Chapter 163 You are not the only one waiting to become the second best shooter in junior high school!
‘How about this~’
‘If you can win, I will return the jersey to you, but if I win, please speak to me in a normal tone like me in the future.’
‘How about it?’
‘Fair, right?”
For Shigure Akito, Shiru Reio was just one of the opponents he defeated last year. If it weren’t for the fact that the opponent still remembered the”intonation rules” very seriously after a year, Shigure Akito himself would have forgotten about it.
“This time, are you ready to get your jersey back?”
“Um……”
In the past year, after finishing the day’s training, Shi Liu Lingyang continued to shoot until the night was dark, like a fish that would suffocate if it didn’t swim, or a migratory bird that would fall into the sea if it didn’t flap its wings.
Whenever he thought of this…
Shi Liu Lingyang looked like an evil spirit with a fierce look in his eyes.
“Use all your strength……”
“It will make you suffer……”
“Shigure Akito.” Shigure
Akito couldn’t help but smile when he heard that.”You didn’t give me a direct ‘win’ answer this time, Shigure Reiha.” Shigure
Reiha:”……”
Miru Reo:”Shigure-san, you are still so… interesting.”
Shigure Akito:”Then, please give me more advice.”
Miru Reo:”Please give me more advice.”
When Shigure Akito and Miru Reo were discussing about ‘jerseys’ and ‘victory’ like last year.
On the other side.
During the warm-up phase.
The Teiko players suddenly found that the always irritating gray-haired man was missing from the team, and the captain Nijimura Shuzo was also looking for the gray-haired man.
“Rainbow Village……”
“Huizaki……”
“I just said I was going to buy some water.……”
Nijimura Shuzo’s courage at this moment was like a lion, pressing down on everyone without distinguishing between friend and foe.
The two third-year emergency substitutes who had few opportunities to play, facing this”former bad boy” captain, could not help but swallow a little and sold out Haizaki with all their heart.
“In fact, I think he was just in a bad mood because Midorima started this game.”
Nijimura nodded, then showed a dark smile
“Haha~!”
“Right?”
“Are you in a bad mood?”
Seeing Nijimura Shuzo walking out of the field aggressively, the two third-year players looked at each other cautiously.
“……”
I hope that Huizaki, this idiot, won’t be taught a lesson too badly later.
Pray for you…
Huizaki
……
Not long after, as expected, when Haizaki Shogo reappeared, he was standing with Nijimura, but to say”standing” was a stretch.
In fact, his face was bruised and purple.
He was dragged by Nijimura Shuzo and looked like he was dying.
“Humph! This time, considering that he is just looking for a place to daydream and not doing anything wrong, I will just teach him a lesson!”Ah?
Are you sure… just a lesson?
Seeing the miserable state of Haizaki, everyone was stunned for a moment.
Afraid…
The first-year teammates mourned for Haizaki for a second, and their”tall” image of Captain Nijimura in their hearts inexplicably deepened.
And beside the two, Aomine Daiki, who was closest to Nijimura, subconsciously took two steps back. After all, he and Haizaki, at most… plus Murasakibara. They were basically the most naughty ones in the team and were often taught a lesson by Nijimura.
It’s just… he had never reached this level.
“Qingzai～”
”
What are you hiding from~?:”……”
His face tensed unnaturally.
“Ha ha……”
“I didn’t hide……”
At first, Yukari looked up and down at Aomine with some doubt, then looked thoughtfully at Captain Nijimura who had heard the voice not far away and looked over here.
Then… he saw Aomine turning around and shooting a warm-up shot seriously.
Then he suddenly realized
“Ah~”
“Did you make Captain Fox Eyes angry again?”
“Shut up……”
“I didn’t”
“Then why are you hiding?”
“Because I respect Captain Nijimura the most”
“……”
In the relaxed atmosphere of Teikou, the one who is completely different from them is Midorima Shintaro who will replace Akashi and start today.
In the national arena.
So far.
Among the first-year players of Teikou, except Akashi, the first-year player in the starting lineup is only him, Midorima Shintaro. Thinking of this, Midorima Shintaro’s eyes suddenly became sharp!
And his opponent is the one who faced off against Shigure-senpai last year, Mishiru Reo!
Midorima knows this person very well.
At a time when the exaggerated shooting of Shigure-senpai is hard to reach, Mishiru Reo’s shooting is almost the recognized benchmark for the entire junior high school basketball.
For many junior high school shooters, the object of their shooting imitation is Mishiru Reo.
Midorima stroked today’s lucky charm.……
‘Basketball’.
Behind the lenses, there is a pair of determined and confident eyes.
At this moment.
In order to appear more”natural” to get rid of Murasakibara under the eyes of Captain Nijimura, Aomine chose to come to Midorima, a model of a good member of the basketball club.
“Eh~”
“Midorima, where is your lucky item today?”
“Are you so nervous that you forget to listen to the morning fortune telling?”
“Qingfeng……”
“The morning fortune-telling show is in the morning, and now it is afternoon. The tension will not last for such a long time, and… do your best and wait for fate.”
“As long as I do my best, I won’t be nervous.”
Swoosh!
Midorima
Shintaro hit the ball accurately from outside the three-point line.
“Today’s lucky item is also very special……”
“It’s a basketball.”
Qingfeng looked in the direction of the shot and glanced at the other side. There were Reiori Shiru and Akito Shigure, who were so imposing that it was difficult for others to interfere. Then… he subconsciously said:
“Senior took the initiative to ask you to start, and the one you play against is your old ‘rival’, no wonder that guy Hui Qi is very unhappy… You are such a charlatan, even I am a little jealous”
“……”
“All three-point shooters……”
“Even though the opponent is a senior in the second year, you won’t lose, right?”
Midorima, who was determined to attack the second best shooter in the junior high school in this game, didn’t care about the”god stick” mentioned by the opponent as usual, but said confidently:
“After this battle, I will make it clear to everyone that the second best shooter in the country is me!”After hearing this, everyone in Teiko looked at him.
You know, Midorima, who is always calm and composed, would never express his ambitions so bluntly like Aomine.
On the side,
Haizaki Shogo pouted in disdain, while Akashi Seijuro quietly interrupted Aomine, who was patting Midorima’s shoulder vigorously and saying something like”You are very powerful today.”
“The matchup from the beginning must be successful, Midorima”
“Waiting to become the second best shooter in junior high school……”
“You are not the only one.”
After saying that… coincidentally…
Akashi’s gaze passed over everyone and came to Fukaya Reiji, who had his hair tied back and was now on the bench, sorting out his equipment.
Following Akashi’s gaze, the first-year students swallowed subconsciously when they saw Senior Fukaya lift his bangs again, his eyes as if the seal had been lifted, and his sharp eyes were exposed.
Because… this state… was the first time they had seen Fukaya Reiji again since the duel between him and Shigure Akito.
