The first battle of the Kwantung Conference gradually came to an end.

At the end of the seventh game, the score of the two sides was deadlocked at 5:4, and Qingdao High School fell behind by one point.

And so the game came to the eighth inning.

In the first half of the eighth inning, Yokohama Minato Kita College attacked.

At this time, Yokohama's line play was their turn to play the second line in the upper position.

"Good shot!"

"Good shot!"

"Good shot!"

"Strikeout!!

There was no suspense, and Yokohama, who saw Sawamura covering the pitch for the first time, was struck out by the second bat.

Although Bai Yu had already given Yokohama's friends a pass before, but like Sawamura's masked pitching, it doesn't mean that you can prevent it if you know it in advance.

It was too sudden, too fast.

"God, in the face of Yokohama's port line, he actually won so many strikeouts."

"Four strikeouts in a row."

"Next one, avoid being struck by no matter what."

"yes, you have to stop the pitcher."

"But it's going to be the three, four, or five sticks of the core line soon, will you really run away?"

……

The discussion in the audience could not change the decision of the Yokohama Minato Kita superintendent, and he looked coldly at Sawamura on the pitcher's hill and smiled bitterly in his heart.

It's still the first grade here!

The first time he played, he dominated the game.

Even if he doesn't have the brilliant achievements of his middle school days, just with Sawamura's performance in this game, he is enough to make a name for himself in Kanto!

Coupled with Sawamura's illustrious reputation in middle school, it is conceivable that after this game, Yokohama Minato Kita may become a stepping stone for Sawamura's strong comeback.

"Absolutely not!"

The overseer of Yokohama, his face was blue and white.

"Oyama, Furano, we must not let that little ghost go on any more rampage. Hit me hard! ”

Although Sawamura's strength surprised the overseer of Yokohama Minatokita, he preferred to believe in his disciple's wielding.

Oyama once hit Tanba's ball, and Furano even hit two home runs.

Whether it is their performance on weekdays or their form today, the overseer of Yokohama Minato Kita has never thought that Sawamura can defeat them.

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

Sawamura ushered in Yokohama Minato Kita High School, the two strongest hitters.

Miyuki looked at Oyama, who calmly walked up to the strike zone, and his heart was alert.

Here it comes!

If the strikeout Yokohama Minato Kita is the goal, then the next two are the strongest challenges they need to face.

Are you confident?

Thinking about it, Miyuki set his eyes on Sawamura.

"Of course!"

There was no flinching in Sawamura's eyes, only a strong fighting spirit and self-confidence.

"What a trump card!"

Even if it's on the same team, even if it's a teammate, Miyuki can feel the confidence in Sawamura.

I have to say that this guy who is a year younger than him is really terrifying.

Then let's do it!

First ball, straight ball from the outside corner!

On the pitcher mound, Sawamura nodded and threw the ball.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball, like a laser light, flew to the edge of the outer corner.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

On the edge of the outside corner of the first ball, Oyama did not swing the bat.

At this time, the muscles on his face were shaking. Although I have heard my friends say that you will not be able to see the pitcher's drop point in the strike zone, I feel that the ball speed is very fast.

But when I saw it with my own eyes, I still had a different feeling.

I couldn't see the point where Sawamura threw the ball, so when I hit it, it felt very weird. It's also hard to judge the timing of the swing.

And, the ball is fast!

It's not just fast, it's amazing, right?

It feels like a 145 km/h fast ball thrown by a pitching machine, or even a little faster.

Cold sweat ran down Oyama's forehead, and he was startled by Sawamura's pitch.

Sawamura has been honing his ball speed since his first year of junior high school, and he has been non-stop for three years. Maybe because of his natural physical reasons, he has never been able to do it like Akira Tsukiya and Hongo.

But his current body and the speed at which he can throw the ball have also been developed to the limit.

Plus a new pitching stance, and a good touch of the hard ball itself. Although Sawamura's current ball speed is not 14, it is not much different.

In a high school where monsters are rampant, Sawamura's ball speed can definitely be regarded as a fast ball.

Coupled with the fact that he throws the ball so that the hitter can't see the drop point, it looks much faster than the real ball speed.

Combining these factors, Sawamura's pitching, even an ordinary straight ball, is very amazing.

Without two rounds of adaptation, it is difficult to hit Sawamura's pitch!

But now, where is there still time to adapt?

There are two innings left in the game, and Qingdao only needs five outs. With Sawamura's strength, Oyama can imagine that if he can't get a hit, then the team's hopes will be focused on the four-bat Furano.

Although Furano is strong, it's unlikely that he will hit Sawamura's ball in a home run, right?

After Furano, there was no player in Yokohama Kohoku who could hit Nakasawa Village in the first round.

Even if he recognized his teammates very much, Oyama still dared to make such an assertion.

"This guy is a monster!"

With the same evaluation of Sawamura as Miyuki, Oyama gritted his teeth and aimed at the second ball thrown by Sawamura.

The bat was swung out without touching the ball at all.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

The cold sweat on Oyama's forehead fell faster.

The limit of the inner corner!

From the limits of the outer corners to the corners of the inner corners.

Such a good ball belt, it looks so wide.

Oyama, who was already sawamura's pitching posture, was scorched, and at this time he scratched his scalp.

Misplaced such a big ball, even if he can hit it, he can't hit it well.

"You have to choose a ball path to play!"

Inner corner, or outer corner?

The first ball is the limit of the outside corner, and the second ball is the corner of the inside corner.

So the third goal......

Oyama chose a ball path and swung his bat decisively when Sawamura pitched.

The bat is swung out, but it does not touch the ball.

It's not that Oyama didn't guess the way the ball was played, but that he miscalculated, and the baseball changed.

This ball, why is it so slow? Not yet!

When the Oyama blow was over, the little white ball was too late.

"Smack!"

"Good shot!"

"Strikeout!"

Oyama looked in horror at Miyuki at the catcher position, and Sawamura on the pitcher's hill.

The last ball turned out to be a speed ball!

Not only is the pitching area vast, but there are also gradual changes......

Is this pitcher so complete?

Two outs, no one on base.

It was Furano's turn to strike.

In the stands.

The audience was already a little dumbfounded.

There has been, a speedball!

I didn't even hit the strong stick tail mountain!

"Five!"

"yes, five, five strikeouts in a row."

"Strong, Sawamura."

"It's worthy of being my big demon king, even if he is promoted to high school, he is just as domineering."

……

In the cowshed of the north of the Yokohama port.

Yokohama's superintendent looked at Sawamura incredulously.

Just promoted to high school, does Sawamura still have such strength?
