Chapter 322
Because not every player possessed a brain as complex as hers and Hanamiya Makoto's.
"In this way, Touou has fallen into a passive position."
"Heaven truly has no eyes; why did it have to be that Hanamiya Makoto?"
The Seirin members shouted about the unfairness.
Satsuki's intelligence had already made them suffer enough in the previous match.
"Because Hanamiya Makoto's IQ is very high."
"I know his IQ is high, but at a time like this, you shouldn't be praising him. Don't forget how you got injured; get your stance straight, you idiot!"
Hyuga Junpei slapped Kiyoshi Teppei on the head as he returned.
"That may be true, but that guy Hanamiya is truly strong."
Kiyoshi Teppei rubbed his head, yet his words could not hide his admiration for Hanamiya Makoto.
Before the Generation of Miracles, Hanamiya Makoto's steals could be called the best in the country.
And what helped him achieve this was precisely his brain, which was complex to the extreme.
"Constantly reading the opponent's tactical intentions and making timely changes."
"This match, no matter from which angle you look at it, is a showdown of an ultra-high level."
Hearing this, everyone remained silent.
Just as Kiyoshi Teppei said, the level displayed in this match was far beyond their Seirin.
Top-tier individual ability, top-tier tactical literacy—it made this match appear so high-class.
The point gap reached 5 points.
Harasawa Katsunori was thinking of countermeasures on the sidelines.
Imayoshi Shoichi and the other players on the court were watching their opponents nervously.
They had never thought that this match would be this difficult to play.
Aomine was one thing, but even the captain Imayoshi Shoichi was being suppressed, which made the ball movement for the entire Touou team difficult.
That steal by Hanamiya Makoto was a very effective deterrent.
He used his steals to make Imayoshi Shoichi become timid.
"That's why you half-baked existences are truly an eyesore."
Aomine circled to the outside of the three-point line, letting Imayoshi Shoichi pass the ball to him.
He had had enough of these redundant guys.
"Basketball is a sport you only understand after playing it."
He bent his waist, grabbing the ball with both hands between his legs.
It was not a standard triple-threat stance, yet there were no flaws on his entire body.
Suusa Yoshinori saw this and pulled out, wanting to set a screen for Aomine, but was scolded by Aomine, "Get lost, your light is too dim!"
As he spoke, a violent aura began to permeate from him.
"What is this?!"
Kagami, who possessed latent wild talent, was the first to sense the change in Aomine.
It was full of wildness, as if a black panther had jumped out from Aomine.
"Wildness!" Kuroko provided the answer.
"Wildness? What is wildness?"
"A born talent possessed by only a very small number of people."
Kuroko's expression was solemn.
He told the Seirin members the information about wildness.
"Even in Teikou, among the Generation of Miracles, that is a talent unique only to Aomine-kun."
"Even Tiandao doesn't have it?"
"No?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
And on the court, Aomine had already begun his move.
He had become faster and stronger.
His movements, which were already complex to the extreme, had actually gone a step further, making it impossible for eyes to keep up.
Tiandao rotated his Six Eyes, searching for the correct answer amidst the complex, heavy movements.
He reached out his hand again, slapping toward the position of the basketball.
"Solved!"
"Snap!"
He had seen through it again; amidst the chaotic movements, he had found the truth.
The basketball was slapped away by him.
But Aomine—one could see him react instantly the moment the ball left his hand.
That instinct and ball sense, exaggerated to the extreme, allowed him to swing his arm immediately, grabbing back to regain control of the basketball, and using the momentum to complete a behind-the-back dribble to change direction.
All of this happened almost simultaneously.
By the time people came to their senses, Aomine had already crossed Tiandao and entered the three-point line.
"He got past!"
"Aomine won!"
The Touou bench was excited, including Harasawa Katsunori, who clenched his fists.
From the first quarter, they, Touou, had been in a passive state.
The biggest element was the showdown between Tiandao and Aomine, where Tiandao had always held the upper hand.
Now it was different; if Aomine could turn the situation around, the momentum would shift toward Touou.
"This is not enough!" Satsuki was not as optimistic as Harasawa Katsunori.
"What do you mean? Could it be that Tiandao also possesses the same talent as Aomine?"
"Little Tiandao doesn't have wildness, but he has..."
On the court, Aomine had already held the ball and charged into the paint, ignoring the help defense from Seto Kentaro, leaping high to perform a mountain-splitting dunk.
But the next second, a humanoid monster of Kuroko's size suddenly rose and enlarged, placing itself between the rim and Aomine.
Then, Tiandao's arm struck the basketball fiercely, stopping Aomine's violent dunk.
"What is this again?!" Kagami's body shook; he had actually seemed to see a monster?
"A monster!"
"Huh?"
"What Kagami saw is Tiandao-kun's monster!" ===== CHAPTER 324 =====
