white king of black basket

About 3 weeks after the end of the street ball tournament, along with the end of the small semester quiz, most of the students’ classes for this semester have also come to an end!

But… For the players of White Mountain, the real struggle has only begun now!

Because just one week after the end of the semester, the 16 domestic teams selected from the qualifiers will be divided into two groups for a fierce knockout competition!

At the end, the teams that stand out from the two groups will represent their teams in the final round!

On this day, Sogo and the others also came to Tokyo again to participate in the draw of specific opponents for the competition.

“.. So why do I have to go? Isn’t it just necessary for the coach and captain to go as representatives? “Seeing the ‘group of beasts’ who cheered away after Masao Hiro Hiro announced his dissolution in the hotel, Sogo could only smile bitterly.

“I can’t help it—who knew that the draw ceremony would be held earlier, and the weather went wrong, causing Rei Yang to be stuck in Osaka now?”

“… Boom! After hearing this, Sogo spat in a silent manner, and then after comparing the gap in combat effectiveness between himself and Hiro Masao’s bear-like physique, he wisely gave up the plan to forcibly escape – after all, he is a junior high school student, even a ‘perfect body’ can’t let him compare with this kind of guy!

And he himself knows that this kind of drawing ceremony actually requires sending the most famous players and coaches in his team to a large extent – this strange unspoken rule is common practice, so there is nothing Sogo can do himself!

After all, the person who will draw lots on the stage at that time will be the players – just imagine, if the player on one side goes up to the ace Daiki Aomi with a cold face, and on the other side goes up to the smirk Shinjiro Sasaki…

Gee, the picture is so beautiful!

“Ah cut!” Shinjiro, who was outside and was ready to continue his previous tour, suddenly sneezed.

In short, in the midst of such and such a tangle… Sogo eventually followed Masao Hiro to the venue of the draw, the venue for the final, Tokyo Stadium.

When entering this atmospheric sports field, the number of school representatives who came to the stadium was already quite large.

As the ‘old man’ who has led Hakusan to participate in the All-China League twice, Hirono Masao has naturally dealt with most of them, so there are many people who come forward to greet him for a while – they are enemies in the arena, but it is not uncommon for them to have a good relationship with each other under the arena.

Sogo, on the other hand, was huddled in the back the whole time, yawning idly, and observing the players around him who accompanied the coach.

“Hello!” And when he was idle and bored, a gentle and clear voice suddenly came from his side.

“… Well? When Sogo turned his head, he saw a very tall guy standing in front of him!

With healthy short hair and a tall figure, this person with a very large palm has a pair of sword eyebrows, but his facial contours are unexpectedly soft!

But Sogo can clearly feel that this guy is a guy, at least in terms of the sense of oppression and the sense of momentum given to him, at least an opponent who is somewhat threatening to him!

On his body, he was wearing the number 4 shirt, and the word ‘Zhaorong’ was written on it.

… Wait a minute, Teruei’s words.

“Are you ‘Iron Heart’ Muyoshi Teppei?” Sogo suddenly realized – if you want to talk about people who can bring a sense of danger to themselves, then only this iron heart that also belongs to one of the ‘five generals’, right?

“… Huh? Do you know me? After hearing Sogo’s inquiry, Muji pointed to himself with some surprise, and the smile on his face was a little… Natural.

This kind of big tall? Natural stay?

Even Sogo himself couldn’t help but be surprised by this sudden thought in his heart.

“… Well, I’ve heard of you—but are you looking for me for something? ”

Sogo looked at each other with some curiosity – he didn’t remember what he had crossed paths with each other.

“That word…” And Muji smiled cheerfully without hesitation after hearing this!

“I’ve seen your game – you’re awesome!”

“So I’m looking forward to fighting you!”

… So is this guy provoking now?

Sogo looked at this big man with a cheerful smile, but he didn’t see the slightest malice in the other person’s face – obviously… This guy is just honestly relaying his inner thoughts.

“… Well, I’m looking forward to it too. ”

And helplessly, he can only answer like this!

“Oh!! It’s really a fighting opponent…”and Muji grinned and stretched out his fist towards Sogo.

“Since everyone likes basketball, there must be a wonderful game at that time!”

“… Oh”

And after Sogo curled up and punched him, the famous ace player also smiled and said directly, ‘Then I’m leaving, Sogo-kun’ and then walked away with his own care…

“What… This man! ”

Sogo, on the other hand, looked at his fist speechlessly, and for a while was speechless for this guy whose words and deeds were completely out of line.

According to the large groupings that have been determined, Hakushan, who won by all, and Zhaorong, who appeared with one defeat, should be divided into different groups.

That is, if they were to meet… It has to be in the final!

However, having said that…

“Not annoying, is it?” And when Sogo looked complicated, Masao Hirono didn’t know when he ended his pleasantries with the other coaches and came to his side and said with a smile.

“Oh so… Although you are indeed a very good player, you have to know…” Masao Hirono looked at Muyoshi Teppei, who began to ‘make trouble’ at Kotaro Hayama, from a distance, and his words seemed to have sighs and gratification.

“There are so many people who love basketball!”

Between words, the meaning of the prompt is obvious – you are strong in the ‘flowering’ stage, but please don’t forget the original love of basketball!

Because loneliness and strength itself… It is the fierce poison that eats the heart!

“… Well! Sogo chuckled after hearing this.

“I know, coach!” _
