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

In the audience

The members of Shiro Rin and Shutoku were also shocked by Kaijo's actions.

Vulcan's mouth dropped open, and he couldn't help but ask, "You can play basketball like that?"

Hei Zi looked at Xiang Yang with admiration.

Midorima adjusted his glasses, suppressing his shock, and calmly said, "So far, this tactic seems to be very effective."

Takao was speechless, and with his eyes half-open, he complained, "No matter what, this tactic is too outrageous."

……

Hey!

Once again, his layup attempt was blocked by Kaijo's inside player. Aomine numbly walked to the free throw line, waiting for the referee to signal for the free throw.

Even Qingfeng himself didn't notice that after being fouled by Haichang, the electric light in his eyes disappeared. At this moment, he had a broken expression on his face and stiffly threw the ball.

Xiang Yang watched this scene, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. The opportunity to counterattack had arrived. He turned back and gave Coach Takeuchi an OK sign, which Takeuchi understood instantly.

Taking advantage of the break during Aomine's free throws, Kaijo made another substitution, bringing on Kobori and his teammates.

After finishing his free throw, Aomine noticed that Kaijo had made another substitution and muttered to himself, "What are these guys up to now?"

This time is different. Xiang Yang looked at Qing Feng with a big smile, held up his right hand and made a three, then tapped his temple.

The members of Haichang were all taken aback. They understood Xiangyang's meaning. Except for Xiaojue, the other four ran to the three-point line.

Aomine was taken aback, and then he saw Xiangyang pass the ball to Kise.

Oh? Is Kise finally going to attack?

Aomine licked his lips. Even though he was too exhausted to leave the zone, he could still keep Kise in check in his normal state.

While Kaijo was using foul tactics against Aomine, Kise had been resting, and his complexion was much better than before.

Kise lowered his center of gravity, looked at Aomine in front of him, and murmured, "I also really want to have a showdown with you, Aomine, but I can't."

Before Aomine could hear clearly, Kise started moving instantly. Aomine reacted quickly and turned around to follow Kise.

It's no use, Kise. There's no way someone of your skill level can beat me.

Aomine gestured to Kise to show his true skills, but Kise didn't even look at him. As he broke through Aomine into the penalty area, he delivered a behind-the-back pass to Kasamatsu.

Qingfeng was taken aback for a moment, then immediately shouted, "Cover up the defense!"

Touou reacted quickly, and someone immediately rushed to Kasamatsu. Kasamatsu did not hesitate and passed the ball directly to Mukahi at the top of the arc.

When Imayoshi saw Hikaru get the ball, he was about to go up to defend when Kise, who had broken into the paint, blocked his way. Imayoshi shouted anxiously, "Aomine!"

I know without you having to tell me!

Just as Aomine was about to use his speed to cover for Xiangyang, a figure appeared in front of him—it was Kobori!

He had been lurking in the paint all along, waiting for this moment. Despite not being able to shoot threes, he used screens to create three-point opportunities for his teammates.

Xiang Yang smiled slightly. There was no one in front of him. He took a light shot and the three-pointer went in cleanly!

Xiang Yang raised his right hand and tapped his temple with three fingers. This celebratory gesture was also the signal to launch Haichang's trump card tactic—the three-pointer tactic!

Talent: The cheers after scoring a goal

The attack has been initiated, and the overall shooting accuracy has increased.

"Touou, get ready for the three-point counterattack wave!"

Chapter 48 Virgo

beep—

The third quarter ended.

75:

Haichang has taken the lead!

After Aomine exited the zone, the entire third quarter was firmly under Kaijo's control.

Under the "three-point strategy," Haichang's outside shooting frequently caught fire, with multiple players contributing! If you ask which way to catch up when the score is behind is the fastest, it must be the three-pointer.

Looking at the scoreboard, Takeuchi couldn't help but smile. In less than ten minutes, the team had scored a total of 30 points in the third quarter. Such terrifying scoring efficiency—this was Kaisho's trump card—the three-point tactic!

Xiangyang wiped the sweat from his face, saw the coach smiling, and couldn't help but tease, "Hey, coach, why are you smiling so happily? The competition isn't over yet."

Takeuchi paused for a moment, looked at his point guard whom he both loved and hated, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "Touou should be in chaos now. We caught up with their lead of more than ten points in an instant, and even overtook them. Their mentality will definitely be affected. In the fourth quarter, we will go all out and send them home."

After saying that, Takeuchi glanced at Xiangyang again and asked, "Can Aomine still operate a Zone?"

Realizing the coach was asking him, Xiangyang stroked his chin and slowly said, "It should be possible, but there's not much time left. He probably won't use it at the start of the fourth quarter; he'll save it for the final moments."

...

At this point, just as Takeuchi had predicted, the morale of Touou's substitutes was indeed low.

Are you kidding me? A lead of more than ten points, and you've been overtaken in an instant? Who can stand this?

Momoi is currently in a complete mess; she feels like her head is about to burst into flames.

Horn offense, fouling tactics, three-point tactics.

How come you always come up with new tactics every time you play against us? Is Touou your testing ground?

Just as Momoi was racking her brains trying to find a way out of the predicament, Aomine, who was sitting next to her, slowly spoke.

"In the fourth quarter, keep the score close, and in the last five minutes, give me the ball."

Upon hearing this, everyone in Touou had a big question mark above their heads.

What you just said? Was it Aomine who said it?

Imakichi looked at Aomine cautiously and asked, "Aomine...did you just say something?"

Qingfeng's expression stiffened, and he nodded without saying a word.

Imayoshi looked incredulous. If he hadn't misheard, Aomine had just asked them for a favor..., right?

Momoi looked at Aomine with surprise. He, who was usually reluctant to communicate with his teammates, actually took the initiative to discuss countermeasures with them.

Sensing the increasingly strange looks he was receiving from those around him, Aomine awkwardly touched his nose.

He has always been a lone wolf type of ace, and even when he asks his teammates for help, he only asks them to hold on. But even so, Momoi is still very happy because Aomine is finally willing to accept his teammates!

Imakichi was moved to tears; who could understand? My dictatorial ace is finally not mute!

Seeing the intense reactions of those around him, Qingfeng blushed with embarrassment. He said angrily, "Please, do it properly! Keep the score difference within ten points in the last five minutes."

"Don't worry, Ace, we won't let you down."

……

In the fourth quarter,

About to begin

The referee blows the whistle

Kasamatsu, standing outside the boundary, passed the ball to Hikaru. Hikaru took possession of the ball, glanced up at Aomine, and thought, "Didn't make it into the zone? That's within my plan."

Xiangyang was inwardly active, but outwardly remained calm, continuing to pass the ball to Huangse and setting the pace around the three-point strategy.

He wants to widen the gap before Qingfeng enters the zone! To a point where no one can catch up.

At this moment, in the audience

Watching the game, Kagami couldn't help but ask, "Why isn't Aomine attacking anymore? Has he given up? That can't be right."

Kuroko shook his head expressionlessly, denying Kagami's words, and said in a clear voice, "Aomine would never give up."

Hearing this, Takao thoughtfully touched his hair and turned to Midorima, asking, "Shin, can you figure out what Aomine is planning?"

Midorima adjusted his glasses, and under the light, they reflected a glare that stung Kagami's eyes.

"The luckiest zodiac sign today is Virgo. They will turn bad luck into good. Although things may not go smoothly at the beginning, they will eventually get what they want."

Takao looked like he suddenly understood, while the rest of the Shiro Rin group rolled their eyes. You know how to give irrelevant answers.

On the field

Xiangyang glanced at the time every now and then. Six minutes left? This guy should be almost done…

At the start of the fourth quarter, Aomine stopped attacking and only jogged slowly on the court to conserve his energy. After losing Aomine, Touou's offensive power was greatly reduced.

91:80 Haichang Leading

Qingfeng glanced back at the score and muttered, "It's too late..."

Imyoshi was still dribbling the ball, looking for an opportunity. At this moment, his mind was very firm: he must complete the task and bring the score to within ten points within five minutes to create an opportunity for the ace!

"That's enough, bespectacled guy, give me the ball."

A deep voice drifted into Imakichi's ears, and Imakichi instinctively passed the ball.

Aomine received the pass, his eyes sharpened, a flash of purple lightning streaked past, and in an instant, he broke through Kaijo's defense and completed a dunk!

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Xiangyang's face. Was it earlier than I estimated? This guy really is a monster.

He clapped his hands and shouted, "It doesn't matter, we have the advantage, let's slow down and play slowly!"

After speaking, Xiangyang took possession of the ball and slowly dribbled it across half-court, his eyes fixed on Qingfeng to prevent a sudden steal and counterattack. He also tapped his temple with three fingers, signaling his teammates to move.

Kasamatsu seized the opportunity, shook off his defender, and ran to the three-point line. Xiangyang made a cross pass to Kasamatsu. He looked up at the defense and saw that the closest defender to him was Aomine. And at this distance... he could shoot!

After Kasamatsu finished observing, he squatted down, raised the ball, and was about to release it when a figure flashed past. Kasamatsu's eyes widened as he looked at his hand in disbelief, then he turned around abruptly.

Qingfeng had already made the steal, leaped into the air, and dunked the ball into the net.

"this…"

Kasamatsu was still standing there, stunned, about to raise his hand to apologize, when Hikari swiftly passed by him, leaving behind a single sentence.

"Don't stop."

Kasamatsu suddenly realized what was happening and looked closely; Kise had somehow appeared at the serve position.

Kise lowered his body, took a deep breath, and imitated a full-court pass (Kuroko).
