Chapter 254: Ryonan vs. Hakata: Opening
As the referee blew the whistle, the game ended. The Sanwang players looked calm, as if they had accomplished something insignificant. However, the Green Wind players, except for Mike and Rukawa Kaede, were already in tears.
"Everyone performed very well, I am very satisfied, you still have a future, we will come again next year" Coach Dachuan comforted his players
"You're pretty good, keep it up" Zebei walked towards Rukawa Kaede
"I will definitely defeat you"
"Okay, but I'm planning to go to the United States. I don't know if I'll have the chance to meet you again in the future."
"If you want to go to the United States, I can go too, and our school can operate"
"You? Let me advise you to practice well before you go. Last year, I went to the United States with my school to play against American high school students. I was defeated miserably. After returning from the United States, I have been practicing hard. As for you, to be frank, I, a freshman in high school, can beat you. Your strength is simply not enough to survive in the United States. You should practice well. To be honest, your basic skills are not that good. You should hone your skills in China for a while." As a person who has experienced it, Zebei gave Rukawa Kaede a piece of advice.
"Okay..." Rukawa nodded heavily. Maybe if someone else said something like Zebei, Rukawa would not care, but when this sentence came out of Zebei's mouth, it had a different meaning. "I will practice hard, and I will defeat you again when I go to America in the future." Rukawa made a decision secretly.
"Midori Wind lost, I wonder how Ryonan is doing," said Mitsui.
"Ryonan's match is not easy to play. Hakata Corporation is also very strong. You, Xiangbei, also experienced this last year."
"Seniors, aren't you going to watch our Ryonan game?" asked Hikoichi Aida
"I'm sorry, Hikoichi, our games are all in the afternoon, and we have to practice, otherwise we might not be in good shape before the game." Murasaki expressed his apology, and Amu nodded to show that he had the same idea as Murasaki.
"Well, I'll go back first. Seniors from Xiangbei and Hainan, come on, do your best in the afternoon game."
"Well, you guys in Ryonan should also do your best. By the way, I have a small suggestion. When dealing with a defensive team like Hakata Corporation, you need some unreasonable attacks when the game is deadlocked. That is to say, use your personal ability to tear through Hakata Corporation's defense. You can't play against them as a whole. Do you understand, Hikoichi?" Mugure remembered the god-like performance of Sendo in the last stage of the last battle of the county tournament in the original work. If it weren't for the protagonist's halo, Xiangbei might have been gone.
"Murogure-senpai, do you mean that if we want to defeat Hakata Corporation, Sendoh-senpai must perform well, and the kind of performance that overrides the team's offense?" asked Aida Hikoichi.
"Yes, please tell this to Coach Tanaka. Whether we can defeat Hakata depends on Sendoh's performance." Mugure nodded.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it. I'll definitely tell the coach." Aida Yan nodded slightly and turned to leave

"Although Ryonan is only the fourth place in Kanagawa and made it to the national competition through the play-offs, the fact that they were able to defeat Changcheng and stand out from the group stage has proven that Ryonan's strength should not be underestimated. So everyone should not underestimate the enemy, and you must be 100% focused from the start to deal with this game, do you understand? Elzac, you have been hidden for so long, it's time for you to play," said Coach Kanai of Hakata Corporation.
"Ok, I've been waiting for a long time." A white player is ready to go. Elzak, a Russian, came to Japan in the second half of his sophomore year. In the group stage, he was hidden as a secret weapon because the opponent was not strong.
Ryonan locker room
"Although Hakata Corporation was the third in the last session and eliminated Shohoku last year, we Ryonan are not weak either. First of all, I would like to thank you and admire you. I know that my training volume is very large, but you all persevered. Reaching the knockout stage is the best reward for your efforts. In fact, when I was a player, I also made it to the national competition list, and my best result was the top 16. I hope you can surpass me. This will be my pride." Shigeru Tanaka paused and continued to arrange tactics. "Sendoh, your task is to cooperate with Miyagi to connect the team's offense... Do you understand?"
"Yes, coach"
"Ryonan players, the game is about to start, please enter the venue," the staff came to remind
"Let's go!" Yu Zhu led the team out of the locker room, and the audience cheered "Ryonan Ryonan! Brave and courageous!" The Ryonan fans who were present saw the Ryonan players enter the field and cheered for the team. Then Boda Shang walked into the field, and they also won the cheers of their own fans. The players of both sides entered the field to warm up.
"Boom!" Yu Zhu took the lead with a powerful dunk, which made the basket buzz loudly, causing the audience to exclaim "What a great power, so high!"
"Boom!" The same sound was heard again.
"Hmm? Who is that person? He looks about the same height as Yuzhu. Why does he look unfamiliar? He's a foreigner." The dunker from Hakata also caught Tanaka's attention.
Both sides finished warming up and the game began
陵南身着蓝色球衣：首发阵容：中锋4号鱼柱纯202cm大前锋13号南乡洸一郎192cm小前锋7号仙道彰190cm得分后卫6号伍代友和180cm控球后卫8号宫城良田168cm

As the ball in the referee's hand flew into the air, Yuzhu and Elzak shouted at the same time and jumped up to hit the ball! "Snap!!" Both of them pressed their hands on both sides of the ball at the same time! "Ha!!" Elzak took advantage of his greater strength than the opponent and hit the ball to the opponent's half! Xiaolu Sanmaru got the ball and was about to pass it, "Snap!" Miyagi was quick to grab the ball in his hands "Quick break!!" Nango and Sendoh rushed towards Hakata's half like two arrows! Although Miyagi accidentally intercepted the ball, Hakata Shang's reaction was not slow. Hirai and Hyono followed closely behind, trying to intercept Nango and Sendoh
"Miyagi, you stole my ball, I'm going to stop you!" Xiaolu Sanmaru chased back quickly
Miyagi, who had already made it to the free throw line, saw Xiaolu Sanmaru chasing him, and swung the ball back with his right hand. The ball flew past Xiaolu and flew to the right three-point line at about 45 degrees! "Good pass, Miyagi!" It was Wudai who received the ball. Wudai easily caught the ball and jumped up to shoot. His movements were very smooth, as if he had practiced beforehand! There was no pause from receiving the ball to jumping up and shooting! After landing, Wudai didn't even look at the basket and just clenched his fist and waved his hand fiercely!
"Shua!" The friction between the basketball and the basket made a wonderful sound! 3:0, Ryonan took the lead!
"So amazing! That No. 8 player is so fast that I didn't even see how he stole the ball from Xiaolu. The No. 6 player's three-pointer is also very stable. The Ryonan team doesn't look weak. They gave us a warning at the beginning!!" The Bodo players off the court were discussing.
However, although Ryonan took the lead, Hakata Commercial was a team that had seen big games before and was not affected! "The game has just started, let's score a goal first!" Xiaolu said loudly while dribbling slowly! When he reached the three-point line, he winked at the inside player and raised the ball. "Want to shoot a three-pointer?" Miyagi rushed over, but saw Xiaolu shoot a ball with a very high arc, passing over his palm.
"High throw three-pointer, protect the rebound!" Miyagi roared.
"Oh no, it's an aerial relay." Sendoh was watching the trajectory of the ball and suddenly noticed a person running towards the basket. He found out something and hurriedly shouted to remind him, but he realized it was too late. A figure caught the ball in the air and slammed it into the basket! 3:2, Bodo Commercial responded with a wonderful aerial relay, and the scorer was the white center Elzak!
"It doesn't matter, we'll score a goal." Miyagi dribbled the ball across the front court and suddenly gestured in front of Xiaolu.
Xiaolu couldn't help but turn his head and look behind him. "This is the third best guard in the country. How easy to fool!" Miyagi suddenly accelerated and rushed into the inside. "What?" Just as Miyagi rushed in, the ball in his hand was flicked.
"Good steal, Xiaolu!" Gennosuke next to him got the ball and passed it directly to Xiaolu, who dribbled forward
"Asshole, don't underestimate me" Miyagi, who was intercepted, chased back angrily "This number 8 is so fast" Hakata Sho's substitute players were amazed at Miyagi's speed
"You are indeed fast, but I won't race with you." Xiaolu noticed Miyagi with his peripheral vision and suddenly passed the ball to the right. A figure caught the ball and shot a three-pointer from the outside. The ball hit the target steadily and the score was 5:3. Hakata Merchants took the lead.
