I Am Kannagi Shinichi

Myth of a Thousand Unbeaten Battles

Tyrant of the Japanese Tennis World

The Second Legendary Man

Looking at the tennis magazines in his hands, Kannagi Shinichi clutched his head in distress. That's right, the protagonists of the news in these magazines were him.

However, only he knew the truth. He wasn't as strong as the magazines claimed.

But the commotion a few days ago had been too significant, so much so that it had alerted the entire Japanese tennis world.

Kannagi Shinichi had defeated Tono Atsukyo, the ace singles player from Makunoteng Academy and a two-time consecutive national champion, with just one shot.

No one knew that Kannagi Shinichi had no intention of playing fair that day. He launched a surprise attack, unleashing his ultimate move on the very first serve. This ultimate move, moreover, could only be used once a day – Thunderclap Eight Trigrams.

Tono Atsukyo didn't dodge, and so he met his tragic end, becoming the stepping stone for Kannagi Shinichi's fame.

For an elementary school student who hadn't even entered junior high to defeat a top national tennis player with a single shot, it was truly unbelievable.

Thus, all the tennis magazines began searching for Kannagi Shinichi's information.

When they found his details, everyone was shocked.

Three years of playing tennis, 1012 matches with a perfect win record. In every match, his opponents either forfeited or were shaved bald with a 6-0 score. No one had ever managed to win a single game against him.

Kannagi Shinichi's record was truly astonishing, terrifying even.

Some even began to predict:

"Kannagi Shinichi will be the second Echizen Nanjirou. His future may even far surpass that of the legendary samurai."

Only Kannagi Shinichi himself knew that in those thousand-plus matches, there were hardly any true tennis masters. His so-called thousand-match unbeaten record was filled with a lot of "water."

Kannagi Shinichi didn't want so much attention. He just wanted to keep playing matches to improve his combat power.

Looking at the system panel displayed in his mind, Kannagi Shinichi's expression turned troubled again. His five-dimensional stats hadn't improved, and he was still one step away from reaching the national level.

Kannagi Shinichi's real name was Wu Yi. He wasn't from this world. He was once a bright young man living under the Five-star Red Flag. However, a sudden misfortune, an accident, plunged him into darkness.

When he woke up again, he found himself in this world where sports, especially tennis, were revered, and had become the current Kannagi Shinichi.

Unlike other transmigrators, he didn't start out as an orphan.

Kannagi Shinichi's parents were not only alive but his grandparents were also well and healthy.

As for his family environment, it was an ordinary household. They didn't have much money, but they weren't poor either.

They ran a small to medium-sized Takoyaki shop, and the whole family worked there. They lived happily together every day.

Kannagi Shinichi arrived in this Prince of Tennis world three years ago. As a transmigrator, he naturally had a cheat system.

He received a system panel and a transmigration gift package.

The system panel allowed him to view his stats and information. As for the transmigration gift package, it was even more incredible – the template of the ultimate boss from the One Piece world, Emperor Kaido.

When he received this gift package, Kannagi Shinichi was overjoyed. He vowed to transform into a Divine Dragon and rule the world in the future.

As for using Kaido's template to play tennis in the Prince of Tennis world? Impossible, not in this lifetime.

Wouldn't transforming into a Divine Dragon and ruling the world be more satisfying?

Just as Kannagi Shinichi felt he was about to become invincible, the system panel delivered a harsh slap to his face.

The panel indicated that only by continuously playing tennis matches could the template progress be increased.

Therefore, playing tennis in the Prince of Tennis world suddenly seemed appealing to Kannagi Shinichi again.

So, for the past three years, Kannagi Shinichi had desperately participated in various competitions, rarely even attending school. During these three years, he was either competing or on his way to a competition.

He worked so hard in the hope of increasing his template's progress.

However, reality continued to deal him endless blows. The template's progress was simply too slow, so slow it was outrageous.

Kannagi Shinichi opened the system panel in his mind once more:

Kannagi Shinichi

Five-dimensional Stats

Strength: 5 Speed: 1 Stamina: 2 Skill: 1 Spirit: 5

Total Five-Dimensional Stats: 4

Kaido Template Progress: 00001%

Ultimate Skills: Thunderclap Eight Trigrams (Two-handed version unlock rate 00003%), True Thunderclap Eight Trigrams (Complete form unlock rate 00001%), Wind Blade (Locked), Gale Wind (Locked), Thunderclap (Locked), Tornado (Locked), Tornado Gale Wind (Locked), Heat Breath (Locked)...

Three years. He had worked desperately for three years. Apart from the five-dimensional stats, the template progress hadn't moved at all. The ultimate move he knew was still the Thunderclap Eight Trigrams that the system had gifted him at the beginning.

At this rate, let alone Kannagi Shinichi's dream of becoming a Divine Dragon, even fully unlocking Thunderclap Eight Trigrams seems like a distant, hopeless prospect.

He sighed and withdrew the panel in his mind.

He was about to enter junior high, and Kannagi Shinichi didn't know which school to choose. After all, his family wasn't in Tokyo or Kanagawa, but in Nagoya, in the Chubu region.

Although the Chubu region had a national powerhouse like Nagoya Seidoku, which had reached the national quarterfinals for many consecutive years and was a formidable team.

But Kannagi Shinichi didn't like Nagoya Seidoku because the school's tuition was too expensive, and his family couldn't afford it.

"Shinichi-chan, someone's looking for you."

Kannagi Shinichi's mother, Kannagi Rinako, called out from downstairs.

Kannagi Shinichi straightened his clothes and slowly went downstairs, only to see an old man and a foreigner sitting at the reception table of his family's small shop.

As soon as the old man and the foreigner saw Kannagi Shinichi come downstairs, their eyes lit up.

Kannagi Shinichi walked up to them. The two quickly stood up from their seats. The old man spoke first, "Hello, I am the principal of Nagoya Seidoku Academy, Kiyota Yosuke."

"Hello, my name is Dai Weisi. I'm the coach of the Nagoya Seidoku tennis club."

Kannagi Shinichi was surprised for a moment. This foreigner spoke Japanese quite fluently.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

"We've come because we hope that student Kannagi will choose our Nagoya Seidoku Academy for junior high," Kiyota Yosuke stated their purpose.

At this moment, Kannagi Shinichi's family members had all gathered beside him.

As the head of the family, Kannagi Shinichi's father, Kannagi Yutaro, stepped forward. "We're truly sorry, but we know Nagoya Seidoku is a good school, but your tuition is too expensive, and our family might not be able to afford it."

"That's no problem. Nagoya Seidoku Academy is willing to waive all fees for student Kannagi. In the future, our academy is even willing to send him to Germany to study tennis," Kiyota Yosuke, as the principal of Nagoya Seidoku, gave his assurance.

Kannagi Shinichi's relatives exchanged glances. Everyone was tempted. Ever since Kannagi Shinichi showed extraordinary talent in tennis, his family had been very supportive of him pursuing it.

"Don't worry, I'm familiar with many tennis training institutions in Germany. If student Kannagi joins our Nagoya Seidoku, we can guarantee that we will definitely send him to Germany to learn the most advanced tennis techniques." As if sensing the temptation of Kannagi Shinichi's family, Dai Weisi stepped forward to reassure them.

"Shinichi, this is a decision you should make yourself. No matter what you decide, we will support you," Kannagi Yutaro said, patting his son's shoulder.

Kannagi Shinichi looked back at his family members surrounding him. Seeing the supportive look in their eyes, no matter what decision he made, his heart warmed. He smiled at them.

He had made up his mind. He would join Nagoya Seidoku. As long as there were no tuition fees, did liking it even matter?

"Excuse me, is this student Kannagi Shinichi's home?"
