Net King: Nioh Phantom

boom!

Snapped! Snapped!

Mori and Atobe made no mistakes in their decision-making, and they did rely on their understanding of Nioh and Ochi to successfully slow down the rhythm of the game.

But just because the pace of the game is no longer accelerating, it doesn’t mean that the frequency of tennis balls hitting the ground is getting slower and slower!

One ball after another hit the ground of the court. After bouncing, it was not successfully swung back...

Bang!

Fighting against Yue Zhi Yueguang was like swinging a ball against the edge of a sword, with a dangerous aura pressing on his body, extremely heavy. Both Atobe and Mori had been Ochi's opponents, and their games with Ochi had left a deep impression on them, so of course they all still remembered Ochi's tennis style.

Now, Nioh Masaharu and Ochi Gekko are partnering in doubles for the first time - the two of them play doubles together, and the person who calls the shots seems to be Ochi, but it also seems to be Nioh.

Because their doubles style feels familiar to Maori who knows the two, but feels awkward at the same time.

Maori tried to use his understanding to master the game of predicting the next move in tennis, but he was always half a beat too slow by sticking to his previous ideas.

And Atobe felt the same way... he even mistakenly thought that Niou had used"Phantom"!

Because the doubles match between Nioh and Ochi really made him feel"familiar""！！

【Is this... the style from the last game?】

【No! It's two people - the style of both of them combined!! ]

After beating it for a while, Atobe, who had been unsure about it even though he had this feeling at first, was finally able to confirm it.

The reason why he felt familiar was not because of Niou's"phantom""——Nioh Masaharu didn't use his phantom at all.

He felt familiar because he was familiar with Nioh and Ochi!

In the doubles between Nioh and Ochi, there is no leader at all. Both of them are the"masters" of the doubles, and they equally share the control of the doubles.

This is something incredible.

In doubles, it is difficult to master"balance" because the balance is so fragile. Every swing and every run may break this balance.

But Nioh and Ochi did it... Although the tacit understanding between the two of them still did not reach the level of"same tune", they were able to maintain this fragile balance in the fierce doubles!

It is precisely because of this"balance" that Atobe and Mori are always"half-step full", because they only understand Nioh or Ochi individually, rather than seeing Nioh and Ochi as a"double team"".

Bang bang bang – what happened next was obvious.

Snapped!

"Do you want to start 'Game 3'?"

With the sound of the ball hitting the ground, Nioh asked.

It's enough to hit here. The four people in their court know each other well. It's just one or two hours of doubles training to improve their skills. There is no tacit understanding between any two of them.

However, Niou and the four of them did not expect that today's evening training could improve the tacit understanding between any two of them. The four players understood it very well - the four of them actually wanted to play while playing. Relax!

There is a fighting spirit, but more of an idea of ​​"happy first".

Therefore, a consensus on the"third game" was quickly reached!

"OK!"

Nioh proposed to start the"third game", and Ochi, as Nioh's current doubles partner, was naturally in the default state. So when Mori agreed to this proposal, the start of the"third game" was unstoppable.

"There is less than half an hour left. Although we are the first to start the 'third game', the remaining time may not be enough."

There are still twenty minutes left, and the prescribed evening training is about to end.

Mori doesn't want to stay for extra training. When he was in the Rikkai Tennis Club, he had the idea of ​​avoiding training when he faced Yukimura and Sanada, and he really did. He has taken action (Mouri: You have trained enough, don’t train any more!). Now, how can he be willing to train more during a time when coaches in overseas training camps do not make arrangements? Therefore, Jusaburo

Mori agrees." Hurry up and start the 'Third Game'" proposal

"Long wait, Atobe."

Nioh came over and exchanged positions with Mori.

Starting from yesterday, the players' choice of doubles partners no longer limits their"identity", and the distinction between junior high school students and high school students no longer exists. So today's evening training, Ji At the beginning, Atobe invited Nioh to train in doubles together... Atobe invited Nioh to be his doubles partner. They would play doubles together as a partner for the first forty minutes, then as an opponent for the next forty minutes, and the ten minutes in the middle were intermittent rest times - this That was Atobe's original plan.

But after Nioh brought Mori over, Atobe asked Ochi's opinion for some reason...

When the four of them stood on the court, the"first" doubles training changed. It became a situation like Nioh, Mori vs. Atobe, and Ochi.

And in the second game, Mori and Ochi naturally switched sides.

The two high school players were like taking a walk, very naturally They walked to the opposite side! They walked too casually and didn't even ask the junior high school students for their opinions.

After they walked to the opposite side, they each realized that their behavior just now... seemed a bit inappropriate.

But Nioh can understand the two of them. The thoughts of a high school senior.

Mori-senpai and Ochi-senpai already have a relationship with him and Atobe, and coupled with his and Atobe's performance during the qualifying match... Nioh felt that he could understand the two seniors'"uncontrollable feelings""

【Your partner is great, I want to try it too……】 or so

【You have a great partner, now it's my turn to play doubles with him! 】

Although it is better to play doubles with the player who knows you best, but if it is four players who know each other and become familiar with each other...this wonderful idea will probably appear.

"Ah well, it's been less than a month since the last time..."

Atobe held the tennis ball and raised his hand and said.

Nioh was talking about today's evening training, but Atobe obviously remembered the qualifying match of doubles with Nioh in the U17 training camp.

"I don't lack patience."

He said with a pun. In the doubles practice in the evening training, the"second game" was given to the two high school seniors who were too excited about today's doubles. Atobe Keigo could afford to wait for the"third game". He They are also willing to wait for this"third game".

Patience will bring benefits. Although their physical strength has weakened accordingly in the third game, it also saves time for warming up and testing! ps, yes, Because it was the last doubles practice time, these four players decided to relax. Of course, the others were still very serious. pps, unfinished, will be continued tomorrow. I am too sleepy now to write.
