[Volleyball] Black and White

The match between Karasuno and Yinju coincided with the match of Hyodi, so except for Koizumi who arranged for someone to record the whole process, no other team members watched the match from the stands.The current Yinju is indeed not as good as Karasuno, so it is expected that the game will end 2:0. Sakakihara also specially watched Karasuno's later games, and marked the possible opponents on the schedule.

Everyone saw Sakakihara's silent face.

"What's wrong?" Black Tail Tetsuro came out of the bathroom, his hair was still dripping, and he leaned over to look at the paper in Sakakibara's hand, "What is this?"

Sakakibara said quietly, "Karino's schedule."

Heiwei Tielang glanced at him in surprise, feeling that this person was really idle: "Why are you doing Wuye's schedule when you have nothing to do? Does Wuye have anything to do with you?"

Heiwei Tielang's hair was a little disheveled just after taking a shower, revealing his forehead that was usually blocked by bangs, looking much gentler than usual.Mr. Sakakihara didn't care about Tetsuro Kuroo's words, and casually clicked on the team drawn on the paper: "Tetsu, take a look before speaking."

Only then did Tetsuro Kurobi take a closer look, and he didn't find any problems when he took a quick look just now. Now he knows why Sakakihara has such an expression: "Isn't it? Such a lucky fate?"

Sakakibara nodded with a heavy expression.

Kuroo Tetsuro imitated Sakakihara's expression and looked at the others sadly.

Others: "..." Does this expression make you feel silly?

"I think Asi may have exhausted his Ou Qi." Black Tail Tetsuro showed the battle table drawn by Sakakihara to others, "Look at Karasuno! This is called Ou, okay! The opponents in the later period are completely It's the kind of fight all the way without pressure!"

Lone Claw Grinding glanced up from the phone, and then calmly glanced at Heowei Tetsuro: "What is Heizi so excited about? If Xiangyang hadn't defeated Inarizaki, there wouldn't be the following."

"..." Heiwei Tielang suddenly fell into deep thought.

Sakakihara Division and Lone Claw looked at each other, and saw a smile in each other's eyes at the same time.

——Heiwei can take away his thinking casually, so he is too easy to deceive.

It's a joke, but what I have to admit is that if Karasuno can play at the same level as when he played against Inarizaki in the future, then maybe the final six can have their place.The top six in the country are nothing to Bingdi, but they are very important to Karasuno who is starting again.Not to mention that Hinata Shoyo and Kageyama Tobio are still only freshmen in high school, and they still have two years to lead Karasuno to continue climbing.

However, it doesn't have much to do with Sakakihara and the others later on. What they focus on is the current competition.The Bingdi's three consecutive spring high school championships do not allow for accidents. Whether or not Wu Ye will become the dark horse of this year has nothing to do with them. The level really cannot be at the same level.

"Tomorrow, I will be with my old rival again, what do you think, Asi?" Arisu Shimizu, who closed the door of the agency office after cleaning up, asked Sakakihara.

The latter was leaning on the guardrail with his mobile phone and didn't know who he was texting with. It was already dark, and Tsukasa Sakakibara stretched his head to look at the sky. It seemed that there was not much chance of rain tomorrow.Turning his head to see Yousheng Shimizu put the key into his schoolbag, he straightened up and stretched: "I don't have any ideas, just type as usual."

"Well... Mo Mo asked me in private today." Shimizu Yusheng said as he went downstairs to Sakakibara, "It was the first-year student who was fancy before. Mo Mo asked me if I could let him play a game."

Sakakihara took out a lollipop from his pocket that he didn't know when he put it in, tore off the package and stuffed it into the mouth, and said vaguely: "Who? Grinding told you?"

"Yes, I'm also very surprised. It seems that Grinding really wants to work hard for the Ice Empress, and now I have to start training my juniors."

"Huh." Sakakihara Division uttered a syllable, and said before Shimizu Yusheng did not ask, "It's a good idea."

Qing Shui Yousheng: "..."

"You can just say that you don't worry about it, and it's fine. If you have the ability, you can say that he thinks beautifully in front of the grinding face!" Shimizu Yusheng glanced at Sakakihara's side face contemptuously. Looking at the bulging cheeks on his side, he should have put the lollipop here.

Sakakihara stretched out his hand to take down the lollipop: "I dare not say the same thing in front of him, it's just to take care of his self-esteem."

"...Don't you feel your face hurt when you say this?" Qing Shui Yousheng choked and asked.

Sakakihara looked at him sideways: "No, not only won't it, but also flattered."

Qing Shui Yousheng: "..." Forget it, he is really bored to ask him such a question, this person will refresh his level of shamelessness every time.

"Don't make trouble, I won't agree. If it's the early game, we will play. Even if we lose two games in the best-of-five game, we can get back. Every game in the best-of-three game is very important." Sakakibara said while biting the hard candy, the crunching sound made Shimizu feel a toothache.

"Did you learn this problem from Senior Yiqing?" Shimizu Yusheng watched Sakakihara throw the stick of the lollipop into the trash can, and subconsciously covered his cheeks.

Sakakihara thought for a while: "I don't know, probably, it's not important."

"The point is, there won't be any rounds in the future games for the juniors to practice." Sakakihara put some of the schoolbags that had slipped off and put them back on his back. "Go back tonight and talk to the grinder to wake him up. I won't mention it sooner." This opinion, where does the vacancy come from at this critical time for him to train his juniors."

Yuki Shimizu and Tsukasa Sakakihara were the last two to leave, so Yukio Shimizu followed Tsukasa Sakakihara into the Sakaki family's car. This has become a customary thing for the Hyotei Volleyball Club, and those who are with Tsukasa Sakakihara in the end will definitely be killed. Sakakibara directly sent home.

The two of them discussed in the car what needs to be paid attention to in the game tomorrow morning, and after seeing the familiar house, Ariso Shimizu confirmed with Sakakihara: "Ashi, are you sure you will use the grinding equipment for the May Day match tomorrow?" ?"

Tsukasa Sakakihara was reaching for the milk in the car refrigerator. After a pause, he opened the refrigerator door: "Yeah, I didn't say it at the beginning. Do you have any questions?"

"To be honest, I think it's a bit um...how should I put it..." Qing Shui was somewhat hesitant.

Sakakihara pushed open the car door to signal Shimizu Yuu to get out of the car: "Good night if you don't say anything."

Why is this person like this? !

Shimizu Yusheng: "...I think, after grinding for so long and haven't played May Day, will there be some problems in coordination?"

"Hesitating," Sakakihara complained, "What you want to say is that the opponent may have already studied the grinding pass thoroughly, so it is very likely that the pass will be seen through on May Day, right?"

Bingdi's opponent in the next game is Sitianbaosi. After losing to Bingdi at the beginning, he has added a lot of fresh blood. It can be said that his strength has increased a lot compared to last year. They have already shown their understanding of the Lone Claw Grinding, because in their opinion, Sakakihara's pass has no flaws, and they can only rely on their intuition and control of the situation on the court to predict Sakakihara's toss.

But for Lone Claw Grinding, a setter who is still in the growth stage, Sitianbaoji put a lot of effort into observing and collecting information. Sakakihara Division, Bingdi and others, especially Lone Claw Grinding himself, did not stop him, letting Sitianbao go. Temple went to study Lone Claw Grinding.That's why Shimizu is a little worried that tomorrow's game will be more difficult to play. No matter how difficult the second and fourth equipment is, Sakakihara will pass the ball when the solitary claw is too late or the pass is seen through. This time, from Sakakihara's words It has already been heard that Sakakihara will play the main attacker directly, and will not do the second pass.

"Okay, you are the minister and you have the final say." Shimizu Yusheng got out of the car with his schoolbag, and waved at Sakakihara before closing the car door, "Thank you, Asi."

Sakakibara nodded, "You're welcome."

This year's Spring High School started from the semi-finals with a best-of-five rounds system, so Sakakihara Division talked about the importance of this competition from the very beginning. Shitenbaoji is not so easy to deal with, so we must concentrate from the beginning Minimize the opponent's chances of winning, preferably 0, although Sakakihara knows that this is impossible, anyway, it doesn't cost money to talk about it.

How to play, what equipment to play, and how to stand. Two days ago, Sakakihara had already told the players once.In matters of the game, Sakakihara has always been dictatorial, there is no discussion, and the players of Ice Empress have become accustomed to Sakakihara's style, not only because of Sakakihara's prestige, but more importantly, Mr. Sakakibara did not miss every pre-war deployment.

"Is there any problem?" Sakakihara looked at his teammates who were sitting or standing and got up and asked.

After getting an affirmative answer, Sakakibara pushed open the door of the lounge, and high-fived Koizumi Kei who was waiting outside the door as usual.

"come on."

Walking from a somewhat dark passage to a bright playing field would be uncomfortable, Sakakibara subconsciously squinted his eyes, nodded to the minister of Shitenbaoji, and then walked to the half of the ice emperor.

The game has not started yet, and Sakakihara and his teammates gathered together to emphasize the people and things that need to be paid attention to. Others listened to Sakakihara's words over and over again without being impatient. Everyone knew that Sakakihara did this for The victory of this game, so listen carefully every time.

The referee signaled that the two sides turned their backs to the vice referee, and everyone turned around in unison so that the vice referee could compare the standing chart conveniently.When the referee said it was okay, Sakakihara took the ball from the linesman.

The ice emperor started the first game.

Standing two or three steps away from the baseline, Sakakibara stretched out his hand to pat the ball to adjust the feel. It may be that the ball was too inflated, which made Sakakihara a little awkward. He immediately threw the ball back into the hands of the line referee and asked the opponent to change another ball for him. he.The ball in his hand gave him a very different feeling from just now, because the game whistle had not yet blown, so the stands were still cheering one after another.

"Beep——" The referee standing on the table raised his right hand and folded it over his chest to signal for Sakakihara to serve.

The stadium immediately fell silent, and Sakakihara glanced at Shitenbaoji's position through the crowd, and aimed at No. [-], who was relatively unstable.

In just a few seconds after the ball was released, Sakakihara went from stepping to jumping in one go. His short hair did not cover his face, and his whole body seemed to be glowing.The arm was raised quickly, and the moment it touched the ball, it exerted force, and the blue and yellow game ball flew straight towards No. [-] of Sitianbaosi.

The other party subconsciously hid for a while as if he didn't react, and it was too late to reach out again.

Unsurprisingly, Sakakihara scored a serve and stood behind the baseline again.Slightly leaning over to grab the ball rolled by the lineman, Sakakihara was not affected by the sound of cheering and applauding at all, as if he had blocked other sounds on his own, and focused on adjusting the touch.

It has been two years since what happened in the U19 training camp in the first grade. Sakakihara has also been lifted|banned from training because of his good performance and recovery. is increasing.The technical level, which has not been improved for a long time, has been improved. At least now, Sakakihara's serve will no longer shake his arms after consecutive jumps.

Relying on Sakakibara's serve, Hyodi directly opened the score by six points, and waited for Shitenbaoji's serve with a score of 1:6.

In fact, neither the right to serve nor the right to receive the serve is very important to the ice emperor. When the right to serve is in the hands of the ice emperor, the sharp weapon of Sakakibara can directly open the score. When the power to receive the serve is on the ice emperor's side You can organize the offense first and hit the opponent with a beautiful spike.

No matter what, the Ice Emperor will not suffer.

This is also one of the reasons why many schools are very envious of Sakakihara, who is the ice emperor.

It's really unreasonable for them not to be envious. As long as Sakakihara serves in the first game, he can directly open up a big gap advantage, which is very important for a game where the overall strength of the two sides is equal.

The members of Shitenbaoji didn't panic at all. Anyway, they already knew that Sakakihara's serve would be the result, and they were not in a hurry to equalize the score. They couldn't eat a fat man in one bite.

Steady and steady is the most suitable tactic for Sitianbaosi at this time.

The volleyball team of Sitianbaosi this year is very different from the previous ones, perhaps because the previous seniors have all graduated, this year it seems a bit strict, whether it is in training or in competitions, everyone is very strict with themselves. There is an accurate plan for the goal to be achieved, which has enabled Sitianbaosi to stabilize its seat in the top six in the country in a short period of time, and continue to attack the top four.

But it's a pity that Sitianbaosi won't be given a chance to hit the semi-finals this year. Meeting Bingdi in the semi-finals can be regarded as a very dark hand. Look at Wu Ye next door, and he hasn't encountered any strong opponents along the way. , the only Inarizaki was killed early, and Karasuno is very likely to face Hyotei in the next game or the next.

After calling a timeout at Shitenbao Temple, Tsukasa Sakakihara listened to Yusuke Shimizu talk to others about the problems that occurred on the court just now, and thought about the encounter with Karasuno. The opponent's unfocused eyes stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes: "Come back to your senses, what kind of mind is walking on the field? I don't know if you are still competing?"

After regaining his senses, Sakakihara frowned at his teammates who were looking over: "It's not because you have such strong backing."

"It's alright, alright, don't give us a high hat," Black Tail Tetsuro looked at Sakakibara with contempt. They had long been immune to Sakakibara's words. Only a few juniors in the first and second grades still felt that Sakakara's words were very They were so moved that they didn't listen to it no matter how many times they said it, "A Si, the opponent's main attacker seems to be eyeing you, and several of your attacks were brushed aside by him and failed to kill you."

Sakakihara took a sip of water and swallowed slowly to relieve the dry mouth and sore throat caused by exercise: "It's not like, he has been marking me from the beginning, but he didn't keep up with my speed at the beginning. Now I'm used to it." With my speed and rhythm, it is not an accident to be able to touch my spike, Niu Ruoarch and the others can do it."

"Snack, if it doesn't work, let the grinder use you as a cover to attract the other party's attention, and call away a strong blocker."

Lone Claw Grinding, whose name was suddenly mentioned, raised his head from the towel. Because Sitianbaosi knew him too well, he fought very hard. He felt a little tired before the second game was over.This is also the first time that Lone Claw Grind sits on the bench to recover his strength when the game is suspended.

As if he was exercising Lone Claw Grinding, Ji Sakakihara did not bring up his idea of ​​changing Lone Claw Grinding to play the setter position, but glanced at the sweaty Lone Claw Grinding and agreed to Shimizu's proposal.

"In the next few minutes, I will be very active in asking for the ball to run, grinding and judging whether it is necessary to give it to me, and I must be decisive without hesitation." Sakakihara said as he looked at Lone Claw Grinding's piercing cat eyes.

Lone Claw Grinding replied softly: "I know."

The ice emperor who restarted the game quickly showed the importance of Sakakihara Division on the field-even if he is not attacking, he can attract the attention of the front row block.

Blocking is a very important part in this kind of evenly matched game. It can not only allow your team to score, but also improve morale and make the atmosphere of the entire team play more smoothly.

This is the so-called rhythm.

When the opponent's powerful block is dispersed, it means that the energy efficiency of the opponent's block is greatly reduced.Because I don't know when Sakakibara and Lone Claw will cooperate by surprise, Shitianbaoji can't change people to mark Sakakihara. The rhythm of the attack, and the second reason is that their understanding of Lone Claw Grinding is not [-]%.

Half a month has passed since the previous co-camp, and no one can guarantee that Lone Claw Grinding is still standing still during this half month.

"Don't rush, don't rush—!" Sakakihara looked at the ball that was sent flying to his side and shouted, "ceBall!"

This is an excellent opportunity for Bingdi, and it is two points away from the match point of Bingdi. It is also good to end the game as soon as possible, but it is precisely because of this time that it is even more important to be steady and not to be impatient.

Lone Claw grinds the expressionless face full of sweat, and before wiping it off, it can only let it drip down along the arc of the face. He raised his arm and curled his fingers, feeling the position of the tape wrapped around his knuckles. Ready to pass.

Si Sakakihara in the second position has also opened his position and is ready to move.

Under the strict defense of Sitianbaoji, Lone Claw Grinding decisively passed the ball back to the best hitting point of the second position. He didn't look back to see if Sakakihara was keeping up with the shot, but watched closely A double block separated by a net.

Sakakihara took three steps in parallel and seemed to jump up very lightly. His slightly frowned eyebrows and sharp eyes made the whole person exude a light that cannot be ignored.The speed at which the arm is pressed down can be said to have exploded compared to the speed at which he was not given the ball before, as if he could only see afterimages.

When the block reacted, the ball had already hit the ground.

The first thing Sakakihara did when he landed was not to celebrate the goal with his teammates, but to rub his short sleeve with his hand to wipe away the sweat that was about to flow into his eyes.Almost all athletes in the competition will do this action, but Sakakihara's performance will not only make people feel unkempt, but will make people feel Sakakihara's chic side.

24:21, Ice Emperor match point.

It was Sakakihara who served the penalty kick.

When Sakakihara shifted from the second position to the first position and waited for the linesman to give him the ball, everyone knew that the game was over.

The team members of Sitianbao Temple actually already had a result in their minds, but they were still unwilling to give up.

What if?

What if Sakakihara made a mistake and missed the serve?What if Sakakihara's lack of physical strength and the decline in the power of his serve make them catch up with a pass and organize an attack?What if the ice emperor didn't receive their spike?

Everything is possible, Sakakihara's match point serve is not a reason for them to give up.

After thinking so many "what ifs", he couldn't resist Sakakibara who didn't give the possibility of "what ifs". A standard Sakakihara-style serve directly scored.

The arena was filled with cheers from the Ice Empress support team.

At 25:21, with a big score of 2:0, Sitianbaosi was eliminated.

"Thank you for your advice." The head of Shitenbaoji shook hands with Secretary Sakakibara in a complicated and emotional way.

Sakakihara is always in a good mood after winning the game, so he won't say anything to provoke hatred: "Thank you for your hard work."

After shaking hands with the opposing minister, the rest of the team trotted and clapped their hands. Sakakihara led the team to line up again and bowed to the stands on the field. He heard Lone Claw Grinder whisper to him next to him.

"Ace, thank you."

Secretary Sakakihara did not turn his head to look at the Lone Claw Grinding, but smiled towards the stands.
