Chapter 18: Back Numbers! Number 20! (3rd Update)
Izawaki Jun and Tetsu team both have to rely on some striking skills to unload part of the ball, in order to be able to bombard Shigerino's straight ball, not to say that they don't unload the force, the two seniors can't stop Shigerino's small ball, but in that case, the difficulty is higher, and it consumes more physical strength, and the burden on the arm will be greater, unlike the hitters like Dongqingguo and Masuko Toru, who themselves belong to the hitter who belongs to the Ten Societies of One Force, compared to skills, it is easier to solve things directly with strength.
Rao is so, Shigerino Shin's ball power is also a little beyond the expectations of Dong Qingguo and others, they have heard of Shigerno Shin's ball power on the straight ball before, ordinary hitters can't suppress it, today after the actual fight, they understand that the rumors are not exaggerated at all.
Just with Shigerano's ball power.
It is enough to suppress most of the hitters, so that the hitters cannot find the right angle to knock out the hit, unable to resist or even suppress the swing of the ball, even if the timing is accurate to intercept the ball, it is absolutely impossible to knock out the hit.
Either the soft rolling earth is blocked out.
Either that's a slow high fly ball and you're caught and killed.
Besides.
There will be no other results.
"Huh"
"Boom!!"
"Well, I'm in good shape, let's take a break."
At home plate, Chris once again firmly caught the straight ball thrown by Shigerino Shin, estimated the number of balls just now, and it reached about fifty balls, then stood up and shouted to Shigerino Shin, who was already sweating profusely on the pitcher's mound.
"Yes, Chris-senpai."
Clear sound, steady catch, just the right position, that will never have the slightest deviation of the ball cover, Chris seniors as a catcher at home base, is able to bring such a great sense of stability to the pitcher, not enough, not enough at all, for the current Shigerno Shin, he still wants to continue to throw.
Want to pitch better.
Throw yourself into the ball sleeves of Chris's predecessors.
Even if it's an immediate response.
Shigerano's words also revealed such emotions.
"Hehe, don't worry, slow down the tempo, pitcher, you can't just throw the ball."
It seems that he can see through Shigeruno's inner thoughts.
Senior Chris smiled slightly, came to Shigerino's side, patted Shigerino's shoulder gently, and said softly.
"Well, I understand, Chris-senpai."
Shigerino Shin's face showed a look of arrogance, and he replied.
"Slowly, at your own pace, you will definitely be able to become the main force of the team."
The faint smile, the eyes with the look of encouragement, let Shigerino Shin have endless courage and confidence in the depths of his heart, such a senior, such a catcher, if it is said, Shigerino Shin's sense of Miyuki is as trusting as a partner.
For Chris's predecessors, it is a strong sense of dependence.
Whether it is the description of Chris's predecessors in the original book, or in this life, Shigerno Shin's own personal contact with Chris's predecessors, this is a consistent predecessor, a highly respectable senior, and Shigerino Shin also really realized at this moment why in the original book, Miyuki, a guy who is sometimes a little hanging, has maintained the highest respect for Chris's predecessors from beginning to end.
Because, Chris's predecessor is such an admirable and trustworthy existence.
"Uh-huh!!"
Shigerino Shin looked at the senior Chris in front of him, nodded heavily and replied, and such a Shigerno Shin also made Chris senior can't help but recall the appearance of Chris senior last year when he first joined the ministry, which made the look in the depths of Chris's senior's eyes soften more and more.
Shigeno Shinto could feel the faint warmth in it.
It's just that at the moment when Shigeno didn't notice, a faint pain passed through the depths of Chris's senior's pupils at the same time.
It seems to be normal, and it seems to be a twitch of the left arm inadvertently.
But it is a little haze for this moment.
Saturday is the official start of this year's Tokyo Spring Tournament.
It was also on the eve of the start of the spring competition.
At the end of the morning workout on Friday.
Shigerino Shin took over the back number symbolizing the First Army from the hands of Superintendent Kataoka, and it was also his first back number at Seido High School, No. 20.
Of course, this is just a substitute back number.
Even by the standards of the national competition, it is impossible to enter the back number of the bench, but for Shigerano Shin, it is a very realistic back number.
Because that represents.
He was recognized by Superintendent Kataoka.
Whether it's the current strength or an expectation of future potential.
Shigeroshi is currently the well-deserved first in the first year of Qingdao High School, as the only first-year student who has received the back number, at such a moment.
In the queue, not to mention the first-year students, the second- and third-year seniors who did not join the first army looked at Shigerno Shin with a look of envy in their eyes.
High school is just two and a half years.
It was also their only goal, and Shigerno Shin did it in just half a month.
It's no wonder that these seniors look at Shigerno Shinho with extreme envy.
"It's not like the summer competition, and it's not as good as the autumn competition, the spring competition is more of an ordinary event, but even so, this is also an official competition, I don't want to see any low-level mistakes on the court, every game must do your best, people who can't do it, are not qualified to stand on the court, understand!?"
At the front of the queue, Superintendent Kataoka looked at the army in front of him and said in a cold voice.
The words were full of warnings, so that everyone's hearts were awe-inspiring, and they responded in a deep voice.
"Yes!!"
"So, Higashi, let's do it once, as is customary."
Superintendent Kataoka bowed slightly, then looked at Dong Qingguo, who was in the center of the queue, and said softly.
"Yes, overseer !!"
Is it the usual one?
In Kataoka, the words of the superintendent have just fallen.
Shigerino Shin in the team was eye-catching, and said that the convention of Seido High School is that, right?
"Oooo It's a circle!! ”
In the very envious expressions of the other members of the surrounding troops, all the people in the first army, including Shigerino Shin, twenty people bowed slightly and formed a circle, while the seniors of the Eastern Qing Kingdom stood in the center of the circle with a solemn expression.
He clenched his right hand into a fist and lightly hammered his chest.
The other nineteen people also looked solemn and touched their chests with their hands, and their eyes were level with their eyes.
"Who are we!?"
"King Qingdao!!"
"Who sweats the most!?"
"Qingdao!!"
"Who shed the most tears!?"
"Qingdao!!"
"Are you ready for battle!?"
"Oh oh oh oh!!"
"With the honor of our school in mind, our only goal is to dominate the country, and we will !!"
"Oh oh oh oh oh !!"
A cry from the bottom of my heart, this is a pride that comes from the bones.
Tokyo.
Seido High School.
Target – Hanshin Koshien Stadium.
The future king of the court is about to set foot on his first battlefield!!
