A Fake?

This boy....He looked around 90% like a young Aomine Daiki!

But he shouldn't be here in the first place!

That's what Reo thought. Transmigrating to a basketball world was bad enough but if he had to deal with the Generation of Miracles in his path to become the strongest, things would become a lot more harder!

With this in mind, Reo couldn't help but use the Talent Scan on the boy standing behind Mikasa.

However, when he saw the results....he nearly fell over in shock.

[Talent Scan Initiating....]

[Target Acquired!]

Name: Mibuchi Daiki

Height: 156cm

Talent: C- (Developing)

Specialty:-

Free Form

Remark: A fraud with the name of a legend. The system is too embarrassed to even comment on him.

This...What was this?!

Reo thought that this guy might be some sort of bigshot but in the end, he was only a fraud!

See! Even the system said so itself!

A 'C-' talent? What a disgrace!

'Anyone who caries the 'Daiki' name must have at least an 'S+' ranked talent!', Reo thought ferociously.

As someone who could only watch but not play basketball in his previous world, Reo had been a hardcore fan of the anime, 'Kuroko no Basket'.

To see someone with such low talent disgracing the name of Aomine Daiki made Reo want to stick him in a garbage bin.

The system, on the other hand, who was reading Reo's thoughts was utterly speechless.

It couldn't help but think.

'You're talent is only 'D-' but here you are criticizing others. Your shamelessness makes this humble system feel insignificant'

Thankfully Reo couldn't read the system's thoughts otherwise another World War would soon follow.

Meanwhile, Mibuchi was sizing up Reo after sensing Reo's gaze on him.

It seems like this was the guy who was following Mikasa-chan to the Street Ball Rumble. As such, he couldn't help sizing Reo up.

'Below average height, less handsome than him and even has a goofy look....How is this guy any better than me?!', Mibuchi exclaimed in his mind.

To him ,Reo was someone who stood no chance in their competition for Mikasa-chan so how was this unsuspecting fella the friend of such a beauty.

However, when he looked at Reo's eyes, he was taken back because he saw a look of....contempt!

Mibuchi's nostrils flared in anger when he saw that look.

This bastard was actually looking down on him?! What qualifications does he have to do so?!

Did he think that he stood no chance against Reo in their competition for Mikasa-chan's affection.

It was at this moment that Mibuchi wanted more than anything than to stuff Reo in a toilet bowl and flush him away forever like the turd that he was.

He really thought that Mibuchi had no chance against him in their competition for Mikasa-chan?!

Meanwhile, Mikasa was unaware of the two astray thoughts in both boys' minds.

Instead, she calmly introduced Mibuchi to Reo.

"Reo-kun, this is Mibuchi. He says he can guide us to the Street Ball Rumble"

Also, while Mikasa said this, she was deliberately winking from the side as if telling Reo to secretly get rid of Mibuchi.

Reo who had just introduced himself to Mibuchi felt question marks rise above his head.

He had already been there before so what was the point in having Mibuchi guide them?

'Also, what was with Mikasa's winking', Reo thought as he looked at Mikasa's poor attempt at a wink.

Suddenly, a light bulb flashed in his mind. He found out what Mikasa was trying to tell him.

Then, clearing his throat, he spoke to Mibuchi.

"We don't really need anyone to guide us to the Street Ball Rumble....",Reo started.

Mibuchi's face become a bit ugly when he heard that. This fella was trying to deliberately chase him away.

Meanwhile, Mikasa looked happy as she saw Reo handle Mibuchi.

Truly, only Reo could truly understand her.

However, Reo's next words changed all of that.

"Still, you can join us in going to the Street Ball Rumble. The more, the merrier", Reo finished.

He looked at Mibuchi plainly as he recalled Mikasa's wink.

Mikasa was probably trying to make a new friend or maybe she was interested in this boy since she was coming to that age. So, Reo decided to make things easier for her and invited Mibuchi to tag along with them.

This would make it easier for Mikasa and Mibuchi to get along with each other.

Mibuchi was stunned for a moment when he heard Reo finish his sentence and soon, confusion followed.

Wasn't this guy his competition? Why was he suddenly inviting him along?

However, when he saw Reo looking at him plainly, he instantly felt like throwing a basketball at him.

This fella was looking at him like how people looked at air! Insignificant!

At this moment, Mibuchi suddenly thought of a plot.

Was this fella deliberately inviting him just so he can show that he had no shot at Mikasa-chan when they were together with him.

Mibuchi couldn't help but gnash his teeth in frustration. This fella was looking down on him too much!

For the first time in his life, he had never felt this disgraced. Thinking about this, Mibuchi felt like he should teach Reo a lesson.

Didn't Mikasa-chan say that he was going to participate in the Street Ball Rumble? Good, then he would show Reo their differences on the court and thoroughly humiliate him!

As for Mikasa who was standing at the side, her lips twitched uncontrollably as she felt like throwing her candy at Reo's head.

'Reo, you super big dummy!', Mikasa thought angrily.

She wanted Reo to chase this bad fella away but instead of listening to her, this dummy actually invited him along to the Street Ball Rumble.

'He must be doing this on purpose! Lousy Reo, I hope that you will become a smelly old man forever!', Mikasa cursed Reo in her heart.

To her, this fella's naughty character had not disappeared at all but instead, he hid it deep down and waited for the perfect moment to strike.

This was 10000 times worse than before!

Meanwhile, Reo didn't know that he had been targeted by these 2 youngsters. In his heart, he had done a noble service to the human race.

To introduce to young people who will become a lovey-dovey couple in the future who will soon produce a thousand descendants and continue on the human race.

Of course, he was exaggerating the later part but if Mikasa were to learn his thoughts....It's best not to think of the curses that he would go through.

The amount would probably be enough to last him through 10 reincarnations.

Looking at these 2 who were now glaring at him, Reo felt that they might be too angry in letting them be together too straightforwardly so the only thing he could do was cough awkwardly to divert their attention.

"Uhum....The Street Ball Rumble is going to be starting soon so we best be on our way"

Hearing that, both Mibuchi and Mikasa took a while to suppress their rage before they nodded as well.

Soon, the trio made their way towards the same court where Reo had seen his first Street Ball Rumble.

Along the way, Reo couldn't help but notice a few strange things.

Like whenever Mibuchi tried to start a conversation with Mikasa, she would quickly shut him down with only a single word answer and walk ahead of him.

Reo even wondered if Mikasa was too shy to talk to Mibuchi. After all, not every girl could quickly accept the changes happening to them.

However, he commended Mibuchi in his persistence to chase after Mikasa continuously.

Mibuchi, fight on!

Mikasa however was less than pleased to see Mibuchi constantly disturbing her and couldn't help but glare at Reo throughout the entire journey.

This fellow was so unreliable! Instead of chasing this bad fella away, he actually invited him along!

She was definitely going to remember this.

As for Mibuchi, he was still confident in his ability to chase after Mikasa-chan but after getting ignored continuosly, he couldn't help but feel a bit bitter.

To make it worse, she was staring at Reo's back throughout this entire time!

This made Mibuchi's hate for Reo to rise to a whole new level. It seemed that his confidence in him not getting Mikasa-chan's attention while he was there, came true after all.

As such, the misunderstanding continued all the way until they reached the Street Ball Rumble.

As it was still early, most people haven't shown up yet. Those that were here were only the contestants signing up or those that had nothing better to do in their lives at the moment.

This week was the basketball challenge for those under 15 students who were still in elementary and middle school. As the skill level for those in elementary and middle school were way behind those in high school and university, not many people came to watch them as they won't be able to pull off any fancy moves for their entertainment.

Reo naturally didn't care about this and proceeded to head towards the DJ station where registrations were being held.

At the DJ station was the same DJ that Reo had seen previously at his first Street Ball Rumble.

Tall, dark skin and cool shades....This DJ constantly gave off vibes like he was a party freak.

When he saw Reo approaching the counter, he couldn't help but pop up a grin.

"Here for registrations, kid?"

Reo was a bit uncomfortable. Although he was already in this world for 3 weeks, he was still uncomfortable with being called a kid.

After all, he was someone with the mentality of an 18 year old. Still, he pushed down his discomfort and showed a toothy smile.

"Yes, oni-san. This is my first time signing up for the Street Ball Rumble"

"Also, I heard that the prize money last time was 10000 yen. What is the prize money for today?"

The DJ was slightly taken back when he heard this.

This kid looked like 12 years old, the most and he was already asking about the prize money.

Still....He liked his style.

The DJ couldn't help but become a tad bit friendlier. This kid had the same style as him when he was a boy.

"The 10000 yen cash prize was for the over 15 category 3 weeks back and for the last 2 weeks, we were catering for the adult category above 25 years old. Their prize money was 15000 yen"

"For the under 15 category like today, the prize money will be 5000 yen. However, the registration fees will be 200 yen"

For a normal elementary or middle school student,200 yen was kind of a high price as it cut into nearly 15% of their monthly allowance.

However, this was a different world altogether.

For those young basketball lovers, sacrificing 200 yen was just a small drop in the lake compared to the biweekly experience that they could accumulate each month from the Street Ball Rumble.

Also, with more than 50 participants, the management of the Street Ball Rumble was making by no means a small sum.

So, after the DJ stated the price, Reo quickly took out 200 yen and placed it on the counter without a word.

Seeing this boy going straight into business, the DJ couldn't help but flash a smile as he collected the money.

Then, he passed Reo a clipboard which consisted of multiple names.

"Fill in your name, school and age, kid. I'll register you in shortly"

Reo merely nodded as he started filling in his details quickly.

When he came to the age column, Reo couldn't help but ponder over it for a little while.

Should he put in 11 years old. After all, according to the year, he was already 11 years old. However, he still hadn't entered his senior year in elementary school or passed his birthday so he was in quite a loss at what to do.

Still, this lasted for only a moment as he soon followed Japan's school standards and put in 10 years. He could change it to 11 years in another month anyways.

Then, as Reo was filling up the form, he felt someone walk up beside him.

Glancing over, he was surprised to see that it was Mibuchi. Was he also going to participate in the Street Ball Rumble?

However, when the DJ saw Mibuchi, he immediately let loose a grin as he held out his fist.

"Mibuchi, my man. Participating again?"

Mibuchi met the DJ's fist with his own as he smiled back.

"Same old, Jax"

Reo was a bit surprised to see this. It seemed that Mibuchi knew the DJ quite well.

Had he participated in the Street Ball Rumble before? Why didn't Mikasa tell him?

Still, as Reo contained his surprise, he couldn't help but ask.

"You know each other?"

Jax still kept the grin on his face and explained.

"This must be your first time coming to the under 15 rumble. If not, you would know this little dude right here"

"He is one of our 2 stars in the under 15 category like Kotaro and Mité from our over 15 category. If I were you, kid I would hope not to meet this little dude on the court"

"His title of 'Loose Cannon' makes him quite a danger for those he would face on the court"

As Jax explained to Reo, Mibuchi couldn't help but let a tinge of pride show on his face.

At the same time, he looked provocatively at Reo as if saying, 'You were acting so high and mighty before, right?! See how I handle you on the court!'.

At the same time, Reo looked especially surprised when Jax said that Mibuchi was one of the 2 stars for tonight.

This fake 'Daiki' was actually a little overlord of the court?

When Reo thought about this, he couldn't help but want to beat the heck out of Mibuchi.

As a hardcore fan of Kuroko no Basket, he had to uphold justice to the millions of fans around the world and dethrone this fake king.

The legacy of 'Aomine Daiki' shall not be sullied!

At the same time, he couldn't help but think.

'Sorry, Mikasa. Looks like you will have to find a new boyfriend from now on'
