Kenji: picking up the volleyball, feeling its familiar weight Tobio, can you come here for a sec?

Kageyama: jogs towards Kenji Okay...

Hinata follows Kageyama, curiosity lighting up his eyes.

Kenji: I want to try something out, so no matter what happens here, toss to me, okay?

Kageyama: slightly confused Okay?

Kenji tosses the ball to Kageyama. As Kageyama catches it, Kenji suddenly dashes toward the right side of the court. Kageyama notices this and, without hesitation, tosses the ball high behind him. Kenji leaps into the air, preparing to spike with his left hand. The ball sails straight down the line.

Kageyama: eyes widening in surprise Left-handed?!

Hinata: jumps in excitement OHHHH!!!

Kenji: landing smoothly So this way, I'll be dangerous no matter where I am on the court. I just wanted to show you. Use me however you want, okay?

Kageyama's face lights up with excitement. He bows deeply.

Kageyama: I'll try my best, sir!!

Kenji: chuckles, feeling satisfied Alright, get some sleep. Tomorrow's our practice match. And don't forget to stretch afterward—you too, Shoyo.

Kageyama: Yes, sir!!

Hinata: Yes, sir!!
