The match was incredibly intense—
At least, it looked that way from the sheer physicality on display.
Neither side yielded an inch.
Every possession was a fight to the death, players tumbling everywhere.
The referees initially tried to keep things under control, worried the players might lose their cool and do sothing reckless.
But after several whistles had no effect, they silently gave up and allowed the physicality to continue.
It was clear both teams, while intense, were still restraining themselves enough.
And so, this high-level contact lasted all the way until the final minute of the ga.
Rakuzan's fans stared at the scoreboard, their last hopes fading to nothing.
Despite the chaos on the court, Rakuzan had not managed to close the gap to single digits since the start of the fourth quarter.
Tracy McGrady once delivered that miraculous 13-point burst in 35 seconds, turning an impossible situation into a victory.
But Rakuzan was now down by more than 13, and ti was nearly gone.
Akashi was out of options.
Rakuzan had given everything—they were completely spent.
The lightning that marked Zone flickered and vanished from the corners of his eyes.
Tendou, too, had exited the state.
But—
Boom!
The basketball slamd against the hardwood and bounced up.
Tendou caught the inbound pass and sprinted down the court.
Akashi stepped in to stop him—
But was quickly passed.
Two players who could both see the future—
But the deciding factor ca down to individual ability.
Once again, Tendou proved to everyone:
He wasn't just the strongest of the Generation of Miracles—
He was the strongest player in the entire nation.
Rakuzan's defenders reacted imdiately, rushing to collapse on him.
Aside from Nebuya guarding the paint, the other three sward in.
But—
Vmmm
Their ears seed to go deaf.
Then ca the wave—an overwhelming flood of data slamming into their brains.
Hayama and the others were trapped again, stuck in that ntal loop, unable to act.
Their minds and bodies could not sync.
The mont they neared Tendou, they froze, as if paralyzed.
The image was striking.
Anyone who tried to approach Tendou ended up locked in place.
And Tendou?
He walked calmly through the crowd, like a man crossing an empty boulevard in the early morning.
Boom!
Nebuya gave it his all under the basket—
But couldn't stop Tendou either.
The lead grew to 19 points.
Rakuzan had no strength left to turn the tide.
Defeat was certain.
"My brain is starting to adapt to Unlimited Void," Akashi said, wiping sweat from his face.
Now he understood why Tendou had waited until the end to unleash it.
Unlimited Void wasn't perfect. It had weaknesses.
If you used a data flood to overwhelm opponents for too long, the effect would gradually weaken—
Because humans are incredibly adaptive creatures.
Over ti, the brain would start to filter out unnecessary data—
A self-protection chanism to avoid ntal collapse.
Based on how long it took him to adjust, Akashi estimated the effective duration to be around ten minutes.
But that was his limit.
For others, the ti could vary widely.
And even with that knowledge, Akashi felt no joy.
Because Tendou going all out for 15 minutes—
That was more than enough to end any ga.
Even just five minutes could determine a match's outco.
In Jujutsu Kaisen, Domain Expansion was the ultimate technique—and its power was undeniable.
Only a handful of geniuses could awaken it.
Activating it wasn't too demanding, but sustaining it required imnse energy.
Only Satoru Gojo and Sukuna could activate theirs multiple tis in a day.
For other sorcerers and cursed spirits, even once or twice a day was pushing it—
Which made domain techniques akin to finishing moves.
In the past week, Tendou had thoroughly mastered Unlimited Void.
As Akashi suspected, the longer it went on, the more the brain adjusted and the weaker the effect beca.
This duration depended entirely on the individual.
And yes, maintaining the domain did gradually fatigue him.
But aside from that…
There were no real downsides.
Liangfeng was speechless.
His emotional rollercoaster was even worse than Rakuzan's players, because he was witnessing the real consequences of this ability in action.
"This power… it's straight out of Prince of Tennis, right?"
It was broken—completely overpowered.
Again and again, he watched Tendou charge through Rakuzan like a lone warrior facing a dragon's lair.
The mont a defender approached, they froze.
The torrent of data had been given a visual effect by the animators—
Brilliant multicolored streams, billions in number, surging toward opponents.
And Tendou?
He did nothing fancy—just walked through them.
Graceful, composed, unstoppable.
Dominating without even trying.
"This guy… you'd need 'Muga no Kyōchi' to stand a chance against him.
And not just the first level—you'd need the second form of Muga."
Liangfeng scread into his mic,
"Unlimited Void is a murder-tennis-level power!"
...
Not that it changed anything.
"It's over. Tendou wins."
The lead had stretched to 19 points.
Less than a minute remained.
Rakuzan had less than a 0.1% chance of turning it around.
"I'm heading out, Momoi," Aomine said suddenly, getting up to leave.
He was desperate for Winter Cup to arrive.
The sooner it ca, the sooner he could challenge Tendou again.
"I'm going too," Midorima added.
Watching soone else stand on the podium—
That wasn't sothing he could stomach.
He was getting impatient.
Kirisaki Daiichi was in the sa district as Shūtoku.
...
He had to get stronger!
"Eh? You're leaving already?"
"I'm heading out too. Kise, Momoi, you guys can keep watching."
Takao was gone too.
Only Kise and Momoi remained.
"What about you, Momoi?" Kise asked, turning to the last girl standing.
"I'm staying to see Ten lift the trophy," Momoi said naturally, pulling out the cara she had prepared in advance.
"What? You already knew he'd win?"
"Of course—because Tendou's the strongest!"
Anyone who didn't know better would've thought Tendou was her childhood friend.
Kise rolled his eyes at her.
He had been planning to leave too—
But he stayed.
Leaving such a cute girl alone didn't sit right with him.
"In the first full collision of the Generation of Miracles, the one who stood victorious… was Tendou!"
Even the scouts started to leave their seats.
This match had shown them just how far they were from the championship.
Because of these Generation of Miracles prodigies, the upcoming Winter Cup and selection tournants would be more competitive than ever.
Other fans—and even players—shifted their attention to Kirisaki Daiichi.
Rakuzan's reign over high school basketball… was over.
Now began the era of Kirisaki Daiichi—
Or more precisely, the era of Tendou Kageyoshi!
Tweet—
The final whistle blew.
And in that instant, the Kirisaki Daiichi bench erupted.
The substitutes stord the court, shouting at the top of their lungs:
"We're the champions!"
