The matter of going to Tokyo to watch a karate competition has been finalized with Fujima Takako, and he is full of curiosity about the "Kyogoku Shin" martial arts that Fujima Takako calls.
That afternoon, after physical training, Budo went to the arena in Shohoku alone and met Hisashi Mitsui and others who were training in the arena.
It was August, and after experiencing the national competition, the Shohoku players took a short break for a few days and started practicing spontaneously. It was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon when Wu Dao came to the arena, and the training in the arena was in full swing.
"First grade! Run faster and keep up! Keep up!"
"Miyagi, after the physical training is over, you and Chiba will practice an additional 300 mid-range shots. Akagi and Kigure will also practice an additional 300 mid-range shots!"
On the edge of the court, Mitsui Hisashi was wearing a white T-shirt. His clothes had already been soaked with sweat. However, Mitsui Hisashi's face did not show the slightest trace of fatigue. He shouted loudly towards the players who were running back and forth on the field. shouted.
"This guy, Xiaosan, is so angry!"
"It seems like everything has been adjusted."
Jinguji Budo walked into the stadium and watched the team members training, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
The defeat in the national competition actually had a huge impact on Xiangbei. Losing to Lingnan High School one after another would take a toll on the team members' self-confidence.
Mitsui Hisashi was the player who executed the last attack in the game. Mitsui Hisashi always felt that the loss was caused by his last shot being blocked by Hanagata Toru, so after the game, Mitsui Hisashi was silent for a long time.
But now it seems that Mitsui Hisashi has adjusted his mentality. Not only Mitsui Hisashi, but also Akagi and others have very determined eyes. The other team members are also very active in training.
It can be seen that Xiangbei has now emerged from the haze of failure.
"Mistress." After entering the arena, Budo walked up to Mitsui Hisashi and greeted him.
"oh!"
"Martial Arts, aren't you in special training? Why did you come to the gym today?"
Mitsui Hisashi turned his head and glanced at Budo, smiled and raised his hand to say hello, and then turned his attention back to the team members who were training. Seeing Tsunoda's running speed lagging too far behind, he immediately shouted:
"Kakuda! Follow me, what are you doing so slowly?!"
Seeing Mitsui Hisashi's devoted look, Budo also smiled knowingly in his heart. He did not answer immediately, but stood next to Mitsui Hisashi and watched the team members' training.
"The team members are all working hard!" Wu Dao looked at them for a long time and sighed softly.
"Of course you need to work hard. Although this year's IH is over, there will be Autumn National Sports and the Winter Games after the school starts!"
"Judging from the situation in this summer's county competition, many of our players in Xiangbei will be selected for the Autumn National Sports."
"I and you must be the recruited team members, and Akagi and Miyagi also have a high probability of being recruited."
"If we don't work hard now, our reputation in Xiangbei will be overtaken by Lingnan again!"
Mitsui Shou heard Budo's emotion and said it as a matter of course. ih's defeat is a thing of the past. For Mitsui Hisashi, the most important thing now is to check for leaks and fill in the gaps, improve the team, and prepare for future games.
"Yes, it's still too late to work hard now, and there is still a chance to win the championship, but if we don't work hard, others will not deliver the championship trophy to us."
"It really surprises me that you adjusted your attitude so quickly. I thought you would be quiet for a while."
Wu Dao nodded and continued:
"But we still need to balance training and rest. I'm going to Tokyo to watch a karate competition in two days. I heard from Takako that there will be masters competing at that time, which should be quite exciting."
"Are you interested? Let's go together."
Hearing this, Mitsui Shou turned to look at Martial Arts and shook his head: "I don't have the consciousness to be a light bulb."
"The summer vacation has begun. For the players, this is a good time for everyone to improve their strength. However, coach Anxi will not come to the team to provide guidance in normal times."
"These players are just at the peak of their enthusiasm. If I don't come and let them practice randomly without a plan, the effect will be too bad."
Mitsui Shou shook his head and decisively rejected the martial arts invitation. Now Mitsui Hisashi is focused on the team, hoping that the team can become stronger and become a reliable pillar for him to win championships in the future.
Mitsui Hisashi knows very well that to defeat a strong team like Lingnan High School, relying solely on his personal ability is far from enough. If the team cannot become stronger and the overall strength cannot improve, next year's IH will already lose. They are Shohoku High School.
"That's it! Got it."
"However, training still needs to be moderate. After all, the basics between players are different. It is best to be able to differentiate when you train them."
"After all, for some players, basketball is just a club activity. For people like Akagi who are pursuing a basketball career, it doesn't matter if they are a little more strict. But for people like Tsunoda, don't give them too much training."
Budo reminded him as he looked at Tsunoda, who was panting and running on the court, as well as many first-year players who were exhausted. Shohoku High School is a public school after all, and the first-year players who join the basketball team have uneven foundations. Many players actually do not have the ability to complete Mitsui Hisa's rigorous training.
The player's ability cannot keep up with the captain's ambition.
"Did you come to the arena just to talk to me about this?"
"Of course I know that some first-year players have poor foundations. The physical training I assigned them is actually not as big as you think."
"But there is one thing I think is different from yours. If the people who join Xiangbei are not aiming to dominate the country, it is best not to join the basketball team!"
"The Shohoku Basketball Club is not something people can join just for fun!"
In the top eight of the national competition, Hisashi Mitsui is obviously not satisfied with the current results of Shohoku High School. For him, whether it is the top eight or the top four, as long as he is not the champion, then what Shohoku has to do is not enough.
Mitsui Hisako doesn't think that his Shohoku High School will be any worse than other schools. Even if it is a public high school, Mitsui Hisashi is determined to lead Shohoku to win the national championship.
"It's up to you, I just remind you not to injure the team members."
"I came to the arena today just to tell you that I will be going out in two days. If anything happens, I will ask my family to call me. Don't run away in vain."
"By the way, let's also watch the training."
Budo replied with a smile. Of course, he knows Mitsui Hisashi's character and martial arts very well, and he won't say much about the current team's training, as long as the players pay attention to safety.
After hearing this, Mitsui Shou waved his hand and said impatiently: "I understand, don't worry."
"Do you want to practice together for a while?"
Mitsui Shou pointed to the team members who were training and turned to ask Martial Arts.
"No, the amount of exercise is almost the same this afternoon. There is still strength training in the evening. We need to give our body enough rest time."
"I'm leaving first. You ask them to be careful not to get hurt during practice."
Wu Dao shook his head and refused, saying that the team's group training had a very small effect on him. For Wu Dao, individual strength cannot be improved through large group training. The help that team training can provide to martial arts is only to cultivate a tacit understanding between the players and has no effect on improving personal strength.
"Well, you should practice well in seclusion. You have to show results when school starts, otherwise, I won't be able to get around you!"
Mitsui Shou nodded, then put on a serious expression and said martial arts.
"Just wait and see, you won't be disappointed."
While the two were talking, the rest of the team members' training had come to a break, and a group of people were sitting on the floor in twos and threes. Wu Dao greeted his teammates and left the gym immediately.
Xiangbei's current training attitude has completely reassured Martial Arts, and Martial Arts is also looking forward to Xiangbei's future.
....
"Brother Martial Arts, have you ever seen a karate competition before?"
"Is there any difference between this karate and judo?"
Two days later, on the train to Tokyo, Sakuragi Hanamichi asked Jinguji Budou sitting opposite him with a red face.
Today is the day that Budo and Fujima Takako made an appointment to go to Tokyo to watch a karate competition. At that time, he invited Mitsui Hisashi. Mitsui Hisashi didn't go, so Budo turned around and asked Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Sakuragi Hanamichi was obviously not interested in the karate competition, but after being reminded by Budo, Sakuragi Hanamichi realized that this trip to Tokyo might be able to deepen his relationship with Haruko, and immediately ran to Akagi's house to invite Haruko to go with him. .
At that time, Takenori Akagi was training at the gym in Shohoku. When he knew that his sister had been abducted by Sakuragi Hanamichi, he became furious and planned to teach Sakuragi Hanamichi a lesson. However, when he learned that Sakuragi was actually with Budo and Takako, We also suppressed our anger when we went to Tokyo to watch the game together.
He was absolutely worried when Sakuragi and Haruko went out alone, but with Budo and Takako Fujima, he could feel more at ease with them.
Having been teammates with Budo for such a long time, Akagi knows very well what kind of person Budo is, and Akagi is also aware of the existence of Fujima Takako. The daughter of judo master Fujima Shinichi is the daughter of the martial arts master.
Although Budo and Takako did not reveal many things, people like Akagi still saw it.
"The difference...Actually, I don't know. I don't know anything about karate."
"But it should be about the same. It's a fight anyway, whoever gets down loses."
Wu Dao dragged his chin with one hand, looked at the scenery in the distance outside the window, and answered casually.
"That's it!" Sakuragi Hanamichi nodded, glanced at Haruko beside him, and then quickly looked away. His little move was seen by Takako Fujima, who was sitting next to Budo.
Takako Fujima narrowed her eyes slightly, suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled the corner of Budo's clothes, whispered something in Budo's ear, and then waited for Budo's answer.
Her voice was very low and was drowned out by the sound of the train. Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko on the other side couldn't hear what Fujima Takako was whispering to Budo at all.
Budo turned around and nodded towards Takako Fujima. Takako Fujima, who received a positive reply, seemed to have found some fun. His eyes suddenly brightened up. Zeng stood up from his seat and moved toward him aggressively. Sakuragi Hanamichi said:
"Sakuragi-kun, let's change seats!"
Sakuragi didn't know what Fujima Takako was going to do, but when he saw the other party's menacing look, he subconsciously shrank his neck.
"No... don't..." Sakuragi Hanamichi resisted a little. He wanted to sit with Haruko and didn't want to change places.
Budo also looked confused and quickly pulled Takako Fujima back to his seat.
"What are you doing? You'll be here soon. Why do you want to change positions?"
Although he was pulled back to his seat by Budo, Fujima Takako still narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes drifted away from Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko, and said coldly:
"Not worthy!"
When Wu Dao heard this, he felt a headache and hurriedly patted Longzi on the shoulder:
"Just say a few words. Whether you are worthy or not has nothing to do with you~"
"Why do you care so much?"
Fujima Takako frowned and said unhappily: "Cow dung inserted into flowers looks uncomfortable!"
Fujima Takako said this very quietly in Budo's ear. Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko looked at each other, not knowing what Budo and Fujima Takako were talking about.
"Hanamichi is a good young man, you will know it after you have known him for a long time."
After saying this, not to mention Takako Fujima didn't believe it, Budo himself didn't believe it.
Today, Sakuragi Hanamichi is dressed in black, with a red mohawk. No matter how you look at it, you don't look like a good person.
After this episode, Fujima Takako's attention was focused on Sakuragi Hanamichi. Whenever Sakuragi had some physical contact with Haruko, he would receive Fujima Takako's stern eyes.
This kid Sakuragi's face is Schrödinger's. Normally, it is as thick as a city wall, but at this time, it is very thin. With Takako Fujima watching, Sakuragi Hanamichi does not dare to move at all.
Along the way, the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Fortunately, it didn't take long to get to Tokyo. A few hours later, the four of them arrived at the venue.
As an invited guest, Fujima Shinichi had arrived in Tokyo a day ago. Budo and the others arrived on the day of the competition. When they arrived, it was still early before the competition started. Fujima Takako thought of using her father's relationship to go to the waiting room. Meet Kyogoku Makoto who is participating in the competition today. Takako Fujima is full of curiosity about this contestant who has been undefeated in more than 100 games.
"I don't know what kind of person he is, but he can actually win nearly two hundred games in a row."
"Martial arts, if you have the chance, you really want to fight against such a person. If you can defeat him, wouldn't it be equivalent to winning more than a hundred games in a row without defeat?"
On the way to the waiting room, Takako Fujima held Budo's arms with both hands and talked to Budo excitedly.
"What?! You bastard, how dare you refuse our boss's kindness?!"
"You are so shameless. If this is the case, then we will make it impossible for you to win this game!"
In front of everyone was a corner. Suddenly, two loud shouts came from the end of the road. The next second, a young man in a black suit flew out of the intersection on the corner and hit the person with a loud bang. On the wall, a metal-colored baseball bat rolled down to the feet of Martial Arts and others as the young man collapsed on the ground.
"Hey, hey, hey... is it true? This person flew out?!"
Wu Dao scratched his head and opened his mouth in disbelief. Fujima Takako's eyes lit up when she saw this scene. She knew there was fun there!
Several people quickly stepped forward and turned their heads to see a surprising scene.
A young man wearing a white competition uniform stood with his fists clenched, and an indescribable aura was exuding from his body. In addition to the man in a suit who just flew to the wall, there were six other people wearing suits of the same color lying next to the boy.
The baseball bat rolled to the floor.
Needless to say, Martial Arts only combined the two roars just now to know what happened. It was nothing more than trying to make people throw fake punches but was rejected. I don’t know how many times Martial Arts has heard of this kind of thing.
But now, the young man wearing the competition uniform has attracted Martial Arts' attention.
"Kyogoku... it's really him!" Budao looked at the young man's face, glanced at the name embroidered on his clothes, and was speechless.
"Who...are you? Why are you here?"
"Are you in the same group as these people?"
