The Date workers who had not yet started the game in the stands also came to watch the match between Karasuno and Jōzenji. As powerful enemies who had defeated them before, they were also curious about how much progress Karasuno had made now.
"The players at Jōzenji don't think too much. They just jump when trying to block. They often fall for the bait."
Date Ko's second-year coach Kenji Futakuchi crossed his arms and commented while watching the game on the court. The 37-point coach seemed a little confused about Jōzenji's way of playing.
"But why are they so difficult to deal with?"
Obara, the Datego teammate behind him, added what Futakuchi was going to say next, and another member of the group, Tsukuru, raised his hand to signal.
"I have a friend who is in the Jozenji basketball club. I heard that when the volleyball club is practicing, more than half of the time is spent in 2v2 matches."
"It's 2v2 all the time, it's so hard!"
After hearing this, the two generals also felt difficult to deal with. After hearing this, the monk Tou Yuan speculated.
"Because they are used to this mode, they will not have the idea of relying on others, and everyone is in a state of attack at any time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Jiaozenji players on the court collided with each other while saving the ball at the same time, and lost another point.
"So this will happen too."
Seeing Jiaozenji losing points, Obara added with a smile.
"Either one is very difficult."
Putting his hands behind his head, General Erguchi looked at the two teams below and said.
The score on the court has reached 17:12.
"I want to smash the ball too~"
Jōzenji's setter ran directly behind his teammates after padding the ball. This move confused Tsukishima in the front row.
"Isn't he a setter? Who will pass the ball for him to attack?"
Then I saw the person in the back row passing the ball to the second passer, who directly spiked the ball and scored.
Tanaka, who didn't react, had veins popping out on his forehead and looked at the other side celebrating with an unhappy expression.
"Huh? Is this okay?"
After Jiaozenji scored, Jiaozenji's supporters shouted loudly to cheer up. They even brought drums, so the momentum was naturally louder than Karasuno's. Xiaoyu and the others were not willing to admit defeat. They pulled Nika aside and the four The girls shouted cheers together.
"Yeah, even though it's a competition, I have to admit that I look very happy when I see the way Jozenji plays."
Teacher Takeda said with a wry smile, and Coach Wu Yang on the side also nodded in agreement.
"I have no objection to this."
"However, we will not lose despite the free and unrestrained attacking style."
After speaking, Mr. Takeda looked at the court. Hinata, who had been rotated to the front row, once again launched a super speed attack and scored another point.
"Nice super speed attack."
Hayato encouraged the two of them and was not jealous because he did not score the ball. Although Hayato's presence has dropped a lot since the serve was scored, this also shows that Karasuno is not a team that relies on one person to fight. .
Daichi, Tanaka, Tsukishima, Hinata, Hayato, and even Kageyama's own secondary attack. Karasuno now has many different attack methods. It is really difficult to rely on one person all the time.
"However, it's time for me to show off."
Hayato, who was thinking this way, loudly asked Kageyama for the ball after the next ball was picked up by Daichi.
"Tobio, pass it to me!"
"Hayato-senpai!"
After hearing the call for the ball, Kageyama did not hesitate to pass the ball to Hayato in the back row. The powerful attack from the back row once again tore apart Jōzenji's defense.
"Oh oh oh! Hayato-senpai attacks from the back!"
After scoring, Hinata ran over excitedly and high-fived Hayato, who also smiled and bumped into his teammates.
The cheerleaders in the stands also shouted Hayato's name. At this time, Hayato relaxed a lot and turned around to wave to Xiaoyu and the others in the stands.
Tsukishima, who was in charge of serving, once again served the ball to the opponent. Jōzenji seized this opportunity and spiked the ball to score. Hinata and Kageyama immediately counterattacked with their super-speed attack, and the two teams each scored another point.
"That setter has a serious face, but his attack style is very random."
Staring at Kageyama's face, Terushima, the commander-in-chief of Zenji Temple, said with a smile.
Kageyama, who was excited by Jōzenji's offensive rhythm, looked at the setter jumping up from the opposite side and wondered if this was a second attack. Kageyama, who would not let you succeed, jumped up to block the ball.
His hands were not put together properly, causing the ball to hit his face directly and bounce into Jiaozenji's court. The free man failed to save the ball, and Karasuno scored another point.
"Tobio, are you okay?"
Seeing the ball hit Kageyama's face, Hayato ran over worriedly. After so long, Hayato couldn't remember the memory of the game clearly, but this time it reminded him of Kageyama's game against Jōzenji. It was true that he was hit in the face and caused his nose to bleed, but that was the original plot, and this kind of thing shouldn't happen after he joined.
Thinking about it carefully, whether Hinata Kageyama failed before, or the opponent was the same as before, and now Kageyama is injured, could this be a correction of the world line? His addition will not change the plot?
With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Hayato walked to Kageyama's side, and Kageyama's nose was bleeding as expected.
An emergency timeout was called, and Kageyama was called off the court.
"Are your eyes injured?"
Kiyoko asked while taking out a tissue and handing it to Kageyama.
"No, I was only hit on the nose."
Kageyama answered as he took a tissue and wiped his nosebleed. Coach Uyang and Takeda-sensei on the side also looked at him helplessly.
"Did Kageyama-kun get aroused by the opponent's opponent, causing him to lean forward when he jumped?"
"It's also a chance to calm down. You won't be able to play until the nosebleed stops anyway. Go to the infirmary."
Hearing Coach Uyang's words, Kageyama couldn't accept it, and Yamaguchi next to him waved to him.
"Let's go, stop making trouble."
"Tobio, don't worry, we are still here."
Hayato gestured with his thumbs to everyone in Karasuno and comforted him. After hearing Hayato's words, Kageyama became a lot more honest. He covered his nose and bowed to his seniors.
"Then please leave it to the seniors."
"Hey, Kageyama, don't forget you still have me."
Hinata also followed suit and told Kageyama not to worry too much.
After the setter Sugawara was replaced, the game continued. During the staycation and daily training, Sugawara, who cooperated more with Hayato, decisively passed the ball to Hayato after getting the ball. Hayato also spiked the ball directly, opening the score again.
When the liberos Nishitani and Hinata took turns on the field, Kageyama also happened to be back. Nika, who had left the stands to accompany Kageyama, also returned to the stands. Xiaoyu and the others came up to ask if Kageyama was okay. After getting the answer that Kageyama was okay, everyone He also breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the way Kageyama was injured and had a lot of blood was very worrying.
"Oh~ Kageyama, you're back."
"Didn't I say there was still you?"
Looking at Hinata who was also in the substitute area, Kageyama complained calmly.
"Well, I'm rotating with Nishitani-senpai, is there anything I can do?"
While they were chatting, Sugawara passed the ball to Tanaka, and it was picked up by Jōzenji. It was Terushima in the front row who quickly organized the attack. At this time, Hayato also rotated to the front row, and Terushima jumped up. At this time, Hayato, who had already seen who the ball was passed to, also took off.
The two looked at each other through the net.
"Tch, the response is very quick."
"bring it on."
Although they didn't speak, both of them saw similar meanings from the opposite eyes. Terushima did not smash the ball in a straight line but chose to smash the ball diagonally. He turned his wrist. Hayato noticed it and directly changed the position of his hands to stop it. hit his smash.
"Completely blocked!"
The beautiful block made Hinata and Kageyama in the substitute area shout excitedly at the same time.
After landing, Hayato also looked at Terushima opposite with a provocative look.
"As you wish, let's have a good time."
After saying this, Hayato turned around and left. Because Karasuno had won the right to serve, their formations were about to rotate, and after the rotation, Hayato was serving. Looking at Hayato who walked to the back row, Terushima was not disturbed by these words. He was angry, but wiped the sweat from his face with the back of his hand.
"Interesting. Black Feather Hayato, you are more interesting than I thought."
