Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 216 The obsession leading to Koshien!

In the battle meeting room of the Seido High School baseball team.

The players watched several games in Daocheng from beginning to end.

Watch and discuss.

Just gradually, the voices of everyone's discussions became lower and lower.

The friends soon discovered that during their discussions, they all seemed to be praising the advantages of Daocheng.

But next, they have to play against this team. If they can't find the opponent's weaknesses, how can they formulate a game strategy?

After the video was played, Chris took the notebook in his hand and analyzed it for everyone.

"Only four changeups were used in total, and even sliders and forkballs were used less than twenty. Generally speaking, straight balls were mainly used, and diagonal pitches resulted in the most outs."

"Not only that! Since that final, Daocheng Industrial's ace has never lost a point!"

Cheng Gongming already possesses the legendary undefeated golden body.

The guys from the Seido High School baseball team had ugly expressions on their faces.

They had played against Narimiya Naru before in the finals of the Kanto Conference, and they had a certain understanding of each other's strength.

Although they won in the end, through that game, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team also truly felt the strength of the other side.

It was an opponent who would win the game in a new game. The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team did not dare to pat their chests and guarantee that they would win the game.

Now, the other party seems to have become stronger!

The third-year seniors of the Seido High School baseball team lost to Inagi in last year's Nishi-Tokyo semifinals.

At that time, under the leadership of senior student Dong Qingguo, they were as powerful as a rainbow.

Almost everyone believed that they had a chance to hit Koshien last year.

But in the end, they met Cheng Gongming.

At that time, he was still a rookie on the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team and a first-year relief pitcher.

However, it was that guy who was messing around with the Seido High School baseball team's lineup.

Qingdao ultimately lost that game by one point.

Now, the opponent is stronger!

This made the third-year seniors of the Qingdao High School baseball team couldn't help but sigh.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the mustachioed senior frowned.

He took the initiative to ask and shouted: "Captain!"

Everyone in the room looked at the captain of their team.

The mustachioed senior smiled and asked: "As the only man who knocked out that guy's pitch before, do you think we can break the opponent's defense?"

Last year.

Although most of the batters on the Qingdao High School baseball team were fooled by Narumi Ming.

But here, not all perform well.

For example, Tetsuya Yuuki.

He was the only one who hit the ball and scored a double.

Later, the reason why he was able to become the new captain was that the team's supervisors and coaches even ignored the factors of his personality.

A large part of the reason for this is that Yuuki's performance in the strike zone left hope for Aomi.

If it weren't for that hit, Qingdao, the top powerhouse in the country, would have become a joke.

Is it ridiculous that the line of the top giants in the country can't even hit a ball with a first-year rookie?

This certainly doesn't make sense.

When Yuuki saw everyone looking at him, the captain of the Seido High School baseball team, he also understood in his heart, what are everyone's worries at this time?

About defense!

To be honest, these guys from the Seido High School baseball team are not worried at all.

In addition to the fact that their own defense is among the best in the country, there is another point that makes the friends of the Seido High School baseball team extremely relieved.

That is Jiang Guxiao!

The Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team does have a monster pitcher, but their Qingdao High School baseball team is not bad either.

Their monster newcomer also performs perfectly in this regard.

Cheng Gongming didn't lose any points, and their own trump card didn't lose any points either.

What really makes it difficult for everyone is whether their team's hitters can break through the opponent's line and hit the ball?

This may even be the key to determining the outcome of this game.

Cheng Gongming is so powerful!

The defensive strength of the entire Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is extremely impressive.

Ask yourself.

Do the batters of the Seido High School baseball team really think they are okay?

The answer is obviously not certain.

When watching the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team game video, everyone was very relaxed at first, but then they gradually became silent.

What does this mean?

This fully shows that the little friend has concerns in his heart.

Facing the Tokyo prince, they didn't have that much confidence, thinking that they would definitely be able to score points from their opponents.

As the captain of the team, what should you do?

In Yuuki's mind, he couldn't help but recall the scene when the supervisor talked to him.

"why me?"

Yuki, who had just received the news, was very shocked.

He obviously didn't think he was qualified to be the team's captain.

"I know what you are worried about? Our team has professional personnel, whether it is managing players or responsible for logistics. The captain does not need to manage these trivial matters. As the captain of our team, you only need to use your own strength to Just lead everyone forward!”

These words echoed in Yuki's mind for a long time.

It was also at that time that he understood the true painstaking efforts of his own supervision.

As the captain of the team, all he has to do is set a good example for everyone.

"Our team has the flexibility to make one-two punches and other hitters. I don't think we can't get hits and runs from the opponent."

"In the past year, especially after they played with us in the finals of the Kanto Conference, the opponent's progress has become more obvious. But they are not the only ones who have improved. We have also..."

The captain's words touched the hearts of every member of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

Yes!

In the past period of time, not only have the guys on the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team become stronger, they have never been idle.

"Haha, this is right. This is our captain!!"

Most of the third-year players on the Seido High School baseball team have smiles on their faces.

The first and second grade players seem to be more confident.

After the meeting, all players are free to move around.

The third-year players from Qingdao High School unanimously chose to stay and continue to watch the game video of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

Several friends from the first grade also got together.

When they left, Haruichi Kominato looked specifically at his brother.

In Kominato Haruichi's mind, his brother Kominato Ryosuke has always been the kind of person who would not be moved even if the sky fell.

But this time, he clearly saw that his brother seemed to be acting abnormally.

Even Sawamura, who seemed heartless, noticed something was wrong with his senior.

"Didn't we already defeat each other in the Kanto Tournament? Why do the seniors still look so nervous?"

Hearing Sawamura's question, Akatsuki Furuya glanced at his competitor in surprise.

In fact, the third-year seniors of the Seido High School baseball team have shown great restraint.

If you are not intentional or are naturally sensitive, you may not be able to detect their abnormalities.

But Sawamura found out!

This little guy really cares about his seniors, and he is also naturally sensitive.

"You really have the talent to be a trump card!"

Fang Guxiao said sincerely. After he said this, he immediately felt Sawamura's beast-like gaze.

"What did you say? Are you mocking me?"

If someone else said that, Sawamura must be very happy.

Maybe even the snot bubbles in his nose will burst out with joy!

But it was Akatsuki Fukitani who said this, the ace of the Seidō High School baseball team and his Sawamura's biggest rival.

In Sawamura's ears, these words inevitably turned into mockery.

"I didn't mean to laugh at you!"

Jiang Guxiao nodded and said, "I'm just telling the truth. Although you still have various problems now, these can't cover up your talent..."

"Haha, if you say that, I won't be happy either! Don't forget, we are rivals."

Seeing Sawamura smile, Fang Gu had the urge to punch him.

"Furitani-san, you said Sawamura-san is sharp? Is it possible that the seniors are really nervous?"

Although Kominato Haruichi also noticed it.

But he really couldn't believe that his brother and his brother's teammates were also nervous?

In Kominato Haru City, and even in the minds of most of the friends on the Seido High School baseball team, their third-year seniors are invincible.

Not only are they powerful, but they also stand firm.

As long as it's on the baseball field, there's no problem that they can't square it off.

Now, Jiang Gu actually said that they were also nervous?

You know, even in the finals of the Kanto Conference, these seniors performed calmly.

"Different!"

Fang Guxiao nodded.

"The glory of the Kanto Conference is of course also important. But it is a professional honor. For the players of our baseball team, they will not be obsessed with it."

"But Koshien is different! It is the dream place in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of baseball boys. Many people wanted to visit that dream place when they first started playing baseball."

"Those third-year seniors on our team, although they were originally called poor years, are also geniuses in their respective teams. Otherwise, they would not have received invitations from Qingdao. Back then they I have a dream for Koshien."

"Later, they joined Qingdao, a wealthy club that had not entered Koshien for several years. The obsession in their hearts became deeper and deeper with the regret of the retired senior."

Before, Fang Guxiao didn't understand these things.

But as he spent more time with the seniors from the Seido High School baseball team...

He has become more and more able to empathize with the seniors.

If they haven't entered Koshien this year.

Then the remaining players in Qingdao will definitely go crazy!

Entering Koshien is not only the obsession of the seniors, but now, it is the biggest obsession in the hearts of all the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

none of them!

Sawamura and Kominato Haruichi clearly understood what Furiya said.

"You have to come on, we..."

Sawamura spoke subconsciously.

"It's not me, it's us who have to work hard. In this game, whether it's for ourselves, the team, or even the seniors, we must reach Koshien."

Sawamura and Kominato Haruichi were shocked.

Akatsuki Fukitani is the ace of their team. He had another rest in the semifinals and did not pitch.

They subconsciously thought that Jiang Guxiao had already awakened in his heart and wanted to dominate the audience by himself?

Unexpectedly, their little friend could be so humble?

At this time, I am still willing to take them with me.

"You are also a member of the First Army. When the time comes, you will definitely have a chance to play!"

"profound!!"

The eyes of the two little guys lit up.

Especially Sawamura's face turned red.

"You finally realize the importance of this genius. Don't worry, I will be ready to play at any time. I will lead the seniors to enter Koshien together."

Ozawamura's attitude is undoubtedly excellent.

But fate just loves to play tricks on him.

Just as he said this, the door opened, and the third-year seniors from Qingdao filed out one by one.

"Study, senior. Don't you want to watch the video?"

Ozawamura stuttered.

In this scene, he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

"You said you wanted to take us to Koshien together?"

The mustachioed senior asked with a ferocious look on his face.

"No, I..."

"Humph."

The mustachioed senior ignored Sawamura, who was disheveled in the wind, and walked directly past him and walked out.

Chris was behind him, patiently explaining.

"Every scene in the game video has been engraved in their minds."

Then, Chris left too.

"master……"

Tears were about to burst out of Sawamura's eyes.

"Please, Acting Ace!"

Kominato Ryosuke said with a smile.

But his smile looked a little cold.

The bitingly cold kind.

Ozawamura felt his eyes darken, and it was foreseeable that he would not be too comfortable in his future days with the team.

Thinking of this, he stared at Akatsuki Furuya and Haruichi Kominato fiercely.

"You two, why didn't you remind me?"

If they reminded him, Sawamura wouldn't be so forgetful.

"I already winked."

Kominato Haruichi said with an aggrieved look.

"With your hair hidden, who can see?"

Sawamura looked at the sky speechlessly, tears of regret streaming from his eyes.

He also knew that he shouldn't blame his friends. This was just a bumpy road in his fate.

However, the ups and downs in their fate seemed to be too many.

Silent all night.

When the friends from the Qingdao High School baseball team came to the stadium again, they were very surprised to find that the scene was extremely lively.

"what happened?"

"It's the seniors and seniors who graduated from the school. They came to send condolences. And..."

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team were on the eve of the finals.

Many people came to cheer them on.

The most special one among them is Dong Qingguo, who just graduated recently.
