Bang bang bang bang...... Squeak squeak......

The sound of the basketball hitting the ground, mixed with the sound of the shoes rubbing against the floor, kept colliding in the arena.

The arena is plastered with posters all around, including the school's star players Fujima Kenji and Hanagata Toru, as well as senior stars of Shoyo High School such as Ryota Mikami and Ido Yu.

Of course, there is also the annual basketball league honors that almost cover half of the walls of the arena, as well as a huge banner slogan: Down with Hainan!

This is the basketball hall of Kanagawa Shoyo Public High School, and today is only the first day of training, but there are still many students who come to watch the game after school outside the stadium.

In the stadium, the seniors are playing, and in the corner of the field are more than a dozen first-year newcomers who have just joined the club.

After all, it is a famous basketball school in Kanagawa, and most of those who can apply for admission to the basketball department of Xiangyang High School already have a good basketball foundation when they are in junior high school.

Under the arrangement of the assistant coach, more than a dozen newcomers skillfully do basic training such as dribbling and passing, and a tall boy who is more than 1.9 meters tall stands out from the crowd of newcomers.

It's just that, not to mention the students who are watching the 'stars' outside the stadium with the doors and windows, even the assistant coaches who are training them for newcomers are mostly focused on the senior game at this time.

It was an intense intra-squad game.

Tsukasa Fujima led a group of second- and third-year substitute students against Toru Hanagata, Hasegawa, Nagano, Shoichi Takano and Takuto Ito, the absolute main force of the five Shoyo High School.

The score on the scoreboard and the sweat on everyone's body are all showing the fierceness of this intra-team game.

As Fujima Kenji shook off the defensive athlete Hasegawa, who was already close to the limit of his physical strength, a three-point shot from the ball fell into the net.

- Shhhh

The final whistle blew and the scoreboard was finally settled at 87-86.

"You can win like this, Senior Fujima is really amazing!"

"That Nosui senior in the second grade is also very powerful, he actually scored 25 points alone!"

"Didn't you notice that almost all of his 25 points came from assists from senior Fujima? That's the Fujima senior, feeding the ball so well! If this is a change of seniors, you will have to get 40 points for conservativeness! ”

"Long live Fujima-senpai! We must defeat Hainan this year! ”

The stands were filled with cheers and chatter.

Fujima Kenji pulled up Hasegawa, who was panting on the ground, and slapped him on the ass: "You have to continue to strengthen your physical training, don't let the relaxation of a long vacation defeat you, don't forget, our opponent is Hainan, which is known for its physical strength." ”

Hasegawa nodded with an apologetic look on his face, he followed his parents back to his hometown in Hokkaido this winter vacation, and he was indeed a little negligent in training, and then against an opponent like Fuji Zhen, it was inevitable that he would not be able to do it.

"Alright, it's almost time." Fujima Kenji looked at the wall clock on the wall, took the whistle handed by the assistant coach, and walked to the newcomer.

Hush! Hush!

He blew the whistle and gathered the newcomers who were training on the basics.

This is their first day of joining the company, and simple reprimands and incentives are naturally indispensable, but more importantly, it is necessary to make a future training plan for the newcomers, explain the rules and regulations of the team, and arrange the work of the newcomers.

In terms of training, as the head coach, Fujima Kenji is going to prepare for the summer league this year, so most of the time there is no time to manage the newcomers, so the assistant coach can only be in charge, and the first month is basically doing basic training such as dribbling, and then depending on the performance of each person to decide the next training step.

In terms of rules and regulations, it is not allowed to arrive late or leave early, or rules such as changing shoes to enter the course.

As for the work of the newcomers, the stadium has to be cleaned every day after closing, mopping the floor, wiping the ball, etc., and the twelve newcomers are divided into groups to take turns to be responsible.

These are all things that are up to him, the captain and manager, to account.

"Excuse me, excuse me."

The tall man who stood out from the crowd stood out and said with a smile in Japanese, which he was not yet proficient in, "The cleaning of the stadium is fine, but I would like to apply for individual training." ”

The sound of chirping in the arena suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at the newcomer in surprise.

As Xiangyang High School, which has a long history of basketball and seniority is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, these have long been unwritten default rules, and no one has ever dared to challenge them.

But this year, there was the first thorn.

"Hey, first-year boy, who do you think you dare to disobey Senior Fujima's arrangement?"

"Training alone? Do you think you're strong? ”

"This guy seems to have transferred from the Dragon Kingdom, I've seen it at the orientation party."

"What about the Dragon Kingdom? This year's newcomers are really guts! ”

After a brief period of silence, the third-year seniors scolded one after another, and there was a chatter and laughter on the side of the court.

The first-year freshman from the Dragon Kingdom was unmoved, just smiled and looked at Fujima, as if waiting for his answer.

Fuji Zhen pressed his hand slightly, and the chatter in the stadium suddenly became much quieter.

Although he was fighting in the game just now, he didn't fire all the time, but was always distracted to pay attention to the training of the newcomers.

The quality of this batch of newcomers is quite good, especially this tall boy who transferred from the Dragon Kingdom.

A tall man in his early nines, he is no less skilled in dribbling than those small guards, even if he can't see more in simple basic training for the time being, but it is enough to feel that he has a pretty good basketball foundation.

This guy just needs to be trained well, and he may have the opportunity to participate in the summer league with the team this year, and maybe he can also become a surprise soldier with Xiangyang.

It is normal for such people to be a little arrogant and unwilling to do boring basic training.

It's just that he obviously doesn't know the purpose of Xiangyang's basic training for newcomers.

These who can apply to enter the Xiangyang basketball club will not be novices in the real sense, and many of them are already the main force of their respective teams when they are in middle school, so this is not only to practice the basic skills of newcomers, but also to polish away the arrogance that they have achieved a little bit of achievement in middle school.

High school basketball and high school basketball are two completely different worlds, and it doesn't do them any good to hold that pride.

It doesn't matter if he transferred from the Dragon Kingdom or rose from the Japanese National School, it's the same.

"What's your name?"

Name?

The young man smiled.

I have two names.

One is from the past life and the other is from the present.

Perhaps it was a little memory of Fuji Zhen's words, and scenes flashed through his mind involuntarily.

——Defeated the United States in the final of the 2025 Basketball U17 World Championship, MVP of the championship, the king of the U18 Asian Youth Championship, the Most Valuable Player, and the quarterfinals of the U19 World Cup......

——When the captain of the national youth team visited the United States for practice, the Florida Puma, which defeated the old NCAA powerhouse, attracted the spotlight of domestic and foreign media with a large triple-double, and also received a handwritten invitation from Coach K of Duke University.

It was a myriad of training balls that he had worn bald, and it was full of honor and focused lights.

The future Jordan of the Dragon Country, who is under the prestige, and an invitation letter from the strongest coach on the planet, means a ticket to the highest halls of the NCAA and even the NBA......

That's when a kid who loves basketball is closest to his dream.

Unfortunately, a sudden malignant thymoma followed, which made him go through various radiotherapy and chemotherapy in bed for more than a year, tormenting him to the point of being skinny until the end of his life.

Crossing, rebirth.

This was the most common fantasy he had during the entire year of his treatment, when he read novels to pass the time.

I didn't expect that I was really reborn after death, but the geographical location was slightly off, and I came to Japan, and it seems that it is still the Japan in the Slam Dunk story.

Kanagawa Prefecture, Xiangyang, Hainan, Xiangbei...... When he first learned the names of these schools when he was first reborn, Lin Dong was really a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, it soon became clear that everything in this world seemed to be exactly the same as the real world, except for the names in these slam dunk plots.

And unlike the era background of Slam Dunk, it is the millennium, Japan in 2000.

The names in those comics are just a few names, they don't mean anything, at least now I can start playing again.

And he is still a native of Longguo, but because of his father's job transfer, he transferred to Japan this year to study in his first year of high school, and he will probably stay here for two or three years.

It has been more than a month since the rebirth of the crossing.

In this life, his name is ......

"My name is Lin Dong."

He said with a smile.

Fuji Zhen smiled slightly, and he heard a kind of arrogance in his bones from the other party's voice.

Such arrogance helps to grow, but it also needs to be polished, otherwise it will only make people become frogs at the bottom of the well.

Fujima waved his hand to stop the noise and shouting around him.

"If you want to train alone, you can, as long as you can beat me."

The arena fell silent in an instant.

And after a short reaction, it is boiling.

“HOHOHO！ Don't be cowardly, boy! Be tough and stick to your personality to the end! ”

"I can see Senior Fujima abusing vegetables again!"

"Fuji Shin ......," Hanagato shouted with a frown.

In the intra-team game just now, he didn't go all out, but at the same time he was distracted and paid attention to the training of the newcomers.

This big man from the dragon country has a pretty good foundation, and maybe he can have a chance to fill the bench vacancy in Xiangyang this year, but if Fuji Zhen shoots at him, it may ruin this potential newcomer's interest in basketball.

Fujima is too serious about this first-year newcomer......

"I don't want it." Lin Dong smiled and said an answer that made Hua Xingtou feel a little relieved.

Fortunately, this newcomer is not as arrogant as he imagined.

But immediately following Lin Dong's second half of the sentence, it made the flower shape become stunned in an instant.

"I'm afraid that will ruin your belief in basketball."

He said lightly to Fuji Shin, and used the same tone as Fuji Shin, as if Fujima Keyji was the challenger standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up at the peak.

And the stadium, which was still chattering and buzzing, suddenly fell silent at this time and became completely silent.
