"Ara~Aren't Akashi-chan going to play?" After warming up, Oikawa Toru looked at Akashi Asuka sitting aside and suddenly said in awe.
"I'm recharging my energy for tomorrow's practice match, and the opponent in today's practice match is really not interesting."
Not to mention that the current Karasuno has not yet begun to evolve. To be precise, the Karasuno opposite is not even a complete form. Without the two important main members of Asahi Tomine and Yu Nishitani, it is really difficult for Karasuno to let Akashi
Asuka mentioned the desire to play.
"Huh? I thought you and Xiao Feixiong would want to have another "genius" showdown after they reunited after a long separation?"
Akashi Asuka shook his head and said: "My opponent is never a certain person."
······
Oikawa Toru's appearance did not reverse the decline on the court, because before that, Qingcheng had already lost too many points because it was the first time he faced a move like [Monster Fast Break].
But it did make Oikawa Tooru feel the charm of Hinata Shoyo for the first time... although the price was that Qingcheng lost the last point.
After the game.
Oikawa Toru's thoughts were: "That little guy on the other side has a charm that makes people want to hold the ball for him?"
Iwaizumi, who was drinking a green sports drink at the side: "?????"
When Karasuno left, everyone at the Qingcheng Volleyball Hall also ended today's regular training. Before leaving, Akashi Asuka was strictly forbidden by the coach to go home and practice secretly. In desperation, Akashi Asuka could only obey.
Back at Sanhezhuang, Asuka Akashi didn't practice any more. He could only do a little warm-up. After adjusting his condition, he went back to his room to study, write, and rest.
the next day.
Everyone in Qingcheng took a bus to Shiratorizawa High School.
Compared to the laziness and relaxation when dealing with Karasuno yesterday, in today's practice match, even Oikawa Tetsu, who usually has the most playful smile, rarely showed a serious expression.
Different from the daily training atmosphere of Qingcheng Volleyball Club that is full of enthusiasm and passion, although Shiratorizawa's training is equally impressive, when everyone in Qingcheng walked into the volleyball club, they immediately felt an extremely serious atmosphere.
"Please give me some advice!"
Qingcheng players were the first to say hello.
Hearing the sound, the solemn training atmosphere in Shiratorizawa was slightly stagnant, but before the training players could even turn around and take a second look, they heard a stern reprimand like the roar of a Hedong lion:
"What are you doing? Who told you to stop? Those of you who just turned around will practice one hundred more balls later!"
The moment the sound rang out, not to mention the players from Shiratorizawa, even several players from Qingcheng shivered violently.
"Eh... It's so scary! Coach Washi is still as strict as ever!" Oikawa Toru rubbed his arms hard, feeling like goosebumps were about to appear.
"Hmph! Only strict training can create truly powerful players. It's because your usual training is too loose that you keep falling behind."
With a cold snort, a white-haired old man who was only about 1.7 meters tall but had a pair of vulture-like eyes slowly walked over.
Seeing this person, everyone in Qingcheng, including the coach, spoke one after another: "Long time no see, Coach Eagle Craftsman."
"Um!"
The eagle maker Takuji nodded.
Then he looked at Oikawa Tooru with vulture-like eyes, then stayed on Akashi Asuka for a while, turned around and said, "Follow me! They have already warmed up. I hope you can bring us some surprises today."
Everyone followed Washouji Tōji into a separate court inside the stadium, and then the Qingcheng players found the cloakroom with ease and began to change into their jerseys.
Aoki and Shiratorizawa are not only old rivals in official competitions, but also frequent practice matches with each other.
After all, although there are many schools in Miyagi Prefecture, there are really not many schools that are qualified to be rivals for the practice match between Aoki and Shiratorizawa.
Qingcheng really can't beat Shiratorizawa.
But similarly, other schools are no match for Qingcheng.
Therefore, in order to test the effectiveness of training and to test the strength of their opponents, Shiratorizawa and Aoki competed with each other quite a few times.
But usually even in practice matches, the winning-loss ratio between Aoki and Shiratorizawa is as high as 2:8.
Half an hour later.
Everyone in Qingcheng has finished warming up.
Members of the two teams shook hands in front of the net. Everyone else was relatively calm. Only when it was Oikawa Toru and Ushijima Wakali's turn to shake hands, the smell of gunpowder in the air suddenly became stronger.
Oikawa Toru: "(▼へ▼メ) Wait for me, Ushiwaka, we must defeat you today."
Ushijima Wakali: "(_) Oh! Come on then."
······
"The practice match between Aoba Josai High School and Shiratorizawa High School has officially begun. Aojo will serve first." The referee spoke loudly and then blew the whistle.
As the whistle echoed in the stadium, the training match officially began.
Qingcheng's starting players are: setter Oikawa Toru, main attacker Iwaizumi Kazuo, main attacker Akashi Asuka, assistant attacker Kindaichi, assistant attacker Matsukawa Kazushi, and free agent Wataru Okaji.
Shiratorizawa's starting players are: strong support from Ushijima Wakatoshi, main attacker Goshiki Gong, main attacker Shion Ohira, assistant attacker Tendou Kaku, setter Shirabu Kenjiro, and libero Hayato Yamagata.
Neither team took the field, and they all formed a super-attacking lineup with tacit understanding.
The first ball in the game was served by Oikawa Toru.
Standing outside the bottom line of the No. 1 position, Oikawa Toru calmed down a little, then threw the ball into the sky and hit the ball with a sharp swing of his arm.
boom!
The volleyball flew out quickly, leaving a perfect trajectory in the air.
There is no doubt that this was a perfect serve. However, at the moment when the ball was about to hit the ground, a figure suddenly jumped out from the Shiratorizawa Stadium and touched the serve.
This figure is Yamagata Hayato, a free man from Shiratorizawa.
Although the presence of Wakali Ushijima makes the other members of the Shiratorizawa team seem ordinary, in fact, in the Shiratorizawa team that maximizes their individual strength, if they do not have enough strength,
, how could he be selected to become a main player.
Of course.
It is quite difficult to successfully catch Oikawa Tooru's serve when he sees it for the first time.
Even the libero Shiratorizawa, who has played against Aoki countless times, can hardly guarantee that he can perfectly catch the jump serve at this speed every time. Therefore, although Yamagata Hayato hit the serve on the first ball, the volleyball bounced back.
Returned to the venue in Qingcheng.
"Sorry, I didn't pick it up properly!"
"It doesn't matter, pay attention to defense, the opponent's attack is coming..."
Before Shiratorizawa's second passer finished speaking, suddenly, on the opposite side of the block facing them, a figure suddenly jumped up, faced the ball that had just bounced off the king, and slapped it down...
