Two days later.
Kanagawa Arena.
There were many more people visiting the gymnasium today than in the past.
The reason is very simple.
Because today is the day when Shohoku High School plays against Kadono High School.
The last time Shohoku played against Miuradai, Shohoku defeated Miuradai with a score of 125 to 61.
When this report came out, it immediately attracted the attention of many college basketball teams and sports newspaper reporters.
After all, Miuradai is a team that claims to be aiming to defeat Kainan.
There is another thing that has attracted the attention of major college basketball teams, and that is Shohoku's No. 9, Jack Carter.
The name Jack Carter also began to spread among basketball teams of major universities.
Anyone who has paid the least attention to basketball newspapers will know that a mysterious No. 9 player has appeared in Shohoku.
A newcomer who has no game record before high school but is incredibly strong.
Undefendable shooting, offensive genius, a superstar who took Kanagawa by storm.
In short, it's just a bunch of impressive titles.
Therefore, basketball teams from major universities also sent people to watch Shohoku's second game to confirm the truth of the news.
In the same place, for Shohoku, there is no difference except the opponent.
If I have to say something, it is that there are more people coming to watch the game today than expected.
As soon as Shohoku and his group appeared in the gymnasium, they immediately attracted the attention of the people around them.
All the people blocking Shohoku and his group consciously made way.
"That's someone from Shohoku High School!"
"They're so tall!"
"That one in the front must be Takenori Akagi! He looks like someone who is not easy to mess with."
"Who is Kaede Rukawa?"
"He's the former junior high school MVP, and the very fast Ryota Miyagi."
"That's him, the red-haired guy. He dunked the basketball over the other guy's head."
"Where's No. 9? Didn't they say that Shohoku has a No. 9 player? Where is he? Why don't I see him?"
The people around were talking one after another.
Shohoku and his team quickly arrived at their locker room and waited for the game to begin.
At the same time.
On the train to Kanagawa Arena.
"Jack, really, we are going to be late again!" Kara Smith sighed sadly and tiredly.
Jack Carter ignored her complaints and said directly: "Kara, you are becoming more and more nosy."
"Ah! Jack, you dare to call me nosy? I'm going to ignore you." Kara Smith turned her head away, her cheeks puffed up.
The commotion here also attracted the attention of a person in the next carriage.
At this time, it was Ryonan High School's captain, Uozumi.
The reason he took this train was, of course, to watch Shohoku's game.
It's just that he didn't expect to meet someone from Shohoku here.
He looked down at the time on his watch, then turned to look at Jack Carter and Kara Smith who were making noise there. "The game has already started, why are they here?"
But soon, he seemed to figure it out. "Is this guy late again?!"
When I think back to the practice match, and the last match.
This guy always seems to arrive in the second half of the game.
Thinking of this, Uozumi's eyelids couldn't help but twitch wildly, and he complained in his heart: "How on earth did Akagi allow such a guy to join the basketball team?"
As time passed, the train finally arrived at Kanagawa Gymnasium.
Kara Smith pulled Jack Carter, trotted out of the car, and rushed to the gymnasium as fast as possible.
"Jack, hurry up, the game has already started for a long time." Kara Smith pulled Jack Carter and jogged.
This scene also attracted the attention of many people around.
"Strange, they're wearing school uniforms, they must be from Shohoku!"
"Didn't Shohoku just go in?"
"That guy is so tall!"
"Not only is he tall, he's also very handsome."
"That girl is so cute!"
"Damn it! I envy that boy so much."
Ignoring the comments of people around them, Jack Carter and Kara Smith jogged all the way and soon arrived at Shohoku's locker room.
However, there was no one in the locker room at this time.
After a simple tidying up, Kara Smith pulled Jack Carter and ran towards the exit leading to the stadium.
At this time, most of the seats in the basketball hall were already filled.
It was many times more lively than the last time.
The flashing white lights and the constant "clicking" sounds around were enough to prove that there were quite a few reporters coming here.
The colors in the audience were also varied, with members of college basketball teams wearing uniforms of various colors.
At this time, there were about 5 minutes left until the end of the first half.
The score between the two sides was temporarily fixed at 56 to 13.
Shohoku 56 compared to 13 Kadono.
Such a score also shocked the players from all the schools who came to watch.
Kadono was beaten so badly that they had no power to fight back.
No one expected such a situation.
At this time, people from the basketball teams of various universities who came to watch the game paid even more attention to Shohoku.
Outside the boundary behind the Shohoku basketball hoop, there were now two more teenagers.
They didn't care about other people's eyes at all and sat down directly on the ground, as if they treated this place as their spectator seats.
The two boys were one tall and one short.
The taller boy was about 185cm tall, tall and thin, with delicate and gentle looks, and a bit of elegance. His eyes occasionally revealed a bit of innocence, and there was always a harmless smile on his face.
This person is none other than Soichiro Jin, a member of the Kainan University High School basketball team, who plays as a shooting guard.
The shorter boy was recognizable by his flamboyant and somewhat arrogant face.
This person is none other than Nobunaga Kiyota, a freshman on the Kainan University High School basketball team.
Someone in the audience noticed this.
When they saw the clothes the two boys were wearing, they exclaimed.
"Isn't that Kainan's?"
"I didn't expect that even people from Kainan would come to watch this game."
"Isn't that a three-point shooter, Jin?"
"Are they here to see Shohoku too?"
Kiyota Nobunaga and Soichiro Jin ignored the comments in the audience.
They watched the game on the field without any change in expression.
Soichiro Jin looked at the score on the electronic scoreboard and murmured, "Shohoku is quite capable."
Nobunaga Kiyota snorted in disdain. "What's so great about that? If we were facing an opponent like this, we would have already surpassed 100 points."
Just at this moment.
At the entrance to Shohoku's player tunnel.
Jack Carter and Kara Smith also walked out of the passage.
As soon as the two appeared, they were noticed by the sharp-eyed audience.
One is handsome and the other is beautiful.
The two of them looked really eye-catching.
In addition, the sudden appearance of two people in the originally empty place naturally attracted a lot of people's attention.
At the beginning, not many people paid attention to this place.
But soon, almost everyone looked over here.
"Who are those two people?"
"That girl is so beautiful, is she an angel?"
"That boy is so handsome! He's wearing a Shohoku uniform. Is he also a member of the Shohoku Basketball Team?"
"Strange, why haven't I seen these two people before?"
Jack Carter and Kara Smith came to Shohoku's bench under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Kara Smith was still the same. She came to Coach Anzai, bowed and said, "Coach Anzai, I'm sorry, we are late."
The Shohoku people standing by couldn't help but twitch their lips.
They didn't know how many times they had heard such words. No wonder everyone felt like something was missing today.
This has almost become the catchphrase of the Shohoku Basketball Team. It feels uncomfortable if we don't hear it at least once a day.
Hohohoho...
Coach Anzai was still the same. He laughed a few times, then waved his hand and said, "It's good that you're here. Just watch the game first!"
Jack Carter had already found an empty seat and sat down.
He took a look at the current score and immediately lost interest in the game.
However, he had no interest in the competition, but some people were interested in him.
Somewhere in the audience.
A young man wearing a green team uniform with the word "Shoyo" printed on the left chest and a pair of black-framed glasses stared straight at Jack Carter and muttered to himself, "Is he Jack Carter?"
This person is none other than Toru Hanagata, a member of the Shoyo High School basketball team.
His purpose of coming this time was to confirm the truth about Shohoku, and also to confirm the Shohoku No. 9 who was reported to be so amazing.
However, when he saw Jack Carter appear at this time, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
How strong can a person who has no sense of time be?
"I didn't expect you would come all the way to watch the game, Hanagata." Just then, a voice sounded behind Toru Hanagata.
Hanagata turned his head and immediately recognized the person. "Uozumi. That's right, the opponent is too weak. This kind of b*****d is not even qualified to force out our regular players."
Uozumi smiled slightly when he heard this. "Maybe!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Jack Carter who was sitting on the Shohoku bench. "He really didn't play."
"Did you lose to that late guy last time?!" Toru Hanagata asked.
He also wanted to know what Jack Carter was capable of.
Uozumi said, "You'd better not underestimate him, Hanagata. That guy is more terrifying than what the reports say."
Toru Hanagata stared at Uozumi for a long time, then retracted his gaze and said calmly: "Shoyo will not lose."
The Shohoku game continues.
As expected, Hanamichi Sakuragi fouled out before the end of the first half.
However, Coach Anzai did not seem to intend to send Jack Carter out and directly replaced Hanamichi Sakuragi with Kiminobu Kogure.
Jack Carter also had no objection.
After all, he really had no energy to face such an opponent.
If he really went up, the opponent would probably be beaten and forced to give up halfway.
As time goes by, every second.
The Shohoku players on the court were like wild horses that had broken free from their reins, madly attacking Kadono's basket.
The score between Shohoku and Kadono was also getting wider and wider.
Kadono's players were all in a listless state, gasping for breath, as if they would faint at the next second.
Anyone with a discerning eye could already see that Kadono had given up the game.
Finally, Hisashi Mitsui made the final buzzer-beating three-pointer to end the game.
In the end, Shohoku finished the game with 153 to 24.
Shohoku won a great victory.
