The Debt to Kirihara Is Yours to Pay
Upon hearing Fuji's words, Horio paused for a moment, then stopped his mental attack.
As Horio ceased his mental attack, Kirihara, who had been clutching his head and screaming in agony, also stopped screaming.
"What just happened? Why did Kirihara suddenly act like that?"
"What happened to Kirihara just now?"
"Why did a scream suddenly come out? Shouldn't it be Fuji Syusuke screaming?"
Those watching from the sidelines were utterly bewildered by what they had just witnessed.
"Horio, I'll handle this match myself."
Fuji struggled to his feet and spoke to Horio.
"No, I can't tolerate this happening."
"I know you hate it when people hurt others with tennis balls, but I'm the player in this match, so please let me handle it."
Hearing Fuji say that, Horio didn't insist any further.
"Seaweed Head, listen to me. You can do whatever you want, but in my match against your vice- Captain later, I'll make sure he takes all the blame."
Horio looked at Kirihara, who had just recovered from the pain, and calmly said these words.
Then Horio frowned again, his expression changing.
Kirihara, who had just started to Kirihara in pain again. Seeing this, Sanada, sitting on the Coach's bench, felt uneasy.
It only lasted a few seconds before Horio stopped torturing Kirihara.
Having been tormented twice in a row, Kirihara completely forgot Horio's words and let anger take over his heart.
Bang...
Rikkai Dai scores, 30:0
Rikkai Dai scores, 40:0
"Rikkai Dai scores, score 1-2"
In his red-eyed state, Kirihara constantly shifted Fuji's position from left to right.
This increases the burden on Fuji's knees, then allows the attacker to strike the same spot.
Fuji was under constant attack from Kirihara, and his knees were already under great pressure.
"To be honest, I really didn't expect you to last this long, but things won't be so easy from here on out."
Kirihara stared at Fuji, the tennis ball in his hand crumpled in his hand.
"Knuckle serve..."
"No, stop Kirihara."
Rikkai Dai saw Kirihara's gesture, they immediately tried to stop him, but Kirihara ignored them.
Toss the ball into the air and swing the racket to hit it.
After being squeezed and deformed, the trajectory of the tennis ball becomes unpredictable after being hit by the racket.
Thump...
The tennis ball's speed didn't decrease after bouncing, and Fuji couldn't react in time.
He was hit in the face by a tennis ball and fell to the ground.
"Fuji!"
The Seigaku members were very worried when they saw Fuji being defeated again.
As Kirihara went further and further astray, Horio's gaze grew increasingly cold.
"It won't be fun if you give up so quickly."
Looking at Fuji's Kirihara, this time he didn't hit a knuckle serve, but an Outer Spin Serve.
"Damn it, they actually resorted to such tricks."
"A game that could have been scored immediately has dragged on for so long."
"That Kirihara clearly wants to torture Fuji."
People from various universities outside the venue saw through Kirihara's tricks and felt disgusted by his behavior.
Rikkai Dai scores, 15:0
Rikkai Dai scores, 30:0
"Rikkai Dai scores, score 3-2"
"Fuji- Senpai, if you don't retaliate soon, I'm afraid I'll have to go back on my word."
Horio, who was barely able to contain himself, looked at Fuji again, Fuji was startled by Horio's words.
"I was just about to do that, even without you saying so."
After giving Horio a serious answer, Fuji picked up his racket again and went back onto the court.
"Kirihara, I thought you would give up, that one day you would stop doing this, but I was wrong."
Fuji looked at the violent Kirihara, his eyes now serious and terrifying.
In contrast, Kirihara seemed completely unconcerned upon hearing Fuji's words.
After holding serve, he hit a knuckle serve again.
Unlike before, Fuji Erque was not passive and directly returned the serve with his knuckles.
Bang...
"Seigaku score, 15:0"
"Seigaku score, 30:0"
"Seigaku's score: 40-0"
"Seigaku scores, score tied 3-3"
"Damn it, what's going on? That Fuji Syusuke..."
At the start of the seventh game, Fuji broke Kirihara's serve and stood on the baseline.
The tennis ball in his hand was suddenly squeezed out of shape, Fuji even managed to hit a serve with his knuckles.
Call out...
The rebounding tennis ball passed right by Kirihara's ear, startling him from the Kirihara shot.
"Knuckle serve!"
"That Fuji, did he really learn it just by watching?"
When Rikkai Dai saw Fuji hit a serve with his knuckles, they were all amazed by Fuji's talent.
Bang...
"Seigaku score, 15:0"
"Seigaku score, 30:0"
"Seigaku scores, score 4:3"
Fuji's counterattack has already diminished Kirihara's initial arrogance.
It could even be said that Kirihara felt fear, because this fear arose during a play against Fuji.
Kirihara was afraid of the ball Fuji was hitting, so he took a few steps back, and then the ball hit Kirihara's knee directly.
When this happened, Kirihara's fear turned into terror.
He couldn't help but think of the people he had hurt in this way, and he was afraid that he would be treated the Fuji way by Fuji.
Bang...
"Seigaku scores, score 5-3"
"Seigaku score, 15:0"
Bang...
"Seigaku scores, score 6-3, Seigaku wins."
After Kirihara was terrified by Fuji, he never recovered his former strength.
Facing Kirihara who had lost confidence, Fuji easily won the match.
"Akaya, have you seen your limits? Limits are meant to be surpassed. Now it's up to you."
Seeing Kirihara kneeling on the ground, Sanada walked over and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him, but Kirihara, despite being comforted, did not recover so quickly.
"Stop talking nonsense and worry about yourself first, Seaweed Head. Get off the court now. What are you doing still on the field after losing the game?"
At this moment, Horio also entered the arena. Upon hearing what Sanada said to Kirihara, an angry Horio immediately scoffed.
"Thank you for your hard work, Fuji- Senpai. You can go and rest now. It's my turn to collect the debts for you next."
Seeing Fuji covered in wounds, Horio quickly told him to go and treat his wounds, then turned to look at Sanada again.
"Yukimura probably needs surgery, so you'll Kirihara back the debt he owed. I hope you can hold on."
After saying that, he helped Fuji to the sidelines.
"The bones should be fine, but just to be on the safe side, it's best to go to the hospital."
After examining Fuji's knee, Fuji still advised Oishi Fuji go to the hospital.
"I will go, but I'll go after the competition."
"Then, to get you to the hospital quickly, I need to finish the match quickly."
"Next up is the First Singles match. Players, please come to the court."
"I'll make sure the match ends quickly. Didn't you want to go to the hospital to see Yukimura as soon as possible? Well, we also have someone here who needs to go to the hospital quickly."
"The championship will definitely go to Rikkai Dai, it definitely will!"
Horio put a lot of pressure on Sanada, but remembering his promise to Yukimura, he had to bear it no matter how much pressure he was under.
