Crossover Anime: Transmigrated as Sasuke, but Must Start from Prince of Tennis

Over the weekend, Rikkai University's car arrived at Atobe's villa in Karuizawa.

Yukimura Seiichi was the first to get out of the car and greeted the regulars of Hyotei who were jogging in the yard.

But because his smile was so intense, only Atobe and Sasuke from Hyotei stopped, while the others gave an awkward smile and ran away quickly.

Although this was the second training camp, it was common for the regular Hyotei team to train with Atobe, and Yukimura and Sanada would occasionally come over and run into them.

Occasionally, he would find someone to play tennis with, but Sanada would always keep an eye on Atobe, while the others would be called upon by Yukimura, who was itching to play, and once they were on the court, they would simply get beaten.

Moreover, they were all beaten by Yukimura Seiichi using the simplest fighting methods, leaving them with no chance to fight back.

"It seems like nobody really likes me..."

Seeing that the group of people were running faster than before, Yukimura Seiichi's smile deepened, successfully causing the Rikkai University regulars to quietly retreat a distance.

As regulars on Rikkai University's varsity team, they knew all too well how ruthless their captain was, so whenever they saw Yukimura smiling like that, it meant someone was about to be in trouble.

"Go put your things down first, change your clothes and rest for a while. Seigaku is already on their way."

Atobe had become somewhat immune to Yukimura's smile. He beckoned the butler over and arranged for the Rikkai students to stay in their rooms.

As for Sanada, who looked displeased...

He'll ignore it for now; he's determined not to be that guy's sparring partner again this time.

"Let's go, get dressed and come out to run with us."

Yukimura led the way into the villa with the butler. When they reached the villa's entrance, he glanced back at Sasuke and decided it was necessary to change his clothes and then talk to him.

Seishun Academy...

He knew that Tezuka Kunimitsu was very strong, but that shouldn't be the reason why Seigaku was brought to the training camp. What could it be?

What is there for a school that didn't even make it to the Kanto Tournament to care about?

After everyone from Rikkai University left, Seigaku's car arrived.

This time, not all of Seigaku's regulars came. Apart from Captain Yamato Yuta, who had a relapse of his old injury, it was just Tezuka and the other first-year students.

"Sasuke, we're here! Your place is huge, meow~"

Kikumaru Eiji jumped out of the car and was about to pounce on Sasuke when a hand appeared behind him and quickly grabbed his collar.

"I'm sorry, Eiji likes Sasuke too much. I apologize for my rudeness earlier."

Fuji Syusuke smiled gently as he pressed Kikumaru Eiji's neck to keep him quiet.

He had been to Hyotei before and knew how afraid Hyotei's regular players were of being poached. If Eiji were to pounce on them at this moment, it would be too late to save them later.

"I'm sorry to bother you all!"

Tezuka Kunimitsu followed him out of the car, extended his hand to Atobe, and the two department heads shook hands formally.

Next to get off the train were Shuichiro Oishi, Sadaharu Inui, and Takashi Kawamura.

The current captain of Seigaku, Yuta Yamato, was the first to get off the bus, but now he stood to the side looking slightly embarrassed.

Regardless of whether they are regular members or not, it seems that all the first-year students know the people from Hyotei.

On the contrary, he, the minister, was completely ignored, whether it was previous contact or current greetings.

"Go put down your luggage first. We'll have a training session in half an hour. Rikkai University has almost finished packing, so you guys need to hurry up too."

Sasuke looked at Fuji Syusuke's expression, shook his head without saying anything, and gestured to the servants beside him to take them to their respective guest rooms for the night.

"Sasuke, the captain of Seigaku, looks at Tezuka with a strange gaze, like admiration, but also something else..."

After everyone had been taken away, Atobe turned to Sasuke and told him about what he had noticed after the Seigaku group got off the bus.

"If next year, a junior who's absolutely better than you suddenly joins the tennis club, even though he's nominally the vice-captain, he could bypass you and handle everything directly..."

Sasuke's gaze fell upon the Hyotei regulars who were still running laps. He could clearly see what Atobe was saying.

He also knew how it happened, but there were some things he couldn't say directly.

"Hyotei doesn't need a vice-captain. If I try my best and still get crushed, then just give him the position directly. What's the big deal..."

Keigo Atobe has always believed that the strong should be treated like the strong.

He didn't think there was anything to worry about in this matter.

If Sasuke were to ask for the position of department head now, Atobe wouldn't hesitate for a second, because his personal strength is undeniable, and the weaker one should yield.

"The Seishun Academy tennis club is different. Unless they can eliminate all obstacles from the very beginning like Rikkai University did, its essence will never change..."

Yukimura Seiichi walked over and, when talking about Seigaku, genuinely felt it was a bit of a pity.

Because of Tezuka Kunimitsu, and because Sanada was more concerned about Tezuka after losing twice in a row, Yukimura Seiichi had been paying close attention to Seigaku.

Since they were concerned, Liu Lian'er would go and gather information, so Liu and Qian, those two childhood friends, made contact in advance.

After that, things became much simpler. As long as it didn't involve personal data from the tennis club, Inui Sadaharu rarely hid anything.

Especially after Inui Sadaharu shared the tennis club's attitude towards first-year students with Yanagi Renji, the two had more and more to talk about and became more motivated to reform the tennis club.

Unfortunately, Seigaku is not Rikkai University, and the reforms that Renji Yanagi was able to carry out smoothly were thwarted before they even began at Seigaku.

"What an unglamorous place... Yukimura, this time I'm going to fight you. Don't let that Sanada guy step in again. He always says Tezuka is amazing, and this time we've already brought him here..."

Atobe wasn't very interested in Seigaku to begin with, and now that Yukimura said the same thing, he was even less willing to talk about the Seigaku tennis club.

He had wanted to fight Yukimura several times before, but each time he ended up pushing Sanada forward. This time he was determined to fight Yukimura and would not let the opportunity slip away again!

"Does Sasuke think this is a good idea?"

Yukimura almost couldn't keep up his smile, and he raised an eyebrow as he looked at Sasuke.

Whether or not he can fight Atobe depends on Sasuke's opinion.

He dared not act directly; what if he accidentally crippled Hyotei's captain?

Given their respective identities, they have to be serious when they're on stage, so there's a high chance they'll use the Annihilation of the Five Senses technique...

It would be very troublesome if it caused psychological harm to the captain of Hyotei.

"Okay, fight seriously. It would be even better if Atobe could just lie down after the fight."

Sasuke nodded without hesitation and even told Yukimura to be ruthless.

"..."

Atobe, who was listening nearby, almost popped his eyes out.

Why does Sasuke seem to be in a bad mood?

He hasn't done anything recently, so why is Sasuke suddenly so ruthless?

He just wanted to have a private match with Yukimura; he didn't intend to deliberately experience the annihilation of the five senses...

Chapter 72: Rivals and Friends Are Not Mutually Exclusive

"Yukimura serves..."

After a short rest, the match between Atobe and Yukimura began.

Shinobu sat on the referee's bench once again, looking at Atobe and Yukimura with a sense that their personal grudges were more or less involved in the match.

"Atobe, since this is such a rare opportunity, I won't hold back!"

Yukimura Seiichi bent his knees and leaned back, then swung his racket to serve.

Previously, he could only bully the other members of the Hyotei Tennis Club, but this time he can finally target their captain.

When it comes to personal grudges, he would never admit that it was because Sanada was bullied too badly that he deliberately sought revenge.

But how could he not be angry that his good friend and vice-captain had been repeatedly given a score of 0 by Atobe in front of Hyotei's regulars?

Although he knew it was all because Sanada wasn't strong enough, he knew he had to protect his family members who needed to train again after returning home, especially in front of outsiders.

"It's certainly good, but if you think that's all you need, you're being naive!"

Atobe retaliated without backing down, his eyes also filled with displeasure.

It was bad enough that Sanada had chosen him as a sparring partner, but he also kept watching this guy try to poach Sasuke's girlfriend.

Knowing it was impossible, they still asked Sasuke repeatedly in front of the members of Hyotei Tennis Club if it was possible for him to go to Rikkai University. Did they really think Hyotei was easy to bully?

"I thought they were friends..."

Fuji Syusuke walked over to Sasuke's side with his racket, and they stood together watching the match on the court.

It's impossible to say there was no grudge between those two, given the look they gave each other besides the tennis match.

"They are friends, but their way of communicating is a little different from others."

Sasuke watched the two men, whose fighting spirit was growing stronger. He said they were friends, but he knew what their true nature was. However, this wouldn't stop him from continuing to watch the show.

He had thought about having Yukimura help Atobe hone his mental strength before, but because Sanada was too persistent, he rarely had such an opportunity before.

"It seems I still don't understand the word 'friend' very well."

Fuji Syusuke smiled gently, glanced at Sasuke's expression to make sure that the word 'friend' in his words had no other meaning, and then continued to look at the match, which was still evenly matched.

"There are indeed many kinds of friends, such as Tezuka and Genichiro..."

Sasuke's expression was very serious, but the two people he mentioned made everyone around him feel that this was no joke at all.

The two people being mentioned now are standing in the crowd.

There were several people between the two, yet the tension in their eyes was no less than that between the two on the field.

With that look in their eyes, it wouldn't be surprising if a fight broke out the next second.

But the few people in the know are well aware that they really are friends.

"That's really true. But Sasuke, you actually called Sanada by his name directly. You two seem to have a pretty good relationship."

Fuji Syusuke is in the know, but his current focus is on the issue of how Sasuke should be addressed.

Even Atobe is addressed by his surname, so why are Yukimura and Sanada addressed differently?

Is there some unknown secret behind this?

"It's like this on our first meeting, what does it matter?"
