Chapter 25: Goal: Defeat the Generation of Miracles, All-Japan Championship!

~6 min read 1,004 words

Too fast!

This white-haired guy!

Whether dribbling or stealing, he's too fast!

From the moment the one-on-one began, only this thought remained in Kagami Taiga's mind.

And Yukimiya Kazuma, standing opposite him, though wearing a look of disappointment on his face, was actually overjoyed inside.

Facing his own fully realized attributes, paired with the 'Passing and Control Master' badge, and his master-level understanding targeting both his own and the opponent's ball handling, Kagami Taiga appeared completely helpless before him, looking extremely weak!

But in reality, Kagami during the Third Year of Middle School Era, while showing absolutely no signs of 'blooming' yet, possessed physical attributes approaching the Miracle level that were solid and real.

One can only say, attributes are attributes, skills are skills; possessing attributes without skills of the same level, the current Kagami, let alone the Generation of Miracles, might not even be able to withstand the Unrivaled Five.

Ryo Aomine's 'Heaven', 'Earth', and 'Void' three shooting forms, Koganei Koganei's 'Thunder Dribble' and 'Wildness', Nagisa's 'Muscle'...

These three, who have already formed a bloc at Luoshan and wreaked havoc in the Chinese Basketball World to taste the flavor of the championship, Yukimiya Kazuma can be certain that the current Kagami definitely cannot defeat them.

Seeing the look in Yukimiya Kazuma's eyes, even though the other party said nothing, Kagami Taiga still understood the ill intent in the other's gaze and stepped forward to defend, his brows tightly furrowed.

The next second.

Snap~!

Snap~!

Snap~~!

Super-fast continuous crossovers, as if every move was aimed at stabbing his center of gravity, both precise and fast!

Then...

The figure before his eyes flashed!

The dribbling of the 'Passing and Control Master' badge, combined with the greatly increased speed, was already beyond what the current Kagami could keep up with.

Perhaps only the Kagami whose attributes were greatly increased again after the Seirin training camp in the future could manage it.

Breaking through the defense!

In the instant he brushed past Yukimiya Kazuma, Kagami seemed to feel a chill, his whole body freezing in place and shivering!

No matter how desperately he tried, he simply could not keep up with the other person's dribbling!

"Damn it!"

In the blink of an eye.

Clang~!

Yukimiya Kazuma swept past Kagami Taiga, entered the restricted area, executed a small 'gliding' dunk, and forcefully slammed the ball into the hoop, repaying more than one arrow's worth of debt from the meditation training!

Hanging on the rim with one hand, Yukimiya turned his back to Kagami, revealing a quite unreserved smile, which made Yukimiya, who wanted to maintain the posture of 'I am a basketball master', adjust for a long time before letting go of the rim and landing.

"It's already over~"

"Time to go back, Masaki~"

Takenishi Masaki: "..."

Takenishi Masaki: "Was that... too fast?!"

"I said it would end quickly, didn't I?" Yukimiya Kazuma, with hands in pockets and not knowing who the opponent was, turned around, looking as if he had swapped for a cold 'Facing Qingfeng face', "An overwhelming victory."

This left Kuroko Tetsuya standing nearby staring blankly.

"Hey!"

"Wait!"

"You, do it again!"

Yukimiya Kazuma picked up his ball bag and shook his head, "What nonsense are you talking? Didn't we say before, we're going to the All-Japan Middle School Championship tomorrow, only playing three rounds with you."

Kagami Taiga paused for a moment upon hearing this, scratching his head, "Um... what is 'All-Japan'?"

"The National Middle School Basketball Tournament, commonly known as 'All-Japan'." Yukimiya Kazuma turned to look at Kuroko Tetsuya, pointed at him and said: "The highest tournament in middle school basketball. By the way, the Teikou this student belongs to has already won back-to-back middle school championships; this year is their... and also our, final year."

Kagami Taiga widened his eyes, looking at Kuroko Tetsuya with disbelief.

This person...

Back-to-back middle school championships?

That means that white-haired guy has never won a single championship.

Then how strong must this guy who looks weak and fragile be?!

Kagami Taiga never expected that domestic middle school basketball would be of such intensity!

Yukimiya Kazuma, having thoroughly trained Kagami in military fashion, and mischievously helping Kuroko leave a deep impression on Kagami, knowing that when Kuroko enters Seirin, the opening show-off scene will likely be greatly diminished, thought it was quite amusing.

Yukimiya Kazuma, feeling completely refreshed, beckoned to Takenishi Masaki beside him, and the two prepared to leave.

"Hey!"

"My name is Kagami Taiga."

"What are your names?"

Kagami held the basketball with one hand, asking without losing his composure despite losing the match.

Upon hearing this, Yukimiya Kazuma did not look at Kagami, but instead turned to look at Kuroko Tetsuya.

"Bai Shui Gymnasium Middle School..."

"Yukimiya Kazuma."

"Goal: Defeat the Generation of Miracles, All-Japan Championship."

Obviously, Kagami Taiga did not know what the Generation of Miracles was, but looking at Yukimiya Kazuma's expression, he felt the other was talking about something very powerful.

And Yukimiya's words obviously struck Kuroko Tetsuya deeply; only after a long while, urged by Kagami Taiga, did he come back to his senses.

"Kuroko Tetsuya."

Having received a response, Kagami asked one more question about the location of the All-Japan tournament; whether due to the impact of the duel just now, he also left the court, arriving in a rush and leaving in a rush.

Only Kuroko Tetsuya was left, standing at the entrance of the park court, with that snow-white hair flying as he dribbled and a pair of amusing red forked eyebrows on the other side drifting through his mind.

In the distance.

Over here, where Yukimiya Kazuma and Takeno Takehiko had already walked far ahead.

Just before reaching the intersection where the two were to part ways, Takehiko Takehiko still could not help but ask, "Kazuma, is my look... very unnoticeable?"

Yukimiya Kazuma wore an expression of "Why do you say that?", then seriously took a closer look before offering a relatively reasonable evaluation, "Is it possible that the problem isn't the look?"

Takehiko Takehiko: "?!".
