Third POV
It might've just been Day 3 of the Winter Cup, but it felt like Seirin had been fighting this battle for months. Probably because they had faced the team that had beat them back in the summer. Not only that, but the sheer number of teams that had been eliminated just after the first round was insane. Out of the fifty teams that were competing, only 32 of those teams remained. Of course, that included all the teams containing the rest of the Generation of Miracles. As well as the other Bashira twin along with the genius manager of Shutoku.
Now, it was time for Round Two.
With Nijimura having gone to join Alex up in the stands in order to watch and the triple threat reunited with them, the red and black team had gathered once again in order to prepare for going out to to face their next opponent.
"Let's go!" Hyuga announced as he led the team out to the gym.
"Yeah!" Everyone else chimed in as they all followed behind them.
The sounds of the crowds cheering and applauding seemed like it was echoing even louder than it had been the day before. (Y/N) could sense it, now with round one all said and done with it ending in the elimination of a favorite to have been in the top five, at least, everyone was craving for more. That sense of hunger seemed to be more prominent with the teams still playing too.
But that's just what made this whole thing even more fun, in her eyes.
Too bad she wasn't playing in this game...because she had that same craving that everyone else did. And she was hungry for victory.
Once they had made it out to the court along with their opponents, Seirin had begun getting ready on their side of the gym with the starters taking off their long sleeved t-shirts and taking a seat on the bench in order to go over their game plan against this next team.
"Listen close, boys. 'Cause I'll only say this once. Our opponents today specialize in playing a slow half court game. Given the fact that we're a fast-paced team, we'll adjust our starting lineup and see how things play out from there. Hyuga, Izuki, Teppei, Mitobe, Tsuchida, these five will be our starters," Riko hit the main points of the plan to go up against Nakamiya South.
It wasn't going to be like Touou this time where it was mainly Aomine that they had to worry about along with the other surprises that the other starters had for them. But still, that didn't mean this wasn't going to be a formidable opponent; Nakamiya had made it to round two for a reason. And the whole team seemed to realize that too.
"Yeah!"
Now it was time to show exactly why Seirin had also made it to round two of the Winter Cup, and why they were strong enough to defeat the Unstoppable Ace of Touou. Though, something seemed to be bugging the second year captain as he stopped for a second while the rest of the starters made their way out to the court.
