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>Despite how Bato always portrayed himself as a feral boy, he was far from it. He had never fallen so low to the point of giving up his mind to enhance the beast inside him and followed his animal instinct just for the sake of a momentary improvement in the middle of the game. No, if anything, he was proven to his opponents several times that he was closer to the genius like Yuki instead of those mindless beasts who only knew how to throw a brute spike.</p>

<p>Since he started playing this game, Bato has been blessed with exceptional body-to-eye coordination and observation skills that exceed any ordinary player's expectations. The boy knows how to utilize this ability to the optimum. Bato didn't just use his exceptional ability in the game; he also used it to help him train to be a better player.</p>

The New Genius in the Town, Sero Bato!
