The Counterattack Begins

Hearing that Keith wanted to continue, Lin Xiu stepped forward once again.

"Our tennis... Have you forgotten how those people treated us back then?"

It was clearly the fault of those nobles, but in the end, just because I had no background, they shifted all the blame onto me.

I was the only one whose playing style was considered problematic, and I was also the only one who was expelled from the tennis club afterward.

No matter where I went, no one was willing to accept me. From that match onwards, I was the only one expelled from the tennis world!

This is the fate of what you call "our tennis"! Even if you're expelled along with me, it won't change this fact!

Upon hearing "our tennis," Keith suddenly became emotional.

"From that moment on, I was already falling, the kind of falling that I couldn't float up."

"If you want to float, then float. Don't bother me with your utterly pointless ideas."

"Then why didn't you give up tennis! What was your original intention in forming Clark?"

What you wanted to do by founding Clark was clearly...

I've forgotten about that.

After the initial excitement subsided, Keith reverted to his previous indifferent demeanor when faced with Lin Xiu's barrage of questions.

"You fell into depravity to protect me... I can't bear to leave you alone..."

I initially thought that my falling into depravity with you was for your own good, but it turns out I was wrong, Keith. Let's start over.

"Start over what? Is there anything that can be started over?"

Lin Xiu did not give up trying to persuade Keith, but Keith seemed to have already made up his mind.

At this point, Horio, who had been watching the scene unfold, could no longer contain himself and interrupted their conversation.

"Wait a minute, the game isn't over yet."

If you're going to argue or have a fight, wait until I'm done fighting before you continue.

"You brat, you really never learn."

Horio didn't say anything more and directly served a ball.

And Keith delivered on his promise, unleashing the full version of Universal Gravitation.

"I must say, your use of Qi is truly excellent. I think I've learned something useful, so now it's my turn to retaliate."

Looking at the energy cloud about to erupt above him, Horio released his Genesis Aura.

The blue gas, drawn by Universal Gravitation, poured down towards Horio, but a purple aura forcefully tore open a slit.

That force had absolutely no effect on Horio then swung his racket and caught the falling tennis ball.

"I have a move similar to your Universal Gravitation, but instead of applying pressure to people, it applies pressure to balls."

Having said that, Horio pushed his racket forward and hit Weak Water.

"Hmph, bluffing. I didn't expect you to catch even my strongest shot, but how long can you keep it up?"

The Weak Water was no different from a regular ball before it was hit by the racket, so Keith didn't pay much attention to it.

With a skeptical attitude, the blue aura reappeared on Keith's racket.

The tennis ball bounced off the ground, Keith swung his racket.

The moment the ball hits, energy is instantly added to it, and at the same time, a purple light bursts forth from the tennis ball.

A beam of purple light pierced through the tennis ball enveloped in gas.

Then, as the distance increased, the tennis ball suddenly dropped.

Finally, it landed a meter in front of Keith, and the force of Universal Gravitation erupted at that moment.

The sudden burst of force rushed directly towards Keith, creating a crater within a half-meter radius of the tennis ball's landing point.

The ground caved in, and Keith was sent flying backward off the field.

"It could easily turn into a fight to the death. It seems that if we don't take some action, we'll only be slaughtered."

"That's right, it's time to start fighting back."

Outside the castle gates, Fuji and Kite had already figured out the tactics of the two people opposite them.

"Don't shoot when they pass the ball to you."

"Oh? It seems you already have a plan."

What are you two chattering about over there?!

While Fuji and Kite were exchanging shots, the two players opposite them served again.

Kite did not make a move after hearing Fuji's words.

Fuji swung his racket and used the Mayfly Encirclement.

After catching the ball opposite him, he turned around and caught the ball opposite the Kite, and then hit it at the burly man at the same time.

"What!? He caught both balls!"

The burly man then returned both balls simultaneously, and the man with the mohawk on the other side sensed something was wrong.

"Idiot! Why did you hit both balls back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fuji and Kite each took charge of one ball.

"Stellar Fireworks!"

"Big Bang!"

The two players each displayed their signature skills, and the muscular man's attention was drawn to Stellar Fireworks.

Then the Big Bang hit him directly beneath his feet, the immense force shattering the wooden floor beneath him.

After the burly man let out a scream, he fell into the river below the bridge.

"See? It's definitely better to be together."

I agree with you.

Looking at the spot where the burly man had fallen, the two men chuckled simultaneously, then turned to look at the mohawk-haired man behind them, who was now trembling with fear.

With the situation having reached this point, the battle between Fuji and Kite has already been decided.

On Sanada's Kirihara, Sanada continued to attack the iron gate, causing his stamina to be rapidly depleted.

"Vice President! Aren't we partners? In that case, let me do it..."

"It's ready."

Kirihara ran to Sanada's side, and in response to Kirihara's question again, Sanada stood up and looked at the iron gate that stood in the center of the field.

"The rest is up to you. Give them a good lesson."

Sanada stood up and spoke to Kirihara, his tone completely different from before.

At that moment, the man in the hat on the opposite side served again, Sanada ran forward with all his might.

"Can't you guys just serve normally?!"

With a roar from Sanada, the tennis ball was returned and hit the iron gate once again.

But this time the iron gate failed to stop Sanada's return shot; instead, it fell downwards with the impact of the tennis ball.

The iron gate collapsed, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The man in the hat and the red-haired man on the opposite side stared in disbelief at the fallen iron gate. When the dust settled, there were no more obstacles in the center of the field.

"Could it be... that guy's initial goal was..."

"It's your turn, Akaya."

While the two people opposite were still in shock, Sanada had already turned to look at Kirihara.

Meanwhile, Kirihara, facing the person who had attacked him before, had also begun to Demonization.

His ruddy skin, white hair, and dark green eyes sent chills down the spines of the two people opposite him.

"You bastards, how dare you attack me in such a despicable way! I'll make you pay in blood!"

After activating his Demonization, Kirihara unleashed his full power, leaving the two opponents completely defenseless.
