Slam Dunk: Aomine Daiki Template

That afternoon.

All the competitions on the first day of the national competition came to an end.

The teams that were considered strong by major media before the game basically advanced as expected.

Of the 59 schools that participated in the competition, 27 teams were ruthlessly eliminated.

Among them, the most dazzling one is naturally Shohoku High School.

Although Shohoku is participating in the national competition for the first time, the strong strength it has demonstrated on the field has already made other teams feel apprehensive.

In a hotel room, the atmosphere was somewhat serious.

There were more than a dozen people sitting in the room at this time.

In front of them was a TV.

What was playing on the TV was the recording of today's Shohoku vs. Toyotama match.

This group of people is none other than Sannoh High, a team known as the "strongest high school team in the country."

Sannoh's coach is named Goro Domoto, who looks like Sendoh, with a mop of hair and a mustache, and is probably in his thirties.

He held the remote control and fast-forwarded, rewound, or paused from time to time.

Goro Domoto said calmly, "First, carefully observe the opponent you are responsible for marking, understand what the opponent is best at, what he is worst at, as well as his movement patterns, habits, and personality on the court."

His tone was calm, but his words were full of details.

Then he continued, "After reading it carefully, I am conducting research."

...

The other side.

When Shohoku and his group were packing up and preparing to go back to the hotel, they met someone.

He is a man of similar age to Mitsuyoshi Anzai, and also has white hair.

It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that he is an old man. He is probably around fifty years old, but he is rather thin and looks a little old.

Hohohoho…

Seeing this person, Mitsuyoshi Anzai couldn't help but laugh. "It's Kitano! I met you here."

The old man opposite also spoke up. "Yes! If there is nothing else, let's find a place to reminisce about the past!"

The Shohoku people watched all this from the back and whispered to each other.

"Who is that person? He seems to be very familiar with Dad," Hanamichi Sakuragi asked in a low voice.

The first and second grade players all shook their heads, looking confused.

Third-year students Takenori Akagi, Kiminobu Kogure, and Hisashi Mitsui recognized the newcomer.

The same goes for Ayako and Kanon Shimizu, who are team managers.

Kanon Shimizu introduced, "That person is a former classmate and good friend of Coach Anzai, named Kitano. He was also the coach of Toyotama's basketball team, but was later forced to resign due to some decisions made by the school leaders."

Everyone in Shohoku widened their eyes when they heard her story.

They had just finished a game with Toyotama and now they met Toyotama's former coach.

"Toyotama's former coach!"

Hanamichi Sakuragi's eyes sparkled, and he said, "He's definitely not as good as my dad's coach. Toyotama was shut out by us. He went to my dad, is he trying to take revenge in secret? Like putting him in a sack... throwing him into the river to feed the fish or something..."

Everyone: "…"

Everyone looked at Hanamichi Sakuragi with a strange expression.

Takenori Akagi couldn't help but scold: "Idiot, how could such a thing happen?"

Kiminobu Kogure's mouth twitched, and he smiled awkwardly and said, "Sakuragi... This is not a TV show. What you think will never happen."

Hisashi Mitsui looked at Hanamichi Sakuragi with disdain. "What on earth is going on in this guy's head?"

Ryota Miyagi moved a few steps to the side, away from Hanamichi Sakuragi, muttering, "I'd better stay away from this guy!"

Ayako held her forehead and said helplessly: "How did this person grow so big?"

Kaede Rukawa sighed secretly, then spread his hands and said, "Big idiot."

Kanon Shimizu then explained, "That's not right! Sakuragi, when Coach Kitano was the coach, Toyotama was ranked in the top eight in the country!"

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became quiet.

Hanamichi Sakuragi's eyes widened in disbelief. He pointed at Kitano who was chatting with Mitsuyoshi Anzai in front of him and said, "What? The top eight in the country? That skinny old man?"

Ayako immediately covered Hanamichi Sakuragi's mouth and said, "Keep your voice down, I'm not skinny, I'm in normal shape!"

As she spoke, she secretly compared Mitsuyoshi Anzai and Kitano.

Soon, Mitsuyoshi Anzai told everyone that he wanted to get together with old friends, and then left first.

Everyone looked at each other, and then returned to "Chidori-sou" together.

...

In a tea shop.

Mitsuyoshi Anzai and Kitano sat side by side in a quiet corner of the bar.

Kitano was the first to break the silence and said, "Anzai, I didn't know you were still a coach. I just heard that you quit your job as a college coach, but I didn't expect you to go to a high school..."

Kitano sighed slightly as he said this. "If I were still a coach at Toyotama, we two classmates would have been able to meet."

Hohohoho…

Mitsuyoshi Anzai chuckled a few times, then said, "I was just asked to do this. I originally planned to take a sinecure as a high school coach and relax a little."

Hearing this, Kitano smiled and said meaningfully: "Then the value of your sinecure is really great."

He muttered to himself, "I don't believe you. How could a useless person be trained to be like this?"

As if sensing the distrust in his old friend's eyes, Mitsuyoshi Anzai explained: "It was like this at the beginning. Shohoku's current achievements are all due to their own efforts."

"Is that so? You must have contributed a lot!" Kitano said with a deep look in his eyes. "I saw today's game. None of the Shohoku players are ordinary. I don't believe you are not tempted."

At this point, he added, "Not to mention the third-year students in Akagi, No. 11 and No. 10, they all have extraordinary talents. If they are trained well, they will definitely achieve extraordinary things in the future."

Mitsuyoshi Anzai nodded, agreeing with Kitano's point of view. "That's right, Kaede Rukawa and Sakuragi have complementary talents. As long as they really grow up, they will definitely become shining new stars."

Kitano turned to face Mitsuyoshi Anzai, staring at him intently, his eyes seemed to have become even deeper. "Yes! I admit that. But...where is that number 9! Where did that number 9 come from? I've never heard of a demon appearing anywhere before."

Hohohoho…

Mitsuyoshi Anzai couldn't help laughing when his old friend mentioned Jack Carter. "You noticed it too!"

Kitano rolled his eyes. "It would be strange if a player like that didn't notice it! He almost shut out the entire team by himself. If I can't see that, I'd better not be a primary school coach."

Mitsuyoshi Anzai took a sip of tea and was silent for a long time before he slowly said, "His name is Jack Carter. He came to Shohoku on his own initiative. There is not much I can teach him. What he needs now is not a coach like me, but a real opponent."

...

The atmosphere in the hotel room where Sannoh and his group were staying was particularly solemn.

The Sannoh team members just watched the entire game between Shohoku and Toyotama.

But at this moment, the room had fallen into an eerie silence.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the figure wearing the No. 9 Shohoku jersey on the TV screen.

Everyone seemed to be still immersed in the shock of the game that had just happened and was unable to recover for a while.

Strong, very strong, too strong.

They never imagined that Shohoku actually had such a strong player.

Most importantly, Shohoku defeated Toyotama with a score of 143-0.

Even Sannoh couldn't do this.

Although they had heard about it before, they all fell silent when they actually saw how Shohoku shut out Toyotama.

Although they don't have the same vision as the coach, they have been working on the court for many years and can clearly know that the main reason why Shohoku was able to shut out Toyotama is because of the number 9.

At this moment, the name Jack Carter has been deeply engraved in their minds.

Goro Domoto had a serious expression, a hint of solemnity between his brows, and looked at his players and said, "Well, we will meet them tomorrow, tell us what you think!"

...

The other side.

Chidori-sou Inn.

Everyone in Shohoku gathered together and watched the game videos related to Sannoh.

What was being played on the TV screen was last year's national tournament semi-final match, Sannoh High vs. Kainan University Affiliated School.

Throughout the game, Kainan was suppressed by Sannoh.

Shinichi Maki was completely restricted by the opponent's point guard, and even his shots were difficult.

More importantly, Kainan's players were no match for Sannoh's players.

It can be said that Sannoh's strength has crushed Kainan in all aspects.

Especially Sannoh's ace, Eiji Sawakita.

The strength he displayed on the court shocked everyone in Shohoku.

Be it speed, skills, or basketball IQ, all of them made the Shohoku players nervous.

Of course, Jack Carter and Kanon Shimizu are not included here.

Jack Carter looked at Eiji Sawakita on TV with an interested expression on his face.

Eiji Sawakita is indeed very strong, and is one of the strongest people Jack Carter has ever seen.

If he had not already fused the template to 100%, it would have been quite risky for him to lead Shohoku to defeat Sannoh.

This doesn't mean that he himself is not strong enough, but that Shohoku's overall strength is not up to par.

Just like today's game against Toyotama.

If the Toyotama players were stronger, it would be difficult to keep a clean sheet against them.

But...

"How about it, Ace...what do you think after watching the video of this game?" asked Kanon Shimizu.

Jack Carter just replied calmly: "The strength is not bad, much stronger than these guys."

As he said this, he pointed to the Shohoku group.

Everyone in Shohoku's face suddenly darkened.

Kanon Shimizu's eyelids also jumped, and she quickly interrupted, "I'm not asking about that, I'm talking about Sannoh's No. 9, he has the same number as you!"

Jack Carter had a calm expression and said slowly: "His talent is top-notch, but he probably hasn't used his full strength in this game!"

Hearing this, everyone in the audience was shocked.

What?

Haven't used your full strength yet?

"Jack Carter, what do you mean by this?" Kiminobu Kogure asked.

Hisashi Mitsui also asked: "How do you know he didn't use his full strength?"

Especially Kaede Rukawa.

He stared at Jack Carter even more sharply, wanting to hear how Jack Carter would explain.

The others also looked at Jack Carter quietly, waiting for his next answer.

Jack Carter said: "Didn't you notice that he kept playing at the same frequency from beginning to end?"

Ah?

Hearing his words, everyone was stunned.

With Jack Carter's reminder, everyone replayed the game footage.

Only then did they realize that Eiji Sawakita was indeed just as Jack Carter said, always maintaining a certain frequency in playing.

Hiss...

Everyone in Shohoku gasped and looked at Jack Carter in disbelief.

At this time, Kanon Shimizu asked: "Now Ace finally has a good opponent, huh!"

Opponent?

Jack Carter looked at Eiji Sawakita on TV, and the corners of his mouth curled up, and then he slowly said: "I admit that he has some strength, but..."

Jack Carter's eyes flashed, and he said meaningfully: "After all, he is just a mortal."

Mortal?

The other people in Shohoku all looked at Jack Carter in surprise.

Annoying?

Hanamichi Sakuragi thought to himself, "Does this 'Godless Ghost' hate that guy?"
