Chapter 242

And the most heavyweight addition, Taiga Kagami.

"What's up with this guy? He has the oppressive aura of a wild tiger!" Riko Aida stared blankly at Taiga Kagami.

The newly arrived Taiga Kagami looked down on Japanese basketball immensely.

He grew up playing basketball in the US, and US basketball is universally recognized as the best in the world.

"Spare me the talk, I'll just sign my name and head back." Taiga Kagami interrupted Riko Aida's introduction to the basketball club, saying, "Besides, Japanese basketball is the same everywhere."

Then he left, leaving Riko Aida and the others to lament that a real deal had come to the basketball club.

That kind of aura doesn't lie, and since he's a returnee, his strength is likely guaranteed.

Thinking about it, everyone felt quite happy; there would be a powerful teammate for the new semester.

At this moment, Shinji Koganei brought out another application form, "Here, this is the application I forgot to collect."

"Oh? There's another one? Let me see." Riko Aida took it and the first thing she saw were the four big characters: "Teiko Junior High."

"The school attended in junior high was Teiko Junior High..."

"Teiko?!"

Riko Aida stood up abruptly, and the others crowded around immediately.

In the current high school basketball scene, the name Teiko is truly too famous.

Not only did they complete an unsurpassable three-peat in junior high, but the scores in every single match were incredibly bloody.

Known as the strongest team in the history of junior high basketball, bar none!

"Teiko? Could it be *that* Teiko?!"

"And it's a first-year freshman!"

"The Generation of Miracles?!"

The others became excited instantly, a hundred times more enthusiastic than when Taiga Kagami arrived.

This high school girl knows her stuff!

She appeared in the prequel too, right? I seem to remember seeing her!

She did appear. I was wondering why the production team gave a background character so much screen time; turns out she's a character for the main story.

Tiandao and the others are truly awesome; a single name makes ordinary people excited to death.

Think about what they did in the past; if it were me, I'd be excited too! What did Tiandao and the others do?

In the first year, they won by dozens of points per game, and by the second year, they had beaten many people to the point of collapse, causing them to quit basketball.

The third year was even more absurd, dropping 200 points in a single game and breaking record after record.

Seeing them look so inexperienced, the audience felt quite satisfied.

"Who is it?"

"Could it be that Tiandao Jingyan?"

Everyone's eyes looked as if they could spit fire.

According to their knowledge, most members of the Generation of Miracles chose a powerhouse school.

Only the leader of the Generation of Miracles, Tiandao Jingyan, no one knew where he went to play.

For a moment, the people at Seirin felt the excitement of being hit by a jackpot.

However, when they saw the name, it didn't show Tiandao Jingyan, but Tetsuya Kuroko.

"Tetsuya Kuroko?"

"Dare?"

Never heard of him.

Riko Aida had watched Teiko's matches, and the one who left the deepest impression was, of course, that Teiko demon star.

Then there were Aomine, Akashi, Midorima, and Murasakibara; she had absolutely no impression of this person named Tetsuya Kuroko.

Could he be someone riding the coattails of a championship?

Her enthusiasm faded significantly.

The camera shifted directly to the basketball club, where the freshmen had gathered.

Riko Aida began to show her ability; the first thing she did was make everyone take off their shirts.

And through simple observation, she accurately gave advice to the players.

Training players is also one of the coach's jobs, and in this regard, Riko Aida has a unique advantage.

Shun Hyuga took the opportunity to introduce the background of their head coach to everyone.

Holy crap? Eye of Data?

It's activated again; Momoi is like that too, the women in this show are not simple!

Except for Riko, right? Only Riko doesn't understand basketball! (

But she has a boyfriend who understands basketball very well!

That's *too* well...

The audience quickly remembered Riko Tiannei. Tiandao looked at the barrage and couldn't help but glance at the crystal hanging around his neck.

"You must be happy that so many people remember you."

The plot continued, and soon it was evening.

Taiga Kagami and Kuroko had their first contact on a street court.

Taiga Kagami was very curious about the Generation of Miracles because the people in the basketball club at the time weren't faking their shocked expressions when they heard Kuroko was also a member of Teiko and had been selected for the first string.

They even forgot about him, a big returnee.

There must be something he didn't know yet.

So Taiga Kagami played a game with Kuroko, but the result left him greatly disappointed.

"I think Kuroko was trying to confirm Kagami's ability here."

"Kuroko himself has no independent offensive ability; his strength is misdirection, he's a support character. To play against the Generation of Miracles, he needs a helper."

"But this Taiga Kagami, no matter how you look at him, is so ordinary?!"

Fan Shi, watching until now, still hadn't discovered how strong Taiga Kagami was.

After all, we've been watching Tiandao and the others cheat their way through.

This barrage makes a lot of sense.

Until the scrimmage the next day, Fan Shi didn't see anything outstanding about Kagami.

He was strong, but compared to the Generation of Miracles, he wasn't distinct enough.

In terms of personality, he's a typical 3.5-style "sharp tongue, soft heart," too flat.

You have to know, the Generation of Miracles are all very imposing.

"I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm biased. I feel like the new characters are all a bit ordinary, not as outstanding as the Generation of Miracles. Especially the awakened Tiandao, Akashi, and Aomine; they are much more imposing than Kagami."

This is the consensus of most people; in the scrimmage, Kuroko performed with his usual stability, while Kagami was just ordinarily strong.

At the end of the episode, Kuroko and Kagami happened to be at a fast-food restaurant, and after eating, they walked onto the street together.

Taiga Kagami asked curiously, "How strong are the Generation of Miracles?"

This was still the question he cared about most, because the people around him kept mentioning this name repeatedly.

"If I played against them now, what would happen?" He looked at Kuroko seriously.

"You'd be insta-killed."
