The Prince of Tennis: My tennis skills come from Naruto

Yuushi Oshitari deeply believed that Mori's mentality shouldn't be that bad, since he dared to challenge the captain after learning about his deeds (even if it was just the fact that he single-handedly took on the entire tennis club).

So why did he close his eyes?!

Yuushi Oshitari was momentarily filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Meanwhile, in the stands, Jiro Akutagawa scratched his brown hair, his gaze involuntarily drifting towards Jusaburo Mori.

Ok?

Why did he sense such a familiar aura?

Jiro Akutagawa moved down a few levels from the higher stands, then looked intently:

Mori-senpai's body looks so relaxed, and his breathing is definitely very even.

Hmm...it actually sounds a bit like snoring.

"Aha!" Jiro Akutagawa slapped his thigh. "I get it!"

Mori-senpai is the kind of person who dares to challenge the department head, so it's impossible that he would suddenly fall asleep while fighting Oshitari. That can only mean...

"Mori-senpai was playing basketball while he was asleep!"

At this point, his eyes suddenly brightened.

Wow, Mori-senpai is amazing!

"hafnium?!"

Upon hearing Akutagawa Jiro's conclusion, the people around him displayed a range of expressions, some genuine and some feigning.

Jiro Akutagawa didn't offer an explanation; he thought with a touch of envy:

He also loves to sleep, but he can't play tennis while sleeping like his senior Mori.

Ok,

After the ranking matches are over, I must find an opportunity to ask Mori-senpai for the amazing skill of playing ball while sleeping!

Jiro Akutagawa clenched his fist excitedly.

Meanwhile, Keigo Atobe, who was also off the field, noticed something unusual about Jusaburo Mori. A hint of inquisitiveness flashed in his deep blue eyes. Could this be Jusaburo Mori's national-level move?

However, compared to Atobe's Ice World, it's far inferior in terms of visual effects; at least, we haven't seen any special effects yet.

It's far inferior to something like Kamiya's, which has both visual and practical effects.

At that moment, the yellow beam of light had already struck the right sideline of the inverted triangle corresponding to Jusaburo Mori's half of the court, and drew a high, semi-elliptical arc to the left in the air.

On the other side, Mori Jusaburo, who had indeed entered a "sleeping" state, successfully predicted the direction of the spinning ball the moment Oshitari Yuushi swung his racket, took a few quick cross steps to get into position in advance, and then swung his racket.

"Bang!"

The fluorescent yellow tennis ball was sliced ​​towards Yuushi Oshitari's left baseline.

Yuushi Oshitari chased after it quickly, but he was a full body length behind, and the tennis ball bounced out of bounds.

"Mori Jusaburo scores! 0-15!"

"Holy crap! You can return a shot with your eyes closed?! That feels even harder than Captain Kamiya returning a shot with a racket strung with two strings!"

A second-year student with a scar on his chin sighed.

"Indeed, indeed." Another third-year member nodded in agreement.

"Hmph, it's just a blind retort, what's the big deal?" a first-year student immediately retorted. "Captain Kamiya could do that too! And what he did was even more unbelievable!"

His words immediately drew curious glances from those around him. "Tell me more about it?"

The first-year student gave him a "you guys are hopeless" look. "When the captain first became captain, didn't you guys even bother to search for information about him?"

He glanced around, puffed out his chest slightly, raised his voice, and began to recount the deeds of Kamiya You.

"During the Jr. Tournament's elementary school finals, the captain's five senses were sealed by Yukimura Seiichi, but even though the captain lost touch, sight, hearing, smell, and taste, he still won that match!"

A collective gasp filled the air. Complete loss of all five senses? Yet they still won?!

"In that case, the minister is indeed more capable!"

"No, this isn't just impressive, it's practically inhuman! After all, I don't think even professional-level superhuman beings could necessarily play basketball after losing all five senses."

"..."

Atobe Keigo first compared Mori Jusaburo's behavior before and after he fell asleep.

We discovered that his current score is much higher, but he's still a few tenths away from the national level.

However, Kamiya said that this profit margin is nationwide, so it seems that there is something hidden about this profit margin.

but……

Keigo Atobe recalled Jusaburo Mori's immediate movement right after Yuushi Oshitari swung his racket.

Turning his head, he said to Kamiya You, "Kamiya, Mori's move is very similar to your prediction."

Kamiya You nodded. "Yes, the effects are indeed about the same."

Although the principles are completely different

Because Mori Jusaburo's prediction was based on a period of time he spent gathering information about his opponent.

Then, by relying on his subconscious to trigger a kind of intuition similar to a "sixth sense," he can "instantly identify" the type and general direction of the opponent's upcoming shot, achieving seemingly unbelievable predictions.

So the flaws are still quite significant.

If you block his access to external information or use skills that are not relevant to his information, his subconscious will be confused, and his predictions will fail once his sixth sense is disconnected.

On the court, Yuushi Oshitari gripped the handle of his racket tightly with his right hand, hastily wiping the sweat from his face with the wristband on his left wrist.

call--

Unexpectedly, after Mori-senpai closed his eyes and entered this special state, which, according to Akutagawa from the sidelines, might be a sleep state, it was as if some kind of limiter was unlocked, and his return speed increased by a whole level!

Moreover, that kind of preemptive anticipation makes it seem as if your own shot becomes completely transparent to him...

Yuushi Oshitari adjusted his mindset and served again, this time with a low bounce and left-side spin.

"Bang!"

The ball had barely left his racket when Yuushi Oshitari rushed to the net.

"Clang"

The ball bounced off the ground and turned inward at high speed, with the bounce height only reaching slightly above Mori Jusaburo's ankle.

Despite being in a state of instantaneous anticipation, Mori Jusaburo still received the ball accurately, but due to the strong spin and extremely low amplitude, he hit a high lob.

Seeing this, Yuushi Oshitari's lips curled slightly, he leaped up, and then smashed the ball down fiercely!

"Bang!"

The yellow beam of light struck the ground at high speed and then reflected off.

But suddenly a racket appeared in the path of the reflected yellow light.

It turns out that Mori Jusaburo had anticipated Oshitari Yuushi's spike, so the moment he lobbed the ball high, he turned sideways and rushed towards the midfield, waiting for his prey to strike.

"despair!"

With a deft deflection, the tennis ball flew directly into Yuushi Oshitari's defensive gap.

"Mori Jusaburo scores! 0-30!"

Yuushi Oshitari took a deep breath. He couldn't even score with a spike...

Senior Mori's prediction was way too far off the mark!
