Chapter 40: The Heroes of Tokyo

This game, the impact on the new students, is undoubtedly huge.

Even if they used to focus on high school baseball, it was as outsiders. Of course, it's easy to judge.

Now it is different, they have to stand in the shoes of Seido High School players and look at this high school competition.

The feeling was immediately different!

Looking at the seniors fighting on the court, they will also unconsciously bring themselves into it. What would have been his performance if he had played in that game?

Thinking about it this way, it's really not so easy.

That kind of strength after a lot of tempering is not something they can match now.

With an almost heavy heart, the freshmen returned to school with the contestants.

The realizations that today's game brought to them are far from over, and they will have to work harder in the coming days.

Without the quality of those seniors on the field, how can they possibly have a chance to become a team in the team?

These players who were able to come to Seido High School must have come with such beliefs.

There is absolutely no one who is here specifically to be a substitute.

What they were aiming for at the beginning was the ranks of the first army of Qingdao High School. There are even many outstanding players who have investigated this matter in advance, is Qingdao High School meritocracy or seniority?

Judging from the results of the survey, there is no doubt that Seido High School is meritocracy.

Almost every year, new students enter the first team, and it has become a tradition of the Qingdao High School baseball team. Last year, there were three people in one go.

The big demon king Sawamura Eijun, the monster pitcher Akira Tani, and the powerful newcomer Haruichi Kominato.

This year, if not surpassing last year, at least it's about the same!

But even if there are three or four places waiting for them, there are more than 60 new students, and that's not counting the apprentices.

It's not easy to stand out from so many newcomers.

Not to mention competing with those seniors......

That's the big impact of today's game on the freshmen, but that's all for later.

When Qingdao High School defeated their opponents, the opponents that Qingdao High School needed to pay attention to were also hot one by one.

The scouting personnel of Qingdao High School sent a total of six teams.

In the entire Tokyo area, there are certainly more than just six teams that need Seido High School's attention.

But they really don't have anyone left.

The other teams all regard Seido High School as the first imaginary enemy, so they will send people to watch Seido no matter what.

Of course, the Seido High School baseball team wants to do the same, but their opponents are not limited to one one.

There are a lot of teams that can catch their attention, so you have to be selective.

For example, Mingchuan!

That is, the team led by Yang Sunsin.

For that team, the players of Seido High School were very impressed.

Especially their competition with Yakushi High School made the contestants of Seido High School feel uneasy.

Regardless of the process of the previous fight, the players of Qingdao High School are very recognized by the strength of Yakushi High School.

Ming Chuan was able to suppress the violent line of Yakushi High School in the game with Pharmacist High School without the slightest temper.

If nothing else, this alone is enough to attract the attention of Qingdao High School.

But the students who came to scout came to take a look, and they were immediately stunned.

Yang Sun-sin, the ace pitcher of Myeongcheon High School, a man known as a precision machine, actually ran away to be a caddy.

The caddy is the one who picks up the ball!

Some throw-ins or something, they're responsible for picking them up.

It's incredible!

The audience couldn't stand it either.

90% of the people who came to see the Mingchuan High School competition came for Yang Sunsin.

Now the player they're expecting is picking up the ball, and that's hard to accept.

Later, when I inquired, I learned that Yang Sunsin did not enroll in the semester of the island country at all, but came here as an exchange student after studying on the island for half a year.

According to his school status, this guy is almost graduating!

It's just that according to the actual study, he still has a whole school year. (Treasure Island is half an academic year, and I will graduate in July!) )

According to the relevant regulations, this guy is no longer eligible to play.

After a hard battle, the players of Mingchuan School Park finally lost to their opponents 5:3.

This is the end of their spring journey.

You know, it's just a 64-32 game.

Even in the Tokyo area, the most famous devil division in the country. The competition at this level is not very intense.

Not to mention that the opponents encountered by Sichuan School Park are not very strong.

But even so, they were still easily.

I think when Yang Sunsin was the ace pitcher of their team, Mingchuan School was a strong team that could compete with Yakushi High School and Qingdao High School.

Although the overall strength is inevitably at a disadvantage, it can always be matched.

Without Yang Sunsin, now they are afraid that they will not be worthy of lifting shoes for those two teams.

If it's a race, they can't even catch up with other people's heels.

It's really a sigh of relief.

Compared with the tragic Mingchuan Academy, several other teams that were concerned by Qingdao High School were relatively relaxed.

The first is, of course, Yakushi High School.

Originally, everyone thought that this team was exhausted in Koshien.

I didn't expect it to be like that at all!

Thunder City was adjusted to the first baton and won the opening kick directly.

"Quack!"

With a scream, the white ball flew straight off the pitch after being hit.

"Home run!"

"The man who tied Eijun Hirasawa with five home runs in Koshien once again showed his toughness."

"The first to score was Pharmacist High School!"

Starting with this home run in Thunder City, Yakushi High School showed their characteristics of violent play.

I can't find the north of the opponent who abused him all the time.

By the end of the game, the score had stretched to 14 points.

In the end, it was 14:2, and the game was valid in five games in advance.

The reason why they lost two points was not that their ace pitcher, Toshihei Sanada, was not strong.

It's Mishima's problem.

The superintendent of Yakushi High School, Lei Zang, has never limited the possibilities of his own players.

In other teams, players are generally fixed in which position, and there will be no adjustments unless there are special circumstances.

But that's not the case at all at Yakushi High School, with infielders, outfielders, pitchers, and even catchers......

As long as it's in the right location, it's not too bad.

Who knows where the player will be?

"It's amazing!"

"Amazing !!"

A group of freshmen from Pharmacist High School danced excitedly.

Perhaps they are rejoicing in their hearts, and it is great to be able to join Pharmacist High School.

"Youbu, we should get a chance soon!"

A freshman with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks asked the unattractive teenager around him.

"You are sure, my words are not necessarily!"

A boy named Tomobe holds a book in his hand.

As he spoke, he turned his head to look in the direction of the freshmen of Pharmacist High School.

There was a particularly tall teenager there.

At least 190 cm tall, standing there is like an iron tower.

"I didn't expect this kind of character to come to a small team like ours!"

Damn, if I knew I was going to run into him, I might as well join Qingdao directly.

It's a nightmare challenge anyway, so where is it not the same?

Even if you defeat that monster here, you don't necessarily have a chance to come out.

But at Seido High School, if you can really stand out on the pitcher's mound.

That's definitely going to be a fight.

Even if Qingdao High School falls into blood mold at that time, there will be no results.

Just being able to squeeze into the pitcher formation of Qingdao High School is enough to make people famous.

"yes, I didn't expect such a character to be on the team!"

The young man named Kuroki looked at the tall figure with the same look of jealousy.

In the rest area of Yakushi High School.

Bombardment Hidden Overseer lay lazily on the rest chair.

It was great to be able to enter Koshien in the spring before.

Because of its fame, the recruitment of new people has also gone a lot smoother.

There are even windfalls.

Thinking he glanced at the tall boy in the stands.

I didn't expect such a strong combat force to join!

Isn't it time for me to buy a lottery ticket?

In addition to these two teams, the team that is concerned by Qingdao is Didong!

Teedong High School, which lost to Seido High School in the first round of the fall competition, experienced the longest offseason in history.

During that time, their players have also made great progress.

You can see a little bit of it in today's game.

7:0!

With the pitcher as the core, Didong High School defeated the strong opponent strongly.

Seven valid innings.

Although the points they scored, the attack power they showed was not as good as that of Qingdao and Yakushi.

But it can be seen that they didn't give their best in this game and played very easily.

Obviously deliberately hiding strength.

Under the leadership of the little giant Maki, Xianquan also defeated his opponent strongly.

Uhisamori, Nariko, Red Devils, Nioh......

All the strong teams, one after another, defeated their opponents.

In an area like Tokyo, it's hard to get out on the dark horse.

There are too many strong players in this area, and if you don't have enough strength, you can easily be crushed.

But if there is a dark horse, it must be extremely amazing.

It's a pity that there is no dark horse coming out this time.

Almost all the winning teams are well-known and strong schools.

The remaining 32 teams, even if they haven't dealt with Qingdao before, must have heard of their fame.

This is the Tokyo Champions.

Of course, these two are indispensable in the so-called Tokyo heroes.

City University Sangao and Daocheng Industrial.

These two are both well-known top giants in the country, and the collision between them is highly anticipated.

Over the past year.

The third high school of the city university lost to Qingdao High School and Pharmacist High School successively, and the performance has not been very good.

On the contrary, under the pressure of the giant of Seido High School, Inagi Industrial not only managed to defeat Seido once, but also won the runner-up in the previous spring Koshien.

The strength is not strong.

One is at the pinnacle of life, the other is a little darker.

On the surface, it seems that the three high schools of the city have no chance of winning.

But when the two teams meet each other, it still gives people an unparalleled sense of shock.
