Juri Ueno from Kuroko's Basketball

With Osaka no longer an obstacle, his vision was now clear.

But at this time.

"Oh!"

A figure appeared behind Vulcan and slammed a palm down on the basketball, sending it flying to Vulcan's shocked and bewildered gaze.

The number seven on the back is quite eye-catching.

They are the ace of the University of Tokyo.

Ueno Juri.

"This number seven is really strong!"

"Todai's ace is ridiculously strong. Shiorin is probably going to lose again this time."

In the audience, the viewers stared at Ueno in shock.

After passing the ball, Kuroko was substituted due to exhaustion.

In the next ten minutes or so, Ueno scored a terrifying 47 points, directly overtaking Shiro Rin.

Seeing Ueno's indifferent gaze, Kagami felt extremely angry.

That is anger towards oneself.

Anger at one's own weakness.

"beep!"

The referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

Tokyo University vs. Seirin.

77: 58.

………………

Shiro Rin's changing room.

The atmosphere in Shiratsumi's locker room was very oppressive and somber at this moment.

Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.

Hei Zi has already been taken to the infirmary.

Everyone's minds were filled with images of Ueno's dunks, blocks, and smashes; at this moment, Ueno had become a nightmare in their hearts.

Everyone's faces were extremely pale.

It was as if they had already lost the game.

Even Hinata, the captain who usually likes to cheer everyone on, was sitting in a corner with a towel draped over his face.

Are we going to lose again?

Hinata was feeling very upset at that moment.

He made a promise with that guy that he would definitely win.

but.

The thought of Ueno's cold gaze immediately dimmed his eyes.

The University of Tokyo's ace is just too strong.

Even as a coach, Reiko didn't know how to comfort everyone at that moment.

But she knew that if she didn't step up, the second half would be over. She took two steps forward and looked at the dim and lifeless eyes of the crowd. Her voice was a little hoarse.

"We made a promise."

"Don't forget what you said when you asked me to be your coach."

"It's a promise, no matter how powerful the opponent, we absolutely, absolutely, absolutely cannot give up!"

The last few words were almost screamed out by Reiko in a heart-wrenching roar, her tone filled with sorrow and pleading.

Hearing Reiko's angry roar, everyone stopped in their tracks and looked up at her.

Reiko's eyes were now red.

Tears streamed down her face as Reiko looked at everyone. Her voice was slightly hoarse as she murmured, "This...this is what we promised!"

As she spoke, she looked up at everyone and continued, choking back tears, "We...we made a promise, how can you go back on your word!"

Looking at Reiko, Hinata and the others recalled the words they had spoken when they asked her to be their coach.

Lizi once said that she could be a coach.

But you have to agree to a few of her requests.

And the first one is.

No matter what kind of enemy we encounter, we must never give up.

It seems they've forgotten?

"Reiko, what are you saying?" Hinata ripped the towel off his head, his face regaining its usual calm smile, and slowly walked up to Reiko, his gaze unwavering.

"How could I possibly break our promise?"

“That’s right, the competition has only just begun. Who knows who will win or lose until the very last moment?” Izuki Shunya slowly stood up and came to Hinata’s side, looking at Reiko with a light smile.

“That’s right, our Shiro Rin isn’t so easily defeated!” Koganei shouted as well.

"The promise we made, I will definitely keep." Kagami clenched his fist again, recalling everyone's efforts together, the vow made on the rooftop that day, and Kuroko's pale face when he was carried away. A faint red lightning flashed in his eyes.

Chapter 140 Entering the Zone Showdown

The locker room at Dongda University.

Compared to the atmosphere at Shiro Rin, the atmosphere at the University of Tokyo was noticeably better.

But because of the empty space, everyone remained somewhat silent.

Sitting quietly in the corner, Ueno was breathing heavily, sweat dripping down his face.

His gaze lingered in recollection.

Although Sora is a male protagonist, his opponent is definitely the most miserable male protagonist he has ever seen in sports anime, without exception.

The first episode features a scene where Kong is bullied under a pedestrian bridge.

The basketball team he joined was a gathering place for delinquent teenagers; they were always fighting or on their way to fight, but fortunately, they were all very loyal to each other.

Finally, if it weren't for the patchwork and mending that brought together the basketball team members, that team would probably still be a team that couldn't even field five players.

Just like the University of Tokyo before Ueno came.

Even so, the male protagonist, Sora, still can't beat other teams, and the girl he likes still doesn't like him.

The most important person in his life left him.

And they even lost the game that day.

The basketball club was also engulfed in flames, and the school ordered its disbandment.

It can be said that in an instant, all the suffering fell on the male protagonist, Sora.

Ueno clenched his fist slightly, his gaze resolute.

Although he is not the kind of hot-blooded and impulsive guy, it doesn't mean he is cold-blooded.

Most importantly, he always keeps his promises to others.

"Ueno, should we take a break in the second half?"

Coach Shinha crossed his arms and looked at Ueno with some concern.

Although he was very satisfied with Ueno's performance in the first half, he was also somewhat worried about Ueno's physical condition.

"fine."

Ueno shook his head slightly.

Only he himself knows his own condition.

………………

"beep!"

The whistle blew, and the second half of the match between Tokyo University and Seirin began!

Shirorin has possession of the ball, and the two sides switch offensive positions.

Seeing the different state of the Shiro Rin group, Ueno knew that these guys must be in a state of high spirits.

His gaze was sharp, but so what?

Upon receiving the pass from his teammate, Kagami's eyes flashed like lightning, with faint red lightning crackling in them. He looked at Ueno, who was defending him, and spoke with unprecedented determination.

"Ueno! We will never lose again."
