Black Basketball: A false start

Chapter 233 A miracle when there is no other way out?
"The soda should have been mine. I just put in the second least coin." Haizaki Shogo looked at Kise Ryota with sharp eyes and yelled.

"Flow?" Kise Ryota muttered to himself in shock as he looked at Haizaki Shogo in front of him.

"As expected, it's better for us not to leave now, Kagami-san." Kuroko Tetsuya said with a frown, feeling the sudden depressing atmosphere coming from the field.

"Come to think of it... there's no rush to intensify training on just one day." Kagami Daigo nodded and sat down again.

"This guy... unexpectedly likes basketball..." Kasamatsu Yukio stared at Haizaki Shogo with a serious face and muttered to himself, "This is going to be a big trouble..."

"Kise!" Naito Tetsuya shouted and sent the baseline ball to Kise Ryota. The players of Kaijo High School and Fukuda General also tacitly opened up space and left the game to the two teams' aces to decide freely.

"Huh..." Kise Ryota took a deep breath, took a step back with the ball, and then made a quick crossover to the left, leaving Haizaki Shogo half a body length away.

"I have to say, your speed difference is indeed almost the same as Qingfeng Daihui..." Haizaki Shogo's body clung to Kise Ryota like a leech, and he caught up with Kise Ryota in a twist, "But a replica is a replica, it's not yours!"

"Kaneki once taught me that from imitation to learning, it is to turn other people's things into your own!" Huang Lai Ryota gritted his teeth and said, "You don't understand this kind of thing!"

As he said that, Kise Ryota stepped heavily on the ground and jumped backwards, using his right arm like a slingshot to throw the ball heavily into the basket.

"Infinitive shot... I haven't seen it for a long time." Haizaki Shogo smiled and jumped up, and the basketball brushed past Haizaki Shogo's fingertips and flew towards the basket.

"Go in!!!" Hayakawa Mitsuo roared, looked at the basketball, and prayed continuously, hoping that this shot would be successful.

"boom!"

The basketball finally hit the basket and bounced heavily, then bounced out of the basket amid the disappointed eyes of everyone at Haichang High School.

"Rebound!" Yukio Kasamatsu was the first to react and shouted loudly.

"This ball is mine~" Haizaki Shogo rushed into the inside with light steps and jumped up before everyone under the basket.

"Ah..." Hayakawa Mitsuo stared blankly at Haizaki Shogo's figure and said softly, "This is not mine..."

"Wrong, wrong, this is my skill." With a grin, Haizaki Shogo snatched the basketball from Hayakawa Mitsuo and launched a fast break after landing.

"So fast!" Kagami Daigo said in shock as he stared blankly at Haizaki Shogo in the field.

"Although he has a bad personality, Haizaki-san's ability is unquestionable." Kuroko Tetsuya stared at the two streams of light, one black and one gold, on the court, and said with a hint of nostalgia in his voice, "Whether it's his sense of the ball or his body..."

"crunch~"

With the sound of shoes rubbing against the ground, Kise Ryouta and Haizaki Shogo suddenly stopped.

"What did you just say? I don't understand what it means to turn someone else's things into your own?" Haizaki Shogo easily controlled the ball, with a hint of teasing in his eyes, and said to Kise Ryota, "No one understands this better than me... but I prefer to rob!"

"Haisaki, you are still exactly the same as before, there is no difference at all." Kise Ryota looked at Haizaki Shogo solemnly and said, "I can lose to anyone, but I absolutely don't want to lose to you!"

"Haha, haven't you lost to me enough times?" Haizaki Shogo laughed sarcastically, with a strange smile on his face, and said, "I remember you just used this move, right?"

"boom!"

As the sound of the basketball hitting the ground was heard, Haizaki Shogo suddenly stepped back slightly, then lowered his center of gravity sharply and rushed past Kise Ryota's side.

“How is it possible!” Kise Ryota was shocked as he chased after Haizaki Shogo, saying in disbelief, “Obviously he’s not unable…”

"Boom!"

While Kise Ryota was still chasing him, Haizaki Shogo made a sudden stop and faded away from Kise Ryota, leaving him one step away. Then he made a similar indirect shot and threw the ball into the basket.

“Bang! Shua!”

The basketball hit the backboard and went into the basket cleanly. Everyone present stared at the two people confronting each other in amazement, as if they were looking at two monsters.

"Haisaki Shogo..." Kagami Taiga said solemnly, "Could it be that he has the same talent as Kise?"

"No, not exactly the same." Kuroko Tetsuya said in a deep voice, "On the surface, Kise-san and Haizaki-san both used their own methods to fight back, but in the specific details, there are still slight differences."

"For example?" I asked the Vulcan God in confusion.

"When Haizaki-san imitates the opponent's movements, he will inadvertently turn the subtle details of the movement rhythm into his own movement rhythm..." Kuroko Tetsuya explained, "and this movement rhythm will in turn affect the opponent's movement rhythm, making the opponent unable to use this movement anymore... In other words, Haizaki-san can plunder the opponent's skills..."

"But that's a skill of the Generation of Miracles!" Kagami Taiga said in disbelief, "Can Haizaki Shogo also plunder a skill of this level?"

"I'm not sure..." Kuroko Tetsuya took a deep breath and said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just the Aomine-style skill that Haizaki-san used just now always makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable..."

While Kuroko Tetsuya and Kagami Daiwo were still communicating, Kise Ryota on the field dribbled the ball across half court unconvinced, and facing Haizaki Shogo's defense, he once again used Aomine Daiki's signature streetball moves.

"No, no~" Haizaki Shougo said with a chuckle, "This is no longer your move, Ryouta!"

"What!" In the shocked eyes of Ryota Kise, Haizaki Shogo slapped the basketball out of Ryota Kise's hand.

"Haisaki!" Ishida Hideki, who was closer to the basketball, took a step forward, hugged the basketball, and then made a long pass to put the ball into the hands of Haizaki Shogo.

"Stop right there!" Kise Ryota chased after him angrily, spread his arms to block Haizaki Shogo and roared at the top of his lungs.

"Look at you now. Does it look like the time when you kept losing to me and kept begging me to try again?" Haizaki Shogo laughed happily and said, "Let me show you how to use the real Aomine Daiki's skills!"

"Dong dong dong dong!"

As Haizaki Shogo performed a dazzling dribbling show, the basketball hit the ground with dense drum beats. Haizaki Shogo's figure was like a lurking ghost, elusive.

"Left... or right?" Kise Ryouta gritted his teeth, forced himself to calm down, and watched Haizaki Shogo's every move with bated breath.

"Boom!"

As the sound of a ball exploding was heard, Haizaki Shogo's figure flashed by from the right side of Kise Ryota like a stream of light.

"Right!" Kise Ryota gritted his teeth and pounced on his right hand.

"No, no, I guessed wrong, I guessed wrong!" Haizaki Shogo's wanton laughter was filled with ridicule, "It should be on the left!"

“Damn it…” Kasamatsu Yukio muttered to himself, gritting his teeth, “Could it be possible that he could even plunder the skills of the Generation of Miracles?”

"Ah ha? The skills of the Generation of Miracles?" Haizaki Shogo said sarcastically, "Don't flatter yourself. In the final analysis, it's just a case of trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a dog!"

"Naito, guard him!" Fujima Kenji roared anxiously.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!” Naito Tetsuya roared, jumped up, and slapped Haizaki Shogo hard with his strong long arms.

"Your strength is too weak." Haizaki Shogo chuckled, turned flexibly in the air to avoid the block by Naito Tetsuya, raised the basketball, and smashed it hard towards the basket.

"Stop!" Kise Ryota angrily rushed into the paint and jumped up. A huge gust of wind pressure came, and Kise Ryota's hands pressed tightly on the basketball in Haizaki Shogo's hands. "Bang!"

As the two struggled, the basketball hit the front of the basket hard and bounced high into the air.

"That one was pretty good~" Haizaki Shogo's eyes flickered with a strange light, "It's mine too!"

I saw Haizaki Shogo grab the rebound before Kise Ryota, and in the puzzled eyes of everyone, he walked beyond the three-point line with the ball.

"What is he trying to do?" Kagami Daiwo asked in confusion, "Shouldn't the ball just now be directly attacked from the inside?"

"Kise's imitation of the Generation of Miracles is based on certain improvements made to his own movement conditions." Kuroko Tetsuya seemed to have seen the clues, "For example, he used the speed difference to make up for the difference in absolute speed with Aomine, used bounce to make up for the lack of height with Ziyuan, and used the addition of gravity and speed to make up for the lack of strength..."

"What do you mean?" Kagami Daigo looked at the scene thoughtfully, feeling that he was only a thin layer of window paper away from the truth.

"That's right." Kuroko Tetsuya nodded and broke the window paper, "These skills are essentially Kise-san's own skills... and what Huizaki plundered were Kise-san's skills!"

As Kuroko Tetsuya finished his words, Haizaki Shogo also rushed into the inside from outside the three-point line, jumped high, and swung the basketball hard behind his head with both hands.

"call!!"

The players' jerseys rustled as Haizaki Shogo's aura fully emanated, and the field was suddenly enveloped by a gray-black tornado.

"Haizaki!!!" Kise Ryouta roared and jumped up, stretching his long arms desperately towards the basketball in Haizaki Shogo's hands.

"You can't do it. This is no longer your skill, Ryota." Haizaki Shogo said with a disdainful smile on his face, "This is my skill!"

"Boom!"

Accompanied by the wailing sound of the basketball hoop, Kise Ryota was knocked to the ground by Haizaki Shogo's dunk.

"Come to think of it... I should thank you, Ryota!" After letting go of his hand, Haizaki Shogo slowly stood up and said to Kise Ryota, who was dumbfounded, "If it weren't for you, I would have always felt that I couldn't steal the skills from those guys..."

"Your opinion of him does make some sense..." In the audience seats on the sidelines, Koichiro Domoto stroked his chin and thought.

"Of course..." Nijimura Shuzo chuckled, his eyes revealing a nostalgic look as he said, "He was the guy who dared to punch me and challenge Kaneki Ryo..."

"Are you okay, Kise?" Kasamatsu Yukio walked towards Kise Ryota with some reluctance, stretched out his hand and asked with concern.

"I'm fine..." Kise Ryota held Kasamatsu Yukio's arm and looked at Haizaki Shogo with a serious look, "I was too careless..."

"It looks like the situation is not good for Kise now..." Kagami Daiga analyzed with some concern, "Although Kise Ryota has imitated countless technical moves, as more and more skills are plundered, Kise Ryota can use fewer and fewer skills..."

"Now we can only see if the other people from Kaijo High School can hold on for a while..." Kuroko Tetsuya said seriously.

"What use can they have?" Kagami Daiga shook his head in disapproval and said, "If even Kise Ryouta can't hold on...all they can do is sit back and wait for death..."

"No." Kuroko Tetsuya said softly, "After all, what Haizaki-san can't plunder is talent, not skills... Only if Kise-san can truly use his own talents and enter the zone with his own abilities, rather than imitating others in the zone state, can a perfect imitation be considered a true complement!"

“Damn it…” Takeuchi Genta looked at the stopwatch in his hand, sweat dripping down his forehead, “Why is it so urgent… Kise’s time limit is almost up…”

"Whoosh~"

Just when everyone at Kaijo High School was at a loss, Kise Ryota made a three-pointer, bringing the score difference to over 20 points again.

"This one's not bad either~" Haizaki Shogo said to Kise Ryota with a hint of aggression in his eyes, "But it's mine too!"

“It must be fake…” Kasamatsu Yukio swallowed his saliva as he looked at the strange smile on Haizaki Shogo’s face, “Even Kise himself took a long time to practice this move completely…”

"It seems that even though you say you must beat me, you are actually nervous inside, right?" Haizaki Shogo looked at Kise Ryota who was guarding him, reached out to his teammate to pass the ball, and said in a teasing tone, "But the more you do this, the more excited I am!"

As he said that, Haizaki Shogo bent his knees slightly on the spot, assumed a standard shooting posture and aimed at the opposite basket.

"How could I let you score a goal!" Kise Ryota gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and stabbed out with his long arms like a knight's spear.

"I was kidding. This move is too difficult~" As Haizaki Shogo looked at Kise Ryota's increasingly impatient expression, the smile on his face became more and more passionate, and he got rid of Kise Ryota's defense with a simple crossover.

"Damn it, I was fooled by such a fake move!" Kise Ryota slammed his palm in frustration and quickly ran to the backcourt, trying to stop Haizaki Shogo's fast break.

"You really don't want to guard against me? Actually, I was lying to you when I said this move was too difficult~" Haizaki Shogo said frivolously, suddenly stopped, and suddenly shot the ball from a distance one step behind the center line, "When have I ever missed something I wanted to steal, Ryota~"

As Haizaki Shogo finished his words, the basketball drew a high arc in the air and fell into the basket accurately like a rainbow.

"Didi dididi~~"

Just as the basketball fell into the net, the stopwatch in Takeuchi Genta's hand suddenly rang, and Kise Ryota's playing time had reached the limit.

"Kise, it's time to go off the court and rest." Although he was extremely reluctant, Takeuchi Genta finally decided to consider Kise Ryouta's health and made the decision to make a substitution.

"No, coach!" Huang Lailiangta looked at Takeuchi Genta with a surprised face and said, "I can't leave the court at this time, okay?"

"Get off the court obediently, Kise!" Kasamatsu Yukio said solemnly, "We are still leading now, it's just that we can't let the score difference exceed 15 points before you go on the court, so you can rest assured. We are very skilled at this kind of thing!"

"Okay, Captain..." Kise Ryota looked at Kasamatsu Yukio's serious expression, gritted his teeth, nodded, and said.

"It just so happens that at this time, Kise Ryouta's playing time has reached its limit..." Kagami Daiga looked at Kaijo High School, which was leading but the players on the field were struggling, and said solemnly, "Kaijo High School now... has no way out!"

……

"Is this guy desperate?"

In Tokyo Gymnasium, the second half of the game had already started for two minutes. Himuro Tatsuya looked at Midorima Shintaro who received a pass from Takao Kazunari and scored a layup, and said in confusion: "Using a weapon that you are not good at, to fight against Kaneki Ken?"

"This isn't a decision made out of desperation, Chen Ye..." Alex Garcia said with admiration, "Rather, this guy has finally realized what an ace should do!"

"You actually gave up your best three-point shot in exchange for every possible shooting opportunity... It seems that you have prepared more than one surprise for me today, Midorima Shintaro." Kaneki Ken narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Midorima Shintaro with a hint of imperceptible joy in his eyes, "Very good, this is the only way to make a breakthrough."

"I said, today I must defeat you together with my seniors!" Midorima Shintaro said seriously, "This is the agreement between me and my seniors!"

"Coach, the tactics you arranged during the halftime break, we haven't practiced them much..." On the bench where Shutoku was highly efficient, Itakura Daijiro looked at the court with a worried look on his face and said, "Isn't it too risky to change tactics temporarily?"

"We have to trust Midorima..." Nakatani Hitoshi shook his head, not knowing whether to agree or not, "We have to trust the bond between him and his teammates on the court!"

……

"Ah Hu...it seems like you trust these kids a lot..."

In the gym, Aida Katsutora sat behind a guest with his cell phone on silent mode, silently broadcasting the game between Shutoku High School and Shonan High School.
