Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 117 Rukawa Kaede must be stronger than him!

In the 11-minute first half of the match between Shonhoku High School and Otaku High School, Jinguji Budou, who scored 19 points, was replaced by coach Anzai, and Shiozaki was also replaced with Budou.

Of the first graders left on the field, only Miyagi Ryota, Yasuda Yasuharu, and Kakuda Satoru were left. At the same time, Akagi Takenori and Chiba Oishi came on as substitutes.

Wu Dao was replaced, and the audience above the stands made a sound of discussion.

In just 11 minutes of the game, Budao has already left a deep impression on everyone with his own strength. Now that Budao has been replaced, many people are puzzled.

"It's only after playing for such a short time that Xiangbei is planning to hide his strength?"

Fujima looked at the two familiar faces of Akagi Takenori and Chiba Oishi who came off the bench, wondering in his heart, and expressed his speculation.

"Suddenly a strong first grader appeared. I have never heard of it before. It should be a newcomer from Xiangbei, right?"

"Isn't Xiangbei afraid that No.15 will expose his weaknesses if he stays on the field?"

Huagata felt that he had guessed Coach Anzai's intentions, followed Fujima's train of thought, and talked about his speculation with his teammates. Seeing no one refuted him, he continued:
"Although he didn't play for a long time, the No.15 style of play is already very distinctive."

"When defending, the radiation area is not large, and it is limited to the paint area."

"The offense is slow, and the running speed should not be very fast. In the first half of Xiangbei, it was mainly positional warfare. It should be to match the rhythm of the No. 15."

"The position of attacking the ball is very close to the basket. It should not have the ability of mid-range and long-range shots. The attack distance should not be far."

"The footwork under the basket is very skillful, but it is not complicated. It should only be this one move."

"Better than Akagi, who was in the first grade at the time, but still too young."

From the game just now, Hanakata saw the characteristics of the style of play shown in martial arts. After guessing these things, Hanakata couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. According to his speculation, this year's freshman in Xiangbei is very good, but There is still no way to help the team shake their Xiangyang.

"Is that true?" Kenji Fujima nodded silently listening to Hanakata's speculation. After all, there is nothing wrong with what Hanagata said, and it completely fits the playing characteristics of Xiangbei No. 15 just now.

But Fujima always felt that something crucial was missing. He always felt that the strength shown by Jinguji Budo was just the tip of the iceberg. Fujima couldn't say why, it was just a kind of intuition.

When several people were discussing the characteristics of Jinguji's martial arts style and the weaknesses that can be exploited, Hasegawa, who was sitting at the end of Xiangyang's team, suddenly opened his eyes slightly, and whispered:

"That guy! I know who that guy is!"

Hasegawa's voice caught the attention of his teammates, and everyone in Xiangyang looked at him.

"Hasegawa, what are you talking about? What guy?" Kenji Fujima looked at Hasegawa with a puzzled expression, and asked puzzledly.

"Captain, I know who that NO.15 from Xiangbei is!"

"That guy is not a novice at all, he used to be a member of the basketball club of Wushi Middle School!"

Hasegawa said confidently, pointing to Jinguji Budou who was sitting on the court drinking water and watching the game.

"what?"

"A team member from Wushi Middle School?"

"Wushi Middle School still has this kind of team members?"

Everyone in Xiangyang couldn't help talking when they heard this. Xiangyang is a strong basketball player in the county, and they also pay attention to the junior middle school games, especially the strong junior high school.After all, private schools value the source of students very much, and they should pay attention to any school with good seedlings.

But obviously, most of them don't know the NO.15 in Xiangbei.

"Yes, although the figure is very different from before, and the hairstyle has changed a little, but it can't be wrong. That guy used to be a member of Wushi Middle School."

"That person entered the national competition with Wushi when he was in the first grade of junior high school, but later I heard that one of Wushi's team members beat up his opponent in the national competition and was sentenced to a ban."

"So I didn't participate in the competition for two years after junior high school."

"The person who was suspended is the No. 15 from Xiangbei!"

Hasegawa knew quite well about Wushi Middle School, even Budo, a person who disappeared after only playing one game in Wushi, left an impression on him.

After Hasegawa finished speaking, some Xiangyang team members finally recalled that such a thing happened. Some Xiangyang team members are locals, and they were also from various school basketball teams when they were in junior high school. It's very big, and many people have heard of it, but they don't know who was banned. After all, the news media in this era are newspapers and magazines, and there were no photos of explosive martial arts in the reports back then.

Many people actually don't know Wu Dao. The reason why Hasegawa knows it is because he happened to fight Wu Shi Middle School when he was in middle school, and he was deeply impressed by Wu Dao, and he still has an impression of Wu Dao's face.

For another person, if I met him in a hurry and played a game, after two years, would I still be able to recognize martial arts?

"The junior high school student who entered the national competition with Takeshi? The player who returned to the court after being suspended."

"Hasegawa, what kind of player is that No. 15?"

Kenji Fujima pondered for a long time, and asked Hasegawa.Fuji really wants to get to know this newcomer from Xiangbei urgently. In Group B, Xiangyang's biggest opponent is Xiangbei High School.The playing characteristics of Jinguji Budo will be directly related to Xiangyang's response to Xiangbei in the future.

In Fujima's view, apart from Xiangyang, there is no other team in this group that can stop Xiangbei's progress.

"It's completely different from what Huagata just speculated."

"When he was in junior high school, he mainly focused on shooting, and that guy moved very fast and was very good at cutting."

"At that time, Wushi Middle School used Mitsui Shou and him as the core of offense."

Hasegawa stared at Jinguji Budo who was sitting in the rest area at this time, and said to his teammates.Wu Dao seemed to have noticed that someone was staring at him, subconsciously looked towards the top of the stands, and happened to see everyone in Xiangyang.

"People from Xiangyang, that must be Tengzhen, the little thing looks really unique, half of my demeanor."

"That should be in the shape of a flower. It's gentle, and looks so weak that it doesn't look like it's playing basketball."

"The hedgehog head should be Hasegawa, the wandering version of Xiandao, with only one hairstyle. I don't know if I met Mitsui Shou, and dare to say that Xiao San's score is suppressed to 5 points."

Jinguji Budao scanned Xiangyang's players one by one. He could recognize some players, but he didn't know most of them. Contest.

After a substitution in Shohoku, Akagi Takenori and Chiba Oishi entered the field. After Budo was off the field, Shohoku's firepower dropped significantly.

Shohoku's right to shoot was concentrated in the hands of Akagi Takenori and Miyagi Ryota, and Chiba Oishi also took the initiative to play a few shots.Although Akagi and Chiba's shooting percentages in the interior are quite good, the basketball turnover of the entire Xiangbei team is obviously much worse than before.

Moreover, Miyagi also took a lot of shots, but the hit rate was very average. The appearance of a large number of rebounds made Xiangbei's offense look not smooth.

Fortunately, the basket guarded by Akagi Takenori and Chiba Oishi guaranteed Shonhoku's rebounds, which made the score of the two teams open steadily.

Coach Anzai obviously has the idea of ​​training soldiers, Miyagi Ryota also knows the idea of ​​Coach Anzai, seize the opportunity to beat the weak team, make crazy shots, and become a blacksmith.

Seeing the score getting bigger and bigger, the players of Dazhai High School did not give up the game and worked hard on the court.

But things like basketball games don't work hard enough to bring results. Although the players in the mansion are all working hard, and even the player in Fang Miyagi has cramped running legs, there is still no way to stop the difference between the two teams. expansion.

By the end of the first half, Xiangbei High School's score had reached 42 points, while Da Zhai's score was only 16 points.During the intermission, coach Anzai replaced Satoru Kakuda and Ryota Miyagi, and replaced him with Hisashi Mitsui and Kouyan Kogure. Yasuharu Yasuda was still left on the field by coach Anzai.

"Yasuda, you played well in the first half, and you should continue to do so in the second half!"

"Kakuda, your physical training will be strengthened in the future, and you will be overwhelmed in the first half of the game. This kind of physical condition is not good!"

"Shiozaki, you need to increase your basic training. It seems that the previous intensity is still low."

During the break, Mitsui Shou pointed out several first-year players who had the opportunity to play. While teaching, there was also implied encouragement.Coach Anxi watched this scene with a smile, and was very satisfied with the leadership temperament that Mitsui Shou has shown now.

"The image influenced by Coach Anxi and me is really very different!"

"Looking at the appearance of the replacement, it should be to cultivate Yasuda Yasuharu, right? This guy's mentality is very stable. Although he is a rookie, he has the demeanor of a general. If he trains well, he can be a good player in high school, not to mention playing professionally."

In Budo's mind, Coach Anzai belongs to the kind of coach who doesn't care about the team. He doesn't care about the improvement of the players' personal abilities, the team's tactical planning, or the psychological growth of the players.After all, coach Anzai is a coach who can let Mitsui go astray, let Akagi Takenori play with the collapsed team, and let Xiangbei fish at the bottom.

Even after a talented person like Kaede Rukawa joined Xiangbei, coach Anxi did not give Kaede Rukawa any technical guidance. Only when Kaede Rukawa went to coach Anxi and said that he was going to the United States did coach Anxi think of himself. A former student, Rukawa Kaede was dissuaded.

Only when facing a genius of Sakuragi Hanamichi's level, will Coach Anzai truly sink his heart and guide Sakuragi to grow.

But what kind of talent is Sakuragi Flower Road?Without any professional training, without real development, he has grown to 188cm and is 16 years old, but he is a monster who can knock his head on a rebound.

A boy with no hair on his head can knock his head on a backboard. Even if he is well-informed in martial arts, he has never seen such a person.

Coach Anxi is only interested in coaching in the face of this kind of monster. For others?
However, the image of coach Anxi has been subverted in Wu Dao's mind, because everything coach Anxi does now is to prepare for Xiangbei High School to break into the country.Regardless of military training, training young players is to deepen the depth of Xiangbei's bench. Obviously, Coach Anxi is also soberly aware that there is no way to help Xiangbei dominate the country by relying on the main force.

Today's coach Anxi is no longer that fat old man of Buddhist origin, and his ambition has also been revealed.Although Coach Anxi's words are still gentle, the training intensity of the basketball team is not the training intensity that a full-bodied team should have.

Just when Bu Dao was thinking wildly, the second half of the game had already started.

At this time, the five players in Xiangbei on the court, except Yasuda, can be regarded as the main force of the past.After Mitsui Shou came on the field, he took over the offensive banner and led the team to completely destroy Dazhai High School.

After entering the garbage time, Coach Anxi replaced the first-year students except Budo until the end of the game.

88:61, Xiangbei took the lead, but it also saved some face for Da Zhai, and didn't let them lose too badly.

After the game, Xiangbei lined up and shook hands with the Ozhai players one by one. They were fairly strong Ozhai players on the court. At this stage, several players cried out in disappointment.

Jinguji Budao can understand the loss of these young people, but competitive sports are so cruel.

After the game, the Xiangbei players did not watch the next game, and left the arena with the team. Today’s game was just a practice that was not up to standard for the Xiangbei players. After the game, the Xiangbei players will have to meet The school will train for a while to maintain everyone's competitive state.

The next game is three days later, and Xiangbei has plenty of time to adjust the state of the players.

In the evening, just as Takenori Akagi pushed open the door after a day of training, Haruko Akagi ran up to him excitedly, and congratulated him, "Congratulations, brother, for your first victory!"

Akagi Haruko has been excited for the day after watching today's Xiangbei game. She is also a fan and knows the level of high school basketball teams very well.The strength displayed by Xiangbei High School today is obviously much higher than that of other schools.

"Hehe, there's nothing to be happy about. Winning is what it should be." Akagi said while carrying the bag in one hand while changing his shoes.Haruko took Akagi's bag graciously, and happily took Akagi to the restaurant.

"Brother, is the No. 15 of your team the one you said last time you scored 55 points against Lingnan?"

Haruko asked excitedly, her face full of curiosity.

"Huh? It's him. Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Akagi Takenori scratched his head and asked puzzledly.

"Brother, then you must go to Rukawa Kaede's match! Wushi's match will be held the day after tomorrow, and the junior high school schedule will be faster, the day after tomorrow it will be 8 to 4."

"I can assure you, Rukawa Feng must be stronger than him! If you have seen Rukawa Feng's ability, you will be surprised!"

Akagi Haruko stood in front of Akagi Takenori with open arms, and excitedly looked at Rukawa Kaede. The younger sister's attitude made Akagi a little speechless.

"Better than him? After watching a game, you know that Rukawa Feng is stronger than him?"

"Although I don't want to admit it, that kid in Martial Arts has more than just this ability. He has already restrained himself in today's game."

Although Akagi Takenori is not that close to Budo, the guy who sticks with Mitsui Hisashi all day long, Akagi still quite recognizes the ability of this teammate. He will not think that a middle school student is capable of surpassing Jingu Temple Budo.

"Brother, really, go and have a look, you won't be disappointed!"

"What I said is absolutely true!"

Haruko wrapped around Takenori Akagi and pulled Akagi's arm, as if she would not let go unless Akagi watched Rukawa Kaede's game.

"Okay. Okay, just go and have a look."

"The day after tomorrow, right? I happen to be fine, so I'll accompany you to have a look."

"But what's the use of me going to see it? Rukawa Feng may not necessarily join Xiangbei in the future. If he is really as good as you said, some teams beg him to go to those schools."

Akagi reluctantly agreed to Haruko's request, but still expressed his thoughts.

"Senior Mitsui! Let Captain Mitsui go and have a look together! He must also be very curious about Wushi's current level."

"Senior Mitsui is Rukawa Kaede's senior. If he goes to Rukawa Kaede, Rukawa Kaede will definitely go to Xiangbei."

Seeing that her brother agreed, Akagi Haruko jumped up happily, then seemed to think of something, pulled Akagi and said.Akagi perfunctorily agreed, but what he thought in his heart was: "Talk to Mitsui, it's up to him whether he goes or not, it's not up to me."
