Chapter 163: Shiratorizawa vs. Owl Valley (2) Match Alert
[“Scoring consecutively—!”]
In the noisy venue, he seemed to be the only one in the spotlight, and the commentary continued.
"Unparalleled, the serve is as precise as a doctor who has performed countless surgeries!"
[“It’s like the true demon king has descended—!”]
In contrast to the bright number "5" on Shiratorizawa's scoring post is the glaring "0" on Okitani. Since the start of the game, they have not been able to successfully block Kenshiro Shinichi's serve.
The terrible setter... Xiao Jian gritted his teeth and looked at the opposite side, who relaxed a little after seeing that he had successfully won this ball.
The opponent was heading towards the baseline from the start. After successfully scoring three jump serves, he switched to a side spin serve. This time, he seemed to have added a hook serve, but the power was not reduced at all. The already terrifying spin was combined with that kind of deep-rooted power.
The sudden evolution of the serve completely disrupted Xiaogu's original response measures, and he could only fall into a passive situation. If he couldn't receive the ball, it would be fine, but the side spin ball still made them change direction after touching it. They could touch it, but the effect of changing direction was minimal.
——'A being that plays with opponents.'
As if he had sensed the vigilance against him, Jiancheng Xinyi stopped spinning the ball for a moment, tilted his head, and waved to the cheerleaders behind him. After causing a burst of screams, he turned around, looking completely in high spirits, or perhaps declaring war on Xiaogu.
The psychological warfare started when he served the ball. The blue-haired boy didn't show much expression, but at this moment, any emotion he showed would be particularly obvious.
The referee hasn't blown the whistle yet.
Xiao Jian took a deep breath, not sure whether he was relieved or what. Although he encountered this kind of serve at the beginning of the game, it would be the most terrifying thing if he encountered this kind of serve at match point.
One of their tactics was to delay Kenjo Shinichi's serve as much as possible, but it was just a matter of trying - the opponent almost never had a bad touch, and he never made a mistake at the end of the game, not to mention that he would not be affected by external forces.
A true serve devil.
"Calm down!" the coach yelled from the sidelines. "Don't get carried away! Don't be so stiff!"
After the opponent scored continuously, the expressions of everyone in Xiaogu were not very good. They were at a disadvantage from the start and the anxiety hidden in their hearts began to grow.
Xiao Jian subconsciously wanted to apologize - even though Kenjo Shinichi didn't serve the ball to him, as the libero who shouldered the heavy responsibility of defense in the team, he would inevitably feel a huge pressure. But just as he was about to speak, he heard a loud "Okay!" from Kuroo, who was standing next to him at the number one position.
The ace wasn't knocked down. Instead, he opened his arms and faced Shiratorizawa, pressing his center of gravity downwards. "Come at me, Shinichi!"
“…”
Although there were other whispers in the stadium besides the cheers and support from both sides, Kuroo's voice was quite loud, making some people in the stands laugh.
Inarizaki and the others were concentrating on watching the competition, but when they heard this, their expressions couldn't help but fall apart for a moment.
"He's really a natural," Alan didn't know what he was feeling. Kenjo Shinichi's serve would be a formidable enemy for any team that had played against him. It was an extraordinary existence. Although Inarizaki had also worked hard in this aspect, in the final analysis, except for Miya You, the others did not have the ability to score continuously that could compete with him.
Moreover, unlike Gong You who likes to target the libero, Kenjo Shinichi is more likely to put pressure on the entire team.
When I think of that scene, my scalp tingles. It's as if there is an invisible pair of hands pressing down on them, and coupled with the terrifying force, fear seems to be the opponent's true psychological state.
It’s just that we are all experienced people, so we won’t back down.
Gong You: "Amu has this kind of personality, sometimes he can be annoying."
Miyaji glanced at him and said, "When did you call Bokuto like that?"
"Just now," Gong You said, "He's a real man." The Kansai accent sounded a bit funny, but after a few seconds, Gong You added, "Of course, I didn't mean to praise him."
“…” Miyaji rolled his eyes.
"But will Jiancheng listen?" Akagi thought for a moment, "There's no benefit in serving to him."
If the ace catches the ball, it will not only have the ordinary effect of boosting the opponent's morale. If it were a setter like Fukuda Soso, he would probably just laugh it off. Of course, you have to continue to use jokes to win. Although Kyuuba is very childish and has that cartoon-like depressed state, no one here thinks that he is the type with low willpower.
The excitement mode corresponding to the negative state also gives them a headache.
"Yes."
The one who spoke at this time was Bei, their successor captain. His expression was calm, but his tone was firm. His eyes were fixed on Kenjo Shinichi who was still standing at the serving point on the court. This serious look made the twins, who were about to quarrel again because of Miyaji's eye roll, stop pulling each other's hair.
So, under everyone's gaze, Kita Shinsuke slowly said, "Shinichi-kun is as manly as Katsuki-kun."
“…”
What a weird description! For a moment, this sentence flashed through everyone's mind. Then Miyaji took advantage of the twin brothers' inattention and flicked his head.
Under Gong You's pained expression, he slowly opened his mouth, with a sense of calmness and indifference, "It's all your fault that you infected Senior Bei."
"?" Gong You's expression was confused.
"Poor Chinese language skills." Miyaji continued.
“…”
After a brief silence, Alan snarled, "You're not much better. You've been completely fooled."
The little drama outside the field did not affect the confrontation between the players on the field. After Kuroo said "Come at him", apart from the slightly distressed members of the Owl Valley team, there was Shirabu standing at the fourth position with an obvious expression.
"...You wouldn't really be provoked by such childish provocation, would you?" he whispered.
Kawanishi Taichi was also silent for two seconds.
Finally, with some kind of determination, he said quietly and quickly, "It's not impossible."
“…”
Shirabu felt his head starting to hurt.

If the farmer could still accept the task now, a familiar pop-up window would probably appear in front of him.
Vincent wants to go down the mine with you.
【Reward: XXX】
[yes/no]
But now all the farmer can see is the volleyball in his hand and the excited wooden rabbit opposite him.
“Beep!”
When the whistle blew, he lowered his eyes, thinking that the tense atmosphere was not friendly to the players. The 8 seconds were like a countdown, and the stopwatch in his mind began to tick.
He took two steps forward and met the gazes of everyone in Xiaogu head-on.
——The farmer is not the type to make difficult choices, and there is only one ending to the mission.
The volleyball was thrown to a usual height. He raised his head, jumped, pulled his shoulders back in an arc like a bow and arrow, and then straightened them the moment they touched the volleyball.
Make contact with the yellow-blue sphere with your palm to throw it.
"A bouncing float!" the commentator exclaimed. "After the sidespin, Jiancheng changed his serve again. Was it to counter a challenge from Kuroo?"
As Kenjo Shinichi served the ball, Kuroo took two steps forward, intending to catch the ball.
But the ball swayed and floated in the air twice, and at the same time it touched Kuroo's palm, it flew to a position out of bounds behind him.
Konoha Yuyue, who rushed over, was still a step too late.
[“Score again!”]
"A fantastic serve from a player from Jiancheng!"
The air in Owl Valley was stagnant for two seconds. Except for Kuroo who was a little dazed, Washio and Akaashi both tilted their heads and looked back. Kozue pulled Konoha up and looked at Kuroo.
"Come back next time!"
On Shiratorizawa's side, Shirabu relaxed a little, but still kept his lips tense and clenched his fists, "That idiot... was really obedient."
Kawanishi Taichi patted him and said, "Even if you know which direction Jiancheng will serve," he closed his eyes and said, "you still can't catch it."
The people of Shiratorizawa also deeply understand this.
However, unlike their expectation that Konagawa would fall into a passive state, the ace of Owl Valley put his hands on his hips, then did a warm-up movement. His smile widened a little, but his eyes were filled with serious fighting spirit: "The next ball should be aimed at me too!"
"...Kuroo-senpai," Akaashi's eyes widened a little in disbelief, and then Washio beside him held him down.
The look he gave Kuroo was one of complete trust in Ace.
"This is our Owl Valley's Ace," Washio said, "Trust him." (Note 1)
Akaashi: ...
Akaashi nodded, stood back in his original position under the referee's gaze, took a deep breath, and also focused his attention on Kenshiro Shinichi, who had been standing on the serving point like an immovable fortress and scoring continuously since the start of the game.
...But, will Jiancheng really continue to serve at Bokuto? He had some doubts in his heart, but he suppressed them.
The referee blew the whistle, and the Shiratorizawa players once again put their hands behind their heads.
Kenjo Shinichi's serve game continues.

Nagano.
"That kind of serve is way too much," Ri Chao sighed as he looked at the top left corner showing the score for the current game. "Are you playing volleyball with this kind of monster?"
Xinghai ignored him and continued to stare at the TV screen. The broadcast was focused on Kenshiro Shinichi who was standing at the serving point.
The young main attacker frowned, thinking that from this angle he couldn't see the opponent's expression at all.
Seeing that his brother ignored him, Ri Chao didn't bother to show off. He took a sip of the lemonade that his mother had just brought him and started watching the game. However, after a few seconds, he slightly widened his eyes, and at the same time as Xiao Gu's score changed from "0" to "1", the commentator's voice reached his ears.
"With all his might, the ace caught Shiratorizawa Kenjo's jump serve with his chest!"
“Then he scored with his own spike!”
On the court, Kyuuba, who successfully slammed the ball over Shiratorizawa's block, gave his teammates a thumbs up.
"That kind of ball can be caught with the chest!" Kyuuba laughed, "Bokuman successfully saved the day--!"
It seems like there is really a Superman cape behind him.
But he was only handsome for no more than two seconds, and immediately Kuroo bared his teeth. Seeing this, Konoha and Konoha quickly surrounded him.
"Bokuman's transformation time is only two seconds?" Washio said sarcastically.
Akaashi: ...
There's no need to tell jokes at a time like this, senior.

Kenjo Shinichi's serve game ended.
