Aomine launched forward—Haizaki reacted instantly

and in the chaos, the ball ricocheted out of bounds.

The ball had gone out of bounds off Haizaki's foot after the steal attempt.

Tōō Academy ball, sideline inbound.

"Next play…"

"Tōō is switching to offense!"

"Whoa—so fast…!!"

"Aomine is charging ahead! This ti… Haizaki and Kuroko are double-teaming him!"

"This is bad—if he scores, the lead grows to six! And the ones defending are Haizaki and Kuroko, Seirin's two strongest defensive anchors. If even they can't stop him…"

"…it ans Aomine is literally unstoppable!"

Seirin bench.

"Hold him!!"

"Haizaki!"

"Kuroko!"

"DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE!!"

Aomine blitzed into Seirin's paint

but the defensive formation in front of him made him pause for an instant.

Haizaki was in front of him—completely blocking Kuroko from Aomine's field of view…?

A double-team…?

No, this positioning was wrong.

Kuroko, who couldn't match Aomine or Haizaki in speed, would be useless if he waited for Haizaki to get beaten first before helping.

That would be weaker than a normal double-team!

Even if they ca up with so trick, so plan he didn't know

it didn't matter.

Whatever it is, he would break it.

Bang!

Haizaki activated Emperor Eye at full capacity, desperately predicting Aomine's movent.

Right side…!

Bang!

Too fast!

Even though Haizaki accurately predicted Aomine's intention, Aomine's speed—Zone plus his "Snow Shadow" state—made his actual motion faster than even his predicted motion!

But then

Aomine's pupils shrank sharply.

Tetsu…?

No way.

Impossible.

Why are you faster than ?!

That's right.

The one who moved almost before Aomine himself

was Kuroko Tetsuya.

"W-What"

"How… how did he do that…?"

Tōō's players were just as stunned.

anwhile, on the spectator seats, Murasakibara suddenly narrowed his eyes and muttered seriously:

"…Kuro-chin wasn't even looking at Aomine just now, was he~?

Who was he watching~?"

On the opposite side, Midorima's eyes widened.

"Haizaki… Kuroko was watching Haizaki's movents—predicting Haizaki's future action!"

That's right.

He wasn't predicting Aomine.

He was predicting Haizaki predicting Aomine.

Kuroko used the fact that Haizaki had already seen into Aomine's next move with Emperor Eye

and then predicted even further beyond that.

By using his long-built trust and deep familiarity with Haizaki's habits, timing, and movent patterns

he read Haizaki's projected future, and surpassed it.

This technique couldn't be used on opponents.

It worked only on soone he had spent extensive ti with

soone whose physical rhythm and ntal flow he understood intimately.

Soone he trusted.

And because that trust was so deep, he could even read beyond Haizaki's Emperor Eye prediction

reaching a level slightly above Emperor Eye itself.

No

It was unavoidably above Emperor Eye.

Because

he was predicting a Haizaki who had already predicted a future.

"And with Haizaki's body completely covering Kuroko, Aomine couldn't even see Kuroko move!"

Midorima added, admiration slipping into his tone.

On the court

"Ahhhhh!!"

SLAP!

In an unbelievable mont

Kuroko Tetsuya stole the ball straight out of Aomine Daiki's hands, while Aomine was in Zone.

"Wha—"

"That's impossible…!"

Tōō's players froze.

Even Kise stared in disbelief—unable to accept that Aomine, in this state, could be stopped by soone.

The arena exploded.

"UNBELIEVABLE—A STEAL!"

"They stopped Aomine!"

"Seirin switches to offense!!"

Kise imdiately sprinted back on defense.

Watch !

However

Tap! Tap!

Haizaki, imrsed in his monstrous rhythm, executed two ultra-fast crossovers.

"Haizaki broke through!"

"And Seirin has numbers!!"

"5-on-4! Go—GO!"

Behind them, Aomine—still shaken from Kuroko's steal—turned sharply as the counterattack exploded forward.

Footsteps thundered

Aomine's expression sharpened, eyes fierce.

Within a blink, he accelerated, closing the distance on Haizaki from behind.

In the stands, every Tokyo-area defensive specialist—players known for their speed—felt cold sweat forming on their foreheads.

"He's too fast!"

On the court

Imayoshi Shoichi watched Aomine closely.

Aomine…

He can still stop this!

But at the mont Aomine reached in for the steal

A different hand shot forward from behind Haizaki.

PAK!

Kuroko's hand.

He flicked the ball upward before Aomine could touch it.

The silhouette behind Haizaki stepped fully into Aomine's vision.

Of course

Number 11.

Kuroko Tetsuya.

He deliberately slapped the ball out of Haizaki's hands.
