Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 136 The incomparable Feng Guxiao! ([-]-in-[-])

The game reached the 4th inning, and the score between the two sides was still 0:0.

The previous hell training had a great impact on the players of the Seido High School baseball team.So much so that they simply cannot show 100% of their strength on the court.

Some scoring opportunities were let go in vain because of this.

Of course, there is another very important reason for this, which is that the players of the Cosmos Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team are truly extraordinary!
Their ace, Guan Hiromi, looks like an evil ghost Shura, making his opponents extremely uncomfortable.

Coupled with Hiromi Tate's tricky pitching, even players on the Aomichi High School baseball team suffered setbacks one after another when facing off against the opponent.

This made all the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team feel very depressed.

However, in fact, their opponents were not much better.

The players on the Cosmos Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team were equally annoyed.

At the beginning, they may not have understood the idea of ​​their supervisor. I wonder why their supervisor was so confident that they would definitely win the game?
But as the game progressed, the players of the Cosmos Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team gradually discovered something fishy.

They were very surprised to find that their opponent seemed to be in something wrong.

These guys looked as if they had just run 5000 meters and had completely exhausted their energy.

To put it bluntly, maybe the players of the Seido High School baseball team came to play this game with them in an extremely negative state?
This makes the players of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team even more confused.

They really don't understand why the supervisor of the Qingdao High School baseball team did this?
It was only under the explanation of their own supervisor that these talented players of the Cosmos team understood what kind of Qingdao High School baseball team they were facing?

It is of course impossible to say that the players of Team Cosmos are not angry.

They were very angry.

The Qingdao High School baseball team actually uses their dignified Cosmos team as a tool to train their own team's players?

This is simply too much!

Due to the friendship between the two teams, they had no way to give up the game directly and chose to leave.

But after knowing the truth, the players of the Cosmos team decided to use their baseball players' methods to teach these guys on the Seido High School baseball team a lesson.

They must let the other party understand that Team Cosmos is definitely not something they can bully.

I have to admit that the players of Team Cosmos are very determined.

But just because they were determined enough, these Team Universe players soon discovered that things were not as simple as they imagined.

The first-year freshman named Fang Gu was far scarier than they imagined.

They can hit the super fast ball!
They can also hit the changeup! !
For today's game, the players of Team Universe believe that their preparations are sufficient.

After all, this is a practice game.If the opponent could not soar the ball speed to more than 150 kilometers, they would not need to invest so much energy at all.

There are still essential differences between practice games and formal games.

Team Universe players know this better than anyone else.

However, despite being so well prepared, they failed to take any advantage during the match against the Seido High School baseball team, that is, against the newcomer named Akatsuki Fukitani.

Even if they have thoroughly studied the opponent's two pitches, they can still come up with a third.

The scariest thing is not the falling ball, but the fact that Akatsuki Fukitani completely combines these three types of pitches.

In the fourth inning of the game, the batter of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team stepped into the batting box for the second time.

If they hit this round, they still failed to seize the opportunity and knock Fang Gu Xiao's ball away, helping their team score hits and points.

Even if Gu Xiao falls, he never leaves.

Even if Akatsuki Fukutani pitches until the end of the game, it will be difficult for these players of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team to seize the opportunity.

"Please give me a try. The other party is obviously at the end of its attack. Can you be more precise before striking?"

Director Matsumoto was very angry.

Furitani's pitching state has even him, the supervisor of the Cosmos team, having to give a thumbs up.

As the supervisor of the top wealthy club in the country, Matsumoto has seen many talented players.

Not only from their own team, but also from some strong opponents that the Universe team has encountered...

Even if the ball speed exceeds 150 kilometers, Supervisor Matsumoto has more say than other supervisors in the country.

Among his former disciples, there were some who could throw such terrifying ball speeds.

Among the opponents they encountered, similar guys also appeared.

There are definitely not many people who can have the experience of Supervisor Matsumoto.

It is precisely because of Director Matsumoto that he has enough understanding of players like Akatsuki Furiya.Only then did he understand better, what is a player like Fang Guxiao afraid of the most?
What they worry about most is actually their own physical strength.

For a high school player, no matter how horribly developed his body is, his body is not fully grown after all.

The height of high school students seems to be similar to that of adults, but they really compete for comprehensive qualities, such as strength, speed, height...

That's not a level at all.

Otherwise, large-scale sports events would not be divided into so many age groups.

Take large-scale competitions as an example. There is a separate level up to adults over 23 years old.

Jiang Gu is just a 15-year-old boy.

The other two off-speed pitchers that Director Matsumoto met were in similar situations. They were also [-] or [-] years old.

These teenagers rely on their energy to play the game.

When that energy is there, their performance is often particularly good.

But over time, the entire level of their pitching, especially their terrifying ball speed, which is called a stunt, will inevitably decline.

As a pitcher of the same type as them, Furitani is naturally no exception.

He also relied on his breath to support himself in continuously throwing super fast straight balls.

But this player looks quite weird.

He seemed to be very aware of his strengths and weaknesses, so he deliberately made some changes on the field.

He doesn't just pursue that kind of terrifying ball speed.

He also pays attention to physical strength and flexibility...

He also uses a changeup and a changeup that comes out of nowhere to confuse his opponents.

This is by no means a simple fastball pitcher.

"This guy is so mature, he's like a professional golfer."

Thinking of Director Matsumoto here, I felt sick in my heart.

No matter how fiercely he yelled at his disciples, Supervisor Matsumoto himself knew very well.

He was just urging everyone.

But the current situation that their team is facing cannot be blamed on his disciples.

The players of Team Universe are also very anxious.

Especially after their players entered the strike zone in the second round, their intention to knock out Akatsuki Fukitani's pitch was almost made public.

"It doesn't matter if you really can't tell the difference, just concentrate on playing one!" The players of Team Universe are still very good.

Even in a short period of time, they couldn't figure out how to throw a falling ball like Xiao Gu's?

But this didn't stop them from figuring out how to fight Jiang Guxiao.

"Ping!"

From the beginning of the 4th inning, the players of the Cosmos team seemed to gradually find the opportunity to hit Fangtani's pitch.

But it was not all smooth sailing, and they encountered severe challenges.

After the baseballs flew out, the fielders of the Seido High School baseball team finally got a chance to perform.

It's okay when they're not moving, and they're faster than a rabbit when they move.

Almost in the blink of an eye, they ran to the spot where the baseball landed and grabbed the ball.

"Snapped!"

Some simply catch the ball directly, while others pass the ball to first base and shut out the batter.

"Two are out, just feel free to vote!"

At this moment, the Qingdao High School baseball team on the field seemed to become a whole.

Seeing their opponents' performance, the eyes of all the players on Team Universe were almost red.

No matter what thoughts they had before?
At this moment, these players of Team Universe have clearly realized how difficult their opponents are to mess with?

"This is not the first time we have played against each other. Why haven't we found the players of the Seido High School baseball team to be so difficult before?"

A player from Team Cosmos said breathlessly.

As the game progressed, even the breathing rhythm of Team Universe players became abnormal.

"The opponent is also one of the top clubs in the country, and their team's supervision and training of the players are very thorough!"

"At this moment, these guys who are playing against you on the court are a hundred times more tired than you are."

Supervisor Matsumoto said seriously.

"Logically speaking, they should have made mistakes on the court long ago. But until now, they have not made any big mistakes. This shows that these guys have already developed their defensive instincts!"

Seeing the baseballs flying toward their own zone, these fielders on the Seido High School baseball team didn't even need to think.

Their bodies will naturally rush towards the baseball.

This is an ability that can only be honed through repeated practice.

"As for the former Seido High School baseball team, why wasn't it so scary?"

As Supervisor Matsumoto spoke, he turned his attention to Akatsuki Furiya, who had already scored two outs.

"The reason is very simple. Although the former Seido High School baseball team was already very outstanding, there was always a huge loophole in their team. It was precisely because of the existence of that loophole that the Seido High School baseball team was particularly prone to losing points. . When we score easily, we naturally don’t notice how tight Qingdao’s defense is?”

But it's obvious that the current Seido High School baseball team has completely changed.

Because of the emergence of the new ace, the huge hole in the Seido High School baseball team has been filled.

Only Qingdao like this has the qualifications to compete with the top wealthy families in the country.

For example, their Space Team!
Thinking of this, Director Matsumoto felt the anger in his heart rising again.

"You should try to cheer me up and don't embarrass Team Universe!!"

The famous Supervisor Matsumoto seems to have reached the limit of his patience.

It felt as if in the next second, he was going to rush onto the court and teach his disciples a solid lesson.

The batters on the batter's plate of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team clearly felt the wrath of their supervisor.

As a member of Team Universe, he certainly knew very well what exactly they should do on the court at this time?
They should strike without mercy and knock that little white ball away solidly!
But the question is, can they do it?
It's not like the players didn't work hard. They kept making various attempts just to hit Akatsuki Furi's pitch.

Even in the end, these proud players of the Universe team had to pin their hopes of playing ball on illusory luck.

They only attack changeups!

Or just attack Furiya Akira's speeding ball.

But even though they made such concessions, they still gained nothing when facing this monster newcomer from the first-year Seido High School baseball team.

That's right, there just wasn't a hit.

It seems that no matter what they do, the final result will not change in any way.

As the proud son of the Cosmos and a hitter on the field, of course he would not recognize this.

"We are all mortals. I don't believe it. I can't knock your ball away?"

As if showing great determination, the batter raised the bat in his hand above his head.

It looked like he was going to give it his all.

It feels like he's aiming for a super fast straight ball.

But Miyuki Kazuya, who was squatting in the catcher's position, was very keenly aware that their opponent seemed a little unusual.

Judging from the opponent's posture, he was indeed aiming for a super fast straight ball.

But looking at the position of the opponent's hand holding the bat, Miyukiichi was certain that the opponent was definitely not aiming for a speeding ball.

"The game has come to this point, and your mission is basically completed! Next, let's have a final explosion."

Seeing the code signal given by Miyuki Kazuya, Fang Guxiao felt a little reluctant.

Although he knew very well in his heart that after taking this step, it was indeed time to come to an end.

The cells in his body were screaming.

It is never a good thing to continue to invest.

But he really doesn't want to give up this stage, and he hasn't cast enough yet.

Perhaps because of the extreme unwillingness in his heart, the last three balls taken by Xiao Fang Gu were faster than the last.

"149 kilometers!"

“151 kilometers!!”

"153 kilometers!!!"

Three consecutive strikes and the batter was struck out.

Although the final ball speed did not exceed 155, which is the fastest ball speed of Xiao Gu.

But the ball speed of 153 kilometers was enough to shock the audience.

The die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team around the stadium were very satisfied.

"Under such circumstances, he can actually increase the speed of the ball to 153 kilometers?"

"Just wait, this guy will definitely create miracles!"
