Please tell me about the captioned matter.
I think there is Google's navigation function in the Direction API (which calculates the route connecting the departure and destination), but it doesn't draw the route I want to take, so is there a problem with creating a route search application by myself and drawing the results on Google map?
I felt that it might conflict with (c) No Re-Creating Google Products or Features. of the terms and conditions below.
I would appreciate it if you could let me know.

If you create a "replacement (copy)" of a feature that Google already offers as a service, users of the service through the API will see
I don't know if it's from Google or the developer, and it's not good for both parties.
with API
You can read it as if you were saying something unique.
The question is that it may conflict with (c) No Re-Creating Google Products or Features, but it says don't create a substantially similar service or product.
substantially similar means Substantially similar on English Wikipedia has the following description:
Substantial similarity, in US copyright law, is the standard used to determine which has been inflected the reproduction right of a copyright.
In Japanese, I think the term is similar to "substantial identity" used in copyright.
If you implement your own route search function without using Google's Directions API, and the results of your search are better than Google's navigation function, you wouldn't say there is "substantial identity."
I don't think it's in conflict with Google's rules, so I think you should check with Google in the end.
