Chapter 123 My childhood friend, who's a setter, has no normal people around him. ...
My childhood friend doesn't have any normal people around him.
Hinata thought he could deal with his childhood friend's family with a normal attitude, but after hearing about the chaotic scene, his mind was still a mess.
He deduced from Tsunayoshi's expression that morning that the wedding might not be so easy, so he simply canceled it!
Today, it wasn't a Guardian who accompanied Sawada Tsunayoshi, but Basil. Hinata had a very deep impression of this person.
Upon arriving in Italy, this blond man cheerfully addressed his childhood friend as "Your Highness," and repeatedly addressed him as "Your Highness."
More importantly, Basil can speak Japanese.
Overall, the Vongola treats Hinata very well. The Guardians and higher-ups know that Hinata is a good friend of the Tenth Boss, while the other employees simply think that since everyone likes the Tenth Boss, we are all good friends.
Hinata tossed the ball to Tsuna, watching his childhood friend jump. His flowing hair danced like a butterfly, and despite wearing a black tracksuit, he looked like a white bird soaring freely in the air.
Hinata always hears people say that when he jumps, it's as if a pair of full wings are spreading behind him. He doesn't have wings; jumping is his tool for flying.
But Sawada Tsunayoshi is different; he doesn't need to jump to have wings.
It wasn't a running start or a jump, so what exactly was the weapon that made Sawada Tsunayoshi fly?
A flash of inspiration struck Hinata, who grasped a clue, but the nimble white bird swept across the sky, leaving not a single feather behind.
He took a new volleyball out of the basket, raised his hand, and tossed the ball towards his childhood friend at the most comfortable height.
The volleyball game was so loud that it attracted Louis and his friends, who were on their way to dinner.
Okay, Louis and Anton came here specifically for this purpose.
Lee overheard the team doctor chatting with Hinata during the day, and the libero made a big fuss, telling Louis and the others that Hinata would stay behind for extra practice after training.
Louis was also impressed by the guy's diligence, but he was more concerned about Hinata's good friend coming over to train with him in the evenings.
The captain and the setter exchanged a silent glance, and from the other's slightly fanatical eyes, they deduced that they were thinking about the same thing.
They were specifically peering through the door at the two people training inside.
"The Godfather looks really good in sportswear," Louis, who is almost 2.2 meters tall, said in a low voice, shrinking himself down.
The two-meter-tall setter felt uncomfortable being squeezed behind the door panel with the attacker, and subconsciously retorted, "The Godfather looks good in anything; the clothes are just to accentuate His Highness's perfect physique."
"Even Godfather is so good at playing ball." Louis didn't want to argue with Anton and focused all his attention on Sawada Tsunayoshi's training.
Anton scratched at the door with his fingernails. He takes great care of his hands every day, but now he was scratching the door so hard that it was making a creaking sound.
"If I could be His Highness's teammate..." He let go of her hand, lost in a beautiful fantasy, "I can't even imagine how happy I would be."
Louis retorted without mincing words, "That's the Godfather. Before you think about becoming his teammate, consider the Guardians. Are you dreaming?"
The setter paused for a second, then exclaimed, "Wow, Your Highness, that was a beautiful shot!"
Louis: ...
Are you going to immediately change the subject?
"The Godfather is so strong. If that punch had hit someone in the face, it would have been a disaster."
"Hmph, those people must have some ability to be dealt with by the Godfather himself." Anton even wanted to take out his phone to take a picture of Sawada Tsunayoshi's spiking posture.
This is the first time I've ever truly agreed with those mobile phone ads that capture the beauty of this moment.
He really wants to document his life now.
The setter's patience was astonishing; inside the stadium, Basil had already taken out professional equipment and was hitting Sawada Tsunayoshi with it.
"You Italians are so flamboyant." A voice suddenly broke in, accompanied by the two men's furtive whispers. Li, clinging to another door panel,
"Isn't there another spot here? Why are you all crammed together?" he asked, puzzled.
"!!!" Anton and Louis were so frightened that they stopped breathing.
"When did you get here?" Louis's heart pounded.
Li looked completely innocent. "I was right behind you all when you were praising how good Godfather looked in his sportswear."
Didn't they hear everything?
Anton was exhausted. "So you found out?"
Tenth Generation, I'm so sorry, I failed to keep the secret.
Li seemed to understand something. "So this is the handsome, dashing, charming, domineering, dignified, gentle, and warm-hearted godfather you all described as the number one person in the world?"
He muttered to himself, "How can all these words appear on the same person?"
But Anton kept nodding as he listened, "I didn't expect you to have such good taste."
plum:.
"You guys are toxic fans, aren't you?" he muttered, unwilling to chat with two people whose filters were as thick as the land area of Italy, and decided to rely on his own eyes to see for himself.
Well, he is indeed good-looking. Those bright, watery brown eyes perfectly match Lee's aesthetic. Just for that reason alone, the Godfather is a good-looking person in his eyes.
The three finished their chat and peeked out from behind the door.
If I don't look up, it's fine, but once I do, I'm met with a pair of blue eyes.
"!" Another gasp escaped his lips.
Basil smiled at the three quails and said...
“You are all welcome to come in and watch. You can also discuss things without lowering your voices. His Highness does not mind having people watching during training.”
It's clear he doesn't mind at all; even when you're taking pictures of him with your camera pointed at him, the Godfather doesn't seem to mind.
The group exchanged glances. Anton gritted his teeth, guessing that the man beside the Godfather probably already knew they were outside. Since he hadn't chased them away, it meant that nothing was wrong. Without further hesitation, he decided to take a closer look at the Godfather. Following Basil's gesture of extending his hand, he was the first to enter.
Someone started the process, and Louis and Lee followed them inside.
The libero was still confused. Wasn't this volleyball hall their club's? Why was this guy acting so naturally, as if he were entertaining guests in his own home?
"Wow, Hyuga can set?"
"I only know a little bit!" Hinata heard the familiar voice and took the opportunity to greet the others.
“A little?” Louis looked at Lee, recalling the typical rhetoric used by people from East Asia, and shook his head.
I don't believe it.
Hyuga changed positions, while Sawada Tsunayoshi was at the back of the court. Without discussing or exchanging glances, the two delivered a quick back kick over the net without reducing the force.
Several people gaped in disbelief. "This is what you call not knowing how to set a second pass?"
They were standing right next to him, not even whispering, so Hinata could hear clearly, "I can only team up with Tsuna!"
Louis wasn't a setter, so he didn't know if there was really such a skill involved. He looked at Anton and gestured for him to comment.
Anton said, "What kind of cooperation is this? Since you can cooperate with the coach and Lord Sawada, it means you can cooperate with others as well."
Hinata didn't react in time, her hand slipped, the ball didn't fly out, and hit her on the head again.
Upon hearing this, Sawada Tsunayoshi walked over and greeted all three of them. Li, who was also called by name, was flattered.
"Do you know me?"
The junior leader nodded, not finding anything amiss. "Li is a very capable free agent; I certainly know that."
The arrow whizzed past and struck him squarely in the heart. Lee staggered back a few steps and whispered to Louis,
"God, now I know why you all like him so much."
He liked to hear compliments, and the fact that these compliments came from his godfather gave Li a topic of conversation with his grandson.
However, Tsuna's focus was still on Hyuga; he was more concerned about his childhood friend than himself.
"Does Anton also think that Xiao Xiang can cooperate with others?"
Hinata only then noticed the difference in how her childhood friend addressed her, and a pang of sadness struck her.
If Sawada Tsunayoshi were to go pro with him, he wouldn't be addressed as "Anton" by the sponsors, but rather as "Anton-senpai" like Hinata.
Although he knew all along that his childhood friend wouldn't stay with him forever, Hinata still felt uneasy. Sawada Tsunayoshi's return to Japan brought him a glimmer of hope, and he couldn't help but feel a little expectant.
What if?
Xiao Gang said he didn't want to inherit volleyball, even though the other party had already said that he liked volleyball. What if there really was a chance?
Hinata knew that his thoughts were unrealistic, but he didn't want Sawada Tsunayoshi to do things he didn't like.
Furthermore, he didn't know exactly what the Vongola did, but Sawada Tsunayoshi had already stated that he didn't like it, so it definitely wasn't a good thing.
When Anton was questioned by Sawada Tsunayoshi, he was tongue-tied and it took him a long time to sort it out.
"The fact that Hyuga can coordinate with His Highness shows that he has mastered the technique. After all, the technique is there and won't disappear. This guy just doesn't know how others handle things, yet he keeps saying he can't be a setter. I think his basic skills are quite solid."
Hinata touched his nose and, together with Sawada Tsunayoshi, silently thanked Akaashi Kyoji.
In the remote Owl Valley, Kyoji Akaashi sneezed, and everyone else became extremely nervous.
"You've caught a cold?!"
Akagi shook her head: "No."
Sawada Tsunayoshi readily agreed, "Yes, yes, he could coordinate with others even in elementary school, how could he not be able to coordinate now?"
The two reached a consensus and kept a close eye on Hinata, who was looking around silently.
Hyuga touched his nose again, his tone unusually calm, and his gaze fell on Sawada Tsunayoshi.
"Does Tsuna remember that Kyōji said he wanted to pass the ball to Bokuto-senpai, so he went straight to Fukutani High School?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi understood, and sadness welled up in his eyes. Louise didn't understand, "What does that have to do with you?"
"Because I also wanted to set the ball for Xiaogang. We agreed that when we made it to the national competition, I would set the ball for him, and then he would spike the ball, which would give the audience across the country a big surprise."
Louis was unaware of this detail. Although he didn't know the specifics, Sawada Tsunayoshi was the godfather, and the godfather was extremely busy, even training at night. Did he really have time to participate in the competition with Hinata?
Tsuna thought about the previous matches, where Hyuga's first pass was impressive and his offensive methods were endless. He also found a suitable way to block, just like Kuroo.
Now he's even learning to spike and serve from Luis.
Only the setter,
He only practices with Sawada Tsunayoshi.
Seeing his childhood friend's sadness turning into anger, Hinata quickly explained.
"I haven't given up the role of setter! If Xiao Gang doesn't believe me, you can ask the King. The King taught me a lot throughout the kingdom!"
"Besides, Kageyama is such a good setter, so I didn't need to use my unfamiliar setting skills before."
He looked at Tsuna cautiously and quickly explained that he hadn't joked about the future. He had no choice but to do something about the Qingcheng match, since the person most familiar with his setting ability was Archer. Using this method in front of him was like giving him an open-book exam.
Sawada Tsunayoshi sighed and frowned. Logically, when the Godfather frowned, Louis and the others should have been afraid, but his expression revealed sadness.
"What if I didn't go back to find you?"
Hinata smiled brightly, "Then I'll be well-integrated with Karasuno-san a year from now."
