Hank silently thought this to himself, but he did not show it on his face.
After all, in his mind, Aoba Johsai's overall strength was indeed inferior to Itachiyama Institute's. But in reality, every player on Aoba Johsai had the best chemistry with him.
Every one of them could coordinate with Hank at the highest level.
At first, the reason was the system's assistance. But as time continued to pass, that ability slowly transformed into a true symbol of strength.
After all, he could complete the tightest coordination with every player on Aoba Johsai's roster.
That point alone was enough to show tremendous potential.
"Before, I could only coordinate perfectly with Toru Oikawa and Iwaizumi. But as time has passed, everyone on Aoba Johsai can now coordinate with me at the highest level."
"I already have a very good way to use this for offense."
Hank had gradually gained a kind of absolute grasp over Aoba Johsai.
This control was not like a puppeteer manipulating dolls.
It was more like an enhancement framework. In other words, every current member of Aoba Johsai functioned as a way to strengthen a different part of his own ability.
That way, there would be no true weak points.
As long as all the members of Aoba Johsai coordinated with him, it would be enough.
In that case, Aoba Johsai's flaws could be resolved through him.
As for Itachiyama Institute's advantages, Hank also had a way to deal with them.
He would use his own strength to crush them completely.
So-called technique was nothing more than a trick the weak came up with to make up for their shortcomings.
But for Hank, who possessed ultimate physical talent, there was no need to spend that much time on it.
"He's probably stunned. He didn't expect us to be able to coordinate between the front and back rows."
"But this is only the beginning for our team."
Seeing Hank deep in thought, Kiyoomi Sakusa's lips curved slightly upward.
This was exactly the result he wanted.
By using his own team's advantage and his own absolute talent, he would completely dismantle the attack Aoba Johsai had built around Hank.
In doing so, he could thoroughly solve the source of the opponent's strength.
Just being able to deal with Hank alone was enough to cause Aoba Johsai's overall strength to drop by a huge margin.
Bang!
A crisp sound of impact rang out.
Standing on Itachiyama Institute's service line, Kiyoomi Sakusa immediately began looking forward to what came next.
This was the test phase of dismantling Aoba Johsai step by step.
For them, what came next was not actually that difficult.
They only had to withstand Hank's pressure, then find every weakness in Aoba Johsai and crush each one.
That would be enough.
However, just as he was thinking this, Hank in the front row and Kyotani in the back row suddenly began running across the entire court.
After that, the two of them moved as if they were no longer separate people, continuously using their routes to confuse Itachiyama Institute's blockers.
They had no idea who this ball was going to be left to for the spike.
And in that moment of hesitation, Toru Oikawa lightly jumped, hooked the volleyball backward, and tipped it into Itachiyama Institute's three-meter line.
He directly scored the point.
