Chapter 163: The Emperor Fights the Emperor Again (Part )
"boom!"
This crisp and powerful collision seemed not only the sound of icicles breaking, but also the sound of a certain balance being broken in this game.
He turned his head sharply, his eyes blazing, but he could only watch the fragments of the icicle that was hit accurately scatter all over the ground.
"15-0, Hyotei is leading."
The referee's voice was calm and ruthless, announcing the temporary balance of victory and defeat on the field.
This is not just a difference in score, but also a subtle blow to Sanada's psychology.
He knew very well that every point was crucial when facing an opponent like Atobe, and being behind at this moment would undoubtedly make the next game more difficult.
Especially since Atobe has already made his move.
Atobe stood in front of the net with a playful smile on his lips. His eyes looked through the net, full of confidence and provocation.
"You're still the same, Sanada."
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, but more of it was recognition and respect for Sanada's strength. After all, the other party had forced out his world of ice.
"There are so many blind spots. Under my eyes that can see through everything, every blind spot of yours will be exposed."
Sanada didn't respond immediately. He slowly lowered his head and pulled the brim of his hat even lower, almost covering his entire face, as if to block out external distractions and focus on his inner world.
No one could see through the shadow and glimpse his expression and emotions at the moment.
But even this silence reveals a sense of oppression that cannot be underestimated.
Immediately afterwards, a deep and heart-pounding aura suddenly surged out from Sanada's body like an invisible giant python and wrapped around him.
His aura began to become restrained.
This power not only shocked everyone present, but also made Keigo Atobe frown slightly.
But he was not shaken by this, and still maintained his composure and confidence, ready to follow his original intention and use the Ice World at the beginning to win this point.
However, at this moment, the picture in Atobe's eyes seemed to change subtly.
The once clearly visible areas of ice pillars that represented the weaknesses of Sanada's defense slowly dissipated like morning mist, replaced by chaos and blur.
He suddenly widened his eyes, trying to catch the fleeting flaw, but found that he had no way to see Sanada's weakness.
At this moment, his eyes involuntarily fell on Sanada opposite him.
I saw that Sanada's body was surrounded by a thick and strange black gas. The gas seemed to have life, moving around his body and emitting a chilling breath.
It was the existence of this ominous aura that disturbed Atobe's vision like never before, and he could no longer easily see through Sanada's weaknesses as before.
There was still no expression on Sanada's face, as if all this was within his expectations.
He spoke slowly, his voice deep and powerful. "It's truly ironic that the two ultimate techniques, Yin and Thunder, which I sealed away specifically to counter Tezuka, were used on you by such a coincidence. Atobe, you should feel honored to be the first to experience these two techniques."
After saying this, Sanada's tone suddenly became cold and decisive. "However, you may be disappointed. This move, 'Unpredictable as the Shadow,' was created precisely to counter Tezuka's brilliant talent. Unfortunately, it happens to be the nemesis of your Ice World move."
But Atobe had no time to hesitate, as his serve was about to come, and he could only try his luck by hitting a Tannhauser serve.
But unfortunately, the goddess of luck did not favor him. He failed to hit Sanada's weakness and was easily beaten back by Sanada with "Thunder".
Atobe had no time to react and was scored by Sanada.
"15-15, tie."
Atobe's face was gloomy, and his eyes revealed a complex emotion, including recognition of Tianyu's accurate prediction and surprise at Sanada's hidden strength, but more of hesitation about the current situation.
Just as Tianyu predicted, Sanada still had a crucial trump card.
However, isn't it the same for Atobe?
He also has a hidden trick, which is the trump card he carefully prepared in order to defeat Tezuka in the final.
But at this moment, facing Sanada's sudden offensive, he had to re-evaluate the situation and realized that if he continued to act according to the original plan, he might not only miss the opportunity to fight, but he would also be more likely to end up in a situation where both sides suffered losses in this fierce battle, which was definitely not what he wanted.
After careful consideration, Atobe finally made up his mind.
He knew that any hesitation would be fatal.
So he took a deep breath, and his eyes became sharp in an instant, as if he wanted to throw all his hesitations and concerns behind him.
He slowly looked across at Sanada.
At this moment, Sanada seemed to feel the powerful aura emanating from Atobe.
He frowned slightly, a sense of foreboding welling up in his heart. He realized that he seemed to have been seen through by Atobe, and the feeling of being completely understood by his opponent made him feel unprecedented pressure.
As a result, the atmosphere between the two became more tense and delicate. They both knew that every second that followed would determine the direction and outcome of the game.
And Atobe is already prepared and he will give it his all.
Atobe served the ball, and this time, he used the Atobe Kingdom.
I saw that Atobe's eyes were slightly narrowed, emitting a sharp light, like a king dominating the world, with majestic momentum.
His eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, understanding every move and intention of his opponent.
In an instant, everything about Sanada's bones was exposed before his eyes.
Atobe hit the ball in an instant. Sanada looked at the ball and was about to hit back, but he was horrified to find that he could not move!
His body seemed to be bound by an invisible force and he couldn't move.
I could only watch Atobe score.
"30-15, Hyotei is leading."
Atobe didn't say anything and hit two more serves.
With the help of the Atobe Kingdom, he easily won these two points.
"Game Hyotei Atobe, 4-2."
Looking at the sweaty Sanada in front of him, Atobe slowly said, "Stop it, Sanada. If you continue to use that move, you will only waste your energy."
However, Sanada simply ignored Atobe's words and walked straight to his baseline, ready to serve.
Atobe gave a wry smile. He had already reminded Sanada, but it was obvious that Sanada didn't listen.
Then, he could only watch this "old friend" fall into defeat.
