Slam Dunk: Muguro

Chapter 82: Fading Jump Shot
Mu Mu folded his hands and smiled, "I thought you would be depressed for a while, but I didn't expect you to recover so quickly."

"You don't even look at who I am!"

"Don't worry, never give up, Mitsui Shou!"

"Mumu, how about a fight?"

Mitsui picked up the basketball and looked belligerent.

"forget it!"

Murasakibara waved his hand to refuse. Mitsui's condition has not fully recovered, and the key is that his ball-holding ability has not reached the top level.

This can be seen from the freshman practice match, when Mitsui was unable to break through Akagi's defense.

It's so difficult to break through Akagi, let alone those defensive stalwarts.

In Murasakibara's opinion, Mitsui's physical fitness, ball handling, positioning, defense and even organization have reached an excellent level. As for his best shooting, it is naturally top-notch and can be called the ceiling of SD.

Mitsui is now comparable to Amu and Fujima, but these three also have their own strengths.

Seeing that Mitsui was a little disappointed, Mu Mu immediately said: "But I can arrange a good opponent for you!"

"Who?"

"A sophomore in junior high school!"

The person that Murasakibara was talking about was naturally Rukawa Kaede.

"You are underestimating me, little second-year junior high school kid!"

When Mitsui heard that the player was two years younger than him, he felt that he was being looked down upon.

"Mitsui, he is the MVP of Kanagawa Junior High School this year. He is very strong. If you are careless, you might lose!"

Murasakibara shook his head. Under his guidance, Rukawa's growth rate was obviously faster than his peers. This was also the main reason why he was able to lead the team to win the junior high school championship.

In terms of offensive ability with the ball, Rukawa is no worse than Mitsui.

"Are all the kids nowadays so strong? They won the junior high school MVP in their second year of junior high school. I think they deserve my serious attention! Mumu, I accept this one-on-one challenge!"

Mitsui expressed surprise and became excited at the same time.

He was not very interested in challenging Murasakibara because he understood that although he was not inferior to Murasakibara in overall strength, he would only be abused in a one-on-one contest.

There's no way, Murasakibara is too biased, just like playing a game, putting all the points into offense, not as balanced as him.

"I'll bring him over at noon!"

In order to prepare for the make-up exams, Rukawa would also stay at the Murasakibara house to study during lunch break.

Jingle bell bell~
At this time, the sound of school classes began.

Hearing this voice, Mu Mu couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Mitsui, aren't you going to school?"

"You didn't go either?"

"We are different, I called in sick!"

After reaching the joint finals, Murasakibara asked his father to take another month of sick leave.

Upon learning that Murasakibara had taken sick leave again, Mr. Koike, the class teacher, was naturally furious, but he was only soft-hearted and eventually agreed to the sick leave application.

Teacher Koike is short, looks weird, has a bad temper, and likes to wear flip-flops to class!

In the plot year, Koike is also the mathematics teacher of Class 1, Grade 7 (Haruko Akagi), Class 10, Grade (Hanamichi Sakuragi), and Class , Grade (Kaede Rukawa).

In SD, Koike can be said to be the most miserable teacher because his students include Sakuragi and Rukawa.

Koike hated students sleeping in his class the most. As a result, because he disturbed Rukawa's sleep, he was beaten up in public by the latter, which created a famous scene.

Rukawa Kaede: No matter who you are, I will never forgive you if you disturb my sleep!
Although he was beaten by Rukawa, Mr. Koike still has his bottom line.

When the Problem Kids Corps was unable to participate in the national competition due to failing their subjects, despite his harsh words, he did not use the failure to target Sakuragi and Rukawa.

Although he didn't appear much, Koike was just as impressive as the mustachioed store manager.

One cannot help but sigh at Takehiko Inoue's ability to portray characters.

"Your sick leave is a little bit longer! Your parents are too open-minded, unlike my parents..."

When talking about his parents, Mitsui fell silent.

"I'm a top student, I'm showing my cards!"

Murasaki spread his hands. His parents were very open-minded, and the key was that Murasaki had excellent academic performance. This was the key.

Since awakening his innate wisdom, Murasakibara's memory has improved further, almost reaching the level of photographic memory. As long as he spends a little time every day, he can easily catch up with the learning progress.

"Don't be so proud!" Mitsui's tone was sour and he felt his fist harden again.

As one of the problem children, Mitsui's academic performance is hard to describe.

This guy is not only an excellent basketball player, but his appearance, temperament, figure, academic performance and even personality are all perfect and impeccable.

Murasakibara didn't say anything, but took out a notebook from his backpack and started writing and drawing on it.

Mitsui asked curiously, "What are you writing?"

"Information about Shoyo!"

"Why would you remember Xiangyang if you don't remember Hainan High School?"

Mitsui was completely confused.

"Stupid, of course I'm exchanging information with Buri!"

After the game yesterday, Murasakibara took the initiative to find the Watanabe brothers from Buri, wanting to learn post-up singles.

Since there is an opportunity to enhance his strength, Murasakibara will naturally not let it go.

He will seize every opportunity to increase his strength, after all, there will be no loss even if he fails.

The Watanabe brothers are both very easy-going, which can be seen from the match between Buri and Hainan High School.

If they have bad tempers, the game will definitely escalate into conflict and both sides may even resort to physical combat.

Perhaps because of their victory in the game, the Watanabe brothers were in a good mood. They did not refuse Murasakibara's request and asked Murasakibara to contact them again tomorrow afternoon.

Before leaving, the Watanabe brothers also proposed that the two sides exchange information.

Shohoku provides Buri with information about Shoyo, and Buri provides Shohoku with information about Kainan High School.

Naturally, Murasakibara would be more than happy to do so, after all, it would be beneficial to both parties.

Although Buri and Shoyo are old rivals and Buri is familiar with Shoyo, Shoyo has changed a lot this year, especially with the addition of super rookie Kenji Fujima.

Murasakibara is very familiar with Fujima's characteristics, personality, and habits. After all, they played against each other for almost the entire game.

"Mitsui, you come write Kimura Yuya's profile!"

After finishing writing Fujima's information, Murasakibara handed the paper and pen to Mitsui.

"All right!"

While Mitsui was writing, Murasakibara wasted no time and started training mode.

After noon, Mugure brought Rukawa over.

When Rukawa learned that he would have a one-on-one competition with Mitsui, he agreed on the spot.

Xiangbei Basketball Hall!
Mitsui passed the ball to Rukawa Kaede and said, "Rukawa Kaede, let me see how strong you are!"

Rukawa Kaede didn't say anything and took the basketball silently.

On the side, Mu Mu showed an interested look.

He naturally would not miss the contest between the two junior high school MVPs. Although he was more optimistic about Mitsui, Rukawa was not without a chance.

This is also related to the fact that Mitsui's condition has not fully recovered.

On the court, Rukawa started dribbling the ball, his dribbling rhythm was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, trying to disrupt Mitsui's defense.

Mitsui stared at Rukawa closely, ready for battle.

Rukawa tried to break through and tried to change direction quickly to get rid of Mitsui.

Mitsui predicted Rukawa's intention. He stuck close to Rukawa, leaving no room for him to break through.

Suddenly, Rukawa Kaede jumped up suddenly.

Mitsui reacted quickly and jumped up, trying to block Rukawa's shot.

However, at the moment when the two of them took off into the air, Mitsui was surprised to find that the distance between them was gradually widening.

Fallback jump shot!

Mitsui's heart skipped a beat, but he still stretched his body as far as he could, trying to block Rukawa's sight.

In mid-air, Rukawa leaned back, flicked his wrist slightly, and threw the basketball out.

shuh~
The basketball goes hollow into the basket!

On the side, Mu Mu looked at the prompt that just popped up thoughtfully.
