The long-awaited "Slam Dunk" is finally serialized.

Takasugi Kazuya was very excited.

This is "Slam Dunk" with endless climaxes for several months!

He saw Rukawa Kaede breaking through in adversity, saw Miyagi Ryota's wonderful performance, and saw Sakuragi Hanamichi dominating the basket.

Now it’s finally here, his favorite Mitsuo Hisaru’s special performance.

Just turning to the cover of "Slam Dunk" made him tremble with excitement.

"Mitsui, storm three-pointer!"

This once fallen player is finally getting a new lease of life!

And he has been looking forward to this scene for several months.

Fujima came on, Shohoku trailed by twelve points, and there were five minutes left on the clock.

The audience at the basketball stadium, as well as the players from King Hainan, all believed that Xiangyang's victory was determined.

Shohoku has been forced into a desperate situation, and Sakuragi Hanamichi, who committed four fouls, became timid for fear of being sent off.

So at this moment, Xiangbei is powerless.

Even Takasugi Kazuya couldn't help but feel anxious after reading the name in this chapter.

"Xiangbei is really difficult, the opponents are so strong."

This was just Shoyo, the top two player in Kanagawa. It was hard for him to imagine the strength of a strong team in the national competition.

How should Xiangbei defeat them?

…

Mitsui Shou was exhausted. He staggered when he walked and was covered in sweat.

He was dribbling the basketball, feeling unwilling to do so.

"Is this who I am now? Let the first-year students on the bench worry about me. Am I, Hisashi Mitsui, already so depressed?"

When he fell to the ground because a frontal throw was intercepted by Hasegawa, he struggled to get up and looked at the sweat on the floor. Mitsui Hisashi felt a familiar feeling.

It was the match between Takeishi Middle School and Hengtian Middle School. There were only twelve seconds left and he was still one point behind. He was already desperate.

At that time, because of the encouragement of coach Anxi, he gained confidence again and made a winning goal at the last second.

Thinking of this, Mitsui Shou smiled.

"Only in this case do I burst into flames."

He showed a confident look.

This look was the look Mitsui Hisashi had when he first joined Shohoku.

"Never give up until the end!"

…

Takasugi Kazuya's scalp was numb when he saw it. Under Tori Akino's exquisite painting skills, he really understood Mitsui's eyes.

The old man is finally back.

After experiencing degradation and unwillingness, at this moment, he was reborn from nirvana and realized the spirit of never giving up!

Even if you are exhausted physically and mentally and face a desperate situation, you still have high fighting spirit!

…

Mitsui made all three free throws.

In order to recover the score, Xiangbei adopted a full-court man-marking strategy that was very energy-consuming.

Regardless of the front or backcourt, a full-scale counterattack to defend and win the ball was launched.

Create more opportunities to take action.

So soon, Miyagi stopped playing basketball.

"Miyagi!"

Facing Mitsui's call, Miyagi, who was still thinking about how to score, decisively passed the basketball to Mitsui.

"How does Mitsui want to attack? Does he want to cut into the penalty area to disrupt the defense and let Akagi dunk?"

As soon as his thoughts came to an end, Mitsui took action.

The ball flew high, as if no time was wasted in taking aim.

In everyone's disbelief, this basketball actually scored a goal so easily!

The more desperate the situation is, the less strength he has, the more concentrated Mitsui Hisashi will be, exerting all his strength.

This all comes from his unwillingness.

"I won't lose, I will never lose."

"I can't lose here. How could the team I joined lose just after making it to the quarterfinals!"

He recalled the time when he was crazy.

Because he was jealous of Miyagi Ryota, he went to the stadium to find trouble and fight.

Fight against Miyagi Ryota.

A provocation against Rukawa Kaede.

The feud with Sakuragi Hanamichi.

"If I don't make a contribution here..."

This is repayment to the Xiangbei basketball team and also redemption for myself.

Facing the disappointed Akagi and Mumu Gongen, Mitsui was thinking:

"I will try my best to stand here..."

Fight side by side with them and fulfill the original promise.

"Because I'm just a big stubborn fool..."

Under the cheers of the entire audience, Mitsui Hisaru's heart burned more and more with fire.

He looked at Coach Anxi off the court.

Those were the words that he could finally say after he knelt down in front of Coach Anxi, like an aggrieved child, letting go of his defenses.

"Coach Anxi, I want to play basketball!"

The wastage and depravity of the past have become Mitsui's fuel.

He looks forward to winning more than anyone else!

His heart was beating violently, he was sweating profusely, and big beads of sweat were falling, but his heart was extremely determined and he had only one goal, which was to win!

Hisashi Mitsui was like a "man of fire", burning violently!

Even if it burns out and turns into ashes...

"I won't lose!"

I will never be willing to fail!

Fujima's attack was stopped by Miyagi, and Shohoku began to counterattack.

Miyagi came to the Xiangyang basket and quickly passed the ball to Mitsui under Fujima's interception.

Mitsui, who was inside the three-point line, took a step back under Hasegawa's sniper, jumped up from outside the three-point line, and shot quickly.

Seeing this scene, Coach Anxi was moved.

"Wow, what a beautiful pose."

Just like the emotion he expressed when he saw Mitsui Hisashi's shooting action when he was invited to watch the match between Takeishi and Yokotenaka.

Time went round and round, and finally returned to the past.

The ball was still flying in the air, and Mitsui had already made a confident fist.

This three-pointer was made without any suspense!

…

"What a wonderful statement!"

Takasugi Kazuya was very moved. Tori Akino's delicate description of Mitsui Hisashi's heart, coupled with the burning plot, was something he hadn't felt in a long time, moving his face from his scalp to his toes.

It was like being hit by an electric shock, leaving my mind numb and empty of enjoyment.

"This is a plot that will still be talked about by readers decades later." He firmly believes.

Just like the world's best martial arts tournament in "Dragon Ball";

In "Yu Yu Hakusho", the main battle between Urameshi Yusuke and Toguro;

In "Ultraman Tiga", Tiga was defeated in the battle with the second generation of Kirialodians and was resurrected by the light of people.

All of them are the wonderful core of the comics, and they are unforgettable and profound contents.

…

"The more desperate the situation, the more confident Mitsui Hisashi becomes?"

Kanda Taketo looked at the comics and remembered the game he lost to Sports University last year.

It was a brutal game. Facing the Sports University, they were no match at all.

Lost without any doubt.

At that time, what I was thinking was...

"End it quickly!"

Such a shameful thought.

"I..." he murmured to himself, "Not only my strength, my heart still hasn't grown?"
