"I'm sorry, I kept everyone waiting for so long," Shiratorizawa's Ojo Assistant jogged over, "It's just that something was delayed."
Black Beard Master nodded understandingly: "Your school has invited many schools to participate in the training this time. There will definitely be a lot of things. Of course I understand."
Assistant Ojo wiped his sweat while guiding Inarizaki and the others to the school dormitory: "Considering the number of people for this training, Coach Washi has directly applied to the school board to open another dormitory building to provide more space for everyone for this training. comfortable environment."
"That's great," Kurosu Houtun said with a smile, "Coach Washiji is really generous this time. It seems that both the coach and the school board are full of confidence in this year's volleyball club."
Assistant Oshiro was laughing, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart. It was indeed Inarizaki. There was no fuel-saving lamp from top to bottom, and his smiling look really made him look like a fox.
The young boys following Coach Kurosu were not paying attention to the conversation between the two adults. The third graders were fine, but the first graders would have run away long ago if the timing hadn't been inappropriate.
“Wow——,” Gong Yoo shook Gong Zhi’s shoulders, “Damn, their school is really big.”
Gong Zhi sat on the bus for more than six hours and was shaken to the point of vomiting by Gong Yu: "Hey, we are also private, okay? What is there to envy?"
The Gong brothers were fighting in front, while Tenwon Sakuya was following closely behind Kakuname with a tired look on his face.
Yin Dao was a little worried: "Is there any problem with Tianyuan?"
Kakuname raised his eyes from the phone screen and replied lazily: "He, he was very excited these days because he was going to the training camp. As a result, he fell asleep as soon as he got in the car and he still hasn't woken up."
Just as he was talking, he reached out and grabbed the backpack strap of the person behind him: "This way, don't get lost."
Tianyuan Shuo also half-closed his eyes, hummed a few words in his mouth, and was pulled away by Jiao Ming with great obedience.
Ginjima Yui looked at Kakuname and then at Tianyuan, and complained to Akagi Lucheng next to him with a tangled look on his face: "When did they become so familiar?"
Akagi Lucheng shrugged, saying that he didn't know either.
Such a group of athletic men whose heights were generally far above the passing mark were walking on the street, and many students in Shiratorizawa who happened to be finishing get out of class involuntarily chose to avoid them.
Really, the aura around him was too overwhelming.
They all wore dark red sports jackets and white sweatpants, but they all wore loose-fitting styles as if they were walking on a catwalk. Their body language was relaxed, and they didn’t feel embarrassed at all as if they were guests at other schools. Not only that, if you look carefully at the two If you look closely, you will find that the Inarizaki Men's Volleyball Club has a surprisingly large proportion of faces.
"That one seems to be Inarizaki. I saw them last time when I went to cheer for Shiratorizawa."
"Are those two the strongest twins in high school? They look exactly the same except for their hair color."
"Oh oh oh, I know, I know, the one at the front is Inarizaki's ace Kimura! I've seen him in the IH competition before, playing at the court next to Shiratorizawa."
Kimura, who was walking in front with a serious face, suddenly sneezed: "Ah sneeze!"
Tajima Koji and Sakai Takaji next to them looked horrified: "Coach!! Kimura has a cold!!"
Coach Kurosu was also startled by Kimura's sudden sneeze, and hurriedly urged the players to go to the dormitory and put away their luggage. The temperature in Hyogo Prefecture and Miyagi Prefecture are quite different, so if the players really catch a cold, the gains outweigh the losses. .

"Hey, Inarizaki is finally here. Long time no see, Kurosu."
Kurosu smiled and greeted the coaches standing on the edge of the field, and then bowed respectfully to Washouji Takuji and Nekomata Ikashi: "Thank you for your care for the following training camp."
Coach Nekomata smiled warmly and waved to him, indicating that there was no need to be polite. Washiji had a cold face and his eyes had already drifted to the Inarizaki player behind Kurosu: "Where did you find another good player?" seedling?"
Kurosu followed Washujia's line of sight and looked at the blond boy in the team, and rubbed the back of his head with some embarrassment: "I didn't recruit Tenin-kun, he transferred from the United States next semester."
"Oh?" Nekomata raised an eyebrow in interest, "So you play volleyball in the United States?"
Kurosu nodded and asked Inarizaki behind him to go warm up first: "Yes, I also played in junior high school. Last semester, I was already a regular member of a strong local volleyball team in the United States."
Mao Mao sighed: "Not bad, not bad, I have played in the United States."
The cat glanced at Washiji who was sitting next to him again. Although his expression was still unmoved by external objects, the two of them were old acquaintances. Naturally, he could guess what he was thinking. He originally invited Inarizaki just because he wanted to I want to have more opportunities to compete with different universities from all over the country. I didn't expect that a player who came back from the United States would pop up. It seems that the harvest from this training camp will be greater than imagined.
The main players of Inarizaki were warming up under the leadership of Assistant Kobayashi. The volleyball was skillfully thrown into the air, and then slammed to the ground by the main players, making a heavy impact.
"Tianyuan, pick up."
Tianyuan Shuo was hiding behind his teammates secretly rubbing his eyes when his name was suddenly called by assistant Xiaolin. He subconsciously took a big step forward, took off hard, and smashed the ball near the baseline with a very beautiful posture.
Assistant Xiaolin was not satisfied: "Tianyuan, please wake up. Your spiking accuracy was a little too low today. We can't be like this in the game later."
Tianyuan Shuo also knew that he was in the wrong. He blushed and lowered his head to apologize: "I'm very sorry."
The group of live treasures standing behind Assistant Xiaolin showed no sympathy at all, and laughed at their sleeping companions with exaggerated expressions.
Kuroo Tetsuro, who stood aside and watched for a while, heard clearly the conversation between Inarizaki, and couldn't help but take a breath and looked at the young tamer next to him: "What? Aren't they satisfied with this accuracy? ?”
Guzhao sat beside him and sighed, regretting once again why he didn't refuse Coach Nekomata's invitation to bring him to the training camp. Look at Shiratorizawa and Lionheart Heavy Industries on the left, and look at Inarizaki on the right. I just hope that today Coach Nekomata won't let him play.
After the players had basically finished warming up, several coaches quickly drew lots to decide the opponents for the first game in the morning.
"Coach——," Gong Yoo squeezed in beside Kurosu, "Who is our opponent in the first game? I've been holding it in all the way. If I don't play, my legs will get rusty."
Kurosu opened the note in his hand, paused, and showed it to Gong Yoo with a subtle smile: "You can see for yourself."
Gong Yoo snatched the note from his hand and announced loudly: "Our opponent in the first game, um, Shiratorizawa, is Shiratorizawa."
Akagi touched his chin and sighed: "I thought we would fight Lionheart or Nekoma, who are good at defense, first, but it turned out that we and Shiratorizawa were fighting against each other."
"However, even Shiratorizawa," the big ear trainer looked at Tenwon Sakuya who was standing aside and listening to their chat with some confusion, "this competition may not be comfortable."
Tianyuan Shuoye: Well-behaved.jpg
**
"Du - the first game, Inarizaki, Hyogo Prefecture vs. Shiratorizawa, Miyagi Prefecture, both sides lined up and showed their back numbers."
Shiratorizawa sent the third-year Koizumi Kunihiko (MB), the second-year Ushijima Wakali (WS), Tendo Kaku (MB), Ohira Shion (WS), and the first-year Shirabu Kenjiro (S) , the free agent is second-year Hayato Yamagata (L).
Inarizaki also has a new lineup, third-year players Kimura Soya (WS), Tajima Hiroji (MB), second-year player Aran Oshiro (WS), first-year players Rintaro Kakuna (MB), Miyayu (S), the free agent is the same sophomore Akagi Rucheng (L).
"Please give me some advice!"
"Please give me some advice!"
The guessing game between the captains of both sides ended, and Inarizaki was lucky enough to get the starting right.
As the current ace and captain of Inarizaki, Soya Kimura has the right to serve first. He stood at a relatively back position in the service area, took a deep breath, then threw the ball and took off, hitting his signature jump serve float.
Unfortunately, as the most representative powerful school in Miyagi Prefecture, although this floating ball looked fierce, for the experienced Hayato Yamagata, this serve was not particularly dangerous.
"Bang!" This is the sound made by the volleyball hitting the inside of the arm.
Also acting at the same time was Shirabu Kenjiro, the setter of Shiratorizawa. After receiving a pass from Yamagata, Shirabu almost didn’t need to think about it and threw the ball to the Shiratorizawa men’s volleyball team who was only in his second year. The score symbol of the club is Ushijima Wakatoshi.
Known as the "weird boy" in junior high school, the left-handed Ushijima Wakali easily smashed and scored.
"Inarizaki vs Shiratorizawa, 0-1."
Kimura, who lost serve in the first round, gritted his teeth: "Damn it!"
Tajima patted him on the shoulder, signaling him not to be impatient.
The substitute members who were standing aside to watch the game looked more relaxed. Miyaji was still a little dizzy. Ginjima, Da'er and Sakai all felt that they had little hope of playing. Only Kitano Shinsuke and Tenwon Saku were watching seriously.
"It's amazing," Tianyuan Shuo also sighed. "This smash is very powerful even for American high schools."
He subconsciously touched his wrist, his eyes were bright and there was a look of yearning on his face.
'I really want to try to see if I can stop his ball. '
'Not only is he left-handed, but the range of rotation is quite large, and the angle of the smash is also very clever. In this way, if I were on the court, this block should...'
While Tenwon Sakuya was thinking about it, the score gap between Inarizaki and Shiratorizawa had widened by three points. It was obvious that with only the average defensive ability of the front row, almost no one in Inarizaki could. Stop the bombardment of Ushijima's cannon.
"I come!"
Kimura received Miya Yoo's pass, but he was quite impatient and did not try to pull away Shiratorizawa's defense. He was blocked straight up and down by Shiratorizawa's block.
Standing in front of the net, Tentongjue was keenly aware of Kimura's anxiety. The red-haired boy smiled and decided to add fuel to the fire: "Crackling, crackling, I seem to hear the sound of someone's heart breaking."
Tendou Kaku sang a weird ballad and stared at Inarizaki's ace provocatively: "Why are you heartbroken? Because the ace is no longer an ace, crackling, crackling~"
"You!" Kimura's face turned red and he clenched his fists subconsciously. He knew clearly that this was trash talk, but what this weirdo said was like a sharp knife, piercing Kimura's heart.
Tajima came over and wanted to pull Kimura away, but Kimura threw him behind him with a backhand. Tajima stood there awkwardly, his face looking ugly.
"What the hell?" Sakai frowned, "What happened to Kimura today?"
As the referee blew the whistle, the game continued. Shiratorizawa fully seized the three-point gap and gained momentum. Ushijima and Shione scored consecutively, and even Shirabu successfully stole points with a second pass attack.
Kurosu, who was sitting on the coaching bench, gradually became serious. Finally, after Shiratorizawa scored more than fifteen points, he raised his hand to signal the referee to make a substitution.
"Miyaji is replaced by Kimura, and Tenin is replaced by Tajima," Kurosu said expressionlessly to Kimura and Tajima, who made repeated mistakes. "You two, stay calm on the bench."
Kimura opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he flinched under the coach's eyes.
Miyaji pretended not to see Kimura's face and lazily ran onto the court to give Gong Yu a high-five, while Tenwon Saku was only thinking about Ushijima's smash, so he naturally ignored him.
Tenwon Saku also took Tajima's position and faced Tendo Kaku directly.
"Hello, senior, please give me your advice."
The blond boy smiled a little shyly. He already had a baby face, and he greeted people politely. He appeared to be well-behaved and sweet, which was in stark contrast to Tajima just now.
Tendou Kaku responded with a smile: "Well, well, you should be careful with Wakatoshi-kun's spike later. It won't be good if your finger is injured."
The blond boy couldn't tell whether he understood the implication of Tentong Kaku's words, but still replied in a low voice: "Thank you, senior, I will try my best."
Shirabu and Kakuname laughed at the same time, looked at each other subtly through the net, and instantly smoothed the corners of their mouths.
The game continued, and finally it was Inarizaki's turn to serve, and Oshiro Alan stood in the serving position.
Shiratorizawa lost a point on the first serve, and Yamayuki worked hard to cushion the ball on the second serve.
"White cloth!"
"Tsk," Shirabu took a few big steps and narrowly saved the ball, "Ushijima-senpai!"
Ushijima looked calm when he heard the call. Neither the half-assed setter nor the new secondary attacker on the opposite side had any impact on him.
Tenwon Saku also heard Shirabu's undisguised tactical instructions: No matter what lineup or blockers your opponent changes, as long as you have Ushijima and Shiratorizawa, you have to kneel down in front of absolute strength. !
Ushijima looked at the volleyball flying in the air, and the super ace with a reach of 345cm began to take off.
"Bang-bang!"
With this muffled sound, the entire stadium fell into a long-lost silence.
Even the players on Shiratorizawa's own team were in disbelief.
This person who looked a whole lot smaller than Ushijima Wakali actually blocked that weird boy's ball? ! !
"No way…"
"Where did this freak come from? His ball finger was not broken when he smashed Ushijima in the air?"
Tianyuan Shuo, who was immersed in the game, did not feel the sudden change in the atmosphere. He landed lightly on the ground, frowned and shook his hand. In fact, it was still very painful. Compared with watching from the sidelines, he could only really block the ball with his hands. Feel the terrifying power of Ushijima.
The referee raised his hand and said: "Toot, out of bounds, Shiratorizawa vs. Inarizaki, 16-11."
Tianyuan Shuo also sighed. Sure enough, he was still not capable enough. He had clearly predicted the path of the ball, but the strength of the opponent's ace was really terrifying, so he could only push the ball hard into the opponent's court. In this way, it was easy for him to smash the ball out of bounds and lose it in vain. point.
Tianyuan Shuo also encouraged himself in his heart. It doesn't matter. Although he is not strong, but if he works hard, he might be able to successfully smash next time?
Facing his teammates who looked over, Tianyuan Shuo also bowed sincerely and apologized: "I'm very sorry. Please give me two more balls to adapt to. I will adjust my condition as soon as possible!"
Inarizaki:…
Players from other schools quietly watching around:…
Shirabu's expression twisted: "What does he mean? Is he laughing at Ushijima-senpai?"
Tendo Jue, who was standing next to him, didn't answer. His eyes that were larger than normal were staring straight at the blond boy opposite.
"Ruoli-kun..."
"Yes." Ushijima responded calmly, responding to Tendou Satoru's unspoken intention.
"Interesting," Tentong Kaku smiled, "It's so interesting."
