The Prince of Tennis: My tennis skills come from Naruto

Chapter 182 Mitsuya's Data Torrent

But it was too late to react now. Even though Yuushi Oshitari activated his mind-locking ability, it only put him in an absolutely calm AI state. AI requires data and processor support to function, but Genichiro Sanada's ball was completely beyond his processing range, making it impossible to track the trajectory. Now, he couldn't react to the rebound speed, so even closing his mind didn't work. The tennis ball flew out safely without any obstruction.

Genichiro Sanada slowly put down his racket, his sharp gaze fixed on the two opposite him, and coldly uttered four words, "Swift as the wind!"

""

Immediately afterwards, the referee announced the score: "Akuto Mitsuya & Genichiro Sanada score! 0-15!"

"The vice minister is so cool!" Marui Bunta shouted in support of Rikkai University.

Other spectators exclaimed in amazement: "Awesome! Rikkai actually won the first point of Hyotei's service game! Awesome!"

"As expected, Rikkai University's vice-captain is indeed a national-level talent. Hmm, let me count... the captain, the vice-captain, and just now, Liu-kun... this year, Rikkai University has three national-level talents! And they're all first-year students!"

"However, isn't it a bit too extravagant for Rikkai to put two of its national-level players into doubles?"

Over there, Namikaze, holding his camera, muttered to himself, "This time, or rather, this set, Hyotei is really in trouble. Their myth of shutting out their opponents with a 0-0 score might be coming to an end."

With national-level Genichiro Sanada and the mysterious Akutō Mitsuya, who is probably also national-level (because he is the mentor of Rikkai's third-ranking figure), Hyotei will have a really tough time.

Well, of course, it's just that Hyotei will lose this game, because Inoue Mamoru, as an experienced professional reporter who has watched countless major tournaments, has also seen through Rikkai Ota's horse racing plan.

Therefore, he knew perfectly well that after Rikkai's team lost the previous match, Hyotei would be the ultimate winner of this Kanto Tournament final.

After all, apart from their captain Seiichi Yukimura, all the strong players on Rikkai University's side are in doubles. The remaining team needs to win two singles matches against the top three teams from Hyotei University.

Based on his recent observations of Rikkai University and Hyotei University's tennis team training sessions and interviews during their intra-squad matches, it's absolutely impossible that they're the same team. After all, Rikkai University's training is still within the realm of human capabilities, while Hyotei...

All I can say is that a tennis club that has the money to hire a dedicated, top-notch medical team is truly a monster!

Meanwhile, watching from the sidelines, Kiyosumi Sengoku clenched his fists. Sanada's original move, "Swift as the Wind," was far more powerful than Niou's imitation. If he had been facing Sanada's shot, he definitely wouldn't have been able to receive it!

After all, even if you can hear the sound to determine the ball's location, the ball's bounce speed is far beyond what Niou could achieve. Even compared to Renji Yanagi's Kamaitachi, which is also a national-level move, Sanada's original version of this move is far superior in speed.

He immediately felt a pang of worry for Oshitari and Saito; this match seemed almost unwinnable. Could a miracle possibly happen against such opponents?

The idea was wonderful, but miracles aren't something that happen all the time. Anyway, Rikkai's point was like the beginning. Rikkai started to pull away and leave everyone else in the dust. Whether it was receiving or serving, Rikkai's Genichiro Sanada and Akuto Mitsuya launched a fierce attack. 0-30, 0-40, 2-0, 3-0, Rikkai was far ahead.

"Holy crap! Hyotei not only got broken but also lost 3-0?!"

"Although I really want to write eight hundred words to express this sentiment, well, never mind, I'm just not cultured enough, so I'll just say 'fuck' instead!"

"Could it be that Rikkai is about to rise to prominence this time?!" The other members of the Kanagawa team looked on with anticipation.

Inside the court, Mitsuya Akutō casually held the tennis ball, stood in the service area, looked at the ready-to-fight Yuushi Oshitari and Hideyuki Saito, smiled slightly, pushed up his glasses, and then his gaze moved to Renji Yanagi outside the court, "Watch closely, Renji."

On the field, Yuushi Oshitari gritted his teeth inwardly. Damn it! We're still in the middle of a match! But this bastard's attention is wandering off the field—

Over there, Mitsuya Akutō throws the first pitch, "Bang!"

Yuushi Oshitari looked at the incoming yellow light and thought to himself: Mitsuya Akuto's serve is quite ordinary compared to his return. It's a chance to score!

However, at the moment of swinging the racket, he felt that the feel was so unfamiliar. After the ball left the racket, Yuushi Oshitari saw that the two Rikkai University players on the other side did not move at all. Yuushi Oshitari immediately had a bad feeling. Then, he saw the tennis ball land perfectly on the baseline white line and go past it. It can be said that it perfectly avoided the effective area.

Then, the referee announced "Out of bounds" and "Akuto Mitsuya & Genichiro Sanada score! 15-0!"

How could this be?!

Yuushi Oshitari froze. How could he have hit the ball out of bounds?!

So his feeling that the touch felt unfamiliar wasn't just his imagination?!

He subconsciously glanced at Mitsuya across from him, who was looking back with a smile, as if everything was under control.

Upon seeing this, Kamiya You raised an eyebrow. This was something. It seemed that Mitsuya Akyuto's data torrent was a mental ball technique similar to Yukimura's Five Senses Extinction. It wasn't just limited to predicting the opponent's behavior; it was about using perfect prediction and anticipation to weave one's own ball trajectory, exploiting the opponent's small movements and subtle weaknesses to score points, and then combining this with language to create multiple buffs, putting mental pressure on the opponent and ultimately outputting data to cause the opponent to underperform.

As expected of Renji Yanagi's mentor, Akuto Mitsuya's data tennis is really interesting.

Kamiya You was very interested. Although Mitsuya Akutsu was going to America with his father for a year in his third year of junior high school, according to the plot, he would come back in high school and enter the U17 team, so he could have a match with him then.

Meanwhile, Mitsuya Akuto served again, and this time Saito Shu, who was responsible for receiving the serve, hit the return ball so badly that it didn't even clear the net.

"Akuto Mitsuya & Genichiro Sanada score! 30-0!"

Renji Yanagi, watching from the sidelines, was captivated by the scene unfolding before him. As the person most familiar with Akuto Mitsuya, he could discern the profound mystery contained within each of Akuto Mitsuya's movements.

Moreover, given Akuta's personality, he could have avoided constantly stating his predicted results from the second round onwards and putting pressure on his opponent in this way. However, he did so to demonstrate his ability to generate a flood of data more easily!

Renji Yanagi's eyes were filled with emotion and determination: he would never let down his brother Akuta's efforts!
