Black Basketball: A false start

Chapter 318 Tao Jing May’s unexpected gain

Chapter 318 Tao Jing Wu Yue’s unexpected harvest

“Coach, how is Akashi-san?” On the bench of the Zanlongjian team, Kuroko Tetsuya asked Akashi Seijuro, whose face was covered in blood, with a worried look on his face.

“Although we have already taken simple steps to stop the bleeding, Akashi’s wound still needs stitches…” Aida Reiko said helplessly, “He will definitely not be able to play in the next game…”

“It’s okay, leave it to Gilgamesh and me!” Sakuragi Hanamichi gritted his teeth and looked towards the rest area of ​​the Exploding Dragons and said, “Gilgamesh and I will definitely teach those guys a lesson!”

“I’m sorry, Kaneki…” Akashi Seijuro looked at Kaneki Ken with a hint of apology on his face and said, “I was originally thinking if I could win this game for you directly… But now it seems that I still have to trouble you to do it…”

“Then your money is wasted, isn’t it?” Kaneki Ken forced a smile, looked down at Akashi Seijuro and said, “Don’t worry, boss, you paid for it!”

“Where are the injured?” Just then, the team doctor who arrived late squeezed into the crowd of the Dragon Sword Team.

“Please, doctor, I’ll leave Akashi-san to you.” Reiko Aida said with a worried look on her face, pointing at Akashi Seijuro lying on the stretcher.

“Come on, everyone…” Before being carried away by two doctors, Akashi Seijuro smiled and said to his teammates, “We must win!”

“Don’t worry, I’m here to guarantee your victory.” Kaneki Ken held Akashi Seijuro’s hand seriously and promised.

“I’m sorry, classmate. If you have anything to say, please wait until the game is over.” The team doctor patted Kaneki Ken’s hand gently, and then carried Akashi Seijuro out one after another.

“Now that Akashi-san is not here… Kise-san and Murasakibara-san have also played for half the game…” After watching Akashi Seijuro’s figure completely disappear in the player tunnel, Aida Reiko turned her head to look at the players of the Dragon Slayer Sword team and said nervously while biting the pen, “Then next, I will make a substitution…”

“Kahachi, Rukawa, Sakuragi, Haizaki, the rest of you come with me.” Before Reiko Aida finished her words, Kaneki Ken decisively arranged the next players to play.

“Ken-kun…” Taoi Satsuki approached Kaneki Ken hesitantly and asked, “Isn’t it a bit too arrogant to leave only you and Sakuragi-san, two miracle-level players, on the court? As for Nash Goldo Jr. and Jason Thibaud, there is no one else who can defend them alone except you…”

“How come there is no one who can defend alone?” Kaneki Ken smiled and patted Sakuragi Hanamichi on the back and said, “Don’t underestimate Sakuragi. With him and Birchwood, it’s more than enough to defend Jason Siber…”

Kaneki Ken stopped talking, narrowed his eyes and looked at Nash Goldo Jr., then said: “As for that bastard… let me take care of him!”

“Nash, you were too impulsive on the court just now…” At this time, in the rest area of ​​the Jabberwocky team, Jason Thibo was drinking a drink in big gulps while looking at Nash Goldo Jr. with some hesitation. After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Well, that guy is really pissed off by us…”

“What? Are you scared? Isn’t now the time for you to say that you will destroy that annoying monkey?” Nash Gordo Jr. glanced at Jason Thibo coldly and said, “If you are scared, then get out. Besides me, there is no one else in this team who cannot be replaced!”

“Don’t say that, Nash…” Looking at Jason Thibaud, whose face turned red instantly after being scolded by Nash Gordo Jr., Old K on the side quickly stepped out to smooth things over, “Thibaud is just worried about the progress of the game…”

“Hmph…” Nash Goldo Jr. glanced at Jason Siber coldly, snorted and said nothing.

“Buzz~”

The buzzing sound of the timer on the sidelines broke the eerie silence in the audience. As the timeout ended, players from both teams stood up and walked towards the center of the court.

“Haizaki, come here.” After arriving on the court, Kaneki Ken waved at Haizaki Shogo.

“What are you doing?” Haizaki Shogo shrank his neck uncomfortably, looked at Kaneki Ken with a vigilant look and asked, “If you ask me to help you beat up those black guys, I won’t do it. Their arms are thicker than my thighs…”

“What are you talking about? Why would I use violent actions on the field?” Kaneki Ken slapped Haizaki Shogo on the head with a slap in dissatisfaction and scolded with a smile, “You are lucky, kid. In the next game, you will be the output of our Dragon Slayer team.”

“Ah? Me?” Haizaki Shogo said, pointing at himself in surprise.

“Yes.” Kaneki nodded with a smile, raised his hand and pointed to the half of the Jabberwocky team and said, “Except for Nash and Jason, as long as the other Jabberwocky players take action, you will plunder their skills for me.”

“But Nash doesn’t look like the type who would pass the ball to his teammates…” Haizaki Shogo said hesitantly, “And Nash and Jason’s skills… I can’t plunder them…”

“Don’t worry, that guy will definitely pass the ball.” Kaneki Ken narrowed his eyes and looked at Nash Goldo Jr. and said, “Jason Thibaud is having a hard time facing Sakuragi, not to mention that Karaji is helping him… As for Nash Goldo Jr… It’s still too early for this guy to break through my defense and score!”

“Beep beep! Dragon Slayer Team has the ball!” Just as Kaneki Ken was giving instructions to Haizaki Shogo, the referee blew his whistle. Seeing this, Sakuragi Hanamichi rushed to the sidelines, took the basketball from the referee, and then decisively kicked the sideline ball to Kaneki Ken.

“Everyone, run!” Kaneki Ken slowly pushed the ball forward after receiving it, scanning his teammates and shouting loudly. At this time, except for Haizaki Shogo, all the players of the Dragon Slayer Team were from the starting lineup of Xiangbei High School, so after Kaneki Ken gave the order, the entire Dragon Slayer Team started to run quickly and perform off-ball pick-and-roll like a precision machine.

“Damn… this monkey… the oppression on the court is much stronger now than when the game just started!” Nash Goldo Jr. looked at the expressionless Kaneki Ken, swallowed with some fear, then slowly walked forward and opened his arms.

“I just heard you say off the court…your field of vision covers the entire court and all the players on the court, right?” Kaneki Ken chuckled and slowly dribbled the ball towards Nash Goldo Jr.’s defense line, teasing in a playful tone.

“This guy…what does he want to do by suddenly asking this question?” Nash Goldo Jr. frowned and looked at Kaneki Ken in front of him, muttering to himself.

“Nothing else… I just want you to remember one thing…” Kaneki Ken’s eyes gradually became dangerous, “Since you dare to touch my people, you must be prepared to pay the price!” “Bang!”

As the sound of a basketball hitting the ground was heard, Nash Goldo Jr.’s eyes suddenly blurred, and Kaneki Ken’s figure flashed and passed by his side like a golden stream of light.

“Don’t make me laugh, you monkey!” Nash Gordo Jr. roared loudly, his timid appearance clearly revealing the fact that he was guilty. “Instead of worrying about your teammates, you might as well worry about whether you can walk off the court safely!”

After saying that, Nash Goldo Jr. immediately turned around and chased after Kaneki Ken’s breaking back. He thrust out his right hand suddenly, and while making an attempt to steal the ball, his fingers intentionally or unintentionally stabbed in the direction of Kaneki Ken’s eyes.

“You really only care about the food and not the beating… Have you ever taken advantage of me by playing these little tricks in front of me?” Kaneki Ken snorted coldly and immediately turned around, dodging Nash Goldo Jr.’s dangerous moves while easily getting rid of Nash Goldo Jr.’s entanglement.

“Jason! Guard him!” Looking at Kaneki Ken rushing towards the inside, Nash Goldo Jr. hurriedly shouted a reminder to Jason Sibo in the inside.

“You still have the mood to remind your teammates to back up the defense?” Kaneki Ken’s eyes revealed a hint of sarcasm, “If you have the time… you might as well take care of yourself!”

After saying that, Kaneki Ken’s ball-protecting hand swung casually, and in the face of Nash Goldo Jr.’s horrified expression, Kaneki Ken’s left elbow rushed towards Nash Goldo Jr.’s cheek like a sharp knife.

“Hiss…” Nash Goldo Jr., who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, shrank back the moment he saw Kaneki Ken’s elbow. He could only stand there in a daze, watching Kaneki Ken’s back as he rushed to the basket.

“He actually dodged it?” Mr. Kaneki Ken glanced at Nash Goldo Jr. in surprise, then revealed a cruel smile and said, “You’re lucky… Then you guys should try to dodge this ball as well!”

As Kaneki Ken’s voice fell, in the midst of Nash Goldo Jr.’s panic-stricken expression, a golden stream of light suddenly stopped near the free throw line, and then it stepped heavily on the free throw line with both feet and jumped up.

“Come on! Kaneki Ken!” Sakuragi Hanamichi shouted excitedly as he watched Kaneki Ken soar into the air.

“As long as we can destroy this golden monkey, then only this red-haired monkey will be left struggling…” Jason Siber looked at Kaneki Ken with a ferocious expression and muttered to himself, “Then… come down!”

After saying that, Jason Sibo took a big step forward and came to Kaneki Ken’s side. The veins on his legs bulged, and he exerted force with his legs. His whole body soared into the sky as if he was equipped with a flamethrower. Led by Jason Sibo, his dark palm also blocked the basketball in Kaneki Ken’s hand.

“boom!”

Just when Jason Thibo’s block was about to be completed, Kaneki Ken suddenly took the basketball in his right hand back in the air, then turned lightly in the air, and while getting rid of Jason Thibo’s defense, he used the force of turning to hit Jason Thibo’s back with his elbow.

“Puff!” Jason Sibo, who was hit by Kaneki Ken’s iron elbow, felt a tightness in his chest and the breath he had been holding in his chest was suddenly exhaled.

“It seems that you are not good enough either…” Kaneki Ken sneered as he looked at Jason Thibaud and said, “When I was playing basketball with that bald kid at Lower Merion High School, we were elbowing each other almost every minute of the game… But look at you, you also came from the American basketball team, but compared to that bald kid, your strength is so weak!”

“Damn it…” Jason Thiber, who was ridiculed, suddenly felt a surge of blood in his head. He rushed towards Kaneki Ken’s back with a red face and pushed hard with both hands. Kaneki Ken, who was originally flying in the air, suddenly lost his balance in the air and fell heavily to the ground involuntarily.

“Be careful, Gilgamesh!” Sakuragi Hanamichi, looking at Jason Sibo who was desperate, rushed to Kaneki Ken’s side, ready to lend a hand at any time.

“Don’t worry about me, Sakuragi. These guys can’t hurt me.” Kaneki Ken chuckled and looked at Jason Siber beside me. He shook his right hand lightly, and the basketball drew a high arc in the air and fell accurately into the basket.

“Beep~” As the sound of the basketball hitting the net reached the ears of everyone in the field, the referee blew his whistle, “Team Exploding Neck Dragon committed a defensive foul, Team Slashing Dragon Sword scored! One free throw!”

“Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!”

“Kaneki!!!!”

The spectators on the sidelines looked at Kaneki Ken’s elegant and graceful expression, and no longer suppressed their excitement. They waved flags and banners vigorously and cheered loudly.

“I say, didn’t you guys eat?” Kaneki Ken smiled and gave Jason Siber the middle finger and said, “The masseur I took a bubble bath with two days ago was stronger than you guys!”

“Ah? Masseur? Bubble bath?” Momoi Satsuki immediately caught the key points in Kaneki Ken’s words, looked at Kaneki Ken with a gloomy face and muttered to herself, “Ken-kun… actually dared to take a bubble bath behind my back?”

“Calm down…Calm down, Taojing-san…” Aida Reiko looked at Taojing Satsuki, whose emotions were about to get out of control, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her, “Kaneki-san was just talking trash on the court. I can guarantee that he definitely hasn’t been to a place like a bubble bath shop in the past few days…right?”

“I never thought that playing a game would bring me unexpected gains… I’ll come and settle the score with this guy after the game is over…” Tao Jing Satsuki took a deep breath, and after calming down, she looked at Nash Goldo Jr. with an unhappy face and said, “It’s all because of this bunch of rubbish that they are looking for trouble… Otherwise, how could Yanjun have the chance to go to that kind of place behind my back!”

“Shh!”

As the sound of a basketball hitting the net rang out, Kaneki Ken turned his head and looked at Nash Goldo Jr. and said provocatively, “Hey, at least let me have some fun, Monkey. If you have any tricks, hurry up and use them. Otherwise, you won’t have a chance to catch the ball again.”
