Kuroko: I had already won the championship before the miracle happened.

The future Haizaki Shogo...

Praying for you, you are truly blessed.

Kotaro Hayama was rushing around recklessly, and when he turned around, he met the sharp eyes of Shuzo Nijimura. His messy leopard-colored hair flew up as he struggled.

"Hongcun!"

"What are you doing, man?"

"Eh~"

"And Shi Yu..."

"You monster are here too!"

"Let me go quickly, I'm in a hurry~"

slap~

There was no reason for Nijimura Shuzo to keep holding him down like that. After he let go, it was clear that Hayama Kotaro was indeed quite anxious. He didn't bother to investigate what had just happened. He threw his backpack over his shoulder, supported himself with one hand on the handrail, and jumped directly from the stairs...

jumped down.

Shigure Akito glanced down and saw that after Hayama Kotaro had landed smoothly, he was running again in a hurry. He shook his head speechlessly, "Nijimura, what you said before was absolutely right. This guy really is like a monkey."

"I want to follow him and see. To be honest, he's one of the targets I'm interested in..."

really.

After he finished speaking, the interest in Nijimura's eyes suddenly dropped by half.

"Just him...?"

Why?

But in the end he decided to go with Shigure to see what was going on, not because of Hayama Kotaro, but out of sheer curiosity about what that monkey was doing in such a hurry to get out of the arena during the All-China Tournament.

Then, the two of them left the Quanzhong venue and followed all the way to an outdoor baseball field.

……

The venue is quite large.

Several courts are lined up in rows, and one of them is surrounded by a large number of players and spectators. If you look closely, you can easily find players from all the participating teams.

The two noticed...

When Kotaro Hayama ran over, he instantly caused cheers.

From a distance, you can hear the DJ's voice, which is not of very good quality.

"Oh~!"

"coming!"

"Changyuan International from Miyazaki!"

"First-year starter..."

"Kotaro Hayama!"

After arriving at the court, Kotaro Hayama looked around the field and finally saw the two second-year seniors who were only wearing their uniforms but had lost their regular jackets.

After seeing Kotaro Hayama, the two second-year players of Changyuan suddenly returned to their roots, as if they had found their backbone.

Although they looked embarrassed and awkward, they still pointed at the person in the field and said:

"Kotaro..."

"That guy..."

"We didn't want to gamble with our uniforms, but..."

"That guy's words were awful."

"so……"

Upon hearing this, Kotaro Hayama turned around and looked inside the field. He saw a guy who looked like a spider at first glance, sticking out his tongue at him. Even though he didn't say anything, he immediately felt disgusted.

Just as the two second-year members of Changyuan were waiting for Kotaro Hayama to speak, they saw Kotaro Hayama looking at their embarrassed expressions and suddenly burst into laughter.

Laughter is very hearty and contagious.

"I understand."

"Senior~"

"really interesting."

"Such an interesting thing should have been told to me earlier~"

Outside, seeing Hayama Kotaro like this, Shigure Akito was also amused by his laughter. When he noticed Nijimura frowning and looking at another person in the field, Shigure spoke in time:

"That guy is Hanamiya Makoto~"

"A very smart guy. I heard that he can perfectly recreate a game after watching it once, and analyze the team's movements based on that."

"Um……"

"As for the rest..."

"Very good at intercepting the ball and making small moves?"

In the field.

The host had anticipated this. He picked up the microphone and spoke to the three people from Changyuan Middle School:

"Now……"

"The trio from Changyuan Middle School!"

"Do you want to continue challenging the people who just defeated you? But Hanamiya-san has requested that we only play 3v3. Otherwise, you guys from Changyuan Middle School keep coming at me one by one, and Hanamiya-san seems to be troubled too~"

"certainly……"

"I still have to bet on this coat of yours~"

As the host finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers and applause from all around.

Shigure Akito glanced at Hanamiya Makoto who was smiling sinisterly in the middle of the field. It was obvious that the previous matches against Chogen Junior High School were all 1v1, but after Hayama Kotaro arrived, they suddenly found an excuse to change it to 3v3.

so……

Hanamiya Makoto must have known Hayama Kotaro's strength in advance and set a trap here~

after all……

His best skill is pass interception, which he performs better in a team.

Such behavior really fits his impression of Hanamiya Makoto, but he wonders if he has already developed into the technical aspect of a 'useless person'.

The second-year students of Changyuan turned their attention to Hayama Kotaro, hoping that he could help.

Kotaro Hayama was the type who would be interested in this, and he also became interested at this time. Moreover, the bowl-cut guy opposite him had a gloomy and sneering expression, which made him want to beat him into a sieve!

Kotaro Hayama nodded immediately with a smile on his face.

However, thinking that it was 3v3, he looked at his two second-year seniors and was suddenly stunned.

like……

Not so good?

The two second-year seniors obviously realized this and were about to speak when they saw Kotaro Hayama's eyes suddenly light up, and then he walked quickly to the sidelines with an excited look on his face.

The two second-year students from Changyuan: "!?"

emperor……

Teiko's?

Although they changed their numbers, they were very familiar with each other.

Shigure Akito and Nijimura build it!

"Hey~!"

"You two guys, do you want to play ball~?"

Nijimura remained silent, showing no interest, while Shigure Akito nodded first, then shook his head, "I want to fight, but not with you~"

"but……"

"Let me give you a hint~"

"That tall guy with a silly face over there from Zhaorong Middle School, and that effeminate guy from Xianzhen Middle School over there, you can go ask them~"

Muji Teppei: “……?”

Natural fool?

Minoru Reio: "...!?"

Sissy?!

After hearing what Shigure Akito said, the two of them came out.

Mibuchi Reio smiled sinisterly, "Shigure-san, who were you talking about just now~? I'm not a sissy~"

Kiyoshi Teppei was startled by the other party's drawn-out ending tone. Mibuchi Reio noticed this and glared at him threateningly with her eyes closed.

Shigure Akito is fine, but if this guy dares to talk nonsense...

But just as Mibuchi Reio was thinking this, he saw the other party showing a warm smile and greeting him with a sunny face, "Hello, Mibuchi-san who is really good at three-point shooting."

Mibuchi Reio wasn't very good at dealing with this type of person. "The starting point guard for Teruei Junior High? Muji..."

Muji Teppei: "I am Muji Teppei."

Minoru Reiyo: "..."

After each team played their first game in the morning, although not all of them, they basically had a general grasp of the information about their main opponents.

Explosive players like Shigure and Nijimura are the targets of all teams aiming to win the championship.

For example, right now, Hanamiya Makoto...

When Kotaro Hayama walked towards Shigure and Nijimura, Shoichi Imayoshi, who was wearing glasses and had a fox-like smile next to Makoto Hanamiya, suddenly stopped smiling.

"Hanamiya~"

"It's troublesome~"

"Forget Changyuan International. After all, they're our next opponent. Attacking them off the court right now is a good plan."

"But those two are Teiko's Shigure Akito and Nijimura Shuzo~"

"How are you going to end this?"

"If I get beaten too badly by those two, I can't guarantee it will affect my performance in the afternoon match~"

Hanamiya Shin glanced at him coldly, "Senior Imayoshi, you're so nagging~"

Although the two of them said it very easily.

But the solemnity in his eyes could not be hidden from the other party.

But after a while.

When he saw that the two monsters from Teiko did not team up with Kotaro Hayama, Hanamiya Makoto became even more upset.

"Two people from Teiko~"
