Kuroko: I had already won the championship before the miracle happened.

"Wow, Okura Masaaki! Such a strong power, he pressed Tanaka Makoto down!"

"Eh?!"

"Shigure Akito!"

Just when Okura Masaaki suppressed Tian Jincheng in the air and grabbed the ball!

He didn't notice...

the other side.

Shi Yu Qiuren, who was clearly farther away from the basket than them, had already suddenly increased his speed to a higher level in front of everyone's astonished gazes!

The one who came later but arrived first suddenly closed the gap!

Pa~!

He picked the melons from above their heads!

"I'm sorry..."

"team leader."

"It's already picking up speed and can't be stopped."

Shigure Akito grabbed the ball faster than Okura Masaaki. Using the momentum of 'Green Light' and 'Full Acceleration', he practically glided over, and then...

Boom~!

One-handed...

He poured it into the basket like throwing a cannonball!

Looking at Shigure Akito, who was reluctant to let go of the rim after a one-arm dunk and was now swinging dangerously due to the inertia of the forward rush, Okura Masaaki shook his head speechlessly.

"What are you doing..."

"Shigure."

Do you know how much effort I just put in to open up space in the penalty area for you, which put me in a weak position and suppressed Tian Jincheng in the air...

but……

You’re too strong, Shigure.

not far away.

Nijimura Shuzo looked at Shigure Akito in silence for a moment, then suddenly spoke, "It's time to go down, and... also... I need to practice my extreme speed with the ball..."

"What was this mess just now?"

Boom~

Shigure Akito let go of the basket and fell down.

"..."

He doesn't want to either...

[Goshiro Tomokazu: Full Speed ​​Acceleration: The belief in winning allows him to accelerate at a faster speed (without the ball)]

With his skills like this, what can he do...

Hagioka Kasayuki looked at the scene in front of him, lowered his head slightly and took a breath, while the Okayama team members cast their glances at him vaguely.

call……

I can't lower my head yet.

A 9-point gap...

Still within the expected limit.

However, Shi Yu Qiuren's ability is stronger than I imagined. If I choose to expose it before the end of the first half, it will be dangerous. I have no choice...

The Teiko Twins, the weakest in terms of ability.

Physical fitness must be limited.

Teiko vs. Okayama.

58: 49.

……

Okayama's offensive round.

After Shigure and Nijimura discovered Hagioka Kasayuki's three-point shooting ability, the starting point of the offense was chosen to be near the free throw line. After Kamiya Tousei came over to cover for him, Hagioka Kasayuki chose to pass the ball to Kamiya Tousei who was being removed.

Pa~!

Catch the ball!

Break through with the trend!

Under the defense of Utsumi Masahiko, Kamimiya Toyo seized the opportunity and broke in!

Seeing that Kurimiya Touse broke through Utsumi Masahiko's defense, and after confirming that Kurimiya Touse was completely facing away from him, Shigure Akito suddenly released his defense against Hagioka Kasayuki!

Then he turned around and rushed into the penalty area!

Hagioka Kasayuki was left empty-handed!

Call back immediately!

"Come to the palace!"

However, Nijimura Shuzo's reaction was also extremely fast. He immediately filled the defense for Shigure Akito, and at the same time waved his arm to command the broken through Utsumi Masahiko to rotate the point guard Dànji Kaoru who he had released.

The judgment and choice in an instant are so fast!

After hearing Hagioka Kasayuki's reminder, Kuromiya Tousei also discovered that the return line was blocked, and a "green light" flashed in his field of vision, rushing towards him at lightning speed.

It was Shi Yu Qiuren!

So fast...

What a monster!

First grade kid!

but……

It doesn't matter.

Kurumiya Tousei chooses to jump and attack the basket!

And Shigure Akito also jumped up, and did not choose to use skills of extreme height to block, but just blocked Raimiya Densei with both hands in mid-air!

The horrifying sound of breaking wind in his ears made Lai Gong Deng Shi complain in his heart. The speed was fast and the height was outrageous. He was at the free throw line in the last second, and was blocked in the air in the next second!

Although Hagioka's reminder did not allow him to successfully pass the ball back to create an open space, it was still quite useful.

As long as I trick you into jumping...

Next…

That's fine, right?

Kirimiya Touse twisted his body in the air, put his ball-protecting hand on the side where Shigure Akito was blocking, and then passed the ball behind him with one hand!

here……

Hagioka will definitely follow up!

Pa~!

When the sound of the ball being caught was heard, Kirimiya Tosei could be sure that it was Hagioka Kasayuki who caught the ball, but in this narrow penalty area space, Shigure Akito exerted his speed to the limit!

The moment he landed, another rush appeared in front of Hagioka Kasayuki!

And behind Hagioka Kasayuki, Nijimura Shuzo was being stuck behind him with his butt!

Hagioka Kasayuki's eyes turned, and it was as if an electric current suddenly passed through Tian Jincheng's mind. His body moved faster than his brain, and he immediately jumped up one step ahead of Okura Masaaki!

at the same time……

Hagioka Kasayuki's pass was also delivered accurately as Tanaka Makoto leaped!

Okura Masaaki was completely broken through the defense of the penalty area by the incredibly fast connection between the two!

not good……

Not only was the tacit understanding between the two teams incredibly fast, but it was also hard not to attract his attention when Hagioka Kasayuki broke into the penalty area without the ball.

However, just as Okura Masaaki was regretting his failure to react in time.

Nijimura Shuzo, who had just been pinned down by Hagioka Kasayuki's butt, saw the opponent's pass and relaxed his position, and spun around and passed him...

Almost in sync with the timing of Hagioka Kasayuki's pass, he jumped towards Tian Jincheng. When the alley-oop dunk was about to hit the basket, he swung the ball suddenly and knocked it away!

Tian Jincheng: “!?”

hateful!

Shigure Akito is outrageous enough!

First he chased from the free throw line to the penalty area to block the shot, and then turned around to block Hagioka Kasayuki!

But how did Nijimura Shuzo do it?

He almost completely saw through Hagioka Kasayuki's alley-oop pass?!

Pa~!

No time to be surprised.

The ball was fanned by Nijimura Shuzo and flew onto the backboard!

With his height advantage, Hagioka Kasayuki overpowered Shigure Akito and got the rebound. No... maybe it would be more appropriate to say that he passed the ball in the air, and the direction he passed it to was outside the three-point line, far away from the battle situation!

over there……

It was the small forward Hino Shinya who appeared in the open space out of nowhere!

Swish~!

Three point hit!

Teiko vs. Okayama.

58: 52.

Izawa Xiang turned his head suddenly. His previous position was a little closer to the penalty area because of the chaos in the interior, so he was completely unable to react to the sudden long-range rebound pass from the interior to the three-pointer!

Nijimura Shuzo: "What an amazing vision and pass..."

Shigure Akito: "What a large-scale Rainbow Village renovation..."

Hagioka Kasayuki looked down at the Teiko Twins surrounding him, who inexplicably felt like they were besieging him, and couldn't help but smile.

"Connecting teammates with the ball is what I am best at."

Simple, easily forgotten passes that create breathing space are also part of the fascination with basketball.

slap~

slap~

slap~

Following the applause of encouragement, Hagioka Kasayuki said loudly:

"Everyone!"

"Defend!"

"what!!"

"Oh!"

Off the court.

On the Teiko bench.

Shirogane Kozo looked at Hagioka Kasayuki's back as he passed by him and couldn't help but admire him in his heart.

In his perception of the ace, Hagioka Kasayuki is truly outstanding, at least in terms of using his back to inspire teammates at critical moments.
