Aomine Daiki In Shohoku: The Beginning

"Bang, bang, bang!!"

Shin Izumi stood at the midline and dribbled the ball slowly with one hand.

The others of Shohoku separated and ran towards Shoyo's backcourt.

However.

None of them looked at Shin Izumi.

It seemed... that they knew Shin Izumi would not pass the basketball in his hand.

Everyone in Shoyo also quickly marked their opponents.

Suddenly!

Shin Izumi moved!

If Miyagi's dribbling made people feel like a light and agile lightning, then Shin Izumi's dribbling was like an unstoppable sandstorm, which felt enough to destroy everything.

Not only was it as fast as lightning, but it also had an explosive impact.

Even though he was 193 cm tall, his dribbling was as smooth as flowing water, and every turn and breakthrough was full of power and confidence.

His steps were quite large, and it only took two steps from the midline to the Shoyo arc top three-point line.

It was incredible.

Seeing the menacing Shin Izumi.

Shoyo and his team were facing a formidable enemy.

"He's coming!"

Hanagata couldn't help but shout while staring at Akagi.

Ito, who was originally facing Miyagi, did not choose to follow Miyagi, but immediately rushed to the top of the arc for the three-pointer.

No matter what, he had to stop Shin Izumi.

This was the task Fujima gave him!

Takano Shoichi was the same.

The two came from opposite directions at the same time.

Formed a double-teaming trend.

Wanted to intercept Shin Izumi outside the three-point line.

Both of them were not too short, and their outstretched arms expanded the defensive range a lot.

Seeing Shoyo come up and double-teamed him.

There was an uproar in the stands again.

"Double-team! Shoyo used a double-team tactic!"

"Can the two of them stop Shin Izumi?"

"I think it's a bit risky! Shin Izumi's dribbling is so gorgeous, it feels like the sky and the ball are one."

"Two tall people, is Fujima thinking too simply?"

Shinichi Maki frowned, looking at the two sides who were about to collide.

"No, except for No. 6, everyone else's attention will almost be on Shin Izumi."

"And even if Shin Izumi passes the two and enters the basket, he will be stopped by No. 7 and Hanagata. By then... No. 8 and No. 9 will come from behind, unless they pass the ball, otherwise..."

Riki Takato, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.

Even though the two sides haven't met yet, Riki Takato has guessed some of what will happen later.

"Four people? Haha, Fujima is really arguing with Shin Izumi."

Shinichi Maki smiled.

At this time

Facing the double team of Ito and Takano, Shin Izumi remained calm.

He passed through the two of them easily like the wind, dribbled past them skillfully, and showed amazing speed and burst.

"Nani!"

Ito and Takano's faces changed drastically, and they shouted in unison.

Shin Izumi's speed was really ridiculous, and he passed them all in one step.

When he came to the free throw line, Shin Izumi did not continue to attack the basket, but jumped up directly.

Hanagata and Nagano saw this and immediately made up for it and jumped at the same time.

"This is a no-fly zone!"

The two stretched out their arms, like two huge trees covering the sky, covering all of Shin Izumi's shooting space.

"No shooting space!"

"I'm afraid this shot won't work!"

Miyagi and Mitsui stared at the three people flying in the air.

Kaede Rukawa stood where he was, with no intention of going to support him at all. He stared at Shin Izumi's back with his eyes fixed.

How would Shin Izumi play this ball?

" Shin Izumi! Pass the ball!"

Akagi, who was under the basket, saw this scene and immediately waved for the ball.

This was not the short guys like Tsukutake. Nagano, who was 191 cm tall, and Hanagata, who was 197 cm tall, only needed to jump high and raise their hands to almost block a large area of ​​shooting space under the basket.

However.

Facing Akagi's request for the ball, Shin Izumi ignored it.

Tightening all the muscles in his body, holding the ball with both hands, he still maintained the shooting posture.

Gradually, Hanagata and Nagano looked extremely ugly.

Because.

They found.

They had already started to fall.

But?

Shin Izumi? Actually, there was a vague feeling of rising!

"Amazing air retention,'!"

Taoka Moichi sat up straight and couldn't help but sigh.

However.

Just as Hanagata and the others began to fall, two more figures jumped up behind Shin Izumi.

It was Ito and Takano who were passed.

After being passed, the two did not remain in a daze, but reacted quickly to chase and defend.

"I won't let you shoot!"

Takano shouted.

Then he stretched his arms as far as he could, trying to block Shin Izumi.

But.

Despite this, Shin Izumi had already had space to shoot.

"Perfect time to shoot!"

Riki Takato opened his folding fan, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

This was his first time watching Shin Izumi's game live, and he had only read newspapers before.

In addition to his super high speed, he also had a good ability to stay in the air.

He vaguely felt that... Kainan's biggest enemy this year might be Shohoku!

But.

Shin Izumi, who had enough space to shoot, did not shoot immediately.

This also made Riki Takato frown.

"What a pity, I missed the best time to shoot. It seems that I lack experience.

No matter what the opportunity is, it will be fleeting, especially in competitive games.

If I shoot now, I will risk being blocked by Takano.

Until he saw Shin Izumi's next move on the court, his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Because.

Shin Izumi's original shooting action instantly turned into a layup, and the hand holding the ball passed under Takano's arm before it slipped out of his hand.

"ABU!"

"Shh!!"

The basketball and the referee's whistle sounded at the same time.

Shin Izumi threw the ball and scored, "and at the same time caused Takano to commit ten fouls.

Suddenly.

Riki Takato was a little uneasy.

It turned out that Shin Izumi didn't intend to shoot from the beginning, nor did he want the two points.

But... while scoring, he committed a foul!

This kid is very scheming!

"Good shot!"

"Well done!"

Shohoku's rest area finally let go of his worries and cheered.

In the stands.

The audience was also staring.

Wow, one on four, and Shoyo's tall man not only scored, but also committed a foul.

How strong is this guy's heart!

Fujima clenched his fists. Shin Izumi's simple shot shocked him greatly.

Is this calculated or a coincidence?

With Shin Izumi's free throws, the score between the two sides came to 7:2.

Temporarily leading by 5 points.

"It's okay! It's just 5 points! We can catch up soon."

Fujima clapped his hands in the rest area and continued to encourage morale.

Although Hanagata and others were still scored by the opponent despite the four-on-one defense, they did not show any discouragement on their faces, but were full of fighting spirit.

Taku Itou pushed the ball forward again.

He began to observe Shohoku's position.

It is currently a 1-3-1 zone defense.

Shin Izumi stood at the front, Kaede Rukawa and Mitsui were on the left and right wings, and Miyagi was at the free throw line.

It looked like.

If he broke through Shin Izumi, he would have to prevent Miyagi from stealing the ball when he came to the basket.

However.

He still had to get past Shin Izumi first.

He tried to shake Shin Izumi's center of gravity, but found that the other party did not move at all, and his eyes were staring at him like a beast.

He felt a little scared in his heart for no reason.

At the moment he was stunned.

He felt a big hand around him.

When he reacted.

"Snap!"

The basketball in his hand was directly slapped away.

The flying basketball bounced straight out of bounds.

"Damn! What kind of shooting speed is this!"

Ito was a person who had experienced big scenes, so he reacted immediately and ran towards the basketball quickly, trying to get the ball back.

But his speed was obviously not Shin Izumi's opponent.

He had just taken a step forward when he saw the basketball that was about to go out of bounds being grabbed by the opponent.

Then there was a loud rumbling sound.

Shin Izumi was like a high-speed bullet train, crossing the court in just a few steps, a standard three-step layup.

The basketball was sent into Shoyo's basket again.

9:2

Shohoku continued to expand its lead.

"Don't be distracted when facing Shin Izumi, pass the ball around him!"

Hanagata reminded him when he served the ball.

Ito nodded and pushed the ball forward again.

He just passed the midline and was about to pass the basketball in his hand to his teammates.

Just as the ball was out of his hand.

He felt a gust of wind slapping his face, and then the basketball that was supposed to fly towards his teammates was intercepted by a big hand again.

Ito was shocked.

No. 11! Shin Izumi again!

At this time, the rest of Shoyo had already pressed forward to the offensive frontcourt. Even Hanagata, who came up last, had already positioned himself under Shohoku's basket. The closest person was Ito, but the lightning was intercepted in an instant and the opponent had already started a fast break.

Chase? It's definitely impossible to catch up.

Hagata and his team didn't even have time to react before they saw Shohoku's score on the electronic scoreboard change again.

11:2.

Shohoku's lead was about to reach double digits.

In less than a minute, Shin Izumi scored 7 points in succession.

"`〃Tsk tsk! Shoyo looks like he's going to collapse!"

"It's not even a minute? Shin Izumi scored 7 points in a row?"

"It's too difficult for No. 9 to fight Shin Izumi alone!"

In the stands, seeing such a one-sided situation, they started talking again.

Stealing a dragon? It's rare for one person to do it twice in a row on the court.

But if this person is Shin Izumi.

They were somewhat numb.

"Shin Izumi is simply unstoppable! His reaction is like a leopard, too fast."

Koshino looked at Shin Izumi who instantly helped Shohoku to open up the score, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Just watch, this is just the beginning."

"He has a long arm span and is extremely fast. Once he gets close, the opponent's ball control point is almost within his steal range."

"Unless... Ito passes the ball in his own half. If he doesn't even see this, he will be intercepted next time."

Although it was not the first time that Sendoh saw Shin Izumi show his scoring ability, every time he saw it, he felt that this man was not someone he could deal with.

At least... two people had to keep a close eye on him throughout the game!

But he didn't have such a strong desire to win or lose. He was happy if he won, and lost if he lost.

There was nothing he could do about it.

"Good shot! Well done!"

"We can see Shin Izumi's personal performance again!"

Kuwata and others in the Shohoku rest area shouted excitedly with admiration.

Sakuragi Hanamichi sat on a chair. Although he didn't say anything, he felt the atmosphere of the entire basketball hall.

Almost everyone was shouting Shin Izumi's name.

He envied this scene, and could even be said to be jealous.

(Hey) But unlike before, he didn't go crazy and say anything like he wanted to play.

"The honor of the team is higher than the individual's limelight."

He murmured and repeated what Shin Izumi had said to him.

Indeed, Shin Izumi was now in the limelight and attracted the attention of the whole audience, but it seemed that based on this cheering.

The team was indeed in the lead.

The game in the field continued.

Shoyo served from the baseline.

Shin Izumi scored 7 points in one minute. Even if they didn't want to believe it, it was the fact that Ito even sent the ball out before half court.

He couldn't stand the fear of being dominated by Shin Izumi.

Takano got the ball.

Even though Shiraki was flexible and fast, his height was a flaw.

He only needs to lift the ball, and Yoshiki will have no way to pass it over his head.

This time, the pass after the judgement Yang missed Shin Izumi looked very smooth.

After several consecutive passes, the basketball fell into the hands of Hanagata under the basket again.

Takano and Ito looked at each other and blocked Kazuma Qing at the same time.

To prevent him from interfering with Hanagata's attack.

However.

They both overestimated themselves. Shin Izumi's terrible instantaneous explosive power allowed him to get rid of the double-teaming of the two with a simple turnaround run.

Just when Hanagata shook Akagi's center of gravity and shot the ball at a 45-degree angle.

Shin Izumi was like a tiger, his agile figure was as fast as lightning, and he appeared behind Hanagata in the blink of an eye.

"Be careful!"

Ito and Takano shouted in unison.

But it was too late.

The basketball flying in the air was grabbed by Shin Izumi!

In an instant!

The whole audience was boiling. .
