Chapter 384

Before Kise falls to the ground, his eyes are full of panic.

He had clearly completed the perfect imitation, broken through himself, and mastered the Emperor Eye and even the Six Eyes; why was he still tripped?

"Because I am stronger than you, that's all."

Tiandao passes Kise and elegantly flicks the ball into the net.

"Go off the court and rest; don't push your body anymore."

He advises for the second time.

The Kaizō players who walked over with worried faces hear this and finally understand why Kise showed such a pathetic side.

"So this guy was..."

Kasamatsu Yukio suddenly bites his lip hard, his fists clenched tightly.

Why am I so stupid?

Simultaneously imitating the abilities of five Generation of Miracles members—how can a body that is only a teenager's bear that?

What's more, those few monsters each have abilities superior to Kise's.

Kise, it turns out, has always been pushing himself.

Why did I only discover it now?!

"What pushing or not pushing? How do you think I've come this far?"

"I can still play against you like this for a day, Tiandao-cchi!"

Kise struggles to get up, enduring the pain coming from his ankle.

Although it was only a few short minutes, he really used too much ability beyond his limits.

His body, including his brain, has reached its limit state at this time.

Playing a fierce game in such a state, a major injury is only a matter of time.

Kasamatsu Yukio looks gloomy and signals a substitution to the coach.

"Senpai!" Kise calls out anxiously, taking a step forward, but his body staggers.

The Kaizō captain reacts quickly, grabbing his hand to support him so he doesn't fall a second time.

He tries to make his tone as gentle as possible, saying, "That's enough; leave the rest of the game to us."

Upon hearing this, Kise opens his eyes wide, but finally gives up, lowers his head, and lets his sweat-drenched hair cover most of his face.

"What's wrong?"

"Replacing Kise at this time—is it giving up?"

Kaizō's substitution is beyond everyone's expectations.

Isn't replacing Kise at this time equivalent to admitting defeat?

"Riko?" Kiyoshi Teppei turns to his captain, and Aida Riko says with a solemn expression, "Although I can't see it clearly, Kise's current state is very bad."

Really very bad.

Not to mention that the body's various data have declined, the key is that the right ankle has clearly sounded an alarm.

Kise's foot is injured.

"As expected, Kise's body couldn't bear imitating Generation of Miracles-level abilities."

"Did Tiandao anticipate this scene from the beginning? That's why he didn't enter the Zone realm?"

Hyuga Junpei swallows his saliva.

If so, then Tiandao's terror is even beyond their imagination.

"Now it seems, I'm afraid so." Aida Riko thinks for a moment and adds, "At least, he knew from the beginning that even Kise couldn't persist in imitating the Generation of Miracles for too long; maybe five minutes is Kise's current limit."

Kaizō's bench.

Kise covers his head with a towel, not letting people see his face clearly.

However, his tightly bitten lips still betray him.

Lost again!

It hurts more than any time before; even when losing to Seirin, he didn't have such heartbreak.

He doesn't know what happened to the team last year, but from Moriyama Yoshitaka's words, he can roughly imagine how guilty his captain felt at the time.

As a result, this year...

They fell in the round of 16 again, and he failed to help the team win the game.

Why do I suddenly feel a bit sorry for the golden retriever?

Sigh, Kaizō's luck is too bad; they met Tiandao in the round of 16. I feel that as long as they didn't meet Tiandao, Aomine, or Akashi, Kise could at least have made it to the final four.
