After a perfect layup, the basketball hit the net and landed on the ground with a thud.

Saito, who landed safely, turned around and smiled.

A series of gorgeous movements made the audience gasp in surprise.

"Phew - as expected of you, partner."

Taniguchi, who ran over, exchanged blows with him and secretly winked at Yusuke.

The two of them passed Kato Yusuke with a victor's attitude and ran towards their own area.

"The talent is good, but the experience is not enough..." Teacher Misaki pondered thoughtfully.

At this moment, there were new changes on the field.

I saw the young man trying to pass the ball from the center who got the ball, and then raised his arm backwards, making a throwing motion.

——Whoosh.

In the tall center's open-mouthed expression.

From outside the three-point line on the red side to the basket on the black side.

The basketball drew a beautiful parabola in the air and flew over everyone's heads.

——Shua.

The crisp sound of brushing the net sounded on the court.

【62:44】

"No, isn't it!?" Taniguchi exclaimed exaggeratedly.

Saito, who had just walked halfway through, suddenly stopped and looked back suddenly.

I saw the young man staring at somewhere in the stands, with a sunny smile on his face.

Following his gaze, there were two girls sitting in the corner of Class 2, Class 3.

Saito frowned and took a deep breath.

Shock appeared in everyone's eyes.

"Go and guard him——! Don't let him get the ball!" Mr. Shibata shouted from the sidelines.

Black's players looked at each other and looked at the center of the team.

"The teacher said so, so what should we do? Partner."

Facing Taniguchi's inquiry, Saito nodded solemnly.

"...Do as Mr. Shibata says."

Only then did everyone act according to the words.

"What's going on with this kid's hit rate? It's definitely abnormal!"

"I don't know, but it's fun, isn't it?"

"Are you too optimistic!?"

"He also has shortcomings. Try to use more fake moves."

"Is this really the case..." Taniguchi muttered.

An invisible pressure deeply enveloped their hearts.
