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

Kasamatsu walked slowly to Nash's side, trying to appear calm, and extended his right hand to him while praising him.

This is Yukio Kasamatsu, the previous captain of Kaijo, who embodies both courtesy and a strong sense of responsibility. He is the most reliable captain in Kaijo's history, without a doubt!

This time, however, his good intentions were wasted.

Accompanied by a "ha tui" sound.

A mouthful of spittle appeared in Kasamatsu's hand. He stood there, staring at the white liquid in his hand, until he heard a mocking laugh in his ear, at which point he finally came to his senses.

"Stop joking, you yellow-skinned monkeys. It's a waste of our time for people like you to compete together."

"Honestly, this place is full of yellow-skinned monkeys, and even the air is so polluted. If it weren't for how easy it is to make money here, I wouldn't have come here."

Nash patted his shoulder as if there was something dirty there, then looked at the angry expressions on Kasamatsu and the others' faces and curled his lips into an exaggerated smile.

"Just watch us, you losers. I thoroughly enjoy seeing your expressions of humiliation and utter silence!"

Chapter 192 New Generation of Miracles: Dragon Slayer Team

"You've all heard about it, haven't you?"

Inside the Rakuzan High School basketball gym, Akashi stood on the court. It was already evening, and the sun was gradually turning crimson, shining through the windows above the gym and onto Akashi.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly arose in the shadows of the basketball court, and a figure strolled forward and walked to Akashi's side.

Bathed in the glow of the setting sun through the window, Qingfeng's face was revealed in the sunlight, but unlike usual, his expression now carried an added air of fierceness.

"When did you become so fond of talking nonsense, Akashi? Since we're all here, you must have already heard about it."

Qingfeng cracked his neck twice, and his aura surged.

If a child were to pass by here and see Qingfeng looking like this, they would probably be so frightened that they would burst into tears!

At this moment, Qingfeng was like a cheetah, hungry and fierce.

"They've come to our doorstep to mock us; we just can't swallow this insult."

Kise's voice rang out from inside the stadium. He put his hands on his hips, swayed as he walked to the light, and stood next to Akashi and Aomine.

"Gemini will face a huge test this week, but he will eventually overcome the challenges and taste the fruits of victory."

Midorima stepped forward in unison, pushed up his glasses to create a glare, and his rambling remarks were already a familiar sight to everyone.

From the shadows, the last massive figure slowly emerged, Murasakibara scratching his head while munching on a cereal bar he always carried with him.

"That uncle seemed to say that if I won the game, he would give me a lot of money... enough for me to buy food and fill my house."

Miracle Team: ...

"Little Purple, the most important thing isn't the snacks!"

Kise crossed his arms and said speechlessly, "Didn't you hear what that old man said? If even we lose, he's going to commit seppuku!"

Just a few days ago, during the exhibition game of the Japanese basketball team, after winning by a large margin, Nash and his team were not one to let it go. When Kasamatsu reached out to greet them, Nash not only spat on him, but also stood on the court and made sarcastic remarks to all the Japanese basketball players.

"Yellow-skinned monkeys don't deserve to play basketball."

These were Nash's exact words, which successfully ignited the anger in Aida Kagetora's heart.

"Nash, we'll have another game in a week. If we win, you'll have to apologize for everything you said before!"

At the exhibition match, Aida Kagetora, his face full of anger, issued a challenge to Nash. However, the latter did not accept it. Instead, he asked with a sneer, "Why should I play another match with you guys? If the reward is as generous as today, I might consider it."

Unfortunately, without the financial support of the Japanese Basketball Association, Aida Kagetora alone could not afford the exorbitant fee Nash demanded. However... although he lacked the money, his determination for revenge was extremely strong.

"If we lose, I will commit seppuku!"

"Now... are you interested in another match with us?"

Seppuku (ritual suicide by disembowelment) is a Japanese custom.

Traditional skills, and also the highest form of etiquette for Japanese warriors when making a pledge. When anyone says this in a serious tone, whether he is sincere or just bragging, at least for this moment, he deserves the respect of outsiders.

Nash looked at Aida Kagetora with admiration, but instead of offering him a way out, he readily agreed.

"Good! Uncle, I respect you as a man. We've come all this way to Japan, it would be too boring if we just played one game and went back."

Nash walked up to Aida Kagetora, his 190cm height giving the latter a great sense of pressure.

Feeling the sunlight that was originally shining on him being blocked by Nash in front of him, Aida Kagetora couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Although he tried to remain calm on the surface, Nash's excellent observation skills immediately noticed the unease in Aida Kagetora's heart.

A slight smirk appeared on his lips, revealing a cruel smile.

"Uncle, I'm really looking forward to seeing you covered in blood a week from now."

……

That's everything that happened after the exhibition match that day.

Aida Kagetora did indeed use "seppuku" as a prerequisite, making a promise with Nash to fight again a week later.

With the Japanese Basketball Association turning a blind eye to this, Aida Kagetora had no choice but to seek help from Akashi in order to save his life, and also asked everyone in the Generation of Miracles for help.

Fortunately, this private fight organized by Aida Kagetora does not have to worry about whether it is a legal or illegal fight, and in all of Japan, the person with the best chance of defeating the Neck-Breaking Dragons is undoubtedly the Generation of Miracles.

"However... although those guys' character and sportsmanship are so awful they make me sick, their skills are truly undeniable..."

Kise clicked his tongue. He had watched the entire exhibition match, including the scene at the end where Nash spat on Kasamatsu's hand.

Even though he was furious, Kise had to admit that the arrogant and domineering Bakuya Dragon did indeed have the strength and resources to back it up.

Qingfeng chuckled and said, "So what? They dare to be so arrogant when they come to play on someone else's turf. It's time for someone to stand up and teach them a lesson."

"Besides, I can't bear to see the old man actually die on the spot."

Qingfeng clenched his fists, and as the crackling sound rang out, his gaze gradually became serious.

clap clap!

Akashi clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention in the stadium. He turned and looked around at everyone, his golden pupils flickering in and out of view.

"Standing on the neon-lit floor, daring to call us yellow-skinned monkeys, the Akashi family's honor will never be tarnished by others!"

"This is also an opportunity for us... to fight together again."

Akashi stood expressionless in the center of the court, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of gold and red light.

Beside him, Aomine licked his lips with his tongue, like a cheetah about to begin its hunt, while Kise stretched out a big yawn, but his expression was very serious, showing no sign of slackness.

On the other side, Midorima pushed up his glasses, and even the thick lenses couldn't hide his sharp gaze. Only Murasakibara seemed to be still half asleep, but since he was standing there, he naturally made his stance clear.

At that moment, Midorima looked around and asked, "Akashi...aren't those two coming?"

Although no names were mentioned, everyone present knew who Midorima was referring to as "those two guys."

"Yes, of course I'll come. Judging by the timing, it should be about right..."

Before Akashi could finish speaking, a strange noise suddenly came from the stadium door. Everyone looked up and, sure enough, there were two figures, one tall and one short, standing there.

Shiro Rin's light and shadow are indispensable if they want to defeat the Neck-Breaking Dragon Team!

"Smith Marseille, we're late, there's a bit of traffic."

Kuroko spoke calmly, his words, though full of apology, came out of his mouth in a tone devoid of any emotional fluctuation, making it sound strange no matter how you looked at it.

Akashi, however, didn't mind. He turned to look out the window and smiled slightly.

"It's a pity that guy isn't in Japan right now... But with the few of us, we're more than enough. Let's all give it our all! If we really lose next week, who knows how that guy will laugh at us when he gets back..."

"Since they're called the 'Neck-Breaking Dragon Team,' then we'll call ourselves the 'Dragon-Slaying Sword Team.'"

Akashi's choice of team name was quite casual, yet it won praise from everyone present.

From this moment forward, the new Generation of Miracles – Dragon Slayer Team – was officially established!

……

……

On the other side of the world, inside the basketball stadium dedicated to the Chinese national youth team.

The trials and selections between the national team and the national youth team are also coming to an end.

Xiang Yang stood with his hands on his hips, looking at the scoreboard. 99:92, the national team was leading by seven points, and there were less than 30 seconds left.

The final attack still went to the national team. The outcome of this training match is already decided.

Starting in the second half, following Hai Lao's request, Xiang Yang toned down his style of play, which revolved around him as the ball-handling core, and instead shifted his approach to providing support for his teammates.

In the second half, Xiang Yang alone got 12 assists, and with the six he got in the first half, he almost broke the 20 mark in assists!

Unfortunately, the increase in assists did not mean that the national youth team's offense was well-organized. On the contrary, at the beginning of the second half, due to Xiang Yang's sudden change in playing style, the entire national youth team was not able to adapt for a while.

It often happens that Xiangyang passes the ball out, but after passing it around the court, the basketball ends up back in Xiangyang's hands in the end – an awkward situation!

To make matters worse, unlike the chaotic rhythm on Xiangyang's side, the national team's performance in the second half was completely different from that in the first half!

Although it was still the same few players, after Coach Sun's reprimand, each of them showed a significant improvement in their performance!

Zhou Yi stopped fighting Xiang Yang head-on and returned to his most proficient style of play, using his excellent football intelligence and understanding of the game to organize the national team's offense in an orderly manner.

Li Wenyu also made full use of his physical advantages, repeatedly squeezing into the inside of the national youth team and completing several wonderful dunks!

The national youth team's center, Xiao Gao, did not perform well in this game. His 18 points and 15 rebounds seemed good, but the main reason was that Xiang Yang kept feeding him the ball.

With 9 out of 25 shots made, a 36% field goal percentage, his scoring rate is absolutely unacceptable for an inside player.

As time slowly passed, the national team stopped attacking and maintained a 7-point lead until the end of the game.

Coach Sun slowly stood up, picked up the list in his hand, and walked to the national youth team members.

"Those who passed this test are..."

Chapter 193: Were the spots predetermined?

"Those who passed this test are..."

"First place, facing the sun."

Coach Sun looked at the list in his hand and called out the first name.

As Coach Sun called out his name, Xiang Yang suddenly felt several more gazes fixed on him, almost all of them filled with envy.
