Yuuto could score. Although not directly, the signal released was quite unfavorable for Kaijo.
This meant the King of Seiho had become stronger.
In his normal state, he had the ability to contend with Kise, who had stacked all his buffs to the max.
The point difference, which had just widened to double digits, returned to a single digit of 9 points with Iwamura's dunk.
Kise pressed his lips together, took the ball without a word, and erupted with dazzling golden light to charge.
He was unbelievably strong, possessing the techniques of all Generation of Miracles members plus Yuuto. Even speed and strength could be imitated one-on-one through specialized means.
He accelerated again, the golden electric arcs in his eyes leaving a long trail in the air.
Yuuto similarly activated the Bible of the Star to specialize certain attributes to contend with him.
But different from before, his defensive footwork was more concise; every step seemed to have been tempered a thousand times.
Golden light flashed past; he actively went up to meet the battle.
Kise, having activated his state to 100%, was strong to the extreme, making people feel incredible. His ability to switch at will made it even harder to guess his next move.
And Yuuto seemed more like a grandmaster, controlling movement with stillness.
Sometimes small steps, sometimes huge strides, his feet constantly tapping on the floor to intercept.
He looked like he was dancing, his footwork dreamlike.
Kise sensed something was wrong; the opponent in front of him had become stronger.
His brain was like a heated CPU, nearing overload, spinning frantically.
Currently, he saw the flow of everything in the world as slow, but Yuuto was not among them.
Kise's heart shook violently. This meant the object of his admiration, in normal state, already had the ability to contend with him in his peak state.
Eight seconds of the offensive clock passed.
In these short eight seconds, the figures of the two crossed more than ten times.
Kise finally seized the opportunity to pierce Yuuto's defense, finishing with a 180-degree spin dunk in mid-air.
"Still can't stop him. Using this state to contend with the current Kise is too forced."
Everyone could see that Yuuto was indeed stronger, but still not enough to catch up with Kise's rhythm.
"But this is even scarier."
Some people had already foreseen the outcome.
Kise's explosion like this wouldn't be without cost.
No one knew when he would slip from his peak.
What about Yuuto?
This was just his normal state. Unless Kise could persist until the end of the game, Kaijo was in danger.
"But since it's Perfect Copy, why can't Kise imitate Yuuto's Correction?" Someone asked this question.
"Most likely, that's something impossible to imitate." Teppei Kiyoshi gave this answer after thinking.
Like Akashi's Emperor Eye and Kuroko's Misdirection, these innate talents are unique and cannot be imitated.
"True. Just like Yuuto's super specialization, it's based on Yuuto's special body structure. Others probably can't bear the consequences of specialization."
Kise's imitation was amazing, but some monsters were born unique.
Back on the other end.
Yuuto held the ball facing Kise again.
He exerted all his skills, wanting to engrave this state of Kise, which was even stronger than Aomine, into his mind.
Memories of multiple corrections were deeply etched into his brain and muscles.
This time.
He brought a greater threat to Kaijo, nearly breaking through Kise's blockade head-on, but still fell a bit short.
With a smack, the ball was poked away by Kise. The nearby Ryuhei Kasuga was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbing the ball and hitting a mid-range jump shot against the hurried defense.
Kise stared at Yuuto viciously.
He wanted to chase just now, but was tripped up by Yuuto using an illegal screen to block him, yet the referee didn't see it.
Similar things happen in every game on the court; Yuuto had no psychological burden.
On the contrary.
He analyzed in his brain again, looking for his weaknesses and correcting them.
Then.
He took another small step forward, becoming stronger.
...
Offense and defense transition. Kise sprinted immediately.
His time was limited, so he pulled the game rhythm very fast.
Yuuto was fearless, his facial expression consistent.
The Death Coil talent locked onto Kise firmly, unfolding a suffocating defense.
It could be clearly seen that Kise needed more time to pass him, and the movements were more complex.
On both ends of the court, Yuuto was becoming stronger bit by bit.
This time.
Kise consumed a full 10 seconds of the offensive clock to put the ball in.
A three-pointer worth a thousand gold.
The gap came to 12 points.
Yuuto remained unmoved, receiving the ball and actively seeking out the Kaijo Ace again.
His offensive was even sharper. The specialized speed and strength had reached the limit he could currently bear, bringing Kise an even fiercer impact.
Like a violent storm, Yuuto's every step seemed to find a needle in a haystack, angles tricky to the extreme.
Such talent, such growth speed, simply shocking to heaven and man.
Finally.
With a whoosh, the basketball disappeared without warning, as if crossing a black hole, skipping time and space, appearing in Iwamura's hands.
Too fast.
Such a pass caught people off guard. What's more terrifying was that this pass wasn't complete yet; it could be even stronger.
However.
"Ah~"
Kise shouted loudly, rushing out of the paint like a golden light.
He was really too strong; even so, he rushed back to defend before Iwamura could score.
Smack!
Iwamura's dunk was rejected by Kise, slapped out of bounds.
However.
The Left Eye of God opened. Yuuto moved in advance, picking up the ball before anyone else.
"Crap!" Seeing this, Yoshitaka Moriyama pounced on Yuuto like crazy, along with Kaijo captain Yukio Kasamatsu.
Facing Yuuto, they could only team up, having no possibility of winning alone.
Then.
They saw Yuuto catch and shoot, extremely fast jumping speed giving them no time to think.
Both jumped simultaneously, raising their arms high like a city wall.
But at this moment, they heard the coach's terrified shout, "Kasamatsu, Moriyama!"
What?
The two returned to their senses, seeing the Yuuto in front of them dissipate like a bubble.
Looking down, that Seiho King's toes were still on the floor.
Yuuto jumped only at this moment. Yukio Kasamatsu acted ruthlessly; a foul was inevitable, but at least he couldn't give the opponent a 2+1 chance.
He fouled Yuuto fiercely, arm hitting hard on Yuuto's arm.
Useless.
The Acrobatic Shot talent allowed Yuuto to shoot stably under any circumstances.
Yuuto twisted his body and put the ball into the hoop.
Beep~
The referee blew the whistle.
"Two points valid, plus one free throw!"
