As long as Qingcheng's jump serve wasn't coming from Oikawa, there was still hope of catching it. He successfully saved the last ball, but the ball had to fly back to Qingcheng's half. Huang Jingguan stood in front of the net and jumped up hard, relying on He touched the volleyball with his tall arms and long arms.
"Can't give them the ball!"
"Duck it over!"
The three Dateko seniors stood up excitedly. This ball must not be given to Aoshiro. The Dateko players on the court also knew it well. Huang Huanggawa passed the ball back a little, and Aone jumped up and dunked directly. Down!
But the ball was firmly caught by Qingcheng players.
The students in the cheering group tapped the microphones in their hands.
"Get this point!"
"Come on Qingcheng!"
The Datego support group on the other side did not give in at all, both cheering loudly for their teams.
The ball flew high into the sky, and Oikawa quickly got into position.
Everyone in Karasuno became nervous at this moment.
Calling Iwaizumi's name, Oikawa passed the ball to him. Iwaizumi, who started running again after the ball was passed, was spotted by Datego's setter Kanegawa. He decisively ran to Aone and captain Futakuchi, preparing to use the iron wall to block the ball again.
But the gap in experience was there, and Iwaizumi, who jumped up, discovered his weakness.
"The defense is not tight enough, you first-year brat!"
Iwaizumi's smash shot went straight through the middle of Kanegawa's unclosed arms and hit the court. The iron wall was broken, and this meant that Qingcheng scored 25 points and won the second game.
2:0, Qingcheng also won the game against Dateko cleanly.
When the buzzer sounded to end the game, Iwaizumi clenched his fists, and the third-year player came over and ruffled his hair.
"Well done, Iwaizumi."
"You guys stole the limelight."
Celebrating the victory, Oikawa looked at his teammates and sighed helplessly.
"In the end, you chose to break through head-on. I am not as good as you today, Iwaizumi."
After the two teams arranged their formation, they stood on the sideline and bowed to each other at the same time. Thank you for your advice. The audience in the stadium also gave them timely applause. The game was exciting, but there can only be one winner.
Jin Huangchuan clenched his hands unwillingly and left the venue with the others.
"It actually hit me from the middle of both arms. It was so powerful."
Hinata was shocked by Iwaizumi's last shot, and they weren't the only ones who seemed to be improving.
"You dare to choose to break through the iron wall in the face of an iron wall. How confident you are."
Asahi sighed remembering his previous experience of being blocked, and Sugawara next to him nodded in agreement.
"Yes, this is Qingcheng's trump card, Iwaizumi Kazuo."
"The opponent for the next game has been determined. Everyone, prepare to leave."
Dadi greeted all the players to leave the competition venue and prepare to move to another preparation room, where they could rest and warm up for the game with Qingcheng.
The Date workers who had just left the field were blocked by third-year seniors.
"Hu Jinchuan, you are still too young, and there is a new captain, so you are in a hurry. Now you know how difficult it is for Maoting, right?"
The bad-looking Kamasaki Yasushi watched the team members teasing them, and Futakuchi was very unconvinced.
"I've known that for a long time."
"Really, then we can only keep growing."
Upon hearing these last serious words, Aone and Futakuchi were stunned at the same time.
"Come on, work harder than before, you will definitely become the strongest iron wall in history."
The former captain, Motei, with curly black hair, encouraged everyone.
"Then let's go."
Futakuchi's words puzzled Maoting, and then he listened to him continue.
"Senior Maoting, since you are here, it means you are very free. Come back with us to practice."
"There's really nothing we can do about you."
Kamamatsu Yasushi took off his tie, and Sasaya Takehito complained that he should not take it off here.
All members of IDA are ready to go back to school to continue training, and they will work harder to grow.
At this time, Hinata and the others just happened to come out of the passage on the other side of the stands. The third-year students went straight to the preparation room with Coach Wu Yang, Mr. Takeda, and the manager. It happened that all the first-year students were walking this way.
Huang Huanggawa was still promising his seniors that no matter how strong or tall they faced in the future, they would never lose and would definitely stop them to live up to the name of the Iron Wall. Aone glanced at Hinata who was walking over.
"Opponents that are difficult to guard against are not necessarily tall."
Passing by Hinata, neither of the two opponents spoke. They were just thinking about the same thing. Next time, they will definitely stop/break through you. In this way, Date Ko also ended this year's competition and regretfully retired, but Hinata and the others will continue to stay here and fight.
In the preparation room, everyone except Hayato had a trace of nervousness on their faces, because they were facing Qingcheng, who had defeated them in IH. Even if they won easily against Wakunan, in the match against Qingcheng During this period of time before, I still couldn’t help but think about it.
But he wasn't too nervous. At least Hayato didn't see anyone asking for stomach medicine from Kitsuko or Niuka.
This should be considered the most gratifying thing so far. Although there is a trace of nervousness on the faces of the slender and sensitive people, they are still within the tolerance range, mainly Asahi and Yamaguchi.
Sitting on the ground, he didn't speak, quietly adjusting his condition.
"Okay, don't sit still all the time. Warm up when it's time to warm up. Relax. We are completely different now. We are going to travel all over the country. How can we stop here?"
Daichi clapped his hands to encourage everyone, and Hayato also stood up at the right time.
"Senior Dadi is right. Everyone, feel free to go and play. Behind you are not only Senior Dadi, but also me. We have played so many training matches with strong schools in Tokyo. Now we can be said to be The evolved new Karasuno will give Qingcheng a surprise!"
First he pointed at himself with a thumbs up, Hayato showed his presence, and then mentioned the previous training match. You must know that Karasuno was ranked second among several teams at that time, let alone now.
Hayato's words had an effect, and the tension on everyone's faces faded away and turned into fighting spirit.
"Yes, we are different from before!"
Tanaka clenched his fists, and Nishitani jumped up holding Tanaka's shoulders.
"Don't forget me!"
"I will definitely never forget it, Karasuno's patron saint."
After blinking at Nishitani, Hayato called out his nickname. Nishitani scratched his head in embarrassment when Hayato said this.
"Don't, don't say that, the patron saint is so embarrassing."
"Patron Saint, that sounds so handsome! Does Nishitani-kun have this nickname!?"
Xiaoyu, who was following, heard the name and immediately confirmed it again with his eyes shining.
"Oh, yes, and it was taken by Senior Dadi and the others."
Nishitani over there was already confused by the girl's blunt nickname that he was too handsome. He couldn't reply for the time being, so Hayato could only answer.
"Then Hayato, do you have a nickname or something?"
Uxi also came over and asked curiously, Hayato smiled and shook his head.
"Hey~ I think you can also have a nickname, Hayato. Look, didn't you just say that Datego was an iron wall? We also have cool nicknames like Karasuno's patron saint. Hayato, you should have one too. one."
As soon as Hinata heard about the nickname, she also joined in.
"I think so too! And I also want a cool nickname."
"Don't you have the nickname "The Strongest Bait"? Besides, your volleyball skills are still terrible, what else do you want to be nicknamed, idiot."
Complaining mercilessly, Kageyama grabbed Hinata's collar and told him to be more honest.
Now the preparation room was filled with a happy atmosphere, everyone was discussing relaxedly, and the tension just now was no longer visible.
Daichi and Hayato looked at each other and laughed happily. No matter what the reason was, as long as they don't do what they did just now.
In the end, it was the girls who pushed out the blue-haired girl Arima Hikaru, who was the best at studying classical literature.
The girl who never expressed her feelings tilted her head and thought for a long time.
"How about the evil bird...?"
Based on his performance after watching Hayato play, he truthfully expressed his impression of him. After saying this word, Hizuki looked at Hayato, wanting to see how he felt about the name.
"The fierce bird, indeed Hayato-senpai is very fierce when attacking."
"It suits him quite well."
"I am such a kind person, how can I be so cruel?"
While refuting everyone with a smile, Hayato didn't show any reluctance on his face. It didn't matter what he called him.
"Of course when you were playing ball, your smacking of the tongue when you were stopped from smashing the ball was scarier than Xu. Don't you realize it?"
"real or fake?"
Hearing this, Renhua had the right to speak. She nodded vigorously and Jiezi laughed when she saw her reaction.
"What's wrong? It sounds very powerful."
As soon as Jiezi spoke, everyone became more enthusiastic. Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Hayato had no choice but to accept the nickname.
So, in the small preparation room of the Sendai City Gymnasium, the nickname of Black Feather Hayato, who later became a legend in the volleyball world, was officially confirmed.
