With Rong Chun's expression as if he was going to die, he finally waited for the afternoon match with Xibang.

"It's coming, it's coming, I've been waiting for a long time, Sibon."

Rong Chun's eyes became sparkling, and the usual cute eyes felt like a beast staring at its prey.

"Ono-senpai~~, Ono-senpai~~, let's go practice throwing!"

"Huh? Go now? ”

Ono looked at the impatient child, a little helpless.

"Please, Ono-senpai~~"

Ono scratched his head in annoyance, before the match with Xibang, he didn't really want Rong Chun to practice throwing too much.

If it passes now, Rong Chun will definitely not be able to stop practicing.

But....Ono glanced at Rong Chun, don't overdo it,

It's hard to say no to such a look! ’

Not far from the two of them, the two first-year catchers were about to move, and they looked at Ono condemningly, as if to say, how can you refuse him.

Seeing that the two first-year catchers wanted to help Rong Chun practice,

If you let the first-grader accompany Rong Chun, he will definitely cast endlessly, forget it, I can control it if I am here. ’

"Yes..."

Hearing Ono's reply, Rong Chun suddenly became happy,

"But...., when I think I should stop, you have to stop, or you will honestly stay in the rest area and wait until I tell you to go to practice throwing!"

Ono said to Rong Chun very seriously, and Rong Chun, who was more and more excited before the game, naturally agreed.

Although you can see from Ono's expression that he can't enjoy it, it's better than not at all!

"Understood!"

Rong Chun rushed to the cowshed with his gloves, after all, it was his own field, Rong Chun could go to the cowshed where they often practiced, and he could also stop Xibang's reconnaissance in advance.

"The other party is Aichi's leader, Saibun High School led by Coach Saibon.

Although there is no super strong hitter like last year's homework, from the first to the ninth bat, he can hit the ball at a very high speed.

The lineup of machine gun shots that cannot be stopped once the momentum rises is a strong enemy that will not lose to Yamamori.

Ono and Sawamura take them down for me! ”

Superintendent Kataoka said the most provocative words in the most bland tone, Ono and Eijun glanced at each other, one was serious, the other smiled brightly, and said in unison,

"Yes!"

After a period of rest, Xibang's players also warmed up, while Rong Chun was already impatient.

"We're a back attacker, so you can play as hard as you like when you start with Sawamura."

"Yes, my warm-up today is very sufficient, Ono-senpai, let's fire up from the first game!"

Ono saw the energetic Rong Chun, and some were infected by his happiness.

"Ah, I don't have a problem, as long as you don't have the strength to be replaced because you drive too much."

"Not really!"

"Then let's go, mate!"

After a gentle fist bump, the two ran towards the arena, and the opening was still Rong Chun's signature move.

"I'm going to be knocked out constantly, everyone on guard, please take care of me!"

"Oh~~~"

For the Qingdao players, Rong Chun's words, as if it were the beginning of the game, can always mention their momentum in an instant.

At the prompting of Kataoka's supervision, Eijun and Ono greeted the player from Saibon with a very strong straight ball at the beginning, and the fast and fierce straight ball rushed into the inside corner of the hitter.

"Bang!"

With an unimaginably loud sound, a batter in Sibonne clenched the bat in his hand,

According to the data, this pitcher has a lot of ball changes, good ball control, sharp pitching, but the ball quality is not heavy enough.

Although it may also be the reason for the catcher's good skills, making such a sound will definitely not be the ability of the catcher alone, and the pitcher's ball power and tail strength are also stronger than expected. ’

Just one goal, Rong Chun made the players of Xibang quickly increase the danger level of him, although Rong Chun didn't know the specific thoughts of the batter, but from his guarded eyes, Rong Chun was even more excited!

Under the watchful eye of the batter, Rong Chun smiled brightly and threw the baseball in the opposite direction from the one just now.

"Bang!"

"Good shot!"

'It's far away.... Sure enough, after a sharp straight ball, the outside corner looks extraordinarily far away, and with the pitcher's posture, the first player may not even be able to adapt to the straight ball. ’

Although the batter's thoughts are very negative, the swing of the batstick is crisp and neat, even if he doesn't hit the baseball, the bold way of swinging the bat, Rong Chun cares a lot.

For Rong Chun, who has faced a lot of strong fights and is full of pressure, Xibang's players don't seem to have enough deterrence.

Not seeing Xibang's style of playing, Rong Chun was a little worried, after all, the opponent's players looked too calm.

Whether it's a strike strikeout, or a two-ball strikeout, even the third striker left with a flat face.

Rong Chun, who was used to seeing his team for the first time and was surprised by his posture, was a little unaccustomed.

Eijun probably forgot that his posture is indeed very special, but as the ace of Seido High School, a player who appeared on the Koshien stage in the first grade, he has long been on the list of key attention of many schools.

Rong Chun's posture is indeed difficult to analyze for some schools with thin backgrounds, but there are still traces of long-term wealthy families.

The reason why they were not surprised was only because they knew about it and knew that Rong Chun's pitch was not the first time they could hit it, so their mentality was so peaceful.

This kind of peaceful attitude makes Rong Chun very concerned, for this kind of unexpected joy, I am afraid that the coach of Xibang did not expect it.

However, although Rong Chun was worried, he still threw quite well in the first half of the first game, as he himself said, and went all out from the beginning.

"The opponent played the most perfect start, so he threw too comfortably, I have to find a way to break down such a straight ball"

Xibang's four bats also came back from the waiting area, and glanced at Rong Chun, who was walking towards the rest area, and said softly while taking off his equipment,

"I envy him."

Coach Sibon glanced at his student,

"If only I could pitch like him without confusion...."

'Saint also...'

"The period of the adjustment period is over, and the next thing is to see the performance and the results. As an ace... I went. ”

Saibon's four-batter Akashi Seiya, an ace pitcher who pitches double cultivation.

"Akashi Seiya, he caused a stir when he made his debut in Koshien in the first grade, surpassing Naru Narumiya."

The third grader, who had some memories of the pitcher in Sibon, turned over his information from the memories.

"Known as a super freshman, he shot three games by himself, and it seems like he hit two home runs."

"Really?"

Rong Chun, who was still sitting on his stomach and drinking water, sat up straight all of a sudden, and looked at the opponent's pitcher in surprise.

"Well, I remember it very clearly.... But at the Koshien tournament last year, there wasn't much information about him, even though he was a batter. ”

To someone else who was also somewhat impressed, he added,

"But it seems like an elbow injury? When he was in sophomore grade, he barely threw a ball. ”

"Hurt..."

Rong Chun looked at Akashi Seiya seriously and heard the comments of his predecessors. For Rong Chun, this player is like the trump card of his dreams.

It is an ace pitcher, and it is still the most important four bats in attack, this goal is simply too difficult for Rong Chun, more difficult than he set to become an ace at the beginning, but Rong Chun has never given up.

After hearing that this player was injured, Rong Chun had an inexplicable feeling and felt a little uncomfortable.

Under the gaze of everyone, Akashi Seiya also threw his first ball, raised his legs high, slashed through the air, and firmly stepped on the ground, a very big stride.

The tight muscles of the lower body tensed, and the body writhed, and the pitch full of great power rushed into the catcher's glove.

Rong Chun's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that such a pitch could be thrown by an injured person.

"Hurt....?"

No one answered him, and everyone was attracted by the pitchers on the field, just like Rong Chun before, who caught the opponent's eye with a single ball.

"Bang!"

"Good shot! The batter is out. ”

The one-stick warehouse was helplessly struck by the air, and the opponent's neat appearance made him very unhappy.

The subsequent Kominato Spring City did not escape the fate of being struck by the three strikes after several entanglements.

"It's so fast, Akashi Seiya's pitching stance has changed."

"The lines of the butt and thighs look very strong."

"As long as you can shoot that ball low, no one will be able to hit it!"

"Cast beautifully!"

"The ball is powerful!"

"Shengya, this ball is very crucial!!"

When Qingdao and the audience were talking, Coach Saibong looked at Akashi Seiya's eyes with a little sadness,

When I was in the first year of Koshien, I was able to stick to my pitching style without any scruples because of the defensive table of my seniors.

When he entered the second grade, he felt a sense of responsibility and often struggled with the gap between his goals and reality.

After the injury, I had problems with my pitching posture and couldn't win the game for a long time. ’

The overseer remembered Akashi Seiya's depressed, helpless, and even desperate expression at that time.

However, the expression of the overseer of Xibang was also serious and resolute,

'The time for making excuses is over... In the last year of high school, the next step is to overcome the psychological barrier on your own. ’

"Bang!"

"Swing it off, strike out!!"

"Three out, offense and defense switch!"

Seiya Akashi, who won one number of outs after another, returned to the rest area surrounded by his teammates.

"Great! Cast beautifully, saint also! ”

"Pretty, buttocks!"

"This game is critical!!"

"The thighs are very powerful."

For their own long-suffering trump card, the players of Xibang have never been stingy with their praise, although the praise is a little strange.

Akashi Seiya is not angry with the strange nicknames his teammates give him, and always looks at his teammates who are laughing cheerfully and dotingly.

"Wow, it's a different kind of player, and both sides started very well."

"It's so interesting, how is this game going to play out?"

Superintendent Xibang watched the players come back and said with a smile,

"Looks good."

"Yes, it was a perfect start, thanks to the pitcher who ignited my spirit."

Akashi took off his hat, looked at Rong Chun, who was about to play, took the protective gear handed to him by his teammates, and slowly put it on.

As the fourth batter, Seiya Akashi was the first batter in the first half of the second inning.

The slightly hooked corners of his mouth and his resolute eyes made Rong Chun laugh along.

The third-year contestants who are only in the final year are really imposing, and their expressions are completely different....

In terms of fighting spirit, I won't lose to you! ’

Because if you shoot a good ball first, you can maintain a good pitching rhythm, and you won't be able to succeed. ’

Akashi also has his own target ball, which is a straight ball that is difficult to get used to after winning three out games in the last game.

As he watched the baseball sped toward his inner corner, he swung the bat in his hand.

Just as I was about to hit the baseball, the ball suddenly disappeared....

Akashi Seiya, who didn't have any sense of blowing, heard the sound of a baseball smashing into his glove, and his expression became different.

If it was a straight ball in a special position, it would have been forgotten, but now he didn't react to what had just happened at all.

It's obviously a straight ball, but it disappears in front of his eyes, even if others don't say it, he knows it's a change ball, but what is this ball.

Compared to Seiya Akashi, who looked confused in the strike zone, their rest area players could see it clearly.

"The trajectory of that ball just now is not a Carter ball?"

"Well, the information says that this pitcher will carter the ball and the two-seam straight ball, and there is nothing wrong with the carter ball just now."

"The trajectory of change is really big, but it's even more strange that the saint didn't hit it."

"Sure enough, there's something special about this pitcher's change ball."

The first ball is a change ball in the inside corner, and the next one should be a straight ball in the outside corner! ’

Akashi Sheng, who was staring at the straight ball unwaveringly, also swung into the air again,

'It's a speedball this time... I'm really flattered, for me alone, I saw two different balls of change.

I think he seems to have a finger fork ball like a change ball, and the one just now I don't know if it's a carter ball or a two-seam change ball, which means that he still has two change balls left and hasn't shot.

Are young people so scary nowadays? When I was in the second grade, I was struggling with the heavy burden of the trump card. ’

The two balls chased Xibang's four-batter and ace pitcher, and the smile on Rong Chun's face became brighter and brighter.

The foot slammed into the ground, the arm flung out hard, and the baseball flew straight towards the low corner of the corner.

Akashi Sheng, who had been waiting for the straight ball on all fours and had been waiting for the straight ball, swung his bat again.

"Bang!"
