Chapter 141: Shiratorizawa vs. Otokoma (1) Match Alert
When Inarizaki and Kanagawa Daiichi finished their match and came over, the match between Otokoma and Shiratorizawa had already started. Miyaji was still chewing a banana that Alan had found from somewhere. The skin was slightly oxidized, but there was no difference after peeling it off. Miyaji happily accepted it.
"...What's going on now?" Miyaji and Miya You arrived relatively late due to an interview, Kita-senpai arrived a little earlier than them, and Alan and Kakuma went to the rest area to sleep because they were too sleepy.
In the end, there were only three of them who came to watch the game.
The score on the court was clearly visible [9:3]. Although he didn't know the style of Nekoma's team, anyone who could reach the second day was no ordinary player. Kita Shinsuke frowned, "Kenjo-kun's serve just ended."
"No wonder," Miyaji said, "that guy's serve is really hard to receive."
They have asked about this in various ways.
Gong You then explored another angle, "Why do the people from Otokoma look so strange?"
No, he thought for a moment and then asked again.
"Is it paused now?"
Hadn't Nekoma broken serve? Common sense dictated that he should have pressed on.
Kita Shinsuke: "...The situation is a bit complicated."
After saying this, the two juniors in the team looked at him in unison, their eyes shining, reminiscent of a fox in the forest. Kita Shinsuke continued, "Otokoma's libero is very powerful."
"I know that," Gong You interjected, "Yejiu-senpai's catching skills seem about the same as Jingdashan's."
The perennial champions Jingtashan are certainly not just strong on offense; their exceptional defense is another factor. Gong You witnessed Ye Jiu's defensive prowess during training. After reflecting on it carefully, he concluded, "It'll feel reassuring to be their partner."
Miyaji misinterpreted his meaning: "Are you saying that Akagi-senpai is not good enough?"
"Huh? How could I?" Gong You shouted, "It's just a feeling! A feeling!"
Fortunately, they didn't squeeze to the front, otherwise the spectators who came to watch the game nearby would probably think they were disturbing others. Kita Shinsuke held them both down - Miyaji and Miya You were sitting on each side of them now, and their voices sounded like seven hundred ducks singing at the same time in his ears.
"Akagi, Tokito, and Yaku," seeing the restless brats finally calm down, "are all very powerful opponents."
But even liberos who play the same position have different characteristics, and Kita Shinsuke felt it when Nekoma scored the three-pointer.
This team's first pass level is definitely at the top of the entire Spring High School, or in other words, it can even surpass Inarizaki in this aspect... Of course, he believes that his team is slightly better in overall strength.
However, in addition to the setter who thinks in the front, Ye Jiu's position in the team is also very high - he is the "vein"
Blood circulation requires veins, and Ye Jiu plays such a role in Yinju.
That's why it feels incredible.
At this time, the noisy stadium began to disperse a little. Originally, people gathered around Yin Ju - Gong You initially thought that they were surrounding the coach and thinking about the next tactics. When the crowd receded like a tide, he finally saw the person who was surrounded.
It was a long night.
"Are you hurt?" Miyaji asked for him first.
Kita Shinsuke: "No," he hesitated a little, "It's probably a temporary pain caused by catching the ball too many times."
So after scoring, they did not rush for success, but instead took advantage of a timeout opportunity.
The veins that paved the way for blood began to have spider-web-like cracks.
He also looked towards the field and saw Ye Jiu sitting next to Coach Yinju, with his head lowered and a towel draped around his neck. He was too far away to see the other person's specific expression.
It's never a pleasant experience.
Kita Shinsuke: "Kenjo-kun sent out a total of 7 balls." He suddenly said.
Miya You was about to say that they had already experienced the long serving games of Shiratorizawa's setter, but he found that the respected senior had a focused look and a serious expression.
"Two of those goals were scored with no-contact serves."
Precise and directly pressing on the bottom line and the hearts of the audience.
"The rest," Kita Shinsuke added after a moment's thought, "including the first two balls, were all jump serves without exception."
It was completely different from the multiple ball types of serves they had encountered. Previously, when Kenjo Shinichi focused on one type of serve, even if the power was very strong, a capable libero could catch the ball one after another, even if the angle was bad and it flew too high.
But at least it was connected.
But this time the serve was different. Even though there was no fancy way, it was just the simplest, jump serve as usual. In the end, Ye Jiu sent the ball to the setter despite the pain.
It's really unusual.
"He's targeting the free men."
“…”
After listening to this, Miyaji was silent for a while, and turned his gaze strangely to Miyayoshi's face.
Gong You:?
Gong You: "What's that expression on your face? No, I just like doing it this way. No, I didn't teach him that!"
Miyaji gave an expression that said "I don't believe it" and "How are you going to argue?"
Gong You: ...
If Senior Bei hadn't been sitting in the middle, he would definitely have added some exotic color to Miyaji's face, such as panda eyes or something.
Gong You gritted his teeth.
Gong You chuckled.
Finally, they both turned their attention back to the court.
However, one of the twins misunderstood his brother.
Although it is true that Gong You challenged the libero during the training camp, from Kenshiro Shinichi's perspective at the time, he only felt that the other party was doing something strange.
*
After serving, Kenjo Shinichi walked to his position. Because Otokoma called for a timeout, Shiratorizawa now had some time to breathe.
But in the final analysis, the amount of exercise they did today was not as much as Yinju, or in other words, they did not move as many times as Yinju.
Kenjo Shinichi said that if he wanted to play a strong attack, he would start with the serve. He was standing in the second position today, and his own serve was after Tendo in the first position. Generally speaking, the powerful server would be put first, but Shiratorizawa's tactics today were obviously different.
The time goes back to before the show started.
"Senior Tiantong."
When Kenjo Shinichi called out to people, the others who had been paying attention to him shuddered when they heard the name. Yuno Hama even showed an expression as if to say, "Is this hell?" His fingers kept tapping the keys, and his expression was a little distorted.
They had not officially played at this point and were doing normal stretching in another empty hall, so the use of mobile phones was not prohibited.
At the same time, the cheers and other voices coming from the official venue were a bit noisy. When Midorikawa received his text message, he had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation.
The cheerleading team started rehearsing before the players entered the venue. In addition to the usual slogans, Shiratorizawa also recruited players from the wind band to cooperate. Fortunately, Inarizaki was in another venue, otherwise who knows what this place would become.
There will be four teams competing at the same time in Harukaka. They are in the second game. The previous game was played between Oudai and Fukuda Soso, which is also another team that advanced from Group C. In other words, no matter who wins or loses between Shiratorizawa and Otokoma, the opponent for the next game has already been decided.
Xinghai went to buy souvenirs before the game, but when he came back he was ordered by the coach to rest, and finally had to go back in a bad mood.
Before leaving, he made eye contact with Shiratorizawa's cheerleaders, but he was not familiar with the others, so he didn't understand what the green-haired boy who was standing among a group of people shouting slogans and staring at his phone had seen that made him show such a strange expression.
At this moment, Midorikawa's phone contained the message that Yunohama had been trying to convey.
[Xiao Hai: Jian Chengjun has really mutated! ]
Midorikawa: ...
He felt a little out of touch with the times.
What mutated?
Perhaps sensing his doubts, Yunohama sent another message.
Xiao Hai: He's become really weird. Anyway, you'll know when he goes on stage.
But even though he said that, Midorikawa held his breath and concentrated, but still couldn't find out what was different about Jiancheng.
We can only communicate when the whole team returns.
Midorikawa put down his phone and started cheering for the players.
"Shiratorizawa——!"
"Shiratorizawa——!"
"Invincible—victorious in every battle—"
In addition to the uniform shouts, there was also the Shiratorizawa Academy school song as the background sound.
This made the support from Onomaru fall at a disadvantage. Although it was a public school, being located in Tokyo, Onomaru did quite well in terms of campus culture, which could be seen from the size of its support group.
It is much better than Karasuno, which is also a public school, but it is a little inferior to a large-scale support school like Shiratorizawa.
Although they tried their best to encourage the players who were about to play, they were still at a disadvantage to a certain extent.
"I really don't know whether it's us or them who are playing at home."
Someone complained.
"Well," someone else chimed in, "They're a wealthy club after all. Our plan is just to make the players feel like they have someone standing behind them."
"... Let's repeat that sentence again," the person who started the conversation whispered. "It feels super cool."
"Nekoma-Nekoma, charge forward!"
"Neonoma, Neonoma, attack!"
It's just like the support in a fight.
*
The content of the communication between Jiancheng and Tiantong was actually very simple.
"--opportunity."
There is no need for Tendo to serve and score, but please do something else.
Find the opportunity for Yejiu to catch the ball.
In other words, he needs one goal, or preferably two goals, to verify his idea.
Tendou: "No problem, Shinichi-kun." His eyebrows curved, "I'll leave it to 'senpai'."
It was a rare occasion for such a silly junior to ask for help, and Tiantong suddenly felt motivated.
Shiratorizawa's tactic today is a strong attack. As the main player, Tendo did a good job in controlling the force, so Kenjo Shinichi's plan also became smooth.
First, the baseline serve disrupted their plan and forced them to adjust their positions.
And then there is…
——Cause cracks in the veins responsible for blood circulation.
