Chapter 46: Opening a New Era
"The overall score is 2:1, and in the first game of the semifinals, Akagi Junior High School played against Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School, and Akagi Junior High School won."
When the results were announced, the audience was stunned. Even the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood did not show any special joy.
Although Akagi won, it didn't seem to be the same script they had thought of before.
Shouldn't it be Sawamura who will complete the final blow?
But the competition is not a script, and this is not written in advance. Since it is not written in advance, no process is impossible.
"You're so lucky!"
Sawamura said with some jealousy.
Mari's last shot was really sweet, and Sawamura himself was sure to hit a home run. Although Mari's ball speed has not decreased, there is no fighting spirit in the ball, and such a ball is pie in the sky in Sawamura's opinion.
"This is strength!"
Feng Xiang Aoichi scoffed at Sawamura's luck. Sawamura hit a home run himself, and he always said that it was his own strength. And others hit a home run, and they say that others are lucky.
"Hey, I've learned to talk back. You have to figure it out, I'm the captain. ”
"I'm still your senior!"
Feng Xiang smiled, not to be outdone.
Now, he has also figured out Sawamura's temper. Aside from baseball, Sawamura doesn't particularly care about anything else.
Xiao Tian looked at the two who were 'flirting' and got goosebumps.
Well, the teenager is too mature, and he secretly watched too many videos and movies that he shouldn't watch, and he thinks more than ordinary people.
"Let's go, go and say hello to our opponent."
After arguing with Feng Xiang, Sawamura led Akagi's friends to say hello to Nagano Tsutachi.
"Thank you for the advice!"
"Thank you for the advice!!"
This time, Nagano Metropolitan High School was convinced, and there was no situation where he did not shake hands with his friends in Akagi last time.
"If you win us, don't lose the next game."
Mari grabbed Sawamura's hand and said seriously.
The loser pinned his dream on the winner, making Sawamura feel that the burden on his body sank a little more.
"Don't be discouraged, you lost to the champion of this year's national competition."
The corners of his mouth cracked, and Sawamura said seriously.
National!
Everyone in Nagano Metropolitan looked at Sawamura in amazement, feeling that Sawamura was talking in his sleep.
Nagano is definitely not a big place in the country, and it is not a fierce war zone itself. It is very difficult for a team in a non-fierce war zone to perform in the whole country.
Don't look at Nagano Prefecture, the Great North, and Nagano Metropolitan are known as the 'Three Kings'. That's just because their strength is far superior to other teams in the same prefecture and they have a monopoly on the Kanto Games.
If you really want to talk about strength, they are in the whole country, nothing. This can be seen from their record in the Kanto Convention, where both teams almost always entered the first round of the Kanto Convention, and at most eliminated in the second round.
Nagano Metropolitan Government and Daihoku Junior High School have not made it to a national tournament in many years.
Another Tenryu Temple, which was one of the top four in the country last year.
This is an impressive record, but in the Kanto Conference and the national tournament, they won by a small margin on several occasions. To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the super genius of Haruka Nanami, I'm afraid they wouldn't have gone that far.
Even if you can get lucky enough to make it to the whole country, it's just the strength of being eliminated in the first or second round.
The three kings are loud in Nagano Prefecture, but the real situation is that there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are called kings.
Sawamura even said that he wanted to win the national championship.
It's not a joke.
Nagano Tsuritsu's friends just wanted to taunt them a few words, but when they saw Sawamura's confident face, they felt that they couldn't say anything.
If someone else says so, they will definitely not think so, and even if the other party defeats them, it will not change anything. But this was said by Sawamura, so they had to weigh it.
In the first year, with a group of Shenkeng teammates, Sawamura once defeated Nagano Metropolitan Tsutatsu, one of the three kings. Now that their players are maturing, Sawamura is even more different.
Dominating the country, although it still feels a little absurd.
But if it's Sawamura, it may not be impossible!
In the cowshed of Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School.
Facing Fengxiang Long Yi, Mari lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, coach!" ”
Fengxiang Long Yi nodded and didn't say anything to Mari.
At this time, it is said that he should say two words to comfort Mari. After all, this game has a big impact on Mari. Whether it's being ashamed of himself compared to Sawamura, or losing to his old rival Feng Xiang Okuichi.
But Fengxiang Long Yi didn't have the heart to talk to Mali, his eyes looked at Fengxiang Aoyi in a daze.
"Okuichi, you've grown up!"
In front of Long Yi's gaze, Sawamura put his arm around Ashin with one hand and Feng Xiang with the other, excitedly celebrating with his friends.
Feng Xiang looked at Zecun with a smile and listened to where Zecun was talking.
In Akagi's team, as long as Sawamura is there, Sawamura will definitely be the focus. And even if the focus of Zecun is so hot and eye-catching, Feng Xiang's light has not been covered.
"Alright, alright!"
Sano burst into tears with excitement, then helped Wada, who was crying silently, and said to Sawamura, "Isn't it time to thank the audience!" ”
Sawamura nodded.
Beckoning to the brothers of the 'Brotherhood of the Red Heart'.
"Sawamura, Sawamura !!"
Brothers of the Brotherhood, immediately responded.
Sawamura's mood is extremely complicated now, and he is a little afraid to face the brothers of the Red Heart Brotherhood.
He never expected to gain such a loyal fan base in Nagano Prefecture, but sooner or later he himself would leave. How can I tell my friends when the time comes, in fact, it's okay, even if we are not teammates, we are still brothers and friends.
But how is he going to say goodbye to these fans who genuinely support him?
"Thank you! Thank you!!! ”
The Akagi Middle School team, a total of eighteen people, stood in a row and bowed deeply to the audience.
In the stands.
The friends of Tianlongsi Middle School stood up one by one.
"Next, it's our turn!"
in another corner.
A self-media reporter wrote a paragraph excitedly.
"Everything seems to be taken for granted, and after Akagi Junior High School defeated Daihoku, it overturned Nagano Metropolitan Height. In this harmonious atmosphere, who has ever noticed that unknowingly, Nagano Prefecture, which has been monopolized by the Three Kings for 20 years, has changed the number of participants in the Kanto Convention. ”
"A new era is about to begin for Nagano Prefecture!"
The editor-in-chief of "Baseball Boys" wrote something else.
Despite the different narratives, they also note a key point.
This year's Kanto Congress could be a terrible storm.
