Chapter 477

"So I said I can't explain it clearly." Satsuki recalls the experience of that day and says, "In a basketball match, whether it's one-on-one or one-on-many, you think before you act, right?"

"That's for sure; even for Aomine, his ball sense and instincts are so excellent, but the one that truly sends instructions to the body is always the brain." Midorima adjusts his glasses.

This is the most basic principle of the sport of basketball.

Even for a hothead like Hayama Kotaro, he thinks about which side has a higher success rate before acting.

"Infinite Void is an ability aimed at this kind of thinking; it injects a large amount of information into you."

"For example, if you do this, Little Tiandao will do that, and so on."

"You mean the simulated battle in the brain before acting?"

Aomine rolls his eyes at his childhood friend.

Even for him, every offense and defense involves a simulation, because human reaction and on-the-spot adaptability are limited.

In order for the body to react in time, the brain simulates in advance and sends instructions to the body based on what eventually happens.

"Yes, that's it."

"So what? What does this have to do with Tiandao's ability?"

"The relationship is that Little Tiandao can destroy all such simulations."

Satsuki shares with them the feeling of facing Infinite Void.

No matter how the brain simulates, it can't find a way to "solve the problem," and the brain keeps telling you "you can't win."

That feeling is suffocating and desperate.

"Actually... could there be such a thing?"

"I was also surprised at first; my brain couldn't stop thinking, it couldn't stop at all." Satsuki pats her chest, a lingering fear.

Midorima, however, feels that what's scary is not being unable to stop thinking, because humans are creatures that are always thinking.

What's truly scary is that no matter how you simulate, it's a dead end, which means no matter what choice you make, Tiandao has a way to crack it.

"Then Little Akashi..."

"Akashi has the Emperor Eye, his overall view is better than anyone else's, so he shouldn't become an idiot like Satsuki."

"Da-chan, you're so annoying, who are you calling an idiot."

Satsuki is unhappy, but Aomine ignores her complaints.

He says, "However, if it's such a massive information shock, even the most developed brain will lag."

"In other words," Midorima adds the final sentence, "Akashi's actions will slow down, becoming even less matched to Tiandao's actions!"
