Kataoka never knew that his own principal and dean of education could be so enthusiastic.

Even when he was a supervisor in his first year and led the team to Koshien, neither of them had ever been so enthusiastic.

But now, with smiles on their faces, they half-bowed and responded to Kataoka's requests.

Even if the two sides were not very happy before, these two had been in contact with other coaches in private. At this time, Kataoka had no way to blame them.

Since it is a competition, it must be the results that speak.

He doesn't have the ability to lead the team to Koshien, so why should people provide for him like an ancestor?

At that time, the chubby principal and the sharp-tongued teaching director were already very face-saving without throwing him face.

Or should I say, it is very face-saving for Takashima.

Now people are like this, but because he has the ability to lead the team.

Use strength to win the respect of others.

Kataoka doesn't hate this feeling, or rather, he is the kind of person in his bones.

His attitude, unlike his previous toughness, has softened a lot.

Victory can cover up a lot of things, including the contradictions between the superintendent and the school leadership. After the team reached Koshien and achieved a good record, these contradictions did not exist.

After all, whether it is the principal and the director of instruction, or the superintendent Kataoka, they are essentially for the good of the Seido High School baseball team. They hope that the team can make it to Koshien and that the name of the school can be spread across the country.

What are the top giants in the country?

That's what this reputation is for. If they can't make it to Koshien all the time, no matter how good their team's training facilities are, they take care of the players.

They also have no way to maintain their reputation as the country's top giants.

Since the seventies and eighties, the capital market has intervened. In the past, those wealthy families that moved the whole country can only become powerhouses now, but there are many people.

Only those teams that have gone through the test of capital, and have survived, have always performed well.

in order to become a real national top giant.

Like Osaka Kiryu, like Inagi Industry, like the city's three high schools......

Another example, like their Qingdao High School baseball team.

When I said this before, I was likely to be questioned by others. After all, whether a team that has not been able to break into Koshien for several years can still be regarded as the top giants in the country is a topic worth discussing.

But now, the topic does not exist.

They made it to Koshien and had a good record, which was enough to wash away all the doubts they had faced.

After that, at least two years later, even if the Seido High School baseball team fails to make it to Koshien, no one will talk about it again.

From this point of view, Kataoka and the players are definitely indispensable.

After the grand celebration was over, Superintendent Kataoka immediately ordered the players to have a ten-day holiday.

That's three days longer than the team's holiday in previous years.

After deducting the more than one week they attended Koshien, that's more than two weeks, almost three weeks.

The Qingdao High School baseball team has never given such a long vacation before.

However, it was not surprising to the players, after all, for the third-graders, they had spent too much time on baseball. In the past three years, they have spent too little time with their families.

They deserve to go home and be with their families.

In particular, nearly half of the players are not from Tokyo, and they need this period of vacation even more.

"Coming to school before the 23rd, we put together a new team a week in advance to prepare for the upcoming fall tournament."

The already mature team was disbanded in situ with the end of the summer tournament. The next step is to form a new team, select useful players from the second and third armies, and promote them to the first army.

It's also a lot of work.

While the players were on vacation, Superintendent Kataoka and Minister Ota had already begun to prepare for the new team.

Zhang Han doesn't care about these things.

No matter how the team is reorganized, you can't kick him and Miyuki, who have already been promoted to the first army, out of the team.

The other fifteen players are uncertain, but five players are already the main players in the army.

They are Tetsuya Yuuki in the second year, Jun Izashaki and Ryosuke Kominato.

and first-year students Yukikachi and Zhang Han.

In addition to these five people, there is also Koichiro Tanba. His hopes of becoming an ace are also very big.

It's just that except for the final match with Kiryu Osaka, his performance in other games is really not reassuring.

Not to mention anything else, Dong Qingguo has a big opinion of him, thinking that he will become the ace of the team. No matter how hard Yuuki and Zhang Han tried, it was impossible to lead the team to Koshien again.

In contrast, it was the first-grade kid who didn't look very remarkable, but the quality of the pitch was good.

After Zhang Han returned home, except for insisting on swinging the stick and foundation, he basically stayed at home for the rest of the time.

After his mother went to work, he and his sister grabbed the sovereignty of the TV remote control.

In the end, he was defeated by a landslide.

This man who is almost omnipotent in the Koshien arena has no way to deal with his sister.

Zhang Han suddenly found that his younger sister when he was a child was still quite cute, and he could bully him as much as he wanted. But as the two of them got older, Zhang Han was a little unable to show it.

Lan Yu grasped this point, and every time he could make Zhang Han restrain his hands and feet, he couldn't say anything about his suffering.

Although only some fragments can be seen, the news of Koshiyuan still reached Zhang Han's ears one after another.

The two strongest teams defeated their opponents in the semi-finals.

Xibang won 2:0, a small victory over the opponent.

Osaka Kiryu High School defeated its strong opponent in the semifinals with an overwhelming advantage of 6:1.

Previously, because of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team, he was scored 12 points by Qingdao in a game. There are many people who question the strength of this edition of the Cosmos team. I think they have a good offense, but they don't have a strong defense.

The result of the semi-finals slapped these people in the face.

You must know that Osaka Kiryu's opponent is a well-known attacking team, and their scoring ability is very strong.

But this is the kind of team, when it competed against Osaka Kiryu, it directly became a toothless tiger.

Their attack power, under the consumption of the three pitchers of Kiryu Osaka, finally won only one point.

This game is compared with the Qingdao game, and people suddenly realize that those guys on the Qingdao High School baseball team are simply not human!

They scored three home runs, a dozen hits, and scored 12 points.

The three pitchers of the Kiryu High School baseball team in Osaka were almost beaten into a sieve by them.

If it weren't for the physical exhaustion of their aces, the result of that game would likely have been diametrically opposed.

Thinking about it this way, the attack power of the Seido High School baseball team is simply terrifying!
