[Volleyball] Black and White

Sakakihara is a little at a loss for the current state of the team. The main reason is that he has never encountered such a situation. Since he started playing in elementary school until now, this is the first time he has faced the problem of the dull playing atmosphere of his teammates.Now it can no longer be said to be dull, but rather embarrassing. Even Tetsuro Kurobi and Yusei Shimizu, who were replaced on the field, gradually stopped calling for the ball, which made Sakakihara feel a little sad.

——It’s so dull, is Nakatsunan’s school poisonous?

It may be the first time I saw Sakakihara Tsukasa's dazed and anxious expression. Everyone was amused by Sakakihara Tsukasa's expression.

"I said... do you need some strong antidote?"

"For example?" Xiao Linyuan raised his eyelids.

Tsukasa Sakakibara looked back at the ball handed over by the line referee with his double eyelids covered: "For example, training tripled or something."

"This kind of threatening memes that are used every time is really enough." Jiang Ze pushed his glasses and complained, "Can't you change the words?"

"It doesn't matter if you are old, as long as it is useful." Anyway, the two first-year students cheered up, as if they were not the two of them who had no fuel and no motivation just now.

The loss in the first game made Bingdi's players change a little bit, but it's also very strange that there is only a little change, and they are completely different from the team that played very openly before.After Sakakibara opened the score, he lowered his center of gravity and prepared to pass a pass. It was only then that Nakatsunan's problem was noticed by Sakakihara, who had time to observe the opposite side.

Team members disagree.

It is not a problem of running-in between players, but a problem of getting along with each other.

Mr. Sakakihara pulled Kobayashi Haru who was about to turn to serve and said something in a low voice. Then, facing Ryo Kobayashi's gaze, Sakakihara slightly raised the corners of his lips, and showed a gentle smile at Ryo Kobayashi.

Xiao Linyuan clicked his tongue: "A Si, you are really a bit insidious."

"En? How can you say that I'm insidious?" Sakakihara Division was a little surprised, "Is this something that anyone with normal thinking can think of?"

——I don't have normal thinking, I'm really sorry for you...

Xiao Linyuan was complained about and put on a loveless expression, walked to the bottom line and prepared to serve.

Kawakami of Nakatsu Minami was in the back row, and Kobayashi Yuan's serve happened to be between Kawakami and another player, as Sakakihara had expected.Kawakami collided with another player and received a pass.

Hyotei served and scored. Kobayashi took a look at the back of the head of Sakakibara who did not look back, couldn't help but "tsk", patted the ball and waited for the whistle of the serve.

The barrage of such balls caused some commotion in Nakatsumina's half. Although the offense was organized, it looked as if everyone was holding fire.Until the ball that should have been passed to Kawakami and Oshima was directly entrusted to the back row by the setter, and even gave up the offense when the back row couldn't keep up and hit the small ball directly.

Nakatsunan's players quarreled on the field.

This is almost unbelievable. Everyone stared at Nakatsunan's half, and Nakatsunan's supervisor signaled the referee to call a timeout.

Kobayashi patted Sakakihara on the shoulder: "How did you find out, Asi? Logically speaking, it's already at this time, shouldn't this happen?"

Sakakihara shrugged, walked to the side of the coaching bench with the others, wiped the sweat from his palms with a towel: "I don't know why they did this on the field, anyway, it's good for us."

"Well... I heard that it seems that their main attack and secondary attack are too..." Koizumi cut in when he heard the conversation between the two, hesitated for a while, and searched for adjectives in his mind, "Conceited ?So other people have been dissatisfied with them for a long time."

"How did Koizumi-san know?" Sato Kei asked curiously.

"Ah, I always have someone I know." Koizumi Kei waved his mobile phone with his back to Shigeo Shōhara, "Of course I asked!"

Sakakihara took a sip of water and turned his gaze to Nakatsunan's coach bench. Their supervisor seemed to be swearing, and everyone lowered their heads and did not move.The short timeout ended and the game restarted. After the timeout, Nakatsunan seemed to have returned to the way it was at the beginning, without the appearance of infighting just now.

"-Senior, be careful!" Sakakihara quickly reached out his hand to stop Akira Takishima.

It was Akira Takishima who came to save the ball and almost lost his strength and hit the net frame. Because the ball hadn't landed yet, Akira Takishima quickly returned to his position before he could say anything.

With no attack, Ice Emperor stared at the trajectory of the earth on the opposite field, and Sakakibara and Iriezawa moved side by side to block the net.

"right!"

The double block scored, 21:19, and the ice emperor took the lead.

Shigeo Shōhara signaled to the referee to make a substitution, and Kei Sato stood on the sidelines holding a sign with 12 on it. Seeing this, Ayuu Shimizu ran over immediately, and stood with Comet Sato holding the sign number 12 on the sidelines for a few seconds before playing On the field, Kei Sato, who was replaced, swept away the previous sluggish state and was in high spirits.

"Asi!" Sato Kei reached out and slapped Sakakihara on the back, "Pass me more penalties later!"

Sakakihara slowly reached out and touched the place where he was hit on his back: "Senior, I'm glad to see that you have the idea of ​​asking for the ball, but I still want to say that you just rested off the court to the point where you lost your mind. ?"

Sato Kei: "...huh?"

Xiao Linyuan took care of this mentally handicapped man with kind eyes: "A Si means, after playing for so long, why are you still stuck in the time of the second and fourth?"

Sato Comet: "..." Why is it so difficult to liven up the atmosphere?He felt that his life was so difficult that he didn't even see it.

The game continued, and the cheers from the stands never stopped. Even when they lost to Nakatsunan in the first game, the people in the stands were still working hard to cheer for the ice emperor.

Maybe it was really because of the cheering in the stands, or maybe it was because the emotions on the field were aroused by the teamwork of Sakakihara and Sato Comet. After Sato Comet replaced, Hyotei scored consecutively, and it was over in less than 10 minutes Second inning.

25: 20.

When changing venues, Sakakihara saw Kawakami walking on the opposite side staring at him with an indescribably strange gaze.

Putting the other party's gaze behind him, Sakakihara and his teammates stood in front of Shigeo Xiangyuan to listen to the supervisor's opinion on how to play just now and the next game.

When Ice Emperor returned to his usual game state, Nakatsunan was no match for Ice Emperor at all, not to mention that the opposing team was still "perfectly compatible".Like a couple who are about to get divorced, on the surface they look amiable, but in private they wish they could never get in touch with each other.

Shigeo Xianghara can also understand that the supervisor of the other side has no idea of ​​substitutions. To be honest, if the substitutions are really made, the only choice is to replace the two attackers, and if the two attackers are really replaced, Nakatsunan will not have Entered the national competition results.

3:1, Bingdi successfully entered the quarter-finals.

The two sides stood in front of the net and faced each other across a net. It was only when Sakakihara shook hands with Kawakami that he realized what the look in Kawakami's eyes meant.

"Sakaki-kun, how did you do... like this?" Kawakami held Sakakibara's hand in a complicated way.

Sakakihara Division didn't understand what the other party meant, and tilted his head slightly showing a puzzled expression.

"I mean...the atmosphere in your team is so good..." Kawakami seemed a little unsure how to organize his words, "I heard that your ice emperor training is also very strict..."

Only then did Sakakihara understand what the other party was trying to say, he thought for a while, then let go of Kawakami's hand and said.

"The team is very important. Because volleyball is never a game of one or two people."

When walking back to the lounge, the two people around Sakakihara remained silent as if they were thinking about something.

Sakakihara Division was a little strange: "Senior, what are you thinking? Is there a match against Shiratorizawa tomorrow?"

"No." Sato Hui shook his head, "I was just thinking about what you said to Nakatsunan the main attacker just now."

"Ah, that." Tsukasa Sakakihara smiled, "Volleyball is not a game for one or two players. Have you ever seen someone play a game with only one player?"

Sato Comet: "..." What?

Into Jiang Ze: "..." Is it such a simple reason?

Xiao Linyuan: "..." I actually think what A Si said is very philosophical?

Heiwei Tielang: "..." I was really brain-dead to think seriously about Asi's words.

"What's that expression for?" Sakakihara Division felt a little annoying seeing the four pairs of dead fish eyes dangling in front of him.

"No, it's nothing." Xiao Linyuan said indifferently, "I just suddenly wanted to act like a broken boulder in my chest."

Sakakihara Division: "..."

On the same road, the group of Hiotei who came out of the lounge and walked towards the parking lot outside the arena met Shiratorizawa's team. Shiratorizawa's team uniform is actually very conspicuous, such a large area of ​​white.In fact, very few teams would choose such a uniform color. Even the short sleeves inside the Ice Emperor are mostly black. People may have never stood up, and the team uniforms get dirty easily.

Ushijima Wakari stared at the ice emperor and the others with a calm expression, and stood in front of Sakakihara Tsukasa.

"I apologize for saying that Ice Emperor is an unknown elementary school." Ushijima Wakari has always been a person who has something to say, standing face to face with Sakakihara Tsukasa, Ushishima Wakuri realized that Sakakihara Ji had already made up with her He is as tall as him, "But I still think Shiratorizawa is your best choice."

Tsukasa Sakakibara has a headache, Ushishima Wakari wants him to go to Shiratorizawa every time he sees him, maybe not to Shiratorizawa, but to partner with him.Sakakihara raised his hand and pressed the center of his eyebrows, then raised his eyebrows at Ushishima Wakari: "I said Ushiwaka, do you have any ideas... Come to Ice Emperor?"
