The Prince of Tennis: My tennis skills come from Naruto

The caddie tossed the ball again, and this time Yukimura Seiichi instinctively grabbed it, finally managing to catch the obstructing wisp of air.

call-

Yukimura Seiichi secretly breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, he caught it.

This time, instead of hitting the tennis ball a few times as before, he estimated the height, tossed it once, and then swung the racket directly.

The ball was served and landed in the corresponding service area, but Kamiya You slid and then swung his racket with ease.

"Bang!"

Huang Guang flew at a speed of 180 km/h towards the half of the field where Yukimura Seiichi was located.

But Yukimura Seiichi remained standing still until the ball landed, at which point he ran to the right after hearing the heavy thud, but it was too late; the referee's score announcement came quickly to his ears.

"Kamiya You's score! 0-15!"

"Yukimura-kun,"

Kamiya You pointed his racket diagonally at the ground, the three-tomoe gems slowly rotating in his blood-red pupils. "Can you still play tennis now?"

Yukimura Seiichi paused for a moment before saying frankly, "I don't know, but I'll give it a try."

As he spoke, he calmed his breathing and emotions, then, after another mistake, caught the tennis ball tossed to him by the caddy, and then served with force.

"Bang!"

In the instant he swung his racket, his focus sharpened, his ears perked up, and although he didn't speak and his eyes were unfocused, his entire body language conveyed a powerful cry: "Come on!"

The yellow light tore through the darkness, yet it was still precisely captured by the blood-red pupils.

Kamiya You stared at the tennis ball, a slight smile playing on his lips.

Although we didn't get to see Yukimura Seiichi completely break down, but...

Kamiya You looked at Yukimura Seiichi's tense back and pale fingertips.

This seems more interesting.

While thinking, Kamiya You slid to the left, not forgetting to exert mental pressure.

"Leaving aside returns, just talking about serves, Yukimura-kun, your serve speed has really slowed down a lot compared to before."

As he spoke, the swinging racket tore through the air.

"Bang!"

Yukimura Seiichi's unfocused pupils turned towards the sound source; this time, he attempted to locate the source by sound after Kamiya Yo's swing.

But before he could confirm the exact location, the sound of the tennis ball hitting the ground and the "creaking" sound of it bouncing onto the surrounding nets came almost simultaneously!

"Kamiya You's score! 0-30!"

Yukimura Seiichi's breath hitched, his fingertips unconsciously digging into his palm, yet he felt nothing.

He frantically analyzed the current situation in his mind:

His stamina was nearly exhausted, and his attempt to pinpoint the location of the tennis ball by sound was ineffective.

So far, I haven't been able to catch a single ball...

A feeling of helplessness and bitterness suddenly welled up in his heart.

Sound localization sounds simple, and watching Kamiya Youyo makes it seem even simpler, but trying it myself...

This skill can't be mastered overnight.

And most importantly, even if you could tell where the ball was going to land, you wouldn't have the footwork of Kamiya You, so you wouldn't be able to catch it at all because you're not fast enough and don't have enough time.

Moreover, Yukimura Seiichi had reason to suspect that if he caught another ball from Kamiya Yo, his hearing would be lost.

So even if you finally master the skill of sound localization, it's useless.

Therefore, the only way to break the five senses is to imitate Kamiya You's method and use something like a sixth sense to play.

However, Yukimura Seiichi was very aware that there was still a problem: even if he developed a sixth sense, it would only allow him to keep up with Kamiya You's pace, and prevent him from being directly defeated because of Kamiya You's skills.

Ultimately, however, he was still trapped in Kamiya You's rhythm and had no way to break the deadlock.

So, what can be done to have a chance to turn the tide of the battle?

Using the selfless state he had previously abandoned?

Yukimura Seiichi immediately dismissed the idea as soon as it came to mind.

Reaching the state of selflessness is extremely taxing on physical strength, and he currently has very little energy left.

So even if you activate the state of selflessness, you can only do it for a minute or two at most, but that won't be enough to turn the tide of battle.

After all, he needs to win 6 points, and he hasn't gotten a single point yet...

Yukimura Seiichi calmed down for a moment, and then a silvery-white light shone from his body, with faint ripples spreading outwards.

Yukimura Seiichi ultimately chose to attain the state of selflessness.

The reason is simple: after eliminating irrational emotional factors, he knew that his chances of winning this game were almost zero.

but,

Even if we lose in the end, we should at least take one point from Kamiya You!

After making up his mind, Yukimura Seiichi recalled his promise to Sanada Genichiro, his vow to win the championship, and the thought of avenging Sanada as he looked at him lying in the ambulance.

call--

Looks like I'm going to break my promise this time.

Yukimura Seiichi gave a bitter but resolute smile.

Kamiya Yo, on the other hand, instantly recognized Yukimura Seiichi's technique—the state of "selflessness."

However, he remembered that in the anime, both Yukimura Seiichi and Sanada Genichiro gave up this move because it consumed too much physical strength.

I didn't expect Yukimura Seiichi to restart in this match against him.

But here's the question: with Yukimura's already limited stamina, how many balls can he play after activating Muga?

One goal? Two goals? Or at most three goals?

Therefore, Yukimura's choice to attain the state of selflessness at this time actually accelerated his own defeat.

Kamiya You didn't believe that someone of Yukimura's skill level couldn't understand this.

However, Yukimura Seiichi still chose to open it...

Kamiya You only thought about it for a moment before deducing Yukimura's purpose.

They wanted to forcefully take even a fraction of what he had gained by relying on the strength of their selfless state.

Kamiya Yao tapped his knuckles with his left hand.

The state of selflessness...

To be honest, this was the first opponent he had encountered who had reached the state of selflessness.

Moreover, judging from the current state, Yukimura's state of selflessness is more like the ultimate refinement achieved through countless trials and tribulations.

Only this state of selflessness, which emphasizes bodily instincts such as muscle memory and past experience, can allow a person to serve or return the ball even when the five senses are extinguished.

Over there, Yukimura Seiichi tossed the ball, then focused all his brilliance on one point, and swung his racket with a do-or-die spirit.

The rapidly flashing silver light was disintegrated layer by layer in Kamiya You's blood-red pupils.

So that's where it lands.

Kamiya You took a sliding step to the right, but unexpectedly, the ball grazed the racket.

"Yukimura Seiichi scores! 15-30!"

Kamiya You paused slightly, then a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.

The ball that grazed the rim was still playing in slow motion in his mind.

interesting.

If you rely solely on visual tracking, the swing motion will lag by half a beat.

Looking up at the fading silver light on Yukimura Seiichi:

Tsk,

As expected of Yukimura Seiichi, who is known as the son of God.

He truly possesses the potential to reach the selfless state of being on the path beyond the world.

However, that's all for now.
