Listening to Suzuki's novel witticism, the whole team burst into laughter, and even Aoki himself giggled.

Suzuki reminded: "I heard you all talk about Xiangyang, Lingnan or something just now, so have you seen the information of our play-off opponent, the King of the Mountains?" ”

Taiga stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, sir. We haven't seen the content of the Mountain King yet. ”

Suzuki said, "So what are you waiting for? ”

Sanno's rating is still A, and it hasn't been lowered by their defeat in the Akita Prefecture tournament.

The reporter who wrote the introduction of the king of the mountain obviously understood the trickiness of this, and he did not explicitly say that the king of the mountain intended to lose, but wrote: No matter what the reason, from the seeded team that can have a bye in the first round to the reserve team that needs to play one more play-off, the king of the mountain has no way out, and whether he can continue the glory of last year depends on how long the twin brothers can maintain their good form.

Suzuki asked, "Lingnan is rated as A-grade, do you think we can beat them once if we fight again?" ”

Taiga affirmed: "Of course you can!" After two months of devil training, everyone's strength has improved to a great extent, and I am eighty percent sure! ”

Suzuki smiled and said, "So the Mountain King is also a team in the A-class, do you have the confidence to win them?" ”

"Absolutely!" This time, the whole team roared together.

"Good!" Suzuki waved his fist and shouted: "Although we are relying on the advantage of small points, squeezing down Hainan, and barely qualifying for the new army with the third place in Kanagawa, although we are only a weak team that is rated as a C grade, no one is optimistic that we can win the mountain king of A grade, no one!" However, we must have confidence in ourselves, believe in our own strength, believe in our efforts, believe in our will, believe that we can create miracles, believe that we can pick the king of the mountain and enter the main competition of the national competition! There are seven days of the national competition, and I don't want to be a spectator during these seven days, watching other teams fight on the field, watching the whole country and cheering for others, not us! What about you? ”

Once again, the whole team shouted in unison: "We don't want to either!" ”

Suzuki clapped his hands, said hello, and then said, "Remember what you said now, and then, go to Tokyo to make it happen!" Now, all of them, disbanded and went home. Pack up our things and let's meet at the school gate at 9 a.m. tomorrow morning and head off to Tokyo! ”

At present, there are 1 supervisor, 12 regular players, 1 manager, and 2 sparring partners, a total of 16 people.

With so many people, it is definitely not cost-effective to buy train tickets one by one, so the school has prepared a bus for this purpose to send the whole team to Tokyo.

There were extra seats on the bus, so Suzuki brought Sakuragi and Matsuoka with him, and there were two more people, which was a matter of opening an extra room. The money for the World Cup betting has arrived, and Suzuki is now rich, and a little money is nothing.

Hearing that the basketball team's car could bring more people, fan groups in Xiangbei also came to the door, hoping to save a sum of money.

Suzuki threw the matter to Taiga and asked him to pick a few hardcore supporters to bring with him.

Dahe usually kills decisively on the court, but in daily life he is a little indecisive, choosing to choose, and finally stuffed all the 48-seat medium-sized buses, even on the aisle, and finally Suzuki pulled down his face to be a bad guy, persuaded a few, and ensured the safety of the people on the car.

Most of these extra people are snakes with snake paths and rat paths, and there is no need for Suzuki to worry about accommodation. There were only a few, and Suzuki thought about it, and arranged the two Taiga's support groups—both of the girl's family—into Momoi's room, and then let the inn open an extra room, and stuffed the remaining four into it.

Leading the team to go out, food, clothing, housing and transportation, every thing needs Suzuki to worry about.

The prefecture of the island country is equivalent to the province of the rabbit's family, but because of the developed transportation, Suzuki led the team to run around in the county competition, but there was no feeling of going far away.

But this time when I came to Tokyo, I was completely away from the base camp, and many trivial things made Suzuki take care of one or the other.

Fortunately, Momoi is a careful and capable manager, picking up the missing and filling the gaps on the side, although it is also the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, the two of them worked together, in a hurry, and finally pushed the planned itinerary down one by one, and did not let this rustiness affect the state of the team.

Kanagawa is just on the edge of Tokyo, and it's less than two hours by car, but Shohoku has a race on the first day, so I arrived in Tokyo one night earlier, on July 31.

At this time, more than half of all 61 teams have already arrived, and the rest will basically be available before the opening ceremony at noon tomorrow.

Like the remaining two teams in Kanagawa, Shoyang and Lingnan, both arrive tomorrow morning. Their city is closer to Tokyo than Fujisawa, and they come and go like a door, so many of the players on the team are from Tokyo.

Like Atsushi Shihara and Shogo Ashizaki in Shoyo, Tetsuya Kuroko and Kosuke Wakamatsu in Lingnan, they are all in junior high school in Tokyo, and when they go to Tokyo, they are really going home.

The arrival of Xiangbei, although it was dark, this large group of people still attracted the attention of many teams.

Before I moved in, there were already many people from the team who came forward to ask, and there were two representatives from the south and the north, Iwashimizu from Hokkaido and Osumi from Kagoshima, who said that they wanted to play a training match with Xiangbei.

Suzuki, citing the fact that there was a game tomorrow, declined the challenge from the two teams. The representatives of the two teams were simply rejected, and after being rejected, they no longer entangled.

There was a schedule of the national tournament in the basketball magazine, and Suzuki arranged everything, and after staying in his room, he opened the magazine and found the reason why Iwashimi and Osumi were the first to find the Xiangbei game.

These two teams are not seeded teams, and they have to start playing from the first round, and Osumi's opponent in the first round is the second place in Kanagawa Prefecture, Lingnan High School, and the second round opponent of Iwashimizu, who is the national overlord, Shoyang High School.

The format of the national competition, similar to that of the knockout stage of the county competition, is divided into four regions.

Xiangyang, as the top seed, was naturally placed in the first division.

Seeded teams are allocated by county. Akita Prefecture is second only to Kanagawa in points, and their seeded team this time was Yosen High School, which defeated Sanno Kogyo in the final game of the prefectural tournament, so Yosen was placed in the second division.

According to the principle of avoidance in the same county, it is impossible for Lingnan to be in the first division, this time it will also be divided into the second division, looking at the schedule, he will meet Yangquan in the third round - if Yangquan can fight in front of Lingnan.

The winner between Xiangbei and Sanwang will be added to the fourth division, and the seeded team in this division is the traditional powerhouse, which is affiliated with Fukuoka's Hakata Business University. Before the rise of Xiangyang, Hakata was the old rival of the mountain king in the national competition.

However, if the Mountain King or Xiangbei wants to come to Hakata, they will already be in the quarterfinals, and before that, they will have to go through several levels.

Suzuki slid his finger down the line on the chart.

The first level, called Kanayama Commercial, is a team from Niigata Prefecture.
