Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 200 Qingdao seniors’ views on Jiang Gu!

After the game, Sawamura Eijun has been depressed.

At the beginning, because the surrounding environment did not allow it, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team did not take this matter too seriously.

But they walked all the way, even until they got to the bus, and the young man still didn't say a word.

As a result, the friends of the Seido High School baseball team can no longer speak even if they want to.

"Why do you pretend to be so profound here?"

The first to attack was Kuramochi, Sawamura Eijun's roommate.

He slapped Sawamura directly on the back of the head.

It was precisely this slap that abruptly pulled Sawamura out of his own world.

The young man raised his head and looked around.

There was still deep confusion in his eyes.

"When senior is talking to you, pay attention, or I'll beat you up next time!"

Seeing his performance like this, Kuramochi was extremely dissatisfied.

Sawamura Eijun was more or less afraid of this senior who was in his dormitory and had a bad temper.

He subconsciously turned his head to the side and said with a wry smile.

"Did you shake that guy's hand?"

Hearing Sawamura Eijun's question, all the friends shut their mouths obediently.

Everyone could guess who the guy Sawamura was talking about was right away?

Seeing the friends around them, they all fell silent.

What Sawamura didn't understand yet, his friends probably already understood his question.

Zechun suddenly smiled bitterly.

"Turns out everyone has noticed. I thought I was the only one who noticed."

The man they were talking about was actually Todoroki Raiichi, the monster on the Yakushima High School baseball team.

As far as today's game is concerned, this monster from the Yakushima High School baseball team has caused a lot of trouble for their friends from the Seido High School baseball team.

So far, everyone is very impressed by him.

As for the handshake Sawamura mentioned.

Of course, the other partners of the Seido High School baseball team have also noticed.

It's just that they weren't as impressed as Sawamura.

Sawamura is different.

Compared to other members of the Seido High School baseball team, Sawamura Eijun is obviously more concerned about Todoroki City.

Don't look at this guy, he's just a freshman on the Seido High School baseball team.

Even his presence in the team is not particularly strong.

But in fact, since Sawamura became the main player of the Aomichi High School baseball team, he has never disappointed on the pitcher's mound.

Although he has no way to crush his opponents all the way like the ace Jiang Guxiao, without giving them any chance to react.

But he also used his own way to help the team win many games.

If he hadn't performed like this, the friends and supporters of the Qingdao High School baseball team would not have compared him with Akatsuki Furigu, saying that they were the two freshmen of Qingdao's first grade, the twin stars.

If you were to change someone else, for example, if Kawakami and Akatsuki Furuya were newcomers in the same grade, then I'm afraid no one would put them together.

However, it was Sawamura who suffered a huge stumble when facing Thunder City. He was directly hit a home run and even collapsed.

This inevitably caused a heavy blow to Sawamura's young heart.

His level of attention to Honglei City has naturally changed.

The moment he held Hongleishi's hand, the hard texture hit his heart instantly.

The players on the Seido High School baseball team have a lot of calluses on their hands because they train very hard. But Sawamura has never found any teammate on their team to be like that guy.

Honglei Shi didn't just have calluses where his fingers and palms were connected, his entire hand was surrounded by calluses.

Those calluses are as hard as the stones on the roadside, which makes people feel cold.

And the calluses are so worn that they shine!

What kind of practice does it take to hone this?

Just thinking about it, Sawamura felt hugely shocked.

"For a boy who hasn't experienced much in high school, the amount of practice that boy put in is really amazing!"

Just when everyone fell into silence, Fang Guxiao suddenly spoke.

After hearing what their ace said, the friends from the Qingdao High School baseball team immediately set their sights on him.

They were very curious about how Akatsuki Fanggu, who was also a first-year monster, would evaluate another monster.

Sawamura is no exception.

In their team's previous games, although he was not as strong as Akatsuki Fanggu, overall, both of them successfully completed the tasks assigned to them by supervision and the team.

As a first-year freshman, in terms of performance on the court, the gap between him and Akatsuki Fanggu doesn't seem to be that big.

But that won’t work for today’s game!

Although the gap between the two of them was not big before, in this game, Fang Guxiao was as good as ever.

No matter what tricks the Yakushima High School baseball team came up with to target him, Akatsuki Fukitani easily resolved them.

His ball speed and his effortless performance on the mound left a deep impression on everyone present.

As a first-year monster, his reputation was not affected in any way by this game.

The same goes for the Yakushima High School baseball team's Tonraichi.

Although they ultimately lost the game, Honglei City's performance in the strike zone still left a very deep impression on people.

Anyone who has seen that terrifying swing once will probably never forget it.

Only Sawamura, after that game, his outstanding performance was completely ended.

After this, I'm afraid no one will compare him to Feng Guxiao.

The two have widened the gap.

Sawamura Eijun has obviously noticed this, so he is even more eager to know what Akatsuki Fukitani thinks of this issue.

For Sawamura, his goal has quietly changed without even realizing it.

He had a competitive relationship with Akatsuki Fukutani before, so his goal is naturally to use his pitching to defeat Akatsuki Fukutani, and then become the real ace of the Aomichi High School baseball team.

This is the boy's goal all along.

But now it seems that his goal is too high and cannot be achieved overnight.

Rather than aiming too high, it’s better to be down-to-earth.

First learn from Jiang Guxiao, gradually catch up with him, and finally surpass him!

That’s right, it’s beyond! !

Sawamura Eijun has such a character. Others don't look back until they hit the wall, but he never looks back even if he hits the wall.

As long as it's something he's determined about, no matter how difficult it is, he won't give up.

Becoming the ace of the Aomichi High School baseball team is just that.    He will never give up.

On the other hand, Jiang Guxiao, facing the probing eyes of all his partners, said very firmly: "But I don't think that the third-year seniors of our team are any worse than our opponents!"

This conclusion shocked everyone on the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Especially those third-year players, the admiration shown in their eyes almost turned into reality.

Unexpectedly, this proud first-year student would recognize them so much?

"Student Honglei City is able to achieve his current strength. His talent is on the one hand, but more importantly it is because of his practice. It is estimated that he has been practicing like a devil since a very early age. However, even so , and I don’t think that he sweats more in practice than our seniors. I haven’t joined the team for a long time, but in the three months since I joined, I have never seen anyone The seniors are lazy. In addition to studying, eating, and sleeping, they use almost all the time they can use."

"Compared with talent, it's hard to say. But if we really compete with hard work, our seniors will not lose to anyone. The reason why they have fewer calluses on their hands is because we have a complete system and will not practice stupidly. But this is absolutely nothing It's a shame. The seniors can still perform outstandingly on the field despite worrying about these things. This is the most gratifying thing."

Fanggu Xiao spoke eloquently for several minutes.

The guys on the Qingdao High School baseball team, especially the third-year seniors, looked at Akatsuki Fukitani completely differently.

How could he be an ordinary junior student? He was basically a close friend of these people.

"You boy, you are very discerning!"

Senior Mustache spoke first, and the other seniors followed suit.

They didn't know when they had gathered around Jiangu Xiao.

Chris and Miyuki stood aside, and they did not participate in the entire conversation.

However, it was precisely because they were not involved in the whole process that they understood better what kind of power Feng Guxiao had at this time.

"He has truly become the ace of our team!"

A team's ace is not just about their performance on the court.

In addition to performance, there is another very important thing that the ace must do.

That is to give the team players confidence and lead the team forward...

It's not that Jiang Guxiao didn't do well in this area before, it's just that his identity makes it difficult for him to do well.

For these players on the Aomichi High School baseball team, Akatsuki Furuya is just a latecomer, a newcomer to the team.

Even in a company, latecomers are promoted to company leaders because of their outstanding abilities. Old employees who joined the company at the same time as him, or even earlier, all need to adapt to this identity change.

Not to mention, their group of young players.

Old employees of the company may choose to take the initiative to compromise because they have to support their families.

The old men in the team have no such concerns.

A large part of the reason why wealthy teams are reluctant to let newcomers serve as the team's ace is because of concerns about this.

Compared to other teams, the atmosphere of the Qingdao High School baseball team may be slightly better.

But no matter how good their team's atmosphere is, the players are still human.

The second- and third-year players on the Seido High School baseball team will inevitably have thoughts about Akatsuki Fukutani, who came from behind.

Rationally speaking, with Gu Xiao's strength, it is almost logical to serve as the team's ace.

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team can naturally figure this out and are willing to cooperate.

But emotionally, can they accept it?

That's another story.

Now it seems that the seniors' recognition of Jiang Gu is still very high.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team actually know very well what exactly their team lacks now.

Akatsuki Fukitani's performance on the pitcher's mound is obvious to all.

Now, even the feeling that he is leading everyone is becoming more and more obvious.

Everyone, including the third-year seniors, has recognized the identity of Akatsuki Furi as the ace pair of the team.

Miyuki Kazuya suddenly turned his head and glanced at Tanba.

If there's anyone else in their team who might feel uncomfortable or unhappy about this, it's probably only their former ace, right?

Bald Danba saw Miyuki Kazuya's eyes and immediately stared back.

"Sorry, sorry!!"

The senior's eyes were so fierce that Miyuki subconsciously gave in.

"Did you think I would be angry?"

Although Miyukiichi also took the initiative to apologize, Tanba did not let him go just because of this.

"Senior, even if you are angry, it is natural!"

If your skills are not as good as others, you have to submit!

In baseball, this seems to have always been the case.

But who can really do it?

People are very complex beings, and the positive and negative energy in them is almost endless.

"With such a junior, there must be pressure!"

Tanba told the truth.

Of course, he didn't want to give up the ace position that he had finally obtained with great difficulty.

"But at the same time, I am also relieved! It is not because of escaping. If I can, I am still willing to be the ace of the team."

Before Tanba, the reason why he rejected the invitation from the junior high school student in the city and chose to join the Seido High School baseball team was because he didn't want to be someone's substitute. Even if that person is his best friend, even if that person is his long-term partner.

The combination of the two of them is even more dazzling than Cheng Gongming at this time.

He still chose Qingdao, just to become an indomitable ace.

Even now, his thoughts have not changed.

"That……"

Miyukiichi was about to speak but stopped.

If Senior Tanba thought this way and he breathed a sigh of relief, where would he start talking about it?

"I have also been an ace, but at that time I was a hindrance to my teammates on the team."

Danbo spoke very frankly, giving the impression that he was not talking about himself, but about other people's affairs.

"Although I still want to continue to be the ace, I don't want to hinder everyone. As long as everyone can advance to Koshien together, I will do anything you ask me to do. Even if it is to be a substitute for the first-year students!"

After Danbo finished speaking, the only sound of the car being driven could be heard in the entire carriage.

Apart from that, there was no other sound.

All the friends set their sights on Danbo.

"Haha, is this our trump card?"

"I thought your kid was going to be so depressed that he shut himself down, but I didn't expect you to be so tenacious!"

"Don't just keep it in words, you have to do it on the field too~"

Danbo never dreamed that those guys around him would eavesdrop.

Danba's little face immediately turned red.

"You guys, please stop it!!!"
