Jinguji Budo suddenly appeared under the basket and dunked the ball into the net, which really exceeded everyone's expectations.
Sanno, who was standing under the basket and failed to grab the rebound, all turned their heads to look at Jinguji Budo with surprised expressions on their faces.
Martial Arts smiled at the members of the Mountain King and said softly:
"I heard the sound of you moving the beads on the abacus."
After saying that, Jinguji Martial Arts turned around and quickly returned to defense.
Was Goro Domoto overheard by Jinguji Budo when he laid out his plan? Of course not. Budo just noticed Fukatsu Kazunari's position was relatively deep during the attack, so he judged that Miyagi Ryota would most likely choose to shoot, thereby entering the basket in advance to help grab rebounds.
He didn't know what Sanno Industrial's plan was. Martial Arts just knew what he had to do to maximize his profits under such circumstances.
The game has now progressed, and Budo no longer wants to waste time with Sanno Industries. He wants to seal the victory as soon as possible.
"Prepare to attack!"
"The other party just made up for the deduction once. With the other party's ability, it's not surprising that he can occasionally do this kind of thing."
"Play at our own pace!"
In the Sanwang backcourt, Kazunari Fukatsu received a baseline serve from his teammate and shouted to the players. In fact, Sanno's team members themselves will not lose their fighting spirit because of a supplementary dunk by martial arts. At this time, Fukatsu said this, Sanno's momentum became strong again.
All the players quickly entered the Shohoku half. After taking a look at Matsumoto Minoru's position, Fukatsu Kazunari quickly accelerated to break through.
Then Fukatsu Kazunari's continuous rhythm changes followed by changes of direction left and right, leaving the defensive Miyagi Ryota unable to cope. When Kazunari Fukatsu passed the ball, Miyagi Ryota couldn't even make a move to block it. He could only watch the basketball fly past his eyes and send it steadily into the hands of Minoru Matsumoto on the side.
At this time, Minoru Matsumoto happened to be preparing to speed up. As soon as he got the basketball, after a blast, Minoru Matsumoto directly passed Katsumi Ichiro's defense and rushed towards the inside.
"coming!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi saw Matsumoto's breakthrough and quickly moved up to defend. As soon as he moved, Nango on the other side of the basket immediately stood in the middle of the Kawada brothers, guarding both of them at the same time.
Nango Koichiro's defensive position seems reasonable, but he seems to be overconfident in his defensive ability. Let alone guarding two people at the same time, even if he faced one alone, Nango Koichiro might not be able to guard his opponent!
His seemingly reasonable and perfect defense is actually full of flaws.
Minoru Matsumoto saw this!
Sure enough, Minoru Matsumoto, who broke through into the mid-range, saw a gap under the basket. He slightly raised his head and looked towards the basket, but the basketball in his hand was passed directly, and he was about to pass the ball to Masashi Kawada behind Sakuragi.
His pass was sudden, and he used fake moves to look at the basket before releasing the ball.
However, at this moment, Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was still raising his hands, suddenly dropped his center of gravity, raised his right arm and quickly blocked, and actually blocked Matsumoto Minoru's pass accurately.
After holding the ball firmly in his arms for less than a second, Sakuragi Hanamichi threw the ball directly towards the frontcourt and shouted:
"Don't underestimate this genius! Bastard Mountain King!"
Sakuragi's steal caused a sudden change in the expressions of the Sanno players. Goro Domoto, who was on the sidelines, couldn't help but stood up from his seat and clenched his fists.
At the same time, Jinguji Budo took the lead and rushed towards the Sanno half. After firmly catching the basketball at the midline, it began to accelerate.
Behind him, Masashi Kawada and Eiji Sawabita, one on the left and one on the right, quickly approached Jinguji Martial Arts.
But to everyone's surprise, the distance between Sawei and Masashi Kawada, who were running without the ball, and Jinguji Budo closed very slowly.
Their running speed without the ball is only a little faster than Jinguji Budo with the ball.
With such a pursuit speed, it is impossible to stop Jinguji Budo before he reaches the basket.
Kawada realized that he couldn't catch up and drove when he reached the three-point line.
He began to slow down, intending to use up less energy, and gave up the pursuit. However, Sawabita Eiji is not like Kawada Masashi. He feels that he has a chance!
Hearing the rapid footsteps behind him, Budo turned his head slightly while dribbling, and saw Eiji Zebita pursuing him. The corner of his mouth curled up, and Jinguji Budo suddenly slowed down.
The moment he dribbled the ball across the free throw line, Zebita Eiji was already behind Budo, his eyes full of joy.
"I've caught up with you! I must stop you!" Zebei Eiji shouted in his heart, holding his breath and watching Budo's next move attentively.
When he dribbled the ball across the free throw line, Jinguji Budo was no longer very fast. After combining the ball, gathering momentum, and taking two steps, Jinguji Budo went directly to the basket. Seeing Eiji Sawabita who had already caught up with him, Budo grabbed the ball with his right hand early, raised it above his head, and then jumped slightly, preparing for a dunk.
Sure enough, the moment Budo took off, Zebita Eiji also jumped up quickly, spotted the position of the basketball, and closed his hands on the basketball in Budo's hand.
"Zebei! No!"
"Don't get on, Zebei! Stop it quickly."
Seeing Eiji Sawabita jumping hard to block Jinguji Budo, Masashi Kawada and Goro Domoto on the court shouted in unison, trying to stop Eiji Sawabita, but... it was too late.
Jinguji Budo smiled at the corners of his eyes, and his right hand that grabbed the ball dodges to the right, easily avoiding the blockade of Eiji Zekita. In the next moment, Budo's body collides with Eiji Zekita, knocking his opponent away.
Jinguji Budo, who had reached the highest point, grabbed the ball and threw it directly towards the basket. Sawabita Eiji's hand inevitably hit Jinguji Budo's forearm.
"Bang!" The basketball was poured into the basket by Jinguji Budo.
However, Zebita Eiji, who landed quickly, could not stand firmly. He stumbled and fell to the floor, sliding towards the bottom line.
Jinguji Budo grabbed the basket with one hand, glanced at Zebei, and then looked at the referee. What surprised him was that the referee met Jinguji Budo's gaze head-on, but the next second he turned his head away and looked at Eiji Sawabita on the ground.
Wu Dao, who fell back to the ground, raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
No whistle! Zebei was not called a foul on this goal? !
Wu Dao stared at the referee for a long time, and the referee ignored Wu Dao. Seeing this, Wu Dao knew that he had failed in inducing Zebei to commit a foul. The referee seemed to be more demanding again. When Wu Dao dunked and scored, he did not give any more Martial Arts added free throw opportunities.
In this way, it would give Zebei and the Mountain King some relief.
If the verdict is 2+1 at this time, the morale that Sanno Industries has finally gathered will probably dissipate at this moment.
The referee refused to impose a penalty, and martial arts had no choice. He shrugged towards Eiji Zebita on the ground and turned back to defend.
At this time, Masashi Kawada also quickly ran to the basket, stretched out his hand to help Zebei, and asked with concern:
"Zebei, how are you? Are you okay?"
"There is actually no need to guard against this kind of ball. He just clearly tempted you to commit a foul."
"Fortunately, the referee didn't call it, otherwise, this kind of ball would be two plus one."
Kawada Masashi said earnestly, he could see clearly that Zebei had actually fallen into the trap of Jinguji martial arts, that is, he was lucky and the referee did not make a decision.
But if Zebei continues to be as defensive as he is now, the Mountain King may not be able to climb out of the pit!
"Feel sorry."
Zebei whispered an apology, rubbed his arm, went to the baseline, passed the ball to Kawada, and then ran toward the frontcourt without saying a word.
Masashi Kawada looked at Zebei's leaving back with a solemn expression. After carrying the ball for a while, he passed the ball to Fukatsu Kazunari, who was in charge, and then quickly ran towards Shohoku's frontcourt.
Kawada Masashi felt that Sawabita Eiji's mentality seemed to be out of balance, and he became impatient when playing.
Masashi Kawada may not be able to understand the mood of Eiji Sawabita at all now. On the offensive end, he seems to be an outsider. Under the defense of Jinguji Budo, he cannot join the team's offensive operation at all.
, standing on the court, Zebei felt like he was in prison.
On the defensive end, he and Kawada Masashi defended Jinguji Budo, which created a huge defensive gap for the team, but they were unable to block Jinguji Budo's offense.
This feeling of powerlessness made Eiji Zebita begin to doubt the meaning of his existence on the court.
If you attack, you won't be able to advance; if you defend, you won't be able to stop it.
Even a foul could not prevent the opponent from scoring a slam dunk. It was only by luck that the referee did not call it, otherwise, it would have been another 2+1 for Jinguji Budo.
Such a cruel situation made Eiji Zebei feel like he was in hell.
Sabahita Eiji, who was shrouded in the shadow of Jinguji martial arts, really couldn't raise his fighting spirit. He really couldn't think of any way to stop his opponent's attack, and he couldn't think of any way to score points from his opponent's head.
Just when Eiji Zebei was falling into self-doubt, Sanno Industries had completed this round of attack. After several passes, the basketball was handed to Kawada Mikio, who took the ball and shot with a small hook.
However, as soon as he took the shot, Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was originally guarding Kawada Masashi, suddenly jumped out from Kawada Mikio's side, jumped high and pressed the ball with both hands on the backboard.
A big block blocked Kawada Mikio's attack.
"Hahahahaha!"
"really!"
"Meatball Man, you should pay attention to other people when you shoot! Hahahahaha!"
Sakuragi Hanamichi laughed and passed the ball to the frontcourt. At the same time, a red figure passed quickly past Eiji Zebei.
"Defend!
Get back to defense quickly! "
"Zebei, stop him, stop him quickly!"
Jinguji Martial Arts cooperated with Sakuragi's pass and rushed towards the frontcourt at this moment. Amidst the shouts of Domoto Goro on the sidelines, Sawabita Eiji finally came to his senses and hurried towards Jinguji. Martial arts chase after him.
However, Jinguji martial arts was very fast, and Zebei had been unable to close the distance quickly. The distance between the two narrowed extremely slowly.
However, when Jinguji Budo approached the three-point line, the rapidly advancing Jinguji Budo suddenly slowed down, and then stopped at the three-point line, turning his head to look at Eiji Zebita, who was approaching quickly. , hooked his fingers.
"Hey, I'll give you a chance to guard against me!"
"If you want it, hold on!"
Jinguji Martial Arts' confident and frivolous words directly made Zebei furious. This was the first time he encountered such irony. Sawabita Eiji quickly came to Jinguji Budo's body, and leaned his chest against Budo's body, making quite large movements.
"Oh! Very good, very impressive!"
"But, Zebei, you can't stop me like this!"
The martial arts ball protector is on Zebei's waist, and the opponent will take the initiative to use force when defending. However, martial arts does not care about this. In the United States, those people's range of movements when playing is much greater than Zebei's.
From Martial Arts' point of view, Zebei was more or less reserved. He was obviously furious, but he still had a rational mind.
"Snapped!"
Budo dropped the ball forcefully, relying on his body to push Eiji Zebita across the three-point line. The next second, Budo Jinguji, who was in the process of rushing, stopped suddenly, changed direction, pulled back, and raised the ball to look at the basket.
Sawabita Eiji maintained his position in front of him. When he saw Jinguji Budo preparing to shoot, he didn't have time to think too much and pounced on him.
There was no way, there was a huge height difference between him and Jinguji Budo. If he hesitated, it would be impossible to guard against Jinguji Budo's shot.
However, just when Zebei flew to grab the ball, Jinguji Budo quickly collected the ball, dwarfed his body and ran directly to Zebei's armpit. As he stepped forward and crossed Zebei, the basketball in his hand was also thrown towards rebounded.
"Snapped!"
The basketball quickly hit the backboard and bounced out from the front. At this moment, Jinguji Budo rushed into the basket and jumped high, accurately grabbed the basketball in mid-air, and poured the ball into the air. into the basket.
The imaginative self-throw and buckle made the audience burst into amazing cheers.
In the eyes of the audience, Jinguji Budo's series of extraordinary slam dunks seemed to be teasing Zebei's honor. While cheers poured into the field, some people taunted the young Zebei:
"Hey, Sanno, what are you hitting? The ball is gone and you're still jumping ahead?!"
"They've already dunked and they're just standing there stupidly, what are they doing?!"
"Defend, Sanno! If you don't defend, you won't have a chance~"
Budo also heard the ridicule from some spectators. When he turned around and ran back to defend, he glanced at Eiji Zebita, who was looking at him blankly, and thought to himself:
"Sorry! Zebei."
"Please, you and your mountain king, go home!"
...
Under the continuous blows from Jinguji martial arts, Zebita Eiji finally completely lost his fighting spirit.
Seventeen minutes into the second half, Sanno Industries replaced the zombie-like Sawabei and replaced him with Masahiro Nobe.
At the same time, Sanno Industries also changed its defensive strategy against Jinguji Martial Arts, from multiple double-teams at the beginning to sending only Masashi Kawada to defend Jinguji Martial Arts.
Since you can't guard against Jinguji Martial Arts, then simply don't waste any more time!
There were 3 minutes left in the game, and the difference between the two teams was more than ten points. After Masahiro Nobe came on the court, Sanno Industries stabilized in terms of rebounding and offense. Sakuragi was great at rebounding, but Nobe Bian didn't compete with Sakuragi at all, but focused on blocking position.
The matter of grabbing rebounds was left to Kawada Mikio.
21 Kawada Mikio may be at a disadvantage when facing Sakuragi, because his jumping burst is far inferior to Sakuragi Hanamichi, but when facing Nango Koichiro, the situation is different. Nango just resists Kawada Miki The male card position was already trying its best and couldn't jump at all.
It was precisely because Sanwang stabilized the inside line that the point difference between the two teams did not widen further.
Yes, all the Mountain King can do is to prevent the score difference from widening further.
In the final stage of the game, Jinguji Budo finally came into full force, using mid-range shots, three-pointers, and dunks to the basket, single-handedly supporting Shohoku High School's offense.
Under his fierce attack, all the Mountain King could do was to hold on to the score so as not to lose too ugly.
"Beep——"
As the final whistle sounded, Shohoku High School defeated Sanno by 103:89 by 14 points and won the game. They successfully won the top 16 seats in the country and advanced to the third round of the national competition.
