2011. That was when earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, changing thousands of lives. 

And Kobayashi Yuki is just one of them.

A month ago, he was just a normal boy, graduating from a small middle school in Fukushima and was excited to go to the high school. However, the disaster changed his life. He lost both parents, not because they died, but because they were still missing until now. 

He lost his home. He lost his friends. He lost his school. He lost everything.

Having no choice, he moved to Tokyo, to a small, new orphanage to accommodate victims of the disaster who didn't have any home or wanted to change their lives in the biggest city in Japan. In his mind, all he wanted to do was enter a normal high school, do a part-time job, make some money to help the orphanage, and maybe if he were lucky enough he could be admitted into a good university with a scholarship.

However, one challenge from the volleyball team and one half-Italian blonde boy turned everything upside down. Now, he was trapped inside the crazy team, being dragged into the mess.

Inter-High.

National Tournament.

Volleyball.

Those three words kept spinning around his life as he entered a crazy high school life. Can he strive in the place where he was unfamiliar with? Would he be a good volleyball player? And what does the future hold for him?

The Birth of A Volleyball Legend

<p>It was a week since the summer break was over, and the training had been intense. Even though the menu itself wasn't as difficult as his time in the Thunder, with all the Tsunemori players trying so hard in every single session, it forced him to do the same, which always left fatigue in the aftermath.</p>

<p>Just like today, Yuki had to drag his feet across the street after about one hour of a leg day in the physical training session. Usually, he would suffer together with Riku. However, the blonde boy took absence from the training, saying that there was a family matter back home. Yuki was sure that this was just one of his so many excuses to avoid physical training.</p>
