NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

After listening to Hanamichi's memories, everyone in Xiangbei fell into deep thought.

They understood Hanamichi's strength and were able to use it to break through Hainan's two-man defense.

However, he lost to Mori Shigehiro in a head-on battle of strength.

Akagi is in an even more difficult situation. Judging from the body shape and dynamic qualities described by Hanamichi, he is afraid that he may not be able to cover Mori Shigehiro.

Hua Dao also noticed the solemnity of the crowd, and in order to ease the atmosphere, he pretended to be relaxed and said:

"What are you thinking about! Since they are in the lower half anyway, let Changcheng High School test the strength of Mingpeng Industry for us in advance!"

"Even if Changcheng High School loses, we will still have Ryonan to help us in the semi-finals."

"The strength of Monkey Boss is enough to reveal what kind of weirdo Mori Shigehiro is!"

"Well, we don't need to be so nervous anyway. At least judging from the schedule, there are no other strong teams in our half except Sanno, Kainan and this Touou."

"Toyota? Toyota is very strong!"

Mu Mu had never heard of the name Toyotama, so he asked casually.

After all, Hanamichi compares this school with Sanno and Kainan.

The rest of the people were also participating in the national competition for the first time and knew very little about the basic knowledge about the strong teams in the country.

Facing the curious Shohoku players, Hanamichi was extremely envious of the Ryonan team for having a professional intelligence scout, Hikoichi Aida.

At least it can save you a lot of trouble!

At this time, Hanamichi had already seen a "troublesome" pigtail from the corner of his eye ~ Kishimoto Miri was walking towards him.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Hanamichi deliberately said loudly:

"Touou is a well-established national team. Their strength should be above Changcheng High School."

"Besides, their coach Kitano and our coach Anzai are old friends, so we can be considered a team of brothers!"

"Their run-and-gun style of play is top-notch in the country. When they play their first game against Kumamoto High School, Miyagi, you must go and watch. I believe you will learn a lot about fast breaks!"

"I just wonder if they welcome us? Misaki Kishimoto, the power forward of the Touou High School basketball team!"

Following Hanamichi's gaze, the Xiangbei people cleared a passage for each other.

At the very end stood a tall man in a blue shirt and pigtails.

I don’t know if it’s because Hanamichi praised their Toyotama and run-and-gun tactics so much.

I still saw Coach Anzai, and I remembered the friendship with Coach Kitano.

So this time, Kishimoto did not show his barbaric and unreasonable side.

Unlike the original work, he is also one of the parties involved in the team and knows that the Xiangbei basketball team originally planned to invite them to Touou to participate in the summer training camp.

I originally wanted to take this opportunity to meet Coach Kitano again.

"Damn it, it was all ruined by that incompetent Kingpin on the team!"

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Misaki Kishimoto first politely greeted Coach Anzai.

Expressed regret for not being able to train together (goodbye Coach Kitano).

Then he said proudly to Hanamichi:

"Although we at Touou will face the national champion Sanno Industrial in the second round, we welcome you from Shohoku to come and watch and learn! We will definitely not let you down!"

Hua Dao heard this and said:

"Please go back and tell Nan Lie that Shanwang is not a team that can be easily defeated by small tricks."

Kishimoto knew what Hanamichi meant, and replied with a slight frown:

"Of course I know that! See you at the national competition."

After saying that, he threw a basketball magazine to Hanamichi, then left the carriage where Xiangbei was cleanly and neatly.

Mu Mu adjusted his glasses and said gently:

"I didn't expect the players from Touou High School to be so polite! It just so happens that we have a bye in the first round on the first day of the competition. Akagi, why don't we go and learn Touou's fast break style together!"

Akagi nodded and arranged:

"Then divide the troops into three groups. The first two groups will go to support Ryonan and Kainan respectively, and you and Miyagi will go to Touou to watch the battle!"

Hanamichi looked at the excited Mugure and sighed secretly:

"Politeness? Brother Glasses, do you know that you were almost strangled just now? Luckily, I was sharp-eyed and saved you!"

"Forget it, you'll know when you go to watch the Touou game in person."

Hanamichi opened the basketball weekly magazine that Kishimoto threw to him, and according to the introduction and comments in the magazine, he continued to educate others about the strong teams in the country and the strong players.

As for Xiangbei's comments, they are different from the original:

The Xiangbei team has a national-level starting center, Takenori Akagi, and two strong players. The two potential first-year stars in the team are the key to determining how far they can go.

Rating: A

…………

After about 6 hours, the train finally arrived in Hiroshima.

Because this time the school is funding and rewarding the basketball team members to participate in the national competition.

So Coach Anzai contacted his good friend in Tokyo, and with a wave of his hand, he rented a B&B with a beautiful environment without any hesitation.

This B&B also has a complete open-air basketball court for them to practice.

The Xiangbei players were paired in each room, and Hanamichi and Rukawa were placed in one room.

On the second day, the hot August sun shone into the B&B room with warmth through the curtains.

Hanamichi dragged the sleepy Rukawa Kaede for a morning run around the B&B.

All members of the basketball club are constantly gathering on the road.

After a hearty and delicious breakfast, everyone, led by Coach Anzai, went to the main stadium in Hiroshima to attend the opening ceremony.

There are a total of 60 participating teams, and they stand according to their competition numbers.

Tomorrow, the first round of the national competition will begin, and 28 teams will be eliminated.

(Sanno, Shohoku, Hakata Commercial and Meiho are seeded teams and have a bye in the first round.)

Next to Shohoku is Mambanishi High School in Iwate Prefecture.

Because Magamiya Nishi High School is adjacent to Akita Prefecture, it was beaten badly by Sanno Industrial in the national competition for three consecutive years.

He doesn't take anyone seriously except Sanwang.

To put it simply, I only acknowledge the strength of the national champion Sannoh. As for other teams, I don’t know them and don’t need to know them.

This time, captain Mamiya Nishi discovered that his first-round opponent was actually Dogo University Affiliated High School in Ehime Prefecture, standing on his left.

So he sneered at them and didn't take them seriously at all.

The people on Dogo University's affiliated basketball team were angry but dared not speak out.

There is no way, after all, they were eliminated in the first round in the previous few times, and in terms of hard power, they are really not as good as Ma Gongxi.

The players of Mamiyanishi also felt bored when they saw that Dogo University Affiliated School was acting like a coward.

So they turned their attention to the team standing on their right, their second round opponent, Xiangbei High School!
