Boxing and Tennis

Sengoku's latest style of serve surprised everyone, and Momoshiro was also astonished by Sengoku's change.

"Damn it, I don't know what happened, but when it comes to strength, I won't lose to you."

Seeing Sengoku serve again, Momoshiro successfully hit the ball this time.

But the ball, which was thought to be a perfect return, flew straight out of bounds.

"Sengoku scores, 40:0"

"That ball... didn't turn..."

"What's the meaning..."

"Due to the normal serve or return, the trajectory of the tennis ball will change due to air resistance during its flight."

However, Sengoku's serve just now flew straight towards Momoshiro's half of the court.

"To achieve that level, the swing angle, the ball's spin, and the contact area with the air all need to be met."

"Furthermore, when swinging the racket, you must compress the power in an instant and then unleash it all upon contact with the tennis ball."

"So that ball actually felt heavier than it looked when we hit it."

As a power-type player, Feng understood the difficulty of hitting this type of ball, and the others, after listening to Feng's explanation, also understood the techniques involved.

Having reached game point, Sengoku serves again.

Having learned about Sengoku's serve from the previous point, Momoshiro this time used a two-handed backhand to successfully return the ball.

"Momoshiro scores, 15:40"

Momoshiro quickly adapted to Sengoku's serves, much to Sengoku's surprise.

"You're really impressive. You've improved quite a bit since the Tokyo Metropolitan Tournament, Momoshiro."

"Hmph, you're not the only one practicing."

Despite Sengoku's change, Momoshiro still wore his signature smile.

"Sengoku scores, score 1-0"

"Momoshiro scores, 15:0"

"Momoshiro's score: 40:30"

"Momoshiro scores, score 1-1"

Bang...

"Sengoku scored..."

"Momoshiro scores..."

"Sengoku scores, score 3-2"

"These two are really formidable; they haven't lost their serve yet."

"However, even so, the match time for each game is too short."

"Indeed, each round only took about three minutes from start to finish."

On the court, the two players remained neck and neck, with the score constantly fluctuating and alternating.

"Hey Chotaro, look."

"What's wrong, Mukahi Senpai?"

Meido had been watching the game from the sidelines, suddenly noticed something and quickly alerted Ootori, who was standing next to her.

"Compared to Momoshiro, Sengoku didn't even break a sweat."

After being reminded by Meido, Feng also noticed the problem.

"Compared to Momoshiro's major moves, Sengoku is only maintaining a minimal counterattack."

Bang...

"Momoshiro scores, score 3-3"

"They've only played six games, and they're already sweating this much. It seems Sengoku has really changed a lot lately. But Momoshiro must have been slacking off a bit."

Seeing that the score was tied again, neither of the two players on the field seemed to be injured.

One of them was already drenched in sweat, Horio immediately saw the contrast in their minds.

"Brother Momoshiro, you're going a bit too far."

Looking at Momoshiro, who was drenched in sweat, Sengoku's face broke into a meaningful smile.

"That's right, Sengoku- Senpai, keep it up."

Dan Taichi, standing off the field, kept switching between the court and the timer, recording the time of each game.

"You should be starting to feel it now, Momoshiro. Your strength is almost exhausted."

Sitting on the referee's bench, Horio watched the changes in Momoshiro's muscles.

Meanwhile, Momoshiro also felt that the ball Sengoku was hitting was getting heavier and heavier.

"I feel like I've seen Sengoku's moves somewhere before, they're so familiar."

Kikumaru, watching from the sidelines, noticed the change in Sengoku's movements; they seemed familiar, yet he couldn't quite place them.

Horio responded to Kikumaru's words.

"It's boxing. From the swing of the racket to the jumping footwork, even the length of each round is exactly the same as a boxing match."

"That's right, Sengoku- Senpai hasn't played tennis for over a month; he's been boxing instead."

Horio's words were endorsed by Dan Taichi, the manager of Yamabuki Tennis.

Bang...

"Sengoku scores, 15:0"

"How about it, Momoshiro? I can't wait for you to see these achievements. I'm not the same person I used to be."

No matter how good you are, I will never admit defeat.

Sengoku's changes did put pressure on Momoshiro, but the naturally simple-minded Momoshiro wouldn't back down because of that.

Faced with Sengoku 'Boxing Style tennis, Momoshiro finally unleashed his own Center of Gravity Vertical Jump Style.

Bang...

"Sengoku scores, 30:0"

However, it had little effect, and Sengoku still managed to defeat them.

"Oh no, Momoshiro- Senpai's Center of Gravity Vertical Jump Style is no longer effective against Sengoku."

Ryoma, who is close to Momoshiro, also started to worry about him off the Momoshiro.

After the Kanto Tournament, Sengoku- Senpai left the tennis club in order to reinvent his tennis and chose boxing to thoroughly train his body and mind.

Then Senpai, during this process, Sengoku finally found an opportunity to change his tennis style, which became the Boxing Style.

Seeing everyone's surprise at Sengoku's transformation, Dan Taichi, as one of the few who knew the truth, felt proud.

"Sengoku's swing speed is getting faster and faster."

"It's almost impossible to see how the ball was hit back."

"This really feels like boxing."

Off the field, after learning about Sengoku's change.

Everyone was increasingly surprised by Sengoku's performance on the field.

"Damn it, even at game point they didn't use the Tiger Cannon? Oh, I see."

"Since that's the case, then I'll defeat you in my own way."

Momoshiro, who was gradually being suppressed, decided to launch a counterattack.

After Sengoku's serve, the Center of Gravity Vertical Jump Style reappeared.

Unlike before, this time the effort has been intensified.

Faced with this situation, Sengoku could only barely catch up with the tennis ball, resulting in a Lob Shot serve.

The ball flew towards the sky from the net, and suddenly a figure jumped out, followed by a smash.

Bang...

"Momoshiro scores, 15:30"

"He actually managed to carve out a path to survival using his already cracked Center of Gravity Vertical Jump Style, and even followed up with Smash Shot. He truly deserves to be called Seigaku's number one monster."

Kajimoto, watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but be amazed by Momoshiro's goal.

"Momoshiro, you're not bad, but you don't have a chance to score."

Despite conceding a point, Sengoku didn't seem bothered and served again.

Momoshiro's stamina was clearly insufficient to maintain the same level of play, so he began to be moved around by Sengoku.
