Kuroko's Basketball: I'm not the boss?

...

"Kise Ryota, Kaijo's current ace, a former member of the Generation of Miracles, plays small forward... Hey, I'm talking to you, Ryota, are you even listening?"

Momoi sighed and rubbed her forehead. She really couldn't do anything about Aomine. If it weren't for Kise being her opponent, she even doubted that Aomine would have shown up today.

Aomine made no comment, just scratched his back and said nonchalantly, "I'm listening. Forget about the meeting, I'll take them all out."

Before Momoi could speak, Wakamatsu, who didn't get along with Aomine, couldn't help but shout, "You bastard, listen to the manager properly!"

Qingfeng glanced back at Ruosong, then stood up, picked up the basketball on the sidelines, took a running start, and slammed it down with such force that it knocked the basketball hoop down!

Qingfeng looked down at the basket, feigning distress: "Oops, I didn't control my strength well again."

Then he looked up at Ruosong with a mocking expression and said, "I told you, if you want to teach me, show me some results first."

.

"Speaking of which, although Touou is not a prestigious school, it's not small either."

"I've never heard of this school before."

"Weren't the Generation of Miracles supposed to all go to the top teams? Why are Kuroko and Aomine going to weak teams?"

Kasamatsu looked at Kise with a puzzled expression.

Kise simply shrugged and replied, "Aomine has always believed in the supremacy of individual strength, so he chose an obscure high school to prove that he doesn't need teammates and that he can do it all by himself."

Kasamatsu couldn't help but remark, "He sounds like a really troublesome guy. Are all of you Generation of Miracles weirdos after all?"

Kise immediately retorted, "Hey! What does this have to do with me? Although I initially thought I could rely on my own abilities, things are completely different now!"

Xiang Yang, who had been silent all along, nodded and said, "Indeed, that guy is much more annoying. Just thinking about his face makes me furious. Compared to him, geniuses are practically angels."

Kise's lips twitched; these words really didn't sound like a compliment.

At this moment, a tall, handsome middle-aged man stepped forward and greeted them: "Hello, I am the coach of the Tonghuang High School basketball team."

Takeuchi stepped out of the team, shook hands with him, and greeted him, thinking to himself: Is this normal? That Shiro Rin found a little girl to block the coach, it's ridiculous.

"This uncle is really handsome"

Wow, he's so much younger than our coach.

"That's right, and their temperament and physique are also different."

Hearing his teammates whispering amongst themselves, Takeuchi turned and glared at them, secretly vowing: if they lose, they'll have to go back and run fifty laps.

After being glared at by their coach, the Kaijo team instantly fell silent. Kise remarked, "Judging from the coach's expression, we have yet another reason not to lose today."

.

"Please come in, everyone. I'll call the team members to assemble, and then someone will take you to the locker room shortly."

Coach Touou greeted the Kaijo team politely, then his gaze fell on the cracked basketball hoop in the corner, and he was taken aback.

At that moment, Momoi walked over and whispered an explanation in his ear.

Coach Touou's expression remained unchanged as he nodded to indicate that he understood. Coach Takeuchi, however, turned pale as he looked at the damaged basketball hoop and recalled some unpleasant memories.

At this moment, Xiangyang saw Qingfeng lying on the side looking at the photo album. He raised the corners of his mouth, walked over to Qingfeng, and said, "I thought that with your arrogant attitude last time, you would only come in the second half, Mr. Qingfeng."

Hearing someone call his name, Aomine turned around, grinned, and said, "Isn't this Kise's little follower? Was my attitude bad last time? But I was just telling the truth."

Xiang Yang smirked: "Since you say the team is useless, then I really want to ask you how to play basketball. Teach me, Mr. Qingfeng."

Hearing Xiangyang's sarcastic remarks, Qingfeng also got angry. He stood up, walked up to Xiangyang, and looked down at him: "You bastard, then I'll teach you a lesson. Teams are such a ridiculous thing. It's just an excuse that weak people come up with to stick together for warmth."

Xiang Yang licked his lips, his face still bearing that familiar smile.

"Let's let the game decide, see you on the field."

.

The match is about to begin. Both teams, please stand in the middle of the field.

"Please advise!"

Beep—

Wakamatsu had a better jumping ability than Kohori, giving Touou the first attack opportunity.

"sorry!"

"It's okay, just make sure you're in position and don't miss anyone."

Kasamatsu calmly directed his teammates' defense. Although Kaijo's main point guard was now Xiangyang, Kasamatsu was very good at leadership. The Kaijo players were already used to Kasamatsu's command, so Xiangyang didn't have any intention of vying for the right to shout. Anyway, on the offensive end, they just needed to run according to my hand signals. It would be tiring to shout at the top of their lungs all the time on the court.

Captain Imayoshi of Touou dribbled the ball past half-court and passed it directly to Aomine. He then ran to the baseline and stood with the other three players.

Xiangyang glanced at the situation on the field. All four members of Tonghuang landed together, leaving all the space on the field to Qingfeng.

"Showing off one-on-one, huh? That's just like something you'd do, Aomine."

Kise licked his lips. There was no one around, only his opponent in front of him, the one he had always wanted to defeat. He felt his adrenaline about to explode.

Aomine didn't respond, casually dribbling the ball a few times, trying to shift Kise's center of gravity. Suddenly, he changed direction, leaving Kise behind. Kise was startled.

This guy is really scary.

Because Touou stretched the floor so much, the space given to Aomine inside was really limited.

That's plenty of room; Aofeng jumped directly from a step behind the free-throw line.

Success! Before Aomine could even smile, a white figure flew in from the left rear. Although Kise didn't catch up in the first step, his subsequent burst of speed was no less than Aomine's. As Aomine jumped to attempt a dunk, Kise also jumped at the same time, successfully blocking Aomine's dunk.

"You'll suffer a great loss if you underestimate me, Aomine."

"What a genius!"

Xiang Yang seized the opportunity and won the loose ball, but he did not rush forward. He slowed down and advanced while observing the situation on the field.

Just as Aomine jumped, the other four players from Touou had already turned back onto the court, believing that Aomine had already secured the ball. Although their judgment was wrong, their early return to the court prevented Higashi from passing the ball and launching a fast break.

Xiangyang couldn't help but click his tongue. Could a misjudgment have turned into a blessing in disguise? It was infuriating.

As Xiangyang walked towards the frontcourt, he suddenly noticed that Kise, standing at a 45-degree angle on the right, had his eyes shining, but didn't reach out for the ball. He was waiting for Xiangyang to decide how to play the first ball.

Seeing him like that, Xiangyang smiled slightly: "Really, with you looking like that, how could I resist passing the ball to you?"

Perhaps it was the block earlier that gave Kise confidence, or perhaps it was the opponent he had been longing for that was right in front of him. Kise seemed very excited. Xiangyang did not hesitate either. With their ace so high-spirited and not interfering with their offense, what point guard would stop such an ace from attacking?

He decisively passed the ball to Kise's Xiangyang, who immediately raised his hand to signal his teammate to initiate a one-on-one attack.

Momoi was taken aback by what she saw. The point guard wasn't Kasamatsu, but Xiangyang! And at Xiangyang's signal, Kaicho had actually mimicked Touou's tactics, spreading out four players to allow their ace to score one-on-one. This clearly demonstrated Xiangyang's extraordinary influence within the Kaicho basketball team. Not only had he secured the point guard position, but he could also direct the team's tactical execution on the court. This first-year player was no ordinary student. Momoi secretly noted this down.

As his teammates gradually disappeared from his sight, Kise felt excited. It was a chance to take down the opposing ace in a head-on one-on-one battle!

Kise steadied himself, he was very excited but his mind remained calm, and he did not attack rashly.

I can't match Qingfeng's speed in the first step, so I'll play to my rhythm!

Kise made a probing step to the right, then immediately broke through to the left. However, just as he expected, Aomine turned around and immediately followed.

"You can't shake me off at this level, Kise."

"Of course I know," Kise thought to himself, then smiled slightly. "How about this?"

Kise suddenly stopped, raised his hand as if to shoot, and Aomine stopped as well. At that moment, Kise immediately accelerated to the basket and slammed the ball down with one hand, making the rim vibrate. This difference in pace broke through Aomine's defense.

Ignoring the shocked gazes of the Touou members beside him, Kise looked at Aomine with a smile:

"I won this round, Aomine!"

Chapter 15 zone

Chapter 15

"Kise is quite capable. Looks like I need to get a little more serious."

Aomine stretched his neck, thinking to himself: This guy is even stronger than when we fought last time. Has he improved again? No, it's probably because he's in great shape.

That's exactly how it should be, Kise! Give me more fun!

Even though Kise won the last round, the Touou team still had absolute faith in Aomine. On offense, they passed the ball to Aomine, and the four of them stood in the corner to create space.

Kise took a deep breath; this battle between the aces wasn't over yet.

Aomine changed his playing style and started a series of fancy dribbling moves. However, as he dribbled more and more, he gradually shifted Kise's center of gravity. Aomine suddenly changed direction and accelerated, and Kise lost his balance and fell to the ground, only able to watch Aomine dunk and score with a look of resentment.

"Kise actually... got knocked down?"

"Was that move just now a street basketball move?"

"Ankle terminator."

Touou had already witnessed Aomine's weaponry before and was used to this sight, but the Kaijo members were seeing it for the first time and couldn't help but gasp in amazement. Those flashy streetball moves actually managed to do something like that, even managing to fake out Kise!

Xiangyang walked over and helped Kise up. Kise looked up at Xiangyang with tears in his eyes: "Little Xiangyang, I was shaken and fell over. How embarrassing!"

Cold sweat trickled down Xiangyang's forehead as he comforted him, "It's alright, even the most spectacular goal is only worth two points. The game has only just begun."

As he spoke, Xiangyang glanced at the Touou group, his mind racing: They're not on the same page, and they're not cooperating. But is it because of Aomine's monstrous abilities that they can come together? What a deformed team, the complete opposite of us.

Xiangyang received the serve and slowly advanced towards the frontcourt, while observing the opposing defense and glancing at his own teammates' positions. Were they all waiting for my signal?

Although Kise had just been faked out, the light in his eyes remained undiminished; he was still thinking about a showdown with Aomine. Xiangyang glanced at him and muttered, "This match is far from over. You'll have plenty of opportunities to settle things with him. Now, show him something good..."

Thinking this, Xiangyang walked to the center position and held up a six.

A glint of light flashed in Kasamatsu's eyes. Was he going to use the "ox horn"?

After Xiangyang provided the basic tactical ideas, and with the improvement and guidance of Coach Takeuchi, the starting point of this horn tactic was undoubtedly Xiangyang. However, the core lethality of this tactic is to create multiple scoring opportunities in a short period of time through fake screens, real screens, and passing.

Therefore, subsequent passing choices and vision are equally important, and in this respect, Yukio Kasamatsu, who was originally a point guard, is undoubtedly the best passing hub.

Coach Takeuchi sighed from the sidelines. Such an important tactic should have been saved for the actual match. Using something like this, which could be a trump card, in a training game was a huge waste.

However, looking at his players fighting hard on the field, the coach couldn't help but sigh, "It's really good to be young. Young people should be competitive. Let them be."

On the field, after receiving Xiangyang's gesture, all the Haichang team members...

They all started positioning themselves.

Imakichi frowned: All five of them have started moving?

Momoi sat on the sidelines, repeatedly pressing the black pen in her hand. She had a premonition that Kaijo was about to deliver a big blow.
