Chapter 121 Very good, very energetic

“Hey, hey, hey, the latest news!” Shinji Koganei of the Seirin High School basketball team rushed into the court and said to everyone who was chatting during training, “When I came in just now, I found that the coach seemed to be in a good mood! Maybe we can catch some fish during today’s training!”

“Oh? In a good mood?” Hinata Junpei’s expression suddenly became serious. “How do you know he is in a good mood?”

“It’s easy to tell,” Koganei Shinji was a little confused by Hinata Junpei’s question, “I just saw the coach jumping into the locker room~ Doesn’t this mean that the coach is in a good mood?”

“It’s over,” Hinata Junpei said with the expression I expected, “Don’t blame me for not warning you, everyone be careful today, I think we are going to be in big trouble.”

“Um, what’s wrong, Hinata-senpai?” Kagami Daiga looked at Hinata Junpei with some confusion.

“Idiot! Haven’t you figured it out yet?” Hinata Junpei’s nervous dark personality came out. “Every time Reiko shows this expression, she’ll find us an opponent that’s hard for us to beat. Didn’t you see us last time we went to fight Kaichang? He started humming a song right after school! Now he’s jumping around. I’m afraid this is an opponent we can’t beat at all.”

As he spoke, Hinata Junpei showed an expression of letting go, and his personality returned to normal: “Forget it, there’s no need. Anyway, we can’t deal with it. There’s no point in being careful. Let’s just let it go!”

“Yoshi, Mina-san~” Just as Hinata Junpei chose to lie down, Aida Reiko’s sweet voice came from behind them like a death knell, “Everyone is here~ That’s perfect, let me announce something. I have selected the second practice match opponent for you. Friendly reminder, it’s still the Kanagawa team~”

“Kanagawa?” Kuroko Tetsuya had a bad feeling when he heard it, and asked tentatively with the last glimmer of hope, “Coach, are you talking about Poseidon Junior High School?”

“Hmm~” Reiko Aida shook her head with a sly smile, “No, although Poseidon Junior High School was one of the top four teams in the country last year, they missed out on the Generation of Miracles and can no longer provide us with enough training~ The opponent I’ve chosen for you is Shonan High School!”

“Damn it!” Hinata Junpei’s face turned pale

“Are you kidding me, coach?” Yi Yuejun’s pupils trembled.
“Coach Aida, are you awake?” Kuroko Tetsuya said more directly than the others, “I don’t think it’s appropriate for us to go head-to-head with Shonan High School right now!”

“Hmm?” Reiko Aida frowned slightly, recalling her conversation with Katsuya Aida last night.

……

“Dad, we won!” Aida Reiko proudly stood in front of Aida Kagetora and said, “Our opponent is the national powerhouse, Kise Ryota from the Generation of Miracles!”

“Oh, great, great, keep it up.” Katsuyori Aida responded perfunctorily.

“Hey, Dad, what do you mean by this?” Aida Reiko asked unhappily, “We defeated the Generation of Miracles, isn’t that worth celebrating?”

“Is it worth being happy about?” Aida Katsuyori said in a bored tone, “Apart from the name of the Generation of Miracles, Kise Ryota is just a guy who has only been playing basketball for two years.”

“Tsk.” Aida Reiko curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and then said in a shocking tone, “I also feel that it’s not enough to beat the newcomer, so I have sent a letter to Shonan High School! As long as they agree, I can compete with Kaneki Ken this weekend!”

“What?” Aida Kagetora, who was lying on the sofa, sat up in shock. “No, I disagree! You are being irresponsible to your players! They are not ready to face Kaneki Ken! Well, if you want to fully train the players before the tryouts, I can contact Takagi Tsuyoshi of Poseidon Junior High School for you. They added a lot of strong players last year, enough for you to train!”

“I don’t want it!” Aida Reiko was very dissatisfied with Aida Kagetora’s doubts, “When we challenged Kaijo before, you didn’t agree either, but we still won in the end, didn’t we?”

“Alas… Reiko, you will regret this!” Katsutora Aida sighed, stopped arguing, and sat back on the sofa.

……

“coach!”

“Hmm?” Aida Reiko was awakened from her thoughts by Kuroko Tetsuya’s voice, “What’s wrong?
Kuroko Tetsuya saw that Aida Reiko had not listened to what he had just said, so he could only persuade her again earnestly: “I say, it is not appropriate for us to go head-to-head with Kaneki-san now! Kaneki can be said to be the first one to awaken among the Generation of Miracles. He was the guy who defeated the Generation of Miracles and became the captain of Teikou in his first year! In addition, after two years of further training outside, his strength has reached an unfathomable level…”

“Hey, Kuroko, why do you always make your opponents sound so scary?” Before Kuroko Tetsuya could finish his words, Kagami Daigi patted Kuroko Tetsuya on the shoulder with a nonchalant look on his face, “Isn’t it just the Generation of Miracles? It’s not like they haven’t won before.”

“In that case, we are not without the ability to fight…” As the captain, Junpei Hinata was also somewhat tempted at this moment, “If we can defeat two teams from the Generation of Miracles before entering the qualifiers, it will indeed help boost morale…”

“Okay, it’s decided then!” Seeing that everyone from the captain to the main general supported her decision, Reiko Aida made the decision directly, “We will go to Kanagawa again this weekend! If we win, we will have two days off!”

“Yes!” When everyone at Seirin High School heard that they could have a day off if they won the game, they all cheered.

“Alas…” Kuroko Tetsuya looked at the coach and the captain, all of whom were a little swelled up by the previous results. He knew that he couldn’t persuade them this time, so he could only sigh and say, “Coach, captain, you will regret it.”

“I am the head coach of Seirin High School, Kuroko, I am!” Reiko Aida, who was in high spirits, felt that the face of Kuroko Tetsuya in front of her was gradually overlapping with that of Aida Kagetora, and said angrily. …

“Oh, everyone’s here.” Anton Mitsuyoshi smiled and opened the door of the stadium. “That’s great. I have something to announce to everyone.”

As he spoke, Anton Mitsuyoshi opened the folder, adjusted his glasses and said, “Seirin High School from Tokyo District sent us a letter, applying to have an exchange match with us this weekend, and the venue will be at our school.”

“Seirin High School?” Kaneki Ken’s brows twitched slightly, “Isn’t this a coincidence? Isn’t this…”

“What? Kaneki-san knows about Seirin High School?” The experienced Mitsuyoshi Anton immediately caught the change in Kaneki Ken’s expression.

“Hmm, I’ve heard a little bit about it.” Kaneki Ken snorted. “It’s a newly established school last year. The original captain, Teppei Kiyoshi, retired due to injury. The core of the current team is the phantom sixth man from Teiko Junior High School and Kagami Taiga who returned from overseas. By the way, they just defeated one of the players of the Age of Miracles, Ryota Kise, last weekend.”

“Oh, you don’t seem to have heard of this, Kaneki-san.” Anton Mitsuyoshi said with a meaningful smile, “Then let’s test this team’s strength this weekend.”

“Yes, coach.” Seeing Kaneki Ken’s noncommittal attitude, everyone responded in unison.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and in the blink of an eye it was the day for the battle between the two sides.

“Is this Shonan High School?” Kagami Daiga looked around curiously. “Although it’s a public school, it doesn’t look shabby at all.”

“Long time no see, Tetsu-kun.” Taoi Satsuki’s voice attracted everyone’s attention, “Ken-kun sent me to pick you up.”

“Xiong… Mr. Xiong…”

The players of Seirin High School were extremely shocked by Momoi Satsuki’s grand vision, and they all turned to look at Aida Reiko.

“Assholes, what are you looking at!” Reiko Aida said angrily.

“Thank you Momoko-san.” Kuroko Tetsuya ignored his useless teammates and stepped forward to express his gratitude.

“Haha, you’re welcome!” Taoi Satsuki smiled and made a gesture of invitation, “Everyone from Seirin, please come this way. And… Coach Aida Reiko, who is only a B but has some skills~”

“Asshole! You’re so great!” Reiko Aida was choked by Momoi Satsuki’s words and her face turned red.

Soon, the players of Seirin High School were brought to the gym. Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was pretending to be training but was actually absent-minded, rushed forward and looked up and down at everyone from Seirin High School.

“Tsk, is this the guy who defeated the Generation of Miracles? He doesn’t look that great…” After looking around, Sakuragi Hanamichi said with some disappointment.

“Damn it, who do you think you are when you talk big like that?” Kagami Daigo had long been annoyed by Sakuragi Hanamichi’s gaze on him like a monkey, and now he was completely ignited by Sakuragi Hanamichi’s words.

“Hahaha, since you asked sincerely, I will mercifully tell you.” Sakuragi Hanamichi wiped his hair in a showy manner, “I am the direct disciple of Gilgamesh. Together with Gilgamesh, I led Shonan High School to defeat all the Miracle Generations and became the basketball genius Sakuragi Hanamichi who dominated the country!”

“Golden Sparkle?”

“Personal disciple?”

“Sakuragi Hanamichi?”

The players of Seirin High School were stunned by Sakuragi Hanamichi’s series of dirty words and were speechless for a moment.

“Very good, Sakuragi, very energetic!” Just as the scene fell into silence, the voice of Kaneki Ken, who had just finished the ball control training, came from the side, “But we need to be polite to the visiting guests.”

“Oh.” Sakuragi Hanamichi retreated to the side in disappointment, but when he saw Akagi Haruko who had just arrived from the sidelines, he was revived with full health.

“Long time no see, Kaneki-kun.” A complex look flashed across Kuroko Tetsuya’s eyes. He took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed slightly to Kaneki Ken.

“Yeah, it’s been a long time since we last met, Kuroko.” Kaneki Ken stared at Kuroko Tetsuya’s stubborn pupils with interest, “It’s great that you can come to Shonan, and you are very energetic.”
