Kuroko's Basketball template: the king of slacking off, Shohoku's strongest sixth man.

Mitsui Hisashi's expression froze.

That hand wasn't very long.

But the jump height was terrifying; my fingertips brushed against the bottom of the basketball at the extreme distance.

"Snapped!"

A very soft, crisp sound.

The perfect parabola was instantly deformed, becoming a short-lived high-flying ball.

The figure landed, letting out a low growl like a wild beast:

"Don't be so arrogant! You're from Shohoku!"

It's Maki Shinichi again!

Even after being overtaken by Miyagi, he was still able to unleash such an inhuman speed of defensive reinforcement!

"You ran into them?! You actually ran into them?!"

Mitsui Hisashi gritted his teeth; that jumping height was simply outrageous.

The basketball slammed heavily against the front edge of the rim and bounced high into the air.

"rebound!!!"

This shot was crucial!

If Hainan gets the rebound, their counterattack will engulf Shohoku in an instant!

Under the basket, the sound of muscles colliding was sickening.

Kazuma Takasago roared and tried to use his weight to push aside the behemoth behind him:

"This is my backboard!"

But he felt like he had crashed into a granite wall.

Akagi Takenori's face was contorted with rage, and veins bulged on his forehead.

He exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Get out of my way!!!"

With a loud shout, Akagi pulled himself up on the spot without even taking a running start!

That is absolute air superiority belonging to the "gorillas"!

He stood atop Kazuma Takasago's head, holding up the sky with one hand.

With fingers like iron clamps, he fiercely grabbed the basketball in mid-air and pulled it into his arms.

One-handed grip!

Extremely domineering!

"Well done, Captain!" Kogure excitedly pumped his fist on the bench.

Akagi didn't stop after landing, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, and suddenly swung his arm.

"Rukawa!!!"

The basketball transformed into an orange lightning bolt, hurtling straight through the frontcourt.

There, a black-haired figure had already started moving, as fast as a biting cold wind.

Rukawa Kaede!

He received the ball and accelerated.

His face was expressionless, except for two dark, burning flames in his eyes.

Beside him, a red hurricane was running alongside.

He was still making a lot of noise:

"Send it to me! You damn fox!"

"This genius has a better spot!"

It was Sakuragi Hanamichi.

The two men were like two sharp knives, instantly piercing through Hainan's defenses.

"Get back on defense! Get back on defense now!"

Hainan retreated extremely quickly, with Jin Soichiro and Kiyota Nobunaga, who had just landed, rushing back to the backfield.

"Stop them!"

Kiyota Nobunaga gritted his teeth, staring intently at Rukawa Kaede who had the ball.

"We absolutely cannot let Shohoku score first!"

Rukawa Kaede's eyes flickered slightly.

He glanced at Kiyota, who was rushing up from the flank, and then at Sakuragi, who was eagerly waiting for food beside him.

"Idiot, stop that wild monkey."

He uttered a few cold words, and Rukawa's speed increased instead of decreasing.

Sakuragi Hanamichi instantly bristled, a "well" shape appearing on his forehead:

"What?!"

"You stinking fox, how dare you order this genius around?!"

"I'm going to score!"

"Doesn't the scoring champion understand?!"

He grumbled and cursed, but his actions betrayed him.

Sakuragi pushed off with his foot.

Its massive body, like an out-of-control tank, plunged diagonally into Kiyota Nobunaga's retreat route.

"Get out of the way! Red-haired monkey!" Kiyota shouted anxiously.

"Do you own this road? You wild monkey!"

Sakuragi spread his arms wide, blocking Kiyota like a wall.

Although the movements were completely haphazard, like an eagle catching a chick.

But with his abnormal physical abilities, he managed to keep Kiyota behind him.

"Well done, Sakuragi!" Miyagi shouted from the backcourt.

The frontcourt instantly became a one-on-one situation for Rukawa Kaede...

No, it's one against two!

Because at that very moment, a terrifying sense of oppression came from the side and behind.

It's still Maki Shinichi!

He and Jin Soichiro, one on the left and one on the right, instantly formed an impenetrable wall under the basket, blocking all scoring routes.

First came A Shen who sealed his eyes, then came Emperor Mu.

Desperate situation!

"Oh no! It's Maki!"

"Rukawa's playing style is too selfish!"

"We should pass the ball now!"

The audience gasped in surprise.

Even Rukawa Kaede would have to suffer against the double-team of the Kanagawa Kings, right?

"Hmph, those arrogant first-year students who don't know their place."

Mu Shen's eyes were like knives as he leaped high into the air, his large hand covering the sky and the sun.

"Here, I am the rule!"

however.

Rukawa Kaede's face remained completely calm.

in contrast.

that moment.

A strange red light seemed to suddenly flash in his normally indifferent, dead-fish eyes.

Like a wild beast suddenly opening its eyes in the dead of night in a jungle.

"rule?"

Rukawa Kaede suddenly exploded during his sprint.

"Bang!"

The basketball slammed onto the floor with a loud bang.

His body suddenly tilted to the left at an extremely strange angle.

The amplitude was so great that it seemed as if the whole person was about to slide along the ground.

Wild Red Fox!

Lin Bei, who had been half-closing his eyes on the sidelines, suddenly opened them wide, a playful smile curling at the corner of his mouth:

"Huh?"

"Looks like this fox has smelled blood."

On the field, Rukawa's movements completely defied human biomechanics.

The moment Maki Shinichi shifted his center of gravity to block the left side.

Rukawa Kaede's body, however, twisted inexplicably like a boneless snake!

Point your toes to the ground and use your waist and abdomen to generate power.

He drew a large "Z" shape in the air!

Like a red lightning bolt, it squeezed through the tight gap between Maki Shinichi and Jin Soichiro!

fast!

too fast!

It even possesses a primitive, savage beauty!

Mu Shen waved his hand, but missed. He only felt a gust of wind brush against his cheek.

"What?!" He turned around abruptly, his eyes filled with disbelief.

This kid's actions...

Rukawa Kaede, having crossed the defense, found only an empty basketball hoop in front of him.

He leaps off one foot, his body arching like a bow, his black hair dancing wildly.

He grabbed the ball with one hand and slammed it hard against the basket!

"boom!!!"

A loud bang, and the basketball hoop groaned in pain.

Rukawa Kaede was hanging on the rim, and the backboard was shaking violently.

The basketball spun through the net, slammed onto the floor, and bounced high into the air.

The entire room fell silent.

one second.

two seconds.

"Whoosh—!!!"

The cheers erupted like a volcano, nearly blowing the stadium's dome off.

"It's...it's in!!!"

"One against two!"

"Those are Shinichi Maki and Soichiro Jin!"

"My God! How did they do that move? It's like a fox spirit!"

"Shohoku! Shohoku has scored first!"

Rukawa Kaede released his grip and landed on the ground, adjusting his wrist guards with a blank expression.

He turned around and gave a cold glance at Maki Shinichi, whose face was ashen.

He glanced again at Kiyota Nobunaga, who was standing there dumbfounded.

Finally, my gaze swept across the crowd and landed on the figures on the substitutes' bench.

His eyes held a hint of provocation.

It's as if it's saying: Do you see that?

On the bench, Lin Bei lazily shifted his posture and muttered:

Why are you looking at me?

"Wasn't it me who taught you?"

"I came up with the names for all the special moves."

"Honestly, young people these days..."

"However..."

Lin Bei's lips curled up slightly.

"This fox's wild instincts are quite interesting."

On the court, Sakuragi Hanamichi rushed over and shouted sourly:

"That wretched fox!"

"You managed to steal the spotlight!"

"That ball should have been passed to this genius!"

Rukawa's eyes rolled back as he was choked, and an elbow struck Sakuragi's ribs.

"idiot."
