IN THE TENSE MOMENTS THAT FOLLOWED, Komori Motoya was clearly struggling. Besides having to receive Ushijima Wakatoshi's powerful spikes, he also had to deal with Kobayashi Aotori's tricky and strange shots that made him grit his teeth in frustration.
If one had to prepare for the painful hands when receiving Ushijima's spikes, then to receive Kobayashi Aotori's shots, one had to prepare for being forced into a "prostrate" position.
T.N.: "五体投地" (prostrate oneself): This idiom means to admire or submit to someone completely, but here it's used humorously to suggest that trying to receive Aotori's serve will be so difficult that it will force the receiver into a state of complete submission.
But the physical damage wasn't the worst part—
After observing a few of Komori Motoya's dives, Kobayashi Aotori blinked and looked at him with a slightly disappointed expression.
This simple look made Komori Motoya, who was quickly getting up, freeze for a moment and almost stumble, wanting to shout:
Kobayashi Aotori, are you even human?! You forced me into a prostrate position, and you still think I'm embarrassing?!!
Komori Motoya had no idea that Kobayashi Aotori just found his movements unappealing. If he knew—
He would definitely be even more angry.
Sakusa watched as Komori Motoya's eyebrows almost flew off his face in anger. Under his accusatory gaze, Sakusa calmly looked away.
Hey! You also enjoy seeing me chase around to save the ball, don't pretend!
So, after the referee's whistle, despite Komori Motoya's efforts, Itachiyama managed to reclaim three points from the few volleyballs he saved from the other side. But just now, under Ushijima's powerful spike, Shiratorizawa reached the match point of the third set.
"Oh—!! Shiratorizawa! Shiratorizawa!!"
The commentator's booming voice was no match for the enthusiastic cheerleaders, not to mention the supporters and traitors among the audience.
It was Ushijima Wakatoshi's turn to serve on Shiratorizawa's side.
WHEN IT COMES TO SHIRATORIZAWA'S SERVES, unquestionably, the one everyone least wanted to face was Kobayashi Aotori, followed by Ushijima Wakatoshi.
After all, whether spiking or serving, this guy had not only the "innate advantage" of being a lefty but also a terrifyingly powerful force like a cannon.
Even for Komori Motoya, receiving Ushijima Wakatoshi's serve was quite a challenge.
Ushijima stood quietly behind the service line, but the surrounding atmosphere was noisy.
