"The next ball, a low straight ball in the outside corner, come and stretch the ball belt, so that the seniors can't catch the ball path."

Miyuki's finger moved lightly underneath and drew a code.

"Hmm"

Alignment of sight.

At the moment when the cipher matches it.

"Huh"

The brilliance that came down from the pitcher's mound.

After a blink of twink.

Quickly came to the edge of home plate.

"Huh"

With his own induction, Menda's seniors instinctively shook the metal bat in his hand, and the competition between the millimeters, the ball shadow appeared, and the space was beating.

Extremely clever to avoid the incoming bat.

"Knock"

The precision is incomparably submerged into the ball set of Miyuki behind him.

Accompanied by a clear sound.

"Good shot!!"

Superintendent Kataoka, who was standing behind home plate, immediately raised his right hand and shouted.

Inner corner to outer corner.

With meticulous diagonal pulling, flawless matching, the pitcher can also throw perfectly into the position required by the catcher.

Sharp striker.

The look on the face of the senior Menda in the strike zone became more and more solemn.

Shigerino Shin, this junior is a completely different kind of freshman, and this is something that these seniors have been aware of since he was chartered by Kataoka to join the First Army before the spring tournament.

But, today, in an actual face-to-face duel.

They just realized.

The real scary thing about this junior is not his strength and potential as a pitcher, there is no need to question it, his strength is really the potential of an ace, and the only point to be clarified here is that this junior, the kind of arrogance that can be shown from the depths of the bone marrow.

There is no humility as a newcomer at all, and there should be humility as a junior.

He is not afraid of any opponent and never humble.

A natural posture to stand on top of the pitcher's mound.

Shortcoming?

Perhaps.

In a sense, as a high school student, as a teenager in his youth, as a player who positions himself as the ace of the team.

On the contrary, this should be regarded as a quality condition that should be possessed.

A true ace pitcher is always strong from the inside out.

Technical, psychological.

Both, the way is great.

Shigerino Shin in front of him.

It is to give Menda seniors such an impact.

Raised arms high.

The footsteps that followed.

It's so regular.

It's wonderful.

"Boom"

The swept air waves rippled out.

"Huh"

The ball light rushing from the fingertips, with a touch of sharp ball edge, deceived him.

"Huh"

"Boom!!"

"Good shot, hitter out!!"

The perfectly refracted arc, the undiminished power of the ball, the refraction curve from the inside out.

The finish is close to the perfect cut.

Kadoda perfectly air-swinged, strikeout!!

"Born a trump card。。。。。。

Almost at this moment, looking at Shigerno Shin's figure, Menda's predecessor couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.

"Two sticks, guerrilla, Kusunoki-kun."

"What an enviable junior...

Awe-inspiring yet intimidating.

It's just the slender figure on the pitcher's mound.

There was a complicated look of envy in the pupils of Kusunoki Fumiya's predecessors, mortals, for geniuses, a little person with great perseverance, will be firm in their goals, make unremitting efforts, to shorten the gap between themselves and geniuses, and even spend more time than geniuses to surpass geniuses (it is undeniable that as long as geniuses work for the same time as mortals, then, mortals will never be able to surpass geniuses.) But for most people, most of the time.

The so-called effort, the so-called struggle.

It's just to hide the yearning for geniuses in the depths of his heart.

They also aspire to be that kind of player, that kind of existence.

"The first ball, the palm ball in the outside corner."

Miyuki, who is familiar with Shigeruno's style, will never flinch in the ball matching.

A dignified frontal attack.

Use the boldest and most efficient way to get the best results.

This is Shigeruno's pitching style!!

"Huh"

Swing up the arms.

The delicate control of the ball, the release of the strength of the fingers, the angle of the swing.

The shadow of the galloping ball.

Shine over home plate.

"Huh"

A bat that suddenly swung up.

After the projectile passed.

The shadow of the ball was long overdue, and the swaying white ball, especially the arc that was close to home plate and suddenly falling, made Nanmu's predecessor slightly correct the timing of his swing.

Still unable to intercept the trajectory of the ball.

"Smack"

"Good shot!!"

"Ho, is the first ball to be a speedball? That catcher is very bold. ”

"No, no, no, Shigerun-kun's is not a speed ball, it's a palm ball, compared to a speed ball, the palm ball is a ball that emphasizes the arc of the fall and the change of the trajectory."

"Huh? Palm balls? ”

"Uh-huh"

"Speaking of which, the first ball is pitched this, the courage is really great, the ball power has been weakened to the extreme, and it is easiest to be bombarded with a long shot or even a home run.

"What a brilliant freshman...

It's been five years.

People are finally here at Seido High School.

I saw one, enough to have the potential to become an absolute trump card.

"Huh"

"Huh"

"Pong"

"Bang"

"Out of bounds!!"

The wideness of the path.

The difference in ball speed.

Precise ball control.

Bold character.

Shigerun's pitching doesn't look like a freshman at all.

Throw the ball with ease.

Shin Shigerno is firmly in control of this matchup on the court!!

"Whoosh"

The shadow of the bright shuttle, with an awe-inspiring aura, roared.

"Knock"

The gorgeous straight line does not give Nanmu seniors the slightest room for counterattack.

"Good shot, hitter out!!"

It was to easily suppress the predecessors of Kusunoki Fumiya.

"Three outs, offense and defense exchange!!"

Born ace Shigeno Shin.

The outstanding heroic posture not only amazes the surrounding audience.

It also made Shigerno Shin and his peers in the first-year bench show an extremely complicated look, especially Kawashima and Kawakami.

Looking at Shigerino Shin, who walked back side by side with Miyuki.

The corners of his mouth showed a hint of bitterness.

There is such a contemporary.

For them, it's like a mountain that's hard to overcome.

"Good ball, Shigerun."

Back to the bench.

Kuramochi said to Shigeno Shin with a smile.

"Hmm."

Shigeno Shin took off his hat and replied with the same chuckle.

"Ashin, the palm ball just now is still a little higher, and the center of gravity is slightly pressed down, otherwise, you may be caught by the seniors on the trajectory?"

Miyuki, who took off the catcher armor, said with a serious expression.

"I understand."

Shigeno nodded slightly.

"The garrison is over, and then it's our turn to fight back."

Slightly sideways head.

Shigerano Nobu looked at the senior team's bench and lowered his gaze, revealing a cold luster.

Said such a sentence that the first-year freshmen around him couldn't believe it.

"Only by attacking can you win the game!!"
