Chapter One

Shohoku High School in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The sky was as clear as a sheet of blue paper, and the thin white clouds, as if melted by the sun, floated slowly with the wind.

The school infirmary.

A young man in a student uniform lay on the bed, rubbing his head with his hands, and slowly opened his eyes.

What caught his eye was the snow-white curtain.

"This? Here?"

He propped up his body with difficulty and spoke with effort, then he opened the curtain with his hands and looked out of the window.

The scene in front of him surprised him.

The large characters of Shohoku High School in Kanagawa Prefecture filled his vision.

In an instant, the exhaustion from his body disappeared.

Unbelievably, he said, "No way, did I actually come to the world of Slam Dunk?"

This person's name is Long Yan.

That's correct. He is also a time traveler.

Before the time travel, he was watching the anime Slam Dunk at home.

While watching it with passion, suddenly, the screen flashed with a dazzling glare, and he was forcibly sucked into the world of Slam Dunk.

At this moment, Long Yan didn't care about being shocked.

Memories played in his mind like a marquee.

Long Yan, an international student at Shohoku High School, is 1.8 meters tall, weighs 68 kg, and is a beginner in basketball...

He lives in Japan.

He stretched out his hand and squeezed his face hard.

"Hiss! It hurts!"

The pain signified that he wasn't dreaming but had indeed traveled through time.

Unable to help himself, he muttered in his heart, "It seems this isn't a hoax. I have truly traveled to the world of Slam Dunk."

After calming down the restlessness in his heart, the door of the school infirmary opened.

"Student, are you feeling better?"

A middle-aged man in a white coat, with a doctor's certificate on his chest, entered and asked about Long Yan's condition with a smile.

Long Yan was momentarily stunned.

"Ahem, thank you, teacher. I'm fine now," he replied politely.

In his memory, today was the first day of reporting for the basketball team, and he suddenly fainted, perhaps due to time travel.

Seeing this, the school doctor stretched out his hand and placed it on Long Yan's forehead, then checked again and said with a smile,

"Student, you are fine now. You are a member of the basketball team. You should work hard this year!"

After Long Yan fainted, Akagi and the others had sent him over, and upon finding that there was nothing serious, they went back to training.

Naturally, they regarded Long Yan as a member of the basketball team.

Long Yan also suddenly realized that it was Akagi and the others.

Interesting.

He had long wanted to meet the legendary gorilla, as well as Hanamichi Sakuragi, Kaede Rukawa, Ayako, Haruko...

After bidding farewell to the school doctor, he was going to take a look at the basketball court.

Just as he stepped out of the school infirmary...

[Ding!]

An extremely cold mechanical sound resounded in Long Yan's mind.

[Host awakening detected]

[Activate the system now]

[System binding]

"What? A system?" Long Yan was shocked when he heard the system's voice.

"Is this the welfare of a legendary traveler?" As we all know, travelers usually have their own systems, and now he was looking forward to what kind of system this would be.

[Congratulations to the host]

[Awakening god-level basketball training system]

Upon hearing the system's voice, Long Yan was slightly surprised.

'A god-level basketball training system? What is this?'

[The system will arrange training tasks, and the host will be rewarded as long as they complete them on time]

As if sensing the doubts in Long Yan's heart, the system began to explain.

"Oh? Missions?"

Just as Long Yan was still in doubt,

[Ding!]

[Mission: Meet all the basketball team players!]

[Reward: A novice gift pack]

"What the! Why is it so sudden?" The task didn't seem as difficult as he had imagined.

But what would this novice gift pack be?

"Forget it, let's go to the basketball hall first, and see what it is after completing the task."

If he wanted to meet the basketball team, it was only natural to go to the basketball hall.

He stretched and, relying on his memory, walked in the direction of the basketball court.
