Chapter 228 : Mujinazaka Vs Karasuno (27)
Bonus Chapter
---------------
Seeing this, Ezota, who was positioned in front of Kiryū, immediately chased after the ball that had just flown out!
But just as he began to move, the ball had already soared past him!
Even if Naoharu Ezota tried to catch up, it was already too late!
Tweet!
Off the court, the referee's whistle sounded again!
Karasuno scores!
This was already the third point scored off Akira's serve!
Everyone on Mujinazaka once again turned their eyes to Akira across the net.
Why does it always feel like...
Whether this guy has stamina or not, he's completely incomprehensible??
What is going on with him?
Back in the first set, when he still had stamina, he scored eight points just from serving!
In the second set, even with his stamina faltering...
He still scored four points right at the beginning of his service rotation!
And now, even looking as if he's completely out of gas, he's still racked up three more points with his serve!
What's more, it seems like they might not be able to receive the next one either!!
At this moment, a heavy sense of helplessness burst in the hearts of everyone from Mujinazaka!
So... no matter if he has stamina or not, he's going to score anyway?
If they had known earlier, then all the effort and planning they'd put in... was it all for nothing?
Wouldn't it have been better to just go head-to-head with Karasuno from the start??
But the match had already come this far. Even if Mujinazaka wanted to abandon their original tactics now, it was too late!
After all, spilled water can't be recovered!!
They had already paid the price—there was no backing down now!
At this moment, Michiru Usuri's expression showed a hint of self-blame.
It was his suggestion yesterday—to exhaust Akira's stamina.
But now that the game had reached this point...
Usuri couldn't help but feel partially responsible for this situation!!
...
Tweet!
While they were still lost in thought, on the other side of the court, Akira walked back to the baseline to serve again!
After the referee's whistle, he sent out another float serve into Mujinazaka's court!
Thud!
This time, his serve shot toward the left side of the court!
Haruma Bishin had tried to anticipate it, but the ball still landed right in the gap in his defense!
Tweet!
The referee blew the whistle again!
Another point!!
...
"Whoa!"
In the audience, Atsumu Miya exclaimed!
"This is insane!!"
"Not only does he send those fluttering floaters, but he just keeps scoring off of them!!"
"Somehow his normal float serve feels even more terrifying than a jump float!"
"Those guys on Mujinazaka probably feel like crying right now!"
"Seriously!" someone beside him nodded.
"To be able to serve like this when you're running on fumes..."
"I've got to admit..."
Another spectator added emotionally,
"This is kind of unreal!"
"The main thing is his willpower!!"
"There are a lot of people who play good volleyball!"
"But someone with this level of determination, who keeps going even when they're clearly exhausted..."
"This is the first time I've seen something like that!"
...
Tweet!
While the audience chattered in awe, Akira cut two more points from Mujinazaka with his float serves!
However, on his seventh serve, it was finally picked up by Izusaka, followed by a back-row attack from Kiryū to score!
With that, Akira's service turn came to an end!
Still, the impact was massive!!
He had scored six points!
Even more than his jump serves managed in the second set!
Just two points short of his incredible eight in the first set!!
Could it be that exerting his stamina only makes him stronger?
The players from Mujinazaka couldn't help falling into deep self-doubt!!
Looking up at the scoreboard outside the court, they were truly starting to panic!
Karasuno 15:5 Mujinazaka!
Karasuno had reached match turning point!
If they lost this, there would be no second chances in the final!!
Now that Akira had rotated to the back row, everyone on Mujinazaka felt this was the best opportunity to turn the tide!
Forget the ones they couldn't target for now!
Because Akira's perseverance had completely shaken them.
No matter how much they pushed him, drained his energy, he still found ways to score!!
Right now, they had to focus on saving themselves!
After all, they were already trailing by ten points!!
Any point recovered now was critical—there could be no more mistakes!
Tweet!
The referee's whistle echoed again!
Subaru Hondo stepped up to the back line to serve for Mujinazaka!
And this time, his jump serve didn't go in Akira's direction!
Scoring was the priority!
Even if Akira looked exhausted now, who could say for sure that he wouldn't still have the energy to make a play??
Bang!
As the serve flew in, Yū Nishinoya shifted quickly and raised his arm to receive!
The serve struck his arm directly!!
"Sorry!"
The first touch was slightly off-angle, but Tobio Kageyama was already sprinting toward the ball's landing point!
Jump!
Set!
Just as he set the ball, Shōyō Hinata had already launched into the air from the opposite side!
Thwack!
Quick attack!
But this time, Hinata's run was tracked by Mujinazaka's blockers!
"Got a touch on it!!"
Although the ball wasn't blocked cleanly, it became a chance ball for Mujinazaka!!
"Usuri!!"
Kiryū called out loudly!!
After the rotation, he was now in the front row!
Usuri understood immediately—his ace wanted the set!!
He sent the ball directly to the right wing where Kiryū waited!
From the back row, Bishin also ran up to cover the net just in case!!
Across the net, Karasuno's front row rushed in front of Kiryū to prepare for the block!!
Bang!!
Kiryū's spike slammed against Hinata's arm above the net. The force behind it even made his airborne body stagger!!
But fortunately, the ball was received!!
"We got a touch!"
Another chance ball for Karasuno!
Akira calmly stepped to his left and effortlessly dug the ball!!
As the pass flew toward Kageyama, Hinata took off running again!!
And in the other front-row positions, Asahi Azumane and Ryūnosuke Tanaka were also charging forward!!
Whoosh!!
Kageyama launched the set instantly!
It went to Tanaka!
Across the net, the Mujinazaka blockers shifted their attention and closed in!
But since Nozomu Mami had been lured by Hinata's movement, only two blockers went up against Tanaka!
Facing this setup, Tanaka didn't hesitate—he swung with full force!!
Boom!
A straight shot!!
It cut past the block and crashed into the court on Mujinazaka's side!
Tweet!
The referee's whistle blew!!
Karasuno scores!!
