This is the end of the draft, as for the third pick, the fourth pick,,,,, will definitely appear one after another, the most crazy at the moment is Sakuragi, Sakuragi was selected in a peculiar way, and the team that selected him was in the draft, Kobe Jaguar, who won the champion!

"You, you, did you pick up the wrong business card?" Sakuragi couldn't believe it.

"That's right, isn't the photo me," explains General Manager Kawaguchi.

"It's not so easy to cheat today's genius, quick, tell me which team you are, is it the Tokyo Egg Team? Or the Osaka Teppanyaki Team? ,,," Sakuragi still can't believe it.

"What a mess of balls, teppanyaki, are you faint from hunger, Sakuragi?" Kawaguchi questioned.

"Are you really Team Jaguar!" Sakuragi didn't want to believe it.

"Yes, it's true, I have other things, go first, oh yes! Tomorrow there will be a press conference for you, you are ready to prepare, the specific time and place will be notified to you, keep the phone open. Kawaguchi turned and left. Kobe Jaguar! Sakuragi gritted his teeth and said.

Apparently Sakuragi didn't have the good mood to be drafted by the team, because Sakuragi was not sluggish in this matter, and the team that selected him was the team that picked Kaede Rukawa in the draft.

Sakuragi, who walked out of the gymnasium, looked like he had lost the election.

At night in Tokyo, the sky is clear, the breeze blows through the streets, and Sakuragi walks alone on the streets, showing a rare tiredness and feeling very tired.

Sakuragi heard the cyclist's horn, raised his head slowly, and vaguely saw that there was still a poster promoting the draft on the street lamp in front of him, which was painted with the "champion" Rukawa Kaede.

"The hateful Rukawa Kaede, steal my limelight every time." Sakuragi can't wait for Rukawa Kaede to appear in front of him now and beat him hard!

"Rukawa Kaede is so handsome."

"yes, yes, and I've heard that the fight is pretty good!"

"I'll watch Jaguar races from now on!"

"Yes! It's better to go to the site! ”

"Okay, hahahaha!"

"Look at your nymphomaniac."

The two girls who passed by Sakuragi talked while walking, and Sakuragi listened like a knife!

Indeed, if Kaede Rukawa in high school was only famous in Kanagawa Prefecture, then Kaede Rukawa is almost a household name now! is not only outstanding in ball skills, but also in that handsome appearance, which fascinates the hearts of countless girls.

He competed in the Japanese University Basketball League during his freshman year, and he was even more invincible! Although he only played a measly 5 games, he averaged 33 per game. 2 points, 6. 5 rebounds 5. 2 assists, this statistic is extremely terrifying for a college student, and it immediately shows a dominant performance! Compared to Rukawa Kaede in high school, it has improved in all aspects!

In fact, after finishing his first year of high school, Rukawa Kaede desperately wanted to go to the United States for further study, but many people, including Coach Anzai, strongly opposed it, and Rukawa Kaede's heart to go to the United States was also shaken. And Xiangbei, which lost the two main forces of Akagi and Mitsui, failed to retain Rukawa Kaede in the end.

Rukawa Kaede left Xiangbei and Japan, and his next stop was South Korea.

It turns out that Rukawa Kaede's mother is Korean, and his father is Japanese, just during Rukawa Kaede's childhood, his parents chose to divorce due to various discords, ending this transnational relationship, Rukawa Kaede was raised by his grandmother when he was a child, until his parents divorced, because Rukawa Kaede has always been a Japanese nationality, so he followed his father to settle in Japan after elementary school, until the first year of high school, and his grandmother's sudden illness made Rukawa Kaede feel the need to stay with his grandmother.

In South Korea, Rukawa Kaede did not waste his talent, three practices a day has long become commonplace, the Korean Basketball Association once wanted to persuade Rukawa Kaede to change his nationality and play for South Korea, but Rukawa Kaede has always had a knot, that is, to return to Japan, compete with Xiandao Zhang, and cross this mountain that has blocked Rukawa Kaede for many years!

As her grandmother's condition improved, Rukawa Kaede realized that it was time.

Sakuragi, who stayed in the hotel over there, tossed and turned, looking back on all the things that had happened throughout the day, and for Sakuragi, the first day he had just returned to Japan, he had a lot of thoughts.

"Tick, tick......" Sakuragi's phone suddenly remembered.

"Mr. Sakuragi, tomorrow's press conference will be held at 10 a.m. in Room 1017, Block A, Ginza Hotel. Please be sure to be on time. ”

"I was stumped by a press conference today! It's ridiculous," Sakuragi said with a wry smile.

Sakuragi has an indescribable feeling in his heart, eager to participate in the press conference and officially announce the return of the genius! But when I thought of being suppressed by Rukawa Kaede in the draft, I felt shameless to face Haruko!

It may also be because he was tired for a day, and Sakuragi, who didn't even take off his clothes, fell asleep while lying on the bed with the word "big,,,,,

The successive doorbells of "Ding-dong, Ding-dong, Ding-dong,,,,,," became Sakuragi's alarm clock, and Sakuragi staggered out of bed and opened the door.

"It seems that I didn't come in vain!" Mr. Kawaguchi, the general manager who knows Sakuragi's nature well, is the "sound source" of this alarm clock.

"Knocked on the wrong door,,," Sakuragi said before closing the door.

"Wake up, you won't forget me!" Kawaguchi looked a little helpless.

"Forgot!" Sakuragi replied rather cheerfully.

Hearing Sakuragi's words, Kawaguchi almost fell.

"I'm Kawaguchi! Press conference, starting at 10 o'clock! Kawaguchi said bitterly.

"Launch?" Sakuragi seemed to be drunk and didn't remember anything.

"Jaguar!" Kawaguchi whispered, afraid that others would hear him.

"Ahh Sakuragi's eyes widened suddenly, as if he had found a clue to solve the case.

"What time is it?" Sakuragi asked.

"It's enough time, it's only half past seven, and you remember?" After Kawaguchi finished speaking, he finally walked into Sakuragi's door.

"How could this genius's memory forget even this little thing!" Sakuragi is up on a tsundere.

"Then get ready, the car is waiting downstairs!" Kawaguchi breathed a sigh of relief.

The fact that the head general manager of a team, who is only one level younger than the team owner, would wake up a rookie is enough to see that Jaguar values the jade of Sakuragi Hanamichi.

It was 9:30 a.m., half an hour before the press conference began.

Rukawa Kaede in the background sat quietly on the big sofa, listening to the music leisurely with his eyes closed, and Sakuragi next door was not so leisurely.

The thought of being about to appear in front of everyone, especially Haruko, who is also very likely to be on the scene, and the possibility that his limelight will be overshadowed by Rukawa Kaede again, all of which make Sakuragi restless.

Although it was just a meeting for the team to introduce new signings, dozens of media came, and even the steps on both sides were full of late media, in their words: "That's the champion of the century!" Who wants to miss it! “

"I heard that today Jaguar will also introduce a mysterious overseas signing player......"

"There's Rukawa Kaede here, who would pay attention to that kind of guy!"

"That's right, I once watched Rukawa Kaede's college competition, and it's like a pervert!"

"I can't wait to see Kaede Rukawa in a Jaguar jersey!"

Several reporters have already started to talk about it.

"Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the Jaguar team new signing meeting has officially begun! First of all, I would like to invite the general manager of the Jaguar team: Mr. Kawaguchi! ”

Mr. Kawaguchi still walked to the stage very gentlemanly.

"Next, please invite our new champion, a new member of the Jaguar team - Rukawa Kaede!"

When the host shouted the three words Rukawa Kaede, the reporters in the audience leaned over and prepared as if they were preparing to run 100 meters.

The moment Rukawa Kaede came out of the side door, the entire conference room was enveloped in the sound of cameras crackling.

It hurts people's eyes, and this kind of photo rain has been raining for half a minute!

Some reporters can't hold back anymore and have begun to raise their hands to ask questions!

"Wait a minute, everyone! Wait a minute! There is also a new recruit who did not play, don't be impatient! ”

But who can pay attention to what the host said at this time!

The restless scene of "this ,,,," made the host very embarrassed!

At this moment, a tall figure suddenly jumped out of the side door! Two big strides jumped to the front of the stage, and one of them took out the host's microphone with his left hand, and the whole set of actions was done in one go, jumping onto the table suddenly, holding the microphone and shouting~~~

"I'm Sakuragi! To defeat you Rukawa Kaede and become the champion of the champions~~~~! “

A huge sound resounded throughout the conference room, and the room that was boiling a few seconds ago was silent!

Yes, only Sakuragi dared to do this, and this time, Sakuragi did completely steal the limelight from Rukawa Kaede!

"This idiot!" Rukawa Kaede didn't even raise his head.

In this way, Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede, two sworn enemies, met on a narrow road.
