[Black Basket] On the Victory of the Emperor

106: Opposition

The moon hid behind the clouds, and the street could only be illuminated by two rows of street lamps.

Vulcan turned his head to look at Akashi's side face, and as he walked forward and passed the street lights around him, the position of the shadow on Akashi's face was constantly changing.

However, Vulcan could clearly see the emotion in Akashi's right eye.

Although Vulcan has a very sensitive intuition, he is really weak in reading people's emotions and eyes, but now he understands.

Akashi was smiling, not just on his face, but also in his heart.

In that red eye, there is no sharpness, but only helplessness, pampering and joy for the miraculous generation.

——The relationship between the generations of miracles is really good.

Vulcan thought of that once in a while.

"what happened?"

Fire God didn't hide his sight from observing him at all, Akashi noticed it easily, he turned his head to look at Fire God and asked.

Vulcan looked at Akashi's strange eyes, and a question suddenly popped up in his heart.

"Akashi, do you still want to play with them?"

Vulcan's question was just an unintentional question out of curiosity, but this question hit the point.

Vulcan heard a lot from Heizi about how the generations of Miracle get along, and he really saw that they have a good relationship, but as to why everyone parted ways after entering high school, just The fragmented past that Heizi told him cannot be pieced together completely.

However, Vulcan thinks that they should still want to play together, just like him and Himuro, even if they have to confront each other, but if possible, Vulcan still wants to play with Himuro, just like when they were in the United States. A strong enemy is like a brother, and the match between the two is also hearty.

However, the battle between the generations of miracles seems to be a little different. Vulcan doesn't know the inside story, but he always feels that there is a strange atmosphere between the generations of miracles.

--In no mood.

Akashi wants to answer Vulcan in this way, because the generations of miracles are too strong, their edge is too sharp, and the team can no longer be united together. It is better to be opponents with each other, and they can also compete heartily on the field.

Akashi thinks this is the best way for everyone. After leaving Teiko, they met the best partner and the right team. It is this way that everyone can give full play to their talents. .

But Akashi couldn't say the answer that came to his lips.

Not because of anything else, just because no one, whether he or the other generations of miracles, has forgotten that sweet and painful time.

——It’s time to let go completely.

Akashi sighed inwardly.

Although he told himself to let them go their separate ways, Akashi always paid attention casually, as if they were still his own team members.

Akashi has not answered Vulcan's question yet, but he thinks he will be able to give the answer soon, after the end of the Winter Cup.

***

The day of the semifinals.

According to the schedule, Naksan VS Shutoku is the first match, followed by Seirin VS Kaichang. These two games are very interesting, and the audience is much more than the previous games. .

Most of those who know or are interested in the Generation of Miracles have read Monthly Basketball's interview with them when they were in junior high school, and at the moment before the game started, they couldn't help but think of two passages in the interview.

Among the teammates with Akashi's best relationship is Midorima, and the teammate with the best relationship with Midorima is Akashi.

It's not just a battle between friends, it's a battle between captain and vice-captain, and, for some, it's a battle between the Akashi family and the Midorima family.

"Mom, hurry up!"

The girl in blue and white sailor clothes hooked her mother's arm and urged, and in front of the two, a handsome man with green hair walked unhurriedly.

"Father, find a place!"

Sister Midorima with long green ponytails looked around nervously.

Mrs. Lvjian looked at her happy little daughter, and found a seat for the whole family with sharp eyes.

"Ah, the match between my brother and Xiaozheng's brother is about to start, who should I support, I'm so entangled!"

The girl twirled the ends of the twin ponytails with her index finger, frowning and hesitating.

Lu Jianming on the side gave her a cold look, and the younger sister Lu Jian suddenly dared not speak.

"Really, Brother Xiaozheng obviously didn't miss anything."

Sister Lujian muttered softly in dissatisfaction.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Lujian shook her head and made a gesture of hissing at her, and she settled down.

Although his son was in the arena, Akira Midorima didn't look at the arena at this time, he was scanning the auditorium, as if he was looking for someone.

But he was disappointed.

The time for the start of the game is getting closer, and there are more and more spectators around. There is no shortage of people's opinions and commentary on the game.

"Luoshan High School has been the champion of all major competitions in the past five years. Although the opponent is Xiude, one of the three kings, compared with the legendary 'opening emperor' Luoshan High School, it is still slightly inferior, right? "

Someone near the Midorima family said so.

Akira Midorima frowned, and looked over displeased, but the man continued to chat with his little friend without noticing it.

"But Xiude has Midorima, doesn't he? That three-pointer is so cool!"

The man also vividly gestured to Midorima's three-point shooting posture, although it was not standard at all.

"That's right, in terms of scoring, the three-pointer really has the advantage, and Lu Jian's three-pointer is simply a foul!"

Another echoed.

However, even after hearing the words of praise for Midorima, Akira Midorima's complexion was not much better, and his brows were even more wrinkled.

Sister Lujian took a peek at Akira Lujian, and thought strangely in her heart.

The game is about to start, and Sister Midorima looked at the teams lined up in two rows, and finally decided to cheer for Midorima, after all, they are the closest people.

——Of course, if Brother Xiaozheng lags behind, I will definitely cheer him on!

Sister Lujian thought secretly.

"I will definitely win, Akashi."

Although the positions of the two are not facing each other, at this moment, their sense of presence is the strongest, and at least for a short while, they only see each other in their eyes.

"That's impossible, Midorima."

Even his former teammates, Akashi could say mercilessly, "Have you ever asked me to surrender?"

Midorima knows that Akashi is talking about shogi, but the fact that he can't take the initiative to admit defeat will be the same in basketball and other things, because Akashi has never surrendered like anyone.

"Next is the first match of the semi-finals of the Winter Cup trials, the match between Luoshan High School and Xiude High School, starting now!"

As soon as the game started, it was full of gunpowder.

After Midorima touched the ball, he directly shot a three-pointer, trying to give Luoshan a blow to Akashi.

"As agreed, let me tell you what defeat is."

Midorima faced Akashi with an unprecedentedly strong posture, his eyes were full of seriousness, which was also unprecedentedly serious.

The meaning of this game is far more than what the audience sees, and it is more than what Akashi knows.

——According to the agreement, I will win you.

Midorima's eyes reflected Akashi's figure, but when he returned to defense, his eyes drifted to the audience involuntarily.

Akira Midorima saw the firmness and confidence in Midorima's eyes, just like when they made the agreement last night.

The second goal came soon, Midorima was no longer distracted, he devoted himself to this game, this game that weighed on him.

Although Xiude's first goal surprised the audience, for Naksan's players, they will not be shaken by it at all.

As expected, Luo Shan scored the second goal.

Neither team was behind, and the score was rising steadily. Whenever there was a point difference between Naksan and Xiutoku by one or two points, Midorima would use his three-pointer to bring the score back.

Facing an opponent like Luoshan, Lujian didn't dare to relax at all, because once they were pulled away by two or three points, they would be like gluttons, pulling more and more points away.

But also because of this situation, the scores of the two teams are very stalemate, and the number of goals is generally not many, but this is only the first quarter.

Midorima glanced at the scoreboard. They are now one point behind Luoshan, and the first quarter is almost over.

Midorima calculated that if he could score a three-pointer at the last moment, at least he would be able to overwhelm Luoshan at the end of the first quarter.

But he thought too easily. Although he made all his last three-pointers, it's a pity that he didn't expect that he left too much time.

It is enough for Akashi and Luoshan.

Takao's defense, known as Hidetoku's light and shadow, is no threat in front of him. Takao is difficult to catch Akashi's actions. When he comes back to his senses, Akashi has passed the ball with a clean movement. I don't know when he is waiting near the basket. In the hands of Genwu Valley.

Goal in, whistle blows.

Naksan tied with Xiude in the end.

Takao recalled Akashi's movement when he broke through him, that unswerving breakthrough definitely did not refer to talent, it was the effect that could only be achieved after countless training.

But... Akashi's performance in the first quarter was not too outstanding. Although his movements were smooth and neat, he was a good PG, but it seemed to be nothing more than that.

For a moment, even though Takao had been in contact with Akashi, he had some doubts as he had never seen Akashi's skills. Akashi...is he really the same genius as the generation of miracles?

Even though his aura is extraordinary, his strength did not give Takao a feeling of being unreachable, as if he could achieve it with a little more effort.

Takao looked at Midorima, and Midorima still had that expression of seriousness and concentration that he had never seen before. Takao, who believed in his partner, decided to abandon his ridiculous idea.

——That is the guy who can make a group of beasts surrender!

Takao not only put away his doubts about Akashi, but also became more vigilant.

Although the high school players who watched from the auditorium had the same doubts as Takao, anyone with some brains felt that Akashi was not easy. Only some people with low self-esteem and complacency seriously believed that this was Akashi's strength.

"What, the captain of the Generation of Miracles is nothing more than that, goals are not all due to teammates."

Hearing this, suddenly, his surroundings became quiet.

The people around him didn't know that, behind him stood a purple-haired boy who was over two meters tall and a black-haired boy with gentle features but a chilling expression.
