Passing light and shadow.

The flickering arc.

Swift and bright, the unstoppable arc trajectory, the moment when it flashed through the sky, the trajectory that fell down again.

"Bang"

The ball that slammed into the wall of the outfield.

With a dull thud, it bounced back above the surface of the field.

An extremely powerful blow.

After the home run, it was still a powerful attack.

Nobu Shigeno managed to capture the trajectory of the winning slide that Manaka was about to throw, and perfectly pulled the arc that went out.

"Dada"

"Oooo

In the cheers of the supporters of Qingdao High School, with a standard sliding base posture, he successfully stepped on the third base bag.

"Well done, Shigerun-kun."

"Ace, you're so handsome."

"Qingdao, Qingdao, Qingdao."

"Hahaha, I knew you could, Shigerun-kun."

"Lord Tyrant!! It's really a double caster. ”

The enthusiastic cheers that erupted resounded throughout the Jingu Stadium, and the continuous strong attacks of the Qingdao High School home run beaters made their own stands thunderous, and at the same time, the neutral spectators in the stands had to marvel at the strength of the Qingdao line.

Can't stop this kid with all your might!?

Pitcher mound above.

The corners of Zhenzhong's mouth irrepressibly revealed a touch of bitterness.

A dream of your own!

Own volume!

Your own path!

Is it just...

"Really a boy!!"

At the moment when the heart of the truth is gradually sinking into the abyss, the words that suddenly sound, the words that are extremely familiar and kind.

Makai has to subconsciously look back.

On the third base, Superintendent Tahara, who was standing in front of the bench, looked at him with a smile on his face, his raised right hand, his outstretched thumb, and his head seemingly gently but solemnly.

At this moment.

It seems that it has brought endless courage to Manaka!!

"You can't throw in the towel! Can't fall down! We haven't lost the game yet!! ”

This is.

At this moment, it supports the only thought of Shinaka.

It can still be called a straight figure, which makes Shigerun, who has just stepped on the third base, frown, revealing a grim look.

"It's all come to this point, don't you give up!?"

"Six, third baseman, Masuko-kun."

On the first base side, in the bench of Seido High School.

Superintendent Kataoka's brows also frowned slightly at this moment, and he gently waved his arms, and then pinched the brim of his hat.

"Hmm!"

Masuko's seniors in the strike zone, and Shigeno on the third base pack nodded in understanding.

Since the opponent did not fall!

Then go on the offensive!!

“playball！！”

The incomparably strong blue road line.

Extremely tenacious true.

And the three-high garrison that is still rock-solid.

"Whoosh"

"Huh"

"Pong"

"Bang"

"Huh"

"Smack"

"Out."

"Safe base!"

"Huh"

"Huh"

"Pong"

It's like dancing on the tip of a knife.

This is the first half of the eighth inning.

While Qingdao High School was using all its resources to continue to attack, the third high school of the city university also used many means to block some of the attacks of Qingdao High School.

This is a game where neither of you will regress easily!

It is also the most intense game in this game!!

"Smack"

"Out!"

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange!!"

In the end, Manaka still relied on his perseverance to defend the follow-up defense, although he was knocked out by Masuko Toru with an outfield sacrifice high-flying ball, allowing Shigeno to run back to home plate and cut a point again, but he also successfully stopped the attack of the follow-up hitters of Seido High School.

Get rid of Miyuki and select four bad bases.

The follow-up Menda seniors, as well as Hakushu, were all given strikeouts and catch-up outs.

The three high schools of the city university also barely cut off the attack of this bureau.

But!

The "3" shown on the scoreboard

There is also the "seven to two" that appears in the total score

Five-point difference.

At this moment, it is so dazzling in the eyes of the people of the third high school of the city university, so uncomfortable and desperate.

At this juncture when there are only two rounds left.

"Wow, I was actually scored three points by Qingdao in this game."

"Zhenzhong has done his best, but the Qingdao line is really too strong."

"The home run of the four, oh my God, I still feel my scalp tingle."

"Three, four, or five bats are knocked out in a row, who can withstand this, thanks to the fact that it did not collapse, and it was able to hold on and suppress the follow-up hitters."

"The five-point difference is a point difference that is difficult to recover from, and it is still in such a good state of Shigerun-kun, not to mention, Qingdao still has the attack of the ninth inning, look at that situation, it is the turn of the home run, and if one or two are knocked out, then it will really be game over."

"The ninth inning is another thing, now it's the attack in the second half of the inning, which is a chance for a three-inning home run! Whether you can get it back or not, it's going to be this half of the game! ”

"That's right!"

The attention of the reporters of the media magazines, and the gossip of many viewers.

In this final, there are only three and a half rounds of confrontation!

It also brought the atmosphere of the game to a climax.

On the third base side, in the third high bench seat of the city university.

"Well, isn't that all of them still very good? The game is not over yet, five points, and it is definitely not a score that cannot be recovered, our trump card is already fighting with all his might, what should be done, you should know better than ever!? ”

The straight figure, that solemn expression.

Superintendent Tahara clasped his hands in front of his chest, stared at Ohmae, Miyagawa, Shimazu and others in front of him with blazing eyes, and said in a calm tone.

"Yes, Overseer!!"

Takahiro Ohmae and the others immediately replied loudly.

Especially Takahiro Ohmae, when he saw the tired figure of Manaka leaning on the back chair, his hands clenched into fists even harder.

Own trump card!

It's already physically and mentally exhausted!

As a quadruple stick!

As the captain!

It's time for me to score!!

"So! Let's go! ”

"Oooo

On the first base, in the bench of Seido High School.

"The other party did not give up, the attack in this round will definitely be more rapid than before, but, in other words, as long as we can successfully suppress the home run hitter in this last round, the victory will be able to ensure that we are in our hands, Shigerun, Miyuki, the point difference is enough, if necessary, give up a point, it is an acceptable thing, you don't need to be too rigid about some details, let go of your hands and feet to attack."

Superintendent Kataoka stretched out a finger and said with a calm expression.

"Yes, Overseer."

Miyuki and Shigeno glanced at each other, both nodded solemnly with the same expressions, and immediately answered loudly.

In any case, it is also the pride and persistence of having a famous family.

This tenacity and determination.

It's something that no other team can have.

"It's just that I'm going to completely crush your stubbornness."

The footsteps that came out, the slightly raised brim of Shigerino's hat, the figure that paced out, looked at the moment in the direction of the three highs.

Shigero's pupils flickered with an extremely sharp cold light.
