27 Humiliation

Akihiko suddenly placed his right hand behind his back as he declared

"One hand, that's all it takes to beat you."

The tall guy scoffed at his remarks as he said

"Don't get too full of yourself."

Akihiko didn't say anymore as he bounced the ball forward. With the same hand, he suddenly bought to ball back to the other side of his body. This maneveur easily made Akihiko pass through his defender.

The tall guy who didn't expect it then said

"Stop him! Stop that damn guy!"

Akihiko who was still dribbling using only one hand finally arrived at the paint. He was nearing the rim as he was met by another defender.

The defender wanted to block Akihiko's shot as the two jumped.

Mid-air, the defender realized that something was wrong. Despite having the same height as Akihiko, he was not able to jump as high as him.

"No way!"

Realization dawned upon him as every single person in the court looked at what was about to happen.

An onlooker who was watching said,

"A dunk?!"

At the same time, Akihiko slammed the ball down towards the rim as he easily dunked on his defender.

His defender fell while Akihiko perfectly landed, Akihiko then proceeded to step over him as he muttered

"Trash."

Akihiko walked away as every single person looked at him, speechless of what happened.

Akihiko's teammates looked at him with a grateful look as Akihiko once again got the ball.

This time the tall guy was silent, but the expression of his face clearly indicated the anger he had against Akihiko.

Akihiko gave a vicious smirk as he once again threw the ball directly at the guy's head, provoking him instantly. One more push would obviously result in a fist fight. But deep inside, the tall guy felt something was wrong. It's as if someone was watching him.

Akihiko was doing ball tricks as he proceeded to do a one-handed crossover. But Akihiko didn't drive the whole way through as they reached the free throw line. From there, Akihiko threw the ball on the backboard. The tall guy didn't know what to expect as Akihiko passed by him and ran towards the rim.

The defenders were still standing still as when they began to react, they already saw Akihiko fly up in the air. The ball that Akihiko threw bounced back to him as Akihiko catched it mid-air.

Every single person was in awe at what was about to transpire. The tall guy blurted out unconciously

"I-impp-ossible."

"A self alley-oop?!"

"No way!?"

Multiple reactions were heard as Akihiko catched the ball mid-air and proceeded to dunk the ball right in.

Akihiko landed safely as he was not surprised that he was able to do such a thing. The hoop was far shorter than what the standard hoop height should be. If it was the usual 10 ft hoop, Akihiko wouldn't be able to accomplish such a dunk.

The tall guy was still shocked as Akihiko came back and held the ball. The tall guy clenched his fists because it was now the match point, a single bucket could end the entire game immediately.

This time Akihiko was using two hands to dribble once again. Akihiko made sure that this tall guy would regret everything that he said.

In the next possession, Akihiko held the ball. The tall guy was focused. But suddenly, Akihiko threw the ball to the backboard as Akihiko pointed up on it. The tall guy instinctively looked at it. Akihiko gave a devilish smile as he proceeded to pull the tall guy's shorts down. The ball bounced back to him as Akihiko grabbed it and passed by his defender.

The tall guy tried to chase after Akihiko but he tripped as he didn't noticed that his shorts were pulled down. The tall guy then said angry

"You little shit!"

Akihiko just gave a smile as he proceeded to dunk the ball, ending the game completely.

After his dunk, Akihiko's teammates came up to say

"Thank you!"

"Thank you so much! You were awesome out there."

Akihiko didn't say much as he went to the tall guy's group. Akihiko then asked his teammate

"What did the tall guy owe you?"

"He owes us our money."

Akihiko then said

"Heard that? Now give them their money."

The tall guy was so frustrated so he didn't want to give them their money. But suddenly, a crowd of people who watched the game and heard their conversation said

"Give them their money!"

"Yeah! You guy's lost fair and square."

"You're a not a real man if you don't give them their money"

Suddenly, the tall guy approached the lanky teenager and threw the money at him reluctantly as he turned around and left.

Before the lanky teenager and his friends could thank Akihiko, they saw that he was no longer there. They then proceeded to have the question

"Where did he go?"

.....

In an empty alley way.

The tall guy and his two friends were smoking cigarretes as they began to recall what happened.

The tall guy then said

"If I see that little shit again, I'll be sure to smash his face in."

"Mind if you repeat what you said?" A voice suddenly interrupted.

The group of friends turned their heads to the direction where the voice was coming from.

From there, they saw Akihiko who was wearing a hood to cover his face. They instantly recognized him because his build and voice.

"You!" the tall guy pointed at him.

But suddenly, Akihiko was in front of him as he delievered a punch right to his face. The tall guy stumbled backward as his two friends came rushing at Akihiko.

Akihiko easily dodged their punches as he landed a kick on one of them, right in the stomach.

The tall guy's friend clutched his stomach hard as he fell to the ground. Akihiko then proceeded to knock another person out with a devastating punch to the side of his head.

The tall guy who was on the ground said

"The devil, you're the devil!"

"What did you say about my mother again?"

Akihiko pulled the guy up and proceeded to kick him right in the balls, hard. Akihiko who recalled what the tall guy said repeatedly kicked him in that same area.

"AAAAaarghhhh!"

A deafening scream was heard in the alley that day. Akihiko walked away and left the group as he proceeded to go home.

......

In the same alley way

"The young master sure did a number on them."

Charles said as he was here to clean up his young master's mess. A bunch of men in black suits came forward and immediately went to work.
