Chapter 23: Akashi comes on stage, Murasakibara is defeated again



Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium.

Inside the basketball hall, the atmosphere was so tense that it seemed frozen.

At this time, the lights in the venue were still bright, but they could not illuminate the worried hearts of the Dream Team members.

The members of the Dream Team didn't pay attention to the basketball shot by Nash. The sound of the basketball entering the net seemed to be isolated in another world, and the change in the score was temporarily forgotten by them.

They all fixed their eyes on Kise, who was collapsed on the field, their eyes full of concern and anxiety.

Yin Yue and others hurriedly trotted to Huang Lai's front.

"Kise, are you okay?"

Midorima frowned, quickly helped Kise up from the ground, and asked with worry in his eyes.

He could feel the weakness of Kise's body, that weak body seemed to have lost its supporting skeleton.

Huh…ha…huh…ha…

Huang Lai was breathing heavily, and the sound of his breathing was like an old bellows, and every breath seemed extremely difficult.

Sweat was pouring down like crazy, wetting his hair, flowing down his cheeks, gathering at his chin, and then dripping onto the floor, forming a small stain.

Looking at him, he looked like a man who was exhausted and had lost all strength.

His eyes were a little blurry, his lips were slightly pale, and he looked very weak.

Huang Lai looked tired and said weakly.

"I'm not really sure. I just felt my strength suddenly disappear. I don't know why, but I feel like my strength hasn't recovered at all."

His voice was very soft, as if it came from far away, and every word revealed deep confusion and powerlessness.

He tried to recall what had just happened, but his mind was in a mess. He only remembered the sound of the basketball hitting the ground and the fatigue that surged like a tide.

Yin Yue spoke at this time.

"You can't compete in this condition, so go down and have a rest first!"

Looking at Kise's state, he knew that Kise could no longer fight.

Hearing Yin Yue's words, Huang Lai did not refuse.

He is in this state now, and even if he is unwilling, he has to admit the reality.

He knew that if he continued to stay on the field he would only become a burden to the team, and a deep feeling of frustration surged in his heart, but he no longer had the energy to feel upset. He could only let Midorima support him as he slowly walked towards the rest area. His back looked a little lonely.

Aida Kagetora raised his hand to signal the referee.

Seeing this, the referee blew the whistle.

beep……

"The Dream Team requests a substitution."

Huang Lai was helped down. His steps were unsteady and each step was extremely difficult, as if his entire body did not belong to him anymore.

On the sidelines, Akashi had already stood up when Kise collapsed.

His sharp eyes were always watching the situation on the field. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that Huang Lai had reached his limit. His weak posture and disordered breath showed that he could no longer continue the game.

A trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes, and he knew in his heart that the next game would be even more difficult.

Huang Lai was supported by Midorima and walked to the sidelines. He raised his head, gave a bitter smile to Akashi who was walking forward, and said.

"The rest is up to you guys."

That smile was full of reluctance and apology. He was upset that he could not continue fighting, but at the same time he was full of trust in his teammates, hoping that they could save the situation.

Akashi said with a serious expression.

“Leave it to me!”

His words were concise and powerful, with an unquestionable determination.

After saying this, Akashi walked onto the court with steady steps.

He has an upright posture and exudes a unique aura.

When the Jabberwocks saw Akashi walking onto the field, they all smiled with disdain.

Their contemptuous eyes seemed as if they were looking at a clown who overestimated his own abilities.

"It's that guy. I guess he'll be replaced in a hurry!"

Zack said sarcastically, his mouth corners raised in a sneer, his eyes full of contempt for Akashi.

Ha ha ha ha……

Allen laughed wildly, and the laughter was particularly harsh in the stadium.

"It's the same no matter who comes. The boss's ability has never failed."

His words were full of blind worship of Nash and disdain for the Dream Team.

Akashi came to Yin Yue's side and spoke.

"Can you give him to me?"

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked at Yin Yue, waiting for his answer.

Yin Yue did not refuse when she heard this and nodded.

"Okay! Be careful, that guy is not as simple as he looks."

He knew Akashi's strength, but Nash's strength and weirdness also forced him to be cautious.

Akashi nodded, his gaze returned to Nash, the coldness in his eyes becoming even colder.

Attack and defense transition.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the stadium is like a taut bowstring, ready to explode at any moment.

The Dream Team served the ball. Yin Yue had a sharp eye and chose the right moment to throw the ball directly to Akashi.

After receiving the ball, Akashi looked calm and did not rush to attack.

He is like a calm chess player, observing the board before making a move.

He walked slowly forward, bouncing the basketball. The rhythmic sound of the ball echoed in the silent gym, like a metronome for his thinking.

The red eyes were like a burning flame, sweeping over Jabberwock and his men, as if assessing the opponent's strength and condition.
