Kuroko no Basket: Honored One

Tendou had speculated about many possibilities for his fifth-stage ability.

Limitless, Domain Expansion, Even Ten Shadows Technique had crossed his mind—

But not once had he expected it to be Limitless' ultimate technique—"Unlimited Void."

Aside from his face being suspiciously similar to Gojo Satoru's, and having the Six Eyes, he didn't actually possess any other Gojo-related abilities.

But still—it was a nice bonus.

Tendou was itching to try it out.

He glared forward—no response.

He glared again—still nothing.

"Don't tell me it needs some kind of dramatic pose too?"

He rolled his neck, took a deep breath, and brought his index and middle fingers together.

Then, he muttered under his breath:

"Domain Expansion… Unlimited Void."

...

The next day.

Kirisaki Daiichi basketball club.

Tendou arrived early to organize practice.

Shockingly, the bad boys had all arrived before him.

Thanks to the team's outstanding results this year, the school had given them full permission to skip classes and focus on preparing for the nationals.

As soon as he walked in, Tendou casually tossed a pile of intel on Rakuzan to Hanamiya and the others.

"Must be nice to be good-looking," Hanamiya muttered. "She's supposed to be the enemy and still goes out of her way to prep intelligence for you."

He never liked Momoi—too clever for his taste.

Bad boys preferred their women a little dumber.

But just because he didn't like her didn't mean he lacked taste.

Momoi had top-tier looks, top-tier figure, and a personality that could be sweet or spicy.

No wonder she was every guy's dream girl.

And yet she'd gotten all clingy with Tendou.

"Stop sulking, Hanamiya," Furuhashi said. "Get ready to analyze Rakuzan with us."

Everyone now treated Hanamiya like the team's second-in-command—their strategist.

"You don't need to remind me. I know everything about those three idiots from Rakuzan."

He was, of course, referring to Rakuzan's Three Uncrowned Kings.

As for Akashi, that was out of his jurisdiction.

Taking down that rich kid? That was Tendou's job.

"Besides those three, there's one more you all need to watch out for," Tendou said.

He pulled out a player file and placed it on the table.

On the front:

"Chihiro Mayuzumi."

"Mayuzumi Chihiro?"

"A third-year. Never played in an official match."

"He quit the team in his first year because he couldn't handle Rakuzan's training. But this year, Akashi personally picked him and added him to the starting roster…"

Very ordinary.

Hanamiya and the others skimmed the profile and found him painfully average in every aspect.

But one detail stood out—Akashi had selected him.

And when it came to the vice-captain of the Generation of Miracles, they didn't dare take anyone lightly.

They still remembered how Haizaki got dismantled.

"But Momoi didn't find anything special about him either?"

"Just because she couldn't find anything, doesn't mean he's not special."

Tendou removed his jacket and walked to the court to stretch.

"You all remember Kuroko, right?"

"That invisible guy from Seirin?"

"…Are you telling us this Mayuzumi guy has the same ability?"

Hanamiya wasn't stupid.

From just a few hints, he was already piecing things together.

Anyone valued by both the captain and vice-captain of Teikō couldn't be as ordinary as he appeared on paper.

And Momoi… had even marked him as a "priority target."

But come on—

Was it really possible that there was another guy with an aura so thin he could disappear into a crowd like a stone tossed into the Pacific?

No splash. No ripple.

"Either way, be prepared."

Tendou had finished warming up and signaled for the others to start training.

"I've got something special I want to test."

His test the previous night had yielded limited results.

Because apparently, Unlimited Void didn't work on inanimate objects—walls, furniture, none of it.

The bad boys of Kirisaki Daiichi shivered on the spot.

Every time Tendou picked one of them to test something new, it was never a good thing.

And yet, no matter how much they whined—he always picked Hanamiya.

Come on, man, I already admitted defeat! What more do you want?!

"Just come at me normally," Tendou said, beckoning Hanamiya forward with a finger.

Hanamiya took a breath, still unsure what Tendou was up to, then started his approach.

The next second—

"Domain Expansion."

"Unlimited Void."

Turns out, you didn't need any flashy poses to activate this ability—just silently trigger it in your mind.

And the moment Tendou unleashed it, Hanamiya suddenly felt like the world had gone completely blank.

His expression froze.

His pupils glazed over.

Everything—stopped.

Tendou casually walked forward, picked up the ball from Hanamiya's limp hands, turned around, and launched a three-pointer.

Swish!

It went in.

The rest of the team was stunned.

They had no idea what just happened.

One moment Hanamiya was perfectly fine—then he just… froze.

Didn't even dribble.

Tendou plucked the ball from him like taking candy from a kid.

Only after the shot went in did Hanamiya snap out of it.

Eyes wide, disoriented, he stared at Tendou as if to ask:

"What the hell did you just do to me?"

"I just shoved a massive amount of information into your brain," Tendou said calmly.

In Jujutsu Kaisen, the effect of Unlimited Void was:

"A stream of endless information forced into the opponent's consciousness—paralyzing them with infinite stimuli, leaving them helpless and frozen in time."

You see everything, but can't do anything.

You're trapped in the eternity of thought.

But this wasn't a world of sorcery. Tendou couldn't literally stop time.

Instead, his version of Unlimited Void was more like a data flood, similar to Mitsuya Akuto's information overload.

The difference?

Tendou's didn't fail when the opponent updated their data.

Because the data wasn't just anything—it was future data seen through Tendou's Six Eyes.

There was no clear way to explain it.

Only those who experienced it could understand.

Like Hanamiya now.

He stood frozen, still trying to recover from what just happened.

At that moment, he'd tried to go left and drive past Tendou.

But then—his brain screamed "dead end."

It forced him to reconsider.

Then reject.

Then recalculate.

Then reject again.

His mind looped, endlessly searching for an answer that didn't exist.

That was Kuroko no Basket's version of Unlimited Void—"to live."

Inside the domain, your brain kept thinking and thinking, overclocked into paralysis.

And while it raced—your body couldn't move at all.

"…Is this your sixth eye ability?"

Momoi had shown up at the doorway without anyone noticing.

She stared wide-eyed, jaw slack, looking at Tendou in utter disbelief.
