------------------------
The cheers, like an invisible lid, enveloped the stadium.
The two opposing figures seemed to freeze for a moment.
The silent scene blended into the surging roar, creating a jarring contrast.
A bone-chilling coldness spread outwards from Ryu.
Ryu's eyes seemed veiled in ice, radiating an icy chill.
In his vision.
Countless icicles, radiating frost, were embedded throughout the stadium.
Ryu locked onto one of the icicles beside Akashi.
In an instant, that icicle exploded as if without warning, dissipating into countless ice crystals into the air.
Meanwhile.
Under everyone's gaze.
Ryu, who had lost his balance and was about to fall before Akashi's Emperor Eye.
The backward fall abruptly stopped, as if frozen in time.
Akashi's indifferent crimson pupils suddenly contracted.
His previously calm and confident expression now betrayed disbelief.
In the world he saw:
Those future scenes, like photographs, were suddenly enveloped by a sudden chill, instantly covering them with a layer of ice.
Like a photograph being dropped into liquid nitrogen, ice crystals spread until they were completely frozen.
Crack...crack...crack...
Accompanied by the sound,
the future scenes cracked inch by inch, finally exploding without warning, countless shattered images encased in ice crystals melting and dissipating along with them.
This sudden scene
shocked everyone who knew about the Emperor Eye.
Whether it was the people of Rakuzan or the Generation of Miracles in the audience.
Without exception, they were all utterly astonished, their eyes wide with disbelief.
The power of the Emperor Eye was known to everyone who had witnessed it.
Especially those who had personally experienced it, the Generation of Miracles and the "Uncrowned Five."
It could be said that Akashi, possessing the Emperor Eye, was practically invincible.
But what had just happened had completely overturned their understanding.
Akashi's Emperor Eye had failed against Ryu.
"How is this possible?"
Reo Mibuchi's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Ryu, who had stopped falling.
"He didn't fall? Did that move fail?"
Kotaro Hayama exclaimed in horror.
The members of the Toho Kotei Gakuen were less agitated.
They had no idea of the Emperor Eye's existence.
Kugawa noticed the slight change in the expressions of the Rakuzan group and asked in confusion.
"What's going on? The people on the other side seem a bit strange."
"Who knows! Their gazes are all fixed on those two. Something must have just happened!"
Kuroki analyzed.
"Akashi's Emperor Eye has been broken!"
Kise exclaimed.
"Emperor Eye? What's that?"
Kasamatsu Yukio, standing beside Kise, asked.
...
"Emperor Eye, it's an eye that can see into the future. Whether attacking or defending, nothing can escape its gaze, because it can see the opponent's next move."
Murasakibara's words made Himuro Tatsuya's pupils widen.
"No way! If that's the case, then what about Ryu? Judging from your expressions just now, he must have broken through the opponent's Emperor Eye!"
Murasakibara was silent for a moment, then said.
"That's what surprised me too. Just now, it was obvious that Ryu was about to fall, but I don't know what method he used to stay upright."
...
"Is it that?"
Midorima's sudden words drew the attention of the Generation of Miracles.
He recalled as he spoke.
"I remember Momoi saying before that Ryu told her he also has special eyes, but I might forget because Ryu doesn't use them.."
Hearing this, the members of the Generation of Miracles were all taken aback.
they remembers the matter vaguely.
Momoi Satsuki chimed in.
"Yes, Ryu told me he has special eyes that can see an opponent's weak points, but I didn't know they could hold their own against Akashi's eyes.,' I think it should be something comparable to the Emperor Eye."
"An eye comparable to the Emperor Eye, huh?"
Aomine murmured, but his gaze never left the court.
...
On the basketball court.
Akashi continued dribbling the basketball.
Ryu had regained his balance and was no longer on the verge of falling.
The two locked eyes.
Akashi's expression returned to its indifferent state.
But a closer look reveals a slight furrow between his brows.
"What did you just do?"
Ryu's gaze was calm, his icy silver eyes meeting Akashi's Emperor Eye without flinching.
"People often say we have many similarities, but I don't agree. I won't rely on my eyes to play like you."
Hmm?
Ryu's words caused Akashi a moment of confusion.
Soon, he seemed to realize something, his pupils contracted, and he said.
"You really are..."
Before he could finish, he saw the corners of Ryu's mouth turn up.
Ryu said.
"Back in middle school, from the moment you defeated Murasakibara, I've been wondering which is stronger, my Hyotei Eye or your Emperor Eye. Come on, Akashi, let me see its power."
As soon as she finished speaking,
Ryu's eyes flashed with icy light, surrounded by a chilling aura.
A chilling aura swept outwards from him.
Seeing the change in Ryu's eyes and feeling the bone-chilling cold,
Akashi's crimson eyes shrank to pinpoints.
'The Eye of the Ice Emperor?'
He found it hard to accept what was happening before him.
'How could there possibly be eyes that rival the Emperor Eye? Don't get too cocky, Ryu.'
The crimson halos around Akashi's eyes flickered incessantly.
However, this time, the future he envisioned was frozen and shattered time and time again.
No matter how he attacked, he couldn't break through Ryu's defenses.
Ryu was the same.
No matter how he defended or intercepted, he couldn't steal the ball from Akashi.
The countless ice hammers in his eyes shattered one by one in Akashi's Emperor Eye.
The two pairs of eyes were evenly matched.
The two were locked in a stalemate.
"he can't break through."
Murasakibara had stopped eating his snacks.
His eyes were fixed on the two fighting below.
The Emperor Eye, which had invincible against him, was now completely useless against Ryu.
The match continued.
With the score deadlocked, Akashi finally chose to pass the ball.
His gaze was sharp and piercing, his indifference now veiled with a murderous aura.
'Such provocation will make you see who truly reigns supreme.'
Ryu's gaze also turned icy, but his words were remarkably calm.
'You're too arrogant, Akashi. What do you mean by reigning supreme? That's just wishful thinking. I told you before, I'll send you back to where you belong.'
'Ryu...'
Akashi seemed to have been hit where it hurt, becoming somewhat agitated, his voice rising several decibels.
His aura intensified, as if he wanted to crush the defiant Ryu into pieces.
"Hmph..."
Ryu snorted coldly, then unleashed an indescribable, immense aura, instantly isolating Akashi's oppressive presence.
The two stared at each other from a distance, a great battle was about to erupt.
