If you had the opportunity to go to Xiangbei High School, where would the first place you go
Different people will have different answers to this question, but for martial arts, there is only one place to go first, and that is the basketball hall where those young basketball players shed their youthful sweat.
Xiangbei High School is a county high school. Although its hardware facilities are not as good as many private schools, there is one thing that can definitely be compared with private schools, and that is the area.
Xiangbei High School is very large, with a low wall surrounding the campus. The green fences along the wall are full of cherry trees. At this time of year, the cherry blossoms in the school are in full bloom, and at a glance, the eyes are filled with pink romance.
The basketball hall is located in the southeast corner of the Xiangbei campus. The basketball hall is very large and has three doors. One is the main entrance facing the school playground, a back door connected to a winding path, and a side door directly connected to the teaching building of Xiangbei High School. Sometimes there will be basketball-related courses during physical education classes at school, and students can walk through the corridor and come directly to the basketball hall from the teaching building.
It was early spring and the weather was still a little chilly, and the students walking on campus were all wearing autumn clothes.
I don’t know if this is a characteristic of Japan, but even though the weather is still a bit cool, the girls’ school uniforms are still short skirts. I don’t know if that thin layer of stockings can bring warmth to those girls.
"That's great! High school students are really different from junior high school students!"
Wudao looked at the "scenery" that came into his sight and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Soon, Wudao crossed the playground and came to the basketball hall.
Standing at the door of the basketball hall, Wudao heard the noise coming from inside the hall. It seemed that someone was playing basketball inside the hall early in the morning
Pushing open the door, the Xiangbei stadium came into view.
In the gym, a group of people were playing a half-court three-on-three game. There were six people on the offense and defense sides of the court. Two young men were standing on the side of the court, dribbling the ball and watching the game out of boredom.
"Oh~ There are people playing basketball so early in the morning? The basketball atmosphere is quite good!"
Jinguji Budou didn't even change his shoes at the door. He watched the game on the field while walking towards the two young men on the sidelines.
"Hey, seniors, are you guys playing ball?"
"There are two of you now, right?"
"Add one more person. I'm not very good at playing. You guys can guide me and add another group."
Jinguji Budou walked to the two young men on the sidelines, patted them on the shoulders, and said with a smile. The two men were focused on the court and did not notice that Budou had come to the court.
"Ah? Why would you add a ball if you can't play..."
The young man who was patted on the shoulder by Wudao shrugged his shoulders to get rid of Wudao's hand on his shoulder, and said something impatiently. At the same time, he slowly turned his head, wanting to see who was so ignorant that he wanted to add a group when he couldn't play basketball
But before he could finish his words, a dark shadow blocked his view, and his words were stuck in his throat.
Looking up, the boy finally saw the boy standing behind him.
"Wow... so tall!" The young man tilted his head and looked at Jinguji Takeshi who was a little dazed. He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart. His height was only up to Takeshi's chest. The moment he turned his head, he couldn't see Takeshi's face at all.
"You are..." Jinguji Takeshi also saw the young man clearly. He didn't expect that the first person he met at the gym was someone he knew!
"Uh, hello, you want to add one more person, right? We are short of one person! I will add you!"
"My name is Miyagi Ryouta, you don't have to call me senior, I'm a freshman!"
The boy who was patted on the shoulder by Wudao was Miyagi Ryouta. At this time, Miyagi Ryouta was only about 160cm tall, with dark skin like a child from the mountains. However, Ryouta was dressed very fashionably, with brown curly hair and an earring. He did not wear the school's uniform black uniform, but instead wore his own sports shirt.
"Miyagi Ryouta! Hello, my name is Jinguji Budou, and I'm a judo player!"
Wudao said with a smile and extended a hand towards Miyagi Ryouta. Wudao didn't expect that on the first day of arriving at school, before he officially joined the basketball team, he would meet Miyagi Ryouta.
Miyagi Ryouta subconsciously grasped the hand that Wu Dao extended and murmured, "You are actually a judo player. You must be very strong in judo competitions."
"Haha, it's just so-so, just for fun." Wu Dao smiled and said nothing more. During the time Wu Dao was talking to Miyagi Ryouta, the young man standing next to Miyagi Ryouta also turned around and looked over.
It was only at this point that Wu Dao noticed the young man.
"Hey, an acquaintance too!" Wudao looked at the other person's face and laughed secretly in his heart.
"Um, do you want to join a group to play? I also want to play basketball for a while." Kakuta Satoru closed his eyes. Oh, no, squinted his eyes, that's not right either. He tried hard to open his eyes and looked at Wudao and Miyagi, and said softly.
This guy's eyes are so narrow, narrower than a bulldog's. Wu Dao really doesn't know whether this guy has his eyes closed or open. With such a pair of eyes, he will never be caught looking at a beautiful woman on the street!
"Oh, hello, Kakuda-san."
Wu Dao nodded and said with a smile, then he shouted to the two teams playing on the court: "Seniors, let's add another group!"
"None of the three of us are very good at fighting, let's add another group!"
Wu Dao's voice attracted the attention of several people who were playing basketball. These people were the sophomores and juniors of Xiangbei High School. They played three-on-three for a while to relieve their boredom before the morning exercise began. Of course, they would not refuse Wu Dao's request. After all, they were just bullying the weak. Why would they refuse such an interesting thing
However, when they looked at Takeshi and others on the sidelines, they immediately noticed Takeshi Jinguji standing behind Ryouta Miyagi and Satoru Kakuda. There was nothing they could do, this guy was just too tall!
"What a tall guy, is he a freshman this year? Judging from his height, he is comparable to Akagi!"
"Let them fight and see? If they are freshmen this year, guys this tall can add a lot of fighting power to the team!"
Several senior players involuntarily stopped the game. The six of them gathered together and whispered to each other. Then, a senior came out and said with a smile:
"If you guys want to play too, come up and play for a while. This group of us just needs a break."
"Playing six balls, the consequences of losing, changing teams, do you understand the rules of basketball? Do you need me to explain them to you?"
This senior from Xiangbei was quite easy to talk to. While talking to Wudao and others, he waved to several of his teammates, signaling them to leave the court.
"No, no, I can do it a little bit, a little bit."
Upon hearing this, Wu Dao waved his hands and spoke politely.
"Let's go, the three of us together." As Wu Dao spoke, he took off his coat, without changing his pants, and casually put his coat and bag on the sidelines, then walked into the stadium.
Unlike Budo, both Miyagi Ryouta and Kakuda Satoru were wearing sportswear. It seemed that the two had been planning to come to the gym to play basketball.
"Are you okay wearing these pants? School pants are not loose, don't get hurt." Although Miyagi Ryouta was dressed like a bad boy, he had a good heart and reminded Wu Dao.
"It's okay, just have fun."
"I'll stand inside. It seems that my height is quite an advantage."
Wudao opened his arms, stretched them briefly, and walked towards the basket. Miyagi Ryouta looked at Wudao and said nothing more. He looked at Kakuda Satoru and said:
"I'm a defender, let me hold the ball."
Of course, Kakuta had no objection to what Miyagi Ryouta said. He knew his own strengths and weaknesses. Although he had never seen Miyagi Ryouta play basketball, from Miyagi's confident look, Kakuta was still willing to believe that he could play basketball.
"They are all new faces! First years, let you tee off!"
The three people who remained on the court generously threw the ball to Miyagi Ryouta, and then each found someone to mark them and dispersed.
The one defending Jinguji Takeshi was a third-year senior, about 180cm tall, a little taller than Kakuda, but standing in front of Takeshi, he was a whole head shorter.
"So tall, this guy is taller than Akagi!" This senior has been with Akagi for a long time. When comparing the heights of Takeshi and Akagi, he only needs to stand in front of Takeshi and he can roughly estimate Takeshi's height.
Standing in front of Wu Dao, the senior student put away all his emotions of looking down on his opponent, and looked serious and earnest.
"Let's start!" Miyagi Ryouta walked to the center circle with the ball. After handing it to the defensive player for inspection, Miyagi took the basketball back.
The moment the basketball was in his hand, Miyagi Ryouta started to break through without any pause. Although Miyagi was short, his dribbling speed was very fast. Before the defender could even notice, Miyagi Ryouta had already broken through him and was approaching the three-point line with the ball.
When Wudao saw Miyagi complete the breakthrough, he did not continue to stand under the basket stupidly. Instead, he changed direction, walked along the baseline, and moved to the mid-range position, leaving the basket empty and giving Miyagi Ryouta enough space to attack the basket.
Miyagi's breakthrough was so dazzling that the three Shohoku seniors' attention was attracted by Miyagi. They didn't even pay attention to Jinguji Budo who had left the inside line. Instead, they all gathered around Miyagi.
In their opinion, Gongcheng Liangtian, who possesses outstanding breakthrough capabilities, is the one they should guard against.
Wu Dao originally thought that Miyagi would attack the basket after the breakthrough, and even if he couldn't score, he could still draw a foul. In a three-on-three basketball game, there would be no problem with such an offensive choice.
However, contrary to Wudao's expectations, Miyagi Ryouta, who had completed the breakthrough, seemed to have no intention of attacking the basket at all. After noticing Wudao's position, he directly passed the ball to Wudao before the double-team was formed.
"Pass the ball!"
"What a quick pass!"
Miyagi's intention of passing the ball was actually quite obvious. Several seniors from Shohoku noticed it and wanted to intercept it, but Miyagi passed the ball very quickly. In the blink of an eye, the basketball was in Budou's hands from the outside.
"Very comfortable receiving position, good pass!"
As soon as he got the basketball, Budo realized that Miyagi was a pretty good passer, and with a sigh in his mind, he grabbed the ball with his right hand, quickly raised it, and casually threw it towards the basket.
"Swish!" With a slight sound, the basketball went into the net.
Several Shohoku players on the court looked at Budo, then at Miyagi Ryouta, and were a little bit incredulous for a moment.
It was so easy, it was so easy to score.
"I actually got in, what luck~" Wudao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, then gave Miyagi a thumbs up.
"Fight well and guard your own people!"
The third-year player from Xiangbei who missed the defense of Wudao clapped his hands and reminded the players. Then he shifted his defensive attention to Miyagi Ryouta.
With his vision, what he could see was Miyagi Ryouta's sharp breakthrough. As for the point scored by Martial Arts, he just ate a cake. The starting point and rhythm of the attack were still in Miyagi Ryouta's hands.
Second goal.
The one who kicked off was still Miyagi Ryouta.
If a person has an absolute speed advantage, then when he dribbles past the defense, he can use the same method a hundred times without changing the breakthrough method.
This is the situation with Miyagi Ryouta's current matchup.
The player defending Miyagi couldn't keep up with Miyagi Ryouta's breakthrough. Whether it was to the left or the right, Miyagi's breakthrough speed was very fast. The player defending him was already sieved.
When facing Miyagi who completed the breakthrough, the other two players on the defensive side had to provide backup defense, which would leave either Takeshi or Kadota Satoru open, giving them the opportunity to shoot.
Miyagi is very smart. After breaking through, he often finds Wudao's position immediately and passes the ball to Wudao. As a three-on-three center, Wudao often moves to the mid-range position when Miyagi breaks through, which makes it difficult for the inside player defending Wudao to go out or not.
The other team wanted to bet that Wu Dao would miss the shot, but after five consecutive shots, they finally realized that what Wu Dao said about not being able to play was nonsense.
Win the next round easily.
After scoring 6 points, Wu Dao didn't even feel anything. He just casually shot six balls and then went to the next group. It was the first time for Wu Dao to play three-on-three so easily.
The second team came on the court. The situation they faced was actually not much different from that of the first group. They were completely unable to defend against Miyagi Ryouta. Soon, the second group was also defeated by Miyagi's sudden scoring style. Of the six balls, Miyagi made a layup himself, Kakuta the Great made a basket under the basket, and the remaining four were all scored by Wudao.
Both groups of people later realized that it was wrong to let Wudao take the mid-range shot, but even with people defending him, Wudao still had no pressure in shooting. Height was a hurdle that the players defending Wudao could not overcome. Wudao did not even have to jump to shoot over these people's heads.
"Easy, easy!" A three-on-three practice match was turned into a shooting practice for Miyagi and Budo.
While Za Wudao and the others were playing on the court, the Xiangbei players who came to participate in the morning exercise arrived at the stadium one after another. As soon as these people arrived, they were attracted by the three-on-three exercise on the court.
"Add a group, add a group." Such voices kept coming. Wudao, Miyagi and Kakuda Satoru had no idea how many new trios they had seen on the court. No matter how many groups were added in this practice, the three of them stayed on the court and never left.
Soon, Akagi Takenori and Kogure Kogure and their group arrived. They did not form another group, but stood quietly on the sidelines and watched the game.
As more and more Xiangbei players arrived, soon this small half of the court was surrounded by people.
When Mitsui Hisashi, Chiba Oishi and others arrived at the gym and saw so many people gathered in half of the court, they were still confused. They didn't expect that the players' training enthusiasm today was so poor that they didn't start practicing and actually gathered together.
But when Mitsui pushed through the crowd and saw Jinguji Budo giving "military training" to his players on the court, the face of the current Shohoku captain turned ashen.
They were beaten to pieces. A group of high school students were beaten to pieces by Jinguji Budou and other freshmen who had just graduated from junior high school. As the captain of Shohoku, how could Mitsui Shou have a good face when he saw this scene
"Eh? Xiao San~"
"You are an incompetent captain of Xiangbei. All these players are not good enough."
"I was beaten up by this kid."
Jinguji Budo was still playing the game on the court, but he immediately spotted Mitsui who had squeezed out of the crowd. He casually threw the ball towards the basket with the sound of the net hitting the net. He pointed at Miyagi Ryouta not far away and shouted at Mitsui with a smile.
Wu Dao had no awareness of being a junior at all. As soon as he opened his mouth, he started to create hatred for Miyagi Ryouta and directly offended all the players present.
