Chapter 61: Fierce Qualification Battle (Part 3)
No matter where he stands, Sawamura is like the center of the world, surrounded by a group of fans.
Looking at Sawamura Eijun, who seemed to be the center of the world, Miyuki said to Chris beside him with a smile.
"Don't you want to say something to your dear apprentice?"
Chris shook his head very firmly.
"We've all said it before. Next, I'll be waiting for him in the big leagues! ”
At this moment, Chris is surging with extraordinary fighting spirit.
In his eyes, Sawamura Eijun is no longer just his dearest apprentice, but also an extremely powerful opponent.
"The role changes so fast!"
Miyuki smiled bitterly.
Time passes, but it's just a blink of an eye.
In the blink of an eye, it has been two days later, and today is the day when Seido High School and the fifth place in the Kanto Conference compete for that half of the spring armor place.
The venue of the game was still arranged at Jingu Stadium.
For this matter, the organizers have also made some efforts.
They are inherently illegal and not very conventional. In order to justifiably let Qingdao High School get the last place, they specially invited a lot of media.
And under the witness of these media, it proves that they are impartial and selfless.
Seido High School was able to qualify for the Spring Koshien Selection Contest because of its own incomparable strength, not the result of their organizers' secret operations.
Of course.
One of the goals of the organizers is to use the power of the media to arouse the interest of the audience and get them to pay attention to the upcoming Koshien Tournament in the spring.
On this day, the Jingu stadium was full of gongs and drums, firecrackers, and crowds......
Well, it's just a lot of people.
The game was also very intense, and when it came to the fifth game, the scores of the two sides were still very tight.
The score is 3:2.
Leading the way is Qingdao High School.
Trailing behind was the fifth place in the previous Kanto convention, from Ticket Mountain High School in Chiba.
This so-called Ticket Mountain High School is a typical dark horse team. Originally, when I participated in the Kanto Conference, I was eliminated in the second round.
In the next 5 to 8 ranking battles, they won consecutive battles and won the final promotion spot.
If the opponent you meet is not Qingdao High School, Ticket Mountain is likely to double the storm.
But it's a pity that their opponent is Wang Zhiqingdao. And the style of Qingdao High School is precisely the most restrained dark horse team.
Seido High School is actively attacking and playing steadily!
Get used to dragging your opponent into your own rhythm of play and then use your own pace to win over your opponent.
A team with this style is very difficult to upset.
It's so robust!
Facing Qingdao High School, which looks like a hedgehog, the players of Ticket Mountain are also helpless.
You can only choose to go head-to-head with your opponent.
Before you know it, the game has completely entered the rhythm of Qingdao High School, although the score gap between the two sides is not large, but the rhythm is completely controlled by Qingdao High School.
Because it wasn't a civil war between Tokyo's giants, the attention of this game was obviously not as good as when Seido High School competed with the city university junior high school before.
In such a situation, with the capacity of Jingu Stadium, the stadium is naturally not full.
One after another, some viewers came.
This includes the teams that lost to Seido High School in the Tokyo Tournament.
Mushroom-headed Hiroshi Wakabayashi and Hasuga, who is inseparable from him, are two of them.
By the time they arrived, the game had reached the fifth inning.
Kasuga first glanced at the score gap between the two sides in surprise, and said in a surprised tone.
"I didn't expect these guys from Ticket Mountain to be quite capable!"
The opponent is King Qingdao High School, and the game reached the fifth game, and the score of the two sides was still very bitten, only 3:2.
In such a situation, Kasuga thinks that Ticket Mountain is indeed very capable.
Comparing hearts to hearts and changing them to the position of Ticket Mountain High School, I am afraid it will be difficult to fight with Qingdao High School to this extent.
Qingdao!
Only when you have actually played against this team will you understand how terrible this team is?
The horror of Qingdao High School is beyond the imagination of bystanders and ordinary people.
For this, Kasuga has a deep understanding.
Wakabayashi, the mushroom head, snorted coldly.
"What can I do, Qingdao High School didn't go all out!"
Kasuga first glanced at Wakabayashi for some reason, and then set his eyes on the rest area of Seido High School.
At this time, Qingdao High School was on guard, and those who stayed in the rest area now were naturally not the starters in this game.
Wow!
At a glance, they are all familiar people who can't be more familiar.
The Great Demon King, Eijun Sawamura.
The team's core main catcher, Yukikazu Miyuki!
The starting shortstop who hit the first bat.
The second best Kominato Haruchi!
The four people, who are the core and main force of the team, sit on the rest chair calmly.
None of their replacements on the field, except for pitcher Kawakami, were acquaintances.
Catcher Ono, second baseman Kijima......
These players, mushroom head Wakabayashi are naturally unfamiliar with them.
Qingdao High School, which left most of the main lineup, is still pressing the opponent to fight!
I'll go, it's not ordinary, it's just terrifying.
It's scary!
Not only the mushroom head Wakabayashi them, but also the supporters of Seido High School were also happy to watch.
Before, because Sawamura Eijun and Miyuki had too strong a sense of presence, unconsciously, the audience also neglected the performance of other players.
Now it seems that Qingdao High School is still very strong.
Kanto!
This is the most popular area for baseball in the country, and none of the top eight teams in it are underdogs.
Ticket mountain of the fifth place in Kanto!
Even if it's not the best team in the country, it's at least a national-level team.
Facing opponents of this level, Qingdao High School retained half of the main force.
You can still press your opponent to fight.
Just thinking about it makes people extremely excited.
The supporters of Qingdao High School are naturally pleasing to the eye.
The players on the field felt it differently.
The first is the four people sitting in the lounge area.
These four people are almost the absolute main force of Qingdao High School, except when the team needs to rotate, under normal circumstances, all four of them appear on the court at the same time.
In order to ensure the team's victory, even if Sawamura does not pitch on the pitcher's mound, he will be in the outfield.
This allows him to replace the pitcher mound at any time.
The other three are also the absolute core of the team.
When a new team is formed, they almost always start the first game.
Now these four absolute core main forces have all been replaced in the rest area.
Inspector Kataoka's intentions couldn't be more obvious.
He wants to use this opportunity to help the team select players who can play in the spring league.
In the Tokyo tournament, a team has a full 20 quotas. However, Koshien is different, with only 18 places.
This also means that there must be two people in the main force of the first army of Qingdao High School who have been kicked out of the first army.
For this matter, Superintendent Kataoka still did it in his own previous style.
Whoever helps the team stays.
Whoever is dispensable to the team will naturally not be eligible to go to Koshien.
Those who have the ability go up, and those who don't have the ability go down.
In the absence of the four core players of the team, who can take the lead in the results?
Who can determine the next qualifications, or even the main qualifications.
