Chapter 3: Who's the Strongest? (3rd Update)

Like the city university's junior high school, the Qingdao High School baseball team is also actively preparing for tomorrow's finals.

If there's one difference, it's probably the obsession with victory.

Inagi, who won the spring Koshien championship, and the city university Sangao, who reached the quarterfinals of the spring league, are not so thirsty for honor and fame.

Even if there is a live broadcast of TV Tokyo, it is still a chicken rib spring champion.

They who have just fought in Koshien don't look down on such a small honor compared to the Seido High School baseball team.

The opposite is true for Qingdao.

The two rivals in the same district are both showing their might in Koshien in spring.

It's just them, left alone in Tokyo, how can they feel good in their hearts?

If it is another team that plays the final against Seido, Superintendent Kataoka may also let the substitutes play.

But the competition against them was the third high school of the city university, who had just returned from the quarterfinals in Koshien.

How could Kataoka not matter?

Be sure to take it down!

If the city's top three come up with three points, they will get five points. If the senior high school of the city university gets five points, they get seven points......

If the supervisor of Tahara, the third high school of the city university, has a brain and makes a big deal with them.

The Seido High School baseball team is also with you to the end!

In this regard, Minister Ota and Coach Ochiai have expressed concern.

"Considering the upcoming Kanto tournament and the summer tournament in more than two months, there is a possibility that we will meet the three high schools of the city. At this time, it will not be good to show all the strength and hole cards? Moreover, there should be a lot of people watching this final......"

A strong school in Kanto, a rice city in the same district, a pharmacist.

It is likely that they are not just their opponents who are divulging information.

Modern baseball, even college baseball, has become more and more dependent on intelligence.

If the Seido High School baseball team leaks all their hole cards in advance, then whether it is the upcoming Kanto Conference or the summer tournament in two months, it will be in a very passive situation.

"I believe in our players! It doesn't matter if it's a Kanto tournament, I'm going to add strength from the players of the second army and use the Kanto tournament to hone my team. As for the Summer Championship in a little more than two months, I believe that by then, our players have already gone further. If they use the current information as a reference for the summer competition, they will only suffer! ”

The reason why Kataoka is so bold is that he believes that his disciples can reach new heights after running in and growing.

To be honest, although Zhang Han couldn't pitch for a long time, it made Kataoka Superintendent a little disappointed.

But in his heart, he is very satisfied with this team. The level of satisfaction even exceeded that of the previous one.

Although there were strong baton Dong Qingguo, ace Xiuze, and a group of powerful players in the last session.

But those players, the feeling that Kataoka is more or less out of time.

Really let him say that he can't say why?

But he always felt that the team was not strong enough and it was difficult to make it to the end.

In fact, Seido made it to Koshien last summer and had a good result.

But they really didn't make it to the end.

Compared to Osaka Kiryu and Saiho at that time. The gap between the last Qingdao High School baseball team and others is still obvious.

But this one is different.

Although the outside world complained that Yuuki was the product of a bad harvest year, Kataoka watched them grow up with his own eyes. With Yuki as the core, plus the backbone players of the third grade, plus Zhang Han and Yuyuki of the second grade.

This is the first time that Kataoka has mastered such a luxurious team.

He sincerely hopes that he can take these children to go further.

And he also felt that these children would live up to his expectations, and they would definitely be able to fly higher......

The current Kataoka, when talking about his players, has a light in his eyes.

If there's one exception, it's probably when it comes to pitchers.

The white bi is slightly flawed, and there is a fly in the ointment.

If Zhang Han's pitching is not restricted, then the current Qingdao lineup can be called perfect.

Just as a few people were discussing, a contestant from outside came in to report that someone from the TV station had come and wanted to interview the contestant.

It's all come to this point, and Kataoka certainly won't stop the players from being interviewed.

The contestants they were going to interview were Zhang Han and Yuuki.

When Xintian saw Zhang Han, a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.

Deceiving his idol will still make him feel uneasy about his conscience.

However, this trace of guilt was soon hidden in the depths of Xintian's eyes.

"You said Hoshida and Miyagawa are really looking forward to fighting me?"

For the news that Xintian gave him, Zhang Han was very grateful.

"Anyway, I haven't seen them since the last time we met, how are they now?"

Hearing that Hoshida and Miyagawa have become the core beaters of the city's three high schools, Zhang Han's face showed an unsurprising expression.

The swing of those two guys and their eyes are both monster-level. When they were in Matsukata, they also entered the first army very early and helped the team fight.

"I'm looking forward to playing against them..."

Xintian heard the answer he wanted from Zhang Han's mouth.

Then he turned the conversation back to Yuuki.

I compared Yuki to Ohmae, and by the way, Yuuki won four fewer home runs than Ohmae.

Although he didn't point out the words thoroughly, the meaning of the words seemed to be that Omae said that there are three mountains in West Tokyo, and he should be the first.

Yuuki can only compete with Inagi's Harada for second place.

Xintian's trick of sowing discord is really not clever.

Zhang Han was a little harsh when he heard it.

He originally thought that with the calmness and sophistication of his captain, he would be able to easily see through Nitta's tricks.

Unexpectedly, Yuuki felt as if he was furious after hearing this.

"See you on the field!"

He unceremoniously accepted the challenge.

After Xintian left, Zhang Han asked his captain suspiciously.

"Don't you see that the reporter just now is deliberately stirring up trouble? That method is probably not much better than that of elementary school students? ”

"I know!"

"You know what you say?"

"I've long wanted to have a good match with Damae."

Captain Yuki's words surprised Zhang Han very much.

It turned out that this matter was also a knot in Captain Yuuki's heart.

After all, when the three mountains first began to be ranked, Yuki was ranked third, and the first was Omae.

Tomorrow's final is likely to be the strongest battle for the three mountains of Nishitokyo.

Through this incident, Zhang Han also understood a truth.

Speaking skills are actually not that important, the key is whether you can speak to the other person's heart?

That night, TV Tokyo's official website topped two posts.

"Matsukata is a little club, two teams, three players have to tell the story."

"Who's the strongest fourth baton in Nishitokyo?"
