boom…

"The Kanto team scored, the score was 1:0"

"Just now... that's not a ghost ball... Could it be a disguise..."

……

"What's wrong with you, it's not like you usually are, if you don't pull yourself together, I'll be in trouble."

"Yes, boss."

The first game was easily lost, and coach Baker, who was eager to win, once again said Kevin.

"This guy is stronger than I imagined..."

At the beginning of the second game, Kevin looked at Kirihara who was walking towards him during the game change.

"Hmph, I heard that you are very strong. I have been looking forward to fighting with you for a long time, but it turns out that your strength is at this level, which makes me happy for nothing."

Kirihara, who passed by Kevin, stopped, looked back at Kevin and said.

"what did you just say?"

"Since you can't play a decent game, you might as well go back as soon as possible."

Hearing Kirihara's contemptuous words, Kevin gritted his teeth again.

"You bastard, really pissed me off!"

At the beginning of the second round, Kevin, who was irritated by Kirihara, finally had some fighting spirit.

"Coach Sakaki, I finally understand why you chose Kirihara to play.

No wonder you didn't let Echizen, who was well-studied by the opponent, play, but chose to deal with the left-handed Kirihara. "

"No, my reasons are more than that."

In the waiting room, Coach Huacun saw Kirihara's performance and thought that Coach Sakaki had deliberately arranged for Kirihara to deal with the left-handed Kevin.

But what came later was Coach Sakaki's denial.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"Not only must you pursue further fighting spirit, but you must also have the ability to turn your fighting spirit into results. Kirihara possesses these two conditions at the same time."

On the other side, in the player tunnel, Sanada had a faint smile on his face when he saw that his players were high-spirited.

boom…

"The West Coast team scored, the score was 1:1"

"Hmph, the game is finally starting to be a little fun."

After being caught up by Kevin for a round, Kirihara was not in a hurry, but rather excited.

"This game, I will win."

At the beginning of the third round, Kirihara adjusted his state again.

"Stop dreaming, it must be me who wins."

Kevin, who was irritated by Kirihara, did not give in at all, and the confrontation between the two was full of gunpowder.

"No matter how good your ghost ball is, I won't let you win."

Thinking of preventing Kirihara from winning, Kevin was distracted for a moment.

Some errors caused the flying ball to return, and the power and angle were not in the best position.

The ball, which was supposed to fly over the net without a hitch, hit the net, but just happened to go over the net.

Kevin was a little thankful for the original mistake but a good net shot.

But Kirihara didn't let go of any chance to return the ball, and saw Kirihara running towards the net without stopping.

Finally, with a kick of the right foot, the whole body rushed forward and hit a ghost ball.

"Kirihara don't..."

Horio on the coach's bench found out and immediately stopped him, but Kirihara had already done so before he could finish speaking.

"The Kanto representative team scored, 15:0"

Kevin didn't expect Kirihara to be able to hit a ghost ball in a swooping posture, but when Kevin turned his head, his face changed again.

At this time, everyone's expressions on the field also changed, and after Kirihara flew out to catch the ball, due to inertia, his right shoulder hit the net post.

"Student, don't worry."

The referee immediately went to check on Kirihara after seeing it, and Kirihara lay on the ground for a while before standing up.

"It's okay, it's just that I rushed too hard just now, you see, I'm fine at all."

Kirihara pretended to be fine, turned his shoulders to the referee, and seeing that there was nothing unusual on Kirihara's face, the referee continued the game.

"Kirihara..."

"Okay, the fun is about to begin..."

Although Kirihara acted like nothing happened, Horio didn't think so, but was interrupted by Kirihara just as he was about to speak.

After returning to the baseline, Kirihara was ready to serve.

But when he swung the bat, his face was obviously a little bit wrong, and Horio also saw the momentary pause of Kirihara's swing.

"Sure enough, it's still hurt... It seems that it won't last long."

Horio's words have also been verified. In the next few rounds of sparring, Kirihara did not use the ghost ball again.

"Eh? It's not a ghost ball."

Everyone off the court also found it strange that they didn't score even though it was a good opportunity.

But Kirihara's behavior is underestimating in Kevin's eyes.

Once again, Kevin was irritated and launched a counterattack.

Facing Kevin's counterattack with increased strength again, Kirihara, whose shoulders were originally unable to use force, suffered even more.

Slowly, Kirihara, who had been able to endure it before, gradually showed a painful look on his face.

"There's something wrong with the situation now."

"Why doesn't Chiya play ghost ball anymore?"

"What are you doing, hit the ghost ball quickly, or he will win."

Fuji and Sanada off the field didn't know Kirihara's intentions either, Kikumaru shouted anxiously seeing that Kirihara never played ghost ball.

"It's not that he doesn't play, but he can't. The ghost ball needs a strong spin, but the current Kirihara can't use that much power at all."

Horio could already see that Kirihara's shoulder was severely injured by the impact just now.

boom…

"The West Coast team scored, 30:15"

boom…

"The West Coast team scored, 40:15"

boom…

"The West Coast team scored, the score was 2:1"

"It hurts."

At the end of the third game, the players returned to the coach's bench to rest, Horio said to Kirihara abruptly.

"What are you talking about, Horio, I'm fine."

"It should be difficult for your shoulder to even return the ball now. If you persist like this, your shoulder will be destroyed."

"Even if my shoulder is ruined... I won't give up the game easily."

Seeing that he has been seen through, Kirihara no longer hides it.

"Since you're going to do it, go for it, but I'll stop you when you reach your limit."

Hearing Horio's words, Kirihara was somewhat unwilling, but helplessly, this was his right as a coach.

In order to be able to finish before Horio called to stop the game, Kirihara no longer cared about anything.

When the fourth game started, Kirihara no longer acted as normal as before.

This time he switched to holding the racket with both hands, temporarily making up for the lack of strength.

This move finally attracted the attention of everyone off the court, but because Kirihara won the fourth round, everyone didn't think much about it.

In the fifth round, Kirihara still used both hands to hold the racket, but at this time, Kevin began to suppress Kirihara again.

The fifth game soon came to 40:0, which became Kevin's game point.

Seeing that holding the racket with both hands has no effect, Kirihara knew that if he didn't hit the ghost ball, the game would be hopeless.

Enduring the severe pain in his shoulder, Kirihara hit the ghost ball again.

Kevin, who can't tell the truth from the fake, can only rely on guessing, but he guesses wrong.
