Chapter 67 At night, I seemed to hear my elder brother's voice. ...
It was as if I could hear my older brother's voice.
Sawada Tsunayoshi turned around warily, but silently looked back at Bokuto's sunny expression. Come to think of it, hadn't he seen his older brother for a few days?
The little leader, having had his fun, felt a little guilty thinking about the large group of people at home. Well, they should all be busy, so he should be fine staying away for a few days.
Over there, Kuroki was seriously explaining the blocking technique to these guys. The young man spread his arms out, swaying them up and down like an umbrella, and then swaying them left and right like a windshield wiper.
Sawada Tsunayoshi reached out and followed suit. He hadn't really tried blocking much, but when it was his turn to be at the net, he would join the others to form a multi-person blocking team.
Tsukishima couldn't quite understand this scene. Just a second ago, the atmosphere was unfriendly, but now they were having a friendly teaching session.
Hinata whispered, "Actually, only Yue was unfriendly."
"?"
"I'm just telling the truth," Tsukishima defended himself.
Bokuto pressed down on Hinata's head with one hand and on Tsukishima's shoulder with the other.
"Kuroo, caught two elementary school students who weren't paying attention in class and were arguing."
Amid Hinata's loud rebuttal and Tsukishima's disapproving gaze, Kuroo smiled slyly.
"Then let's have a 3v3 match. Practice makes perfect."
Sawada Tsunayoshi sighed. He suddenly regretted not sneaking back with Kenma earlier. Where did these people get so much energy?
They've been playing practice matches all day, and they still have to come tonight?!
Tsukishima seemed to think the same way, but because everyone here was a senior, or for some other reason, he didn't say anything.
Lev staggered over and stood next to Tsuna. His height of 1.9 meters meant that Sawada Tsuna had to look up to see his face.
He seemed to have viewed Mukuro in the same way before.
Although Tsuna himself had grown taller, the height difference between him and Rokudo Mukuro remained constant. Later, Mukuro rarely walked alongside him and would often take a step back to follow him. Therefore, it was rare for Sawada Tsuna to remember that Mukuro had actually grown to 1.9 meters tall.
The other person's dark green eyes were gleaming with anticipation.
"Sawada-senpai, are you going up and fight?"
He was just half-dead a moment ago, which is why he's so energetic during training!
The junior leader thought to himself, "This is what I'm complaining about."
"I'm fine. By the way, why does Lev call me senior? We're both in the first year of high school, right?"
Lev thought about the grinding process, "Because my other teammates said I'm very good, that I'm a senior in volleyball."
However, Sawada Tsunayoshi sighed inwardly, realizing that these volleyball club members were somewhat outrageous in their use of honorifics.
"Then Lev can go to the 3v3, I'll just watch you guys fight from here."
Hearing what sounded like something a parent would say while watching their child at an amusement park ride, Tsuna rubbed his hair. Hinata ran over, glanced at him, and, to make sure Tsuna wasn't being difficult or showing any other signs of distress, happily ran onto the track.
Hmm, what a scary group assignment. Sawada Tsunayoshi watched for a while, and every time his gaze shifted to the group, he felt like Kuro was bullying Sho because of his height.
If you watch for a while longer, even your hearing will be polluted.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! Hinata, watch this shot!"
"Wow! Senior Bokuto! That shot was so cool! Can you teach me? Ahhh, I want to learn!"
Two suns were bouncing around nearby. Sawada Tsunayoshi craned his neck to look outside and confirmed that it was nighttime, not noon.
Even sitting on the sidelines made him feel guilty. Tsuna picked up a volleyball, walked to the other side of the gymnasium, and started spiking it up and down against the wall.
During training today, he also noticed that perhaps because his strength has increased too much compared to previous years, he can no longer accurately control the force when playing, and he often hits the ball out of bounds because he doesn't control the force properly.
"...When the impregnable barrier has been built, and it cannot be breached by direct confrontation, then..."
"One more time!"
He couldn't help but get distracted by Bokuto's lecture. They were supposed to be practicing blocking, so why were they talking about attacking? Sawada Tsunayoshi's mind wandered, his hand patting the ball.
"Bang!" "Smack!"
Ouch!
Sawada Tsunayoshi rubbed his head, sat on the ground, staring at the volleyball. He had forgotten to hold back his strength again, damn it.
"Is everything alright, Tsuna?" Hinata's voice came from the other side.
He turned around and saw all six people staring at him, indicating that he had simply been daydreaming, then looked somewhat troubled.
How can I better control my strength?
Although in most cases his opponents would receive the ball because of defense, Tsuna himself knew in his heart that there were several balls that would have gone out of bounds if his opponents hadn't misjudged them.
Tetsuro Kuroo laughed and said, "Now I really believe you haven't played volleyball in the last few years."
However, during menstruation, everyone develops quickly, with a sudden increase in height and a surge in strength like Tsuna's. While these are good things, the physical changes can also make it difficult to control.
"I was quite lucky in that game this morning."
Sawada Tsunayoshi also felt the same way.
"I don't want to think about what would happen if I blasted the ball away. Coach Uga would definitely think, 'This person is a novice and can't even serve properly.'"
Kyoji Akaashi spoke up, "His height is also a factor. After all, Tsuna suddenly grew so tall and didn't play volleyball much during that time, so it's normal that he's not used to it yet."
"Yes, yes, we were just too lucky in today's match."
"I don't think it's entirely a matter of luck. After all, Tsuna, you're much more rational during matches than during training,"
Blacktail shook its head.
"However, it's better to overcome this as soon as possible, otherwise we'll win the Spring High School tournament."
He chuckled and said, "..." Tsukishima quietly spoke up.
"Since you know we're your opponents, aren't you still teaching them a lesson?"
Kuroo Tetsuro had an indifferent expression on his face.
"I'm not only going to teach you how to block, I'm also going to teach you how to control your strength."
He and Bokuto each lifted Tsunayoshi up on one side.
"Come on, if you want to learn to control it, you need to practice more."
They stayed in the gymnasium for a while before going back to shower. In the quiet of the night, Sawada Tsunayoshi rubbed his sore muscles.
Hinata laughed heartily beside him.
"Haven't you played basketball in a long time? Is your body unable to handle it?"
"Not necessarily." The junior leader's expression was subtle.
Because Yun Shou had dragged him into fights so many times for no apparent reason, and because he also had a tutor who couldn't stand him being idle, his body, well, unexpectedly became more resilient.
"By the way, Xiao Xiang, do you know where Chrome sleeps?"
"Girls sleep in a room upstairs."
Tsuna nodded, stood up and made a phone call to Chrome. The girl's gentle and quiet voice sounded, whether from the receiver or beside him, he couldn't tell.
"Boss, did you enjoy training today?"
Sawada Tsunayoshi curled his fingers and rubbed his cheek with his knuckles.
"I'm not happy with training, but I'm happy with playing basketball."
A smile appeared on his face, and Tsuna smiled back. He stood on the balcony.
"How's the room at Chrome's? Did you sleep well?"
Inside the room, the earth fell into deep thought.
"Are they really not a couple?"
Ryunosuke Tanaka waved his hand earnestly, "I think so too! We can call each other at night to catch up, ah, I also want to call Kiyoko-senpai..."
Sugawara thought about the atmosphere between the two of them during the day and felt something was off that he couldn't quite put his finger on. Now, seeing Sawada Tsunayoshi's expression, it seemed like he had grasped something.
"Don't you think he's like a worried mother?"
He pointed to Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had hung up the phone and then started making calls to other people.
The boy seemed to be talking to family, but not an elder, because he himself was extremely worried.
"Everyone's home today?!"
"Senior Hibari is here too?"
"Oh, I see. It's such a pity that I couldn't meet everyone for dinner."
"Okay, I'll listen to it next time I go back. Hayato's new song is sure to be great, I'm already looking forward to it!"
"Did Lambo make this himself? That's amazing!"
"Oh, you're giving this to me?... Oh, thank you, Lambo."
"Chrome is in another room. She's sleeping with the girls. Don't worry, Mukuro. By the way, Mukuro, did you eat well today?"
"Everyone in the volleyball club is great... Great! I'll play volleyball with Takeru next time. Actually, baseball would be good too."
"Big brother can come too, after all, volleyball can be played by many people together."
"Why bring up documents so late? I'm already off work today, Reborn."
...
"It feels like there are a lot of people on the other end of the phone." Yamaguchi Tadashi didn't hear the voice on the other end, but judging from Sawada Tsunayoshi's tone, he estimated that there were more than five people talking to Tsunayoshi.
Hinata sat next to him and nodded.
"There were indeed a lot of people. When I went to Xiaogang's house before, I was thinking of sleeping in the same room as Xiaogang, but there were too many people, so I went back to my own house to sleep."
Sawada Tsunayoshi hung up the phone and walked in when he heard Hinata say that, and he felt a little guilty.
Well, actually, Hayato and Takeru suddenly wanted to stay for some reason, which led to a shortage of rooms. In the end, the understanding Hinata suggested that he could go home to sleep.
Hinata patted the bed next to her.
"Hey, come here quickly."
"Huh?" Sawada Tsunayoshi sat down, puzzled.
He noticed a group of young, enthusiastic high school boys staring intently at him, as if they had a lot of questions to ask.
What kind of late-night chat is this between male high school students?!
Are you girls?
"Boys can have late-night chats too."
Hinata declared confidently, "I also have many questions to ask!"
Tsukishima sat on the other side with headphones on, but didn't actually leave.
"Hey, Sawada, does your family really own a company?"
They still care more about this issue.
Sawada Tsunayoshi changed the subject at noon without giving a direct answer, but it's normal that everyone cares. Apart from his business, there doesn't seem to be anything else.
He said a few words casually, and then the topic turned to his favorite volleyball player and the latest issue of the monthly volleyball magazine. It seems that high school students have endless topics to talk about.
Sawada Tsunayoshi found it somewhat novel; his previous study tours had been nothing short of disastrous, and this was the first time he had experienced such a normal and heartwarming gathering of peers.
