Standing on the polished wood of the court, Uchika Hanesaki holds herself with the effortless authority of a champion. Her sharp eyes sweep the space, taking in every detail. "I am Uchika Hanesaki," she says, her voice low and steady, each word precise. "I retired with ten All Japan titles to my name. The players I've trained—Ayano, Connie, Wang—now compete among the world's elite."
