Rebirth of Akutsu, dominating the Black Basketball Team

Chapter 14: Teppei Kiyoshi
However, Coach Hengshan did not start arranging training immediately, but first conducted professional physical tests on Akutsu and others.

Compared with the physical tests of the basketball team, the physical tests conducted by Hengshan coaches are undoubtedly more professional and more meticulous.

"Your physical data is quite good among junior high school students. Even some high school players don't have the physical fitness like you."

After a series of tests, Coach Hengshan was unsurprisingly shocked when he saw the physical test data of Akutsu and others.

Originally, Coach Hengshan agreed to come and play with the junior high school kids because of the money and the Akashi family's reputation.

At this time, he changed his mind and he really became interested in this training.

So, after taking the physical test data of Akutsu and others, Coach Yokoyama began to formulate the training content.

First, do four sets of ten barbell arm curls.

According to the different results of physical tests, Hengshan coach also selected different weights for each person.

Next is the barbell single-arm curl, also four sets of ten reps each.

Then it was four sets of barbell double arm raises, seven sets of combination machines, and five sets on the rowing machine.

Finish with three sets of barbell weighted squats and seven sets of seated weighted calf curls.

When seeing such a detailed training plan, everyone felt that the days ahead would definitely be difficult.

Looking at their respective plans, Murasakibara was undoubtedly the most important among them, Akashi was the lightest, and Akutsu, Aomine, and Midorima were about the same.

Then several people began to train. It must be said that the Akashi family was indeed rich. Even though it was a seldom-used villa, it had very complete configurations and facilities, and it had all the training equipment that Akutsu and others needed.

Next, Akutsu and others began their formal training life.

Although the high-intensity training squeezes out every bit of my physical strength every day, my young body is indeed full of potential. After a good night's sleep, I'll be full of energy the next day.

In this way, Akutsu and others began their first period of rapid growth.

In the past, everyone basically relied on their talent to play, especially Murasakibara Atsushi, who basically had no proper training.

Those who train seriously, such as Midorima, Aomine, etc., are only training according to their own understanding and their own way, and they are definitely not comparable to professional coaches.

After these ten days of joint training, everyone can be said to have been reborn.

In order to suppress everyone's arrogance and complacency, Akashi led everyone to challenge a team composed of five former national players on the last day of the training.

As expected, Akutsu and his men suffered a crushing defeat.

Although there is some gap in strength between Akutsu and others, the difference is actually not that big. The key lies in the gap in experience and cooperation between the team members.

The other team was experienced and through cooperation they were able to achieve the effect of 1+1>2.

On the other hand, Akutsu and others were restricted and could not display their respective strengths.

For example, if Midorima is very good at outside shooting, the opponent will send people to closely guard him, making it impossible for Midorima to even receive the ball.

Akashi was suppressed by his height, and Akatsuki and Aomine also had physical problems due to their irrational defense.

As for Murasakibara under the basket, he never got tired of the constant fake moves and foul calls.

After all, playing basketball is not just about physical fitness; technique, brains, mentality, spirit, etc. are all essential.

After a training match, several people who had become complacent due to the training camp calmed down.

In July, the knockout stage of the All-China League began, and it was also the time for the Akutsu family to pay rent.

The remaining money at home and the money earned by Yuuki and Akutsu were enough to pay the rent for the next three months. However, according to Yuuki, the landlord took the initiative to reduce the rent by half for some reason, which made the cash-strapped Akutsu family much more comfortable.

And there is more good news. The school has also issued some incentive measures. As long as the team wins the All-China League, the funding for the basketball department will increase again.

Among them, the school also has additional rewards for the main members who win the championship.

Akutsu didn't care about anything else, but he was tempted by the fact that his tuition for the next semester would be waived after winning the championship.

Therefore, at the beginning of the knockout round, Akutsu was full of energy and showed all his strength.

Under his leadership, Qingfeng also became very active.

Under the fierce bombardment of the two, the first opponent in the elimination match quickly collapsed, and Teiko Junior High School easily entered the quarterfinals.

The next opponent is Toyama Junior High School, last year’s runner-up team. Last year, Teiko Junior High School was blocked by Toyama and missed the finals.

Of course, the ones who are nervous now are Toyama Junior High School, mainly because Teiko’s record of advancing all the way is too brutal.

There was not a single game in which the score was less than 30, while the opponents' score was rarely over .

Thanks to the training proposed by Akutsu, the strength of several people in the original work is much stronger than that of the same period.

Because July 7th is the Sea Festival in the Land of Cherry Blossoms, and the 15th is the end of the semester and the summer vacation, the schedule of the elimination rounds is still relatively concentrated.

The semi-final match will be against Toyama Junior High School on July 7th, and the final will be held three days later on the 8th.

It is worth mentioning that in the match against Toyama Junior High School, Akutsu met a guy named Kiyoshi Teppei.

During the game, he caused some trouble to Murasakibara. This was the first time that Akutsu saw a player who could compete with Murasakibara under the basket.

In the end, under the leadership of Teppei Kiyoshi, Toyama Junior High School became the first team to score more than 50 points against Teiko Junior High School.

Among them, most of the points were scored thanks to Muji Tieping under the basket. His rich basketball experience helped him find many opportunities.

This also made Murasakibara appear a little impatient for the first time in the game.

In the past, Murasakibara could easily defeat the guys she met, but Muji was different. No matter how many points Murasakibara scored on him, no matter how many times Murasakibara dunked on him.

Next time, Muji will still attack the basket guarded by Murasakibara.

"I still can't understand the feelings of people who try their best even though it's impossible to win!"

Looking at Kiyoshi Teppei rushing towards him, Murasakibara's face was filled with anger, and then he pressed the basketball hard on the backboard.

Nailboard hat!

This is what Murasakibara learned during the training camp. When blocking a shot, it is not necessary to fan the basketball away. Controlling the ball is more important.

"Although I said that winning or losing doesn't matter, don't get me wrong. I have absolutely no intention of losing!"

As he spoke, Muji exerted his strength and pushed the basketball that Murasakibara had pressed against the backboard towards the basket.

"Damn it! Be careful or I'll crush you to pieces!"

Seeing Kiyoshi Teppei struggling hard, Murasakibara Atsushi felt furious.

What he hates most is people who have no talent but pretend to be working hard.
