The Prince of Tennis: My tennis skills come from Naruto

Chapter 248 Kamiya You vs. Byodoin Phoenix

Twenty-nine minutes later, at the Japanese U17 training camp, in the empty stadium that had been temporarily cleared out, a helicopter slowly landed, the wind stirring up dust and creating ripples.

"They're here!"

Unusually not staying at the back mountain, Mifune Nyudo watched the footage on the monitor. A glint of shrewdness flashed in his slightly cloudy eyes. He casually wiped the sake stains from his lips, slammed the sake bottle on the table, and said, "Let's go!"

Kurobe Yukio put down his teacup and quickly followed, while Takumi Ryuji also packed up his woodworking textbook and chased after them. Saito Itsuki, who was lagging behind, glanced at the surveillance camera last, and smiled as he walked out, "Well, the show is about to begin."

Over there, the helicopter came to a stop, the roar of the rotors gradually subsided, and then the cabin door opened. Kamiya You stepped off the helicopter unhurriedly, and what came into view was a burly man with red hair.

With short, dark red hair, a height of 187 cm, and a noticeable scar on his face, he looked strangely weathered, even though he was a high school student. "Ghost."

Kamiya You recognized the person in a second and mentally commented that he was indeed a bit unattractive, a true "older teenager".

Over there, Oni Jujiro scratched his head, his deep voice ringing out, "Sorry, Kamiya-kun, today's challenge—"

Before he could finish speaking, Kamiya You waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, lead the way."

"The Byodoin who killed you will surely be a very interesting opponent." Kamiya You revealed a sincere smile.

Anyway, the story goes that while Oni Jujiro can run away from the monk, he can't run away from the temple. Yeah, that's the gist of it.

Anyway, even if we can't fight him this time, we can wait until he defeats Byodoin and becomes the No. 1 in the expeditionary force, and then have a fight with the demon.

Yeah, then it won't just be ghosts anymore, but also Kimishima, Ochi-senpai, and so on. We'll take them all down several times over.

Upon hearing this, Oni Jujiro paused, his right hand pausing. He hadn't expected Kamiya-kun to already know about the change in their expeditionary force's number one commander.

But thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising. After all, they are chaebols, so it's normal for them to have a lot of power.

Even this place, known as the mecca of Japanese youth tennis, cannot escape the influence of conglomerates. After all, operating a base is expensive, and their expeditionary force's trips involve costly airfares and hotels.

Moreover, Oni Jujiro recalled that the batch of equipment that had recently appeared in the base seemed to have been donated by the Kamiya Zaibatsu.

Yes, their expeditionary force's exclusive barracks were renovated before, which, although not explicitly stated, was very likely the work of the Kamiya Zaibatsu.

After all, the last time the dormitory was renovated was the last time, or rather, it had never been renovated since the dormitory was built. Now that it is being renovated suddenly, it is hard not to think of Kamiya-kun, who will soon be entering the U17 team and will obviously be a new member of the expeditionary force.

While Oni Jujiro's mind raced with a myriad of thoughts, he remained remarkably swift in reality, leading the way.

Soon, the two arrived at Field 2. Well, it was number 2 because the crater that Byodoin had created on Field 1 yesterday hadn't been repaired yet. Field 2 was already surrounded by members of the First Army, as well as goalkeepers from other numbered fields, and...

Coaches Yukio Bebu, Itaru Saito, and Ryuji Takumi.

Kamiya You glanced around and saw Irie Kanata and Ochi Gekko among them. They nodded slightly to him as he looked over. (Ochi Gekko was a special guest.)

As for Mifune Nyudo?

He himself was sitting high in the referee's chair, serving as the referee for this match.

As they watched the two approaching, especially Kamiya You behind Oni Jujiro, whispers began to circulate. "Is he a middle school student? And judging by his height, he's probably only in the second year of middle school, no more."

"So this is a new recruit this year? Just one? And a middle school student?!"

"Are you kidding me? A middle school student in the U17 training camp?! Does the coach think he's better than most high school students?!"

"But isn't this process wrong? Shouldn't new recruits start by challenging and advancing through the final arena? Why did he come directly with the Demon King?!"

"Those who can watch this match are all top players from various stadiums, as well as veterans from the first team. What makes this kid think he can compete?!"

Those who already knew the inside story of the match said, "That kid really seems extraordinary; even in his normal state, he exudes a sense of pressure."

"It's hard to imagine that those bug-level abilities belong to a middle school student."

Amidst the intense scrutiny of the crowd, Oni Jujiro remained off the field, while Kamiya Yo calmly walked onto the field.

"??!"

"no?!"

"Waitamoment?!"

"How did this brat get in there?! So you're not telling me this brat is fighting Byodoin-senpai, are you?!"

Some people were bewildered, and some even started to speculate wildly, "Even if they wanted to intimidate the newcomers, wasn't it a bit much to have Byodoin-kun do it?!"

At this moment, Yukio Kurobe finally spoke up, "Watch the next match carefully and learn from it."

"The winner of this match will be the new master of the training camp."

A dozen or so people: ? ? ?

Meanwhile, on the court, "Kid, which?" Byodoin Phoenix sized up Kamiya You for several seconds before pointing his racket at the ground and asking.

Kamiya Youya glanced at Byodoin Houou, who had blond hair, a white headband, and a thick beard around his chin. His appearance was second only to that of a demon. Then he randomly chose one and said, "Rough."

Upon hearing this, Byodoin Phoenix threw it with a rather crude motion, making a "shh shh shh" sound.

The racket, released from his hand, immediately began to spin on the ground like a top, with a "thud".

When the racket finally falls, the mark on the handle is an inverted A.

"Well," Kamiya You smiled, "it seems you didn't seize this great opportunity, Byodoin."

"It's my serve." With that, Kamiya You walked towards the baseline.

Byodoin Phoenix snorted, "It's just a service game, don't get too cocky, kid."

"Need time to warm up, kid?"

Kamiya You didn't even turn his head, but simply waved his hand in mid-air, "No need."

At his current level, his control over his muscles has reached a certain level, and his physique is strong enough that warming up is no longer a necessity.

The two then took their positions, and then Mifune Nyudo's distinctive voice rang out, "I declare! The match begins! This match is between Kamiya You and Byodoin Houou! End of game!"

"It's Kamiya You's serve now!"

Kamiya You stood in the service court, tossed the tennis ball thrown from the sidelines twice, and then calmly uttered four words, "Yin Seal - Release!"
