That's right.
It was simply a heightened state of mental concentration.
Whether Mayuzumi Chihiro or Kuroko, they merely had low presence, not truly disappearing on the court.
As long as one paid attention and concentrated enough, they could definitely find some clues.
And the Mystic Eyes were such an existence.
Capable of combining real-time player data to find that irreversible Dead Spot.
Eiji Shirogane's face was gloomy; this situation was too rare.
In his coaching career, he had almost never encountered it.
A player who could constantly evolve on the court; the stronger the opponent, the stronger he became.
But for Rakuzan, Yuuto's evolution wasn't scary; what was scary was if he stopped evolving.
That would be when Rakuzan was in trouble.
Turning back, Akashi continued his individual offense, constantly observing and torturing Yuuto's ankles.
One of his signatures was the Ankle Breaker.
No fixed movement, but constantly destroying the opponent's center of gravity based on its changes; no matter how one changed, it was useless, unable to escape the insight of the Emperor Eye.
Then.
A trace of abnormality came from Yuuto's ankle again, but it wasn't irreversible.
"The future is absolute!" Akashi swept past him at extreme speed.
Yuuto knew this wasn't absolute; the opponent could just accurately grasp his center of gravity shift to destroy it.
All his movements were decomposed by the opponent; movements as fast as lightning were like snails in Akashi's eyes.
However.
Similar things, Yuuto could also do.
"The so-called absolute just means the limit."
"But I have no limit."
Bible of the Star activated.
Speed Specialization.
Yuuto's body was agile as a monkey, turning quickly to close in on Akashi.
He analyzed combining multiple aspects like Akashi's body data changes and playing style intel.
So-called vision talent is just like this.
Seeing things ordinary people can't see, then analyzing by the brain, and finally issuing instructions to the body.
Therefore, seeing is only the first step; to put it into action and exert the advantage of vision, one also needs a keen brain.
And Yuuto.
His Mentality attribute was as high as 150 points, the undisputed number one.
"It's that kind of specialization." The primary personality Akashi spoke to remind.
Secondary Akashi knew clearly that if he insisted on individual isolation, he would very likely be locked down by Yuuto.
The air is Yuuto's domain.
He could specialize jumping like Kagami, or even instantly switch to strength like Murasakibara.
Thinking of this.
Akashi made a choice, passing the ball unknowingly during the turn.
"Akashi passed!"
"In other words, Yuuto's evolution has reached a level threatening to Akashi!"
"But how long has it been?"
Many people were greatly alarmed.
"Evolved man-to-man defense from Dai-chan, off-ball from Little Green, and got comprehensive improvement from Little Kise..." Momoi murmured to herself.
Yuuto's evolution speed at this moment was scary fast.
But looking closely, one would find this speed wasn't strange because Yuuto had already evolved from the other three Generation of Miracles members.
Putting aside talents that cannot be copied like the Emperor Eye and Mystic Eyes, Yuuto's strength at this moment had surpassed anyone in the Generation of Miracles.
"In other words, the previous Akashi has always been using the Emperor Eye's ability to contend with Yuuto."
Everyone got one thing wrong.
It wasn't Yuuto contending with Akashi, but Akashi trying every means to contend with Yuuto.
"But Akashi passed." Taiga Kagami discovered the key to the problem.
"In other words, at this step, even the Emperor Eye's prediction isn't absolute anymore." Teppei Kiyoshi and the others took a deep breath.
Swish!
The ball went in; Mayuzumi Chihiro received Akashi's assist and hit a jump shot.
"We've never played a match like this before." Mibuchi Reo and the others felt extremely heavy-hearted.
Their lineup should have been number one in the country, plus Akashi, the captain steering the super aircraft carrier Rakuzan.
In the end, they were the ones at a disadvantage.
That King of Seiho was truly unreasonable.
Buzz~
Golden light bloomed from Yuuto's body as he engaged Akashi at extreme speed.
Eye to eye, man to man, incomparably fierce.
Their actions weren't complex; at least not the irregular rhythm of Aomine, nor the ever-changing imitation of Kise.
Everyone could understand their movements, but deeper levels were probably only clear to the two of them.
"Those two pairs of eyes aren't simple. The information we see is only a small part; a higher-level contest is hidden beneath the surface."
Katsunori Harasawa, Masaaki Nakatani, and Kagetora Aida all came to the scene.
Several old friends gathered together.
But even these former professional players couldn't understand the contest between the two.
Because the talents of those two geniuses were too high, uniquely endowed by nature. If either one were thrown into their era, they would have a great chance of reaching the top.
"However, it looks like Yuuto has the upper hand now."
Basketball matches might not truly be team-first.
Every era, one or two players who cannot be treated with common sense will appear.
From the era of Chamberlain and Russell to the era of Magic and Bird, and later the era where Jordan dominated alone.
These players all possessed talents defying common sense and abilities to crush opponents. Their talent was like God's cheating code for humans.
Now Yuuto also had this trend; he was gradually moving towards becoming a super player who could solve problems by "giving me the ball."
Akashi encountered big trouble.
The destructive power of his Ankle Breaker decreased.
Saying this might not be accurate, but Yuuto's response was composed and unhurried.
The opponent's eyes and correction talent exerted force simultaneously, adapting to his style; in terms of prediction ability, he was approaching the Emperor Eye.
Since taking control of the body, Yuuto's evolution had been happening all the time.
Smack~
Finally, Akashi found a flaw and poked the ball away.
However.
He only saw the new Seiho captain follow the momentum, turning like lightning to the other side.
At that position, Mibuchi Reo was already in place, ready to complete a double-team with Akashi at any time.
Yuuto's mouth corners raised, a cold snort issued from his throat. Then they saw him actively pull the ball back, changing the original direction of impact to lean on Mibuchi Reo's side.
At this moment.
Mibuchi Reo became the best obstacle to block Akashi. Yuuto shot a jumper over Mibuchi Reo and scored.
"Yuuto scored directly! Could his correction be complete?"
"Not necessarily; more likely an accident. But if this continues, the completion of his correction isn't far off."
Indeed not far off.
Akashi could feel it, so he thought about trying to borrow the power of teammates.
This defense was him actively forcing Yuuto to that position, and in fact, he did succeed once.
Unfortunately, the opponent had already corrected; such a double-team was useless.
"Sorry, Sei-chan!"
"Nothing to do with you; it's my problem."
Akashi admitted directly it was his problem. Mibuchi Reo was flattered, looking up only to see helplessness in Akashi's eyes.
"Lies, Sei-chan would also show such an expression?"
