Chapter 284

Because this shot, facing Yukimiya Kazuma, was visibly dangerous!

As expected...

Snap~!

Yukimiya Kazuma suddenly pushed off the ground and jumped; the terrifying block height was much like his state at the start of that training match.

But one must know...

The game is now in the fourth quarter.

Tian Lizi's face suddenly turned dark. "Yukimiya Kazuma! Even on that day, when he was merely defending, he hadn't even used his full strength?! What is this..."

Monster!

Yukimiya Kazuma swatted the ball onto Kimura Shinji, who had just inbounded it, knocking it out of bounds.

After landing, he looked at the Midorima before him; the emotion of 'Monster Immersion: Ghost Spider' still lingered. "Still haven't given up?"

"A clown-like shooting performance..."

"... is far inferior to relying on teammates' screen tactics."

"I am already tired of watching it."

Though the words were harsh, Yukimiya Kazuma was absolutely not being sarcastic.

Up until now, Midorima had only successfully sniped one shot from such an ultra-long-range three-pointer; all other points came from Shuutoku's 'Elevator Door' tactic.

It could be seen from his block on the 'Elevator Door' tactic during the first quarter: although Yukimiya Kazuma used 'Receive, Neutralize, Release' to squeeze past the double screen of the 'Elevator Door' and still complete the block, it was merely a matter of his knuckles interfering with the trajectory.

That tactic does possess delay and anti-block capabilities; it can offset the probability of 'I Love Blocking Jump Shots' to a certain degree.

However...

The shooting percentage remained low.

A ratio of nearly three misses for every one make; a 33.3% shooting percentage—this was the report card Midorima Shintaro handed in for this match.

Izumizengan inbounds the ball from the sideline.

This time, Yukimiya Kazuma actively stepped forward to receive the ball, and when Dakou Longzhi tried to come up for a screen, he grabbed the ball with one hand and waved the other.

"There is no need for that."

Seeing the cold expression on Yukimiya's face, Dakou Longzhi immediately realized something.

Halfway to his spot...

He immediately turned and left, opening up space for Yukimiya Kazuma.

Snap~

Snap~

At the top of the three-point arc, the signature upright dribbling of 'Monster Immersion: Asuka: Startled String'.

One after another...

As if pounding on Midorima's heart.

(Zhao Dehao) Pressing up to force a defense...

Easily sidestepped.

Pressing again...

Between the legs, lateral shift.

Unnoticed, the wings of the Snow-White Asuka had already spread, completely engulfing Midorima!

"Marking you across the entire court until now, my stamina still has a surplus."

"Do you know what that means?"

The moment the words fell.

Monster Immersion: Asuka...

Bow Concealed!

Yukimiya Kazuma suddenly launched himself from beyond the three-point line; Midorima jumped to block, his reaction not slow, at least faster than any opponent Yukimiya had encountered since high school!

However...

Reflected in Midorima's glasses, Yukimiya Kazuma's body grew farther and farther away from him.

Until the basketball left his hand!

"It's over."

"Midorima."

"Your three-pointer cannot win."

Swish~ Xin!

The three-pointer fell through the net with a hollow sound!

Wild Asuka circled behind Yukimiya Kazuma; in that instant, Midorima seemed to hear that mocking, challenging cry!
