Chapter Seventy-Nine: No. 1 in the Country! (2nd Update)
By the time Seido High School and Shono High School competed, there were already five of the top eight in the country.
As far as the eye can see, almost all of them are acquaintances of Qingdao High School.
Yakushi High School, also from Tokyo, has become the biggest dark horse in this year's spring Koshien selection competition.
They relied on their powerful attack power to defeat their opponents one after another.
The biggest star of Yakushi High School is, of course, the monster fighter Thunder City.
In the first round of the tournament, he scored two home runs, one hit, and four RBIs.
and being escorted once.
All the seats are on base, and the success rate of the base is 100%.
What does it mean to be a blockbuster? It's called a blockbuster.
If it was a tournament in the Tokyo area, Thunder City would have made such a splash in Tokyo.
But it was different to get such a result in Koshien, and such a performance was enough to make Thunder City famous all over the country.
Then in the second game, Thunder City hit two home runs again and were guaranteed twice.
In just two games, he scored four home runs.
Koshien was tied by Eijun Sawamura for a record of five home runs in the summer.
It is likely to be rewritten because of the arrival of Thunder City.
There were four home runs in the two games and a third round has already been confirmed.
How many home runs can Monster Thunder City win? This has become the top three big news in Koshien this spring.
Inagi Industrial High School, also from Tokyo, also advanced to the national quarterfinals after a difficult battle.
Tokyo Prince Narimiya holds his own record of clean scores.
It's just that their opponent is a little unusual, and it is the now very, very strong Seishosha.
It was almost the same routine as the first round, and Daocheng Industrial High School didn't dare to let its own substitutes play.
With the strength of the Seishosha, if Daocheng Industrial High School dared to send his own substitute pitcher, then he would be looking for his own death.
The final score stayed at 2:0.
It's another tough pitching battle.
played one after another and shot the whole game. Although the performance is very good, it also makes everyone see the hidden dangers.
The group before the quarterfinals, Daocheng, Qingzhengshe, and Xipu are undoubtedly the strongest death group.
Although Daocheng Industrial High School was killed in the death group, it was also greatly damaged.
Especially Cheng Gongming, who is the ace, he has not rested for a single game.
If the grouping after the quarterfinals, it will be like this again.
Daocheng Industrial High School is estimated not to survive the last.
Unless they add another Cheng Gong Ming to their team, no matter how strong their overall strength is, they will not be able to do it.
In addition to these two friends who are also from Tokyo, the other three who have been promoted are all acquaintances of Seido High School.
Hakuryu High School, I had met with Qingdao High School in the Kanto Conference before.
They also qualified, winning 7-1.
The terrifying mobility hits the opponent by surprise!
The trolls are the next to advance!
The score they won was even more terrifying, sweeping Zhaomei High School 10:0.
The most terrifying thing is that their ace pitcher didn't play at all, and the whole game was hidden.
I have to insert here that grouping is really a fucking thing.
If you really want to talk about comprehensive strength, Daocheng Industry will definitely not be worse than the troll Datenmaki from Hokkaido.
But they took two completely different paths.
With the troll retaining his trump card, he naturally advanced to the quarterfinals and could meet the eight-in-four match with a complete attitude.
And Daocheng Industry is more sad.
They met the top heroes in the country one after another, and barely advanced after a bloody battle.
Ace pitcher Cheng Gongming's physical exertion is very serious, and he is obviously a little physically exhausted in the late stage of playing with Qingzheng Society.
If it weren't for the cover of his teammates, he might have fallen on the pitch.
In such a situation, I met a strong school that made it to the top eight in the country.
The future of Daocheng Industry is worrying.
Yakushi, Inajo, Trolls, White Dragons!
These four schools, the people of Seido High School, are all familiar with them.
The fifth to advance, they are no strangers.
Seobon High School!
Under the leadership of Akutsu and Hirahara Zero, Saibon High School also made the cut smoothly.
And both games were big sweeps.
Over the past few months, they have not only improved their defensive capabilities, but also honed their striking prowess.
The top eight nationals were released one after another, and soon it was the turn of Qingdao High School to compete.
Their opponent is Shono High School.
Like Inagi, Seido High School didn't have good luck.
If the grouping of Daocheng Industrial High School is the first death group, then Qingdao High School is close behind, and it is divided into the second death group.
Baoming is one of the top 10 in the country and is the entrance school of the Jingu Conference.
Shono High School is also the top in the country.
Encountering such a team one after another, Qingdao and Inagi, the two schools from Tokyo, can be regarded as typical difficult brothers.
On the day of the game, the starting pitcher sent by Seido High School was Akira Shibuyani.
Sawamura sat honestly on the rest chair.
The experience of Daocheng Industry is terrible!
Although Sawamura Eisumi did not shoot the whole game in the first game.
But because he continued to soar the speed of the ball, his physical strength was also consumed a lot.
Playing in a row, it's a big burden on him.
After consulting with Coach Ochiai, Superintendent Kataoka decided to use Akira Katagani.
There's a reason for that.
In the past few months, Akira Shibuyani and Eijun Sawamura have been soaking together for a long time, and they have made great progress.
Another reason is to be surprised.
The opponent is the top Haoqiang in the country, and he will definitely think that Qingdao High School is sending an ace.
At this time, sending Gu Xiao on the field may be able to get a surprise effect.
Very good!
The more I pondered this idea, the better it became, and Kataoka and Rakuchi were combined, and it was decided.
Not to mention, the effect is really good.
Seeing that it was Xiaoya Xiao who appeared on the stage, Zhuangye High School was obviously stunned.
They were a little overwhelmed.
Especially after Xiaogu threw the first ball, this kind of overwhelm was magnified countless times.
"Boom!"
As if a bomb had exploded, the small white ball burrowed into Miyuki's glove with an astonishing momentum.
"Boom!"
One goal, just one goal.
Xiaogu shocked the audience.
He was already a player remembered by Koshien, and now he has pushed his glory a big step forward.
On the electronic speedometer, a large data is displayed on it.
Ball speed: 156 km/h!!
In today's high school baseball world, there are many geniuses and monsters.
But even so, there are very few people who can throw a ball speed of 150 kilometers.
In the case of Koshien, only three people have done it.
Nari Narumiya, the fastest ball speed is 151 kilometers, and the average ball speed is not even 150 kilometers.
Hongo Masamune, the fastest ball speed is 153 km/h. The average ball speed fluctuates around 150 km/h.
And Xiaogu easily threw 156 kilometers.
In this year's Koshien first goal, he broke the record of Naru Narumiya and Hongo's fastest time.
Deservedly the first person in the country in terms of ball speed!
