Chapter 60: The Evolving Demon King (Part 2)

The high fly ball directly above the pitcher's mound was firmly caught in the gloves by Sawamura.

"Smack!"

"Out!"

As soon as the game is out, no one is on base.

On the pitcher's hill, a hint of smugness flashed in Sawamura's eyes.

This year's Koshien, he is not without gains. Compared to the Nishi-Tokyo tournament, Sawamura's understanding of high school baseball and even baseball itself has changed a lot. For a player of his level, any little gain is a huge leap.

Not to mention, a great stride!

In the past, Sawamura, in the face of the strong beating of high school, all he wanted was to use his strength to crush him. Now he has a different understanding, and he doesn't necessarily have to use tough pitching to crush his opponent.

His own talent is not suitable for such an approach.

In that case, why not find another way.

As long as you can win the game, you can call him a black cat and a white cat, and if you catch a mouse, you will be a good cat.

No matter what kind of pitch it is, as long as it can solve the hitter, it is a good pitch. As for whether it is a strikeout or relying on the garrison to take it, it makes no difference......

At this time, Sawamura seemed to have taken off the shackles he had been wearing on his body, and the whole person was let go.

Just like now, he is also confident in dealing with Akutsu.

On the strike zone, Akutsu's gaze was very sharp.

A hit!

In any case, it is necessary to win a hit first, which is the premise for Xibang High School to be able to attack Sawamura.

Although Akutsu said this in front of all the players at Saiho High School before. But in fact, he knew very well in his heart that the only ones who could really win hits from Sawamura were the next three people.

One of himself, one senior Sano, and at most a small zero.

Tough against Sawamura, the three of them are the ones who are likely to get hits. Others, if they want to win hits, have to rely on some small tricks and luck.

Luck is illusory, and small tricks are not necessarily useful for an experienced player like Sawamura.

With Yakutsu's IQ, he would never pin his hopes on such an illusory thing. He believed more in himself and Sano, the strength of the plains.

Catcher's position.

Chris solemnly looked at Akutsu, who was waiting in the strike zone, and secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.

Before the game, Akutsu revealed so little information that they didn't gather enough information at all. And the other party's IQ of 200 is scary enough. He should have guessed what we were going to throw next.

With Chris's old spiciness, he didn't dare to guarantee that he could see through Akutsu's thoughts.

However, that didn't stop him from developing a pitching strategy against Yakutsu.

Since the ball will be seen through, let's shoot some balls that don't affect even if they are seen through.

The biggest difference between Sawamura and Akutsu is that although Sawamura has a lot of changing balls, it is not without a decisive way.

Come on, next ball, Quirk Ball-change!

Kinky Balls - Change!

For Sawamura, it's a handful of balls, with all five fingers firmly grasped on the baseball and thrown the ball. Because of the different directions he holds the ball, coupled with his naturally soft wrist, the ball will produce different sharp changes.

Even Sawamura and Chris can't predict this change, even if Akutsu has a super brain comparable to a computer, he can't predict Sawamura's quirk ball-change, what has changed!

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura's entire body stretched, and the five fingers of his left hand firmly grasped the ball, and then threw the ball in the same action as before.

"Whoosh!"

The little white ball, whizzing, was on top of home plate in the blink of an eye.

In the striking zone, Akutsu chose the ball very decisively and swung his bat.

"Ping!"

The small white ball was hit and flew down behind Sawamura.

"Okay!"

Watching Akutsu hit the ball out, the players in the rest area of Saibon High School were extremely excited.

Behind the pitcher, there is generally a guard gap.

Although this kind of ball will be blocked by the stalwman and will not allow the hitter to go to second base, the first base is still sufficient.

It's just that this gap is for the other high schools, and for Qingdao Dao, there is no gap between their second baseman and shortstop in the middle of the place.

"Hip hop!"

Like a white-blue shadow, it suddenly appeared in front of the baseball rebound, Kuramochi stopped the baseball, and then didn't even stand up at the waist, and directly gave the ball to Ryosuke Kominato, who came up to meet him.

Ryosuke Kominato catches the ball empty-handed and passes the ball to first base.

This electric and flint-like change directly stunned the audience at the scene.

Akutsu spread his bat and before he even reached the halfway point to home plate in the strike zone, he was blocked out.

Two outs, no one on base.

"The second tour room of the iron wall!"

"Qingdao's strongest barrier !!"

"Handsome!"

In the stands, in the rest area of Qingdao, countless friends excitedly cheered for Ryosuke Kominato and Kuramochi.

In the position of the catcher, Chris's face was a little ugly.

Kinky balls-change have been beaten out!

Is this guy named Yakutsu really a monster?

That being said, but in fact, Chris knows that there is a lot of luck in the ball just now, and Akuzu was able to hit the ball out.

Although Sawamura's quirk ball change has changed, the magnitude of the change is not very large.

Thinking about it, he looked at Sawamura thoughtfully.

Sawamura shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

The change in the quirk ball to the pitch, he has no way to manipulate. There are extremely sharp ones, and naturally there are some less sharp ones......

"If there are people on the baseball, it still can't be used as a decisive goal."

Although Sawamura's strength is extremely strong, it is not flawless. Just like now, Chris has discovered a small shortcoming.

Sawamura now has three deciding goals.

Overdrive straight ball, finger cross ball - change and quirk ball - change!

One of the quirk balls is changed, and in the case of someone on the base bag, it is best not to use it.

The stakes are just too high!

The only things that can really be used as deciding balls are over-speed straight balls and knuckle balls - changed!

"After this tournament, it looks like Sawamura is going to develop a new decisive goal~"

Without warning, the thought crossed Chris's mind. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, in the next few days, he was afraid that he would not be able to develop a new decisive ball with Sawamura......

After all, after this competition, he will also graduate.

"Fourth baseman, third baseman, Sano."

After two outs, it was the turn of Saiho High School's line to Shuzo Sano, who was the fourth baseman.

Before going on the strike, Shuzo Sano's mind kept recalling what Akutsu had asked him to say before.

"Senior, no matter what, you must get a hit first!"

A hit!

It's not about scoring, it's just a hit.

I didn't expect that Akutsu, who is usually arrogant, would ask him so solemnly.

Now, he's going to win this hit no matter what, even if the opponent is a real demon king, he's going to do it.

This is his duty as the Four Sticks of the West Side.

"Come on, Mr. Demon King!"
