Chapter 431: Tiandao's Opportunity

~7 min read 1,383 words

The purple cold electric sparks bloom, making the air on the court cold.

Murasakibara unexpectedly steps into the Zone's domain.

"This..."

"Isn't it said that one of the conditions for stepping into the Zone is to have absolute passion for basketball?"

"How can Murasakibara also enter?"

The people from Touou are dumbfounded.

That Murasakibara, who only stood in the paint and was too lazy to move a step in previous games, actually entered the Zone's domain?

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like someone who loves basketball!

Aomine is also stunned, then his lips curl slightly.

"That is to say, that's how it is."

No matter what he says, being able to step into the Zone's domain means that Murasakibara, this guy, doesn't really hate playing basketball; on the contrary, he likes it very much.

Purple-haired giant baby, let's see how you can be stubborn in the future!

Before, Tiandao and the others mentioned that entering the Zone requires an opportunity; Aomine's is pressure, Murasakibara's is responsibility?

It must be; this Zone is really heaven-defying, requiring someone with Murasakibara's personality to take on responsibility before letting them in.

Just because it's heaven-defying, that's why the Zone is so fierce!

Then what is Tiandao's opportunity to enter the Zone?

The audience discusses it heatedly.

The director only told the audience the conditions that need to be met to enter the Zone.

It clearly states that everyone's opportunity to enter is different, but it has never been explained specifically.

Whether it's Aomine or Murasakibara, they are all inferred by the audience based on existing plots.

Then what is Tiandao's opportunity?

The audience cannot guess, because every time he enters the Zone, he enters whenever he wants; unlike Aomine and Murasakibara, there is no story foreshadowing, so naturally, it cannot be inferred.

The director's team seems to be able to hear the audience's inner voice, immediately giving the screen to two years ago.

"Zone?"

Riko, who hasn't been seen for a long time, appears in the lens again, making countless old fans burst into tears, shouting, "Sister-in-law, we miss you!"

She is wearing cartoon pajamas, learning about the existence of the Zone from Tiandao for the first time.

The director's team takes the opportunity to borrow Tiandao's mouth to introduce the existence of the Zone in detail.

"Yes, a state of excluding all interference outside the court and exerting one's potential to the extreme."

"To enter this domain, 3 conditions need to be met."

"First, have absolute passion for basketball. Second, possess talent recognized by the Zone. Third, find that opportunity to enter the Zone."

"The third one is the most important, because the opportunity for each player to enter the Zone is almost different, always hidden in the deepest part of the player's heart."

"Eh, it sounds like a very troublesome thing." Riko blinks her eyes and asks, "Then what is your opportunity?"

"My opportunity? I don't know." Tiandao says honestly.

It's not concealment, but he really doesn't know; that day he was playing basketball, and suddenly he went in.

Fan Shi in the real world is also stunned when seeing this segment.

He immediately begins to analyze.

"First, we can exclude the two points of team and responsibility; everyone shouldn't have forgotten when Tiandao went to the second gate before, right?"

"Tiandao is the only one who knows the method to enter the second gate, but he directly refused, so fighting for the team can be directly removed."

"Pressure shouldn't be it either; Tiandao is not the type of player Aomine is; he is very clear about the cruelty of the basketball world, unlike pure basketball lovers like Aomine and Kuroko."

"Then let's review what happened during Teikou's second year."

"The first time Tiandao stepped into the Zone's domain was when Aomine was lost; at this stage, Aomine's talent had just awakened, killing gods when gods blocked, killing Buddhas when Buddhas blocked."

"Combined with the conversation between Riko and Tiandao at the time, Riko was worried that Tiandao couldn't beat Aomine. So is it possible that as long as Tiandao wants to win, he can enter the Zone domain? Is his miracle a desire to win? Or is it desire?"

Fan Shi analyzes it, thinking of a very heaven-defying reason.

That is, as long as Tiandao wants to win, he can step into the Zone's domain at will.

The audience listens to his analysis and feels it makes sense.

But the next second, the screen changes.

Tiandao arrives in front of the first gate of the Zone domain.

Then memories flash like a real-life slide show; those are photos of his Generation of Miracles teammates playing basketball.

He looks at the gate in front of him and says the iconic character line.

"I am the strongest!"

*Rumble~*

The Zone's gate opens to him just like that.

Holy crap!

Fan Shi feels he has been backstabbed by the director's team; he analyzed so much, only to find that it was all wrong.

The information and intelligence provided by this plot are already obvious enough.

Tiandao's opportunity to enter the Zone is not Aomine's "pressure," nor Murasakibara's "responsibility," but the "confidence" that is within reach.

As long as he firmly believes that he is the strongest, he can enter the Zone domain at will.

This explains why he can treat the Zone domain like his own backyard.

Because this Generation of Miracles captain is least lacking in confidence.

This is the guy who dared to say he was the strongest on his first appearance!

The animation has been playing for more than ten minutes.

From Kozo Shirogane introducing Murasakibara's opportunity to enter the Zone to revealing Tiandao's opportunity, it seems like a long time has passed.

However, on the court, time has only passed a few seconds.

"*Boom! *"

Hiroshi Yamazaki's shot is undoubtedly swatted down by Murasakibara.

The people from Kirisaki Daiichi see this and rush over to compete for control of the basketball.

As a result, the next second, Ichiya Hara, Kojiro Furuhashi, and Makoto Hanamiya are all knocked flying by Murasakibara; Murasakibara picks up the ball and sprints toward the front court without saying a word.

At this time, the screen gives to Tiandao; he has his back to the camera, but the next second he turns around and disappears from the camera without warning.

Leaving only a silver-white electric spark and the special "Zi" sound effect of the Zone.

By the time the camera shifts, Tiandao and Murasakibara have already passed the other people on the court one by one like wooden stakes.

A feeling never experienced before.

Murasakibara only feels that the movement trajectories of surrounding things have become very, very slow.

The noisy audience's sound cannot enter his ears, his brain becomes clear, all troubles are thrown behind him, and only the basketball and the rim in his hands remain.

"*Boom! *"

He dribbles and changes direction time and time again, passing two Kirisaki Daiichi players in a row.

It looks very ordinary, just dribbling and changing direction to break through.

But you cannot ignore his 208cm height and 99kg weight.

This body type making such movements is faster than a guard; that kind of shock cannot be described in words.

But the moment he steps into the three-point line, Tiandao's figure rushes into his world like a thunderbolt.

"Tiandao?"

"Even if it's Tiandao, I won't lose to you!"

In the time of a breath, the two have already killed their way into the paint.

Murasakibara stomps his feet to stop suddenly; Tiandao follows, completing the stop at 0 frames, and then sees Murasakibara's back leaning over heavily.

Tiandao is pushed back by this monstrous strength.

Tiandao is very clear that he doesn't lose to Murasakibara in strength when concentrating his whole body's power; he loses in model, as his body weight is too different from Murasakibara's.

This is Murasakibara's advantage, but it is also his disadvantage.

Murasakibara pushes Tiandao away, explodes the ball, turns around, and grabs the basketball with both hands to soar into the air.

However, even though he grabs the basketball with such force, he is still stolen by Tiandao.

The moment he is pushed away, the monster on his body has already shown action, going to Murasakibara's left side. ===== CHAPTER 433 =====
