He was rotated from the serving position to the middle. Tsukishima in the front row was responsible for serving. Hayato patted Tsukishima on the shoulder.
"Relax."
"Yes, but I think Hayato-senpai should relax more. You seem a little nervous."
It should be said that he was worthy of Tsukishima. His current state could be seen at once, and Hayato laughed.
"You see? Yeah, you will be nervous when facing a strong enemy like Qingcheng."
"If you're still in the mood to joke, then there's no need to worry."
"You kid."
Knowing that Tsukishima was relieving his tension in this way, Hayato touched Tsukishima's shoulder with his fist.
"Hizuki, your favorite Tsukishima-kun is about to serve."
Hikaru had mentioned it before when watching the game, so this time it was Tsukishima's turn to serve and Uki specifically brought it up.
"I saw it."
Hizuki nodded reservedly, returning to his normal expression, but in his heart he was also looking forward to what kind of performance his favorite player would have. In the match against Qingcheng, Tsukishima made no mistakes in the last game, but conversely speaking, there were no mistakes either. What's the bright spot? He's obviously not bad at height and skills.
An unpretentious ball was easily picked up by Qingcheng. Hizuki in the stands also knew that Tsukishima was indeed average in terms of serving, and he had to be in the front row to calmly block the ball.
Qingcheng, who started a fast break, passed the ball to Kyotani this time, but Kyotani just took off and smashed the ball in an ordinary way, hitting the front row blocker. The ball spun and flew to the backcourt. Tsukishima caught the ball with his arms together. One ball.
"give it to me!"
Hinata, who was moved to the front row, started running after landing, and Kageyama also passed the ball to him.
The overspeed attack was launched again, but this time, Aoki's third-year deputy attacker, the black-haired hedgehog Kazushige, who was responsible for guarding Hinata, ran over and caught the ball. Aoqing shouted for a chance ball and attacked again.
This time, the attacking player became Kindaichi. The front row, whose attention was attracted by Kyotani, failed to block the ball in time this time. The ball went directly over the net, but Hayato took action in time.
"Don't underestimate people!"
He firmly caught Kindaichi's smash, but Hayato also lost the right to attack. Hinata ran again, and Tanaka in the front row also took off. Just as Aoki stared at the two people, Tsukishima jumped from the back row. Taking off, Kageyama made a precise pass from behind.
The back row attacked and Karasuno scored consecutively.
"It's Tsukishima-kun's backline attack!"
"When did the two of them practice?"
"What a ball!"
This unexpected back-row attack with Tsukishima Kageyama surprised everyone. No one expected that the two people, who had never been together in training, would come up with such an attack at this time.
"Awesome, you two, when did you practice secretly?"
Hayato looked at the two first-year students in surprise, and Hinata was even more frightened.
"You, Kageyama, Tsukishima, you two don't have a fever, do you?"
"What are you talking about, Hinata idiot!"
"As a secondary attacker, it's normal to cooperate with the setter."
Kageyama angrily lectured Hinata with his iron claws, while Tsukishima looked like why are you making such a fuss.
In fact, after the first round of preliminaries, Tsukishima approached Kageyama privately and proposed that he wanted to practice back-row offense. Because of Hayato's intervention, Tsukishima became somewhat willing to communicate with others, so when he heard this, Kageyama Subconsciously, I thought that Tsukishima had taken the wrong medicine.
In short, Kageyama finally agreed to Tsukishima's request. The two of them would find a place to practice privately in their free time. This secret weapon has been hidden to this day. During the game with Aoki, he quietly followed Kageyama before Tsukishima served. After sending the signal, Kageyama nodded to show that he knew, and then he seized the opportunity and used the back row attack-Tsukishima Kageyama version.
"It's really getting more and more troublesome. Even Mr. Glasses is slowly integrating into the team."
Oikawa looked at Karasuno celebrating across the net and sighed. The threat level of the more evolved Karasuno was constantly increasing.
It wasn’t just the people on the field who were shocked. Coach Uyang was still a little stunned. Teacher Takeda on the side even pushed his glasses that had just fallen down due to shock with his hand. Everyone who is familiar with Tsukishima’s character will understand. He and Kageyama must have practiced this kind of attack together in private. It wouldn't matter if it was anyone else. The key is Tsukishima, the one who passed Long Live Tsukishima.
Even if he has changed recently and worked harder, it is only during club activities and he has to train with Kageyama in private. You can imagine how determined Tsukishima is.
In this way, today's new tactics can put more pressure on Qingcheng. If we carefully study Karasuno's current shortcomings, in addition to the common technical problems of receiving the ball, there is also Hinata's blocking when he rotates to the front row. The highest point is It takes time. Hinata's height is destined to take him longer to block than others. This also makes it difficult to organize a multi-person block again if he is deceived by a feint.
Then there is the lack of Tsukishima's offense. Apart from ordinary spikes, Tsukishima's offensive method is too monotonous. Today's back-row attack adds more offensive options. The opponent cannot ignore Tsukishima in the back row when defending.
The back row's offense was also Karasuno's shortcoming before Hayato arrived. When Daichi was in the back row, it was difficult to see him attacking from the back row. Karasuno, who has various attack methods, has always relied on Tanaka, Asahi, and Hinata in the front row. It has always been supportive, except when multiple people are attacking at the same time. Under normal circumstances, Dadi in the back row is only responsible for catching the ball.
"Everyone has made progress today. This is the first time I've seen Tsukishima-kun's back-row attack."
Renhua happily explained to Xiaoyu next to her. When she said this, everyone remembered that it was indeed the case. Under the brilliance of Hinata, Hayato, Asahi, Tanaka and others, Tsukishima's dazzling features were all in the front row. At that time, today's back-row offense really gave everyone a glimpse.
As the game continued, Tsukishima continued to serve steadily, and then prepared to defend and counterattack with everyone.
There were three attackers in the front row. After Qingcheng got the chance, he launched a fierce attack without hesitation. It was Iwaizumi in the left half, Kindaichi in the middle, or maybe the substitute 'Rabid Dog'.
Kageyama quickly thought about who he would pass the ball to if it were him.
It was Kindaichi. Iwaizumi in the left half and Kyotani in the right half were all decoys. The real attacker was Kindaichi, whom everyone ignored. Karasuno jumped to intercept Iwaizumi and completely gave up the spike route. Kindaichi didn't do anything. A hesitant spike.
"give it to me!"
The most reliable captain, Daichi, caught the ball, and Hinata started running again after landing.
"You're running faster than before, little one."
Because Oikawa was in the back row, he could still see Hinata's running, so Oikawa was ready to catch the ball the moment it passed to Hinata's hands. However, after catching the ball, Oikawa could not pass the ball again.
But as I said before, Qingcheng's solid skills will not make mistakes because of Oikawa's inability to pass the ball. Hanamaki, the other main attacker, called the name of the ace Iwaizumi and passed the ball to him.
Iwaizumi quickly attacked after receiving the ball, but Karasuno had no time to save it.
"Damn it, it deserves to be Qingcheng, it has a solid foundation."
Coach Wu Yang, who was sitting on the bench, crossed his hands in front of his face and said helplessly.
After winning this point, Qingcheng's 'Mad Dog' Kyotani came to the serving position. His powerful smash and super small diagonal smash proved that his physical fitness was extraordinary.
As a member of Qingcheng, with such physical fitness, he will naturally choose a jump serve that is more suitable for him when it comes to serving.
Just as Coach Uyang thought, after the whistle sounded, Kyoutani used a powerful jump serve.
The volleyball hit Karasuno like a cannonball. At this time, Hinata was in the front row and Nishitani was not on the court. Daichi stepped forward and planned to catch the ball. If Hayato caught the ball, he would not be able to participate in the attack.
But Kyotani's serve was not so easy to catch. The volleyball hit Daichi's hand and bounced directly, while Qingcheng scored consecutively.
