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

Kasamatsu first ran to the side of the sun to make a screen, while Kohori ran to the other side and also made a screen.

Caught between two people, Imakichi was stunned: Double cover?

Xiangyang received the screen from Kohori and broke through to the right. Seeing Xiangyang's movement, Kasamatsu immediately moved to the left. After Kohori finished the screen, he also rushed towards the basket. At this time, Kise had also gone around the baseline and arrived at the right 45-degree angle.

Touou's defense was instantly shattered.

Momoi was so surprised that she dropped her pen. In just a few seconds, Kaijo created four empty spaces!

Xiangyang glanced at the positions of both sides and passed the ball to Kasamatsu on the left. Kasamatsu's defender was already confused and didn't know who to guard. After a brief pause, Kasamatsu released the three-pointer and it went in cleanly.

Beep—

Haichang leads 5-2.

"I didn't expect you to have some skill."

Xiangyang, who was returning to the field, turned around and saw Qingfeng.

"I thought you were just good with words, but you've got some skills."

"Isn't it okay for you to be chatting so leisurely with me? Your teammates seem to need your help, Mr. Aomine."

Xiangyang pointed to Jinji, who was dribbling high up. Jinji kept glancing at Qingfeng, but Qingfeng showed no intention of taking the ball. He picked at his ear and said, "Don't worry, my teammates may be useless, but they're not incompetent either."

Seeing that Aomine couldn't get close, Imakichi immediately passed the ball to Wakamatsu in the paint.

Xiangyang, supporting himself on his knees, watched Ruosong repeatedly back down to the basket but ultimately missed, and couldn't help but tease him: "Is your team's culture just about one-on-one play? You do one-on-one and then let your teammates score?"

Aomine remained noncommittal. He had only come to say hello to Xiangyang. It had been a long time since he had seen anyone outside the Generation of Miracles who could pique his interest.

"Basketball is not such a simple thing."

Xiang Yang said meaningfully that he still harbored resentment towards Qingfeng for his rude remarks last time.

Qingfeng sighed: "So, I admit that you people who keep talking about a team have some skills, but you're still far from being a team."

"I'll show you that absolute individual strength can crush all the fancy stuff."

Qingfeng spoke very softly, and Xiangyang unconsciously leaned closer. Suddenly, he noticed... a flash of lightning in Qingfeng's eyes.

Xiangyang was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shouted, "Ryota!"

Hearing his teammate's call, Kise, who was attacking with the ball, turned around and looked: "What's wrong? Xiangyang."

However, before he could finish speaking, Kise felt a bolt of lightning rush towards him.

Huh? My ball? It seems to be gone...

Kise hadn't yet realized what had happened.

Beep—

The two goals scored by Touou are valid.

Takeuchi, sitting on the sidelines, was so shocked his jaw almost dropped. Coach Touou had a similar expression.

Momoi covered her mouth, unable to believe it.

After a brief moment of shock, Xiang Yang came to his senses, gritted his teeth, and gave his coach a look.

Hai Chang applied for suspension.

I said, just now

What is that thing?

"I didn't even see it clearly, how did he steal the ball from Kise and how did he make the layup?"

Takeuchi rubbed his temples, listened to the team members' discussion, and explained in a deep voice: "The human body has a protective instinct, so athletes will not perform at 100% during a competition. However, sometimes, a player's potential explodes, and they can perform at 100%! We call this the zone."

Upon hearing this, Kise couldn't help but ask, "Has Aomine entered the Zone?"

Takeuchi glanced at him and slowly nodded.

"Now that our timeout is over, he should be out of options."

Kasamatsu calmly analyzed that since entering the zone was just a coincidence, Aomine's zone should also end after the pause.

Takeuchi didn't speak, but looked at Xiangyang.

Xiangyang was thinking with his head down when he realized that many eyes were on him. He looked up and replied, "I think... Qingfeng might be able to enter the zone freely."

"Huh? Huh!!!"

The crowd at Haichang was in an uproar once again.

Xiang Yang listened to his teammates' discussion and smiled wryly: "Hey, this guy can already activate his Zone? The original timeline is supposed to be until the Winter Cup, but the National Tournament hasn't even started yet, and he's already activating his Zone? Isn't this a case of being outclassed?"

Then Xiangyang remembered that Qingfeng had never trained since middle school, which seemed reasonable. After opening the zone, he felt invincible, so he stopped training. He was afraid of not finding opponents, which also made sense...

I'll just start selling it directly.

Xiangyang scratched his head and looked at Qingfeng, only to find that Qingfeng was looking at him with an annoying smile.

Xiang Yang's lips twitched: This guy...

Chapter 16 The Shattered Touou

Compared to the heated discussion at Kaijo, Toou was much quieter. No one asked Aomine how he did it, and Aomine didn't want to explain to his teammates. In his view, having him on the team was enough.

Momoi looked at the quiet bench, not a single person speaking, and sighed inwardly. She asked, "Big Brother, what was that just now?"

"It's my move, Zone. I learned it the year I graduated from junior high."

Aomine was quite friendly to Momoi, but if anyone else had asked him the same question, Aomine would have been lucky not to answer or even make a sarcastic remark.

"Such a powerful move shouldn't be used all the time."

Qingfeng was silent for a moment before speaking, "It doesn't matter. I will crush them before that happens."

"So, just give me all the balls from now on."

.

"Seriously, what are we going to do with such an overpowered skill?"

Kise walked towards the side of the court and complained.

Kasamatsu gave him a chop to the neck and said irritably, "Don't talk such discouraging things. By the way, aren't you also a member of the Generation of Miracles? Do you have any similar special moves?"

Kise grinned and said, "Aomine has never used this before, and even though they are both from the Generation of Miracles, there are still differences between them."

Xiangyang glanced at Kise; this guy said he had no choice, but the fighting spirit in his eyes hadn't diminished at all.

"It's okay, he can't keep using this kind of excessive stuff."

Xiangyang touched his nose and continued, "Anyway, he's unlikely to pass the ball. If he breaks through, just put more pressure on him."

The timeout has ended, and the game has resumed.

Imakichi passed the ball directly to Aomine, and together with his teammates, they ran to the baseline corner, perfectly executing the tactic of creating space for the ace to play one-on-one.

Aomine faced Kise and glanced at the inside. The Kaijo team intentionally collapsed the inside, not wanting Aomine to score comfortably. As a result, the outside was given a lot of space.

But who is Aomine Daiki? At this time, he was a stubborn version of Kobe. Kobe didn't like passing the ball, and Aomine simply didn't know what passing was.

A flash of lightning in his eyes, a simple step-back breakthrough, no technique, all talent. Aomine, with his speed at its maximum, was unstoppable. One step past Kise, two steps around Kaijo's help defense, and three steps to rise and slam dunk.

Xiang Yang sighed as he watched this explosive goal.

"No matter how many people come, it's the same. The only one who can defeat me is myself."

Aomine glanced back at Kise and Hida, left a smug remark, and then turned and walked away with an air of nonchalance.

"...Oh no, Xiao Xiangyang."

Hmm? Xiangyang turned to look at Kise.

At this moment, Kise lowered his head, looking at his hands, which were trembling. His voice was also trembling: "I think I'm bewitched. I really want to attack now, I really want to fight Aomine one-on-one, I really want to kill him."

Xiang Yang was taken aback for a moment after hearing this, then smiled slightly.

"I thought you'd been beaten into a coma, genius."

Xiangyang patted Kise on the shoulder: "I give you permission! Now it's your turn. Take care of that arrogant guy!"

.

What's wrong with this guy? Aomine stared at the guy running wildly in front of him.

Kise uttered a broken sentence.

From the moment Aomine charged in to take on three opponents, Kise began to fight him relentlessly, relentlessly targeting him on both offense and defense. However, Aomine in his zone state could steadily suppress Kise, who only managed four points under his defense. In contrast, Aomine scored with ease, and even with the help of the Kaijo team, they couldn't stop this monster.

End of first quarter, 9:

Throughout the first quarter, the other eight players were running back and forth with the two of them. Xiang Yang originally hated this style of play where the ball was given to the ace and the others just played around on the court.

But once Aomine activated his zone, he became incredibly aggressive. Instead of sticking to a conventional offensive strategy and letting Aomine control the tempo, it was better to shut down the defense and let Kise run the game (Kise: ?).

This would disrupt Aomine's rhythm, wear down his stamina, and accelerate Kise's growth. A sparring partner of Aomine's caliber isn't easy to find. Having read the original work, Xiangyang clearly knows how much potential Kise possesses.

After Kise unlocks Zone, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's the best player in Kuroko's Basketball. "A flawless imitation." If someone with the surname Qiao came along, there might be a slight chance of defending against him... Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about Jordan, I'm talking about Qiao Feng who uses the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

Kise, panting heavily, plopped down on the bench. The fight had been too intense, and he hadn't recovered yet. After catching his breath a few more times, he said, "I'm sorry everyone. I was so reckless, and I ended up getting completely crushed."

Kasamatsu noticed that Kise was in low spirits and, from somewhere, pulled out...

A paper fan smacked Kise on the head, and he said irritably, "You know you're being willful, yet you still insist on going head-to-head with him. Are you an idiot? Honestly, your ace is never a peace of mind."

At this point, Kasamatsu glared at Xiangyang. If Xiangyang hadn't assured them that he had a solution, he would never have let Kise act so recklessly.

Xiangyang scratched his face. Just now, Kise's desire to fight Aomine was too strong. Moreover, letting Kise fight Aomine one-on-one would be very beneficial to Kise. So Xiangyang let Kise pester Aomine.

Originally, Xiangyang planned to defend against Aomine himself, since no one could defend against Aomine anyway, so he might as well do it himself and save Kise's stamina.

"It's okay, that guy should be close to his limit too."

Xiang Yang glanced at Qing Feng next door and said confidently, "You can sit on the bench for a while, genius. We'll take care of the second quarter. I'll guard that guy."

.

"Ah Da, why don't you rest for a while?"

Momoi looked at Aomine with concern. She had seen the two of them fight for the entire quarter. Although Aomine had the upper hand, a person's stamina is ultimately limited. Moreover, Touou currently had the advantage, so letting their ace rest was the best solution.
