The Prince of Tennis: My tennis skills come from Naruto

Chapter 251 Asura Shinto

Upon hearing this, Phoenix of Byodoin was so angry that she laughed instead.

What kind of condescending tone is that?!

Good grief, so this kid thinks he's got him figured out, huh?

Just you wait!

Byodoin Phoenix stroked the tennis ball in his hand a couple of times with an intriguing expression. Then, he raised his hand, and a bright, golden light descended once more. The light was so intense that the goalkeepers on the back courts watching the game subconsciously squinted or turned their heads away.

"Whoosh"

The ball of light soared upwards, and Byodoin Phoenix, having gathered all her strength, focused intently on her goal, assuming a perfect backswing stance. Then, at the most opportune moment, with the most perfect exertion of power, she achieved a synergy greater than the sum of its parts, integrating the power of her waist, arms, and other organs, and channeling it perfectly into the ball of light through the SSS point of the racket's sweet spot. With a resounding "Bang!", the ball of light suddenly burst forth with an extremely dazzling radiance, resembling a miniature sun.

"sough!"

A golden beam of light shot out from the sweet spot of the racket, and the violent gust of wind thinned the surrounding red mist for a moment, heading straight for Kamiya You's service court.

Kamiya You gazed at the beam of light, which was even more powerful than before. He merely raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and the miniature cross-shaped pattern in his left eye spun faster. At this moment, the kaleidoscope-exclusive ability of his left eye, Divine Domain: Absolute Defense, was activated!

Force reduction, energy elimination, trajectory setting.

With that thought, the red mist instantly gathered towards the location of the tennis ball beam, enveloping it completely. Upon seeing this, Kanata Irie pushed up his white round-framed glasses. Here it comes!

Kamiya's move, that bug-level technique, far surpasses the scope of ordinary "professional tennis skills," and can be described as a conceptual ability—a Word of Power!

Saito Itaru quickly estimated the five dimensions in his mind. Hmm, after Kamiya-kun's eyes turned blood red, his mental attributes were greatly enhanced, and it felt like he had reached an immeasurable level like Byodoin.

Mifune Nyudo reached for the spot where he usually kept his sake bottle, only to find it empty. He felt a pang of regret for forgetting it in the instructor's office, then clicked his tongue, thinking to himself:

There's an old saying about people with double pupils, a rare occurrence that happens only once every thousand years. It seems that Kamiya's pupil changes are just as remarkable.

Furthermore, the Yin seal on Kamiya's forehead was extraordinary. Looking at all the U17 training camps and even international professional players, this was the first time he'd ever seen anything like it.

Over there, on the court, a loud "thud" came from the ground. This time, no crater was created in the ground, and the tennis ball didn't explode. In Byodoin Phoenix's frozen smile, the fluorescent yellow tennis ball bounced up as usual, as if he hadn't hit a light shot but just an ordinary serve without any spin. How could this be?!

Byodoin Phoenix watched helplessly as the tennis ball, like a swallow returning to its nest, actively flew into the sweet spot of Kamiya You's racket. Kamiya You and...

Just like last time, he didn't even move an inch. Over there, Kamiya You subtly moved his wrist and then swung his racket.

"Bang!"

Byodoin Phoenix moved swiftly to her position, but with a "whoosh," the fluorescent yellow tennis ball didn't bounce at all; instead, it slid backwards along the ground to the vicinity of the net.

"Kamiya You scores! 15-15!" Mifune Nyudo's score announcement rang out precisely on time.

Meanwhile, Byodoin Phoenix remained frozen in her right-handed stance, her already stiff smile completely flattened.

The spectators off the court, however, were completely oblivious to his complex emotions, and instead exclaimed in admiration of Kamiya You's skills, "The best!"

"What was that?! Gliding along the ground?! How could a tennis ball not bounce?!"

"Hey, hey. Your information is way behind the times. This year, several junior high school students have already made it. Well, including Kamiya-kun, there are three guys who can hit a low serve."

"Amazing! It's hard to imagine what level of rotation that would require!"

"His strength is one thing, but I didn't expect Kamiya-kun to be so skilled too!"

"No? Aren't you focusing on the wrong thing? Shouldn't the focus be on how Kamiya made Byodoin's light-hitting ball effect disappear?!"

"You know, Byodoin-senpai's light serve is so destructive that it can even blow through concrete. Judging from today's match, the power of the first light serve was even stronger than Kamiya-kun's wave serve. It completely destroyed the service court. And I don't think Byodoin-senpai made a mistake on the second serve."

"Me too, the second invention should have been even more powerful than the first, but—"

"No, you don't understand. It's not that I haven't been paying attention; I'm just so shocked that I'm avoiding discussing this issue, especially after racking my brains but still not figuring out the principle behind it."

Meanwhile, some of the players on the first team were watching with amusement, thinking, "Who knows, Byodoin might be going to lose today!" Others were telling Byodoin to stay calm and not be reckless, and to use his strongest moves without hesitation. Otherwise, it would be really unpleasant if their number one high school student ended up losing to a middle school student.

Oni Jujiro had a complicated expression on his face as he looked at the person in the arena who had once defeated him and taken away his position as the number one high school student, a middle school student who had challenged him more than a month ago. He had a lot of feelings in his heart, but he couldn't express them clearly.

Meanwhile, on the court, Byodoin Phoenix, after a few seconds of delay in retracting her backswing, composed herself and changed her service court again.

Hohyou, holding a tennis ball, took a deep breath. He admitted that he had underestimated Kamiya You, the guy who dared to challenge the demons.

That's right. If Kamiya Yo wasn't strong enough, no matter how high his background was, the old man wouldn't make an exception for him, much less allow such an absurd thing to happen in U17.

Byodoin Phoenix raised his eyes and looked at Kamiya Yo with great seriousness. This time, he finally regarded him as an opponent who could pose a great threat to him, similar to Oni Jujiro who had not been defeated by him. Then, a purplish-black light began to shine on his body. The light grew brighter and brighter and eventually condensed into a huge phantom.

It was a skeleton wearing a pirate hat, with eerie blue flames burning in its eye sockets, and a sharp scimitar in its hand.

The skull's mouth was open, as if roaring silently, emanating a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

Then, the skeletal phantom transformed into a beam of light and entered Byodoin Phoenix's body, instantly turning him into a similar skeleton with distinct bones and ghostly fire in his eyes.
