Haikyuu : The Legend

Chapter 6: Épisode 6 : Little meeting with Karasuno



In Karasuno's gymnasium, the players were training intensely for the match against Aoba Johsai. Bullets were flying in every direction, motivational shouts filled the air, and the team was focusing on their strengths.

Coach Ukai (watching from the sidelines, arms crossed): "Listen to me carefully. Aoba Johsai is not a team to be taken lightly. They have one of the best passers in the country, and their coordination is impeccable."

Hinata (in mid-jump, shouting excitedly): "So we'll just crush them with our quick attack, right, Kageyama?"

Kageyama (coldly): "Do you think that will be enough? You are really stupid, Hinata. If Oikawa is here, he will know how to counter us."

Hinata (landing awkwardly, crossing her arms): "Then let's make an attack even faster! No one will be able to follow her! Even Oikawa!"

Tsukishima (sarcastic, while adjusting his glasses): "Yeah, yeah. How about flying while you're at it?"

Coach Ukai (intervening, clapping his hands): "Forget the bickering! Kageyama, Hinata, you are our secret weapon. If this quick attack works against them, we will be able to destabilize them. But we will have to work on precision. One more times !"

Practices continued, focusing on improving the fast attack. Hinata and Kageyama tried variations, playing with the height and speed of the passes.

Hinata (out of breath, but determined): "We'll get there, Kageyama! I feel like we can go even faster!"

----

As Karasuno continued his training, the gym doors suddenly opened, attracting everyone's attention.

Oikawa (entering with a bright smile): "Yo, Kageyama! Have you grown up or are you still the same insufferable kid?"

Kageyama (surprised, but remaining serious): "What are you doing here, Oikawa?"

Oikawa (shrugging, laughing lightly): "I was passing by, so I thought I'd pay my dear " Kōhai " a visit."

Behind him, Ren followed calmly, observing the gymnasium curiously.

Hinata (approaching Ren, curious): "Hey, who are you? Are you also playing Aoba Johsai?"

Ren (with a mischievous smile): "You could say that. I'm Ren. And you, the little jumper, have a lot of enthusiasm."

Kageyama (interrupting, staring at Ren suspiciously): "Are you new to Aoba Johsai?"

Oikawa (with a proud smile): "Exactly. I present to you our new secret weapon. Ren is our new Ace. Powerful, versatile, and a real nightmare for blockers."

The Karasuno players exchanged intrigued looks.

Tsukishima (with a sarcastic tone): "Another Ace at Aoba Johsai? Are you trying to build a team of stars or something?"

Ren (smiling, looking Tsukishima straight in the eye): "Stars are proven on the field. And you, big guy, we'll see if you can block me."

Hinata (eyes shining): "Woah I'm going to become an Ace too, you look strong!"

Ren (calmly, with a confident smile): "You'll see him soon."

Oikawa: "well see you next time my dear" Kōhai "I hope you'll be ready"

Oikawa and Ren leaving the gym.

Tanaka: "He's arrogant for a newcomer."

Coach Ukai (approaching, with a serious tone): "Don't let yourself be impressed, but stay vigilant. Regarding the new guy, if Oikawa calls him an Ace, it's because he has potential. Get ready to do facing something new."

Kageyama (more intrigued than ever): "It's true, Oikawa never says that lightly, he must be strong"

----

After their visit, Oikawa and Ren walked leisurely towards their gymnasium.

Ren (teasing): "So, is this your disciple? He seems competent, but not very sociable."

Oikawa (laughing): "Kageyama, sociable? You're dreaming. But he has talent, I have to give him that. On the other hand, you impress me more and more."

Ren (skeptically, raising an eyebrow): "Oh, really? I thought you were hard to impress."

Oikawa (with a serious smile): "I am. But you have something I've been looking for for a long time. A striker who understands the game, who can adapt and who can make the most of my passes. You are exactly what I needed."

Ren (thoughtful, with a smirk): "And you're exactly the kind of Setter I can trust. Maybe we're a good team after all."

The two exchanged a knowing look, marking a rare moment of sincerity between them.

Oikawa (with a light tone, breaking the moment): "But don't rest on your laurels. If you start playing lazy, I'll make you pay."

Ren (laughing): "You're dreaming. If anyone slows down here, it'll be you."

----

Back at the gym, after a long training session, Ren turned to the team with an idea in mind.

Ren (with a big smile): "Okay, guys, who's hungry? I invite you all to eat. No debate, I'm the one who enjoys it."

Iwaizumi (crossing his arms, amused): "Are you sure you can pay for everyone? Have you seen how much Hanamaki eats?"

Hanamaki (smiling): "Hey, I have a healthy appetite. But Ren, if you invite me, I hope you've budgeted."

Oikawa (teasing): "Oh, it's rare to see our little Ren so generous. But I accept, obviously. I hope the menu will be up to par."

Ren (laughing): "Don't worry, I know a great place. Get ready for a memorable evening."

The evening ended in a joyful and relaxed atmosphere. Between Hanamaki's jokes, Oikawa's teasing. the episode showed a united team, full of energy and ready to take on any challenge.
