Chapter 59

Youji Kasuga's defense had no problems, but the opponent still used a shake to shift Youji Kasuga's center of gravity, suddenly twisting his body and squeezing past him from his right side.

This made Youji Kasuga think to himself, as expected of the national stage.

However, the opposing point guard was also very surprised.

He didn't expect that the defense of just anyone from Baishuiguan would be so difficult to deal with. Wasn't it said that apart from Yukimiya Kazuma, everyone else in Baishuiguan was mediocre?

The opponent's point guard squeezed out space, and Masaki Taketou rushed over.

After attracting the defense, the opponent chose to pass the ball.

The basketball flew to the other side, and a figure cutting into the interior appeared and grabbed the ball. If there were no accidents, this would be a brilliant assist.

Unfortunately—

A black shadow rushed over from behind, it was Yukimiya Kazuma.

Blessed with 'I Love Blocking Dunks', Yukimiya Kazuma's judgment on blocking dunks was very precise.

Slap!

He pressed the basketball down from the air.

Exclamations rang out at the scene, and the audience was conquered by Yukimiya Kazuma's chase-down block.

Liang Huayin grabbed the basketball before the opponent.

"Fast break!"

After completing the block, Yukimiya Kazuma did not forget his next move.

Liang Huayin gave the ball to Yukimiya Kazuma, and Baishuiguan's counterattack began.

Youji Kasuga rushed out in the lead. It was a two-on-two in the front court. The opponent wanted to hit Yukimiya Kazuma while he was dribbling, but was nimbly dodged by Yukimiya Kazuma with a behind-the-back dribble.

One person less, one defending two, falling into a dilemma.

Yukimiya Kazuma scored an easy dunk.

There was more than one person paying attention to Yukimiya Kazuma on the sidelines, and even the coach of Baishuiguan's opponent was very shocked.

Before playing against Baishuiguan, he had seen news about Yukimiya Kazuma.

At that time, he just thought it was a dark horse in the Tokyo region, blown out of proportion. If he wasn't a third-year student, he should have stood out if he was really that good.

However...

Now that they were really playing, he realized.

The magazine Pass Basketball is indeed true and false at times, but the true part is truly true!

On the court, under Yukimiya Kazuma's defense, the opponent's state was directly frozen.

Yukimiya Kazuma used his body to put pressure on the opponent's power forward, and Baishuiguan's interior pressure was full. Seeing this, the opponent's shooting guard threw the ball to the point guard on the outside.

The point guard had just gotten into a posture to catch the ball, but didn't expect Youji Kasuga to suddenly jump out.

Slap!

The ball was cut off by Youji Kasuga before it even reached his hands.

The opposing point guard was careless and didn't expect Youji Kasuga to be so fast.

The basketball flew toward the sideline, and Youji Kasuga went over to save it.

"Wow! Baishuiguan's point guard is so desperate?"

"No, I'm a bit confused..."

"Is Yukimiya Kazuma the point guard for Baishuiguan, or is Youji Kasuga the point guard?"

"Uh..."

The audience in the gymnasium stands chatted happily. They were very satisfied with Baishuiguan's performance. A famous name is not in vain; they are indeed worthy of being a team that can score over 30 against Teiko.

Just look at the Heiping Middle School just now, which was defended to 2 points by Teiko. If you convert it, Baishuiguan is at least equal to '15 Heiping'.

Considering that Baishuiguan only let Teiko score about 100 points, compared to Heiping Middle School being poured 198, nearly twice as much and then multiplied by double, it is directly equal to '30 Heiping'.

The basketball still reached Yukimiya Kazuma's hands through passing.

On this ball, the opposing team had already positioned themselves, and Yukimiya Kazuma continued to ask for a pick-and-roll. He didn't have the obsession of a real man's duel; if he could score easily, why not?

After the pick-and-roll, Masaki Taketou went straight down, and Yukimiya Kazuma observed the situation on the court.

At this time, Yukimiya gave an inductive fake move. This feint to the east and attack to the west successfully tore through the opponent's defense.

Everyone on the other side was induced by Yukimiya Kazuma's line of sight, focusing all their attention on Youji Kasuga.

And Yukimiya Kazuma used a fake pass to deceive everyone in the interior.

Boom~!

A loud explosion!

Yukimiya Kazuma dunked with one hand!

The style of the dunk made everyone at the scene remember Daiki Aomine from the Teiko game just now!

The gymnasium was ignited, and the audience let out a mountain-shaking roar at the Teiko level.

"Timeout!"

The opposing coach couldn't sit still and immediately called a timeout.

The scene was full of joy, and the fans shouted Yukimiya Kazuma's name at the court.

"Awesome!"

"His passing is simply art!"

"That's right, the threat of his passing made him use a fake move to shake everyone away!"

"I heard..."

"Yukimiya Kazuma's greatest strength is defense. In the Tokyo regional qualifiers, he didn't let Daiki Aomine score a single point in the last two quarters."

"Ah?! Are you kidding? You're lying, right?"

"No, that's what the weekly reported, although I also feel like it's fake."

The opposing coach roared on the bench, demanding that the team increase the intensity on Yukimiya Kazuma. They couldn't be suppressed by one person like this anymore.

The first game of the national tournament already felt like it was getting out of control, and he hoped to find a way to solve the problem.

"Don't give him easy shooting opportunities, including passing! Use your body to pressure him, give him confrontation, this kid is not a superman!"

On the Baishuiguan side, Shinmatsu Osamu highly recognized the players' performance. Except for Yukimiya Kazuma, the others were the same. They didn't feel the pressure of the national tournament at all, and everyone played very easily.

Also...

After all, who plays practice matches every day against a high school national-level team like Zenbon, and runs laps if they lose? I guess there's no pressure when they come up.

The timeout ended, and the game restarted.

Baishuiguan's opponent took the initiative to change, and the point guard began to slow down the rhythm.

The interior was their relative strength, and they now began to intentionally look for the center.

The number of times the point guard and shooting guard broke through alone was significantly reduced. Most of the opponent's attacks went through the center, the formation was opened up, and the center was used to force Masaki Taketou.

And he really succeeded in drawing a foul, stepped onto the free-throw line, and steadily hit the free throw.

Baishuiguan's offense.

Yukimiya Kazuma was immediately tightly pressed by the opponent's small forward as soon as he reached the front court.

This person played a bit dirty. During the confrontation, he always used his knees to hit Yukimiya Kazuma's legs intentionally or unintentionally.

Yukimiya Kazuma was very uncomfortable. After giving the ball to Youji Kasuga, he played a screen with Liang Huayin who pulled to one side.

After shaking off the opponent's small forward, Yukimiya Kazuma received Youji Kasuga's pass in the first instance, came to the vicinity of the free-throw line with a set of rhythmic control and dribbling, and threw the ball out.

"A floater? No, it's an alley-oop!"

Masaki Taketou jumped high. Without the interference of the opponent's center, and having polished his body through devil training, he could finally show his ability in the air.

Boom!

If you talk about height, Yukimiya Kazuma definitely jumps higher, but the height of this pass was just right. Masaki Taketou caught the ball comfortably and exploded the hoop with both arms.

The scene was ignited again.

"Wow! That's beautiful!"

"Feels like Baishuiguan is playing so easily."

"Wonderful performance, beautiful air connection!"

"So strong, Baishuiguan!"

Opponent's turn.

The center and the point guard played a pick-and-roll at the arc top. The point guard killed into the basket and used a spin to bypass Masaki Taketou's defense.

Just when the point guard intended to jump up to complete the finish, Yukimiya Kazuma killed out from the side again. His long arms covered the sky and the sun, and he spun the little point guard who was spinning in and fanned him out!

Yukimiya Kazuma, who completed the block, roared and skillfully used 'Rookie Ace's War Cry' to buff the whole team. Baishuiguan's morale was greatly boosted.

The reporter on the sidelines recorded this scene accurately.

Still Pass Basketball, they seem to be particularly keen on recording Yukimiya Kazuma's exaggerated war cries on the court.

One of the reporters was shooting and saying: "So passionate, every time I see Yukimiya Kazuma roar, I feel like my blood is boiling. This is all thanks to He Xiuyang of Zuojia Middle School."

Baishuiguan was boiling.

The audience was boiling.

But Baishuiguan's opponents had scalp numbness. They had just been roared at by the coach off the court before coming up, and now they were roared at by Yukimiya Kazuma again.

There were ten thousand discomforts in their hearts that they didn't know whether to tell or not.

The next round.

When Yukimiya Kazuma was doing a hand-off with Youji Kasuga, the opponent's small forward directly knocked Youji Kasuga flying.

"You motherf***er!"

Yukimiya Kazuma was just about to go up to ask for an explanation, but found that the other party was already pretending to be innocent in front of the referee.

The eyes of the audience at the scene were sharp, and boos erupted immediately, expressing dissatisfaction with his dirty behavior just now.

There were also spectators who knew that this basketball team from Dongtian Middle School in Miyagi Prefecture had heard of the No. 6 small forward, who had always been the villain in the team.

The referee gave Dongtian Middle School a foul. Although Youji Kasuga was angry, he couldn't act out anymore.

The 'intensity' of the confrontation given by Dongtian Middle School was great, and Baishuiguan was naturally not a vegetarian.

For a time, the number of fouls soared, and the game was cut into pieces.

Players from both sides began to frequently step onto the free-throw line.
