Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

The scene then repeated itself. In the next service game, Echizen Nanjiro hit two more serves of equal speed, scoring an ace from Chen Anxia and winning his service game with overwhelming force.

Ryoma Echizen was not surprised by the result, nor was Chen Anxia.

Chen Anxia knew that he was currently unable to break through Echizen Nanjiro's terrifying serve.

However, if Chen Anxia is given more time to adapt, with his physique that gets better when facing strong opponents, his ability to concentrate fully, and his exceptional dynamic and visual acuity, he might be able to see the trajectory of Echizen Nanjiro's serve.

At this moment, after Echizen Nanjiro successfully won his service game, the score is now 1-5.

This also means that if Chen Anxia cannot win his next service game, then the match will truly be over.

In his mind, a data model of Echizen Nanjiro's behavioral patterns was running rapidly, rehearsing various 'futures' of Echizen Nanjiro.

This time, however, Chen Anxia was no longer able to accurately predict Echizen Nanjiro's 'future'.

Because Echizen Nanjiro's terrifying serve in the previous game was beyond the scope of the data model.

This also means that the data model of Echizen Minamijiro's behavior patterns that Chen Anxia had previously constructed is no longer accurate, and it is necessary to collect data again and reconstruct the data model.

But Chen Anxia knew that Echizen Nanjiro would definitely not give him another chance to collect data.

So, how can I slow down the match and gather new data on Echizen Nanjiro...?

In a brief moment, a variety of thoughts flashed through Chen Anxia's mind.

In the end, the only solution Chen Anxia could think of was... gambling.

This gamble is betting that your prediction of the 'future' is accurate.

Without further hesitation, Chen Anxia delivered a zero-style serve.

Meanwhile, Echizen Nanjiro was already waiting for Chen Anxia's zero-style serve.

Echizen Nanjiro arrived at the landing point with a serious expression, his eyes fixed on the Zero-style serve that was gradually falling to the ground.

Finally, just as the zero-style serve was about to hit the ground, Echizen Nanjiro moved, swinging his racket directly forward.

The next moment, under Ryoma Echizen's watchful gaze, amidst a series of dull, unpleasant scraping sounds of rackets on the ground, the Zero-Shiki serve was broken...

......

Chapter 315 This is... the realm of selflessness!? (Please subscribe!)

Although he had suspected it for a while, when Ryoma Echizen actually saw Nanjiro Echizen break the Zero Shiki serve, he couldn't help but be shocked and stunned.

Ryoma Echizen never expected that this seemingly unsolvable serve, based on the rules of tennis, could actually be broken.

However, although Ryoma Echizen witnessed the process of the Zero-Shiki serve being broken, he still did not know exactly how Nanjiro Echizen had broken the Zero-Shiki serve.

Of course, at this moment, Ryoma Echizen's mind was in complete chaos, and he was unable to think about this problem.

In the 'future' that Chen Anxia foresaw, he did indeed foresee Echizen Nanjiro breaking his Zero Style Chop.

At the same time, Chen Anxia also foresaw that Echizen Minajiro would use a high lob to break his zero-style slice.

No, to be more precise, Echizen Nanjiro needed to hit a high lob in order to clear the net with his zero-style serve that didn't bounce off the ground.

Because Chen Anxia has already gone all in, betting that his prediction of the 'future' is correct.

So the moment Chen Anxia hit the zero serve, he had already started running towards the net.

And the moment Echizen Nanjiro broke through the zero-style serve and hit a high lob, he was already at the net.

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Anxia leaped high to meet the lob, and then, like a slam dunk, raised his racket high and aimed at the incoming ball, delivering a powerful smash.

As soon as Echizen Ryoma saw Chen Anxia's posture, he knew that Chen Anxia was now using Momoshiro Takeshi's signature move, the crouching smash.

With Chen Anxia's current physical condition and muscle control, he is now able to deliver a powerful squatting smash that surpasses even Momoshiro Takeshi's.

As Ryoma Echizen watched, the ball appeared as if a comet had fallen to earth, terrifying and incredibly heavy.

However, this crouching smash, which was terrifying and heavy in Echizen Ryoma's eyes, was easily countered by Echizen Nanjiro.

Looking at Chen Anxia again, after landing his feet in a squatting smash, he immediately controlled his foot muscles and unleashed terrifying power in an instant.

This terrifying power granted Chen Anxia speed far exceeding anything he had ever experienced before.

Ryoma Echizen, watching from the sidelines, was only briefly distracted by the squatting spike.

When Ryoma Echizen regained his senses, his gaze immediately turned to the net, to where Chen Anxia should have been.

But Ryoma Echizen did not see Chen Anxia.

Immediately, Ryoma Echizen glanced around and spotted Chen Anxia, ​​who was already in a backswing position on the center sideline of the court.

This fact left Ryoma Echizen with a look of astonishment.

Ryoma Echizen had no idea how Chen Anxia had managed to move from the net to the baseline and even get into a backswing in the short time it took him to leave her sight.

'Can Kikumaru, the fastest student at Seigaku, match Anxia's speed?'

This question couldn't help but arise in Echizen Ryoma's mind.

On the field, Echizen Nanjiro also noticed this.

Unlike Echizen Ryoma, Echizen Nanjiro clearly saw the entire process of Chen Anxia's movement.

With his experience and knowledge, Echizen Nanjiro immediately noticed Chen Anxia's unusual behavior. His gaze narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself, 'Besides being in a state of complete concentration, he also possesses muscle control...'

'His talent... is truly freakish!'

Having witnessed Chen Anxia's entire movement, Echizen Nanjiro naturally knew what Chen Anxia, ​​who had already positioned himself at the center baseline, intended to do.

Then, Echizen Nanjiro turned his gaze to the ball he had hit towards the corner of the baseline, muttering, "Boy, your domain is useless against me..."

"I wonder what other surprises you'll bring me..."

After the initial shock, Echizen Ryoma realized that Chen Anxia intended to use his domain.

This made Ryoma Echizen even more serious.

Because Ryoma Echizen wanted to see how his father broke through the barrier.

Under Echizen Ryoma's watchful eye, the ball that Echizen Nanjiro hit towards the corner of the baseline began to tremble slightly after it entered Chen Anxia's field.

It looked as if it were being pulled by gravity, trying to break away from its original trajectory.

However, this ball was not pulled by gravity and did not fly towards Chen Anxia's location. Instead, after a slight tremor, it flew straight back to its original trajectory.

This scene tells Echizen Ryoma that Echizen Nanjiro has broken through Chen Anxia's domain.

While Ryoma Echizen knew that Nanjiro Echizen had broken through Chen Anxia's domain, he didn't know how Nanjiro Echizen had done it.

This is similar to how Ryoma Echizen didn't know how Nanjiro Echizen had cracked the Zero Shiki serve.

Chen Anxia, ​​who was on the field, seemed not to have expected that his domain would be broken. After a slight daze, he suddenly rushed towards the landing point and hit the ball back at the last second.

Because it was a return shot made at the last minute, it was rightfully a lob.

Seeing the high lob, Echizen Nanjiro didn't hesitate at all, went straight to the net, aimed at the undefended half of the court, and smashed the ball.

Although it was just an ordinary smash, the power of it, delivered by Echizen Nanjiro, surpassed that of Chen Anxia's crouching smash.

The moment Ryoma Echizen saw the smash, his mouth slightly agape, as if he was about to declare the score.

In Echizen Ryoma's view, even if Chen Anxia was capable of receiving the ball, it would be too late.

Just as Ryoma Echizen was about to announce the score, Chen Anxia's figure suddenly appeared at the landing point.

Then, to Ryoma Echizen's astonishment, Chen Anxia, ​​with his back to the smash, suddenly turned his body, like a roc spreading its wings, and his racket drew a beautiful arc, intercepting the smash before it landed.

The next moment, in everyone's eyes, the ball turned into a golden light, with a beautiful arc, and was tossed high into the air, landing in the backcourt of Echizen Nanjiro, who had already come to the net and seemed to have no time to return to defend.

Upon seeing this, Ryoma Echizen couldn't help but mutter, "The brown bear has been caught..."

As he spoke, Ryoma Echizen asked with a puzzled look, "But how was Anxia able to get to the landing point in such a short time?"

On the field, Echizen Nanjiro watched the ball, his expression unchanged, thinking to himself, 'In the future you foresaw, this ball should have scored directly...'

'Unfortunately, I foresaw the future you foresaw...'

'In my foresight, this ball... will go out of bounds!'

Behind Echizen Nanjiro, the brown bear that should have fallen into the net was suddenly affected by an invisible repulsive force and flew directly out of the arena.

At the same time, Ryoma Echizen, who clearly saw the unusual ball, couldn't help but look astonished, muttering, "This is... a distant paradise!?"

......

Chen Anxia lost, and rightfully so.

Sitting on the tram on his way home, Chen Anxia recalled his first lost match and his conversation with Echizen Nanjiro afterward. A thoughtful expression appeared on his face as he processed the match with Echizen Nanjiro.

Then, Chen Anxia closed her eyes slightly.

When Chen Anxia opened her eyes again, there was no light in them, and she exuded an empty aura.

In a seat not far away, a solemn-looking young man wearing a black baseball cap seemed to sense something, turning his astonished gaze over and muttering, "This is... the state of no-self!?"

......

Chapter 316 The Flaw of the Kingly Rikkai University, Genichiro Sanada's Challenge! (Please Subscribe!)

Inside the door to see the door, the layman to watch the fun.

Because the state of selflessness is the highest level in tennis, ordinary people cannot perceive it. At most, they can only sense that Chen Anxia's aura has changed, but they don't know where the change is.

Only those in the tennis world, with a certain level of tennis proficiency, can possess a sensitive awareness of the state of selflessness.

The boy wearing a black baseball cap who sensed Chen Anxia's awakening of the state of selflessness was a figure from the tennis world. His name was Sanada Genichiro, and he was the vice-captain of the Rikkai University Affiliated Middle School Tennis Club.

Like Chen Anxia, ​​Sanada Genichiro is a national-level powerhouse with the title of King, and is known as the Emperor in the junior high school tennis world of Japan.

At this moment, Genichiro Sanada was looking at Chen Anxia with a serious expression, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, muttering to himself, "He's wearing Seigaku's team uniform..."

"Aside from Tezuka Kunimitsu and Fuji Syusuke, the only one most likely to reach the state of 'Seigaku's King' who has recently risen to fame is probably Tezuka Kunimitsu..."

"So, he must be Seigaku's King..."

As he spoke, Sanada Genichiro frowned slightly, seemingly lost in thought, and muttered to himself, "It seems that what Kirihara saw that day wasn't his true strength..."

"The fact that he can reach the state of 'no self' is enough to show that his strength is at least on par with the demonized Kirihara..."

After saying this, Genichiro Sanada's brows furrowed even deeper.
