"This ball is mine!"

Hiroaki's fingers just brushed against the rough texture of the basketball.

This is the "blame game" that Miyagi Ryota threw out in his panic.

But if they can take this win, Ryonan can close the gap back to single digits!

"Senior Sendoh!"

The off-road vehicle uses its core strength to forcefully shake itself in mid-air.

The basketball, like an obedient dove, flew towards that absolutely safe spot, Sendoh Akira.

He felt that as long as the ball got into Sendoh's hands, even if Lin Bei was a god, he would still be in serious trouble.

"Ha, dream on."

A sneer, as cold as ice.

Lin Bei's figure suddenly appeared in front of Xian Dao, as fast as a skipped frame of a video.

His eyes now held only the cold glint of a predator.

At the same time, the immortal path also moved.

Two apex predators collided violently in mid-air!

It's a pure clash of talents, neither can gain the upper hand.

On the sidelines, Maki Shinichi couldn't help but sit up straight.

This kind of peak-level combat in Kanagawa made his adrenaline surge every second.

however.

Just as the two figures locked onto each other, and the entire audience held their breath.

A pitch-black shadow, carrying an unreasonable and tyrannical aura, forcefully cleaved its way in!

There was no warning.

There were no tactics.

He's just a crazy troublemaker!

"That's..." Taoka Shigeichi suddenly gripped the tactics board tightly.

It's Rukawa Kaede!

This first-year student, who had been "offline" all along, somehow managed to get to the center of the battlefield.

He ignored his teammates and his opponents.

Now, only a fire burns in those lifeless eyes.

A black flame named "I Am the Only One".

He jumped.

It wasn't a block, it wasn't a rebound.

What he wanted to snatch was the ball that Lin Bei and Xian Dao were fighting over!

"Put the ball..."

A low growl rolled down Rukawa's throat, filled with a chilling ferocity.

"Give me!!"

"Bang!"

A long, slender hand, like a ravenous lone wolf, rushed into the lion and tiger's dining table, forcefully inserting itself between the two.

Robbery!

This is utterly robbery logic!

In the moment of Lin Bei and Xian Dao's astonishment.

With his reckless ruthlessness, Rukawa managed to "tear" the ball from Sendoh's fingertips!

The moment Rukawa landed, the engine roared to full throttle!

"Holy crap?!"

"He even steals the ball from his teammate?!"

"Is this some kind of game or a robbery?!"

Kiyota Nobunaga's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

At this moment, the basketball court is Rukawa Kaede's territory, and everyone else is just a bunch of nobodies blocking his way.

"Stop him!!"

Jun Uozumi roared.

The giant body moved like a mountain, blocking the way, while Fukuda Kichijou on the flank also pounced forward with gritted teeth.

With wolves in front and tigers behind, it's an absolute dead end!

"You sly fox! Watch out!!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi was jumping up and down and cursing on the sidelines, but his eyes were fixed on the court.

Facing two ghosts knocking on the door.

Rukawa Kaede didn't even lift his eyelids.

He didn't slow down.

Instead... he stepped on the gas again!

"court death!"

The fish roared, its giant hand covering the sky and the earth.

One second before the impact.

Rukawa Kaede leaped up, his body shrinking into a black cannonball in mid-air, and crashed head-on into Uozumi.

"Bang!"

The sound of violent collisions of flesh.

Just when everyone thought he was about to be thrown away, Rukawa Kaede mysteriously paused in mid-air for a moment.

His right hand, which had been raised high, was suddenly pulled back, and the basketball drew a rapid arc around his waist before being switched to his left hand.

Extreme pull lever!

Uozumi slammed his large hand into the air.

Rukawa, like a slippery black mamba, slipped through the gap between Uozumi and Fukuda, deftly flicking them with his left hand.

Swish.

The basketball bounced off the backboard and went into the net.

65: 56.

Landing.

Rukawa Kaede didn't look at the basket, didn't look at Uozumi lying on the ground, and didn't even pay attention to the gasps from the crowd.

He turned around, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his chin, and fixed his gaze on Lin Bei and Xian Dao not far away.

There was no longer any confusion in his eyes, only greed after tasting blood.

"I'm not just going to take down that broom-headed guy."

"And you..."

Rukawa Kaede's voice was as cold as ice shards.

The entire venue fell silent for three seconds.

The commentator, as if a duck had just been choked, let go and screamed in a piercing voice:

"It's...it's in!!"

"A high-difficulty layup under double-team pressure!"

"Has this kid gone mad?!"

"He just snatched the ball from Sendoh and Lin Bei!"

In the stands, Mu Shenyi frowned, but a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"Did the 'self' awaken in despair?"

"No more cooperation, no more tactical thinking, treating the court like a hunting ground..."

"Although he's a lone wolf, this is indeed Rukawa Kaede's strongest evolution."

Coach Anzai's glasses reflected the light, and a signature kind smile graced his lips.

"Hehehe... The sleeping fox has finally started grinding its teeth."

……

On the field.

Sendoh stared at Rukawa's aggressive back.

He was taken aback at first, then burst out laughing.

"Oh dear..."

He scratched his head, his tone revealing no hint of annoyance, but rather an excitement.

"Looks like another formidable monster has emerged."

He turned to look at Lin Bei beside him, his eyes burning with intensity:

"Lin Bei, it seems you've kicked the switch off this kid."

"These so-called 'geniuses' are being forced by you to evolve like crazy."

"That's terrifying."

Despite saying it was terrifying, Sendoh's body honestly assumed an attack stance.

A tripartite balance of power.

Originally a battle between two powerful forces.

With Rukawa Kaede's arrival, the situation instantly turned into an even more dangerous three-way struggle.

Lin Bei stood still.

Looking at Rukawa's provocative gaze, he glanced at Sendoh, who was brimming with fighting spirit.

Sudden.

He smiled.

It was an extremely irritating and arrogant smile, yet one radiating absolute confidence.

"Oh."

Lin Bei reached out and tidied his slightly messy bangs, his eyes gradually becoming indifferent, as if he were standing on a cloud looking down at a group of ants.

"Breaking through personal limitations?"

"Awakening? Monster?"

He shook his head, his tone full of mockery.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken about something?"

Lin Bei slowly raised his eyelids.

Those eyes, which were originally languid, now faintly shimmered with a bluish light.

That was the eye color of a wild beast.

"I learned a few basic skills, imitated a few moves, and even just found a trace of wildness..."

"You think you can keep up with me?"

The moment the words fell.

A cold, mechanical voice suddenly exploded in Lin Bei's mind!
