Synchronization and the True Execution Method
Such enhanced eyesight and mental fortitude certainly put some pressure on the two Greece Team. 💢♣ 🐺👍
However, they did not collapse and managed to hold on.
However, as Apollo continued to serve, the situation changed.
The tennis ball had just landed when a golden beam of light flashed past their eyes, then passed by their feet and flew off the court.
"What!!!"
The two Greece Team brothers turned their heads and saw a black mark on the baseline still emitting wisps of smoke.
Meanwhile, in the corner outside the court, a mustard-yellow tennis ball rested quietly.
"Japan's score: 15-30."
They actually scored by returning the ball directly!
Their reaction at this moment was on a completely different level compared to before.
"Watch out, little brother, show me your true strength!"
Apollo in the backcourt frowned and glanced again at the Mutsu Brothers, who were in Synchronization.
"As expected of Synchronization; simply activating it has brought about a dramatic change in their strength..."
Apollo and Orion knew very well that if they didn't show their strength, judging from their performance just now, things would likely be difficult.
Subsequently, both sides began a tit-for-tat exchange.
Bang!
Bang!
The four players on the field were constantly entangled, but it was clear to everyone that after the Synchronization was activated, the scales of victory were already tipping in favor of the Mutsu Brothers of the Japan Team.
"The Mutsu Brothers have made great progress!"
Beside Byōdōin, Muneyoshi said with a touch of emotion.
It's important to know that in the beginning, the Mutsu Brothers weren't even qualified to join the First String. It was Muneyoshi who led them on expeditions to accumulate some competition experience and strength.
I never imagined that after just over a year in Europe, I would be able to achieve this.
"Hmph, growth is to be expected. The constant failures in this competitive environment have made them see their shortcomings clearly. Now they're a little better!"
Byōdōin doesn't often encourage his team members; saying the opponent's strength is passable is already considered a compliment.
However, in Muneyoshi's opinion, the Mutsu Brothers do indeed deserve such praise, although they may not be on par with other top doubles teams.
But they have truly become a world-class doubles pair!
A milky-white aura surrounded him, and his pale golden pupils resembled those of a deity.
The ability to Synchronization and resonate can only be truly demonstrated in doubles.
The Mutsu Brothers also perfectly demonstrated to the audience what true doubles is all about!
In the world of tennis doubles, synchronized resonance is a very important threshold and a basic requirement for doubles to go global.
Once Synchronization is achieved, doubles strength will improve dramatically.
Unless the opponent's doubles strength is overwhelming, only Synchronization pairs can defeat Synchronization.
This is a truth that has always been prevalent in the world of doubles tennis.
However, it seems that the two Greece Team players won't be able to dominate in this match.
Then the victory will belong to the Mutsu Brothers.
Bang!
"Game, the first set was won by the Japan team, score 6:2."
After the initial burst of energy, the two Greece Team brothers didn't pose much of a problem for the Mutsu Brothers, who easily won the first set.
"These two Japan Team twins completely overwhelmed the Stefanopoulos Brothers!"
"A truly outstanding duo has emerged from the Japan Team!"
On the high platform, QP also expressed his appreciation for the Mutsu Brothers.
Especially when you see the Mutsu Brothers maintaining perfect Synchronization even during breaks between matches.
This rigorous attitude is very much in line with the style and principles of Germany.
After a short break, the game continued.
"Haa!"
With a Mutsu Yūho, angry shout, Mutsu's racket stirred up a cloud of energy, once again enveloping the bouncing tennis ball. ♨🐚 🐝♗
The Greece Team's return tennis shots were becoming increasingly powerful, but fortunately, the Mutsu Brothers were in Synchronization, and all their statistics improved.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to catch that ball on their own.
Bang!
With a heavy thud, the tennis ball struck like a meteor hammer, the mustard-yellow ball, having unleashed all its power in the return shot, surged directly towards Apollo, who was standing in the front row.
Bang... hiss!
Snap!
Apollo gripped his racket with both hands, gritting his teeth as he returned the shot. However, the moment the tennis ball landed in the net, he felt an immense pressure.
If the Mutsu Brothers weren't not power-type fighters, they would probably have been knocked flying by anyone else.
However, holding on wasn't enough; after only a few seconds, the racket was knocked away.
"Game! Japan scores, score 4-2."
With a smile on his face, Mutsu Yūma walked towards Mutsu Yūho, and the two lightly gave each other a high five.
"Brother, well done!"
"The game isn't over yet; we can't let our guard down until the very last moment."
As the older brother, Mutsu Yūho remained relatively calm.
However, at this moment, most of the Japan Team members, including the Mutsu Brothers in the match, did not notice the triumphant smile on the faces of the twin brothers on the other side.
"It seems all the rituals before the execution have been completed, huh? The last descendant of the Stefanopoulos family."
Zeus stood on the sidelines with his arms crossed, showing no sign of panic even though he and his brother were at a significant disadvantage.
As the doubles pair he personally discovered, Zeus was well aware that in this match, they seemed to be completely suppressed by the Japan Team's Synchronization pair.
However, he knew very well that as a famous executioner in Europe, there was a long series of rituals before the execution.
Once these steps are completed, the final tone of the match will be set.
The initial suppression was merely a sacrifice by the Stefanopoulos Brothers to accomplish all of this.
Just as Zeus had predicted, when the two brothers stepped onto the field again...
A faint white light enveloped the two of them, and the same pace and movements appeared on their bodies.
"Ha, it really happened! Initial Ability Resonance!"
"Is this ability that the rituals the two brothers performed helped them acquire...?"
Although the changes in the two brothers were very subtle, they could not escape the powerful spiritual perception of Zeus, nor could they escape the notice of Saeki Muneyoshi and Byōdōin.
"Those two guys from the Greece Team..."
"Snort!!"
Possession was changed, and everything returned to Apollo's hands.
Apollo and Orion nodded to each other, the excitement hidden deep in their eyes now impossible to conceal.
As middle school students discovered by Zeus, this is their first official match, and they desperately need a victory to announce their return to the world.
Bang!
Apollo took the first shot.
The tennis ball traced a straight vertical line through the air, like a cut made by a blade, and landed directly in the angle where Mutsu Yūma was receiving the serve.
"So fast!"
Upon seeing this ball, even with his mindset in Synchronization with the opponent, Mutsu Yūma was startled, and then he looked up at the other side.
A vast and bloody execution ground appeared before him, with endless blood staining all sorts of torture instruments.
"What's this!"
At this moment, the Stefanopoulos brothers were no longer peaceful; they looked like vicious executioners.
However, Mutsu Yūma was still in Synchronization mode, and he suppressed his emotions, steadily retaliating.
Bang!
The tennis ball had just flown back when their keen senses alerted them to the start of a counterattack from the opposing team.
"Younger brother!"
With a clear shout, Mutsu Yūho was half-crouched in the front field, instantly understood his meaning.
However, their reaction was too slow. A sharp gust of wind swept past their ears and struck Mutsu Yūho's backhand and foot.
This was a dangerous, tricky, and malicious follow-up shot.
Mutsu Yūho's reaction was quick; he moved his left foot half a step back, twisted his body using his toes as a pivot, and then pulled back forcefully!
He flicked the tennis ball with a beautiful sidespin arc, barely managing to return it over the net.
However, an ancient sound came from the mouth of Orion, who had long, curly hair. He leaped high into the air and then slammed the ball down.
"Ancient Greece Execution Method No. 913 - The Wishing Cutting Disc!"
"Careful!!!"
The tennis ball, like a sharp, cold axe, sliced across the court and smashed straight at Mutsu Yūho's half-bent knee.
"Bang..."
A sharp, tight sound of flesh being pressed against flesh rang out, and in an instant, the intense pain jolted Mutsu Yūho out of her Synchronization state.
His knee felt as if it had been struck by a sharp drill, and the excruciating pain surged directly to his cerebral cortex.
This shot made him truly feel the cruelty of punishment; the real executioner began to fight back.
"Greece -style Execution Method No. 353: Strangulation in a dish!"
"Greece -style Execution Method #564: Black Panther's Fury!"
"Greece -style Execution Method code 614: The Bronze Bull of Peril!"
"Greece -style Execution Method #427: Flying kites on Mondays!"
Bang!
The tennis ball, trailing a streak of crimson, was tossed high into the sky.
Meanwhile, in the Japan Team's half, the Mutsu Brothers were completely unable to stand up.
Seeing the two players bleeding on the field, the Japanese Japan Team fell silent.
Muneyoshi, his face grim, called forfeit. The crowd then lifted the Mutsu Brothers off the field and arranged for medical personnel to bandage them.
The Japan Team lost the first match.
