Akashi Seijuro stood still.

Those heterochromatic eyes, which were said to be able to see everything on the court, were now staring intently at Lin Bei.

In his view, Lin Bei's relaxed and casual posture was like an unsolvable jumble of codes.

No matter how the Emperor's Eye analyzes muscle direction and bone angles, it cannot piece together a prediction of the next movement.

"It's impossible to predict..." Akashi's Adam's apple bobbed, and his brows furrowed deeply.

This completely violates the mechanics of basketball!

But the pride and boredom in his heart were completely torn apart.

A rare surge of excitement welled up in my veins.

"That's interesting, that's really fun."

Akashi chuckled softly, his eyes filled with madness. "A future beyond prediction? In that case..."

"Beep—!"

The referee's whistle suddenly blew, directly interrupting the standoff on the field.

"Teiko Middle School requests a replacement!"

Ryota Kise looked resentful.

He was seething with anger, gritting his teeth as he glared at his captain:

"Akashi, I was careless just now, please give me another chance!"

"That's awful, Kise."

Akashi's eyes were icy, and he shut him up with a single sentence.

"Go and rest. Kuroko, your warm-up is over."

On the sidelines, a boy with light blue hair, whose presence was ridiculously faint, silently took off his pure white jacket.

Tetsuya Kuroko stepped onto the court with a blank expression.

As Lin Bei looked at his thin back, Hei Zi's warning from earlier immediately popped into his mind.

The game resumed, and the Emperor Light team gained possession.

Akashi controlled the ball on the outside, and facing Lin Bei's defense, he no longer tried to fight against the Emperor's Eye.

Instead, his eyes flashed, and he subtly flicked his wrist to the side.

The basketball flew like a blur, heading straight for the empty corner on the wing.

"Was it a mistake? No, that can't be!"

Sakuragi Hanamichi stood near the free-throw line, his legs slightly bent, ready to intercept.

But just as he started, he caught a glimpse of a pale blue shadow out of the corner of his eye.

Tetsuya Kuroko!

He appeared as if he had appeared out of thin air, silently blocking Shohoku's defensive blind spot.

"What the hell?! When did we get there?!" Sakura's skin went numb.

The body instinctively wanted to provide backup.

Kuroko didn't even glance at Sakuragi.

His cool gaze was fixed on the basket, his tone as calm as still water:

"You've focused your defense in the wrong place."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Zi pulled his right hand back and pushed his palm out forcefully.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud, like a balloon being forcibly popped, echoed across the stadium.

Speed ​​up the pass!

The moment the basketball touched Kuroko's palm, its trajectory was abruptly altered, and its speed instantly doubled!

An orange blur whizzed past Sakuragi Hanamichi's ear, the strong wind ruffling his hair.

"So fast!" Sakuragi's legs felt like they were filled with lead, and he couldn't react at all.

Inside the Shohoku restricted area, Murasakibara Atsushi's massive body had already risen from the ground.

That powerful pass landed precisely into his outstretched hand.

"I'll crush you!"

Murasakibara Atsushi let out a beast-like roar, his terrifying strength carrying the basketball, ignoring Akagi Takenori's raised arms.

He slammed the ball into the basket, even over the Shohoku captain!

"Clang—!!"

The rim groaned in agony, and the entire basketball hoop shook violently, on the verge of falling apart.

The referee shouted:

"Goal stands!"

"18:10!"

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence, followed by a tsunami of gasps.

On the Shohoku bench, Coach Anzai suddenly opened his eyes.

Ayako was so shocked that she dropped the record board.

"That move was also..."

"It's that accelerated pass that Lin Bei used before!"

"Who exactly is this person?"

Lin Bei stood at the top of the arc, his gaze coldly locked onto the retreating Kuroko, the laziness in his eyes completely gone.

"What a terrifying guy," Lin Bei thought to himself, on high alert.

He originally thought that the hater was just a marginal person who relied on "visual manipulation" for assistance.

But that one move just now allowed him to see the core of Di Guang's tactics.

Having a weak presence is not a weakness, but rather the most fatal lubricant for the Generation of Miracles!

These monsters are invincible in one-on-one combat.

But without the invisible chain of haters, they would be a disorganized mess.

The black pieces are the core engine that keeps this war machine running at full speed.

Possession changes, Shohoku inbounds from the baseline.

Lin Bei had just dribbled the ball across half-court when his instincts kicked in and he immediately started screaming for help.

Akashi became the one defending him.

Meanwhile, the dangerous aura of Aomine Daiki, who resembled a black panther, had vanished from his flank!

"Keep a close eye on him!" Rukawa roared from the right side of the three-point line.

Qingfeng didn't even try to ambush Lin Bei.

Relying on his explosive physical abilities and wild instincts, he began an extremely terrifying off-the-ball movement.

Every acceleration, sudden stop, and reverse run.

They all cut into Rukawa's defensive blind spots like surgical blades.

"Too slow!"

"Your movements seem to be in slow motion!"

Aomine's taunts lingered in Rukawa's ears.

He was like a black lightning bolt, easily tearing through the defenses, so fast that Rukawa didn't even have a chance to tug at his clothes.

Rukawa Kaede's chest heaved violently, and sweat dripped down his chin onto the floor.

Being relentlessly outpaced by the same person in speed repeatedly pierced the pride of this aloof genius.

"hateful……"

Rukawa Kaede gritted his teeth, a terrifying fighting spirit surging in his eyes.

"It's not over yet! I will never lose to the same person twice!"

Faced with the immense pressure of the Generation of Miracles, Rukawa Kaede instinctively lunged backward, desperately biting at Aomine's afterimage.

Meanwhile, Lin Bei had already fallen into an extremely dangerous quagmire.

"Your teammate seems to be dying." Akashi's cold voice rang out.

It wasn't just Akashi pressing him so closely.

The 1.95-meter-tall Midorima Shintaro actually left Mitsui Hisashi completely unguarded.

He took a large step to the side, forming an impenetrable double-team with Akashi!

One tall and one short, one on the left and one on the right.

Akashi cuts off ground breakthrough routes, while Midorima blocks the view of aerial passes.

"To deal with just me, they even called in their ace marksman to act as a meat shield?"

"There's really no need for that." Lin Bei laughed in exasperation.

Akashi's heterochromatic eyes remained completely unmoved:

"As long as we win, this round won't be a loss."

"Your path is blocked, Mr. Lin Bei."

Midorima pushed up his glasses, his voice flat:

"Your Eastern-style footwork is indeed strange."

"But in the face of absolute prediction and a high level of understanding, all efforts are in vain."

Faced with this desperate double blockade, Lin Bei remained completely unmoved.

"Absolute prediction? Absolute height?"

Lin Bei took a deep breath, his eyes clear.

"These kids know absolutely nothing about the essence of Tai Chi."

In my mind, the essence of "using someone else's strength against them" and "using minimal force to achieve maximum effect" unfolds like a scroll.

"Kill him!"

Midorima growled and suddenly stretched out his long arm.

Akashi's Heavenly Emperor Eye simultaneously detected Lin Bei's shift in center of gravity.

His right hand slashed at the basketball like a venomous snake.

Just as the two were about to touch the ball, Lin Bei made a move!

Tai Chi Cloud Hands!

Instead of retreating, he moved his hands forward, meeting the force of the two men's movements and pressing them against each other.

The wrist draws a perfect circle in a very small space.

The basketball moved like a fish between his fingers, following Akashi's force and Midorima's momentum, and naturally circled to the other side.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Bei stepped out with both feet in the Cloud Ladder Leap Starting Stance.

The center of gravity does not retreat but advances.

It was pressed against Midorima's body.

It suddenly rose up from the ground!
