Chapter 104 He is useless
“Azhe, that trick you said still doesn’t work for me. I only used a little more force, but my opponent lost even the basic fighting spirit.” Aomine Daiki lowered his head, making it impossible for Kuroko Zhe to see his expression. “I now completely understand Kaneki’s feelings. Apart from Kaneki, the only one who can defeat me is myself.”

“Aomine-kun” Kuroko Tetsuya’s heart skipped a beat and he was stunned for a moment. Looking at Aomine Daiki who was gradually going away, he didn’t know what to say for a moment.

“Aomine.” Shirogane Kozo looked at Aomine Daiki, who was in great sorrow and despair on the field, and thought to himself that something was wrong.

The game became completely one-sided with the complete surrender of Shangqi Junior High School, and Teiko Junior High School easily won the final victory of the game.

“Mr. Aomine, please stay here first.” Shirogane Kozo stopped Aomine Daiki who was about to leave.

“Oh, okay, Coach Shirogane.” Aomine Daiki looked at Shirogane Kozo with a confused look on his face.

“You did very well, Aomine.” Shirogane Kozo smiled and sat down next to Aomine Daiki. “I saw your opponent’s performance just now. I want to apologize to you first.”

“Uh, coach.” After hearing Shirogane Kozo apologize to him so solemnly, Aomine Daiki was a little at a loss for a moment.

“I had long anticipated that you would end up like this,” Shirogane Kozo said solemnly. “From the moment you joined the club, I knew this day would come, but I didn’t stop it. I see great potential in you, and I can’t wait to see your future prospects.”

“Coach.” Qingfeng Daihui’s mind moved slightly, not knowing what to say.

“The first one to blossom was Kaneki Ken. His talent is the most dazzling among you, and his mind is the most mature. So you can see that at the age of 13, he was recommended by Coach Anton to participate in the Flint Project.” Coach Platinum continued slowly, “In fact, I also talked to him before this, and he also realized what he wanted most. But you guys, I always felt that it was still too early, so I kept delaying it. It was my selfishness that was at work.”

“There’s no such thing, coach.” Before Aomine Daiki could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shirogane Kousou.

“Listen to me, Aomine-san.” Shirogane Kozo coughed a few times. “The dilemma you are facing now will not be solved in a short time, or even for a long time. But, I beg you, don’t give up basketball.”

As he spoke, Shirogane Kozo stood up, put his hands behind his back, and turned to look at Aomine Daiki: “After all, if you don’t give up, you may not necessarily gain anything, but if you give up, you will have nothing, right?”

“Hey, coach.” Aomine Daiki heard the familiar words and looked at Shirogane Kozo with some disbelief.

“Oh, that’s right, I copied it.” Shirogane Kozo looked at Aomine Daiki with a confident look, his eyes full of expectations.

“Ah, I understand, coach.” Aomine Daiki nodded with a smile, with a barely detectable hint of bitterness in his smile.

“Haisaki didn’t come to tonight’s game again,” Midorima Shintaro and Akashi Seijuro walked side by side in the player tunnel, and said with some concern, “Should we find a chance to talk to him?”

“No, that’s not necessary.” Akashi Seijuro refused flatly.

“Senior Nijimura came back from the United States some time ago. Under his and Kuroko’s leadership, the seniors who were originally in the starting lineup are enough to cause a dimensionality reduction attack on the substitute teams of all teams.” Akashi Seijuro’s eyes became unusually cold. “His laxity and bad habits have seriously affected the reputation of the team. I can no longer tolerate it.”

“Although Haizaki’s character is indeed bad, without him, the team’s starting forward position will be vacant,” Midorima Shintaro said hesitantly.

“Kise’s talent is far superior to his, and he can completely replace him.” Akashi Seijuro said decisively, “He is completely useless now, let him resign.”

“Akagi.” Midorima Shintaro looked at Akashi Seijuro in fear. In his impression, Akashi Seijuro had always been gentle and polite, but recently, Akashi Seijuro’s eyes became colder and colder. He was a little confused about which one was the real Akashi Seijuro. “Don’t be embarrassed, Shintaro.” As if sensing the fear in Midorima Shintaro’s heart, Akashi Seijuro continued, “I will go and talk to Haizaki in person.”

“Oh, okay.” Midorima Shintaro hesitated for a while, but still did not reject Akashi Seijuro’s proposal.

“What? You want me to quit the club?” After the training the next day, Haizaki Shogo looked at Akashi Seijuro in surprise. “Don’t be ridiculous. If you leave me, who are you going to let start? Is it that rookie Kise? Haha, don’t make me laugh. I just gave that sissy a good lesson a few days ago.”

After that, Haizaki Shogo pushed Akashi Seijuro aside, picked up his backpack leisurely, and said lazily: “Don’t waste my time if you have nothing to do. I still have to go on a date with his girlfriend. That girl is so sexy~”

“Stop, Haizaki.” Akashi Seijuro’s voice came from behind, “Let me tell you straight, after you left, it was indeed Kise who took your place.”

“Ah? You’re pushing it further, aren’t you?” Feeling humiliated, Haizaki Shogo grabbed Akashi Seijuro’s collar and said, “That guy is worthy of replacing me?”

“This is for your own good, Haizaki.” Akashi Seijuro looked at the ferocious Haizaki Shogo and remained unmoved. “Kise’s talent is far above yours. Sooner or later, he will surpass you. This is not an excuse for you to quit the club, but a fact that will happen in the near future. Letting you quit now is to save your face. Do you have to wait until the moment you are defeated by Kise head-on before you are willing to be driven out like a stray dog? Go away, Haizaki, give up. You are not Kise’s opponent, just like you were not Kaneki Ken’s opponent in the beginning. I know that you have been deliberately targeting Kise since he joined the club in order to prove that you can fill the vacancy left by Kaneki Ken, but I tell you the truth, the coach and I, and even everyone in the team, have never expected anything from you. You have never been a lower-level substitute for Kaneki, Kise is.”

“.Tsk, as if anyone wants to stay in the basketball club.” Haizaki Shogo stared at Akashi Seijuro’s cold eyes fiercely, and after a long while he sneered and shook Akashi Seijuro off, “I know, I will leave, I want to see if this Kise Ryota is really as strong as you said. You are not Kaneki Ken, Akashi, don’t think too highly of yourself.”

“I announce that according to Haizaki’s own wishes, from now on, Haizaki will officially withdraw from the Teiko Junior High School basketball team, and Kise Ryota will take over his starting position.” Before the start of the lunch training the next day, Naoto Sanada announced this explosive news.

“What? Haizaki quit the club?”

“It’s better to quit the club. This guy doesn’t think much of the basketball club anyway.”

“Haisaki-san.” Kuroko Tetsuya ignored the players who were talking on the side, looked at Akashi Seijuro’s cold eyes with worry, asked for leave from Sanada Naoto, and rushed out of the gym.

“.” At this time, Haizaki Shogo was standing next to a trash can, hesitating with his usual sneakers in his hand.

“Haisaki-san!” Kuroko Tetsuya’s voice came from the side, “You quit the club?”

“Ah, it’s meaningless. I don’t want to fight anymore, so I’ll quit.” Haizaki Shogo said lazily.

“Is it because of Akashi-san?” Kuroko Tetsuya asked, inexplicably remembering Akashi Seijuro’s cold expression.

“Tsk!” Haizaki Shogo pretended to be calm, but the anger in his eyes could not be concealed, “Who cares what he thinks? How many times do I have to tell you that if you don’t want to fight, then don’t fight!”

After he finished speaking, Haizaki Shogo finally made up his mind and threw the sneakers in his hand into the trash can under the heartbroken look of Kuroko Tetsuya.

“Ghana~ You should worry about yourself first!” Haizaki Shogo pretended to be carefree and turned away, holding his head leisurely with both hands, “Compared to me, maybe you who stayed behind are more pathetic~”
