Chapter 2: A New Team
Coming to the basketball court, Mitsui threw his basketball to Haruko Akagi and said, "Take it." β
"Oh?" Haruko Akagi held the basketball in both hands and said, "Yes." β
"Come on, one-on-one, start the offense from outside the three-point line, whoever goes first by ten shots wins, you come first." Mitsui said.
"Good!" Akagi understood Mitsui's strength, standing outside the three-point line and slapping the ball, his face became solemn, and he found that Mitsui's defense was simply invulnerable, and he always felt as if he would be broken no matter where he dribbled.
"What's wrong? You're welcome, just come! Mitsui smiled confidently.
"Damn, don't underestimate me!" Akagi was a little annoyed, and immediately rushed towards Mitsui's left side with the ball, and the next moment, Akagi rushed over with his huge and strong body, but the person rushed over, but the ball was gone.
"It's a lot of strength." Mitsui took the ball in his hand, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "It's a pity that the dribbling ability is not good, and it is no wonder that it is difficult for you to attack outside the three-point line." β
"Damn!" Although he knew that there was a big gap in their strength, Akagi would never have thought that the gap was so big, and he didn't even have the ability to dribble.
"Forget it." Mitsui threw the ball to Akagi and said, "You better use your strongest attack!" How do you attack? β
Holding the basketball, Akagi was silent for a moment and said, "Attack under the basket." β
"Do you attack under the basket......" Mitsui nodded: "Yes, let me see your offensive ability under the basket." β
"Okay." Akagi stood outside the penalty area line with a basketball, and Mitsui also opened his hands and made a defensive stance.
The next moment. Akagi immediately turned his back and used the kung fu of back fighting, Mitsui immediately pasted it, to be honest, Mitsui's body is still very good, and his height has now reached one meter seven or eight, and now Japan is still in the early nineties, walking on the street, there are men in one meter six and women in one meter and five meters everywhere, with Mitsui's height. It's already standing out from the crowd. But compared to Akagi, who is 1.93 meters tall, it's still a lot worse, and Akagi's strength is really enough.
The next moment, I saw Akagi sitting with his ass. Mitsui suddenly felt a overwhelming force. It made him hold his breath for a while. also took two steps back, and Akagi felt the loss of power behind him, and immediately turned around and raised the ball to shoot. Seeing that it was a basket playing the board, Akagi also showed a smile, and he was very excited: I'm going to score under Mitsui's defense!
But the next moment, a shadow enveloped Akagi's body, and a large hand appeared and slapped the basketball that had flown out of his hand.
"What!?" Akagi was horrified, he was so big, it was the first time he was stopped and blocked.
Haruko Akagi also exclaimed: "It's amazing! My brother was actually prevented! β
Mitsui rubbed his stomach and grinned: "The strength is good, the flexibility is also good, but the technique is not enough, if you just play with height and strength, you will never be able to become a good center." β
Akagi was silent.
Mitsui took a breath and said to Haruko Akagi, "Sister Haruko, give me the basketball." β
"Oh? Good. Haruko Akagi hurriedly passed the basketball, Mitsui received the ball, and said: "Although my center skills are not too good, they are barely enough, and then I will use the center's basket skills to attack, and you will defend." β
"Good!" Akagi is a never-say-die man, and his strength is the defense in the penalty area, that kind of oppression, he can already be the main center of a high school team, which is also Akagi's self-confidence.
Mitsui stood outside the penalty area, holding the ball head-on, and then raised the ball high and shot with a gesture, Akagi didn't dare to be careless, and immediately raised a hand to cover Mitsui's head, but then Mitsui immediately collected the ball and broke through, Akagi hurriedly slid his footsteps and followed Mitsui closely.
The next moment, Mitsui immediately held his foot, turned his back and turned around Akagi's side like a small spinning top, directly shaking off Akagi's center of gravity, and then opened his hand to shoot.
"Don't think!" At the critical moment, Akagi retracted his center of gravity in time, and he was about to block the jump, but the next moment, Mitsui showed a smile and turned around like a top again, at this time Akagi had completely lost his position, Mitsui played the board under the basket very easily, and with a brush, the ball easily went straight into the basket.
"What!?" Looking at Mitsui, who was at ease, Akagi's heart was full of horror, and Haruko Akagi on the sidelines also covered her mouth with her hands, unable to believe that her brother was defeated so easily.
Mitsui held the ball and smiled slightly: "As a center, your defensive ability is enough for the time being, but your offensive ability is still a lot worse, especially your steps under the basket, which is basically zero, you only have an offensive ability to play under the basket now, if you encounter a height and strength similar to you, you only need to push you outside the penalty area, it will be difficult for you to score, so the first thing you need to improve now is the singles ability under the basket, and the footsteps under the basket are the easiest way to shake off the defender to score, do you want to learn?" β
Akagi looked at Mitsui and nodded heavily: "Please leave me with the footsteps just now, please." β
"No need to do this, I also want to have a good teammate, your height is indeed very good, it is already very good in the high school basketball world, and you still have two years of growth time, the future will definitely grow higher, in the Japanese high school basketball world, your physical condition is already quite good, and you also have a certain defensive ability, and then as long as you gradually strengthen the defense, and then strengthen the offensive training, our first year of high school has the hope of reaching the national competition, and in the second year of high school, if a few better freshmen join, we have the hope of reaching the national semi-finals, and by the third year......"
A gleam flashed in Mitsui's eyes: "It's the best time for us to hit the national championship!" β
A surging passion suddenly surged in Akagi's heart, and he stretched out his fist: "Dominate the country!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Ten days before school starts, Mitsui spent every day on the basketball court instructing Akagi's offensive skills under the basket, shooting from outside the box in addition to his steps under the basket.
Mitsui's footwork skills can only be regarded as good, but his shooting skills are at the level of gods, and Akagi is too strong because of his strength. In response to this, Lu Yunfeng also told Akagi to strengthen the training of physical flexibility in the future, not just blindly practice strength, otherwise once the opponent implements foul tactics, if Akagi's free throw is not high, it will only become a drag on the team.
"So, at least the stability of the free throw basket must be improved, and if the free throw shooting rate can reach 70%. Even if it's qualified. Mitsui said, "From now on, I will set aside an hour every day to do yoga training. It's good for your flexibility. β
"I see." After Mitsui's guidance for ten days, Akagi has absolute respect for Mitsui, and his relationship is also a teacher and friend, but there is one thing that makes Akagi very annoyed.
"Sister Haruko. You don't have a boyfriend yet, do you? How about me being your boyfriend? β
"Mitsui seniors. Don't do this. It's embarrassing. β
Looking at Mitsui, who was teasing his sister on the side of the court, Akagi noodles were like the bottom of a pot: "Bastard Mitsui! Don't beat my sister! β
It's another year of cherry blossoms, and Xiangbei High School has ushered in a group of new students. When Mitsui Shou and Akagi stood on the school notice board and saw the names of the new students' classes, Akagi said regretfully, "It seems that they can't be in the same class." β
"It's okay." Mitsui smiled slightly: "As long as you are in the same club, it's enough, let's sign up together!" β
"Okay." Akagi nodded and said, "Then I'll go to class first." β
"Go ahead!"
When Mitsui walked to his class, he found a place in the back row very casually, and with his height, he could only sit in the back row, otherwise he would block people.
"Mitsui." As soon as he sat down for a while, three relatively tall male classmates came over, and the one who took the lead was combing his head of the plane, black and fierce, he didn't look like a good person, but he smiled at Mitsui: "Great, we are in the same class." β
"Digging fields?" Seeing this person, Mitsui knew who these three people were, it was the flame man Mitsui Shou's support group members, those three bad boys, but in the original book, only Tokuo Tsukata was given a name by Inoue Yuhiko, and the other two became absolute tricks, and they didn't even have a name, which was very miserable.
However, after inheriting Mitsui Shou's memory, Lu Yunfeng knew their names, but he still didn't say it, anyway, it was a trick.
Mitsui smiled: "You're still the same, you don't still want to collect protection money at school!" β
"Haha, who made me Lao Tzu a black ~ society! As the future heir, I'm now in my internship, so look at it! In the next three years, the entire Xiangbei High School will become my territory for Detian. β
That's right,This digging field Tokunan's father is a member of the black ~ society,And a small leader,In Japan,The black ~ society is a very common group,Although they often cut people and grab land,Loan sharksγElite casinosγSex ~ love places or something,But they don't bully ordinary people lightly,Otherwise, the police won't let them go.,This is also a characteristic of Japan.γ
"Don't go too far, after all, there are judo clubs, boxing clubs, karate clubs, and basketball clubs in the school that you can't afford to mess with, and it's three years of high school, what's the point of just bullying people?" Mitsui looked at Tokuo and said, "You are very suitable for playing basketball in terms of body and height, why don't you join the basketball club with me!" You know, basketball is good, but it's very popular with girls, don't you want to enjoy the girls cheering you on the court? β
"Well, that sounds good." Tokuo touched his chin and said, "But my skills are much worse than yours, I'm afraid that when I get to the court, all the limelight will be stolen by you." β
Mitsui smiled: "Basketball is a five-person sport, the limelight will never be stolen by one person, as long as you are good enough on the court, you will also be liked by the girls." Dig the field, come on! Come and help me, in the next three years, I will definitely lead the Xiangbei basketball team to dominate the country! Don't you want to create the history of Xiangbei basketball with me? β
"Create zΓ o history? It seems to be very interesting. Tokuo touched his chin and finally showed a smile: "Okay, since Mitsui is so confident, I'll do it with you!" β
"Brother Ditian, what about us?" Two of his men asked, "Are we going to join the basketball club too?" β
"You ......"
"You'd better forget it." Mitsui shook his head: "You don't have the talent to play, especially if you ......" Mitsui pointed to the ugly man with glasses and said, "It's better to be short-sighted." β
The myopic eye touched the back of his head: "Forget it, I don't have much interest in basketball anyway." β
"Me too." Another attendant smiled: "Let's be a cheerleader for Brother Mitsui and Brother Ditian." β
Tokuo Higata laughed, "That's a good idea. Okay, you will be our cheerleaders in the future, Mitsui plays passionately on the court, like a raging flame, and Mitsui's nickname will be Flame Man in the future, and I ...... Well, just call me a beast, and in the future, the combination of the flame man and the beast will definitely be able to sweep Kanagawa and dominate the country. Hahaha! β
In the midst of Tokuo's wild laughter. Mitsui showed a black line on his face, he didn't expect that his title of the flame man was actually given by Tokuo Digada, and when he thought of playing on the court in the future, there was a group of male men in the stands shouting at the top of their voices: "Flame man Mitsui Shou." The beast digs Tokuo. Dominate the country! β
It was a beautiful scene. I don't dare to look at it!
The day's classes ended quickly, and after the last class, Lu Yunfeng immediately went to the basketball club with Tokuo Tsukata. I handed over the completed application to the captain of the basketball club, the captain of the basketball club obviously knew Mitsui, and when I saw Mitsui, I was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Mitsui! MVP of junior high school in the prefecture! You actually came to our Xiangbei? β
"What! Mitsui is coming? β
When the news spread in the basketball club, all the players of the basketball club were very excited to come around, the Xiangbei basketball team has always been a super bad team in the county, basically a round of tours or two rounds, never entered the top 16 in the county, is such a bad team, it actually attracted Mitsui Shou, the MVP of Kanagawa Prefecture's junior high school? It's just incredible.
Seeing Mitsui surrounded by the inner and outer three layers in the middle, Tokuo Higata called an envy, of course, as an old friend for many years, although a little jealous, but there will be no feeling of hatred, after all, this is Mitsui's own efforts, every year there are many players who play basketball well, but there is only one MVP every year, and last year's MVP is Mitsui Shou.
"Yo! Akagi, it's finally here. Just when Mitsui was being enthusiastically watched, a tall figure walked in, the target was too eye-catching, Mitsui saw it at a glance, and immediately raised his hand to say hello.
"Wow! So tall! With Mitsui Shou's greeting, everyone saw this giant who was more than 1.9 meters tall, and suddenly Mitsui's limelight was robbed, at least half of the people surrounded him, and the captain of the basketball team was no exception, no way, the Xiangbei basketball team has never had a player more than 1.9 meters, and Akagi is still a freshman, and he has a height of 1.93 meters, this scarce resource is definitely the wealth of the Xiangbei basketball team.
"Damn, isn't it just bigger! What's the big deal. "For people other than Mitsui, there is nothing polite to Tokuo Tsukata, and now Tokuo Kugata also has a height of one meter eight, but judging from the original book, after the third grade, his height is the same as Mitsui, one meter eight or four...... Well, at least in Japan's high school basketball world, being a power forward is more than enough, and Horita's strength is very good, although it is not as good as Sakuragi Hanamichi, but it is much stronger than Tsunoda.
The big forward, with enough strength, can carry people and top people, if there is a hand-to-hand throwing kung fu, it will be quite good.
Horita has exactly that kind of conditions and potential.
Mitsui patted Horita on the shoulder and said: "Akagi is a rare center talent, and it is very likely to grow into the first center in the prefecture in the future, or even the first center in the country, this kind of talent you can't envy, fortunately, Akagi is the center, and your position is a power forward, I will slowly train you in the future, this year's goal is to enter the national competition, without your strength, it is difficult for us to do it, so, Horita, come on!" β
Hearing Mitsui's expectations of himself, Horita had a hint of pride and pressure in his eyes, and nodded: "Don't worry, Mitsui, I will definitely help you enter the national competition, and within three years, we must dominate the country." β
"That's my goal, too!" Akagi is very sensitive to the four words 'dominating the whole country', even if he is far away, he heard Horita's words, and immediately walked over and stretched out his hand: "Hello, I'm Akagi Goken, a friend of Mitsui. β
When he really faced Akagi, Horita felt a huge sense of oppression, and couldn't help but feel a little more afraid, so he quickly shook hands and said, "I'm Tokuo Horita, a friend of Mitsui for many years, and a member of the basketball team. β
Akagi looked at Horita's figure, a smile appeared on his face, and nodded: "Very good, I think the position of power forward is very suitable for you." β
Mitsui said the same. Horita was a little proud again.
"Oh?" Akagi turned his head to look at Mitsui and said with a smile: "Mitsui, I believe more and more that we can really dominate the country in three years. β
"What? Have you never believed it before! Mitsui smiled: "As long as I have my super genius Mitsui Shou, dominating the country is not easy to capture." β
"It's still as arrogant as ever." Akagi has a black line on his face, but he can't refute it, because Mitsui is really a super genius, in the past ten days, he has completely understood, although Akagi is confident that in the past ten days, his skills have made great progress, but compared with Mitsui, he is still like a child and an adult, not a level at all.
"If I don't have this self-confidence, how can I lead the Xiangbei basketball team to dominate the country?" Mitsui smiled slightly and said, "Akagi, Horita, let's work together!" In the future, you will dominate the basket, and I will be responsible for shooting from the outside, and no team can stop us. β
Akagi Gangxian and Horita Tokuo listened to the blood boiling, and beat their chests hard: "Dominate the basket, and leave it to us!" (To be continued......)
