"Senior Mitsui, I am Ayako Inoue, the new manager of the team, and a fan of Senior Mitsui. Please give me some advice!"

Looking at the curly haired girl in front of her, a smile flashed in Mitsui's eyes and said, "Since I am my fan, I have to take good care of me in the future and the jerseys must be cleaned."

"No problem, I'll cover it with me." Ayako stuck out her tongue and took on the task very happily.

On the other hand, the short Miyagi Liangda who had earrings on the mushroom head, saw this scene, and his eyes were jealous.

Damn Mitsui Shou, Ayako is mine!

On the court, Lu Yunfeng was not very satisfied with this group of freshmen who were training. Miyagi and Imamura were indeed good, but they were just good. At most, they were a little stronger than Xiangbei's substitute. However, Ichiro Shenzong, who was highly anticipated by Mitsui, was useless. He was too thin to withstand the basket and had no ability to shoot far. Compared to the sharpshooter who scored every shot in the original work, Ichiro Shenzong was completely useless.

In addition to the three of them, the other players in Xiangbei are still Kakuda and the others. Of course, other new players also join the basketball club, but after the hard training begins, it is not certain how many people can be left behind.

As Mitsui expected, after a month of intensive training, except for those in the original work, no one else could withstand such high-intensity training and quit the basketball club. Although Mitsui didn't care, he felt uncomfortable when he thought that Xiangbei could not recruit a few good players with his status as the semi-finals of the Summer National Championship and the runner-up in the Winter Cup.

Fortunately, the new ones are enough, especially the addition of Miyagi, Imamura and Ah Shen will definitely be of great help to Shokube's future. And like in the original work, Ichiro Shensong could not bear it at the basket, so he changed to his outside shooting style. Moreover, Ichiro Shensong's shooting talent is really good, and with Mitsui Shou's guidance, Ichiro Shensong's shooting percentage is increasing rapidly and steadily.

Miyagi Ryoda also trained harder because of Ayako's admiration for Mitsui Shou. In his opinion, Ayako just likes Mitsui Shou's basketball well, so as long as he defeats Mitsui Shou, Ayako will definitely fall in love with him. Under such circumstances, Miyagi Ryoda's progress is much faster than in the original work.

What surprised Mitsui the most was the player Imamura Imamura. How can I say it? Although Imamura is a freshman, he is already 1.85 meters tall, and his physique is quite good. He is also good at basketball skills. He has both offense and defense. He is an all-around player. Unfortunately, although Imamura Imamura is all-around, but he is not as outstanding as he is in Xiangbei, but he is also a rare zoo player. He can beat him no matter where he is.

The position of Xiangbei small forward is weaker. With Imamura Ichio's substitute, Xiangbei's strength has risen steadily. Moreover, the bench also has a pair of Miyagi and Ah Shen. In addition to other players, Xiangbei's strength this year is at least twice as strong as last year, and Mitsui Shou is more confident in the championship of this year's national competition.

Not long after, Coach Anxi told the players that this Sunday, Lingnan will come to Xiangbei to play the practice match, which is different from the original work. Lingnan in the original work is the top four team in the county, while Xiangbei in the original work is a first-round tour team. So when playing the practice match, it was the expedition of Xiangbei Laoshi and went to Lingnan's home court to play the game, but now it is completely reversed. Xiangbei is the top four in the country, while Lingnan is just a strong team in the county, so Coach Tarooka of Lingnan took the initiative to ask Coach Anxi to play a practice match with Xiangbei.

Coach Taoka and Coach Anxi are also old acquaintances. Considering that Lingnan has a good freshman this year, Coach Anxi agreed to this practice game just to train the potential Lingnan freshman.

After this Sunday, the entire team of Ryunan resisted the Xiangbei Basketball Hall. After Coach Taoka respectfully greeted Coach Anxi, Ryunan's players also respectfully greeted Mitsui Shou. Because in last year's National Competition and Asian Youth Championship, Mitsui Shou's daimyo had spread throughout Asia. In Japan, a society that respects the strong, Mitsui Shou is naturally superior. Even Sendo, a somewhat proud player, admires him very much, but no matter how much he admires him, judging from Sendo's strong fighting spirit in his eyes, he still hopes to ask Mitsui for advice.

However, Mitsui only played half of this game. Because Shokube is too strong now, Mitsui did not play in the first half at all. He only relied on Akagi, Hirota, Kimu, Imamura and Miyagi to deal with Ryunan. Even so, after the first half, the leading side was Shokube, 64:57, Shokube led by seven points to end the first half.

"Everyone performed well in the first half." During the half-time break, seeing Akagi and others' faces were not very good, Coach Anxi smiled and said, "Actually, Lingnan also has the strength of the semi-finals in the county this year. If Mitsui did not play, you can still lead. It's really a good game."

After hearing what Coach Anxi said, Akagi and his team looked better, which shows that even if the Xiangbei team does not have Mitsui Shou, their strength is completely at the level of the four quarterfinals in the county. With Mitsui Shou, Xiangbei is the most powerful contender for the national championship. From this, it can also be seen that Mitsui's importance and irreplaceable role to this team.

"You can rest in the second half, Mitsui, Ah Shen, Kurosaki (the only three-year-old), Imai (the second-year-old), Yamaguchi (the second-year-old)." After explaining the lineup for the second half, Coach Anxi sat on the side to rest.

After the second half of the game started, although Mitsui brought a group of substitutes in the game, with Mitsui exceeding the high school students, she still led Xiangbei to continue to expand the score, and it expanded very much. After only ten minutes in the second half, Xiangbei was already 30 points ahead, defeating Lingnan.

Especially the genius Xiandao who took the initiative to compete with Mitsui. This time, he really realized what a genius among geniuses is. The power of the genius king. Whether it is offense or defense, Xiandao was completely destroyed by Mitsui. Within ten minutes, Xiandao did not get a single point, but instead lost seven or eight mistakes and four fouls. If it weren't for the practice game that there were no rules for five offenses, Xiandao would have been beaten long ago. After the game, Xiandao also collapsed on the ground, his eyes were lost, and his confidence was beaten to pieces, which made the fans of Xiangbei feel a little unbearable.

"You are very good." Mitsui walked to Sendao and stretched out his hand: "It's not a compliment. Even if it's nationwide, your strength is upstream, but I'm stronger."

Xiandao smiled bitterly, is this considered comfort?

"Thank you, senior." Holding Mitsui's hand, Sendo bowed respectfully 90 degrees. "Thanks to senior, I have seen the gap with top players, and I will work harder in the future."

"Come on! I hope Lingnan will not be divided into Xiangbei this year. I really hope to see Lingnan reach the semi-finals of the county." Mitsui Shou said with a smile.

"It's all up to the group." Sendao was helpless. If the prefecture competition was really divided into Xiangbei group, Lingnan would not be able to enter the semi-finals this year. This was obviously inconsistent with the early expectations of Sendao. He came to Kanagawa, but in order to lead Ryunan to the national competition, if he couldn't even enter the semi-finals, that would be a huge joke.

After the practice match with Lingnan, Xiangbei did not relax the training and continued to train meticulously and strictly follow the requirements every day. What made Mitsui happy is that in addition to the usual training, Ah Shen, Miyagi and Imamura stayed to practice more every day. They would not stop until night. In other words, under such almost rigorous training, the strength of these three players was also the fastest improvement in the entire Xiangbei team. This year's grouping also resulted soon. What made Mitsui happy was that Lingnan was not in the same group as Xiangbei. He did not meet Hainan and Xiangyang, but the most powerful Buri.

Even so, Wuli's strength is just the same as Lingnan. After all, Wuli's third-grade players are still there this year. There are also two star players, and they are very strong. Therefore, if Lingnan wants to enter the semi-finals of the county, it will probably take some hard work.

"Get out of the way! My old man is not going to work!" It was Sunday. When Mitsui Masato was dating Ayako, he suddenly heard a hysterical roar from the alley ahead.

"Senior, what should I do?" Ayako asked nervously, grabbing Mitsui Shou's clothes.

"You go back first! I'll go over and take a look." When Mitsui heard the familiar sentence just now, a red-haired figure appeared in his mind. He guessed what was going on, so he said to Aiko and ran into the alley quickly.

"Senior!" Aiko was not assured that she would leave alone, but she didn't dare to go there. After a fierce psychological struggle, Aiko finally gritted her teeth and quickly chased after her. When she arrived at the scene, she saw Mitsui Shou like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, knocking over seven or eight high school students in three punches and two kicks. At this time, there was a tall red-haired boy who solved the last person and hurriedly said, "My old man is not good, please call an ambulance for me?"

Seeing the big boy whose tears were almost flowing out, Mitsui Shou sighed in his heart and said, "Don't worry, this place is not far from the hospital, it's too late for the ambulance..." Turning his head to look at Aiko: "Aiko, go and call a taxi immediately, this kid and I will carry the person out."

"Oh? OK." Ayako also knew that the matter was urgent and went to stop the car without any delay. Mitsui also walked into a rather old house led by Honghai. When Mitsui saw the middle-aged man lying on the ground with his heart covering his heart, he knew that the middle-aged man had a heart attack and the medical skills in his mind still existed. Mitsui immediately conducted emergency treatment, then demolished a tatami, carried the middle-aged man out with Honghai, and sent it to the taxi that Ayako called, and rushed to the hospital.

When he arrived at the hospital, after timely rescue, the middle-aged man was finally out of danger. The big red-haired boy finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he knelt down in front of Mitsui, and Bangbang kowtowed three times: "Thank you for saving my old man."

"Don't do this." Mitsui pulled up red hair and asked, "I don't know what your name is yet to be done?"

"Oh, my name is Sakuragi Hanamichi, I am in the third grade of junior high school." Sakuragi Hanamichi said.

It was indeed him.

Mitsui nodded secretly and smiled, "Sakuragi, I see that you are tall and physically good. You are a good seedling for playing basketball. Do you want to learn how to play basketball with me?"

"Basketball? What is that?" Sakuragi is still a basketball novice and knows nothing.

"Basketball..." Mitsui touched her chin and said, "I can't explain it clearly in a few words. This is how it is. My name is Mitsui Shou. I am the captain of the Xiangbei High School basketball team. We will have a Xiangbei game next week. You can come to see our game. After watching it with your own eyes, you will know what basketball is. Believe me, you are definitely a genius who plays basketball."

"Genius?" Sakuragi immediately touched the back of her head, smiling and grinned at the back of her ears: "Where is it? Okay! Since Brother Mitsui said that, I will definitely go to watch the game live next week."

"Then it's decided." Mitsui patted Sakuragi on the shoulder and said, "I will temporarily help you with your father's treatment and hospitalization fees. I will pay it back slowly after your father is discharged from the hospital."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Mitsui!" Hanamichi Sakuragi said gratefully. He was really grateful. He did not have relatives or friends, but he did so much for him, which saved his father's life. Hanamichi Sakuragi is a single cell, but he knows gratitude the most. In his heart, Sakuragi Sakuragi has become the person he respects the most in the world.

"Senior, let's go!" said Ayako, who had been by Mitsui.

"Yes." Mitsui nodded and said to Sakuragi: "Sakuragi, see you next week."

"Brother Mitsui walk slowly." Hanamichi Sakuragi sent Mitsui and Ayako away.

When Mitsui and Ayako walked downstairs, they saw four middle school students of different heights, fatness and skinny rushing into the hospital and shouting: "Uncle Sakuragi won't be a problem, right? It's really hateful!"

"No, there will be no problem."

Turning his head and looking at the four middle school students, Mitsui smiled faintly and left the hospital with Ayako.

On the way back, Aiko couldn't help asking: "Senior, why are you so eager to that red-haired person? Is he really a basketball genius? But he obviously doesn't even know what basketball is."

Mitsui smiled slightly and said, "Whether it is a genius is not determined by how many years it has been playing basketball, but by talent. Sakuragi is tall, full of strength, flexibility and speed are unprecedented. He satisfies all the talents of a basketball player. If he trains well, his future achievements will not be lower than Sendo."

"Is Lingnan's immortal way?" Thinking of the very miserable Xiando Akira who was bullied by Mitsui on the court, Ayako couldn't help laughing: "That's the life that was bullied by her seniors!"

"There is no way. There is only one Mitsui Shou in the world." Mitsui said stinkyly.

"Senior is so arrogant."

"This is not arrogant, it is self-confidence."

Because Ayako loves Mitsui, and Mitsui is interested in Ayako, the two got quite close together in just over a month, but they haven't yet made it clear that their boyfriend and girlfriend relationships are together. After all, they have known each other too short, so who knows whether it's appropriate? If they break up after dating and they are both in the same club, how can they get along in the future?

So, both of them are satisfied with the current relationship and want to spend a while to see each other, so as not to be just a momentary popularity.

When it comes to relationships, the two are much more mature than their peers.

Before they knew it, a week passed. On this day, Hanaki Sakuragi came to the basketball hall with his four best friends, wanting to see with their own eyes what basketball is going on? But they just walked into the stadium and were frightened by the hot atmosphere on the scene.

"Misi Mitsui I love you! Mitsui Mitsui I love you!"

"The flame man Mitsui Shou is invincible in the world!"

"North Hunan Province is invincible! Dominate the whole country!"

"Wow!" Looking at the roaring sounds like a concert on site, Sakuragi and Mito Yohei were completely shocked: "Is this a basketball game? It's so lively!"

"No, I'm afraid most people cheer for one person." Mito Yohei was very calm. Seeing that the scene was basically shouting Mitsui's name, I remembered that the person who saved Sakuragi's father was also called Mitsui Shou, and I felt a little relieved.

After finally finding a seat in the stands, the Sakuragi Legion also saw a basketball game that he had never seen before. It was also the first time he had experienced the charm of basketball. Looking at Mitsui Shou on the court who was tragic like a god, listening to countless girls screaming Mitsui Shou's name in the stands, there seemed to be a flame burning on Hanamichi Sakuragi's chest.

"Is this basketball?" Seeing Mitsui Shou standing on the sidelines after the game, greeting the fans in the stands and attracting even more fanatical screams, Sakuragi Hanado stood up, and under the shocked eyes of Yohei Mito and shouting: "I want to play basketball!"

At the end of the game, when Xiangbei left the stadium, Mitsui was blocked by Sakuragi Hanao, and then knelt down on the spot and said, "Brother Mitsui, please tell me to play basketball!"

"..." All the players of Xiangbei team looked at Hanamichi Sakuragi like idiots. Only Coach Anxi saw the speed of Sakuragi running just now, as well as the flexibility of his figure and body. A gleam flashed through his eyes hidden behind the lens.

"Sakuragi, stand up first." Mitsui said.

"If Brother Mitsui doesn't accept me as his disciple, I won't get up!" Sakuragi's stubborn temper came up again.

Mitsui was angry and funny. If it were someone else, he would have kicked it long ago, but this is Sakuragi Hanamichi, the number one protagonist of Slam Dunk. No matter what, you can't waste this player with the best qualifications.

"Okay! If you can meet my requirements, I will accept you as your disciple." Mitsui said.

"Thank you, Brother Mitsui!" Seeing that Mitsui agreed to accept him, Sakuragi Hanamichi stood up happily. As for the so-called "request"? For the genius Sakuragi, is that still a problem? (To be continued)
