Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 227 Two Monkeys!

"This Mingchuan Junior High School?"

"Coach, what school is this, I've never heard of it before!"

The second stop for Coach Anxi to recruit new players was to come to this place called Mingchuan Junior High School.The place where the train stopped was at the foot of a mountain far away from the urban area. The middle school that appeared in front of Jinguji Budo at this time was on the mountainside.

Everyone walked for more than ten minutes from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, a remote junior high school campus that can no longer be remote.

If Coach Anxi hadn't brought everyone here, Budao would not have known that there was such a remote middle school in Kanagawa Prefecture. Would anyone really come to school in such a location?
"Hohohoho."

"It's an elementary school in the countryside. An old friend teaches physical education here."

"I heard that our Xiangbei basketball team has a special move. He asked me to come here to have a look, and wanted to introduce an excellent player to me."

Coach Anxi looked at the middle school with mottled walls in front of him, and there was a little nostalgia in his expression.

After Wu Dao heard the words, he looked at the school a few times, then turned his head to look down the mountain.

The entrance of Mingchuan Middle School is an open space. From the position on the mountainside, you can easily see the bottom of the mountain. There are few pedestrians on the mountain road, and there are few vehicles passing by on the road at the foot of the mountain.Surrounded by lush green plants, the air is fresh and refreshing. If this place is a temple or a Taoist temple, there is no sense of disobedience in martial arts.

But one country.
"Let's go." The door of Mingchuan Middle School was open, and there was no security guard in the small room next to the door. Maybe it was because of the holiday, this school didn't seem to be afraid of outsiders entering at all.

The campus area of ​​Mingchuan Middle School is very small. There may be only three teaching buildings in total, the tallest one is only six floors, and the shorter one is only three floors.

After entering the door, there is a spacious playground. In the middle of the playground is a concrete basketball court. There are a few teenagers who look like students playing three-on-three basketball games there.

On the edge of the basketball court, an old man was sitting on the ground, watching the youngsters in the court playing ball, with a bright smile on his face.

Coach Anxi led Wu Dao and others across the track around the playground to the concrete field, ignored Wu Dao and others, and chatted with the old man sitting on the ground.

"Unexpectedly, there is such a junior high school in Kanagawa. I don't think there is a basketball hall in this school. Does the basketball team here really have players suitable for us in Xiangbei?"

Looking at the surrounding campus environment, Mitsui Shou asked with some doubts.The facilities of this middle school are really bad. The outer walls of the teaching buildings that come into view have begun to fall off, looking in disrepair, and he just casually glanced at the teenagers who were playing ball, and they were not so tall. A particularly outstanding person, in his opinion, this school does not have any "reinforcing" players.

"You can't say that. Unexpectedly, you will see him here!"

Wu Dao looked at the group of teenagers playing on the court, and saw a familiar figure among the crowd, with a smile on his face.

"Long Zheng, I'm here." Coach Anxi walked to the side of the old man sitting on the sidelines, with his hands behind his back, while watching the teenagers playing on the court, he greeted him.

"Well! You're here, I was thinking, if you don't come, I'll take my grandson home for dinner first."

The little old man sitting on the ground glanced up at Coach Anxi and said with a smile.

"Hohohoho, I've been delayed for a while."

"You said you want to introduce to my team members, which one is it?"

Coach Anxi looked at the players on the field and explained.

"I haven't seen each other for so many years. When we meet, it's a team member. Don't you want to catch up with old friends?"

"Isn't your eyesight very good, just look and see which one catches your eyes!"

The old man known as Long Zheng was an old acquaintance with Coach Anxi, and he didn't mean to explain, so he raised his chin to signal Coach Anxi to look for himself.

"Hoho." Coach Anxi smiled and looked at the court quietly.

"Pass! Pass!"

On the court at this time, a teenager in a white T-shirt was cutting quickly to the inside from outside the three-point line, shouting for the players to pass the ball while running.

The boy is about 170cm tall, and his figure looks quite thin, but when he runs, he moves quite fast. In the blink of an eye, he has reached the middle distance and is less than two meters away from the basket.

At the same time, the basketball passed from the hands of his teammates and fell into the hands of the teenager. The teenager caught the ball and took off directly after two steps.

"Huh?!" Mitsui Shou, who was watching the game from the sidelines, saw this scene, his eyelids twitched, and he cast his eyes on the boy in the field.

The boy in white jumped up, and in the blink of an eye, the arm that caught the ball actually surpassed the basket. The next second, the boy grabbed the ball with one arm, and it was a split dunk, pouring the basketball into the basket. The huge force Let the whole basketball hoop start to shake.

The boy in white dunked into the basket, fell back to the ground, turned his head to look at the old man on the sidelines, and shouted:
"Grandpa! Look! I really am a genius, right?!"

"Hahahaha!"

The young man's face was full of proud smiles. Long Zheng, who was sitting on the ground next to Coach Anxi, smiled and waved when he saw this scene. Then he stopped playing charades and turned to Anxi Guangyi and said:

"That is my grandson, Kiyota Nobunaga, who is in the third year of junior high this year."

"Hehe, speaking of it, if I hadn't heard that you Xiangbei broke into the national competition this year and reached the top 8, next spring, I plan to post my old face and let my grandson enter Hainan."

"How is it? My grandson, are you okay?"

The old man who was called Long Zheng by coach Anxi said with a smile, his face was full of pride, although his mouth was modest, it looked like he was showing off no matter what.

"Why is it our Xiangbei, not Lingnan? Lingnan's grades are better than ours in Xiangbei."

Coach Anxi was still smiling and asked seemingly casually.

"Hmph! Do you want me to praise you?" Long Zheng let out his nostrils, snorted softly, patted the ground, and said unhappily.

"Hohohohoho."

Coach Anxi smiled, but did not speak.At this time, Kiyota Ryumasa beckoned to Kiyota Nobunaga in the field.Seeing Kiyota Ryomasa's gesture, Kiyota Nobunaga immediately trotted over, while the other five players on the field saw Kiyota Nobunaga leave, looked at each other, and began to throw the ball casually.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?" Kiyota Nobunaga ran to his grandfather, but his eyes were on Coach Anxi's body. After bowing to Coach Anxi, he asked his grandfather.

"Here, this one is the coach of Xiangbei High School, Coach Anxi."

"Didn't you keep telling me about Xiangbei High School? Then I invited you here."

Kiyota Ryumasa put his hands on the ground and stood up slowly. Kiyota Nobunaga hurried forward two steps and helped Kiyota Ryumasa up.Standing up, Kiyota Ryumasa brushed the dust off his butt, and suddenly turned his head to look at Jinguji Budo and others not far behind Coach Anzai.

Kiyota Ryumasa is about the same age as Coach Anzai, with a thin body, but his face is not as round as Coach Anzai's, which is sloppy, but his eyes are quite clear. After sizing up Jinguji Budo , smashed his mouth, and sighed softly:
"Talent! It's really a terrifying talent!"

"It's a pity, it's a pity."

Kiyota Ryumasa praised a few times at first, but then there was a look of regret on his face, and he patted Kiyota Nobunaga's shoulder while speaking.

Hisashi Mitsui, Hanamichi Sakuragi and the others also noticed that Kiyota Ryumasa was observing Jinguji Budo. Hearing these words, they looked at each other strangely, not knowing what the other was regretting.

But Budo knows that the pity Kiyota Ryumasa said was not to himself, but to
"Ohhhhhhh!!! Shonhoku!!!"

"Coach Anxi from Xiangbei!!!"

"Then. ohh! Jinguji Budo-senpai and Mitsui Shou-senpai!!"

Kiyota Nobunaga had also noticed Jinguji Budao and Mitsui Shou who were not far away at this time, and when he saw the faces of Jinguji Budou and Mitsui Shou, he immediately jumped up happily.

In the junior high school basketball circle in Kanagawa Prefecture, the names of Jinguji Budo and Mitsui Shou are still somewhat well-known.Moreover, Kiyota Nobunaga himself has watched the Shohoku High School competition, and he is somewhat familiar with Jinguji Budo and Mitsui Shou.

Seeing Bu Dao two people for a while, he was as happy as seeing fans of idols.

"Hehe, my grandson, I have some admiration for those two team members of yours."

"Anxi, how about it, my grandson, can he become your special move in Xiangbei!"

Kiyota Ryumasa grabbed his grandson's back by the neck, lifted Kiyota Nobunaga in front of him, and asked Coach Anzai, but his tone was quite affirmative, full of confidence in his grandson's ability confidence.

"Of course!" Coach Anxi nodded without any nonsense.

Sometimes, the selection of coaches is very difficult, but sometimes, the selection of coaches is also very simple.With just one ball, coach Anxi has already realized the talent of the boy in front of him, a talent visible to the naked eye!
"Hey, why is it so simple?"

"Aren't there many test items?"

Seeing this, Yingmu Huadao said with some displeasure, not long ago, he just became a special move, and Coach Anzai was not so easy to talk to at that time, there were many test items, but when it came to Kiyota Nobunaga, it was just a sentence Talk about it?

This made Sakuragi a little annoyed.

"Hehe, it's obvious, what else needs to be tested?"

"It's not because of how outstanding your skills are that you can become Xiangbei's special move, Sakuragi."

"The height of this kid is around 170cm by visual inspection. A third-year middle school student with this height can actually dunk."

"Even if it's a high-level basket in junior high school, this ability is too powerful."

"I haven't developed yet, my explosive power and jumping have not yet reached their peak!"

Jinguji Budou had already recognized Kiyota Nobunaga, he did not expect that the player coach Anzai traveled so far to recruit was actually Kiyota Nobunaga, originally Budou had been wondering how Hainan recruited the "Nobunaga Kiyota" baby".After all, Kiyota Nobunaga was not very famous when he was in junior high school, otherwise, Rukawa Kaede would not have any impression.

But now the way of martial arts is somewhat clear, I am afraid that Kiyota's junior high school team has reached a certain level, and they are not even qualified to bump into Rukawa Kaede.Kiyota Nobunaga himself also relied on his grandfather's relationship and his own talent to get Hainan's favor.

But now, this team member seems to be a part of their Xiangbei team in the future.

"Hey, it's just a slam dunk, it's nothing special." Yingmu Huadao didn't let up when he heard Budao say that, folded his hands on his chest, curled his lips and said with some disdain.

Although Sakuragi has been playing basketball for several months, he doesn't know what it means for a 170cm middle school student to dunk.

To put it simply, I still haven't seen enough of Yingmu Huadao, and my understanding is still too shallow.

If Sakuragi saw many students, he would know how terrifying Kiyota Nobunaga's bounce was.Not to mention junior high school students, even adults, it is not an easy thing to do this kind of thing. Behind the slam dunk, there are often years of training, and this does not mean that as long as you practice, you can slam dunk , in the end, it depends on talent.

Talent, talent, is worthless if you talk too much, but the core thing of a player is often the thing that is talked about the most.

Nobunaga Sakuragi's dismissive words were heard by the sharp-eared Nobunaga Kiyota, but in front of Coach Anzai who met for the first time, Nobunaga Kiyota restrained his urge to rush over to teach Sakuragi a lesson, but his mouth did not show any weakness mean:
"Hmph! Some people are not afraid of the wind flashing their tongues!"

"Not all cats and dogs can slam dunk. At my age, I may not be able to find one out of thousands of junior high school students!"

"My lord, you are a genius, a mortal, there is no way to comprehend the feeling of being in the air!"

Nobunaga Kiyota looked at Hanamichi Sakuragi, and fought back loudly. His words were clearly addressed to Hanamichi Sakuragi, but Hisashi Mitsui, who was standing aside, was hit by a critical blow, with a distressed look on his face.

"Hmph! Isn't it just a slam dunk!"

"I don't know where the ignorant wild monkey came from. I don't know what to be proud of!"

Yingmu Huadao frowned, and walked out of Budou angrily. Yohei wanted to pull the angry Sakuragi, thinking that Sakuragi was rushing to fight, but was stopped by Jinguji Budao at the side.

"Let's see, let these two people communicate with each other." Wu Dao said with a smile.At this time, Sakuragi Flower Road walked to Kiyota Nobunaga's side, glanced at him, and walked directly towards the stadium without stopping.

"Crack!" At this time, a player on the field just missed a shot and was about to pick up the ball when he saw Hanamichi Sakuragi walking into the field and grabbing the ball in his arms.

Immediately, he walked to the basket, and Sakuragi Hanamichi did not see any preparations. He grabbed the ball with both hands, pulled it up directly, and poured the ball into the basket.Sakuragi Hanamichi fell back to the ground after dunking, grabbed the basketball with one hand, and let out a sneer.

"hoho~"

"This red-haired kid is very interesting!"

Kiyota Ryumasa who was standing next to Coach Anzai's eyes lit up when he saw this scene, and said with some surprise.

When Nobunaga Kiyota heard his grandfather praise others, he immediately got up in a victorious mood, and then walked into the court with steps that his relatives did not recognize, snatched the ball from Hanamichi Sakuragi's hand, and said angrily:
"Red-haired monkey, are you going to compete with this genius?"

"Hahahaha!!! Competition? You don't need a competition to know that this genius was recruited by Xiangbei because of his strength, which is different from someone with a relationship like you!" Yingmu Huadao sneered when he heard this, and put his hands on his hips Hahaha laughed.

"How can a guy like you be stronger than me?"

"Does my uncle still need to rely on relationships? It was Coach Anxi who recognized my talent and recruited me."

"My talent is visible to the naked eye. I'm a genius! Hahahaha!"

Kiyota Nobunaga was also full of confidence in himself, holding the ball with one hand and one hand on his hip, he laughed hahaha.

The laughter of the two lasted for a few seconds, they stopped laughing at the same time, looked at each other, and shouted in unison in the next second:

"Contest!"
