[The game entered the fourth quarter. At this time, your deficit had reached 42 points.]
[Tochigi Village fans knew the game was beyond recovery.]
[You felt tired. Aomine Daiki's condition was better than yours, but he was also covered in sweat.]
[Kise Ryōta was unwilling to be lonely. He actively asked for the ball from Akashi and jumped directly against the defender.]
["Should be like this!" Kise Ryōta ignored Ota's help defense, wrist flicking, basketball rising vertically.]
[Ota discovered in horror that this was actually your trademark Mirage Shot.]
["How can it be!" Your teammates sadly discovered that the shot they considered invincible was learned by Kise Ryōta after watching just a few times.]
[Depressed emotions spread throughout your team.]
[Just then, you threw Aomine aside and opened your "bloody mouth" towards Kise Ryōta.]
[With a loud "Bang," Kise Ryōta's shot passed through Ota's palm but was heavily slapped away by you, crashing towards Teiko's bench.]
["This..." Kise Ryōta opened his mouth, somewhat dumbfounded.]
[Your cold eyes swept in his direction. The Golden Retriever only felt the surrounding air dropping rapidly.]
[You lost the game!]
[Post-game statistics: You shot frantically 38 times and got 42 points!]
[Aomine took 8 fewer shots than you but got a game-high 50 points!]
[You improved, got better stats, and didn't lose wildly by 95 points.]
[But you still lost. You refused Akashi's handshake and walked into the tunnel without a word.]
[When leaving, Tochigi Prefecture fans stood up and applauded for you.]
[They felt the game was lost, but you didn't lose!]
[Your high fighting spirit fighting until the last second deeply touched them.]
[Like Tochigi Prefecture, poor for so many years, but always stubbornly moving forward. You never chose to retreat!]
[The game ended. You stopped at the Top 16 again, unable to cross the mountain of Teiko.]
[People watched your back until it disappeared into the player tunnel.]
[The next day, Morning Okukozome reported with your number 10 back figure, "Homi Academy No. 10 Best Embodies the Spirit of Tochigi Prefecture! See You Next Year!"]
[Soon after, news of Teiko successfully defending their title swept the country.]
[The name of the Generation of Miracles began to spread across the country.]
[However, when fans talked about the great achievements of the Generation of Miracles Five with relish, they always mentioned your name.]
[They also gave you a nickname: [The Lion of Okukozome]. The former is your location, and the latter describes you as strong and domineering as a lion.]
[Meanwhile, as Hayama Kotarō and others entered high school, their outstanding performance won them the title of "Uncrowned Kings."]
[Soon after, Homi Academy basketball club held a farewell ceremony.]
[You took over the position of basketball club captain from Ota.]
[It was summer vacation.]
[With money, the Kasugano siblings discussed and decided to take a long-lost trip to let you, who have been tense all along, relax properly.]
[They thought you would refuse and had prepared arguments to persuade you.]
[Unexpectedly, you agreed.]
[They thought you were possessed. You, who never leave the ball, actually agreed to travel with them.]
[You poked Sora's forehead with one hand, stopping her from sticking to you.]
[You told them, "Just one week. I still have time."]
[You prepared to go to Okinawa. Sora dragged you to buy swimsuits.]
[The two of you came to a shop. Sora chose several sets and dragged you into the changing room to ask for your opinion.]
[Sora became bolder!]
[You looked, looked openly, but nothing else happened besides that.]
[You also went to buy a set of basketball equipment.]
[You bought a brand new basketball, bought several sets of training clothes, and also bought a pair of Kobe 4s!]
[Kobe 4 has always been your favorite sneaker. This sneaker is subversive and is also recognized as a "God Shoe."]
[You chose the purple and gold color scheme. You thought in your heart, even if it is a parallel time and space, if there is a chance in the future, you will definitely go to Los Angeles to find that Black Mamba.]
[You went on a one-week trip. Sora played very happily, but you and Haruka found that besides playing, Sora would read some financial readings.]
[You thought this was a good thing and ignored it. You continued practicing.]
[Back in Okukozome, your training intensity increased. The duel with Aomine Daiki made you realize the importance of technique.]
[While consolidating your mid-range shot, you added three-point shooting practice.]
[You quickly mastered the three shooting actions of Heaven, Earth, and Void, but the shooting percentage needs improvement.]
[More than a month later, your shooting percentage was still unstable.]
[You found the problem. You started adjusting your shooting motion.]
[Mibuchi Reo's shooting ultimately belongs to him. Every player's shooting rhythm is different.]
[Like Kuroko Tetsuya. With ordinary shooting, he couldn't throw the ball into the hoop at all, but after changing the shooting motion, he hit every shot.]
[You thought of Aomine's advice to Kuroko Tetsuya back then: shoot however feels comfortable.]
[There is great wisdom in these words, although that idiot Aomine definitely didn't think that much when he said it.]
[You started looking for your own shooting rhythm. You spent a month finally finding the shooting posture most suitable for you. Your shooting percentage began to improve steadily.]
[Summer vacation ended.]
[Long-term hard work made your Heaven, Earth, and Void shots sufficient to be put into actual combat.]
[However, this is not enough to become your conventional weapon; it can only serve as a deterrent.]
[School started. Basketball club activities started again, although you also frequently asked members to return for training camps during the summer vacation.]
[On this day, Homi Academy welcomed an unexpected guest.]
[A person with light blue hair and extremely weak presence shuttled through Homi Academy.]
[At noon, your lackey handed the information of this year's new members to you.]
[Every beginning of the year is the best time for major clubs to introduce newcomers. This determines the scale and activity funds of the club for the coming year.]
[The basketball club is no exception. You sent people early to recruit new students.]
[Of course, you won't force newcomers to join like those two perverted seniors in Grand Blue.]
[You looked through the new member information and didn't see familiar names.]
[But that makes sense. In the main series of Kuroko, the important supporting characters that appeared were either third years or first years. What geniuses can there be among unmentioned middle school students? Picking up leaks to strengthen the lineup is too difficult.]
[Just when you were about to give up, the four big characters "Kuroko Tetsuya" suddenly caught your eye.]
