Chapter 7: Devil's Training

A week has passed in the blink of an eye, and Sakuragi is still doing rehabilitation every day, while galloping on the court in his dreams, and from time to time he talks about the training camp of Kanagawa United. And what about the people who are training in Lingnan? "I suspect we're not going to get out of here alive." At the end of the day's training, most of the players went back to rest, and there were only three unlucky people left in the stadium.

"Don't be so pessimistic, don't you see that those players in Lingnan are all good?" Wiping the floor together, Ah Shen comforted the flower shape. Before I came, I was worried that the training camp would delay my training plan, but now it seems that ~ compared with my own, it is definitely more than that.

"I didn't expect Tianoka to be so strict, no wonder Lingnan played an overtime with you when he was in the county competition, and the next day Xiangbei was able to fight to the last second.........." Hanagata sighed while looking at Rukawa Kaede who was silently wiping the floor next to him.

Rukawa Kaede looked at the two of them and didn't say anything, he didn't have the strength to speak now. When mopping the floor every day, Rukawa Kaede always thinks that he can't be so desperate when he talks about the competition tomorrow. But Rukawa Kaede is like a cold bird, as soon as he gets on the court and sees Xiandao, he doesn't remember yesterday's decision. worked hard, "lingering" with the fairy road at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and then in the fifty turnaround runs after the race, he won the bottom three to wipe the ground.

In addition to the basic exercises such as passing ~ dribbling ~ running basketball, there is also a high-intensity confrontation game in the morning and afternoon, and of course, the big meal is naturally the switchback run after the end of the game in the afternoon. It's like if you eat with a round belly and then bring a roast duck and let you eat it with nothing left......... Cruel.

"This is too unfair, the three of us are so tall, how can we outrun those people........." Hanagata felt that her body, as if she was already seventy or eighty, stopped mopping the ground, straightened up and beat her little waist.

"It's good to get used to it, and it's a good grind. You see Fukuda ~ Sugahira ~ Sendo and Naito, there is nothing to do. I think this is the method that Mentoring Ooka used to train Uozumi in the first place. "Ah Shen is optimistic, but also because he has a sense of crisis. Since the Hainan basketball team left in the third grade last year, the strength of the inner line has been at a disadvantage in the county. However, because of Amu's strong existence, this disadvantage can be compensated, and it is not obvious. Now that Amu ~ Takasago ~ Muto have withdrawn, the strength of the inner line has been further weakened. As a big man, Ah Shen has strengthened his physical training since he returned from the national competition. Increasing the protection of the inner line is already a responsibility that Ah Shen can't escape.

"Speaking of which, Naito's physical strength is really amazing, and when I see him, I think of Sakuragi. Rukawa Kaede ~ Sakuragi didn't come for anything, is Coach Anzai doing special training for him? "Another purpose for Hanagata to come here is to gather information at Fujima's behest. From the current point of view, Miyagi and Rukawa Kaede have made great progress, and if Sakuragi and Mitsui have the same progress, then Xiangbei will inevitably be the biggest opponent of Xiangyang Winter Trials.

"Sakuragi, he's injured and he's in the hospital." Ah Shen looked at Rukawa Kaede's tired appearance and answered Hanagaku in his place. Unlike Rukawa Kaede's opponent of Immortal Dao, Ah Shen has almost no natural enemies here, so his remaining physical strength is more abundant than Rukawa Kaede.

"Sakuragi will get hurt?" Hanagata seems to have heard a fantasy and thinks it's incredible. After the Xiangyang basketball team was eliminated, and the third-grade group decided to stay for the winter trials, they began to practice hard in a closed way, and paid little attention to the national competition.

"They beat the Sanwang Gonggao, even now I think it's very incredible, and we in Hainan are only less than 30% sure, and they are the first time to enter the national competition." Ah Shen said while looking at Rukawa Kaede, who was exhausted~ wiping the floor. "Their luck is really bad enough, and they have met two strong teams in a row, King of the Mountain and Aihe......"

"Xiangbei is really a very good basketball team, and they have done what many teams have wanted to do for several years~ but have not been able to do it." Flower Shape has participated in the national competition on behalf of the Xiangyang team, so he naturally understands what Ah Shen said, and sighs from the bottom of his heart~ It does not contain any flattery.

Rukawa Kaede silently finished the cleaning work and left the basketball hall staggeringly. He didn't say anything, but he kept repeating one sentence in his heart----------- I'm the number one in Japan, and I'm going to the United States."

High schools in Japan have a three-semester system, which means that there are three semesters in a year with three vacations. The day after tomorrow is the day of the start of the second semester, and the atmosphere of the training team is dull ~ lively. Everyone seemed to be extra excited, because tomorrow they would be free, and they would no longer have to endure the torture of Taoka.

In Miyagi's words, the purpose of Taoka's training camp this time was to let them come to Lingnan as a sparring partner. Two abuses a day~ Whether it is abused or abused, it is obviously a little unbearable. However, everyone has personally experienced that they have made some progress to a greater or lesser extent.

The last day of training is only half a day, and after the morning, the members of the other schools will leave and gather together when the Autumn Stadium is held. Xiandao let out a long breath, he can finally go fishing, this summer is extremely nerve-wracking for him~ Because the opponent is Rukawa Kaede, you don't have to turn your head to look~ Xiandao already felt that Rukawa Kaede was "discharging" himself.........

Naito Tetsuya chatted with Hanagaru ~ Ah Shen, different from the rustiness when he first came, and now he has completely integrated into everyone's atmosphere. Except for the taciturn Rukawa Kaede, Naito found that these "celebrities" in the prefecture were quite easy to get along with. Before I came, I was obviously worried that I was thinking too much, and as the ~most vegetable~ and most unknown person among the team members who were called, Naito came here with great psychological pressure.

The substitutes in Xiangbei and the substitutes in Lingnan got together and chatted non-stop, and everyone blew up each other for a summer, and they have already become friends who talk about everything. Satoru Tsunoda, a strong inside lineman, seems to have become a star player in their group of rookies, and is talking in the crowd.

Rukawa Kaede looked at the back of the immortal road, and his eyes were extremely sharp. This summer is definitely a pretty good summer for him, with the opponent of Sendo as a sparring partner, plus the training of the Taoka devil, Rukawa Kaede's improvement is quite large. After surviving the tipping point of exhaustion, Rukawa Kaede felt more and more comfortable on the court. Although he has always paid attention to his own physical training, he can't cut his own handle with his own knife, just like it is impossible for a person to strangle himself, and this kind of devilish training that is similar to self-harm cannot be done by a person.

Taoka's passionate "closing speech" made everyone even more excited, this is the acquittal, and the last confrontation before the end of the speech and the closing of the camp has also begun.

"Make a break with me today, you've been hiding for a summer, are you scared?" The blazing Rukawa Kaede challenged the straight hair that smiled very poorly.

Xiandao didn't speak, but smiled even more. After fighting with Rukawa Kaede for a summer, Xiandao felt more and more ~ He and the Japanese No. 1 who remembered the wrong name were really gradually overlapping in front of his eyes.

"Wait!" As kick-off was about to take off, Shigeichi Taoka called a timeout. "Naito, you come to Lingnan, and Tsunoda, you replace Naito as the big forward of the United team." In the final match, Taoka hopes that the strength of the two sides will be as balanced as possible.

The adjusted lineup is as follows: Ryonan center Tetsuya Naito, power forward Yoshiaki Fukuda, small forward Akira Sendo, scoring guard Hiroaki Namitsu, and point guard Tomoyuki Uekusa. On the side of the team, the center is Toru Hanagata, the power forward Satoru Tsunoda, the small forward and scoring guard are Kaede Rukawa and Ajin, and the point guard is Ryota Miyagi.
