Chapter 222

The entire process was in his own perfect rhythm.

Yamazaki Hiroshi lunged at him immediately, but he was still a beat slow.

*Swish!*

The ball went into the net in response.

"Momoi Satsuki’s intel... has been broken?!"

Hyuga Junpei’s eyes widened; such perfect defense, and it couldn't stop him?

He had no idea what was happening.

Only the members of the Generation of Miracles understood what was going on.

"That pass just now..."

"It’s the pass we used to receive all the time."

"In other words..."

Murasakibara stopped eating his snacks and stared blankly at Akashi.

"It’s the Akashi-kun from before!" Momoi’s eyes were smiling.

That familiar feeling had returned once again.

"Nice shot, a very good shot, Mibuchi!"

Akashi ran past his teammate with a smile, the corners of his mouth turned up, rarely encouraging his teammate.

In the past, this would have been almost impossible; that Akashi would only command them to do things according to his orders in an overbearing way.

But precisely because of this, it was even more exciting.

Mibuchi Reo felt inexplicably fired up and started running behind Akashi!

Turning his head, Akashi called for a screen again to ensure his pass wouldn't be intercepted.

This time, his target was Hayama Kotaro!

Hanamiya Makoto sneered and moved forward, only to find that before he could stand his ground, Hayama Kotaro had already killed past him and scored a layup in the paint.

Hanamiya Makoto already realized the severity of the problem.

"Hey, what the hell is going on, big star!"

He could somewhat feel the changes happening in Akashi, and the passes had also become different; that was simply the highest praise for a point guard.

Akashi was using his passing to lead his teammates to launch an attack.

"Don't worry about it, just play according to the current rhythm."

"Did you prepare that because you knew this would happen?"

Hanamiya Makoto initially thought that was their Kirisaki Daiichi’s trump card.

Now it seemed more like something Tiandao had prepared to counter Rakuzan and defeat Akashi.

He could feel that Rakuzan’s current offensive fluidity was astonishing; if they kept playing like this, they would sooner or later be led by Akashi to break the 80% boundary.

"Scared?"

"Who’s scared!"

Hanamiya Makoto was annoyed, threw the ball to Tiandao, and ran to the front court.

He just felt that not being able to crush Rakuzan was a pity.

"In the end, I still have to risk my life against Rakuzan; it’s so annoying!"

The others from Kirisaki Daiichi were also ready by this time.

Tiandao controlled the ball, didn't call for a screen, but used his personal ability to break free directly.

Hayama Kotaro, whose state had improved significantly, abandoned Hanamiya Makoto and rushed over immediately.

He felt that he should be able to cooperate with Akashi to stop Tiandao now.

But that was just a feeling!

Before Tiandao reached him, he flicked the ball into the paint.

There, Hanamiya Makoto was cutting in rapidly.

The basketball bounced off the floor, and Hanamiya Makoto appeared at that exact spot; after receiving the ball, he didn't need to adjust and was led by the pass to complete the layup.

"This..."

"A pass as perfect as Akashi-kun’s!"

Kise exclaimed, and the others stood frozen on the spot.

They felt in their hearts that something terrible was about to happen.

With the return of Akashi’s main personality, Tiandao suddenly started passing the ball.

Everything revealed something unusual.

The state of Kirisaki Daiichi and the other Rakuzan players was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If they continued to play like this, even they couldn't predict what the game would become.

The offensive momentum of both teams suddenly became fierce, the speed of scoring began to increase, and it was getting faster and faster.

At this moment, everyone felt that a great storm was brewing on the court.

Finally.......

*Zzz~*

*Zzz~*

*Zzz~*

"........."

Ten bolts of cold electricity bloomed simultaneously without any warning.

The scene was spectacular yet chilling.

Players from teams like Too, Shutoku, Seirin, Kaijo, Yosen, etc., all felt a bone-chilling cold sweep through their bodies.

What had they seen?

All the players from Kirisaki Daiichi and Rakuzan had stepped into the realm of the Zone.

"Impossible!"

"Isn't it said that the realm of the Zone can only be touched by those with the talent of the Generation of Miracles?"

Many people felt crazy, unable to believe what they were seeing.

"That’s not the real Zone!"

"That’s right, it’s more like the feeling of breaking the 80% boundary; at most, they can only exert 90% of their physical potential."

"They were passively led into the realm of the Zone by Tiandao and Akashi’s passes!" Aida Riko bit her thumb, "But..."

Although it wasn't the real Zone, it was still shocking enough!

The reason 80% is a boundary is because, normally, players find it hard to break it.

Only in very rare cases will players unconsciously break this boundary and stimulate their potential to 90%.

This is enough for a player to have a highlight performance and a massive outburst, influencing the result of a game.

Such a state is rare and hard to find; a player might not encounter it even once if they play through an entire national tournament.

And Tiandao and Akashi?

They can not only break this boundary at will themselves, but they can also stimulate their teammates’ potential with their passes.

A built-in BUFF of strong team strength!

"What kind of monsters are these!" **CHAPTER 471**

10 bolts of lightning symbolizing the Zone bloomed simultaneously, making the scene feel chilling.

Even though, apart from Tiandao and Akashi, other players could only explode with 90% of their potential at most, it was still incredibly shocking.

By now, people were no longer surprised that the Generation of Miracles could step into the Zone realm.

Even that Tiandao and Akashi could freely control the Zone didn't feel strange.

They just had such high talent.

But putting themselves aside, the ability to lead teammates into the Zone realm was stunning.

Akashi looked at Tiandao in front of him and couldn't help but smile, a bit bitterly.

"Let’s begin, Akashi, the second round!"

Tiandao spoke quietly, like a referee in a race firing a shot into the sky to signal the start. **CHAPTER 472**
