"Welcome back to the IH National Qualifiers, and now it's time to start the second game between Municipal Sakae High School and Shiratorizawa Gakuen."

After the short advertising time ended, the commentator's calm voice came out of the radio again, "In the first game that just ended, Shi Lirong performed very steadily, and in the first game of the national competition, he showed the strength of the strong school and won the first game smoothly!" Shiratorizawa was a little chaotic at the beginning of the game, but by the end of the game, he had clearly stabilized his state. We look forward to seeing them bring us more exciting games! ”

"Ushijima, the game is about to start, it's time to prepare." A teammate walked over from the other end of the locker room.

Ushijima Ruoli's gaze lifted from his phone: "Okay." He lowered his eyes, and the moment before he pulled off the headphones, the voice of the commentator came from inside: "The second game begins!" Shiratorizawa serves—"

"Bang!"

"Ichijo Sakae's pass is very good! The setter Hayama followed, and the Yanagida brothers crossed to cover the attack! ”

Two white figures crossed over the arena and jumped at the same time. The shorter figure on the right raised his hand and slammed the ball.

"Right side!" Akakura rushed over and took the ball.

"One pass is a little crooked!" The commentator's eyes were very good, "Bai Bu reacted quickly and immediately adjusted his position - pass!" ”

Even though it was a makeshift pass, it still presented a pretty beautiful parabola under the setter's hands.

The silver-haired attacker jumped from the left marker, while the opposite Toshiaki Yanagida was also in place. Ryo Hoshino's eyes swept slightly, and before the net was completely formed in front of him, he waved his arm to dunk the ball.

Shinji Umihara, the liberator, immediately stepped forward and stretched out his arm—the ball grazed his hand and landed on the ground.

He was slightly stunned, only to hear the whistle sound:

"Beep!"

"Shiratorizawa scored and got off to a good start in the second game!"

Others gathered around to cheer them on. Naoto Hayama patted him and comforted, "It's okay, next ball!" ”

Shinji Umihara shook his head. The ball wasn't really fast, but it easily skimmed two people and landed before he could get there.

Quite tricky ball paths. The ball control ability of this Shiratorizawa master is estimated to be even higher than that in the data.

"Shiratorizawa continues to serve! The ball was a good one, and Sakae Ichi's pass was a little slower. Hayama retreats to adjust the pass, and it is Tomoaki Yanagida on the left who smashes the ball! ”

“ONETOUCH！”

"I'm coming!"

Yanagida Toshiaki stared closely at the movements of the light-haired setter. It's the left side again!

He ran to where the ball was going, and jumped—

"It's a little slash ball! Yanagida received a pass, but the ball was deflected! Rokukawa adjusts the pass, this time it's an attack in the middle! ”

The secondary attacker, who returned to the middle after blocking the net, took two steps back and jumped to smash the ball. Both arms appeared in front of him at the same time.

"Bang!"

"Successful blocking! Kaihara is in a good position and saves the ball! ”

At the beginning of the second game alone, the whole stadium showed a different atmosphere. For Sakae Ichi, they have been relatively consistent in their game, and even if it was their first game, they were able to get into the game faster

Race status. And Shi Lirong won the first game, which should have been stronger in momentum, so that when the opponent was not fully in the state, he could quickly win the game. But for some reason, the second game went differently than they had imagined.

Shiratorizawa's players seemed to be completely unaffected by the first game, not only did they not have the slightest frustration, but they improved a lot in attack and defense, and even a few goals could be said to be leaky.

This was the first time that Sakae Ichichi and Shiratorizawa had competed in a national tournament, and they had previously been limited to practice matches. Although it was expected that the other party's psychology would not be greatly hit, they were still a little surprised by the speed of adjustment. However, they had enough experience to quickly put these distractions behind and concentrate on the game.

- Except for Toshiaki Yanagida.

Ryo Hoshino squinted slightly, his amber pupils locked on the brown-haired secondary attacker's body, and he observed quietly. It's like a male lion hiberning after discovering its prey.

Everything about the prey was reflected in his eyes. The subtle movements, the expressions that flash on the faces after blocking the net and smashing the ball, and the environment around the opponent.

His previous impression of the team was based on the principle of wooden barrels. And when the other party reorganizes the new team, the barrel is also being disassembled and reorganized at the same time.

Despite the fact that after the reorganization of the barrels gets

The planks were longer, but the damage from dismantling remained.

Are the planks tight together? Does this board connect with other boards?

And the information revealed by one game is enough to answer these questions.

"Hakubu passed the ball to Hoshino again! This time it's the back row attack,—— beautiful! It's the thugs out of bounds! Shiratorizawa scores another point! ”

"Tsk!"

Yanagida Toshiaki, who was standing on the sidelines, frowned.

This No. 1 offense is really tough! The previous Ushijima Wakari was just a simple giant + spin, but this No. 1 offensive means can be said to be completely varied!

At the same time, Coach Shi Lirong beside him also looked thoughtful.

He was thinking about the information he had seen about the other person before.

In addition to this IH prefectural qualifier, the one that can be used for analysis is last year's IH national competition, and there is almost a full ten months of information difference in between.

He had seen the video of the final of the Miyagi Prefecture Qualifiers, and the opponent's performance was already amazing enough at that time, so when he knew the opponent of this match, he decisively made No. 1 the focus of observation.

However, when he actually faced this person on the field, he felt that intelligence was really just intelligence.

A student who can become a leader in the first grade, and a captain who can lead the team to win the championship from a strong sports county, even if you have read the relevant materials, does not mean that you can calmly deal with such a person in the game.

In the first game, when the other players were not in good shape, the scoring rate of No. 1 remained at a fairly high level, and he almost took on the offensive banner in the early and middle stages.

And now in the second game, although the number of attacks has decreased, the offensive efficiency is not low at all.

This is the new Shiratorizawa trump card, and it is indeed the consistent selection style of Coach Washika.

How come such an excellent seedling has never been heard of before?

He thought to himself.

On the field, in the middle of the game

, Shiratorizawa's players are clearly fully in the game. Although Hiroshi Rong tried to open the score, it didn't work much, and the game situation that seemed to be swords and swords from the beginning is now more and more stalemate.

After another ball landed, Ryo Hoshino moved from the back row to the front row.

He moved his hands and feet, his gaze swept over the brown-haired secondary attacker on the opposite side.

"Shiratorizawa serves! Bai Bu's serve was as tricky as ever, and Shi Lirong's reaction was good, and the pass was very stable! ”

"Mid lane!"

“ONETOUCH！”

"The ball is passed to Hoshino! Hoshino jumps and smashes the ball! - Touched the ball! Municipal Rong organized a counteroffensive, which was a fast attack on the left! Shiratorizawa also managed to touch the ball! ”

Yanagida Toshiaki looked at the figure on the opposite side who had retreated again, and his back molars grinded fiercely.

"The city Rong blocked the net and sealed the straight line! - Oh! It's a lob in the front court! Umihara saves the ball, but the ball bounces straight back to the Shiratorizawa field! ”

"Chance Ball!"

"White cloth senior!"

Kenjiro Hakubu, who was raising his hand to pass the ball, saw the silver-haired attacker's thumb pointing up and signaling to him.

The setter didn't hesitate and raised his arms.

Yanagida Toshiaki, who was observing his movements on the other side, looked up and thought subconsciously in his mind.

Isn't this ball a little too high?

- Not high.

The next moment, someone told him the answer with practical actions. The figure of the silver-haired attacker chased after the ball, and the hem of his clothes flew with the sound of hunting.

In the blink of an eye, the silver-haired boy reached the apex, which was a terrifying height. At first glance, almost half of the boy's body is over the net.

Outside the field, Coach Shi Lirong's face was instantly distorted.

At this height, I'm afraid Shiratorisawa isn't a seedling from the high jump team, right?!

At absolute height, the barricade does not work at all. Ryo Hoshino threw his arm down heavily.

"Bang!!"

The ball hit the ground with a bang.

And the young man who fell to the ground shook his body lightly and stabilized his body, "Hey", "I almost subconsciously crossed back, but fortunately it stopped." ”

Toshiaki Yanagida: "......"

So you're really a high jumper!!
