Chapter 999: Coronation as King!

PS: It's still two in one

The last number of outs.

It's like a little joke by the goddess of fate.

Just like the scene in the original book.

It was the turn of the second batter of Inagi Industrial High School - Katsuyuki Shirakawa.

It was also a position that was clinging to home plate.

Shigeru on the pitcher's mound seemed to be in a trance for a moment at this moment.

It was only a momentary pause.

Shigerun's eyes became bright again, looking at Katsuyuki Shirakawa with a gloomy expression on the strike zone, and his pupils could not suppress a faint discoloration.

This is both the dedication to the finals in this life.

also has feelings about the final in the original book in his previous life.

"I'm not going to let the game end here!!"

Bai He's determined expression seemed to be speaking like this.

In the bench at third base, as well as the Inami people in the stands, they all cheered for Shirakawa in the strike zone at this moment, as the last hope of Inami High School in this final, can Shirakawa continue to play smoothly!?

It has become something that everyone pays attention to and cares about.

"Sa! The final showdown of the finals, the second half of the ninth game, the second out, Daocheng Industrial High School ushered in the second batter of its own team, in the end, the king won the final directly and climbed to the top of West Tokyo!? Or will the hegemon continue to hope and turn defeat into victory!? ”

"The last number of outs, let's take it directly, Shigerun-kun."

"Baihe, please, you definitely have to go to the base."

"Your Highness the Tyrant, there is one more, take it down in the most perfect posture."

"Ace, don't give those guys any hope."

"Katsuyuki!! Attack, believe in yourself. ”

"I'll have to rely on you, Shirakawa-kun."

"Qingdao, Qingdao, Qingdao."

"Rice, rice, rice."

The atmosphere is the most tense and intense moment.

This is the moment when both teams are close to reaching the top or losing.

Even if it's Shigerun.

At this moment, when I stepped on the pitcher's mound, I could slightly feel my trembling right hand.

"Do you feel nervous at this moment?"

Shigerun, who bowed slightly, his right hand hidden behind him subconsciously clenched into a fist, which seemed to be more tense than the Koshien final stage four months ago, which made Shigerun's expression even more serious.

"Sure enough, only you are the most special, Naru! Only you, Daoshi High School, are the most anticipated and defeated team! Toll! ”

Maybe in this summer, Inami is not the strongest team, and perhaps, in this summer, this is not the toughest game that Shigeno has encountered (Jumo aside, in terms of the strength of the line, there are Kiryu and Saibon, and the pressure and difficulty they need to bear may be stronger than Inami). )

But!

This is definitely the most test of Shigerun's heart, and the most exciting game for Shigerino to experience what it means to be nervous!

Not for anything else!

Just because!

Narumiya!

The existence of His Royal Highness the Prince of Tokyo, who can be called the left shoulder of gold!

"Only! I don't want to lose to you again, Naru!! ”

"Boom!"

The momentum that erupted.

The dancing figure.

"This trump card, I want to get the account of last year here, I want to be here, and I want to defeat you completely! Prove the strength of this trump card!! ”

A firm step forward, a raised right arm.

Frozen in the sky.

Shigero's pupils flashed with a moment of brilliance.

"Whew!"

The aurora that came out of his hand.

Moments beating high in the sky.

"First goal!"

The first goal of the last out!

Within the eye-catching range of the audience.

The low-down light and shadow galloped towards home plate.

Sideways arc of travel.

On the strike zone, Bai He's pupils froze.

The metal bat raised high, the clamped arms, and the sinking center of gravity of the body mobilized all the strength of the body as much as possible.

Flying arc in the center position.

"Huh"

A metal bat that shook suddenly.

Whistling.

The small ball that was bouncing in the air quickly flew over the bat and scurried into the Miyuki ball sleeve behind him.

"Boom!!"

The strong and dull sound of falling.

It was like a sonic boom that burst in my ears.

"Good shot!"

and then made Bai He's expression even more gloomy and terrifying at the same time.

Many spectators in the stands couldn't help but smack their tongues.

It's the ninth inning!

Qingdao High School, the ace pitcher, can still throw such a strong, strong straight ball, how full of physical strength and energy is this!? How strong is the control, and how stable is the state!?

In the third base bench.

Narumiya sat in front of the bench, his hands folded on the bridge of his straight nose, his eyes that became extremely deep, and the green tendons that burst out near his temples all expressed the extremely uncalm emotions in the heart of this ace lord.

Don't end up here!!

"First goal! The ball that is high and straight, clinging to the good ball belt and pressing in, the hitter Shirakawa-kun's reaction is obviously half a beat slower, and the straight ball trajectory that can't keep up, it is still Shigerun-kun who maintains the highest level of pitching, and successfully gets the first good ball!! ”

Its majesty is impressive, and its momentum is extraordinary.

In Shigerun's eyes.

Baseball showdowns.

It doesn't matter if it's the first number of outs.

Or the last number of outs!

He will only follow his style to the end.

Attack with your own!

to crush all opponents.

"Second ball!"

"Inside corner low straight!"

Aim for the knee position, the deliberately depressed pivot angle.

At the moment when Miyuki had just set the ball cover.

On the pitcher's mound, Shigerun's soaring arm, the power condensed on his right arm, all transmitted to his fingertips, and he felt the concentrated nerves.

Suddenly, it shook and shook.

"Whew!"

A roaring aurora.

With that galloping and roaring momentum.

Straight towards home plate.

Close-fitting ball shadow.

Reflected in the pupils of the White River.

Cut in the light.

"Huh!"

Shirakawa's quick decision, the metal bat that swung decisively.

The sweep angle in the lower side position.

"Pong!!"

Fighting in close quarters, suddenly roaring.

The extreme screeching sound that burst open.

"Huh"

After squeezing wildly on the bat and shaking strongly, the shadow that suddenly flew out upside down flew towards third base with an extremely ferocious attitude.

"Bang!"

Slammed into the surface of the boundary line of the third base.

Before Masuko came to pass.

"Out of bounds!!"

The ball crossed the boundary line half a step ahead of schedule and escaped.

"Second goal! From the outside to the inside, the extremely sharp inside corner is low and straight, the rice is a two-stick hitter, Shirakawa-kun decisively pulls the pace, and it is very accurate to capture the trajectory of the incoming ball, but it is a little higher in the angle of strike, and the third base throw-in!! The number of balls is two good balls, zero bad balls, and the distance is excellent, and Seido High School is only one good ball difference!! ”

A host who is almost a broken voice.

The high-pitched and sharp words of commentary were transmitted throughout the Jingu Stadium.

Not only the spectators in the stands, but also the crowd watching the live broadcast of the game on the other side of the TV subconsciously widened their eyes, and they all became a little heavy breathing.

It's already nearly half of the body hanging on the edge of the cliff.

"Don't give up!!"

"White River!! You absolutely can!! ”

"Rice fruit, rice fruit, rice fruit!"

"Take one, Shirakawa!!"

On the third base side, the players in the bench of Inashi High School, as well as the people of the Inami support team in the stands, all became extremely crazy, and they couldn't be defeated here! Can't stop here, the hope of victory! Admission to Koshien!

You can't stop here!!

Red pupils, hideous faces.

In the strike zone, Bai He's hands clenching the metal bat, the bruised tendons, and the bloodthirsty look at the corners of his mouth!

The crazy color that came out of the depths of his eyes!

That Ming Huanghuang once again clinged to the position of the home plate, and he also stood very deliberately leaning inward!

Don't say Shigeno and Miyuki.

Even the chief referee behind him couldn't help frowning.

Obviously, even if you take a ball, there is a high probability that you will not be judged on the position of the touch ball (Shirakawa's body has already covered a considerable part of the good ball belt. )

This kind of determination or enlightenment to push oneself into a desperate situation and to push the opponent to the precipice.

Come on! Come on! Come on!

I'm definitely going to go up!!

It was like it was ringing in everyone's ears!

That comes from the resolute fighting spirit in Shirakawa's heart!!

"What an admirable stupid choice!!"

In Shigero's eyes, Shirakawa's extremely crazy face and posture, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the cold smile revealed.

A sarcastic look on his face.

"Ashin!?"

"Ah, since he has such an awareness! How can you not be accompanied! ”

Comparison of the sight of the casting.

A look of serenity appeared in Shigero's pupils.

The pupils of Miyuki, who was squatting at home base, shrank slightly, however, it was a choice that didn't need to be thought about at all, and Miyuki focused on his head.

The decisive position of the ball cover.

Now that the aces have made a decision!

So! Come on!

Use this ball to deal with them! Take our victory!

Ashin!

"Ahh I get it! Ichiya!! ”

The best work, the highest technology!

It is necessary to show the most outstanding posture as an ace pitcher.

This is not a professional course.

This is a stadium that does not smell of copper!

Here it is!

The teenagers gambled on their self-esteem! For the highest glory that he is most persistent.

A battlefield to chase your deepest dreams!

No regrets!

Fight it out with all your might!!

"Third goal!"

"Boom!"

The footsteps raised high, the steps that suddenly moved forward.

A sudden roar.

Dusty and majestic.

The dancing figure.

Awe-inspiring countenance.

At the moment when everyone's eyes are met.

"Whew!"

In a flash.

Shigerun's arms flailing forward.

That flash of light.

Instantly beats out on your fingertips.

The next moment.

The sound of breaking the air is rising!

Sharp brilliance, flying out.

"It's coming! Inside Corner!! ”

The light and shadow that jumped in the pupils, the trajectory of the ball that was captured.

Strike zone.

Bai He's crazy look.

Almost nothing to think about, it's the figure that leans forward.

"For victory!"

"I will do whatever it takes!!"

Clash of light!

The grandeur of the face, the scarlet color in the pupils.

In the moment of reflecting each other.

"That's why you said it, your choice is extremely stupid, Shirakawa!"

It was obviously a whisper in the distance, but it seemed to be able to penetrate the space at this moment, and it exploded in Bai He's ears.

It's like a moment of stagnation in time and space.

Momentary brilliance.

The vibrating light and shadow!

Mori Leng's striker.

At the moment when Shirakawa's pupils suddenly expanded.

"Boom!"

Exploding cyclones.

Suddenly bent and refracted balls!

"No !!!"

It was a heart-rending scream.

It's so close, but it's like it's far away.

Unreachable locations.

A one-tenths of a second encounter.

The madness that retreated quickly, the expression that quickly turned pale.

"Boom!!"

The Leaping Ball.

Securely incorporated ball covers.

At the moment when the clear sound fell.

"Good ball, hitter out!!"

"The end of the game !!"

The choice between heaven and hell is only a momentary certainty.

At that time, the impassioned words of the presiding judge resounded throughout the world.

"Oh oh oh

The sound of vibrations erupting from this magnificent Meiji Jingu Stadium is far greater than at any other time!!

"Out!! In the end, the ace of Qingdao, Shigerun-kun, chose a longitudinal slide, the most wonderful control, the sharpest arc, the height of the inside corner of the starting hand, the perfect refraction of the outside corner point, the beater who was completely deceived, Shirakawa-kun, couldn't touch this ball at all, excellent pitching performance, His Royal Highness the Tokyo Tyrant - Shigerno Shin, the second batter of Inami, Shirakawa-kun three balls and three strikeouts, and successfully got the third number of outs!! Ended the game! Seido High School is a shame before the snow!! In the summer, he climbed to the top of Nishitokyo and was crowned king!! ”

There is no need for suppressed emotions anymore.

There is no longer a need for restrained action.

And almost at the same moment.

All the sons on the side of Qingdao High School jumped up excitedly at this moment and rushed to the pitcher's hill.

The Shigerano Shin who was huddled together.

Raise your right hand high.

Clenched fists.

The expression of joy and excitement.

"Victory!!"

"Hahaha! Koshien!! Here we go again!! ”

"Qingdao, Qingdao, Qingdao."

"Your Highness the Tyrant!!"

"The King's !!"

The Qingdao people who shouted loudly and uncontrollably.

In front of the bench, it was also like a relieved Kataoka supervisor and Ochiai Hiromitsu.

Ace to a clean sheet.

The king who finally won the victory.

A fierce battle of nine rounds!

Qingdao High School has finally won the victory of its dreams!

At this moment, even the most calm philosophical team no longer hides the excitement and joy in their hearts.

The last summer.

To be able to be ashamed, to be able to enter that holy place again!

What could be more exciting!?

That's in the opposite direction.

Everyone in Daoshi closed their eyes in despair.

That irrepressible emotion was also vented to the end like a dam collapsing at this moment.

Sluggish, indifferent, hopeless.

All the negative emotions instantly surged into the hearts of these rice players, as well as the supporters, and Bai He knelt directly on the strike zone, crying bitterly.

It is the clearest expression of the moment when the teenagers lose their dreams and chase their dreams.

"It's over... My summer... ”

Cheng Gong Ming, who was on the bench, seemed to have lost all his strength, and the figure who collapsed on the bench behind him muttered to himself.

The blurred vision in front of him, the choked words.

Raised high, as if to grasp something, but completely fell into the air with the left hand.

It represents the helplessness and grief of His Royal Highness the Prince of Tokyo at this moment.

There is no ** to play, and there is no dream that cannot be touched.

A victory that can't wait

Inami's third-year contestants, including Masako Harada, were all standing in place at this moment, reluctant to move for a long time.

The extremely painful look on his face, and the slowly closed eyes, as if he wanted to escape from the facts in front of him.

However.

The moment you open your eyes.

It's still the scene where the opponents hug and cheer.

Or is it the most suffocating and uncomfortable pain.

The dream was shattered.

Tears broke off.

Summer for this group of teenagers.

It's over.

And another group of teenagers in the summer!

They have just started their journey!!
