five-dimensional attributes he needed to unleash.

This is very similar to how Muneyoshi initially relied on his cheat ability, sacrificing some of his five dimensions under Tezuka's pressure, and then boosting the other five dimensions.

But regardless of the circumstances, Shiraishi is indeed making continuous progress at this moment.

"Shiraishi! Is this your tennis?!"

The moment the tennis ball bounced back after being hit back to Muneyoshi's half of the court by Shiraishi, Muneyoshi's figure had already appeared at the landing point of the ball.

A cool voice came from Muneyoshi's mouth, followed by a faint golden light. Muneyoshi stretched out his arm and suddenly swung it down, hitting the tennis ball.

The tennis ball created a ripple of air that bounced back!

Tap tap tap!

Shiraishi appeared at the net like a blur, his racket raised high above his head.

Faced with Muneyoshi's counterattack, Shiraishi Kuranosuke's eyes were filled with frost, and he suddenly slashed his racket down at the tennis ball!

The tennis ball, just over the net, comes into contact with the racket swinging down heavily, and the racket frame deforms instantly upon impact.

A beam of yellow light shot through Muneyoshi's half of the field and landed at his feet.

Under Muneyoshi's strange gaze, the tennis ball did not bounce, but rubbed violently against the ground.

Then twelve spherical shadows appeared, moving in a disc shape close to the ground.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The tennis ball stayed close to the ground and only came to a stop after its kinetic energy dissipated.

Round Table Strike!

"Shiraishi Kuranosuke scores 30:40."

"A very powerful Ground Illusion Ball."

Muneyoshi straightened up, glanced at Shiraishi who was incredibly restrained even in his excitement, and said calmly.

"I am truly honored to receive such praise from Saeki -san."

Upon hearing this, Shiraishi smiled and replied.

"Your evolution and fighting spirit certainly deserve everyone's recognition, but this match ends here!"

Muneyoshi's tone was calm, but the weight of his words made Shiraishi's heart sink.

"Shiraishi... your strength is your foundation, but my strengths aren't all foundational."

"Take a real taste of what it's like to face death!"

Muneyoshi, who originally planned to end the match with Basic Tennis, decided to reveal something after seeing Shiraishi's progress.

Swish!

Shiraishi was not intimidated by such words; on the contrary, he became even more excited. He looked up at Muneyoshi's location and tossed the tennis ball high into the air.

The next moment, he bent his body backward, quickly raised his left hand with the racket, twisted his wrist, and slammed the tennis ball down.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the tennis ball sped away, carrying a powerful gust of air.

"Very explosive, yet... useless!"

Muneyoshi's expression remained unchanged as he strode briskly to the spot where the tennis ball had landed.

"If you can't accept it, don't force yourself!"

After glancing at Shiraishi's serve, Muneyoshi's cold voice rang out, accompanied by a dazzling golden light shining in Shiraishi's eyes.

Swish!

A dazzling golden light, carrying a terrifying aura, emanated from Muneyoshi's loosely clenched left palm. Under the suppression of Muneyoshi's mental power, the constantly splashing light points gathered together, like a bright candle flame.

The light around Shiraishi seemed to have disappeared, and he found himself in a dark world.

The only thing that could be seen was the flickering candlelight in Muneyoshi's hand in the darkness.

The candlelight, like a beacon, dispels the darkness and guides the way forward.

However, as darkness enveloped everything, the candlelight shone ever brighter, and the darkness grew ever more intense.

An overwhelming sense of terror surged through Shiraishi, sending chills down his spine.

Muneyoshi swung his right hand, and his black and red racket swiftly struck the dazzling tennis ball.

In an instant!

A chilling sense of crisis erupted with the sudden burst of golden light, causing the surface of the dirt court to tremble slightly.

"... The tennis ball... is glowing?!"

"Candlelight Illumination!"

The mustard-yellow ball, enveloped in golden light, instantly and effortlessly destroyed the racket in Shiraishi's hand.

The immense power was only for a fleeting moment of contact; even though he unleashed Ishida Gin's Power in that instant, it still caused him excruciating pain in his wrist.

Boom!!

The power of the ball was not diminished by Shiraishi's obstruction. After smashing a deep crater in the muddy ground, it slammed into the iron net behind Shiraishi.

The net didn't hold for more than a few seconds; the tennis ball punched a hole in it and flew off somewhere unknown.

"This..."

Everyone present was deeply shocked. Even the Fudomine players, who had seen it before, were filled with fear at Muneyoshi's move.

Boom!

The smoke and dust on the field completely dissipated, and the fear of death that only Shiraishi could understand and feel also vanished along with the smoke and dust.

Thud...

The broken racket slipped from Shiraishi's hand and fell onto the court; it was clear that the racket face was completely gone.

"Match ended, Saeki Muneyoshi won, score 6-0."

"Muneyoshi, I've learned a lot from this match!"

Soon, Shiraishi suppressed the fear of death he had just felt, composed himself, and calmly extended his hand to Muneyoshi in front of him.

"Shiraishi, I look forward to your next evolution. What you've shown, in my opinion, has even greater potential!"

Muneyoshi also praised Shiraishi's performance, and then continued, "You've found your way in Basic Tennis. I hope to face you again next time as a completely new you."

Shiraishi was taken aback for a moment, then laughed heartily and said, "Yes, Muneyoshi! I look forward to seeing you on the field next time!"

They shook hands in friendship and returned to their respective groups.
