< VS Jokovic # 3 >

“Game 11, Player Ready! ”

Hanwoojin stood on his coat and lightly warmed up. The area of the ankle that was starting to feel like it rested for a while returned to its original state. No matter how many times I whipped, nothing hurt me. I haven't finished one set yet.

It was a difficult situation because I was already exhausted, but I could only say that it was a relief.

Even so, my health consumption was more than I expected. It was no wonder that Hanwoojin, who was forcibly taxed to stay on the high ground, was consuming more power than Rally was on Jokovich's side.

Too many Stingers? No, it would be hard to keep track of all the sub-games if you didn't. ’

After a moment of reflection on his play, Han Woo-jin shook his head. It was the best decision and the best play. Even if I went back before the start of the game, I could not create more development.

If he had been hesitant to use Stinger for a while, by now, one set would have fallen into Zokovich's hands.

And it was the same today. What you can do with a simple serve is already over in about five games. This was due to the limitations of restraint or reliant subplay against Zokovich, who perfectly defends the entire coat.

Fortunately, I don't need to save my SP. Two rounds pass over two days, so I was able to fully recover after a day's rest, even if I spent today's full power. Hanwoojin did not hesitate to use Stinger.

[Strength stats increase by 3 for 1 stroke.]

[You have applied to the sub. Increases restraint on sub.]

[One second of stiffness will be applied immediately after stroke.]

[You applied to Stinger. SP consumption is doubled]

Notification messages instantly strike and fade. I had already mobilized all the concentration I could afford to assign to that side. As soon as the rhythm matched, Han Woo-jin threw the ball.

Paoaoaoaoang!

This creepy sound is a testament to horseshit. Otherwise, the chaotic sub of Han Woo-jin oversteps the realm of common sense due to the intervention of special technologies. Detainment is still in the mid-30s, which is a big deal, but it's still Zokovich-grade.

If I was a player, I would have stayed even after I had adjusted.

But it wasn't just that. The ball leaves the racket and snaps at an odd angle while maintaining its terrifying speed. The speed and trajectory you can't adapt to, no matter how many times you look at it!

Although basic proficiency would not have left even Roger Pedro behind, there was no experience encountering such a ball other than common sense.

Kang!

The ball that missed the racket frame bounced high. Even the unreasonable rate of conversion of the returning bag was short of two beats to catch up with the stinger. It was great to hit, but Han Woo-jin ran into the racket in front of the bouncing ball.

I was waiting for food to come.

Pa-ang!

“Fifteen Love (15: 0)! ”

After winning the 11 games, Hanwoojin let out a long sigh while wiping off the sweat from his grip. Even Stinger who has kept the name of invincibility so far is one step ahead. I deserved to be praised as the perfect backhand.

However, unlike Han Woo-jin, who couldn't let go of the string of tension, the commentators who had seen the Stinger several times were excited. Even the highly psychological rally drew sweat from his hands, but he won this battle.

Happiness boils when you reap it.

You win points again, Hanwoojin! That sub you pulled out around the time of the 5th game has been playing a really crazy game!

Topspin or drive? This serve does not apply to either side. But imprisonment is either faster or faster on Platt, which makes sense! It's weird that a jokovich touched a racket!

A topspin on the way in? I can't read it because it's bent in the reverse direction. Odds are you'll only be able to split it in half and go left and right, but Zokovich is the type of tactician who would employ such a gambling tactic.

No, it's the type of thing you try to read. It's becoming poisonous!

That's right. Even if Stinger boasts any irregular trajectory, it ends up frying up and down in his coat. If he decided to defend only the left or the right, he would be able to completely block the defence.

But Jokovich didn't. He believed in his built-up style and won the battle rather than asking for victory in such a gambling way. At first, Stinger was untouchable, and now it's touching.

It was also the driving force that was chased all the way.

Maybe if only a few more games had been given time, they would have really caught up. If ‘Stinger’ was beyond common sense, ‘Returning Bag’ was also beyond common sense. With experience, there's nothing you can't handle.

Yeah, I wish I had a little more time.

Pa-ang!

“Han Test Game! 65!"

Reverse position. The two players switched back to the odd score. Zokovich grabs the ball handed to him, and Han Woo-jin lowers himself while holding the racket.

‘Hang on a little longer. ’

Energizes the right arm, which has already begun to tremble. Zokovich throws the ball vigorously, avoiding the pain of his right arm. It looked like there was no problem with the toast movement.

Pa-ang!

Repeated rallies are reproduced dozens of times. Hanwoojin strikes again as hard as he can with his flying serve, and Jokovich repeats. A defender dedicated to defending and consistent attacks with heavy hits is almost completely symmetrical.

Paan!

But it was a little different than before. Hanwoojin, a subtle glamour he couldn't even see, managed to catch a strange clue that tickled his neck.

‘It was a little... dull? If it had been a while ago, I would have had time to use the counter. ’

The score rate of the backhand has not been 100%. However, when the time came to win, it must have been won. It's as if this proves that the reaction rate and judgement are all counters at Zokovich's peak.

But what about the back hand a while ago? I missed my chance to win for sure with an ordinary rally. In Jokovich's view, this was a fatal mistake. No, is it really a mistake?

It was almost simultaneous to making a decision and taking action. It was vague to say I was sure. Odds are it's only about five. It was a close choice for dice, which may or may not be. Intuition, not reason.

This deeply involved fork in the road.

Hanwoojin stepped forward without hesitation, a path he would never have chosen if he were Jokovich.

Pa-ang!

One more punch, triggered by the batter, crosses the net and digs to Jokovich's left. It was in exactly the same order as it had been hit the counter several times so far.

A counter is a counterattack that uses its target's power to reverse itself. The stronger you are, the faster you go, the stronger your power will return. Hanwoojin's assault was clearly threatening, but the risk of getting hit by the counter also increased.

No. For Jokovich, it was like a room of food in front of him.

By the way,

Bam!

You hear the sound of another drowning sound. Jokovich's back hand is incredibly fragile. And Jokovich was not a great man to make a series of mistakes.

“Suck!”

Paoaoaoaoang!

The more confident you are, the stronger you are. A fully powered two-hand fires. The rally continues to weaken a bit, but if you hold it with both hands, the story is different. The strength level of Hanwoojin, which even the bastards hit, is 73. Apologize.

Of course, walnuts twist the handle with the power to powder it.

The ball would have been 10 kilometers faster than before, and Jokovich would have handed out the racket.

Boom!

The ball slammed across the edges of the racket takes a large step out of the coat.

I can't hide it anymore. It was either an excuse or a mistake. You no longer have to act when the opponent has identified his weakness.

“Love Fifteen (0: 15)! ”

After backing up the verdict, Jokovich raises his left arm, not holding the racket.

It was a request from Medical Time.

* * *

The moment medical personnel rushed into the stadium and surrounded Zokovich, commentators immediately deduced what had happened. He had to. Two backhanded failures in a row, and this was the first time

It was.

I think there's something wrong with Jokovich's condition. You just asked for medical time, right?

That's right. You'll probably get 10 to 15 minutes of rest. If you are judged to be in too bad condition, you may not be able to proceed.

Hanwoojin would have been a problem to cover one set of punches with one hand. The backhand is essentially a style that is prone to accumulated impact on the arms. So most of the time I do it with both hands... The shifting of Jokovich's attitude

It's a technique you can't use without a hand. In a way, it's a natural outcome.

Jokovich's special skills, the Returning Bag, had basic prerequisites. The style of quickly folding and straightening your elbows and shifting your stance was always a one-handed technique. That's enough to hold it with both hands.

I was running out of turnaround time.

However, this sudden condition occurred because Hanwoojin's blow was more powerful than he could have imagined.

Jokovich could have been as consistent as one backhand all three sets if he had fought an ordinary player. His strong right arm was consumed so quickly, it was proof that the strength of the ball he was dealing with was so great.

Oh, I think medical time is over. The medics are pulling out of their coats.

It took exactly 10 minutes. Jokovich, can you get back on your coat? I hope it's not serious, but on the one hand, I don't want you to come up here.

I get it. Jokovich's got to be tough. Now that Han Woojin has been attacking you all set, you can see the effect. I hope that's not a bluff.

Did the eager origin of the three commentators not work? After turning the racket a few times, Jokovich steps forward toward his coat with a heavy glow. The moment he stepped in his coat, a sigh of sorrow from somewhere floated through the gut.

13B.

However, Han Woo-jin noticed a change faster than anyone else. Jokovich on his coat, his hand in the racket, changed.

‘Left hand...’

Tennis players are basically trained to handle both hands skillfully. It was also designed to train more precise senses when using two-handed, and if I could spare the time, I could try a switch to widen the strategy

I did.

But can such an additionally refined counterpart perform the same skills as the main arm? If you ask me, the story becomes different.

“Game 12! Love Fifteen (0: 15), ― Play! ”

The match resumes. Zokovich throws the ball with his pale right arm, whether it was covered in ice or not. I see a slight tremor in my fingertips. Again, the damage you inflicted throughout the set was unlikely to recover in 10 minutes.

Paan!

The sub flies with a faint sound. Han Woo-jin revitalized his tired body. Only a fool stops when the victory is assured. Now that the counters are sealed, it's time to step forward and wage a battle.

was.

SP as well as HP were consumed. Jokovich is the one who fell first, but Han Woo-jin is exhausted. The leader of the set is the dominant leader!

Pa-ang!

The ball is coming in. It consumes the breath that is left for two sets and heats it up. Every time I return, I speed up the ball and drop it into Zokovich's coat.

Even if I trained my hands evenly, perfect switching was impossible for humans. So was Zokovich. The backhand, which was like a tiger's gill, has now become an intrigue in a different sense.

“Fifteen Forty (15: 40)! Han Set Point Test! ”

In less than 10 minutes, Zokovich is at the edge of the cliff. In the meantime, he seems to have managed to defend at least one point to show his power. The thickness of the defense remained even though Han Woo-jin pushed him without any capacity. Medium Ball

If you were a violent owner, you might be tired of your right arm's defensive abilities.

However, it is Han Woo-jin who will not be left behind by anyone with scoring skills. It was impossible to endure his explosive blow with one arm.

Paoaoaoaoang!

Eventually, one set of membranes plunges down with a terrifying force. If you pick it up, the ball becomes a green lightning bolt and hits the coat with the strength to crush it with the eighth of its kind. For the first time in this match, Hanwoojin's imprisonment will reduce Jokovich's reflection speed.

It was a moment that was surpassing.

“Han Test Game! Set won by Ujin Han, 75! ”

"Whoa!"

It was a different set. Han Woo-jin almost sat down without even knowing it. Somehow, I stood up and endured the unbelievable sight in his eyes.

‘Huh...? ’

Zokovich holds the racket upside down with his right hand raised.

Before Han Woo-jin could think of anything, the referee who confirmed his intentions nodded. Under these circumstances, there were limits to what Zokovich could ask for. Tell me more about a player who's been injured in the race.

Neither did I.

The referee stood up and crossed his arms. The silence sounded loud enough to spread throughout the stadium, declaring the winner of Group B matches.

“Game set! 75, Djokovic retired! ”

It was a set score of 10, a declaration announcing Han Woo-jin's absence.
