Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 195 Protagonist! (-in-)

The Yakushi High School baseball team finally lost one point.

Sanada was on the pitcher's mound, staring blankly at the sun in the sky.

He knew in his heart that he shouldn't lose points at this time.

They only have one offensive opportunity left in the last game, and it will be difficult for them to catch up with just the three-point gap from before.

The score difference is now four points.

To put it bluntly, the probability of the Yakushima High School baseball team making a comeback is extremely slim.

Reflecting on himself.

Was the choice he just made wrong?

Although his pitch was eventually knocked out.

But Sanada doesn't think he did anything wrong.

Under the circumstances at that time, we tried every possible means to solve the problem of Qingdao's appearance.

As long as they can succeed, they can change the team's unfavorable situation to a large extent.

At this point in the game, they must have the courage to risk everything.

As for his own pitching.

Although it was not his peak state, he definitely shot seriously, and the quality of the ball was not bad.

But just such a ball was knocked away mercilessly by the opponent.

"I can only say that I am worthy of being the champion of the Kanto Conference and the top wealthy family in the country?"

at the same time.

In the dugout of the Yakushi High School baseball team.

Supervisor Todoroki Raizo unconsciously narrowed his eyes.

As a veteran on the court, he knows better than anyone else what the duel between the two means just now?

"This guy has a unique swing just like my silly son! He can also smell money in his bat."

Thinking of this, Todoroki Raizo suddenly smiled bitterly.

7:3, a full four-point gap.

For the Yakushima High School baseball team, this is basically a death sentence.

"The game has not reached the last moment, how do you choose?"

Supervisor Todoroki Raizo knew very well.

Even if he is the supervisor of this team, many things cannot be decided by him alone.

For example, at this time, what choices will the players of the Yakushima High School baseball team make on the field?

It's not up to him to decide.

It depends on the players, their own pursuit of baseball, and their own inner will.

To Todoroki Raizo felt very gratified.

The players on the Yakushima High School baseball team were a little stunned at first.

This tragedy was right in front of them, and they saw that they had no hope of winning.

The players cannot remain indifferent.

They will be distracted, stunned, and at a loss...

This is all very normal.

But then, a stronger fighting spirit burned in the eyes of these players.

It seems that if they don't fight until the last moment of the game, they will not be able to rest at ease.

Todoroki Raizo raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.

"You guys are really surprising!"

For players on the court, or even for anyone who wants to do something.

As long as you are determined to do it, success is possible.

If you do everything, you are only immersed in your own fantasies.

Do nothing.

Even if one day, the pie really starts to fall from the sky.

You can’t get it either!

What makes Supervisor Todoroki Raizo most satisfied is the mentality of his players.

No matter what, they fought hard to the end.

In the seating area of ​​the Qingdao High School baseball team, Qingdao's friends were obviously aware of the difficulty of their opponents.

"These guys seem to be invincible Xiaoqiang?"

"They are already so far ahead, how can they still maintain such fighting spirit?"

"So rare!"

Even Chris has a very high opinion of this opponent.

"They are definitely opponents that we should respect and even learn from."

While everyone was discussing, Fang Guxiao had been sitting on the rest chair.

There wasn't much expression on his face, he was just trying hard to adjust his breathing rhythm.

But that doesn't mean that he didn't listen to what his friends said.

On the contrary, he listened to all these words and listened very carefully and seriously.

The tenacity of the Yakashi High School baseball team also exceeded his expectations.

This is indeed an opponent worthy of their respect and admiration.

Fang Guxiao couldn't help but think of a rumor.

Originally, the protagonist of this world was not the Seido High School baseball team, but the Yakushima High School baseball team.

They are the original protagonist team!

This team's somewhat unexpected performance on the court seems to be reasonable.

After all, the protagonist never plays his cards according to common sense.

Not only that, their unexpected success rate is also the highest among all teams.

"As the ace of the team, why don't you express your opinion?"

While the others were discussing the matter in full swing, Jiang Guxiao sat calmly on the sidelines. He did not speak from the beginning to the end.

Miyukiichi also came to his side and asked with a smile.

He never forgets to remind his new partner.

The other partners of the Qingdao High School baseball team couldn't help but turn their heads to look at them after hearing the conversation between the two.

The friends obviously also want to know what Fang Guxiao is thinking at this time.

"I know that the opponent is very tenacious! But I firmly believe that if we are lagging behind now, the seniors will be the same, or even more tenacious than the opponent. As long as the game is not over yet, as long as the last out number has not yet appeared. Then I have to fight until the end! This is what I learned on the Aomichi High School baseball team!”

After hearing what Akatsuki Fukitani said, Miyuki Kazuya's eyes straightened.

It's not like he didn't know that Xiao Fanggu would occasionally say some inspiring words.

This is also one of the skills that an ace pitcher must have.

But he never expected that what Jiang Guxiao said would be so shocking.

The third-grade seniors’ eyes were red from the blood.

"Who did you learn this from?"

Facing Kazuya Miyuki's question, Akatsuki Fukitani behaved very innocently.

"Of course I thought of it myself. If I have to say who taught it, it would be my own insights under the supervision's words and deeds."

All the friends on the Seido High School baseball team felt their scalps go numb.

They, the onlookers, couldn't help but want to give this flattery a thumbs up.

The supervisor who was always strict in their eyes could not help but raise the corners of his mouth at this time.

"If you don't play baseball in the future, you can consider entering politics. I feel that you really have potential in this area!"

Kuramochi Yoichi said seriously.

Although the other friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team did not speak at this time.

But judging from the expressions of admiration on their faces, they probably had the same idea as Kuramochi.

"I really mean it!"

Jiang Guxiao felt that she had been wronged.

He really has no intention of flattering him, this is his truest feeling.

After he joined the Seido High School baseball team, his thoughts and perceptions about baseball have indeed undergone earth-shaking changes. But I don’t know why, but these friends on their team don’t seem to believe what he said.

No matter how sincere he said it, the result would be the same.

On the contrary, Director Kataoka, who was always strict, looked at him with much softer eyes.

The game on the field continues.

The pharmacist, who had regained his morale, did not choose to break the pot just because he lost that point.

Whether it's their ace Sanada or the other players on their team.

Each and every one of them tried their best to fight to the death with the players of the Seido High School baseball team.

Their fighting spirit is extremely strong, and their determination to win the game is also unmatched.

The third out count came quickly.

"Three out, exchange offense and defense!"

At the end of the second half of the eighth inning, the score on the court was fixed at 7:3.

In this way, the game came to the ninth inning, which was also the last inning of the game.

In the first half of the ninth inning, the Yakashi High School baseball team went on offense.

The guys from the Seido High School baseball team only need to score the last three outs to advance to the semifinals.

Although this round was not easy.

But the die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team in the stands still gave out deafening cheers.

From their perspective, they seemed to have seen the goddess of victory waving to them.

The huge gap of four points is enough to withstand any surprise.

It was only at this time that some fans discovered that Director Kataoka had worked so hard.

"You know, our ace hasn't returned to the mound yet."

Although there was a little accident during the match with the Yakushima High School baseball team.

They lost three points in a row in the 7th inning.

As a result, the great situation was not grasped in the end.

This is certainly a little disappointing.

But even in that crisis situation, they did not send their ace on the court.

What does this mean?

This shows that they still retain their strength.

Even if the opponent is a super dark horse that has defeated the top clubs in the country, it is just a small challenge for their Seido High School baseball team.

Overcame this challenge and finally won the game.

It's never been a problem for them.

"Keep up the good work!"

"Kawakami!!!"

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team, at this time, have really felt, what is a wallflower?

The attitude of these fans really changes at a moment's notice.

When the team was in danger and trouble before, they blamed scenes of supervisory inaction.

Until now, everyone still remembers it vividly.

But in the blink of an eye, the attitude of those fans took a 180-degree turn.

Even regarding supervision that did not act before, they have changed their tune and say that supervision is far-sighted.

"Fans are very simple. As long as we can win the game, they will support us! Even if we don't win the game in the end, as long as they see our efforts, they will sincerely bless us!!"

Jiang Guxiao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Fans are such a group of people. As long as there are no problems with the idol, their support is absolutely selfless.

"We can't let the fans down, let's go and win the game!"

Tetsuya Yuuki said.

These words reached the hearts of all the friends, and everyone cheered in unison.

"Yes!!"

The game came to the ninth inning, and they only needed three more outs to end the game.

Director Kataoka took a special look at Tanba.

Danbo has a strong fighting spirit. As long as he is sent on the field, he will fight his opponent to the end.

It's just that today's opponent is too evil.

So at this time, they basically have no chance to make a comeback.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

What if Danbo is replaced and he can't hold on to the situation?

Although there is still a real trump card to press the bottom.

But in that case, the impression left by the Aomichi High School baseball team would not be so good.

Everyone would take it for granted that, except for the ace named Akatsuki Fukitani, the other pitchers on the Aomichi High School baseball team are just decorations.

Not worth mentioning at all!

Once this idea becomes popular, it is hard to say whether it will be good or bad for the Seido High School baseball team.

If Sawamura and Kawakami are strong and perform steadily.

If the other party thinks so, not only is it not a bad thing for Qingdao, it may actually be a good thing.

But the problem is that Sawamura's performance is not stable, and Kawakami's pitching strength is not that strong.

Once the opponent sees through this, the deterrence the two of them can create on the court will be very limited.

With this in mind, Director Kataoka did not make any substitutions at the last minute.

Instead, Kawakami was asked to continue pitching.

As far as today's game is concerned, Kawakami's performance was not good.

But because of this, Kawakami actually has nothing to lose.

Might as well let him pitch until the end of the game.

Maybe things will turn around.

"First bat, third baseman, Todoroki-san!!"

Players from the Qingdao High School baseball team stepped onto the field one after another.

The leading hitter of the Yakushima High School baseball team also appeared on the batting box.

This young man seemed not to have considered the situation of their team at all.

His eyes were like those of a beast from ancient times, firmly locked on his opponent.

"Is it you in the end? I thought I could compete with the last pitcher!"

Honglei City laughed wildly.

"Jie Jie, Jie Jie Jie!!!"

His laughter was as harsh as ever.

Even the Seido High School baseball team is now in a position to win.

The moment they heard his laughter, many die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team subconsciously frowned.

Instinctively, they hated this monster boy.

"Come on! No matter who the opponent is, I will blast the ball away!!"

Can you change the team's unfavorable situation?

Even with Hongleishi's very few brain cells, he couldn't figure it out.

But one thing was very clear to him.

As long as he can blast the ball cleanly, their team has a glimmer of hope.

If he can't blast the ball away!

Then their hopes will become very slim.

"bring it on!!!"

The opponent's momentum is very scary.

Miyuki, who was squatting in the catcher's position, couldn't help but frown.

He was very surprised to find that Kawakami was a little afraid.

"The movements of the body are too stiff, and the expression on the face is not natural..."

Miyuki turned around and glanced at Todoroki City.

Does this opponent put so much psychological pressure on Ah Xian?
