"Duel!?"

As soon as he heard that Kamidai was the last hitter in the second half of the third inning, Nishimura, who played on behalf of him, provoked his pitcher Kasuga as soon as he came on the court. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As a catcher, Anno immediately shook his head violently at the Kasugamo on the pitcher's mound, telling Kasugamo not to accept the challenge easily.

"Kasuga-kun, don't be fooled! The other party is a college student, and if you go head-to-head with him, you will suffer a lot! Anye hurriedly gave Kasuga Cloud a look.

However, at this time, Nishimura, who was standing in the strike zone, continued to point his bat at Kasuga Cloud defiantly: "What!? Boy, don't you dare!? Coward! ”

"Squeak~" Kasugamo didn't really want to pay attention to Nishimura's provocation to himself, because he also knew that his current ability was not enough to support himself and the college students to face each other 1 to 1.

Not to mention that his pitching skills are not enough, and even the index of physical fitness is not strong enough, how can he fight with other college students!?

However, I don't know why another voice appeared in Kasuga's heart at this moment, that is, he is actually eager for such a duel!

Is it my Thousand Illusion Ball that is amazing!? It's still Nishimura, who is a college student, who has a better fighting ability! …… Where the hell is the limit of my Thousand Illusion Ball!? ――This is the most direct thought in Kasuga's heart at this time about Nishimura's provocative duel.

So, he immediately looked at Anno and touched the brim of his hat with his hand.

This is a code that he and the catcher Anno have made beforehand, which means that he wants to ask for a pause to discuss countermeasures!

After Anno saw the code given by Kasuga, he immediately waved his hand to signal a timeout to the referee, and then quickly stepped forward to the pitcher's mound and asked Kasugayun with gloves covering the lower half of his face: "What the hell!?" Kasuga-kun, you should know that now is not the time to be vindictive! What we need more now is stable suppression, you know!? ”

"Senior Anno, I understand what you say, but I'm thinking...... Where is the limit of the Thousand Phantom Ball!? Aren't you more curious about this, Mr. Anno, than I am!? "Kasuga Cloud replied.

"This kind of thing ......" Yasuno was silent, because Kasugamo did say what he had in mind.

But he couldn't agree so easily, because it was the key to the victory or defeat of his side in the game, so Anno didn't dare to make this kind of attempt rashly, but he immediately thought that there was someone who could make a decision for him, and that was the coach Kawano who was watching the game in the rest area at this time.

So Anno immediately looked at Coach Kawano, who was standing in the rest area watching the game, and secretly asked Coach Kawano in sign language from an angle that Shenda and others couldn't see: Coach, Kasuga-kun wants to respond to the opponent's challenge, can you approve it?!

"~~~" After coach Kawano saw Anno's sign language to him, he didn't reply to him immediately.

This made the other students of Aoba Dodai High School who had to watch from the side get up in a hurry, they all looked at the coach Kawano very entangled and expectant, on the one hand, they hoped that the coach could agree to the request of Yasuno and Kasugayun on the field, on the other hand, they were afraid that after the coach Kawano agreed to Anno and Kasuga's request, Kasugamo was blown up by the opponent in the next duel, so the damage to their side was super high!

What is especially worrying is that they don't dare to think about whether Kasugayun can hold up their stunt Thousand Illusion Ball and be beaten by someone.

“~~~”

After a long while, coach Kawano took a deep breath, put down his hands in front of his chest, and raised his right hand to touch the left side of his hat brim to the right side.

As soon as this action came out, everyone in the entire Aoba Dodai High School was shocked.

"The coach agreed! ~”

"The coach actually agreed! ~How is it possible~~"

"If Kasuga-kun is blown up, then the pitching advantage that we have built up so hard will be ......"

"Oh my God, what does the coach think!?"

"Yo Si! ~”

On the other side, after Yasuno and Kasuga, the pitchers on the court, saw the coach nodding and agreeing, the fighting spirit of the two was instantly ignited by the coach's nod and agreement.

At this time, Anye turned his head to look at Kasugayun and asked, "Kasuga-kun, the coach has agreed to your request, are you confident!?" ”

"Hay! ~I'll vote for it. Kasugayun roared in a low voice.

Anno hit Kasuga's chest with his glove, then put the baseball in his hand into Kasuga's glove, and said to Kasuga's final explanation seriously: "I'll leave it to you, boy, let's take a look!" ~~ The limit of a thousand illusions! ”

Kasugayun smiled faintly as Yasuno walked back to the back of home plate to prepare, and at this time he began to prepare for the challenge of hitting Nishimura, the ace pitcher of the three armies.

He first picked up the powder bag from behind the pitcher's mound, pounced a hand of powder, slapped it twice, and then gently blew into his mouth, and then stood back in front of the pitcher's plate, facing the home plate and looking at Nishimura standing on the hitting zone, and lowered his neck with his right hand.

At this time, Anno, who was squatting behind the home plate, suddenly said something to Nishimura, who was standing, "This is the meaning of the strikeout!" ”

"What!?" When Nishimura suddenly heard such a sentence, he immediately turned his head and looked at An Ye suspiciously.

Anno stimulated Nishimura with an inexplicable smile again, and scratched his neck with his fingers and said, "This just now~~ tickle action!" This is our Aoba Dodai High School's unique teaser sign language, which means the meaning of the presamsuring strikeout, are you ready?! ”

"Hateful boy~~" Nishimura became even more angry when he heard this: "Don't underestimate me, stinky boys!" ~”

The game officially kicked off after the physical education teacher Ma Tian as the referee gave an order!

In the first ball, Anno's ball path for Kasugayun is centered to the left, with changes, and he raises his arms with all his might!

Since you have agreed to someone's request for a duel, then in response, naturally only the middle ball path is the most preferred one!

Yasuno squatted behind home plate and hammered his gloves, nodding to Kasuga-yun and signaling, "Come on, Kasuga-kun, use your strongest strength now to throw the ball here!"

Nishimura in the strike zone was ready to strike, and all the reflexes in his body were tense at this time, and his eyes were unblinking as he watched the pitcher's throwing action on the hill.

And on the pitcher's mound not far away, Kasugamo has already stepped heavily on the pitcher's board and is ready to pitch!

I saw that the spring cloud first took a small half step back with his left foot, raised his hands above his head to the back of his head, and then raised his center of gravity to the side with his left foot; After a pause, he lifted his left foot and kicked straight forward before reaching home plate.

"It's coming! ~" Nishimura in the strike zone suddenly became nervous when he saw this.

As a baseball player who has been playing baseball for nearly 10 years, Nishimura knows that the pitcher's stretching action is a foreshadowing of his own actions as a hitter.

So, his left foot, which was standing in front of him, began to stand on tiptoe and grip the stick of the dead bat with both hands.

On the other side, Kasugamo on the pitcher's mound had already taken a big step and began to make the final thrower

"Whew! ~" With a bang, the baseball was thrown out by the spring clouds.

Looking at Kasuga's ball action, Nishimura was very experienced in judging that this was the standard action of throwing a speedball, but as a strike, he already knew that Kasuga's ball was not like an ordinary pitcher, and the fastball thrown was simply a straight trajectory.

Kasuga's ball can be seen clearly even in Nishimura's rest area under the court, and the baseball has a particularly obvious change of direction before entering the base.

So at the beginning, Nishimura watched the baseball being thrown by Kasuga, like the previous hitters of Kamida, first judged the general direction of the ball, and then waited for the ball to change direction before entering the base.

"Whew! ~~”

With a speed of 139 km/h, Kasuga's first shot flew quickly towards home plate with some drifting straight lines.

Near the base, the ball suddenly turned down to the outside corner due to the violent rotation and fell at an angle of about 45 degrees.

"Come on! ~~ Which is stronger and which is weak, today we are divided!! ”

Nishimura swung his bat at the baseball that flew into the strike zone and went out to ...... (To be continued.) )
