Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 111 The true face of "Magic Ball"! (Second update)

Tens of thousands of fans in the stands opened their mouths in surprise.

The players on both sides of the competition were not doing much better at this time.

They were also stunned and confused.

Harada Masako was struck out?
This was not even the most astonishing thing. What made them find it unbelievable the most was the number displayed on the electronic screen.

99 ...

In fact, in terms of the speed of the ball thrown by human pitchers, this speed is not that uncommon.

Even many high school players only pitch at this speed.

But this ball speed was thrown by Xiao Fang Gu, which gave everyone a different feeling.

You have to know the feeling before Jiang Guxiao, but he is a speed maniac.

In the eyes of the fans at the scene, they would not be so surprised even if Akatsuki Furuya resumes his previous pitching speed.

But the current situation was something they never expected.

"Could it be that something went wrong somewhere?"

"Do you think it's possible that that first-grade kid suddenly failed, and that's why he threw the ball at such a speed?"

Fans of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team are a little confused at this time.

They even couldn't help but start thinking wildly. This was not entirely their fault. The scene in front of them was actually too fantasy for them.

Who could have imagined before that such an unscientific scene would appear on the court?
That Akatsuki Fanggu, actually knows how to use a speed change ball of this level?

Three people out, the offense and defense exchanged.

No matter how surprised the people at the scene were, the game still had to continue, and the players from the two teams returned to their own rest areas.

Players from the Seido High School baseball team gathered around Furiya Akira, asking excitedly.

"I didn't expect you to have such a magical speed ball?"

“What a surprise!”

"You should have used this skill long ago. This would have saved that boy Cheng Gongming from showing off his power on the field."

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team seem to have rediscovered their hope of winning the game.

Unsurprisingly, that hope ultimately comes down to their current pitching staff.

"How do you feel? There are still 6 outs left, can you hold on?"

There were also some who were attentive and started asking about Fang Guxiao's condition.

At this time, Jiang Guxiao stared at his palm in disbelief.

Not only did his teammates around him not expect the effect of that shot just now, but even Feng Gu himself was shocked.

When he was on the junior high school team, he used this kind of pitching to fight.

When she used it on the field before, Sheng Guxiao was also beating the drum in her heart.

Otherwise, he is not afraid.

The key is that their current opponents are not the same opponents that Fang Guxiao encountered when he was in junior high school.Instead, it is the top and most powerful club in the country, the Daocheng Industrial High School Baseball Team!
After actually fighting against these guys, Xiao Fanggu can better understand how terrifying the opponents in front of them are?
To put it bluntly, when using junior high school pitching, he took a gamble.

But before the supervisor told him to quit, Fanggu Xiao himself had no intention of quitting.Even if he loses the game, he will not back down.

Since the supervision and the team need it, he must pitch until the end of the game.

But when the ball was actually used, the effect was unexpectedly good...

This kind of ball is even more surprising than his fast straight ball!

"You didn't expect it yourself, did you?"

Miyuki Kazuya said with a smile.

Fang Guxiao nodded awkwardly.

"Soft balls are different from hard balls. Not only the material and hardness, but the most important thing is the stitching! With the hard ball, not only the speed of the pitch is faster, but the changes of the pitch are also more sensitive. Partner, you are going to be popular!" Like Akatsuki Furiya! Such a proud man basically became very popular as soon as he appeared on the team.

But precisely because they were at their peak when they debuted, it is extremely difficult to improve on this foundation.

Unlike other growth-oriented players, they can improve step by step.

But Fang Guxiao is obviously not the case.

He is like a rising superstar. The stronger his opponent is, the greater his potential will be.

Whenever people think he is in desperate situation, he can always bring people different surprises.

“Just thinking about it makes people’s hearts beat wildly!”

Being able to form a regular partner with such a pitcher, Miyukiichi also feels that he is extremely lucky.

If you also consider a certain pitcher in the stands.

Miyukiichi also felt that he must have saved the galaxy in his previous life. Otherwise, how could he, an ordinary catcher, be so lucky?
Meeting two such talented pitchers.

On the other side, in the dugout of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

Ever since their team captain Harada returned, the atmosphere in the entire team's dugout has been so low that it's suffocating.

Cheng Gongming muttered dissatisfiedly.

"What happened to that brat from first grade?"

He really thought about it a lot.

But he couldn't figure it out why the speed of the opponent's change-up ball was so different?

This is so unreasonable!

If there is a significant change in the amplitude of Fang Guxiao's arm swing, some of his balls are slower and some are faster.

It’s not that everyone can’t understand it.

Or there is something wrong with his posture when holding the ball, and the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team can also come up with corresponding strategies.

but.

There is neither of these.

There was a difference of more than 30 kilometers between the two ball speeds, but the amplitude of Fang Guxiao's arm swing and the way he held the ball remained unchanged.

This is so unreasonable!

Just when all the players on the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team were at their wits end.

Their supervisor, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"It's the fingers! Akatsuki Furuya didn't use the changeup method, but the straight ball method to throw the changeup. The moment he released the ball, he released two fingers and did not let his fingers hook the ball. This way, the pitch looks fast, but it actually doesn’t add the final power.”

The players of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team obviously understood what Director Kunito said.

But their faces were still full of astonishment.

"The throwing finger didn't hook the ball? Then how did he adjust his position?"

You must know that the last two fingers are not only used to press the weight of your whole body, but also to facilitate adjustment of direction.

Just like a car traveling at high speed, you must use a steering wheel to control the direction.

If Gu Xiao finally releases his fingers.

Then the speed of the ball he throws will naturally decrease, but at the same time, he has no choice but to position the empty ball.

"Probably practice makes perfect! Before entering high school, this kid couldn't use his best fast ball, so he probably used this method to fight. It's just a soft ball, so he can't fully utilize the power of his ball. Come out. He was not able to lead the team to the national level when he was in junior high school."

There was a rare hint of regret in Supervisor Kunito's tone.
