Chapter 7: Who Else? (2nd Update)
Some people are destined to have no way to endure loneliness.
For example, the fourth baseball team of Qingdao High School last year, the children of Dongqingguo.
Considering that he had played on his own, the painful memories that he had almost forgotten before might have to be revisited.
A month ago, Dong Qingguo's experience of fighting Zhang Han is still vivid.
The children of the Eastern Qing Kingdom don't want to think about it at all.
So much so that in such a pleasant thing as bullying his junior, he did not go to the front of the team, but chose to watch from the sidelines.
But this man, there is a limit to his endurance.
Just because he can endure a few minutes does not mean that he can endure half an hour......
The game was in full swing on the court, and he stood by dryly, only greedy.
The children of Dongqingguo couldn't stand it, so they directly took the initiative to ask Ying to fight on the field.
And what he said, so that others simply have no way to refuse.
"It was a terrible fight! Being bullied by a group of elementary school brothers into this virtue is a shame. I got it! ”
Actually, Xiuze is a little better over there.
Although Yuki and Izaki Jun have shown good striking power. But Xiuze's original task was to help these guys regain their form and self-confidence.
They are able to have their current performance, I dare not say 100%, but a large part of it is the result of Xiuzawa's release of water.
Tanaka's side is more embarrassed.
When he originally went on the court, he wanted to teach a few pitchers how to be human beings, so that they could know that high school baseball was not that simple.
But when it came time to actually face off, Tanaka was surprised to find that things didn't seem to be as simple as he thought.
First of all, Koichiro Tanba, who had just come on the field, gave him a big surprise.
This pitcher, who was originally very unqualified in the eyes of their group of players, has now let go of the ideological baggage of the past.
The state of the whole person is very positive.
The mentality is good, and the baseball thrown has visibly improved with the naked eye.
Not to mention anything else, just the kind of curveball with a high drop makes Tanaka feel that he can drink a pot of wine.
Tanaka, who entered the university, originally thought that his strength had improved now, and he played against his former friends of the Seido High School baseball team, how could he not take advantage?
He knows Tanba and Kawakami well.
As for the two first-year rookie pitchers, even if they have good potential, they are only first-year after all.
But when it came time to actually fight, Tanaka was surprised to find that all this was wishful thinking in his own head.
Tanba's high-drop curveball, Kawakami's corner change ball, and the strength shown by the two first-year freshmen.
Directly at the beginning of the fight, Tanaka couldn't eat and walked around.
He played with four people in succession, not a single clean one, and hit the ball neatly.
I didn't get a strikeout, but I barely touched a baseball.
The baseball that he touched out did not fly far, the speed was not fast, and it could be said to be weak and weak.
Such a ball, even if it falls on those ordinary teams, it is difficult to turn it into a hit.
Not to mention Seido High School.
Here, such a ball will only be out of the game, and there will be no other result.
"These 4 guys have their own characteristics. Principal Tian, who had not prepared any before, would definitely inevitably suffer. ”
The Qingdao friends who watched the game from the sidelines were very excited. It's not that they don't know that their pitchers are strong.
But in good conscience, none of the former friends of the Seido High School baseball team thought that Koichiro Tanba and the other three pitchers alone could force their previous captain to such an extent.
You must know their real trump card, Zhang Han has not made a move yet.
What does this mean?
This shows that the pitchers of the Qingdao High School baseball team, as long as they don't get nervous and don't have any problems, even if they use the way of wheel warfare, they also have strong combat effectiveness.
Playing against the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is definitely enough to make those guys unable to eat and walk around.
The friends were very satisfied.
On the other side, in the face of the pitching of the previous ace Hidezawa, the hitters also performed remarkably.
Although until now, they still don't know how much hidden strength the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team has? How many hole cards are hidden?
But the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, through this encounter, fully recognized themselves.
They have reason to believe that with so many reliable friends, even if the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team hides a lot of tricks, it will not change the final result of the game.
They're sure to win!
Last year, they beat two other giants to reach Koshien.
This year, the situation will be the same.
The friends are full of confidence, and the fighting spirit of the Qingdao High School baseball team is booming.
But those who really understand the mystery can actually see that these two seniors released water when they were practicing.
At least Senior Xiuze released the water.
When Principal Tian played in the second round, his performance also increased visibly.
But even if he hits more balls and hits more.
The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team can still feel his struggle.
When fighting against Tanba, the situation of the two people is at most five or five, and Tanaka can play half of it, and there is also half of the probability of being solved.
Even against Kawakami, he doesn't have a high probability of hitting all the balls.
Again, only a part of it can be played, at most a large part.
The most embarrassing thing was playing against those two first-year pitchers that he didn't pay much attention to.
The result can be described as embarrassing.
Not even half of the probability, at most it is 30%.
More than sixty percent, he was either killed or banned.
The most terrifying thing is that he was also thrown a strikeout shot by Gu Xiao.
Dong Qingguo said that he was embarrassed, although the language was a little heavier, but it could not be regarded as nonsense.
At this time, Kakuei Tanaka was indeed embarrassed. In the face of the two first-year newcomers, his performance was really unsatisfactory.
Fortunately, Kakuei Tanaka has a good mentality.
Although I wanted to see two first-year newcomers at first, I quickly adjusted my mentality. Don't treat the two opponents in front of you as first-year newcomers, just look at the baseball they throw.
It's still very interesting.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even if he had seen it in the newspaper before, Tanaka would have had a hard time believing that these two guys were both first-grade pitchers.
The baseball they throw, and the talent they both have, is nothing like what a first-year freshman should be.
"As long as they are used well, these two newcomers can definitely be used as surprise soldiers."
Dong Qingguo came on the field, and the retired captain Tanaka came to Zhang Han's side and said with a smile.
As a senior, I went on the field to accompany the juniors to practice, and in the end, it turned out to be such a result.
Tanaka's face is definitely not good-looking.
But compared to the fact that he couldn't get over his face, what made him feel even more happy was that there was a successor to the Qingdao High School baseball team.
Their generation, who led the Seido High School baseball team, returned to Koshien.
But after that, if you want to fulfill the dream of the Seido High School baseball team, you need the efforts of these players.
With two first-year pitchers like this, at least for a long time to come, the Seido High School baseball team won't have to worry about the successor.
"Our team will be very competitive for the next two years!"
This made Tanaka very happy.
Zhang Han smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"You're exalting the two of them too much."
The talents of Sawamura Eijun and Akira Tsukiya are naturally beyond doubt. But to say that with the strength of the two of them, they can win the game against the baseball team of Inagi Industrial High School.
I'm afraid it's not that easy......
"You've never seen the two of them pitch before, and it's no surprise that they're going to be so embarrassed when they're not at all aware of each other's strength. Those two guys, if they didn't do a good job of investigation in advance and weren't mentally prepared, it would be really difficult to deal with them when they suddenly faced them.
One hundred and fifty kilometers of fast straight balls!
A quirk ball that can't see the drop point~
In the case of not being mentally prepared, it is estimated that it is a little difficult for anyone to suddenly face such a ball.
Even Zhang Han didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to hit the ball out the first time he saw this kind of ball.
"But those guys in Daocheng Industry are different, they have seen it, they are mentally prepared, and they have even come up with a way to deal with it. What do you think ......?"
There is no need for Zhang Han to continue, Kakuei Tanaka has already understood.
"That's true."
There is another point, Zhang Han didn't say it, but Kakuei Tanaka had to think there.
That is this year's Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team, which not only gathered Yuki's star players this year, but also gathered Zhang Han's star players this year.
Now the 9 main players of the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School are, to put it bluntly, nine star players.
The power that can burst out of such a line through it makes people shudder just thinking about it.
"Then they ......"
"It depends on how the overseers are arranged, and we can't pin all our hopes on them anyway."
"East going up at this time?"
Captain Tanaka was a little uneasy.
If the Eastern Qing Kingdom broke out with an extraordinary strike force at this time, it would probably be devastating for these pitchers.
"Let them know and know!"
Chris had just finished the blow and happened to come over.
Escaping will not solve anything.
Since they are going to fight a battle of the century with the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School, they must let these friends know in advance who the opponent they are about to meet?
The strength of some of the beaters in there is not inferior to the seniors of the Eastern Qing Kingdom.
If you don't have such mental preparation, even time has sent them on the field, intending to make them wonder soldiers.
On the pitch, they may not be able to play a surprise effect.
Just as a few people were talking, a white baseball flew high.
"Ping!"
The ball that was knocked out flew high and landed out of bounds.
Fortunately, this ball fell out of bounds, if it fell into the boundary, Dong Qingguo, who had just come on the field to speak wildly, would be slapped in the face.
"There's a set, boy!"
When Tanaka fought with Tanba, Dong Qingguo had already discovered that this little guy was different from the weak appearance he originally imagined.
After unloading the burden of the trump card, he let go of the whole person, and the baseball he threw not only had changes but also had a strong tail energy.
In this way, even if the baseball is touched, it will not be swept away so easily.
"Senior!"
Koichiro Tanba's eyes flashed with high fighting spirit.
As a party concerned, he knows better than anyone how much these players in Dongqingguo underestimate him.
said that it was underestimated, and in the eyes of the players in Dongqingguo, they could hardly see the existence of Koichiro Tanba.
The clay man also has three points of fire, not to mention a pitcher like Koichiro Tanba, who has excellent talent.
He also wants to prove himself.
It's just that he used to have huge problems with both pitching and mentality.
This kind of problem is not only reflected in the official competition, but also when it comes to the duel with these seniors of Dongqingguo.
He is easy to get nervous, and when the whole person is nervous, the baseball thrown will lose its power.
But now, this weakness has been overcome by Koichiro Tanba.
Even if it is facing the fourth baton of the previous team, Dong Qingguo, who is now well-known in the professional team.
He can also throw the strongest ball in his hand without any scruples.
"Whoosh!"
Koichiro Tanba seemed to use all his strength, and the baseball in his hand looked as if it was going to be smashed on the head of Dongqingguo.
It doesn't matter if he is touched by the ball, as long as Senior Dong doesn't hit the center of the ball, he can solve him by himself......
Even if he is Dongqingguo, even if he was called a monster last year, even if he is already a well-known player in a professional team.
Nor will it ......
"Boom!"
Dong Qingguo, who was in the strike zone, opened his big mouth and showed a bloodthirsty smile.
His eyes, as if they were glowing, glowed blood-red.
He swung his arms with all his might, and the bat in his hand whistled out.
In the palace, who was catching the ball, his eyes widened all of a sudden, and his eyeballs were so hung that they couldn't be hung out.
He had never seen such a swing before, it was amazing!
It felt like the whole world was going to be thrown out.
"You're not far from it, boy!"
"Ping!"
The moment the baseball fell into the good ball belt, the bat hit the baseball solidly.
As Tanba expected, this kind of ball that fell at high speed, Dong Qingguo was not able to hit the center of the ball.
It's just that it's useless......
Although I didn't hit the center of the ball, the speed of the swing was amazing, and the power of the bat swing was incredible.
Even if it didn't hit the center of the ball, the baseball was still taken out by force, and it was carried by the bat for a distance of twenty or thirty centimeters.
Immediately after that, people saw.
The baseball that was taken out flew straight into the sky, over the net on the periphery of the court, and flew straight out.
The baseball flew out at such a fast speed, and it flew far away.
So much so that the players had no way to see where the baseball flew.
"Ben, home run!"
Friends who watched the game, someone was surprised.
The two first-year rookie beaters invariably looked at Dongqingguo in the strike zone.
The shock in their hearts is indescribable.
Kominato Harushi is not a power-type beater in itself, and for such a beater, he can only provoke two thumbs up to admire.
Jinguji, strictly speaking, is not a power-type fighter, he is an all-round development.
But now, Jinguji suddenly feels that in fact, the power-type fighters are also quite handsome.
As long as the power of the blow can be honed to the level of the senior of the Eastern Qing Kingdom, it is enough to turn decay into magic.
Even if you don't hit the center of the ball, as long as you touch the ball a little, you can take the ball out of the way.
"Don't think you've made a little progress and just lift your tail to the sky. As I said, you're still far from it. ”
Dong Qingguo had a hideous smile on his face.
Koichiro Tanba looked at the ball that was flying out in shock, and then looked at Dong Kiyokuni in disbelief.
is worthy of being a senior in the east, and he is worthy of being a monster who can get a place in the professional arena.
It's really horrible!
After entering the university, Junior Taka has made some progress, but Koichiro Tanba really can't see it.
On the contrary, in the process of fighting, Tanba felt that he was a little different than before.
Originally, in his eyes, Tanaka, who had almost no way to climb high, he could find a way to fight with it, or even solve it.
But the Eastern Qing Kingdom.
After leaving the Seido High School baseball team and joining a professional team.
His strength has really changed. When he was originally in Qingdao, he was already like a different person.
"This kind of blow shouldn't happen on the court in high school."
Xiuzawa, who was pitching, licked his lips when he saw it.
In his heart, there is an unwilling villain who hopes to fight with the Eastern Qing Kingdom head-on.
But Xiuze knew it very well in his heart.
Even if the two really fight, the one who loses in the end should be him.
And in the process, there are basically no big surprises......
As far as his own pitching is concerned, he really has to fight, and he can still compete with Jun Izaki, Ryosuke Kominato, and Masuko Toru among them.
In the case of Yuuki, there may be a little hanging.
In the process of practicing just now, he more or less let out water on other people, and he really didn't have Yuuki.
As a result, the guy hit 4 times and actually knocked the ball out three times.
Those three times, if there are no big accidents, will basically turn into hits.
That's kind of scary!
It's a little scary, but it's not impossible to fight.
But the Eastern Qing Kingdom.
Even if he only watched this guy swing the bat twice, Xiuze could clearly feel the gap between his strength and him.
"It's a monster who has entered a professional team and can have a place, and we guys are not at the same level at all."
Maybe it's this home run, and the shock is too strong.
Perhaps, in the course of the previous duel, Sawamura Rongchun and them have already consumed seventy-seven-eighty-eight.
In the next, in the duel between Dongqingguo and Kawakami, Akira Tsukiya, and Sawamura.
Dong Qingguo, who has a big belly, two teeth missing, and speaks leaky.
It has become a nightmare in the hearts of all the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team.
He hit the baseball again and again, and he won all the home runs from everyone.
Tanba, twice.
Kawakami, once.
Descending valley Xiao, once.
Eijun Sawamura, once.
"Haha, come again......"
Although the 4 pitchers on the pitcher line of the Qingdao High School baseball team were full of unconvincing, no one had the courage to take the initiative to stand up at this time.
It's horrible!
The Eastern Qing Kingdom, which is attacking the area, is like a legendary demon. That kind of aura like a demon god was firmly locked on them, making it difficult for them to move even a finger.
The pitching strength of a body, ten out of ten can play eight or ninety, which is already remarkable.
If the psychological quality is weak, when facing the Upper East Qingguo, I am afraid that even half of his strength will not be able to exert himself.
Such an opponent, how else can they fight?
"Who else? Just let the horses come. ”
Dongqingguo may be too proud, and he has no mouth for a while.
As soon as the words were spoken, he regretted it.
But if you say it, it's like spilling water, and you can't take it back if you regret it.
And as the fourth batter of the last session, he is still a professional player, so he really took back what he said, and he couldn't get over it.
Dong Qingguo could only grit his teeth and hold on.
Then he saw that Zhang Han stared at him in disbelief, and then pointed at himself with his finger.
That seems to be saying.
"Can I do it too?"
……
