Haidang Fights Back

"Kaitou has Demonization, just like Kirihara."

"It must have been the various pressures that triggered his repressed nature to erupt."

"I remember Horio once said, could this be the realm he and Kaitou were talking about?"

Gan's words drew everyone's attention to Horio nodded.

"I didn't expect him to Demonization in this situation, and the level of mastery he showed was even more mature than Kirihara had previously demonstrated."

I think it's because of his long-term physical training that he's more mature in terms of mental fortitude, which is why, even though it's only his first time Demonization, he's more mature than Kirihara."

After carefully observing the Demonization Kaitou, Horio was quite satisfied with his Demonization.

In terms of Demonization alone, Kaitou is superior to Kirihara at this point.

Kirihara is also the next Vice President of Rikkai Dai, so in terms of upper-level combat strength, Seigaku is superior.

I'm going to crush you.

On the field, the Demonization Kaitou didn't laugh like Kirihara Demonization; instead, he was calm to the point of being gloomy.

Hearing the chill in Kaitou's tone, Sanada finally became cautious.

After reaching the baseline, Sanada unleashed a swing that was barely visible.

But this time, Kaitou did not give up easily, even though Sanada's swing speed was still very fast.

But suddenly Kaitou moved and swung her racket into the air.

Then the sound of the ball being hit was heard; the tennis ball had been successfully struck.

Swift as the wind!

Although his unseen swing was broken, Sanada did not give up and launched another wind-based counterattack.

However, with even his serve being countered, Feng's return was even more difficult. Kaitou moved a few steps and swung his racket to return the ball.

Sanada's counterattack with wind was countered again, and seeing this, Yama was activated.

Sanada defended like a mountain, blocking Kaitou's counterattack.

"Sanada's wind has been broken; that Demonization of the next Seigaku Captain is quite impressive."

"Moreover, he remained conscious and did not deliberately suppress his Demonization power."

"It seems that Kaitou's Demonization has matured further. What do you think, Akaya?"

The outbreak of the Kaitou made Rikkai Dai realize that Demonization could be controlled.

Marui took a few steps forward, hooked his arm around Kirihara's shoulder, and said to Kirihara in a teasing tone.

Kirihara ignored Marui and stared intently at Kaitou on the field.

On the court, Sanada, who had been Immovable as a Mountain, gradually became overwhelmed by Kaitou's various counterattacks.

As Kaitou unleashed a powerful, Spinning Snake Shot, Sanada's mountain-like momentum crumbled, forcing him to resort to a net shot.

Kaitou seized the opportunity to rush to the net and took a short run-up before jumping slightly.

Sanada thought he was going to hit a smash, but the reality was beyond his expectations.

Kaitou unexpectedly launched a snake ball after jumping up, her arm drawing an arc in the air. The faster snake ball bypassed Sanada and went straight behind him.

Bang!

"Seigaku Kaitou scores, 15:0"

"Great! Kaitou scored!"

"To be able to launch a snake ball in mid-air, the power of the Demonization is truly incredible."

He flipped through his notebook, looking at Kaitou's previous materials, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"Both the wind and the mountain have been broken, Sanada. This is the consequence of your delaying the game. To go to such lengths just because of your opponent's request is truly disappointing."

On the Coach's bench, Yukimura's smile vanished, replaced by a hint of disappointment in his calm expression.

Bang!

"Seigaku Kaitou scores, score 1:4"

On the court, Kaitou hit a wavy Spinning Snake Shot, finally winning a game against Sanada.

At this moment, both players on the field had visible beads of sweat on their faces, and Kaitou was even visibly panting.

"Demonization Akaya's... Is this why Tezuka values you?"

Sanada frowned slightly, because the Demonization Kaitou was more than twice as strong as she had been in the previous match.

This was completely different from his experience when testing Kirihara, so he was caught off guard.

At the start of the sixth round, Kaitou's eyes looked somewhat terrifying, especially against the backdrop of his white hair.

Kaitou gently exhaled, and the tennis ball was hit by him.

With the added boost from his special condition, even his serves became much more powerful.

Sanada no longer underestimated Kaitou and focused his attention on returning the ball.

After Sanada successfully returned the ball, Kaitou on the opposite side had already assumed his stance.

It's Fuji Phoenix's Return to Nest, except the positions of his feet are reversed.

The tennis ball sliced through the air and arrived in front of Kaitou. Kaitou swung her racket to her left front, with a certain arc.

Then I saw the tennis ball spinning in the air, moving forward in a spiral.

As the tennis ball got closer to Sanada, the diameter of the spin increased.

Moreover, the speed increased rapidly, and the tennis ball had already landed before Sanada could even discern its trajectory.

Bang...

"Seigaku Kaitou scores, 15:0"

"This is a ball I've never seen before! Kaitou has learned a new snake ball!"

"She actually countered with a spiral motion, and the speed increased as the spiral's range expanded. It must have been incredibly difficult for Kaitou to master this move."

"This move caught Sanada completely off guard; it seems it can be used as a scoring method in the short term."

Kaitou's previously unseen move proved remarkably effective, even earning Fuji's approval.

"This is a move I've never used before, the Tornado Snake Shot, which I prepared for the finals."

"Tornado Snake Shot! That Seigaku actually hit that kind of shot!"

"How did he come up with the idea of a ball that spins in the air?"

"To hit that shot, you need not only long arms, but also a flexible wrist."

Seeing the somewhat surprised look in Sanada's eyes, Kaitou had scored a point in the counterattack, named the move.

Hearing what Kaitou said, the expressions of the Rikkai Dai the stadium also changed, especially after hearing Liu, the strategist, describe the difficulty of the Tornado Snake Shot.

"However, Sanada won't let Kaitou keep scoring like that. That Tornado Snake Shot is only temporarily difficult for Sanada to handle."

"That's right. The Tornado Snake Shot is powerful, but that's only because it's enhanced by Kaitou's Demonization. Besides, this level of skill doesn't pose much of a threat to Genichiro."

Although the appearance of the Tornado Snake Shot surprised everyone, Niou and Yanagi, who knew Sanada better, were not particularly worried among the Rikkai Dai.

Bang...

"Seigaku Kaitou scores, 30:0"

Bang...

"Seigaku Kaitou scores, 40:0"

With two consecutive Tornado Snake Shot, Kaitou brought the sixth game to his match point.

"Your move was indeed quite good. The speed increases as the tennis ball travels, eventually causing the opponent to lose sight of it and lose points."

But after practicing many times, you'll be able to see its trajectory clearly, and you won't score on the next ball.
