Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 162: When you meet a strong man, you become stronger! ([-]-in-[-])

"Qingdao! Qingdao!!!"

"Jiang Guxiao! Jianggu Xiao!!!"

In the stands, the Qingdao supporters were extremely excited.

Although the performance of the Mingchuan High School baseball team caused them a lot of trouble.

But so what?

Judging from the progress and results of the game, the team they support, especially the ace of the team they support.

Still firmly in control of the game.

"Don't think you guys are playing well. You can't turn things over with just one pitcher!"

"The person standing in front of you is the champion of the Kanto Conference, the top wealthy Seido in the country!!"

As fans of the Seido High School baseball team, they did not play the game in person.

But they still have something to be proud of.

Who allows the team they support to firmly hold the initiative in the game on this field?
On the other hand, although their opponents were not dejected, they were completely defeated.

But in terms of feel, it’s not much different.

In the stands, there were only a few supporters of the Mingchuan High School baseball team.

When Akatsuki Fukitani struck out three powerfully, the players on their team, as well as the supporters of their team, all acted dumb.

They couldn't make a single sound.

They were just stupid, looking at their opponents with empty eyes.

"Hehe, you know how powerful you are, right?"

"I'm not bragging. If this young boy in our team really gets angry, we ourselves will be afraid..."

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao, a group of players shook their heads and sighed.

To be honest, even if they are put into the other party's position, Qingdao's friends still feel that it is too difficult for them!
Facing the ball thrown by Akatsuki Fukitani, it is already good to be able to remain calm.

On this basis, what else do you want to do?

That's basically like having a sweet dream in broad daylight.

Not at all realistic!
On the other side, the Mingchuan High School baseball team suffered a heavy blow.

The supervisor of their team looked up at the huge electronic scoreboard, with a trace of despair in his eyes.

In all conscience, the pitching of their team's ace is definitely not bad.

The current score is only 1:0.

The Qingdao High School baseball team definitely has advantages, but it is by no means as big as people think.

However, even so, the supervisor of the Mingchuan High School baseball team knew in his heart that they might not be able to hold on for long...

"The level of the two sides is really different! No matter how reliable Shun Chen is, he is only one person."

On the other hand, the Seido High School baseball team has a lot of great players.

Akatsuki Fukutani on the mound, and all the power bats in the strike zone.

"It's all our fault. If it weren't for our lack of strength, would it be Student Yang?"

The players of the Mingchuan High School baseball team are obviously aware of this problem.

Their words were full of guilt.

"Don't be stupid. If it weren't for you, how could I have fought until now? And the game is not over yet. Why do you look like you have lost the game?"

Yang Shunchen has a different attitude from everyone else on his team.

There was no trace of discouragement in his eyes.

Some are just burning fighting spirit.

Although due to his personality, this kind of performance in him is not as obvious as in others.

But who are the friends on the Mingchuan High School baseball team?

They spent time with Yang Shunchen day and night, and their understanding of their ace had even penetrated into their souls.

To put it bluntly, although their skills cannot keep up with their own ace, their understanding has gradually caught up with their own ace.

"Are you excited to play against such an opponent?"

Although it was a question, there was certainty in the tone of the Mingchuan baseball team player.

"Of course! This is the baseball I imagined!!"

Although until now, Yang Shunchen has played many games with his teammates on the team.

But he still had to say that the games they played before were simply children's play...

Even if the opponent has some strength, it is completely different from what Yang Shunchen imagined in his mind.

Until today, playing games with the Seido High School baseball team.

Only then did Yang Shunchen find out how he felt watching TV back then.

"It's this kind of opponent, this kind of atmosphere..."

"We're only one point behind, let's go all out!!"

Yang Shunchen's entire leadership style seems to be different from before.

He became more active and proactive...

That feeling is like leading the team to accomplish incredible feats.

"it is good!"

"Get three outs first and then talk..."

Under the leadership of Yang Shunchen, other players on the Mingchuan High School baseball team have also changed.

They no longer dwell on the score, but devote themselves wholeheartedly to the game.

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao.

The faces of Miyuki Kazuya and Chris were not very good-looking.

Others may not notice.

But these two players from the Seido High School baseball team knew it very well.

They already have complete insight into the entire Mingchuan High School baseball team.

Because of this, they knew that unlike everyone else, this game was probably not over yet.

"With such an ace, you can't be careless until the last moment of the game! It's really difficult!!"

Chris rarely utters this comment.

From this, it is not difficult to see how difficult their opponent today is?
"If I have the chance to partner with that guy, it will be very interesting! Hehe!!"

Miyukiichi also spoke.

The game came to the bottom of the third inning, and the Seido High School baseball team went on offense.

The first one to step into the batter's box was Yoichi Kuramochi, the number one player on the Aomichi High School baseball team!

"Damn it, the supervisor gave such instructions before the game, but in the end there was no performance."

Faced with such a result, it was difficult for Kuramochi to forgive himself.

So after he stood in the strike zone, he immediately put on an all-out posture.

The desire to fly the ball directly was expressed clearly.

"Looks cunning, like a delinquent! But if you look closely, you will be surprised to find that Qingdao, a second-year guy, is not that difficult to understand."

Even Mingchuan's main catcher has seen through Kuramochi's plan.

Not to mention, the ace of their team.

Yang Shunchen looked at it carefully and clearly.

"Do you want to hit the ball out so much? Then I will help you!"

"Whoosh!"

The white baseball came roaring, and the ball was no longer in the corner, but lower in the center.

In other words, this is also the position where Kuramochi is best at striking.

His eyes suddenly became brighter.

Originally, Kuramochi wanted to wait. Even if he desperately wanted to hit the ball, Kuramochi would not act rashly when he knew that his opponent was extraordinary.But now, things are different.

The opponent actually chose the position he is best at playing. This is simply asking for death!
As the top tyrant of Chiba Prefecture, how could Kuramochi let go of such an opportunity?

He held the bat tightly with both hands, waited for the ball to approach, and swept the bat away unceremoniously.

"This genius has no record of making mistakes with the ball in this position!"

Kuramochi is bragging!
So what about there?
As long as he can really hit the ball, no one will mind even if he brags.

Instead, it only compliments his confidence.

Just when Kuramochi was full of confidence and waiting to receive everyone's praise.

"Ping!"

The ball he hit did not fly to the outfield of the stadium as he imagined.

The baseball only flew forward a dozen meters!

Mingchuan's first baseman ran forward a few steps and firmly caught the ball in his glove.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

One out, no one on base.

With just one ball, Kuramochi Yoichi was eliminated.

Even if you look at this scene from the perspective of an audience in the stands, the scene is quite explosive.

Not to mention, the players in the Qingdao rest area.

The players in the rest area were silent.

As fellow members of the Seido High School baseball team, they were much more shocked than the audience in the stands!

The position where the ball was shot just now was the position where Kuramochi was best at hitting.

This kind of ball is actually missed?

Chris' words hit the nail on the head, "It should be one to half a ball higher than Kuramochi's best hitting position!"

Is it because of this that the baseball that is knocked out will eventually become an ordinary fly ball?
"Can anyone really master ball control to this extent?"

All the players on the Qingdao High School baseball team looked at each other.

Even Kawakami, who is extremely good at controlling the ball in their team, would never be able to do this.

You must know that Kawakami's ball control is not limited to their Aomichi High School baseball team, but even if you look at the entire Tokyo, it can be counted.

But even so, Kawakami can at most divide the strike zone into squares.

Higher levels cannot be achieved through hard work!
"Although I don't want to admit it, our opponent has indeed reached the pinnacle in terms of ball control."

"Even if we are very good at playing the game, when we play against this man, we still have to put a question mark in our minds!"

Players have to do this.

But at the same time, the guys on the Seido High School baseball team also understand.

Once they were in a duel with Yang Shunchen, such thoughts came to their minds.

The probability that they can hit the ball is even lower.

Even Ryosuke Kominato, known as the devil hitter, encountered difficulties when he stepped into the strike zone for the second time.

Kominato Ryosuke's reliability on the Aomichi High School baseball team can basically be equated with their captain.

He couldn't hit a home run though!

But when he stood in the strike zone, his blow to the opponent's pitcher was accompanied by a certain amount of magic damage.

Whether it's the fans in the stands or the friends in the dugout.

When the team encounters difficulties, I also hope that Ryosuke Kominato can step forward.

Unfortunately, although Kominato Ryosuke pestered the opponent for six goals, he was eventually tricked by the opponent and hit a bad goal.

This is also impossible.

Because Yang Shunchen controlled the ball so accurately, the referee's confidence in his ball control has reached an unprecedented level.

Even a ball right next to the strike zone will be deemed a strike.

As a result, Kominato Ryosuke has no way to choose the ball.

He can only wait for the opportunity to take action!

But how could Yang Shun-chen, a precision machine, be so prone to making mistakes?
After waiting for several balls in succession, Kominato Ryosuke didn't even get the ball he wanted.

In this case, he was forced to swing the bat in his hand.

"Ping!"

The baseball flew behind the second baseman, which was a very good batting position.

But I don't know why?
The outfielder of the Mingchuan High School baseball team just stopped there and ran forward ahead of time.

So much so that when the baseball was falling, he accurately retrieved the baseball back into his glove.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

With two outs and no one on base.

The game came to the second half of the third inning, facing the strong performance of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Yang Sunchen, the ace of the Mingchuan High School baseball team, showed no signs of cowardice and instead pitched tenaciously...

So far, he's had two outs.

Once he can hold on to this game, the game between the two sides will probably remain stalemate...

"Stop dreaming! We have worked so hard just to see you, the ace of a dark polo team, show off on the court! Here, fly out!"

Even if it's a desperate situation with two outs and no one on base.

The mustachioed Isashiki Jun who had just stepped onto the strike zone still showed an indifferent expression.

He swung the bat with all his strength and swept away the flying baseball.

"Ping!"

The moment the baseball was knocked out, Yang Shunchen's eyebrows inevitably moved.

His pitch just now was merciless at all!
The angle of baseball pitching is extremely tricky. Even if the opponent guesses the position of his pitching in advance, it will still be difficult to hit the ball if he does not change his position in advance.

Unexpectedly, it was such a tricky ball. The third batter of the Qingdao High School baseball team still swept the ball away with an extremely awkward posture.

"Damn it!"

Yang Shunchen's eyes followed the ball as it flew high into the sky, and then fell from the high sky again!
Outfield! ! !

Looking at the direction in which the baseball fell, Yang Shunchen's heart was severely pinched.

If this ball lands, then their next situation will be difficult to resolve.

At this time, a young man ran over and once again caught the baseball in his glove before falling.

"Snapped!"

"Out!"

"Three people out, switch offense and defense!!"

At the end of the third game, the score on the field was still 3:1.

Just now, die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team couldn't help but celebrate their victory.

They never expected that something that they thought was a sure thing would happen unexpectedly.

In this way, the game came to the first half of the 4th inning.

The offense of the Mingchuan High School baseball team.

Their team's hitters stood in the strike zone for the second time.

And what about Qingdao?

They also gave up their original plan to change pitchers and ordered Jiang Guxiao to continue playing!
