Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 139 The game is over, Qingdao Niubi! ([-]-in-[-])

"Ping!!"

The white baseball soared into the sky, and even the outfielder of the Cosmos team ran back as hard as he could.

When he ran to the back of the stadium, he could only watch helplessly as the baseball hit the stadium's protective net.

"Home plate!!!"

Although there was no runner on the base, Akatsuki Furuya still directly helped the team score a point with this hit.

Achieved a major breakthrough for their team from zero to one.

The score on the field became 1:0.

The supervisor of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team directly transformed into Shura after witnessing this scene.

"Damn it, what do you do for food?"

He was furious.

There were fans who were coming to the scene for the first time and looked at the Cosmos outfielder in confusion.

"Why don't they pick up the ball? After the baseball hits the wall, as long as it doesn't fly out directly, can't it be passed back?"

"You don't understand this! Those nets outside the stadium are added safety facilities to prevent baseballs from flying out. Their height far exceeds the official game walls. So as long as the ball hits the high part of the net , will default to a home run!"

"By the way, let me give you a little baseball knowledge. There are only boundaries in a baseball field, such as outside the first base boundary, outside the third base boundary, and behind the catcher. This is the real boundary! Home plate is along the first and third base lines. It extends infinitely, and there is no boundary at all. If someone can rush out of the field, pick up the ball, and pass it back in time, he can still get outs! But in a real game, once the baseball flies into the outfield stands, This kind of thing is impossible to happen! That’s why the ball flying into the stands is considered a home run by default.”

"Just like that ball just now, if it wasn't blocked by the net, I don't know where it would fly?"

A die-hard supporter of the Seido High School baseball team, extremely proud of himself.

They all looked at Jiang Guxiao with stars in their eyes.

"Is this first grader so awesome?"

"There is no doubt that he was not so awesome before joining the Seido High School baseball team!"

"Only after joining the Seido High School baseball team and accepting the baptism of a wealthy team, he could have such a radical change."

Speaking of this, the die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team all showed knowing smiles.

They like the Seido High School baseball team, except that the team is strong and often wins games, which makes them feel happy.

There are two other, very important reasons.

Even compared to the one just mentioned, the other two are the fundamental reasons why they like the Seido High School baseball team.

One of them is related to their own origins.

Many die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team are seniors who graduated from their school. Many of them were even members of the Seido High School baseball team before.

Emotionally, they naturally support their alma mater and team without reservation.

In addition to this, there is another very important reason that must be mentioned.

That is, they like the spirit of the Aomichi High School baseball team.

The performance of the Qingdao High School baseball team on the field is how the players of the wealthy team should perform on the field.

They are proud of it.

This is absolutely no bluff, it is the truest thought in their hearts.

On the field, Akatsuki Furiya's sudden home run caused quite a stir.

Not to mention the players of the Cosmos team, even the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team were very shocked by this result.

Fang Guxiao actually hit the ball?
Even the powerful third-year seniors of the Seido High School baseball team felt extremely troubled by Tatehiro Mi's pitch.

If it wasn't like this, they wouldn't spend so much time entangled with each other?
However, even in the face of such a terrifying opponent, Jiang Guxiao defeated the opponent cleanly...

This made them marvel.

As the main players of the Seido High School baseball team, the second and third grade players of the Seido High School baseball team can be said to have watched Akatsuki Fukitani grow up step by step.

From being immature when he first joined the team, to now he is able to stand alone on the court...

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team truly witnessed the hard work of Akatsuki Furuya.

But even if he worked very hard, from the perspective of the second and third-year players on the Seido High School baseball team, their estimate of Akatsuki Fukitani's strength was still relatively conservative.

Even this first-year student showed unparalleled talent on the court.

After all, his time with the team was still very short.After all, the training he received in the team was not that much...

Of course, the players of the Seido High School baseball team don't think that their junior students can catch up with them now, let alone surpass them.

Of course, this is limited to strikes and overall performance.

If they were to compete in pitching, Akatsuki Furuya, as a super dark horse, would definitely be ahead of them by several blocks.

That was what they thought before. Now, the second and third grade seniors on the Qingdao High School baseball team really feel that they may be a little self-righteous.

Why do they think that this first-year monster student's hitting ability on the court must not be as good as theirs?

Isn't this scene before them a slap in the face to all of them?

The core second- and third-year baseball players of the Seido High School baseball team had no way to deal with the pitching of their opponent in today's game.

If it weren't for Akatsuki Furuya's outstanding performance on the mound...

I don’t know what the current result is?

It is precisely because of the help of this first-grade monster that the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team are able to fight back and forth with their opponents...

This is not counting.

Just when the strong second- and third-year baseball players on the Seido High School baseball team had nothing to do with Hiromi Tate's pitching.

It was this first grader who suddenly stood up, aimed at the opponent's straight ball, and hit the ball directly!

Helped their team to take the lead by one point.

Simply talking about the comparison of strength between the two, Fang Guxiao actually doesn't have any advantage.

This is not because they are belittling themselves, but an indisputable fact...

Simply looking at Akatsuki Fukutani's hitting ability, it's actually not easy for him to knock out Hiromi Tate's pitching.

However, even under this comparison of strength, Jiang Guxiao still chose the right time to take action decisively...

This character, as well as his terrifying striking power, contributed to the emergence of this point.

You know, the players of the Qingdao High School baseball team are not in good shape at all.

However, under such extremely unfavorable circumstances, they still hit the ball and led their opponents by one point.

And this opponent is Team Cosmos, Kiryu Osaka!

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team have a surge in confidence...

Their opponent was Team Cosmos, the runner-up in Koshien last year.

Even if the Cosmos team's lineup this year is different from last year, there is a gap.

They were also the top giants in the country for the first time, a team in the top eight or even the top four of Koshien.

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team were able to fight back and forth against such an opponent despite their extremely negative physical condition.

Wait until their bodies fully recover...

Even the members of the Qingdao High School baseball team are afraid to think about how they will perform on the field.
Think about it, it will be very exciting.

The game went on like this. Sawamura Eijun pitched three games in total and only lost one point in total.The second and third grade seniors of the Seido High School baseball team are not idle either.

When they stood in the strike zone for the third time, they played against their opponents and scored two points in one go.

Ryosuke Kominato, Jun Isashiki, and Tetsuya Yusei, the three hitters hit three consecutive hits.

The final result was a well-timed two-run hit.

At the end of the 7th inning, the boys of the Seido High School baseball team, despite being in extremely poor health, still beat the Cosmos team 3:1.

Not to mention the members of the Qingdao High School baseball team, they found this result unacceptable.

Even the crowds around the stadium who were members of the Qingdao High School baseball team were completely dumbfounded.

They looked at the Qingdao players in disbelief, their eyes full of confusion and confusion.

"Is it so fierce?"

They don't understand it, but it is what it is.

At this time, the Qingdao High School baseball team was so strong that their own scalps felt numb.

Team Space's supervisor, Matsumoto, finally had enough.

A player on the Seido High School baseball team has just finished hell training.

In the second half of the game, all the main players on their team were shaky.

It gives people the feeling that if one is not good, they may fall to the ground directly.

However, this is a group of players who look extremely tired and unreliable.

On the court, it was the Universe team that was suppressing them.

So far, the Cosmos team has not only failed to take any advantage, but is still two points behind.

At this time, Director Matsumoto no longer cared about preserving his strength. He put all the secret weapons of their team on the field.

Originally, for this practice match, Director Matsumoto didn't want to use their method of keeping the team at the bottom.

On the one hand, they are powerful and there is no need.

On the other hand, we also consider that there is no airtight wall in the world.

Once they are in the practice game, they will use their own methods to keep the bottom of the box.

That might leak the secret.

The reputation of Team Cosmos is of course far-reaching.

Their competitors cannot be unknown people.

If nothing else, let’s just talk about last summer.

The proud Cosmos team lost to their old rival, the Sibang High School baseball team.

A smart person can never stumble twice on the same stone?
The reason why Director Matsumoto and his disciples have prepared so many tricks to suppress the situation is so that they can teach each other a good lesson when they encounter Xibon again.

but now.

Director Matsumoto and his disciples no longer care about this at all.

The game against the Xibang High School baseball team is of course very important.

But they absolutely cannot lose the game in front of them.

You must know that the Qingdao High School baseball team has just gone through hell's special training. They can perform at [-] to [-]% of their strength, which is already considered good.

If they can't even defeat the Seido High School baseball team like this.

Not to mention, they wanted to take revenge for last year.

Director Kataoka also sent Kawakami, their team's last pitcher, onto the field at the last moment.

Kawakami encountered a huge challenge and lost two points in two games.

finally.

The score between the two sides was fixed at 3:3.

After nine rounds of hard work, the two sides shook hands and made a draw.

Supervisor Matsumoto was naturally dissatisfied with this result.

Facing a Qingdao High School baseball team that was not in perfect condition, they only ended up in a tie with Qingdao when their trump card was exposed?

How could Supervisor Matsumoto be reconciled to this?

Of course, don't give up.

When the final result was settled, Director Matsumoto actually breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew very well that if they did not recover the score at the last moment of this game, what would it mean?
To put it bluntly, the blow to their team's players was absolutely devastating.

Although the current result is not perfect for the players of the Osaka Kiryu High School baseball team, it is not completely unacceptable either.

At the very least, their offense in the final stage was remarkable.

When they wanted to chase points, they performed extremely well.

The game is completely over and the two sides separate.

Director Matsumoto had already put away the ferocious smile on his face that was almost like a devil.

"Mr. Kataoka, I really want to congratulate you! Not to mention how rare a super genius like Furitani-san is. Even your other first-year pitcher is..."

As expected, Director Matsumoto spoke highly of the two first-year pitchers of the Aomichi High School baseball team.

From their perspective, this is also their biggest gain in this industry.

In the past, Team Cosmos did not need to regard Qingdao as a friendship partner as an opponent.

Although the players of the Seido High School baseball team are not bad at all.

But compared with them, the overall strength of the Qingdao High School baseball team is still not good enough.

But now, with the strong addition of two first-year pitchers, the Seido High School baseball team has been completely transformed.

When they arrive at Koshien in the future, they will definitely bring a lot of trouble to Team Cosmos.

Director Kataoka originally wanted to say a few words.

Of course the other party has gained something.

The Osaka Kiryu players learned a lesson in this practice match.And they also found out in advance the trump card of the Qingdao High School baseball team...

But compared to them, the players of the Seido High School baseball team have gained much more.

To put it bluntly, this game not only confirmed Akatsuki Furuya's status as the ace, but also gave the players of the Seido High School baseball team a huge confidence that is difficult to describe in words.

Whether it is facing the other two giants in Nishi Tokyo, or encountering other strong enemies in the Koshien arena in the future.

They both have enough confidence to fight each other until the end.

From this moment on, the players of the Seido High School baseball team had the confidence to be as strong as anyone else.

They are no worse than anyone!

"Can I have a chat with Furutani-san alone?"
