Shortly after the second half began, Xiangbei successfully shortened the score to single digits with one attack and one defense, and Xiangbei's two newcomers can be seen to have caused considerable trouble to Ryonan's ace player Sendoh Akira.

Ryonan Sendoh then controlled the ball, but when he tricked Akagi into passing the ball to Yuzumi, Akagi had already been prepared, and Yuzumi's direct two-step dunk was blocked by Akagi, but Akagi's eyebrow was also cut by Yuzumi's nails, and blood flowed from Akagi's eyebrow.

When the Xiangbei basketball team was catching up, Akagi was "slightly injured" and left the front line! He was replaced by the second-year Kakuta (Emperor).

Under the strong request of Coach Anzai and the strong convergence of the world line, Akagi Takenori was pressed to the rest area after emergency treatment. For the next game, Coach Anzai only said one sentence:

"Remember the tactics of the team training game! Then the defense of the restricted area will be handed over to you, Hanamichi."

The tactics of the team training game that Coach Anzai mentioned were the "one star four shots" tactics that Hanamichi had a sudden inspiration and applied.

At present, Coach Anzai may also want to verify whether the practical value of this set of tactics has real significance, so he also took advantage of this internal practice match to experiment. As expected of Coach Anzai, he almost got rid of all the wool of the Ryonan team.

Xiangbei's tactical adjustment soon gave Ryonan a big surprise, with Hanamichi defending in the restricted area, Rukawa Kaede controlling the ball, and four shooters firing together on the outside.

4 minutes later, the score on the field was 38:36.

The Xiangbei basketball team played a small climax of 13:4 with the change of tactics.

With Hanamichi's own system, "Wandering in the restricted area", fully activated, Hanamichi scored 4 points, 3 assists, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks in the second half after captain Takenori Akagi left the court, which completely shocked Yuzumi of the Ryonan team.

Yuzumi was stunned to see Hanamichi constantly jumping in front of him, constantly grabbing rebounds, and occasionally scoring a second time under the basket or passing the ball to assist his teammates in scoring.

"How can there be such a person!"

Ayako said:

"The amazing speed and jumping ability of Hanamichi even frightened Yuzumi of the Ryonan basketball team. It's amazing!"

Coach Anzai added silently without knowing the meaning:

"His rebounding skills are first-class even in the whole country!"

"Senior Yuzumi, it's time to return to defense."

Sendoh woke up Yuzumi who was in a daze under the basket, and then raised his index finger to his teammates and said slowly:

"Don't panic, there is still plenty of time, we are still in the lead, everyone cheer up and score a goal first."

Handamichi knew that as long as he could stop Sendoh's score, the Ryonan team would be doomed.

So while Sendoh was attacking the penalty area, he directly seized the opportunity and double-teamed Sendoh with Rukawa Kaede when he was about to attack the basket.

"Double-team, Hanamichi's timing of movement is really beautiful!"

Takehiko Akagi shouted silently in his heart. Sendoh had not thought of this, but the passing line had been completely blocked by Hanamichi and Rukawa, and he was in the restricted area, so he forced his arms to straighten and jump for a layup.

Although Sendoh's shot was not blocked by Hanamichi and Rukawa, the two tight defenders still put great pressure on Sendoh. The ball circled around the basket and fell mischievously.

So Yuzumi, Sendoh, Hanamichi, and Rukawa started an aerial battle around the rebound in the restricted area.

"Ryonan team's Yuzumi and Sendoh are 202cm and 190cm tall respectively; Hanamichi and Rukawa are 191.5cm and 187cm tall respectively. They are at a disadvantage in height.

Come on, Hanamichi, Rukawa!"

The point where the basketball landed was closest to Sendoh and Hanamichi.

But the big guy behind Hanamichi, Jun Yuzumi, squeezed Hanamichi's jumping space intentionally or unintentionally.

In the first jump ball, although Hanamichi was in a more advantageous position, his actual jump was disturbed and he did not jump fully, so Hanamichi had to struggle to use his fingers to touch the ball again.

The basketball flew into the air for the second time, and Yuzumi, one of the four people who landed, fell heavily on the ground and did not jump quickly for the second time. Next was the competition between Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede, and Sendoh.

The three of them jumped at the same time and touched the bottom of the basketball at the same time. After the three landed, Hanamichi reacted the fastest and started a 1-on-1 rebounding competition with Yuzumi who did not jump in the previous round.

In the end, Hanamichi overpowered Yuzumi and grabbed the rebound with one hand. Before landing, he threw the basketball to Kogure Konobu outside the three-point line.

Kogure Konobu quickly ran to the opponent's half after receiving the ball:"A layup at this time will only tie the game. If I can score a three-pointer at this time..."

The usually kind-hearted vice-captain of the Xiangbei basketball team, Mugure, also showed his "nuclear kindness" on the court. After dribbling to the three-point line, he made a three-pointer to help Xiangbei surpass Ryonan.

The scene was boiling. Akagi stood up excitedly and high-fived Mugure:

"Beautiful shot, Mugure!"

At this time, a man in a judo uniform suddenly appeared beside the Sakuragi Army and Akagi Haruko, touching his chin and muttering to himself:

"Well, with this spirit of not admitting defeat, Mugure should be the most suitable person to join our judo club!"

Aota Ryuhiko! Akagi's best friend since childhood, a strong competitor for the national dominance, patted the second-floor railing and shouted:

"Come on, Xiangbei!"

"Beep! The Ryonan team requests a timeout"...

Ryonan head coach Tian Gangmaoichi was sitting in the rest area and yelled angrily to the basketball players:

"What are you doing? Do you want to lose to the two freshmen of the Xiangbei team? Yuzumi!"

Yuzumi stood up reflexively and answered: "Yes!"

"Although you suppressed Akagi, you were suppressed by the freshman Hanamichi. I really can't stand it. "I'm so sorry!"

Yuzumi was about to speak, but Sendoh, who was sitting on a chair, said lazily:

"But the strength of the Xiangbei team is really extraordinary! The strength of the Xiangbei team with Takenori Akagi alone is enough to rival the strength of the top eight teams in the county. With the addition of Rukawa Kaede and Hanamichi, I really didn't expect that Xiangbei would be so difficult this year.

Even if they accidentally lost to the Xiangbei basketball team, it would be excusable!"

Tian Gang Maoyi expressed deep helplessness about Sendoh's behavior of boosting others' ambitions and destroying his own prestige, but he couldn't think of a rebuttal for a while.

After all, judging from the strength on paper, Xiangbei is indeed not easy to deal with, so he called out an unexpected name:

"Oda! In the next few minutes, we need to strengthen our offensive firepower. Although it was beyond my expectation to expose you in the practice match, but... please help the team win!"

"No problem, coach! I can't wait!"

A young man with middle-parted hair and about the same height as Rukawa Kaede stood up from the back. This man was wearing Ryonan's No. 14 jersey. He was this year's freshman Oda Ryumasa.

It turned out that after Hanamichi rejected the recruitment of coach Tian Gang, he came to "recommend Oda before leaving."

So the original plot was to join the Takezo High School basketball team. Oda Ryumasa, who magically came to Ryonan High School with a full scholarship and exemption from examination.

"Hanamichi, I'm so happy to see you perform so energetically on the court!"

Outside the rest area on the other side, a cute girl with long hair greeted Mito Yohei and others:

"Hi! Yohei! You guys are still the same."

Looking at Shimamura Ye Zi wearing the school uniform of Ryonan High School, the Sakuragi Army and others reacted.

"You are Ye Zi? You actually studied at Ryonan High School! What about Oda?"

Ye Zi said embarrassedly:

"Oda is also in Ryonan and joined the basketball team.

Fortunately, Ryonan's independent enrollment questions are too difficult, otherwise I might not be able to pass!"

After saying that, Ye Zi stuck out her tongue and looked relieved.

Then she quickly "chattered" with Akagi Haruko and others, and soon integrated into the group.

Mito Yohei expressed deep envy and speechlessness for Ye Zi's efforts to pursue Oda!

But: "So, Oda is on the Ryonan basketball team? Now Hanamichi is in trouble!"
