The continuous scoring not only brought Karasuno's momentum to its peak, but also allowed Yamaguchi to make visible progress. After practicing for so long, he was able to freely control his body. In addition, he was able to score continuously against the top eight teams. , which had a huge impact on his mentality.
The confident Yamaguchi will become stronger and stronger, but on the other hand, Wakunan, who is on the opposite side, will not be able to catch the jump ball, and the momentum of all members will weaken, and even the cheers from the stands will be muted. A lot.
"Uyang-kun, starting from today, Yamaguchi-san can finally be called the decisive server."
Teacher Takeda smiled happily. For him, it was a very happy thing for his players to improve. Coach Uyang also smiled and nodded.
"Yes, these four people in the next grade can finally stand together and fight side by side."
The support team of the Karasuno camp was even more excited, especially Yamaguchi's master Shimada. He wiped the corners of his eyes and saw his apprentice performing in the official competition. The happiest person besides himself was him as the master. Thinking of that Yamaguchi, who has been training hard, can now shine on the court.
Is there anything more touching than this?
Saeko waved her arms to cheer Yamaguchi, and Nika on the side shouted Yamaguchi's name loudly. The cheerleading trio also raised their bouquets to support Yamaguchi.
However, Yamaguchi, who was so focused, didn't hear all this. After celebrating in a circle with the others, he returned to the serving position with the volleyball and continued to adjust his mentality.
This was only the second goal, and his goal was to end the game directly.
"Yamaguchi, serve the ball well!"
The voice of the Lord came over, Yamaguchi smiled slightly and continued to attack.
"How can I let you succeed again and again!"
Shouting and Kunan's general Nakajima rushed forward. No matter where the ball would fly, he would catch it first. The ball hit his arm and flew out of the court. The free man hurriedly chased after him. After trying his best to catch the ball, he fell onto the billboard. Regardless of the pain on his body, he got up and wanted to return to the field.
The key ball received by the libero, all members of Hekunan pressed forward, not wanting to give up this only opportunity, but now standing in the front row of Karasuno were Hayato and Asahi, with two iron walls, Hayato was staring at the volleyball and noticed He quickly ran to Xu's side with Jiunan's attack intention.
"Senior Xu, one, two, jump!"
After standing firm, Hayato shouted slogans, and the two jumped up together, like an iron wall, blocking the front of Wakunan's main attacker, Pineapple Head Kawatari, but at this time, it was too late for Kawatari to change the direction of attack.
The volleyball that was dunked hard hit Asahi's palm and bounced directly into Kazunan's court. He blocked the ball and scored. Karasuno retained the right to serve, but Kazunan had one foot on the edge of the cliff. 23:15.
"Hey, no, is it possible that Karasuno wants to end the game directly?"
Iwaizumi, who was sitting on a chair, looked at the score in disbelief, and Oikawa next to him also showed a disgusted smile.
"It's really a terrible team. The guy on the 12th was still a newbie when he played against us. I didn't expect that he would have evolved to this point when he played again today."
The discussion outside the court also spread to Hekunan, and the family members who came to cheer for Nakajima also became anxious. Nakajima's father comforted the others and told them not to worry, but his eyelids kept twitching.
Even outside the court, they can't control their mentality. You can imagine how much pressure He Jiunan, who just failed to attack on the court, must bear. At this moment, even the most stable Nakajima can't encourage everyone. .
After standing in silence, Karasuno teed off again. Yamaguchi originally thought about giving a chance shot, but Daichi seemed to read his mind.
"Relax, Yamaguchi, this is your chance to play. As long as you can hit the floating ball, go for it. Even if you get caught, Asahi and Hayato will help you. The same goes for us, right, how about you guys? indivual."
Said Daichi and greeted the others, Nishitani shouted loudly that I will try my best to catch the ball from the other side, Yamaguchi, just feel free to play. Asahi also told him to relax very gently, but Kageyama stupidly just said "Come on Yamaguchi," and Hayato even gave Yamaguchi a thumbs up.
Faced with everyone's encouragement, Yamaguchi also put his previous thoughts behind him. Daichi-senpai was right. This was his chance to play. The only thing he had practiced was the floating ball. Apart from this, his other abilities were far from satisfactory. , since the seniors will support him, then there is nothing to be afraid of. Keep attacking is your only option.
Yamaguchi, who found his hand, once again chose to jump to the floating ball.
The volleyball flew over the net, but this time it fell directly as soon as it passed the net. He Jiunan, who was standing in the front row, used his arm to catch the ball, but the ball hit his arm and bounced out. He Jiunan, who was too late to rescue, lost the point again.
24 points, Karasuno's match point.
The moment the ball hit the ground, enthusiastic cheers erupted in the stadium.
The decisive server lived up to his reputation. After coming on the court, he scored 4 points in a row. Yamaguchi received the warmest applause and cheers. Everyone felt that even if Yamaguchi did not get the last point, his current performance was enough to shock everyone. .
"Hey, hey, I'm not really going to win the game directly with a floating ball, right?"
"Look at Hejiunan's team members. Their faces are filled with despair."
"When we were behind by a big margin, the opponent's decisive server scored 4 points in a row. If it were me, I would be in despair."
"Actually, before the server came on the court, he and Jiunan had already made some moves out of shape."
"It goes without saying that they were already 5 points behind before No. 12 came on the court. 5 points, that's a huge deficit. How could it not have an impact on the mentality?"
"But don't you think Karasuno fought better today?"
The audience started a heated discussion. Everyone felt that He Kunan was about to lose. Even their own coach and Nakajima's family members felt so. The youngster already looked like he was about to cry.
Just when everyone thought Karasuno was going to win the game, Nakajima once again showed off his power. He received Yamaguchi's serve, and Wagonan attacked again. Pineapple Head Kawawatari threw off the blocker and took off to spike the ball on the other side. Although Daichi He caught it, but the ball hit his hand and bounced out.
He Jiunan recovered one point.
"OK!!!"
Even louder than the audience, everyone shouted loudly after all members of Wakunan scored this point.
It's like the player who defeated the final boss.
"Damn it."
Yamaguchi looked at the opponent unwillingly. When the ball was hit back, he had no time to react. He could only look at Daichi beside him to save the ball. If he was stronger and caught the ball, maybe Karasuno You can counterattack again and win directly.
"Sorry, I didn't catch the ball."
"No, it was our front row blockers who were deceived."
Before Yamaguchi could apologize, others came over and took the initiative to take the ball to themselves, and then everyone patted Yamaguchi on the shoulder.
"You've done a great job, Yamaguchi."
"Yeah, I got the match point directly, which is great."
"I'll keep asking you for help next time."
Faced with everyone's comfort, Yamaguchi felt like crying. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and nodded seriously without saying anything.
But now, it was time for him to leave the field and exchange number plates with Tsukishima. Tsukishima patted his shoulder.
"Your performance today was extremely handsome. Leave the rest to me."
