NBA: This flower path is a bit strong.

"Beep", the game resumes and the Hainan team serves.

Because Kazuma Takasago of the Hainan team was a little distracted after seeing Hanamichi return to the court, he did not notice the presence of Rukawa when serving.

So, the serve was intercepted, and then Rukawa made a mid-range shot and Xiangbei scored two points.

Hainan then continued its offensive, and with a forced breakthrough pass from Maki Shinichi, Kiyota Nobunaga scored a layup under the basket.

After scoring, Kiyota Nobunaga was very proud and said to Amu who was seriously returning to defense:

"Amu, even if we don't use all our strength to attack Xiangbei's restricted area, we can easily win."

It turned out that after seeing Hanamichi playing with an injury, the Hainan team's coach Gaotou ordered all the Hainan team members to attack the Xiangbei penalty area.

After all, at this time in the Xiangbei penalty area, one player had committed many fouls and the other was injured. If they didn't attack now, when would they attack?

Maki Shinichi said to Kiyota Nobunaga sternly:

"Since you are a regular player of the Hainan team, don't say such naive words! As a winning team, what we have to do is to win at all costs!" (Shinichi Maki was also tripped in last year's Autumn National Games)

After being taught a lesson, Kiyota Nobunaga felt a sense of sacred mission, and then passed the ball to Kazuma Takasago in the interior, but was intercepted by (Sakuragi) Hanamichi.

"Ah? Judging from his movements, he doesn't look like an injured person!" ~Wild Monkey.

"Silly boy, don't you understand that I, the genius Sakuragi Hanamichi, am immortal? Hainan!" ~Red-haired monkey.

Then Sakuragi Hanamichi made a long quarterback pass and gave the ball directly to Rukawa Kaede who was on a fast break.

At this time, Rukawa received the ball leisurely from under the Hainan basket and jumped up calmly for a slam dunk.

In 4 seconds, Xiangbei scored another 2 points.

At this moment, the score on the court was 32:30, and Xiangbei took the lead again.

The audience was all dumbfounded watching Xiangbei's counterattack this time. It was so simple and clear, especially the combination of these two freshmen from Xiangbei:

"Why does it feel like Xiangbei completed the counterattack in the blink of an eye?"

"That red-haired No. 10 Hanamichi, isn't he injured? How can he still run so fast!"

"Rukawa Kaede from No. 11 Fugaoka Junior High School is also very good, scoring like flowing water!"

Hanagata, who was in the stands, saw this scene and thought to himself that Shoyo was also defeated by the combined power of these two first-year students.

Fujima said casually:

"Come on, Shohoku is a pretty good team! Let's go check out the other half of the conference and see how another guy with a reputation for talent performs!"

While cheering for Hanamichi and Rukawa, Muguro was also curious about the words that Coach Anzai asked Hanamichi to convey to Rukawa.

Seeing this, Caizi solved the mystery:

"You must be eager to challenge the number one player in Kanagawa Prefecture. Coach Anzai said that you will have unlimited firing rights from now on!"

So that's how it is. Kogure Mitsunobu looked at Rukawa Kaede again.

"As a first-year superstar, how could they admit defeat after seeing the battle between Hanamichi and Kainanmaki Shinichi?"

"I'm so glad that I have you this year in addition to flower arrangement!"

"Go ahead, Rukawa Kaede."

In the stands, the younger students of Fuqiu Junior High School cheered for their seniors, and of course the Rukawa Kaede cheerleading trio also resurrected!

……

Next, Hainan, led by Amu, regained 2 points.

And after Rukawa Kaede dribbled past Kiyota Nobunaga, Shohoku also scored with a layup from Takasago.

And then he once again stole the ball from Hainan's Muto Masaru and rushed towards Hainan's basket.

Looking at the Xiangbei team members running after them, Hanamichi moved symbolically, and then whispered with the corner of his mouth:

"Go ahead, the whole country is waiting for you!"

Rukawa first dribbled the ball with a change of hands and changed direction to avoid the defense of Kazuo Kamiso, and then, with the shouts of the Hainan team's coach Takato, he collided with the number one player in Kanagawa Prefecture, Shinichi Maki of the Hainan team!

Then, the famous scene happened again!

It was different from Hanamichi's mid-air dunk, because Rukawa used a pull-up action, and the amplitude was not like Hanamichi's, which even brought the ball to his lower abdomen, so his dunk was not as powerful as Hanamichi's in mid-air, but in terms of beauty and technique, it was better.

Same position, same defender, same shadow appearing in the air, same member of the Xiangbei team, same freshman, and same successful slam dunk!

Hanamichi and Rukawa defeated Shinichi Maki's dunks twice, which surprised Akagi, Mitsui and Miyagi.

Akagi is a little better. After all, Coach Anzai has revealed that he already knows that Hanamichi's basketball level is already at the national level, and he is almost at the top of the country at the power forward position. Then the super rookie Rukawa Kaede, who is also a first-year player, is not far behind.

As for Miyagi and Mitsui, they looked at each other in bewilderment:

"I originally thought that they were just the best among the first graders, but I didn't expect them to be so strong that even Hainan's Amu couldn't suppress them!"

"Ryukawa Kaede and Hanamichi, they are both arrogant, taciturn, hateful, unkind, arrogant and cold-blooded boys."

"The other is a bad boy who is arrogant, disrespectful, lawless, attention-seeking, and has strange behavior."

"But they are really good. They completely suppressed Hainan in the first half and defeated Amu in a one-on-one duel!"

As for the "number one man" in Kanagawa Prefecture, Shinichi Maki's face was almost unbearable! Anyway, Hanamichi was across half the court, and looking at the dark bronze face of the "middle-aged man", he could not see any softness at all.

At this time, Gaotou, the coach of the Hainan team, had already broken the folding fan in his hand amid the cheers of the audience.

Next, as long as the ball from Xiangbei's attack falls into Rukawa's hands, it will cause cheers from the audience, and the Hainan team will fight hard in Xiangbei's inside line, so the frequency of scoring is guaranteed.

The two sides started a fierce battle for points, but because of the advantage in rebounds, Xiangbei had relatively more offensive rounds.

Another shot missed, Hanamichi jumped up and snatched the rebound over Takasago's head.

Because of the pain in his ankle when he landed, he passed the ball to Miyagi who was in an open position.

Miyagi lived up to expectations and scored a goal one step outside the penalty area under tremendous pressure.

"Beep! The first half is over!"

The score between the two sides is 60:54, with Xiangbei leading by 6 points.

Just when Xiangbei and Hainan were taking halftime, the joint final of Zone B had already been decided.

The Ryonan team won a big victory with 117:64, but this does not mean that Buri is weaker, but because Ryonan is too strong this year.

Ryonan added a player named Ryumasa Oda to the original team, which greatly increased the offensive firepower and defensive strength. Not to mention, Ryonan also reserved a trump card, and coach Tian Gang was waiting to surprise coach Gaotou.
