Thank you handsome @Friss for the raws.

Chapter 374

Chapter 375

Chapter 376

The summary is based on machine-translated content, take it with a grain of salt pls.

Fuji looks at Ryoma and says he won’t lose against the same opponent twice.

Ryoma replies that he hasn't won against Fuji in the first place anyway.

The game starts and Ryoma, standing confidently, seemingly does a return ace... but Fuji matches TnK's speed returning the shot with his Light Wind.

Kirihara: I KNEW IT (LOL)

It's explained that inside your head you first see your opponent's movements, then analyse the outcome of the ball and said opponent's movement, and then react accordingly. However, with his Light Wind Fuji's brain is skipping the middle step altogether, and reacts immediately after seeing his opponent move thanks to his outstanding tennis sense.

Fuji reflects that everyone has hardships, striving towards the path that is paved along the way. Because of the thrill of tennis, he has honed his skills. He felt his tennis was limited and didn't even know if he was putting in enough effort. He kept comparing himself to Tezuka, always faithful to tennis. He felt he was small...

But he's been working hard now, he wants to win. He doesn't need to compare himself to anyone anymore.

An overly excited Fuji now overwhelms Echizen. Fuji he proclaims he’s not giving up the gift of tennis, he's been blessed by Gods.*

Fuji leads 5-3.

When Fuji says "3つ目の誓い", he means "The third vow". It's easy to mistake it with "third eye", though.

He mentions those vows in chapter 142, but I don't think he's ever referred to them individually. Unless, the first was "Syusuke Fuji will make a fresh start" and the second "I won't be relying on defensive tennis anymore". And now, the third "I won't let go of this gift of tennis, given to me by god." (Just to clarify, there's no arrogance in his words, he just feels lucky of being able to play tennis.)

By the way, the page in which Fuji is leading the 5-3 is the last page of the chapter 374. The order of images in the album is incorrect because of that.

The Shiten members rush into the courtside, they heard Kin and Shiraishi are playing. It's doubles, but for some reason their partners are letting them go head to head.

Shiraishi is using Star Bible perfectly. By focusing on speed, he can catch any shot no matter what. Focusing on his technique, he can send shots towards the weak points of Kintarou, who hasn't adapted to doubles yet.

Kintarou complains, he's not good at this. "It's not fair". Diving, he barely manages to return Shiraishi's drop shot.

Ohmagari realises Kintarou needs his support and attempts to join the match.

"Such a handsome hardworking senpai ♥"
"DIE YOU CHEATER"
Zaizen: "Senpai you are world-class idiots"

Tanegashima tells Ohmagari that he won't let him interfere, he wants to see the middle schoolers play.

Ohmagari replies jokingly "got a soft spot for the kouhais huh?" but he knows the truth: Shiraishi is explosive when he has to, and patient when he needs to. His abilities keep growing throughout the match, and despite Kintarou being a constant threat he's perfectly aware of all his weaknesses.

"You are his captain... how can you attack him so relentlessly?" With Kintarou being so overwhelmed, Ohmagari has to interfere... but then so does the man who never loses, Japan's number 2, Tanegashima Shuuji!

On the other doubles, Ochi scores 3 consecutive aces with his Mach.

Masked Man H admits it is fast, but at the end of the day it travels in a straight line trajectory and, if you can sense it and read the course, it's a returnable shot.

"You only need enough strength to swing through... and I have enough! You've been defeated, Ochi!" Thought Masked Man H, right before Mouri easily scores aiming at him and seals the game. 3-2. Mouri tells his opponents they don't understand doubles.

Meanwhile, the fight for Japan's number 1 spot continues. Tokugawa is pushed back by the king of destruction, France's former ace. Determined to fight head on, he manages to release Asura. He's finally playing interdimensional tennis!

Tokugawa and his Asura rush towards the net... and get slammed into the ground, as Duke reveals his own Kijin.

Duke's sister arrives at the courtside. She's shocked, as she sees Tokugawa laying on the ground, on the brink of death.

However, he regains strength and stands up. Duke reflects on this. Tokugawa's almost dead, why is he fighting back? He's just like his boss... This display of courage pushes Duke to follow Byoudouin's final order. He releases his sealed Kijin, the Demon God of Destruction (maybe inspired by the Polynesian god Tū-mata-uenga... tho they usually aren't fat. Apparently Tu means Stand which is a funny coincidence).

Tokugawa serves but notices his Asura is gone. It's been destroyed by Duke's God, who scores consecutive return aces and easily breaks Tokugawa's serve. It's 5-4 now. Was that one surprise attack the differnce between victory and defeat?

No, Tokugawa is not done yet. He promised Irie and Oni he'd be the number one Japan rep and lead them to the top of the world.

Now that Asura has been destroyed, Duke once again commends Tokugawa's persistence. He'll have to destroy that as well!

However... he freezes as he tries to serve. He's being held back by a Black Hole?!

Duke's Kijin fights it back and manages to destroy the Tokugawa's technique. However, this makes his serve completely lose control, and it's now heading towards his sister. Duke stands in shock, powerless...

"You missed by a lot.."

Tokugawa stops the shot!

He still believes in Righteousness. Is that possible? Can Righteousness really win against the world?

As a stunned Duke stares, a figure is seen behind Tokugawa.

Back on Atobe vs Irie, the latter is confused as Atobe is trying to turn this into an endurance battle that he cannot win. Irie warns Keigo of this, the game is over.

But Atobe refuses to give up.

Back on the match that actually matters after that pointless intervention... Tokugawa wins, 7-5!

Duke: Thank you for saving my sister.

Tokugawa: It's nothing. But, Duke-senpai, put some clothes on, please.

Duke: Tokugawa-san, you might do it. You can win against the world with your Righteousness and make it a better place.
