Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Experience at Xiangbei

Chapter 18: Attack, Sendoh Akira!

Views:

"Sendoh Akira... ..Sendoh Akira!"

"That pot-cut bastard is called Sendoh Akira?!"

Under the guidance of Anzai Zhengyi, Jinguji Wudao looked at the pink team No. 13 who was in the field. When Wudao heard the name Sendoh Akira from Anzai Zhengyi, he was stunned.

The pink team's No. 13, who had just taken his place on the court, was about 180cm tall, tall and thin. He wore a pink team uniform and a pair of flashy pink sneakers. Although his face was angular and his features were regular, he was still a little far from being handsome.

The most discontinuous thing is the boy's hairstyle. The thick hair is like a pot cover covering the boy's head. If it weren't for his different figure, everyone would believe that he was Xiguataro Wudou.

But now Anzai Zhengyi told him that the boy with the same hairstyle as Xiguataro was actually Sendoh Akira? The Sendoh Akira who used five cans of hair wax for one hairstyle!

Wudao cannot accept such a reality.

"Yes, that boy is called Sendoh Akira, and he is the ace of Qiuyue High School."

"Why? Do you know him?"

Anxi Zhengyi heard the shock in Wudao's tone. He thought Wudao knew the player, so he asked in confusion.

"No... I don't know..."

"I just think... um... this name is kind of cool."

Wu Dao said perfunctorily, but in his heart he was shouting that it was impossible. He straightened up a little from his originally lazy sitting posture and began to take this game seriously.

If that "Watermelon Taro" is really Sendoh, then this match against Akizuki High School might not be so easy to win.

"Let's see the strength of both sides."

Wu Dao thought secretly, his eyes fixed on "Xigua Taro".

“Beep!”

On the court, after both teams took their positions, the referee finally blew the whistle to start the game. As the sharp whistle sounded, amazing cheers broke out in the stadium. At the same time, the basketball was thrown high into the air by the referee.

“Bang!”

A crisp sound made the noisy gym a little quieter. The one who won the jump ball was the center of Akizuki Middle School. The opponent's center was wearing a No. 6 jersey and was about 185cm tall with shoes on, which was similar to the 187cm of Takeishi Junior High School's center Fujii Masao.

However, the opponent's control of the timing of the jump ball was obviously much better than that of Fujii Masao. He seized the best time when the basketball fell, jumped before Fujii Masao jumped, and grabbed the basketball first.

"It's okay, defend!"

On the court, when Mitsui Hisashi saw Fujii Masao fail in the jump ball, he immediately comforted him and then started to return to defense.

The team that won the jump ball, Qiuyue High School, passed the ball several times and finally gave it to the boy with the pot-cut number 13, Sendoh Akira.

"Well done, don't worry, we'll score first!"

After getting the basketball, Sendoh Akira slowly carried the basketball into the frontcourt, shouting as he moved forward. It seemed that he wanted to fight a positional battle.

The average height of the five players from Akizuki High School is quite tall. No. 13 Sendoh Akira is 182cm tall, and 185cm tall with shoes. The center of the pink team, No. 6, is also 185cm tall with shoes, similar to Fujii Masao. The captain of the pink team, No. 4 power forward, is also 180cm tall. The guards, No. 5 and No. 7, are 176cm and 171cm tall respectively.

The player defending Sendoh Akira at Takeishi Junior High School is Toyokawa Taro, who is only 174cm tall.

"What a tall guy! After the jump ball, the basketball was immediately handed to this guy. Is this guy the guard who organizes the offense at Qiuyue High School?"

"The advancement speed is not fast, are you planning to fight a positional war?!"

Taro Toyokawa saw that Sendoh was not dribbling very fast and was still several meters away from the three-point line. He took this opportunity to look back at his own defense line, wanting to observe the opponent's possible passing route.

However, when he turned around again, he only saw a pink figure passing by, and at the same time, the sound of dribbling exploded in his ears.

"Breakthrough?! What a fast speed!"

"This kid doesn't want to fight for the position?!"

By the time Taro Toyokawa came to his senses, Sendoh had already entered the three-point line with the basketball. He did not dribble deep into the three-point line. He was two steps inside the three-point line and took a mid-range shot before Masao Fujii and Chiba Oishi could come up to defend.

The basketball flew across the court and fell into the basket with a crisp sound.

“… … ..”

Silence. The stadium fell into a brief silence.

Sendoh's attack was so fast that most people in the stadium didn't react. Even before all the players from Qiuyue High School entered the three-point line, Sendoh had already successfully scored.

Although Sendoh said not to be impatient, he completed this round of attack in just a few seconds.

After a long time, a few cheers came from the bench of Qiuyue High School. Sendo's attack was so fast that even his teammates off the court didn't react.

2:0, as the score on the scoreboard changed, the players from Qiuyue Middle School began to defend.

"Hehe, don't be too surprised, boys from Takeishi Middle School."

“This is just the beginning.”

Off the court, Akizuki High School coach Katori Shingo sneered, making a sinister chuckle. The next second, the coach stood up from his seat and yelled:

"Well done, Sendoh!"

His sudden shout scared the players from Qiuyue High School around him. They all patted their chests, looking extremely frightened.

"Don't worry, I'll get the score back soon."

“This is just the beginning!”

"Toyokawa, be careful and don't slack off."

Sendoh's goal boosted morale, and his easy scoring gave people the feeling that Takeishi Junior High School was vulnerable. This put a lot of pressure on the players of Takeishi Junior High School.

The first person on the court to notice the pressure was Mitsui Hisashi, who was clapping his hands to encourage his teammates.

"Mitsui is right, it's our turn to attack!"

"Just go for it, leave the basket to me."

Fujii Masao echoed, and then began to run to the front court. Chiba Daishi at the bottom line picked up the basketball and passed it to Mitsui Shou. Then Takeishi and his men began to advance to the front court.

"That kid's goal put a lot of pressure on our players. We have to return the favor!"

Mitsui Shou started with the basketball, thinking so in his heart, and subconsciously accelerated his speed. When he came to the front court, the No. 5 player of Qiuyue Middle School came up to him. The opponent's height was 176cm, not much different from Mitsui Shou.

Facing players with similar build to himself, Mitsui Hisashi had no concerns at all. He was full of confidence in his own abilities.

Mitsui Hisashi was carrying the basketball to the three-point line when he suddenly misstepped his steps. The basketball quickly passed between his left and right hands under his crotch and his center of gravity suddenly dropped.

The opponent thought that Mitsui Shou was going to break through, so they quickly lowered their center of gravity and prepared to defend. However, just as the No. 5 of Akizuki High School lowered his center of gravity, Mitsui Shou on the opposite side suddenly picked up the basketball, took a sideways step and stood outside the three-point line, holding the ball and posing for shooting.
