The opponent is the captain of the national youth team.

An object that they never dared to think of before.

Standing on the strike zone, Akiba felt a little unsteady for the first time that he was holding the bat.

I was trembling slightly.

It's both nervous and exciting......

"This is a good opponent, you must cherish it, Akiba......"

In the rest area of the Yakushi High School baseball team, Superintendent Thunder Zang was as always, full of expectations for his disciples.

Although they are this age, that is, they are high school players in this year.

There are quite a few good pitchers and hitters!

Especially in terms of pitchers, it is like a blowout, and many outstanding guys have emerged.

But to say the strongest!

There is no doubt that it is the one in front of you, Takumi Fujima.

The ace pitcher of the national youth team.

It's not just their domestic professional teams, they ran in front of people one by one and took the initiative to send an olive branch.

It is said that even the teams in the major leagues are full of praise for his excellent performance.

Maybe he'll be the next Ichiro Suzuki.

There are already teams in the major leagues that offer sky-high contracts.

Everything else is fake, only the real money is real.

Professional scouts and overseers in the major leagues, no one is stupid. They do everything with their own purpose and intention.

They extended such an olive branch, which means that they think that after Fujima joins their team, there is a high probability that it will bring them greater benefits.

And only that greater good can make them pay so much......

This also proves from the side that how outstanding is Fujima Takumi?

He is undoubtedly the pitcher of his age who stands at the top of the pyramid.

Pitchers of this calibre are not unheard of.

For example, Narumiya Naruto......

From the standpoint of the superintendent of the thunder collection, he does not think that the ace of the national youth team is much stronger than Narumiya Narumi of the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School.

Although the two pitch in different styles.

But by and large, they should be considered pitchers of the same level.

Of course, as the trump card of the national youth team, the two are still different in momentum.

Especially the feeling of bringing the Yakushi High School baseball team.

In the past, when facing Narimiya of the baseball team of Daocheng Industrial High School, he didn't even need to say too much about the superintendent of Lei Zang.

They can adjust their mental state by themselves.

They will be able to take on this opponent in the fullest form and push their own limits.

This opponent is different.

Because of the halo he wears on his head, the players of the Yakushi High School baseball team will inevitably be burdened with psychological pressure when facing this opponent.

And this kind of terrifying psychological pressure is not something he can help the contestants resolve by simply saying a few words.

It's up to the players to do it themselves!

They have to overcome this difficulty or weakness psychologically so that they can go further.

The players on the Yakushi High School baseball team, especially the sophomores and third-graders on their team.

I am not confident in my bones!

The stronger their opponents are, the more uncertain they are about themselves.

With their strength and talent, are they really qualified to compete for victory against these opponents?

When this uncertainty comes up, their performance on the pitch will inevitably suffer.

If it weren't for having an ace like Li Lei.

With so many uncertain points in their team, it is estimated that they have been eliminated a long time ago.

And in the coming days, these players on the pharmacist high school baseball team will inevitably encounter some teams that are scheming against them.

It may not have mattered before, because the opponent didn't know about them, and they could still play to the advantages of the dark horse team.

is the so-called indiscriminate punch to kill the master!

In the face of the offense of the Yakushi High School baseball team without any rules, there are not many teams that can withstand it.

But this can only be a momentary prestige.

What about later?

If they want to go on for a long time, it is definitely not enough to rely on such small means, they must strengthen themselves.

In addition to ball skills and physical fitness, as well as basic baseball training.

The self-confidence of the players is also a very important link.

Only when the players are confident enough can they have that feeling on the pitch.

They can defeat any opponent!

Although the former Yakushi High School baseball team has played a variety of opponents.

Even the nationally famous Cosmos team has now become their underdog.

In that sense, they've done really well and their confidence has been built.

But from the perspective of the superintendent of the thunderstorm, he believes that those alone are far from enough.

Although they have beaten many opponents before, none of the opponents they have beaten before are among the top peers in the country.

Especially the existence of almost the first person in the country.

Maybe someone is close in strength, but most of the players on the Yakushi High School baseball team obviously have no way to realize this.

They didn't know that their opponent was the first person in the country, so naturally they wouldn't have too much understanding.

Defeating Takumi Fujima is different.

This is the real number one in the country, after all, he is the captain of the U17s, and this ranking is unmatched by anyone.

There was a sense of extravagance in the heart of the overseer.

If even this opponent is concerned, they can cut each other down.

How do players on the Yakushi High School baseball team feel?

They didn't dare to shout before to dominate the country, for them, I'm afraid it's not a fantasy.

"Only by breaking the mountains above your heads can you truly stand on the top of the mountain......"

The superintendent of the thunder is full of expectations for Akiba's performance.

Akiba herself has similar feelings.

So he is also worried about the team's victory or defeat, but he obviously wants to know what kind of ball will be thrown by the first pitcher in the country?

In Akiba's expectant gaze, the opponent threw a mediocre goal.

"It's so slow!"

The moment she saw that ball, Akiba's eyes straightened.

He was incredulous.

Based on the information they had gotten earlier, plus the footage of the game they had watched earlier.

The other side is clearly not such a pitcher.

Takumi Fujima's ball speed, although not the top among his peers, is definitely much better than that of ordinary pitchers.

The fastest ball speed can reach 145 km/h, and the average ball can often be thrown at a speed of 140 km/h.

Crush more than 99 percent of high school pitchers.

And his fast ball is also notoriously fast and accurate......

The reason why he was able to become the ace of the national youth team is largely because of this.

His fundamentals are very solid, and he basically doesn't make mistakes on the court.

There is a Yang Sun-sin in Tokyo, who is known as a precision machine for pitching!

Takumi Fujima is a bit like him, except that his pitching speed is faster, reaching a terrifying 140 kilometers or more.

You must know that Yang Sunsin's ball control is about 130 kilometers on average.

The 10-kilometer gap has evolved into two outcomes.

The friends of the pharmacist high school baseball team have all known these things before today's game.

So when Akiba saw this slow ball, his eyes straightened.

He was a little confused, what was the purpose of the other party?

What exactly does the other side want to do?

Although she was unsure, Akiba didn't intend to let go of such an opportunity.

Under the guidance of the Thunder Collector, it's not just the monster Thunder City of their team.

The pharmacist high school baseball team, several first-year shooters, are very active offensively.

Seeing a good opportunity, it is impossible for them not to make a move.

After Akiba saw this ball, he also had exactly the same thought.

Even he didn't have time to make up his mind, his body had already taken the first step to act.

They have already honed this kind of thing as swinging a stick into their instincts.

When you see an opportunity arise, you will never be relentless!

Akiba took advantage of the situation and swung the bat in his hand with all his might.

"No matter what you have in mind, I'm going to blast this ball out!"

As long as he swings his stick with enough power!

Even if the opponent's pitch hides something, he can blast the ball far away.

If you can get a home run, of course, it's the best.

Even if they don't win a home run, it's not much to lose for them.

Instead, they hit the ball to the outfield, which can better verify their swing and attacking strength.

These thoughts flashed through Akiba's mind almost instantly.

Having made up his mind, he never hesitated any longer.

"Ping!"

Almost instinctively, he swung the baton solidly on the flying baseball, and knocked the white baseball out of the air.

The white baseball soared into the sky and flew towards the distant sky.

Akiba spread the bat in his hand and ran to first base as fast as he could.

If this ball turns into a home run!

Not only did he get their team off to a good start, but personally, he would have taken a completely different path from now on.

Just when Akiba was thinking about this, the white baseball that flew high suddenly fell.

Akiba's and Yakushi High School baseball team supporters, as well as those players in their lounge area, all had horror in their eyes!

Inexplicably, they felt that this scene was extremely familiar.

As if they've seen it many times before!

The white baseball fell vertically and landed in Takumi Fujima's glove.

"Smack!"

"Out!"

One person is out, no one is on base.

The rest area of the Yakushi High School baseball team, as well as the supporters of their team in the stands, all gasped.

They even felt their backs, cold sweats coming out.

It feels horrible!

They really don't want to believe it, but they can't help it.

Because that's what it is.

"It's exactly the same as Li Leisan!"

"Magic Ball!"

"I didn't expect that Fujima's predecessor would also use magic balls?"

The friends of the pharmacist high school baseball team looked at each other one by one.

There was a look of disbelief in their eyes.

That look seemed to say, how could there be such an outrageous thing?

However, all this really happened in front of them.

The contestants inevitably set their sights on Li Lei.

They didn't know why, they just wanted to see Li Lei.

"It's not a big deal, it's clear. It should be that the baseball spins and the pitch doesn't look fast, but the actual spin speed is very fast! It's easy to hit such a high-flying ...... the way you play straight balls."

Li Lei's magic pitching is actually based on a similar principle.

They are not immortals, how can they be exactly the same when they pitch, they still use baseball spin.

Takumi Fujima has precise ball control, and he can swing the baseball thrown out like an arm......

It's not difficult to do that.

Of course, it also depends on who the opponent is!

After all, this is not the pitching skills that Takumi Fujima has honed with great effort, and he has not spent as much effort as Li Lei.

Naturally, he would not be able to do what Li Lei did, and he would do it to most of the beaters.

He can only find those fighters who have solid basic skills and accurate strikes.

Akiba is undoubtedly a good boy.

He's honed it like a textbook.

That's what gave Fujima a chance!

"This guy's personality is really as bad as ever!!"

Although he hadn't fought much before, Li Lei still knew a little about Takumi Fujima.

This guy relies on his accurate ball control, his pitching speed is not slow, and he has mastered several variations.

Often mimics the pitches of other pitchers, especially opponents.

Use this to blow the confidence of your opponent!

If the opponent's pitch is affected because he does so.

Then it will be a lot easier for them to win the game.

Also because of his bad taste, this guy has a very interesting nickname.

Copy pitcher, Takumi Fujima!

"Second bat, outfielder, Li Lei!"

In today's game, Li Lei can pitch on the court.

His physical exertion was indeed very high, but it was not to the point of collapse.

But as people guessed, Li Lei had no way to shoot the whole court today.

The attitude of the superintendent was very resolute.

Although he also knew that the beginning was extremely important, he preferred to save Li Lei for the last few games to guarantee the bottom.

If Li Lei stood on the pitcher's mound at the last moment, no matter what kind of situation their team was at the time, everyone's performance would be much more positive.

So even if they fell behind, the Superintendent of Thunder Treasure thought that they had a chance to catch up.

This is something that no one else has.

Although he did not become a starting pitcher, Li Lei still served as the team's second baseman.

Their team's style is now basically mature.

As long as it remains the way it is, the team will have a good fighting power.

In this case, the order of Li Lei's strikes is naturally not good, and it is easy to adjust.

And his blow is becoming more and more important for the current Yakushi High School baseball team.

His contribution to the strike zone has been increasing compared to the past.

Li Lei himself was also very excited, he hadn't fought with such an acquaintance for a long time.

It reminded him of his time in the national youth team.
