Chapter 67
"Eh? So after coming out of the zoo, Coach Tianhai came to the training ground to clean up the little rabid dog..." Oikawa
sat with long legs on the rooftop steps of the club resting, hearing Kyoutani's miserable devil training, Laughing very wildly.
There is no sense of teammate camaraderie or sense of being a senior.
At the same time, in Miyagi Prefecture late at night, Tenkai turned on the lamp in front of his desk and told Oikawa about the situation in the team.
——The more the opponent knows about the team's situation, the less time it will take to adapt after returning from summer camp.
"The team held two practice matches a few days ago, Date Industrial and Karasuno."
Tianhai paused.
In addition to these two schools, there was also a training match scheduled with Shiratorizawa.
Unfortunately, with Ushijima and Tendo's summer camp studies, the competition between the two schools was also postponed.
"Oh? Teacher mentioned this matter, do you have anything to say?"
Oikawa asked, feeling that Tianhai's attitude towards Date Industrial and Karasuno had changed.
"Well, I really need to tell you and Iwaizumi." Tianhai took out a few brand-new papers from the pages next to the table,
"Datego has a secondary attacker who is 1.9 meters tall and a main attacker who is 1.84 meters tall. Technical It’s not bad. He started playing in the first grade.
Only Nakakuru and Sojima were able to break through his block in the training match.
Kyotani’s spikes were not blocked by that “Aone Takanobu”, but they were still a bit impatient. There was no way to avoid Date Industrial's third-year assistant attacker.
As for Hanamaki, without Oikawa's setter and not having much cooperation with Kusukawa, his performance was not ideal.
"Hey - with this height, Date Gong is completely invincible now... It's so distressing. What about Karasuno? What kind of difficult opponent has appeared again?"
Oikawa frowned and pouted in displeasure. Happy - there are more powerful opponents again.
"Karakuno's libero." Tianhai took out a form recording Nishitani Yu's receiving records.
"His level is comparable to that of Moto Komori whom we talked about before."
Komori's level has received the highest praise from the National Comprehensive Sports Center. Recognized by many prestigious schools.
In Tianhai's mind, Nishigu's libero level, which is tied with the opponent's, is also at the national level.
"A national-level free agent? Then why do you want to go to Karasuno?
Could it be that you are also attracted by the [Little Giant]?" Oikawa boldly made a guess.
Is it the same as Xiangyang?
Tianhai recalled how this libero, who was less than 1.6 meters tall, looked crazy when he saw the Qingcheng girls coming to cheer for the volleyball club. He shook his head and said,
"Not sure."
A message suddenly came from the other end of the phone. There was a "squeak" sound, as if someone had opened the door to the rooftop.
The next second, Iwaizumi's voice sounded,
"Hey, Oikawa, it's time for training in the afternoon."
Tianhai looked up at the clock - it was already ten o'clock in the evening in Japan, which meant that it was training time in the Netherlands at two o'clock in the afternoon . .
"Teacher, I'm going to train first! See you tomorrow!"
Oikawa quickly hung up the phone.
.
Tianhai looked at the extinguished mobile phone screen and suppressed the words on his lips.
"I wanted to ask how their training was..."
It has been a week since the five students arrived in the Netherlands, and the entire summer camp is already halfway through.
During these seven days, Oikawa contacted him most frequently.
"Would you like to fly over and have a look at them that day?" Feeling some anxiety in Ashu's heart, Seichi suggested,
"The two training matches in Qingcheng are over. Next time, we will stay in Hyogo Prefecture and Inarizaki. It’s also a week later.”
In other words, there’s still enough time!
Instead of worrying in Miyagi, it's better to go there directly and see what's going on.
Wanting to understand this, Tianhai immediately wrote a message to ask Coach Irihata. After getting a positive reply, I quickly booked a direct flight to the Netherlands the next day.
——As for whether the club members agree or disagree, visiting students while they are at summer camp is completely within the rules.
"The flight is at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, and we will go directly to the club then."
After packing his luggage, Tianhai sent another text message before going to bed, informing everyone that he would be there tomorrow.

Revi Bernese Club
"Hey - pass it here!"
the main attacker Jeter shouted reluctantly, replacing his former teammate three days ago. Oikawa became the team's starting setter.
Since he couldn't pronounce the Roman pronunciation of "Oikawa", he directly called him "Hey" - the pronunciation was pretty much the same anyway, even if it was a little disrespectful, it didn't matter.
Iwaizumi frowned as he stood watching the battle.
Kit, the gray-haired young man, also had a very bad attitude towards Oikawa. Even though Oikawa had given him a well-placed pass, he was still complaining.
"This height is too high. I thought that as a lifter, you would at least remember the height of your teammates."
Kit's tone was very aggressive, and Oikawa was angry after landing.
Tendo, who was in the same group as Iwaizumi, secretly whispered into Iwaizumi's ear,
"This person's friend was originally the starting setter in Group D. After Oikawa became the main selection, he became his substitute."
He gestured to the person next to him with a clear look. A blond young man with dissatisfaction. He just heard this from his teammates today.
Oikawa on the court did not apologize to Kit.
On the contrary, in the following time, everyone obviously felt that Oikawa passed the ball less to Kit.
"Are you retaliating? You didn't give me the ball on purpose? Because I pointed out that your ball was too high?"
Kit saw the coach paying attention to this side from the corner of his eye. He didn't show it on his face, but he really hoped that the other side would say " Revenge" the words of his teammates.
——Players from the club’s summer camp and youth training train together. Under the pressure of competition, not all players can get along harmoniously.
However, the club has express regulations that prohibit all players from targeting teammates due to personal feelings on the court.
Jeter was confident that he could hide his behavior of venting his bad mood on the court, but he hoped that the setter who seemed to be bullied would be dismissed by the coach.
Coach Broad also focused his attention on Oikawa -
he knew that this student was recommended by Tian Haishu, and his application was even approved first. His strength is also affirmed by himself.
He wanted to know how this player, who had come all the way from Japan, would solve the problem.
"The pass I passed to you was around 330cm. According to public data, your unassisted running height was between 335cm and 338cm, but you still told me that the pass was high."
Oikawa turned around and looked at Kit indifferently, " Then, I'm sorry."
"When I pass the ball, I will give priority to teammates who can score, not players who are 330cm tall."
...
Iwaizumi silently covered his heart and sighed inwardly,
"Oikawa, the way you beat him up is so handsome."
It was hard for him to believe that Oikawa, who had just shown off his arrogance and coolness, turned out to be his usual self-deprecating self. Young tame dye.
As a coach who saw the whole process, Coach Brod basically agreed with Oikawa's point of view - Kit said the ball was high. No more than 335cm.
So Kit Meimei and the former setter became friends on the bench again.
"Everyone on this side of the net is a teammate. Any deliberately provocative behavior is not allowed."
After announcing the punishment, the coach beat the players again before notifying them to start taking a rest.
It's normal to want to compete, but you have to show magnanimity and compete openly and honestly! Their club, Rivi Bernanese, do not accept on-field brawls.
"A few strings, well done!"
Zephnaia, a secondary attacker from the same team, came up to talk. He tried his best to read the string of Roman sounds, but the result was still a little distorted.
Zevnaia has long disliked Kit - he has a very bad attitude in the team. Everyone is a reserve of professional players, why should we put up with his bad temper.
"It's nothing, what I said is true." Oikawa shook his head, smiled at Zevnaia, and walked towards the two Iwaizumi from Group C who had already rested.
Tendou handed over the salt water with concern in his eyes,
"Are you okay? Oikawa?" His childhood experience made him not have the slightest fondness for people like Kit.
"Oikawa-sama won't let idiots affect my mood~ Besides, the other teammates are very cooperative."
Oikawa told the two not to worry, and then brought the topic back to the club.
"Just looking at this week, it turns out that this is the strength of the players in the professional club. It's really not bad at all."
After coming here and truly experiencing the characteristics of the team, Oikawa knew the reason why Tianhai chose to be in the Netherlands
- even though he recently The Netherlands does not perform well in the international arena, but the strengths of the club are exactly what high school students like them should learn from.
Comprehensive skills and strong flexibility, excellent smashing and serving skills, and stable serve-receiving ability.
In addition, there are tactical awareness and organizational skills that need to be improved most at this stage.
"Yeah - Jolly has been practicing serving with their team's main attacker recently." Tendo held his cheek.
It’s been a long time since I had dinner with Ruoli. I don’t know if he is alone in Group A.
In order to allow the five people to adapt to the club's rhythm faster, the head coach Eleanor, who is also a good friend of Tianhai's father Lucas, randomly divided the five people into four groups. Only Iwaizumi and Tendo train in the same group.
So far, among the five members, Ushijima and Oikawa have temporarily replaced the original members and become the starters in the daily training matches.
"Originally Mutu planned to let him play, but then their captain was frightened by his negative mode."
Mutu is the worst at English among the five, and the few words he knows is "HEEEY". The team members, whose native language is Dutch, are almost in a primitive state of gesticulating and communicating.
Fortunately, the people in their team have good tempers, and Mutu is as lively as the sun, so the atmosphere in their team is actually good.
Oikawa took out his phone from his backpack and glanced at it casually, but saw Tianhai's text message.
"Oikawa, I will leave for the club tomorrow morning and look forward to meeting you!"
- And the news came from three hours ago.
"Teacher Tianhai sent a message! He said he will come over tomorrow!"
Iwaizumi and Tendo also took out their mobile phones and saw the same message. But they all missed out due to training.
The three of them were holding mobile phones with the same smile on their faces.
Even though they knew the other person must have gone to bed, they responded quickly.
"Okay! Teacher Tianhai~ Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow~"
"See you tomorrow, Teacher Tianhai."
"Teacher Tianhai, come quickly! We miss you so much!"
