Chapter 419
Although there aren't many people in the NBA who can stop LeBron in his prime, you can still create some pressure for him.
But with Murasakibara, you really cannot find anyone who can contend with him.
That middle school game was a classic; he used brute force to clear the way, and as he played, he broke the National Tournament's single-game scoring record, racking up an astonishing 100 points.
Masako Araki and the people from Yosen never imagined that anyone could be mentioned in the same breath as Murasakibara in terms of strength.
Yet today, the most impossible thing happened right before their eyes.
Murasakibara is held outside the paint by Tiandao and cannot advance a single step.
"Murasakibara, pass the ball quickly!"
Kenichi Okamura rushes over to support, extending his hand to ask for it.
Murasakibara notices and shifts his gaze, while his hands also make a passing feint, accelerating to break through to the other side.
But what is the use?
Tiandao's eyes flash like rotating stars, and Murasakibara's future floats completely into his mind.
He murmurs a word, causing the entire screen to go black.
"Dissect!"
*Slap~*
The basketball is stolen; Murasakibara rushes behind Tiandao in one breath, but the ball is left in place.
"That was intense; I was almost shoved away by you." After dropping these words, Tiandao's posture suddenly drops sharply, and he picks up the basketball, turning into a beam of light as he rushes out.
"Don't even think about it!"
Tatsuya Himuro and Kensuke Fukui come together.
They are perfectly in sync, blocking Tiandao's path from left and right, front and back.
Who knew that Tiandao has no intention of slowing down at all.
A black monster rises from his shadow, looking down at the two people in front of him, the corners of its mouth raised as if mocking their overestimation of their own capabilities.
"*Boom, boom! *"
Tiandao strikes the ball twice, moving in a Z-shape from left to right, threading through the middle of the two.
The clean movements are like they have been rehearsed countless times, flowing and smooth!
Tatsuya Himuro and Kensuke Fukui have no room to resist, watching Tiandao pass through them.
They turn to chase, but Murasakibara is faster than both of them.
Like a track and field athlete, he strides with his legs, finally completing the defensive retreat before Tiandao crosses the three-point line and enters the paint.
Tiandao stops suddenly; he stops suddenly too.
His massive body, over two meters tall, stomps the ground, dragging his body half a meter across the floor.
His expression is fierce, like an angry beast.
But what is even more excessive is yet to come; as Tiandao gathers the ball to jump, from half a meter away, he kicks off the ground, raising his long arms high to pounce out, his massive palm isolating any possibility of the basketball touching the rim.
But the next second.
"*Swish! *"
The ball goes in; the basketball passes through Murasakibara's palm and flies into the net.
The originally furious Murasakibara, upon seeing this shot, has an expression of extreme astonishment.
"Flame Shot?!"
"Flame Shot?!"
The people from Yosen and the master-disciple duo of Alexandra Garcia blurt it out almost simultaneously.
Not because this shot is incredible, but because this shot belongs to Tatsuya Himuro.
"You... you... you..."
Tatsuya Himuro stammers for a long time, unable to say a single word.
He suspects that Tiandao has some relationship with his master, but immediately rejects this conjecture.
The three of them have lived in the US until this year, while Tiandao has always been active in Japan, with no opportunity for intersection.
Then there is only one possibility: he stole his shooting package in a short time after watching his game, just like that Ryota Kise!
"Momoi, is that the shot?" The people from Touou are a bit uncertain.
Before the National Tournament, Satsuki Momoi had told them which players needed attention.
The Generation of Miracles goes without saying, and they are also clear about the Uncrowned Kings; they are all top-tier players.
But besides that, one more person was circled and highlighted by Satsuki.
This person is Tatsuya Himuro!
"Yes," Satsuki admits with a giggle, her mind recalling that night again.
Tiandao soared in front of her like an eagle; that look was really so handsome!
"He hasn't used it against us, against Kaijo, or even in the last game; could it be that..."
"It is just as everyone guessed; Tiandao learned it after the Kaijo battle."
Satsuki briefly tells them about Tiandao's process of learning the Flame Shot.
Hearing that Tiandao replicated the Flame Shot with heaven-defying talent on his first attempt, they suddenly feel their throats go a bit dry.
So, if you have talent, you can just do whatever you want?
Tatsuya Himuro's heart is shaken.
When he parted ways with Kagami, it was because he noticed that Kagami possessed the talent he dreamed of, which made him anxious and led to an irrational decision.
Now, he has once again been dealt a heavy blow by these proud sons of heaven.
That feeling cannot be described in words... ===== CHAPTER 421 =====
