Juri Ueno from Kuroko's Basketball

"We, Shirin, will definitely defeat your Tokyo University!"

Us?

Kagami has grown even more. His gaze shifted, and Ueno looked towards the distant, blazing sun.

Kagami is almost completely integrated into Shiro Rin now. When he is completely integrated into Shiro Rin, that will be the time for him to push open that door.

Tomorrow's match looks like it might really be a tough battle.

...............

night.

University of Tokyo, basketball court.

Looking at the Ueno players sitting cross-legged on the ground, Coach Shinhe found a tactical blackboard from somewhere. There were five white pieces and five black pieces on it, facing each other. He tapped the blackboard lightly and said with a serious expression.

"Tomorrow our opponent is Seirin High School. I hope everyone won't underestimate this school... You know..."

As everyone watched Coach Shinkawa introduce Shirakawa of Shirakawa High School, their expressions became serious and solemn.

Unlike Yamanaka High School, Coach Shinkawa didn't make such a big fuss or set up any tactics when playing against them.

However, Coach Shinha was also a little unsure about tomorrow's match against Seirin.

The main reason is that the potential of Seirin High School is somewhat beyond his reach.

Especially when he discovered that the other party had defeated Kaijo High School in a friendly match, he knew that he had truly met his match this time.

Just as Coach Xinhe was arranging tactics for tomorrow's game, a voice suddenly rang out at the entrance of the basketball court.

"Pshaw, is this what the basketball courts at Tokyo University look like?"

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned and looked behind them.

"Who is this guy?"

"This guy is so arrogant!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, everyone frowned and their expressions turned unfriendly.

Ueno, however, looked shocked and surprised.

The person who came was Haizaki, although he had several band-aids stuck to his face at the moment, but even so, his expression was still arrogant.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Coach Xinhe's face darkened as he spoke.

"who are you?"

"Who am I? Let that guy say it."

Looking at Coach Shinkawa who was questioning him, Haizaki walked slowly to the side with his hands in his pockets, picked up a basketball from the bamboo basket, looked at Ueno, and sneered.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the Higashi University couldn't help but look curiously towards Ueno.

"Ueno?"

"Coach Xinhe, this guy's name is Haizaki Shogo, and I have a game with him."

Ueno stood up and bowed to Coach Shinkawa. Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, he explained.

Upon hearing this, Coach Shinkawa glanced at Haizaki a few more times, then nodded to Ueno, though his face remained dark.

Seeing Coach Shinkawa nod, Ueno turned and looked at Haizaki, who was sneering at him.

Do you want to play against me now?

Just as Ueno finished speaking, Haizaki's gaze turned cold, and he suddenly swung the basketball at Ueno with his right hand.

Seeing the basketball hurtling towards him, Ueno's gaze sharpened, and he caught the ball. Feeling the slight numbness in his hand, his expression darkened, and he looked at Haizaki and spoke.

"It seems your injury has healed."

Ueno was quite surprised by Haizaki's sudden visit.

Or perhaps it was something we never expected.

He expected it to be after he finished fighting Shiro Rin, but Haizaki was acting unpredictably.

After all, there are no more than four hours until the scheduled match this afternoon.

It's only around seven o'clock now.

Moreover, the other party even came to his school.

But that’s fine too.

His gaze turned cold, and Haizaki looked at Ueno with a sneer, saying, "Dealing with you is more than enough."

With that, Haizaki took off his jacket and threw it aside, then walked towards the basketball court.

He also inquired about Tokyo University before coming.

It turns out that there's such a strong person at Tokyo University, someone who can rival Aomine Daiki.

It's worth noting that he had fought Aomine before, but he simply hadn't won.

This piqued his interest in Ueno, and he rushed over even though his injuries hadn't healed.

And so, the scene we see today came about.

Seeing Haizaki's actions, Ueno remained silent, took off his jacket and handed it to Kurumatani Sora for safekeeping, then walked towards Haizaki with the basketball tucked under his right hand.

The people of Higashi looked at the guy confronting Ueno, and some of them didn't recognize him.

However, the other party seems to be very powerful.

Kamijou looked at Haizaki's face with some curiosity, then at Ueno, and asked in surprise.

"Did that guy get beaten up by Ueno?"

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously glanced at the injuries on Ueno and Haizaki's faces, their gazes filled with complex emotions.

On the basketball court.

With a cold gaze fixed on Ueno, Haizaki immediately shifted to a defensive stance.

"Three balls, you can go first."

Looking at Haizaki spreading out his defense, Ueno's gaze was calm as still water, his right hand slightly rotating the basketball.

"The loser has to grant the winner one request, you should remember that, right?"

Upon hearing this, Haizaki was taken aback for a moment, then burst into wild laughter.

"Hahaha, you don't actually think you can beat me, do you?"

After laughing a few times, Haizaki looked at Ueno, whose face remained calm, and a hint of madness flashed in his eyes. He nodded and sneered.

"it is good!"

Chapter 41 Come Join My Basketball Team

Looking at Haizaki's defense and seeing his arrogant demeanor, Ueno decided to teach him a lesson.

Three balls.

He can beat his opponent to the point of questioning their existence with absolute certainty.

Of course, if they don't open the zone, the match between him and his opponent is about even.

However, he has more than just a ZONE.

Taking a deep breath, Ueno dribbled the basketball with his right hand, a flash of crimson light passing through his eyes.

With his right foot stepping out to Haizaki's left, Ueno also leaned his body towards Haizaki's left.

Looking at Ueno, who was trying to break through from his left, Haizaki was slightly puzzled. Was he testing him?

Despite his confusion, he still stepped forward to block the opponent, his eyes fixed on the basketball in Ueno's hands.

Seeing Haizaki following his movements, Ueno suddenly stopped, stepped back to create distance between himself and Haizaki, and without hesitation, jumped up and attacked.

"Shh!"

A crisp sound rang out amidst Haizaki's somewhat unpleasant expression!

Turning around to look behind him, Haizaki saw the basketball lying to the side and a sense of unease began to creep into his heart.

Ueno picked up the basketball and tossed it to Haizaki, then called out to him, "Your turn."

As he spoke, he slowly lowered his body and adopted a defensive stance.

Taking the basketball, Haizaki looked at Ueno, who had spread out to defend, and recalled Ueno's earlier move. He couldn't help but think of someone and sneered, "Your style is very similar to someone else's."

Upon hearing this, Ueno knew what the other person was talking about, but he subconsciously frowned slightly and remained silent.

Seeing that Ueno did not answer him, Haizaki stopped talking and carefully observed Ueno's defensive movements for a moment.

As he dribbled the basketball, Haizaki's gaze turned icy.

He wasn't particularly fond of basketball.

However, he dislikes losing even more than basketball.
