Chapter 152, Sound Horse 4: Hyuga and Kageyama are being scolded. ...
Hinata and Kageyama are being scolded.
It's not exactly getting scolded, but using a new tactic on the field without even giving prior notice is not recommended, especially considering the coach's mental health.
Sawada Tsunayoshi escaped unscathed, although he was also involved in the plot, but...
Wu Yang looked at his two partners who didn't think they were wrong at all and were even baring their teeth at each other, as well as the backup who was obediently lowering his head and reflecting on his actions even though he hadn't been scolded.
The mastermind and those who were dragged into it are easily identifiable.
Actually, Sawada Tsunayoshi was also wronged. After the match yesterday, he wanted to find a place to bury himself and sleep. Considering that Xiao Xiang was his roommate, he waited for a while.
After watching Hinata and Kageyama compete for what seemed like the umpteenth time (he didn't bother counting), the two rivals, who were constantly at odds with each other, finally remembered that they were still teammates and began preparing for their match against Otoko.
Sawada Tsunayoshi stated that it was merely an excuse for the two to develop new tactics. Initially, the battle didn't even involve Tsunayoshi, since the two were quite focused on speed. One would receive the ball and pass it, while the other would fake a dunk and then pass it back. In the end, the one who initially passed the ball would dunk it away.
They originally planned to use Hyuga because Hyuga is fast and can quickly reach the spike point.
So at first, Tsuna was only responsible for passing the ball, and the rest was none of his business.
Although the two had practiced double setters beforehand, their coordination was still a bit rusty when the pace suddenly quickened, resulting in a success rate of about 50/50. Hinata was not satisfied. Kageyama was a perfectionist, so it was one thing. Hinata, although sometimes crazy, would not allow himself to use a tactic with a success rate of less than 60% on the court if there were other options.
"I wish it weren't for tomorrow's match," Hinata said with a hint of regret.
That way, he and Kageyama could have more time to practice and improve their skills.
Kageyama was still deep in thought. His and Hinata's main problem was that the time interval between the relays was too short, making it impossible to catch up in time. So, what if they added another person?
If you pass the spike to a third person, you'll have plenty of time.
He and Hinata exchanged a glance, and Hinata quickly understood what Kageyama was thinking, thanks to their long-standing tacit understanding.
Then, their gazes were unanimously fixed on Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was waiting to serve on the other side of the net.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: ?
That's where that move came from. So, although it seems like these genius players were itching to replicate Inarisaki's move after seeing it, they actually worked hard to improve their success rate.
What the hell?!
Although the training room has been successful several times, it hasn't even been used in a training match. Sawada Tsunayoshi thinks that even if the success rate is high, it's like a flood, okay?!
Fortunately, it worked. If it hadn't, Tsuna thought he would have been so ashamed that he would have wanted to escape from Earth.
"Hyuga actually obediently went to play a different position."
Lev listened to the coach's comments, but soon began to daydream.
He still remembered when they were training together, Hinata told him that he would definitely become an ace, even though the next second he banged his head against the roof.
"Because Shoyo really loves volleyball, he has to prove his worth if he wants to stay on the court."
Kuroo rubbed her chin and said with a smile.
Lev seemed to understand, but not quite. "I never expected he could even make a first pass."
They were targeting Hyuga's spikes just now, and this guy caught almost all of them; his first pass rate is incredibly high.
Yoruichiro was drying his hair with a towel when he heard this and asked in a displeased tone, "Do you have a problem with us free people?"
Lev suddenly felt a phantom pain in his back and shook his head repeatedly.
The spectators watching Karasuno's match from the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Kanasuno doesn't seem to have been affected too much."
"10 is amazing!"
Shimada wasn't so optimistic. "Otoko often comes back from a set down to win two games in a row. Even if he wins the first game, it doesn't mean he can maintain his lead."
Tsukishima Akimitsu, who was standing next to him, wanted to cover his mouth, "Don't make promises you can't keep!"
What they thought of, Karasuno could also think of.
Wu Yang looked at his teammates with a thoughtful expression.
"You guys don't want to be overtaken by two points by Nekoma, do you?"
Hyuga and the others quickly shook their heads; this was absolutely unacceptable!
"The atmosphere in both teams is quite heavy. It seems that Karasuno has not relaxed just because they are leading by one point, and Nekoma is indeed full of energy."
The commentator, observing the serious demeanor of the two teams on the field, intentionally tried to ease the tension among the viewers watching the live stream.
Every time Karasuno competed against Nekoma and the others, he felt like he was being watched by a feline. Tanaka rubbed his goosebumps, looked at the others around him who seemed perfectly normal, and couldn't help but ask,
"Don't you think Otoko looks at us like a cat looking at a mouse?"
Kageyama looked confused and bewildered. "Really?"
Okay, this is someone who didn't feel the sinister atmosphere created by Nekoma at all.
Hinata looked disapproving. "We're crows, birds of prey, not mice!"
This is completely offline.
Tanaka glanced at Sawada Tsunayoshi, who showed no reaction. Sawada Tsunayoshi, seemingly remembering something, spoke in a low, melancholic tone...
"You get used to this kind of thing after experiencing it a few times."
Tanaka guessed that Sawada Tsunayoshi had already adapted during his previous match against Otoko, and marveled at how adaptable the guy was, before focusing his attention on the match.
He really didn't want to be overtaken by Otoko in the second round!
Sawada Tsunayoshi not only felt that the other side of the net was watching him like a tiger, but also that he felt like he was being watched from behind. The thought that those people were actually watching the game obediently gave him a sense of déjà vu that this world was indeed absurd.
In the last game, the opposing team targeted our middle attacker. Karasuno couldn't just let them bully us like that. They're bullying our little middle attacker, right? We'll target them back.
"Could you please omit the word 'small'?" Hinata asked, touched but also saddened.
Nishitani Yu stepped back and said, "Don't worry about it so much, Shoyo."
Soundkoma is indeed consistent, but their weaknesses are also obvious. They are a team centered around their setter, but this core...
My physical strength isn't very good.
If the game goes to the third round, it would actually be more favorable for Karasuno's stamina monsters. However, because it's the third round, people are more impatient and make more mistakes. On the contrary, Otoko, who is more stable, can score more points.
Therefore, Karasuno and his team cannot possibly wait until the third game.
Just as the opposing team made Hyuga receive the first pass in order to limit Hyuga's spikes, Karasuno also began to work on Kozume, making the setter receive the first pass and unable to participate in the attack.
Yinju is good at protecting the setter, but he is also good at disrupting the opponent's first pass and limiting the setter's vision.
Hinata wasn't embarrassed at all. Kenma was just targeting him, so why would he feel guilty about retaliating? No!
Limiting the opponent's ball trajectory has little to do with Tsunayoshi. He did miss volleyball for too long in middle school. Although he still has the skills, very refined skills require daily practice. If he can stabilize his condition in the next few months and coordinate well with Karasuno, then Tsunayoshi will have played to his full potential.
He can spike the ball powerfully, but it would probably be difficult for him to focus on grinding and serving.
Tsuna breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the ball narrowly miss Lev's arm and fly out of bounds.
Hinata happily gave him a high five, "Great high five!"
If Hyuga knew that his original intention was to have Makino receive the ball, but the ball flew all the way to Lev's side and almost went out of bounds, he probably wouldn't have said that the dunk was good.
Fortunately, Lev's judgment hasn't been developed yet; otherwise, with his better ball control, a quick pull of his hand would have resulted in a sure ball going out of bounds.
Sawada Tsunayoshi wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, thinking that he should play it safe and leave the targeting to Asahi-senpai and the others.
Sweat dripped from his palms as he gasped for breath. He was indeed a little too excited about the match against Xiangyang.
Karasuno seemed to be targeting him. Like Hinata, Kenma was no stranger to this kind of targeting, but their actions did have some impact, forcing the setter to run around.
My physical strength is being depleted even faster.
He turned his head to look at the middle blocker who was smiling and high-fiving Tsuna. The other man seemed to sense something, turned his head to meet his gaze, and then gave him an extremely bright smile.
“answer ball”
He muttered something under his breath, but Kuroo didn't hear him clearly and just hummed in confusion.
The grinding stone fell silent again, responding to the ball.
This was Xiangyang's response based on his strategy in the previous game.
Sawada Tsunayoshi had no idea what kind of misunderstanding was going on between the two of them. He tore Hyuga off of himself.
"It's so hot, Xiao Xiang."
This kid is becoming more and more like the clingy person he was when he was a kid.
Hinata declared confidently, "I've regressed to my ancestral ways."
“Atavism is completely unacceptable here!” Sawada Tsunayoshi retorted.
Tsukishima, who switched places with Nishitani Yu, glanced at the two of them and thought, "So you've finally realized you're a gorilla?"
Tanaka felt that this statement was incorrect, "Hyuga's physique cannot be described as that of a gorilla."
The gorilla is huge.
Tsukishima: Is that the main point?
Hinata felt like she had been scolded twice.
After Tsukishima came on, Hinata easily floated to the backcourt. If it weren't for the previous set, Otoko and the others would have thought that Hinata was just preparing to focus on passing.
But after the last game, this guy can pass the ball in the backcourt too!
They could even outmaneuver Sawada Tsunayoshi and Kageyama.
So they had to be wary of Hyuga joining the attack from the backcourt. Nekoma felt the same desolate feeling as Tsunayoshi had earlier, wondering which corner Hyuga would suddenly appear from.
Although they weren't at the net, their presence was still very noticeable.
That was exactly what Karasuno wanted. Kageyama looked at Otoko and his group, who were on high alert, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. Tsukishima teased him for smiling so wickedly.
Tsuna really wanted to say that you're not much better when you smile.
For the sake of team harmony, he simply stood between the two, acting as a firewall.
Tsukishima's spikes aren't very powerful, but they're so light and easy to catch off guard. Plus, after years of wits and battles with Miyagi and Hyuga, he's learned a lot of Hyuga's endless tricks. He's already wicked, and now he can make Nekoma really angry.
The physical exertion required for grinding is also greater.
