Chapter 10

Tianhai walked around the huge campus in the west of Aoye City twice, and finally found the volleyball club gymnasium with the help of Shiyi.

When you enter the gym, training has already begun.

Tianhai nodded inwardly as he looked at the main players who were training in groups of three and the substitute players who were conducting 2v2 in an attempt to break through in actual combat.

It can be seen that they are very serious and do not pretend to be fake.

Tianhai thought no one noticed his subtle observation, but in fact every team member noticed this "uninvited guest" who suddenly broke in.

After all, it was like being scanned by a cold AI, and the feeling of being seen through made people feel a chill down their backs.

Coach Sadyuki Mizoguchi looked at this foreign friend who seemed lost and closed the record book in his hand. He walked over and asked politely:

"Hello, this is the Aoba Castle West Volleyball Club. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Are you lost?"

I saw the person in front of me, Shi Shiran, looking away from the people training to himself, calmly. Asked:

"Hello, are you still recruiting coaches here?"

Mizoguchi Saduki dropped the pen in his hand to the ground.

After being notified by the team members, Nobuteru Irihata walked out of the coaching room and saw the young man who the team members said "boldly" wanted to be their coach.

The young man in sportswear looked like he was only in high school, but coach Irihata, who had been in the industry for many years, keenly smelled the aura of an old fox from him who was also a senior coach.

Coach Irihata, who trusted his instincts very much, invited people into the coaching room.

Tianhai, who faced Mizoguchi Saduki's resentful look, was very confused. It must be the first time for him to meet this passionate coach today. Why is his gaze so strange?

Mizoguchi Sadyuki watched this future colleague and head coach who wanted to steal his job enter the coaching room. He felt as if he was being scratched by a cat and wanted to follow him, but he also had to watch these brats train.

"Ueda! Don't be in a daze! Move your feet! Otherwise, it's not training!"

Even if he moved his eyes slightly, he keenly noticed that Ueda was slacking off, and he shouted quickly.

------------------------ In

the coaching room

, Iriyata held out two thin pages of paper with slightly trembling hands.

Although there is not much content, it pierces the heart with precision like a sharp knife. Like a scratch that appears when the back is itchy, it quickly and accurately solves the existing dilemma.

The content on the paper should be analyzed from practice games or official games. Because some problems in daily practice were not pointed out, but the important points lost in the game and the methods for improvement were clearly summarized in just a few sentences.

If according to what the young man in front of him said, he summarized this in just one month, then this person must stay.

Otherwise, if he went to another school, let alone defeating Shiratorizawa, Aoba Johsai would be in danger of even reaching the semifinals.

If he had known that this piece of paper only took two or three days to complete, Coach Irihata would definitely package the person in front of him and send it to Coach Hakiki Kotaro.

"There is no shortage of coaches for the volleyball team now, but..."

Coach Irihata, who was about to show off his talents before he suppressed them, turned to the next piece of paper - [Analysis of Wakutanan School] and paused.

Seeing that the other party stopped mid-sentence, Tianhai, thinking that the other party was rejecting politely, could not hide his disappointment.

"Okay, if there is no shortage..."

"No, no, no! I mean, although there is no shortage, if coach Tianhai wants to come, our entire Aoba City will welcome him."

After two or three glances [Wakuya Coach Irihata from Minami School Analysis hurriedly spoke.

This analysis paper, which was similar to Aoba Jonishi's, meant that if he had not agreed to Tenkai's stay, this talented coach who fell from the sky would have turned around and thrown himself into the arms of Kazumi Minami.

Ignoring Tianhai's movement of reaching out to analyze the paper, he folded the two papers and put them into his notebook. Coach Irihata then started to introduce the various treatments of Coach Aoba Jonishi.

Twenty minutes later, the two came out of the coaching room and gave a brief explanation to Mizoguchi Saduki. Coach Irihata called all the players together.

"Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Amami, coach Amami. After today, he will practice and compete with you as our coach in Aoba Jonishi. Everyone is welcome."

Amid the welcome applause, Maebashi Kaixiang and Ueda The two of them looked at each other, unable to hide the surprise in their eyes.

A foreigner became my coach?

"Hello everyone, I am very happy to be your coach. Let's work hard together in the future. Bravely go to the whole country!"

Coach Irihata and Coach Mizoguchi discussed it. According to Aoba Jonishi's practice, the volleyball club will organize a physical fitness test after each holiday.

First, because the bodies of boys in the developmental period of high school develop very quickly, and there may be huge changes after each holiday. Timely testing allows coaches to understand their players without delay.

Secondly, it is to check whether these fun-loving students have trained well during the holidays.

Aoba Jonishi started school earlier than other high schools, and it will be time to start school in a few days. Since some new members have joined the team, it’s better to take this opportunity to test it out.

Coach Mizoguchi looked at the records in the notebook and his eyes widened.

This data has exceeded his expectations. It seems that everyone did not give up training during the holidays.

He turned to the new colleague next to him and saw that he also had a record folder in his hand. He was a little curious but held it back.

Is this new colleague who just graduated from high school as good as Coach Irahata said?

Standing next to the basketball hoop, looking at the lime pink handprints of each player, Tian Haishu couldn't see the expression on his face.

He pointed to the name "Oikawa Toru" on the paper and asked,

"Why didn't Oikawa-san come?"

When Iwaizumi, who was standing behind the crowd, heard this, he took two steps forward and replied, "He said he had something to do today and asked for leave. "

Are you asking for leave?

Tianhaishu nodded noncommittally.

The last meeting between the two of them could be described as careless, and he didn't even exchange a few words with the setter. I thought I could see it today, but I missed it.

When Iwaizumi saw that the new coach didn't say anything, he walked back.

We haven’t had a chance to understand the character of this coach yet, so I wish him good luck with his training.

After testing all the basic items, under the instructions of the other two coaches, the 3V3 began with the internal members.

Compared with 6v6, 3V3 has more flexible personnel arrangements, and it is easier to see each person's offensive style and strengths and weaknesses. Many schools will choose to use 3V3 in their orientation games to observe the strength of their players.

"Ueda, Maebashi, and Toijima, your team will face Touji, Nakatsuru, and Kusukawa."

"Iwaizumi, Matsukawa, and Manda, you three will face Hanamaki, Onda, and Shido."

As soon as this lineup came out, everyone except Tianhai became aware of it. Here we are —

coaches are already thinking about the next main draft.

As soon as the spring high school qualifying competition ends in October, if they do not get the right to represent the spring high school, the third-year seniors will retire and concentrate on preparing for the exam.

In order to avoid gaps during official competitions, it is necessary to select capable newcomers this summer and focus on training them.

"Please give me some advice."

Both parties bowed and then stood at both ends of the net.

Under the reminder of coach Mizoguchi, Tianhai also understood the purpose of this game.

While walking around the field observing, taking notes.

The third-year offensive captain Ueda Gosuke

looks very easy-going, but his playing style is steady and he catches the ball very steadily. There is a tacit understanding with the front axle, and it is quickly picked up after touching it.

Maebashi Kaixiang, the No. 2 assistant in WS,

looks innocent on the outside, but shows no mercy when blocking. The level of adaptive blocking is good. Jumping ability needs to be improved.

However, he lacks the skills to control the setter position and the ball given to the setter is not stable enough. If I remember correctly, when I played against Kazumi Minami this year, I was beaten by Nakajima several times.

Dongji Huan MB second-year assistant attacker

Tianhai raised an eyebrow when he saw this assistant attacker who was close to 190cm in height.

He has good height, but his advantage in blocking is not reflected at all. If your hands are long and your legs are long, you can quickly reflect and choose emergency blocks. It is easy to be deceived by the opponent's eyes if you choose to block in advance. Technology needs to be improved.

Soujima Naoto WS is

a second-year attacker who can think and his acting skills make it difficult to tell where he wants to smash the ball. On the opposite side, Touji Kankui was confused by the deception and began to tremble with anger. Catching needs improvement.

Nakatsuru Taiyo WS focuses on second-year

Iwaizumi WS and focuses on first-year

Matsukawa Kazushige

...

Aoba Jonishi Volleyball Club is a strong school in Miyagi Prefecture and has many members in the club.

By the time the game is over, even if they have used extremely brief The words summarized all the members, and Tianhai's record folder was filled with three large pieces of paper.

Looking at the analysis in his hand, Tianhaishu nodded.

Regardless of whether they are on the main roster or not, these members take the game seriously. Coach Irihata also said that the players are very obedient.

So, when preparing a training plan, don’t be merciful.

Tianhaishu slowly showed a devilish smile.

When we walked out of Qingcheng campus, it was already dusk.

Thinking of today's smooth "application" experience, Tianhai sighed.

I originally wanted to go see Kutanami, but coach Irihata didn't give him the opportunity and started working seamlessly.

Office workers have finished their day's work and are walking on the streets of Aoba Town. The prosperity of the night is gradually revealed in front of people.

Tianhai was walking home carelessly. Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed across a slightly crowded street.

Oikawa Tooru?

He immediately stopped moving forward and Tianhaishu followed.

The other party's destination is...a ramen restaurant?

The ramen shop looks to be quite old. The interior is small but cozy.

It's dinner time now, and the restaurant is already full of people.

Seeing Oikawa sitting down, Tianhai also sat in the seat next to him.

Could it be that the ramen here tastes particularly delicious?

Otherwise, why would Oikawa Tooru show up at a ramen shop in the commercial street to eat in the evening.

There were many types of menus, and Tianhai, who didn't know how to choose, casually ordered the recommended set menu in the store.

Tianhai was waiting for the ramen when Oikawa Tooru, who was next to him, suddenly turned around and asked,

"I said, you followed me here, what's the matter?"

Oh, he was discovered.
