Black Basketball: A false start

Chapter 199 You make me a little bored
"I am the one who can create and guide the future, but you... are not!" Kaneki Ken's light voice caused a huge wave in Akashi Seijuro's ears.

"I'm not absolute?" Akashi Seijuro's pupils shrank slightly, "I didn't expect you to be so rampant... I even think you're a little stupid."

"There's no point in saying more." Kaneki Ken walked slowly to the backcourt, "I once promised Coach Platinum that as long as I'm in Neon, I'll be your role model... and you are the last step in fulfilling my role as a role model!"

"Chihiro, get ready to go on stage." Shirogane Eiji said seriously as he looked at the situation on the field.

"Yes, coach." Dai Qianxun nodded slightly, stood up and started warming up.

As the ball returned to Rakusan High School, Takeyoshi Netani, who was standing at the baseline, passed the ball to Seijuro Akashi.

"Strange..." Kuroko Tetsuya keenly noticed the abnormality of Akashi Seijuro.

"What's wrong, Kuroko?" Kagami Daigo heard Kuroko Tetsuya's murmur and asked curiously.

"It's just that I feel... Akashi-kun's aura has become a little..." Kuroko Tetsuya didn't quite know how to describe it. After thinking it over again and again, he said uncertainly, "A little too ordinary...?"

"He talks big, but he actually knows how to deal with current affairs." Kaneki Ken noticed Akashi Seijuro's abnormality at the first moment and teased him with a smile.

"It's still early for the game, there's no need to rush." ​​Akashi Seijuro had a relaxed smile on his face, without a trace of his previous anger, "We have plenty of time to compete."

"Hey~"

During the conversation, Akashi Seijuro made a long ground pass and passed the ball to Hayama Kotaro.

"Thank you~" Hayama Kotaro took a step forward to catch the pass, posing a triple threat posture, and said to Rukawa Kaede, "Yoshi! You look very imposing~ I heard from Akashi that you are an incredible person~"

"A guy with colored hair... is he so stupid?" Rukawa stared at Kotaro Hayama for a long time and said something.

"Hahaha, you're very interesting. I like you." Hearing Rukawa's sarcasm, Yeshan Kotaro was not angry but happy. He kept taking tentative steps and said, "Well, as a thank you for making me happy, let's try... three first, how about it?"

"boom!!!"

Accompanied by a loud noise, the basketball turned into lightning and was transferred from Hayama Kotaro's right hand to his left hand. A yellow flash passed by, and Hayama Kotaro came to Rukawa Kaede's side.

"Is this the thunderous dribble in Kaneki's intelligence..." Rukawa Kaede thought to himself, but his footsteps did not slow down at all. He just moved sideways slightly and stood in front of Hayama Kotaro again.

"Haha, very good, very good~" Hayama Kotaro's eyes were full of admiration, "It seems that the information Kaneki gave you is very accurate. Three sticks really can't break you... Then let's try four sticks!"

"Boom!!!"

As Hayama Kotaro finished speaking, the basketball landed a little faster. Even with Rukawa Kaede's reaction speed, he couldn't see the ball's path clearly. Hayama Kotaro took the opportunity to change direction.

"I can keep up..." Rukawa was about to adjust his body shape, but was stopped by a tall and strong man next to him.

"Well done, Nango!" Kotaro Hayama praised after he broke into the inside with the help of a pick-and-roll.

"Don't even think about going over there, you yellow-haired monkey!" Just when everyone thought that Kotaro Hayama was about to score successfully, Sakuragi Hanamichi opened his arms and blocked Kotaro Hayama.

"Did the yellow-haired guy provoke you? Isn't Kaneki Ken also a yellow-haired guy?" Kotaro Hayama said unhappily after making a jump shot.

"Golden Gilgamesh has golden hair! And are you worthy enough to compete with Gilgamesh?" Sakuragi Hanamichi jumped up, roared and reached for the basketball.

"Okay, Sakuragi, you explained it very well. Don't say it again next time..." Kaneki Ken covered his face as he felt the scrutinizing gazes of the people around him.

"Bang~"

Although the arc of Kotaro Hayama's shot was very high, he still touched the bottom of the ball due to the strong interference of Hanamichi Sakuragi, and the arc of the basketball changed slightly in the air.

"duang~"

The basketball finally hit the back edge of the basket and bounced out.

"Ahhh! Look at my muscle rebound!" Netani Takeyoshi secretly pushed away Kabaji Shigehiro and jumped up, and was about to grab the rebound.

"Don't even think about it, black gorilla!" After landing, Sakuragi Hanamichi rushed straight to the basket and soared into the air.

"What..." Neya Takeyoshi looked at Sakuragi Hanamichi who flew over his head after starting later, and was bewildered, "This guy... can jump better than Koichiro!"

"I'm Sakuragi Hanamichi, the rebounding king of Shonan High School!" Sakuragi Hanamichi shouted excitedly as he looked at the basketball that was so close to him.

"Well done Sakuragi! You're very motivated!" The Sakuragi Army members in the off-court watched as the motivated Sakuragi Hanamichi cheered excitedly, but gradually they discovered... it seemed that Sakuragi Hanamichi was a little too motivated - they saw Sakuragi Hanamichi flying higher and higher, and the basketball gradually flew from his head to his face.

"Bang~"

With a dull thud, the basketball bounced off Sakuragi Hanamichi's face and onto the basket. The basketball spun twice on the basket and fell into the basket. "Hahahahaha~" Aomine Daiki on the sidelines laughed and pointed at Sakuragi Hanamichi, "Finally there's someone who's even less intelligent than me, hahahaha..."

As he was laughing, Aomine Daiki suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with what he said, and he couldn't laugh anymore when he saw the disgusted looks from the people around him.

“Ahem, joking aside, that kid just jumped really high…” Qingfeng Daiki coughed twice and sighed as if nothing had happened, “Most people can’t catch the ball with their face and have it bounce to the basket…”

"I think Kagami-san can do it." Kuroko Tetsuya looked at Kagami Daiga with a somewhat sinister look and said.

"I'm not as stupid as him!" Kagami Daigo promised solemnly.

"This is your apprentice?" Akashi Seijuro chuckled, "Very interesting."

"Big idiot..." Rukawa Kaede complained speechlessly while standing behind Sakuragi Hanamichi.

"Sorry, Gilgamesh..." Sakuragi Hanamichi rubbed his nose and came to Kaneki Ken with some embarrassment.

"Okay Sakuragi, don't worry about it. At least the block just now was beautiful." Kaneki Ken patted Sakuragi Hanamichi's shoulder and comforted him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"ISO!"

After receiving the ball from the baseline, Ken Kaneki slowly moved to the front court. After taking a look at the situation on the court, he made a "1" gesture.

Seeing this, the players of Shonan High School also tacitly cleared the right side for Kaneki Ken. At this time, in the entire right half of the court, only Kaneki Ken and Akashi Seijuro stood facing each other.

"Here it comes, it's another duel between Akashi and Kaneki!" Kise Ryota looked at the two people fighting on the field with a serious expression, "Whether that ball just now was a coincidence or an illusion... this ball will tell the answer!"

At this time, Ken Kaneki and Seijuro Akashi, who were facing off on the field, were staring at each other, and their defensive areas were reduced to only the small space under their feet.

"No need to look at me so seriously." Kaneki Ken had a determined smile on his face, "Why don't I give you a hint? Next I will break through from your right side."

"What a lame psychological tactic." Akashi Seijuro replied coldly.

"Alas... you see, no one believes the truth..." Kaneki Ken shook his head helplessly, "Then just wait and see!"

As Kaneki Ken finished speaking, the basketball hit the ground with a bang. Kaneki Ken took a big step forward and rushed to the right like an arrow.

"Arrogant!" Akashi Seijuro didn't expect that Kaneki Ken would attack his defense so directly. He quickly adjusted his body shape and blocked Kaneki Ken in front of him.

"Good, good, you react really quickly." Kaneki Ken's teasing voice rang in Akashi Seijuro's ears, followed by the sound of another exploding ball. In Akashi Seijuro's vision, Kaneki Ken just pulled the ball and turned around to get rid of his pursuit.

"The center of gravity of this ball is too high!" Akashi Seijuro looked at the basketball in front of him, golden light flashing in his eyes, and his arm stabbed towards the basketball like a knight's charging spear.

"Xiao Zheng, what are you doing?" Just when Akashi Seijuro's hand and the basketball were close at hand, Mibuchi Reo's frightened voice sounded in Akashi Seijuro's ears.

"What am I doing? Of course I'm stealing the ball..." Just as Akashi Seijuro was about to respond, a familiar tingling sensation spread up his spine.

"Click..."

Just as Akashi Seijuro's hand touched the basketball in his vision, there was another sound of broken glass, and a familiar dazzling white light, and Akashi Seijuro fell to the ground in a daze. When Akashi Seijuro regained his vision, Kaneki Ken really broke through Akashi Seijuro's right hand as he said.

"You are so conceited that it's ridiculous, Akashi Seijuro." Kaneki Ken's voice sounded in his ears, "If you can have even a little communication with Akashi, you will know that I, Kaneki Ken, never tell lies!"

"What are you bragging about!" Seeing Kaneki Ken successfully break through Akashi Seijuro's defense, Nango Koichirō couldn't help it anymore and rushed forward to try to steal the ball from Kaneki Ken.

"Very good, very energetic." Kaneki Ken looked into Nango Koichiro's eyes and said with a smile, "As a reward, I will let you immerse yourself in an endless fantasy world!"

"What?" Before Nango Koichirō could react, he saw Kaneki Kenhei jump and throw the ball into the basket in his sight.

"Don't even think about shooting!" Nango Koichiro jumped up and blocked the basketball in Kaneki Ken's hand with his big hand.

But when his big hand touched the basketball, a sound of glass breaking was heard, just like Akashi Seijuro's. Nango Koichirō felt dizzy and fell to the ground in a mess.

"Beautiful! Kaneki-san made a wonderful Buddha-praying move to avoid Nango-san's defense, and then he broke into the penalty area and scored a layup!" As the voice of the commentator on the sidelines rang out, Nango Kouichiro finally realized what had just happened.

"Well done, Kaneki."

Even though his teammate was knocked away, Akashi Seijuro looked very calm at the moment. He looked at Kaneki Ken with his eyes without any emotion and said softly: "Thanks to you... I think I understand what's wrong with you."

"Then do your best to please me, Akashi Seijuro." Kaneki Ken didn't seem surprised by Akashi Seijuro's quick response. "So far, everything you've done has made me a little bored."

I have something to do tonight. If there is one left and I can't finish it tonight, I will post it in the early morning or before noon tomorrow.
