Chapter 887: Doubles Duel
This change of direction was completely unexpected and caught him off guard.
This sudden change not only surprised Alexander Gerard, but also made the other players of the German team look surprised.
Especially Fuji, he has a very deep understanding of tennis techniques and naturally knows that large changes of direction and rotation are difficult to use in serving.
The Jackal Kuwahara once tried to hit this kind of serve with a large change of direction and spin, but the results were not satisfactory.
The ball simply cannot withstand such strong rotation and often gets out of control before it even flies over the net.
Compared with the non-rebounding effect of the Zero serve, it is a world of difference.
However, this time, the Jackal Kuwabara successfully completed a large change of direction after the second rotation. How could this not be surprising?
"This guy, Jackal Kuwahara, always does things that shock people."
Bismarck, who was standing aside, had a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he admired the performance of the Jackal Kuwahara.
Bang! With a crisp sound, the tennis ball flew past like lightning, drawing a perfect arc in the air. Swish, swish, swish! The tennis ball spun at high speed on the racket, as if it was given life, dazzling the eyes.
Alexander Gerard, standing on the court, stared at the tennis ball, with a look of helplessness on his face. Although he tried his best to swing the racket, he still couldn't grasp the timing accurately and hit the tennis ball back.
Finally, the tennis ball slid along the edge of the racket like a naughty child and fell straight to the ground.
"Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara score, the score is 15:0!" The referee blew the whistle without hesitation, announcing the winner of this round.
There was a sudden cry of surprise in the stadium, and the audience was shocked by the wonderful serve of Jackal Kuwahara.
“Wow, that’s amazing!”
"This kind of large change of direction is simply incredible!"
"Even serving can produce such an effect, the Jackal Kuwahara is really amazing!"
People were amazed and praised Jackal Kuwahara's skills.
However, at the same time, the audience in the stands began to question Alexander Gerard's performance.
"What happened in that game just now? It felt like he was just a bystander the whole time, like a living dead."
"Yeah, I didn't perform to the level I should have."
"If this continues, Alexander Gerard might become the biggest breakthrough point in this game."
The audience was talking one after another, and Alexander Gerard's face became more and more ugly.
He looked at the tennis ball rolling to the ground helplessly, his heart full of regret and self-blame.
"Don't worry, Alexander Gerard, just keep looking for opportunities to return the ball. There's still plenty of time. I will make sure that my opponent doesn't take my serve!"
Johnny Gerard patted Alexander Gerard's shoulder gently with a smile that made him feel extremely reassured.
Just then, bang! bang! bang!
Jackal Kuwahara swung his racket again and served three balls in a row.
The power of these three serves is still amazing, and each ball has a strong and large change of direction and spin.
Faced with such a serve, Alexander Gerard has tried many times, but has never been able to make a normal return.
You know, a large change of direction and rotation is difficult to deal with in itself, and under the control of the Jackal Kuwabara, the amplitude of this rotation change is increased a lot, which makes it even more difficult for Alexander Gerard to grasp the flight trajectory of the ball.
"Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara scored, the score is 15:0!"
The referee's voice rang out on the court.
Immediately afterwards, Jackal Kuwahara served out his fourth ball, which was also a ball with a large change of direction and rotation.
Alexander Gerard tried his best to catch the ball, but he couldn't return it accurately.
"Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara scored, the score is 30:0!"
"Bunta Marui and Jackal Kuwahara scored, the score is 40:0!"
Winning the game
The Jackal Kuwahara scored on all four of his serves. Such a strong serving ability put Alexander Gerard in great trouble.
"This technique is really too shameless. Not to mention Alexander Gerard, even if I were standing on the field, I would find it difficult to fight back!"
someone exclaimed.
"Yeah, I never thought that a large change of direction and rotation could be used in serving. This is really unexpected!"
Another person echoed.
"From the current situation, Senior Johnny Gerard must hold on to his serve, otherwise the situation will be unfavorable to us."
Someone said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I believe they can win this game. Have you forgotten how Senior Johnny Gerard scored in the second game?"
Someone comforted.
"Yes, the sun is shining brightly now, which is an advantage for us!"
The Turkish players did not seem to take the loss of points to heart and instead looked very relaxed.
In the second game, Johnny Gerard’s strong performance gave them a lot of confidence and peace of mind.
"I didn't expect that Jackal Kuwahara could develop this skill to such a high level of perfection. It's really admirable!"
Alfonso Solon couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"But don't worry, Alexander Gerard has already begun to figure out the pattern."
Ivan showed a faint smile on his face, and seemed to be full of confidence in the situation.
Sure enough, just as Ivan said, Alexander Gerard gradually sensed something was going on.
In the fourth game, it was Alexander Gerard's turn to serve.
boom!
boom!
boom!
The crisp sound of the tennis racket hitting the ground seemed to be the prelude to the game, foreshadowing that a fierce confrontation was about to begin.
Alexander Gerard took a deep breath and adjusted himself.
His eyes were fixed on the tennis ball in his hand, as if it was his whole world.
He threw the ball gently into the sky, and the ball shone with golden light in the sunlight, just like the fighting spirit burning in his heart.
As the ball rose, Alexander Gerard swung his racket violently, using all his strength to hit a wide outside corner serve.
The ball whizzed past like lightning, with powerful rotation and impact, heading straight for the jackal Kuwabara on the opposite side.
Seeing this, the jackal Sang Yuan did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.
He ran quickly like an agile cheetah, and decisively hit a cutting, large-direction, spinning ball at the moment the ball bounced.
The ball drew a strange arc in the air, making it difficult to predict where it was going.
However, before the ball flew over the net, Johnny Gerard swung his racket like lightning.
His movements were quick and decisive, and he was not affected at all by the spin on the ball.
At the same time, Alexander Gerard at the baseline also entered a special psychological state.
His pupils lost focus, as if he had entered a world that belonged only to him.
In this world, he and Johnny Gerard developed a wonderful resonance, which greatly enhanced his abilities.
"Trouble!"
Jackal Sangyuan secretly thought that something was wrong. He realized that Johnny Gerard in this state had reached the level of a top player. He was not sure whether his large change of direction and spinning ball could have any effect on Johnny Gerard.
"Bunta, be careful!"
The jackal Sangyuan reminded quickly.
Wen Tai nodded, but he did not run to the backcourt to catch the ball as usual because it was too late.
He quickly retreated to the serving line, racket in hand, ready for action.
"drink!"
With a roar, Johnny Gerard, like a ferocious beast, suddenly exerted his strength and hit the ball in his hand hard into the sky.
In an instant, the ball burst into dazzling light like a lit firework and rushed straight into the sky.
However, this seemingly powerful blow did not fully achieve the desired effect.
Although the ball produced a sharp change of direction and rotation for a moment on Johnny Gerard's racket, this change only lasted for a very short time. Then the ball rushed straight into the sky like a cannonball out of control, as if it was going to break through the clouds.
"Sunshine lob!"
Johnny Gerard's opponent Sang Yuan saw this and couldn't help but snorted, "Huh, Johnny Gerard, do you think you can defeat us with a move like this?"
At this moment, Marui Bunta, who was standing next to Kuwabara, suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes were sharp and focused, as if they could see through everything on the court.
Then, he rushed towards a landing point as fast as lightning.
At the moment the tennis ball was falling, Marui Bunta swung the racket in his hand without hesitation, and hit the ball back with amazing speed and strength before it hit the ground.
"what!"
Seeing this, Johnny Gerard's pupils suddenly shrank and his face was full of disbelief.
He never expected that Marui Bunta could predict where the ball would land so accurately and make such a perfect counterattack in such a short time.
With a loud hitting sound, the tennis ball flew across the court like a meteor, straight towards the area where Johnny Gerard was.
The speed and power of this attack were beyond imagination, shocking everyone present.
Yukimura on the sidelines watched this scene, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
He said softly, "Bunta not only has excellent dynamic vision, but also has extraordinary senses. Coupled with his rich experience in doubles, with the help of synchronization, he can achieve a weakened version of the 'sixth sense' to a certain extent."
Even though this is only a weakened version of this ability, its power should not be underestimated.
What’s more important is that this sixth sense can actually be shared with the Jackal Kuwabara!
This means that Jackal Kuwabara also has the ability to see the future for a moment, so as to accurately predict the opponent's shot line and landing point, and even clearly "see" the opponent's movement.
With this ability, on the premise of "seeing through" the opponent's ball path, Marui Bunta may be able to hit back a ball that the opponent cannot receive.
This undoubtedly brought great changes to the game.
"what happened?"
Johnny Gerard's face became solemn, and he was obviously very confused about the situation.
boom!
boom!
boom!
A strange scene occurred on the field.
Bunta Marui actually came into direct confrontation with Johnny Gerard, who had a resonance of abilities, and Sunshine's high ball was completely ineffective.
No matter how hard Johnny Gerard tried, Marui Bunta always made a wonderful counterattack before the ball landed, and these counterattacks were very threatening.
Of course, what was even more surprising was the following game.
No matter how Johnny Gerard fought back, Marui Bunta seemed to be able to reach the interception position one step ahead.
It was as if he could see through Johnny Gerard's every move and every intention of hitting the ball, as if he was controlled by data tennis.
At this moment, Johnny Gerard was completely suppressed!
His attacks became disorganized, as if he had lost his former confidence and skills.
This sudden change shocked everyone, especially Luke Hoyle. He stared at the field with wide eyes and disbelief, muttering to himself, "Why is this happening? What happened?"
Not only Luke Hoyle, but even the usually calm and wise military strategist Alfonso Solon showed a look of doubt at this moment.
He frowned slightly and stared at the situation on the field, seeming to be trying to think about the reasons.
However, when everyone was at a loss, Ivan, the commander, suddenly said, "Sixth sense!"
Although his voice was not loud, it carried a hint of majesty.
Ivan's eyes were filled with solemnity, and it was obvious that he had his own judgment on the situation.
"It's not a complete awakening, but... a simulation that is combined by various factors!"
Ivan continued to explain, his tone becoming more serious.
"Sixth sense?"
Upon hearing this, Alfonso Solon's face became even more confused.
He quickly searched his mind for information about the sixth sense, but found nothing.
This statement never appeared in the information he collected.
Ivan explained in detail: "This ability, according to rumors, only appears in desperate situations, and it allows people to see the future for a moment.
Specifically, people with this ability can clearly see the opponent's shot line and landing point, and can even accurately predict the opponent's movement.
Because of this, it becomes entirely possible to 'see' the opponent's ball path and hit the ball back so that the opponent cannot catch it."
He paused and continued: "This is the most general explanation of the sixth sense given by the International Tennis Federation.
Simply put, the sixth sense is the ability to see the future.”
Hearing this, Alfonso Solon showed a puzzled look on his face, and he asked: "Is this like what the Sakura National Team said about the limit of talent?"
Ivan shook his head decisively and replied: “It’s different!
The limit of talent is to analyze the opponent's behavior and response methods through a large amount of data measurement, and then simulate a normal game.
The sixth sense is to truly see all the possibilities of the future and make the most effective response based on these possibilities. "
boom! boom! boom!
On the field, the duel between Bunta Marui and Johnny Gerard was as fierce as a collision between Mars and the Earth.
