After four years, the Generation of Miracles had reunited.
For audiences who had been following this series, this was undoubtedly the best farewell gift.
Tendou opened his system and could see his popularity experiencing a small surge.
Perhaps because this was the final season, the promotional efforts were intense, attracting many new viewers to the series.
Hanamiya Makoto arrived quickly, though he looked rather unwilling.
"Don't look so reluctant. This is a major matter concerning our Japanese basketball's dignity."
Aida Riko got angry just seeing him.
She obviously hadn't forgotten that this person was the one who injured Kiyoshi Teppei.
"Tch, who cares about that stuff?" Hanamiya Makoto gave her no face whatsoever.
Rather, he was actually looking forward to Aida Kagetora committing seppuku.
He wanted to see if it was really like what they showed on TV dramas.
"If it weren't for our leader speaking up, I wouldn't join up with you people."
Yes, without Tendou speaking up, Hanamiya Makoto would never join the Dragon Slayer Sword team under any circumstances.
"Cut the unnecessary talk and let's start quickly. Our ti is limited."
Tendou made Hanamiya Makoto behave, then turned to ask, "Momoi, are all the ga tapes ready?"
"Yes, they're all prepared, and I've marked the important parts."
Momoi worked quickly—the tapes were ready by the ti Hanamiya Makoto arrived.
Of course it wasn't complete—she had selected so relatively important gas, with the rest still to be found.
"When appropriate, you can also look up Nash's high school ga footage."
"Nash? Why Nash specifically? What about the others?"
"Finding Nash's is enough. I'm going to train now—you guys analyze."
Tendou left after speaking. He ca over just to make this bad boy Hanamiya cooperate a bit.
Having taken 6 million from soone, he had to be responsible.
"Got it."
Hanamiya Makoto found a spot and started watching Momoi's ga tapes.
Joining him were the father-daughter Aida pair.
These three, plus Imayoshi Shoichi who would arrive later due to being delayed, would form a temporary coaching staff.
Back on the basketball court.
Hyuga Junpei, Takao Kazunari, Wakamatsu Kosuke, and others had also arrived, forming a 15-man roster.
"I won't waste words. Let's begin."
", Akashi, Aomine, Murasakibara, Midorima, Kise, Kuroko, Kagami—seven on one team. The rest of you figure out the opposing team yourselves."
"Yes!"
Hyuga Junpei nodded in agreent.
In terms of age, Tendou was only a second-year this year, younger than Hyuga Junpei and the others.
But sohow, they were all willing to listen to Tendou's words, naturally treating him as the team's leader.
"What's this? Doesn't this make us all practice partners?"
"Then which one of them do you want to replace?"
Takao Kazunari really wanted playing ti, but now it seed Wakamatsu Kosuke was right.
These few people couldn't replace any of the Generation of Miracles' positions.
"Basic tactics remain unchanged—continue playing our familiar fast breaks."
During the Teiko period, what they were best at was also fast break pressure.
With Tendou and Akashi as two ball-handling cores, plus Kise as a half-core, their fast breaks had always been opponents' nightmares.
"What's left is—Akashi, you know spider web defense, right?"
"Of course, that's one of your Kirisaki Daiichi's signature tactics."
"Good, during scrimmages I'll coordinate with you, and you'll coordinate with too."
Fast break counterattacks after steals were the most efficient scoring thod.
Tendou's Six Eyes and Akashi's Emperor Eye—working together, they could intercept most of the opponents' passes.
"Those are the basic tactics. Let's start training. Kise, Kagami, Kuroko—you three rest on the sidelines first."
"Yes!"
No one had any objections to Tendou's arrangents.
The Dragon Slayer Sword team operated normally.
This training session lasted from morning to night.
This week, they basically wouldn't go ho except to sleep.
However, since Kise now lived in Kanagawa, Murasakibara in Akita, and Akashi in Kyoto, traveling back and forth was troubleso.
Therefore, they chose to temporarily stay at Tendou's house.
Midorima and Aomine were in Tokyo, so logically they didn't need to stay overnight at Tendou's house, but perhaps because they hadn't trained together like this in so long, everyone ultimately made the sa choice to temporarily live at Tendou's house this week.
Evening.
At Tendou's house.
"Is being a celebrity really this profitable?"
Aomine's first words upon entering were this.
This was way too big and luxurious. His father had worked his whole life just to buy an apartnt in Tokyo.
Yet Tendou at just over ten years old already owned his own house, and the area was more than double his own ho!
"As long as you have brains, isn't making money simple?"
The implication was mocking Aomine for having no brains.
The charcoal-head took a while to react, then angrily went to demand an explanation from Tendou.
After bathing and eating, the young n ran to the garden to look at the stars.
"So nostalgic."
"I should thank Aida-san for giving such an opportunity."
Akashi looked at the friends beside him, feeling emotional.
"That's right. It seems we've never been together like this before, have we?"
Kise thought back and realized that even during their Teiko days, they had never lived together like this.
They had never had training camps together.
Teiko was too powerful—they didn't need to train with any other teams because the strongest were all in their ranks.
"Be serious. The upcoming ga is a huge challenge for us."
Only the deadly serious Midorima could say such things.
Murasakibara?
He was eating snacks on the side—just bought from the supermarket, a full ten bags.
Aomine?
This guy had discovered many female celebrities' photo books in Tendou's house and was looking at them with great interest.
"Don't always have such a serious face, Midorima. That's exactly why you keep losing to ."
Tendou brought over a bunch of drinks to distribute to them.
"We are the strongest. As long as we're together, failure cannot approach us."
As confident as always, even facing the renowned Jabberwock team.
"That's right."
Akashi took the drink and started sipping.
As long as they were together, there was nothing to fear.
Suddenly, Akashi thought of sothing and suggested, "How about we all sleep together tonight?"
"Huh? Tendou, does your house have a bed that can fit 6 people?"
"Who would have such a thing? Even if I did, I wouldn't sleep in the sa bed as you guys."
"Let's sleep together in the living room. Just like a school trip."
This was what Akashi wanted.
Then the young n moved the sofa away, laid out bedding in the living room, and lay down.
In the real world, the cara looked down from above at these colorful sleeping bags arranged together.
Not finding anything improper, audiences watched with only emotion and joy in their hearts, then shouted "Gaia!"
Because before they knew it, the fourth season had already aired two episodes.
