-Shiratorizawa vs Karasuno-
(Part 2)

☆-[•●•]-☆

"Ushijima-san!" Shirabu yelled as he tossed for the ace. Wakatoshi jumped with all his might and and spiked it with his left hand, making his spike's direction go a little bit off from straight, unabling the three-person block. It was in.

Hinata held his voice in as the pain from the three-person block was swelling.

The Shiratorizawa cheer squad cheered as their school was first to reach 25 points. Shiratorizawa took the first set.

Tsukishima sighed, seemed as like he can't do anything about it.

It was time for the two teams to change courts as the referee whistled. "Don't give up! It's only the beginning!" Saeko yelled. "Switch it up!!" Yachi added.

Karasuno grouped up once more and talked things out from earlier match. "There's no reason to panic. They just happened to take the first out of five matches, and about this match.." Ukai looked at Kiyoko who tilted the board she was holding, letting Ukai see the record.

"–Ushijima scored 11 points, so he scored half of the points. But the fact that the ball is going to Ushijima so often, means that you're frustrating Shiratorizawa that much. Ushijima is also human. He'll eventually reach his limit. He'll eventually feel even the attacks that he's not making himself. Don't forget that!" Ukai tried to clear his team's minds over anything.

"Hai!"

The whistle blew and the second set started.

Shiratorizawa - Karasuno

Set 2

0 - 0

Goshiki was first to serve the ball. "You got this, Tsutomu!" Hayato cheered as Goshiki dribbled the ball a few times. "Hai!" He then tossed the ball up, building up his momentum before slamming the ball. "Good-!"

The ball flew to the other side of the net and Daichi in time saved the ball upwards when it was close to drop on the front, making the other spikers from the back have chance to counter attack with their new synchronized attack.

Kageyama tossed to Asahi and he slammed it down to the other side, making Hayato flinch at the pain. The ball dropped on their court, earning Karasuno a point.

"Yosh!" Daichi pumped up.

"Go! Go! Karasuno! Push it! Push it! Karasuno!" The Karasuno's cheering squad on the bleachers started yelling.

"I'm loving the sound of this." Tsuchiya grins. "This is the first that the vice-principal cheered for us." Sugawara chuckled. "Yeah, I actually didn't expect this whole crowd. I thought we're just soaring by ourselves again." Tsuchiya puts a hand on his hip as he looked at the people at the bleachers.

Ojiro received Daichi's serve. "Nice receive!" Shirabu yelled, looking up as he anticipated the ball on the air. Upon making contact on his fingertips, he sets it towards his back and Taichi slammed it down, even Nishinoya couldn't keep up.

"Nice."

"Yup!"

Taichi gave Shirabu a thumbs up. Tsukishima, who was supposed to block, stared at them in silence.

"In the case of Shiratorizawa, the fact that they're going to the center line without using Ushijima is showing that they have the upper hand. If the center line starts functioning, we're not going to be able to handle Ushijima or either of their wings spikers." Ukai spoke out to Kiyoko and Takeda at the bench as he watches the game carefully.
