Juri Ueno from Kuroko's Basketball

Although it was a friendly match.

But everything is conducted according to the competition system.

Ten minutes into the game, the score is: Rakuzan vs. Dongda, 11:5.

Both sides played relatively conservatively.

Except for Ueno, almost all of Tokyo University's starters played.

On the Rakuzan side, only Reo Mibuchi and Kotaro Hayama started.

The other three are substitutes from the second team.

"This blond-haired kid is not simple!" Kamiya Ichi, who had been left behind by Hayama Kotaro, looked very unhappy and complained to Shin beside him. He was assigned to defend against this blond-haired kid, but the opponent's strength was somewhat beyond his expectations.

He gets the ball stolen as soon as he gets it, and even if he tries his best, he can't catch up with the opponent when they have the ball.

Looking at the arrogant smile on the other person's face, Shang Jingyi complained, "This blond-haired guy is really annoying."

Upon hearing this, Xin rolled his eyes at the other party and ignored Shang Jingyi.

Compared to this blond-haired kid, you yourself don't seem to be much better.

The side of the basketball court.

Coach Platinum from Los Angeles crossed his arms and calmly watched the players running back and forth on the basketball court. He then spoke to the assistant coach behind him who was constantly recording data.

"How's the data?"

Upon hearing this, the assistant coach glanced at the Tokyo University players on the basketball court, then at the data collection records he had made, pondered for a moment, and then spoke up: "Judging from Tokyo University's current performance, apart from their ace player Ueno Juri who is participating in youth training, there are only two people we need to pay attention to: Haizaki Shogo and that Yagami Osaka."

At this point, the teaching assistant frowned.

Because apart from Haizaki Shogo and Yagami Osaka, the stats of the other players from Tokyo University are arguably worse than even their second team.

"Tell me all the information you've gathered," Coach Platinum said calmly.

"Yes," the teaching assistant replied, and then recited the information he had collected one by one.

"Shogo Haizaki is an offensive player with excellent physical attributes and outstanding explosive power. His ability is somewhat similar to stealing other people's skills, or rather, depriving opponents of their abilities. It also seems to be able to disrupt the opponent's rhythm, making it a very troublesome ability."

"Miya Ryoichi has average physical attributes, average explosiveness, and average offensive ability. There's nothing particularly noteworthy about him."

"Yagami Osaka has excellent physical qualities and is a defensive player with a terrifying burst of power. He also has a keen sense of defense and is a player worth paying attention to."

"Gison Shin is average in all aspects, but he is good at ball control."

"Shangjingyi poses no threat."

"Don't underestimate anyone. Any carelessness could be the key to losing the game." Coach Platinum looked somewhat displeased. No matter how weak the opponent is, you can't discriminate against them.

When a lion fights a rabbit, he also uses all his strength.

No matter how much you may look down on someone on the surface, you must take them seriously in your heart.

"Yes, Coach Platinum."

The assistant coach nodded respectfully in response to the platinum coach's guidance.

the other side.

While universities in Rakusan were collecting information from the University of Tokyo, the University of Tokyo was also collecting information from them.

Holding her notebook, Saori listened to Coach Shinkawa's words, her right hand, which was holding the pen, paused involuntarily, and she asked incredulously, "Coach, is Rakuzan really that strong?"

Upon hearing this, Coach Xinhe's expression turned solemn. "The title of 'Emperors of the Pioneers' was not given by them, but earned by themselves. They swept the three major competitions for five consecutive years. This is not something that can be said."

"Besides, I might be wrong." Coach Xinhe looked at the blond kid from Luoshan High School with a somewhat unpleasant expression.

"Did you say something wrong?" Saori was taken aback, somewhat puzzled.

"The enemy may have three of the Five Generals without a Crown!"

"What? Three people?" Saori was a little shocked. During this time, she had gained a deeper understanding of basketball and knew what the Generation of Miracles and the Five Untitled Players represented.

She was quite shocked by this.

According to Coach Xinhe, the opposing team consists of a Miracle Era player and three players without titles.

It's simply ridiculously strong.

"Hmm." Although unwilling to admit it, Coach Xinhe nodded and pointed at the blond-haired boy. "This guy is Hayama Kotaro, known as the Thunder Beast of the Uncrowned Five Generals."

"Thunder Beast?" Saori's eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly looked in the direction Coach Shinkawa was pointing.

On the basketball court, Haizaki was facing off against a blond guy with a maniacal grin.

"It seems we need to find an assistant coach to collect information," Coach Xinhe said with a serious expression.

He handles everything inside and outside the basketball team.

Although having Saori, the basketball manager, running around helping him make things much easier.

But there are some things that he has to do himself, and Saori is a new manager who doesn't understand many things about basketball.

Therefore, they are always lagging behind in terms of intelligence.

This could be fatal.

Coach Xinhe plans to apply to the school leaders as soon as this friendly match ends.

Chapter 128 Three-Finger Dribbling!

Although Coach Xinhe is doing his best to handle everything, he is, after all, just one person, an elderly man.

Therefore, he is bound to make mistakes in many aspects.

On the basketball court.

Haizaki has already faced off against Kotaro Hayama, who is known as the Thunder Beast.

"Haha, you're pretty strong, much stronger than the others."

As Hayama Kotaro dribbled the ball, he excitedly watched Haizaki blocking his attack.

He felt that all the guys from Dongda University were weak, except for this gray-haired number fourteen.

If his coach hadn't told him not to use his full strength, he would have been tempted to give his opponent a good match.

Upon hearing this, Haizaki's eyes widened in shock, and a figure subconsciously surfaced in his mind. This figure ignited an unnamed rage within him. Looking at Hayama Kotaro, who was still laughing, he growled in a low voice, "You bastard, don't compare me to them. I'm not anyone's substitute!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Haizaki suddenly burst into speed, arriving next to Hayama Kotaro in one step. His ferocious eyes were fixed on his opponent, and his right hand, filled with anger, slammed hard onto the basketball.

"Oh!"

The speed was so fast that Kotaro Hayama didn't have time to react before the basketball was slapped away by Haizaki.

"The ball... the ball got knocked away?"

Stunned, Kotaro Hayama turned to look at the basketball still slowly rolling on the sidelines, completely dumbfounded.

He himself had his basketball stolen by the other player with a single slap.

"You're really too weak. What right do you have to compare yourself to others!"

A cold voice rang out from beside Kotaro Hayama.

Kotaro Hayama's eyes flickered, and he turned to look at Haizaki, who was staring at him with icy eyes.

"Haha, haha, hahaha."

Seeing Haizaki's disdainful look, Hayama Kotaro suddenly burst into laughter, covering his head with his hands.

Seeing Hayama Kotaro suddenly burst into laughter, Kamiya Ichiro, who was standing to the side, became curious and leaned close to Shin to ask in a low voice, "Did Haizaki knock his brains out?"

"I don't know, but it doesn't seem like it." Shin looked at Hayama Kotaro, who was laughing uncontrollably, and he had a bad feeling.

Meanwhile, Reo Mibuchi, who knew Kotaro Hayama best, frowned slightly.

He glanced at Coach Platinum, who was also frowning, and walked over to Kotaro Hayama.

"Hayama, remember what the coach said."

"Sister Lingyang, I feel like my blood is boiling."

Without looking at Reo Mibuchi, Kotaro Hayama simply stared excitedly at his own hands.

"You guy."

Upon hearing this, and seeing Kotaro Hayama's expression, Reo Mibuchi knew that the other man's competitive spirit had been aroused again.

This guy is still so naive and innocent; he'll fall for any provocation from his opponent.

If this guy hadn't bothered Coach Platinum time and time again, Coach Platinum would never have let him play.

After all, this was just a friendly match, meant to test the strength of Tokyo University.

It doesn't necessarily mean you have to defeat your opponent.

But the current situation seems somewhat out of control, yet also somewhat in line with common sense.

"You've really got me excited," Hayama Kotaro said excitedly, looking at Haizaki.

"Are you even listening to me?" Before Haizaki could say anything, Reo Mibuchi's forehead was already bulging with veins.
