Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 222 Awakening, Akatsuki Fanggu in the form of the devil!

When I see Carl Rose, in a bunt stance.

In the stands, the supporters of both teams looked very stunned.

To be honest, they all knew Karl Ross.

Whether as a supporter of Daocheng or a supporter of Qingdao. They all know the strength of this little black man very clearly.

This is a terrifying existence with extraordinary striking power and top speed in the country.

His presence on the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is terrifyingly high.

Because of this, supporters of both teams are very familiar with him.

With pride from Carl Rose.

Even though he's perfect for blitzing with his bunt, it's rare to see him bunt on the field.

The little black classmate didn't even bother to use such methods.

He prefers to fight his opponents openly on the court.

Some people may think that the top hitter of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is very similar to the top hitter of Qingdao.

From a technical point of view, the styles of these two people are indeed similar.

But the striking strength of the two of them is definitely not on the same level!

To put it bluntly, Carl Ross is two or three levels better than Kuramochi of the Aomichi High School baseball team.

Although, he still has no way to touch the three powerful sticks of Western Tokyo.

But compared with the next-level strong players, Karl Ross is not inferior.

For example, Hoshida and Miyagawa, who are juniors in the city.

Qingdao's Yuxing, Feng Guxiao...

Putting the little black man on this list would not be offensive at all.

Now he stood in the strike zone and faced off against Feng Guxiao.

To be honest, the fans are looking forward to it.

However, they never expected that Karl Ross would be so powerful and proud.

He actually assumes a bunt stance from the very beginning?

Even Minister Ohta in the dugout of the Aomichi High School baseball team found this unbelievable.

"What does the opponent want to do?"

Chris looked at the notebook under his hand and said in a deep voice: "It's very simple. The other party's thoughts on Fangtani-san have reached the point where they will do anything."

The players of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team should know very well that if they cannot defeat Feng Gu, then they will never be able to win this game.

Based on this, they will definitely deal with Akatsuki Furi's pitching at all costs.

Now Carlos' bunt might just be the appetizer.

And Akatsuki Fukitani on the pitcher's mound and Kazuya Miyuki squatting at the catcher's position also knew this very well.

"It's so obvious that the other party wants to score points! Don't be fooled!"

Even if Carlos took a bunt stance, Miyukiichi wasn't too worried.

The ball thrown by their team's ace cannot be solved by bunts.

Fang Guxiao nodded.

As a partner, he certainly understands what Miyuki means.

"Don't worry, I will never show mercy!"

Fang Gu gathered his posture and threw the baseball in his hand with all his strength.

With the power and speed of his pitches, he clearly didn't think Karl Ross would be able to unload perfectly with his bunt.

And even if the ball is knocked out, Feng Gu is not too worried.

After all, he wasn't the only one competing against the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

They are a whole team!

Even if the ball flies out, the remaining friends on their team will definitely try their best to stop the ball.

Jiang Gu has never doubted this.

He believed in the seniors behind him, the kind who had no doubts.

However, just when he thought he was about to defeat his opponent.

The accident happened without warning.

Karl Ross, who was playing a bunt, suddenly took back the bat in his hand.

"Cheating!!"

The sudden change shocked the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

They couldn't understand, what happened to Karl Ross?

Standing on the strike zone, Karl Ross's little black face was full of ferocity.

"Do you think I can bunt?"

In order to compete with Feng Gu, he practiced thousands of times.

But even so, Karl Rose still had no way to deal with the changing ball thrown by Xiao Fanggu.

It is very difficult to hit a ball with a speed exceeding 150 kilometers.

Not to mention, this kind of ball also has changes...

Karl Rose thought for a long time about how he could ensure that Fukiya Akira's shot would be a straight ball. It's best to have a straight ball with a limited position!

After thinking about it, there is only one way to do this, and that is to fake a bunt.

As long as he assumes a bunt posture, Fangtani will definitely use his unreasonable ball speed to hit a specific corner and finish him off in one go.

Fang Gu’s ball speed exceeds 150 kilometers!

To be honest, if you want to hit the ball with your short game, you have to control your strength well.

This is difficult!

Akatsuki Fukitani naturally knows that, so he will definitely throw the ball in this way that makes it extremely difficult for the opponent.

"boom!"

The baseball roared, and Carl Ross remained calm.

He's simulated it many times with a pitching machine.

"If it's a specific straight shot, if it's in a specific position, then I can definitely hit the ball!"

"Ping!"

The little black classmate swung the bat with all his strength, hit the baseball firmly, and swept the ball away.

"Success!!"

Seeing the baseball fly out, Carl Ross sprinted all the way over first base and ran to second base.

"No one out, man on second base."

The fans in the stands, especially the die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team, were all stunned.

They knew that the young man named Karl Ross was definitely not an easy person to deal with.

But they still didn't expect that the opponent actually scored a double at the beginning.

The pitcher was Akatsuki Furuya.

Akatsuki Fukitani on the pitcher's mound frowned slightly.

Miyuki, who was squatting in the catcher's position, looked very gloomy.

It wasn't until this moment that he clearly realized that they had been fooled.

These guys from the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team have obviously studied them thoroughly.

Their seemingly risky approach is actually very methodical.

Take the ball just now for example!

It can be said that Karl Ross accurately calculated every move they made, and then formulated corresponding strategies based on their actions.

The final successful attack could never be a coincidence.

Carlos didn't even know how many times he had practiced it in private!

"It seems that after the Kanto Tournament ended, these guys have been thinking about how to get points from Fangtani?"

Realizing this, Miyuki suddenly felt that their previous strategy was still too conservative.

They only thought about Jiang Guxiao's reliability, but why did they forget that their opponents must have calculated all of this accurately.

"Maybe if we let Sawamura or Tanba-senpai start the game, the effect will be better..."

This thought flashed through Miyuki's mind.

This idea was soon abandoned by himself.

His idea sounds fine, but in fact, the problem is very serious.

If those two people were replaced, would they be able to block Daocheng's attack?

Not necessarily.

After all, the players of the Daocheng High School baseball team, apart from their deliberate efforts to deal with Feng Gu, are also top-notch in terms of their own strength. Even if they are not deliberately targeted, if they are allowed to face off against Sawamura or Tanba-senpai.

Who will win in the end?

It's actually hard to say.

And from the standpoint of the Seido High School baseball team, letting those two pitchers play is far less reassuring than letting their ace play.

"This is something the opponent has carefully prepared. Don't take it too seriously. As long as you shoot at your own pace, we can solve the opponent!"

Miyuki gave a comforting signal to Fang Guxiao.

In fact, he didn't need his partner to take action. Fang Gu on the pitcher's mound also understood what problem he was encountering now.

"This is right, then come on!!"

To be honest, the surprise that the players of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team had prepared for him was quite a big one.

Rang Jiangu was stunned for a moment.

However, he quickly adjusted. Since the other party was deliberately trying to deal with him, he would do the opposite.

When Shirakawa, Daocheng's second batter, came on the court, Feng Gu deliberately changed his pitching rhythm.

"Whoosh!"

The pitching that was originally so powerful suddenly slowed down.

Bai He, who was standing on the strike zone, was obviously caught off guard.

"Oops, it's a speed ball!"

This is completely different from the script they played in their minds.

But Shirakawa, who had already swung the bat, had no time to change his swing posture.

He could only force adjustments.

"Ping!"

When the baseball was knocked out, the players of the Seido High School baseball team and their supporters in the stands all had smiles on their faces.

"Second base!!!"

For the guys on the Seido High School baseball team, there is no more reliable position than this one.

The ball at second base will never go through!

This is the trust they have in their second baseman.

And this second baseman is Ryosuke Kominato, the famous devil hitter of the Aomichi High School baseball team.

This devil beater doesn't just know how to hit.

His abilities in all aspects are among the best in the entire Qingdao High School baseball team.

In terms of defensive ability alone, he is even the best in the entire Qingdao.

Just when everyone thought that the elimination number was already certain.

The accident happened suddenly!

It happened without any warning.

Kominato Ryosuke, who had just moved his body to catch the ball, suddenly became sluggish...

Although he was still struggling with all his strength, the baseball still passed through his glove about five centimeters away.

"Snapped!"

Seeing the baseball bounce off the ground, the die-hard supporters of the Qingdao High School baseball team in the stands were all dumbfounded.

This scene was completely different from what they had expected.

Kominato Ryosuke, how could such a mistake happen?

They wanted to ask.

But considering that players make a few mistakes on the court, it is really not surprising.

They also felt that it would not be good to criticize the players on the court too harshly...

Supporters kept their mouths shut.

In the dugout of the Seido High School baseball team.

Director Kataoka frowned.

Kominato Ryosuke's mistake was too fatal for them.

Because the baseball hit the ground and bounced through!

The little black man Carl Ross, who was originally on second base, rushed all the way to third base.

This is not over yet, he continues to rush towards home plate.

"You die for me!!"

The mustachioed senior stepped forward frantically to cover the ball and finally stopped the ball.

Then he threw a beam-like pass.

The white baseball, like a dazzling white light, instantly appeared at the catcher's position.

"Snapped!"

After receiving the baseball, Miyuki Ichino immediately swept it with his glove.

But he was still a step slower. The little black man Carl Rose was not only fast, but also had long arms.

He fell down early and his arm directly touched the home plate bag.

"Safety!!"

Not long after the Qingdao High School baseball team scored, the guys from the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team immediately counterattacked.

The score on the field became a 1:1 tie.

In the stands, many die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team were completely dumbfounded.

They stared at the scene on the court in disbelief, their minds filled with questions.

"Furutani-san, you actually lost points!!"

Fujio, a senior reporter from Baseball Kingdom magazine, also gave a very pertinent evaluation of this situation.

"What a surprise!"

It's not surprising at all that he would have such thoughts.

From his point of view, what happened was indeed very strange.

"Whether it's Narumiya-san or Furiya, they are the top pitchers in Tokyo and even in the country. Before today's game, these two ace pitchers had not even allowed a run."

"But now, both pitchers have broken the defense!"

There is no question about the strength of these two top pitchers in the country.

So the only reasonable explanation for this situation now is that the attack power of both sides is too strong.

And from the beginning, they deliberately studied each other's weaknesses.

"These kids are really amazing!"

"From the beginning of the game to now, it only lasts a few minutes. They have already firmly attracted the attention of all fans!"

"Perhaps, the level of this game has far exceeded the high school level."

Fujio felt this.

He also firmly believed that his judgment would never be wrong.

"Senior, take a look..."

After hearing Owada Akiko's reminder, Fujio came out of his own world.

Then he followed the beautiful assistant's fingers and looked at the pitcher's mound.

No one out, first base occupied.

Fang Guxiao, who had lost one point, was filled with a terrifying fighting spirit.

He didn't have any extreme words or any extreme reactions.

But when people saw the moment when Gu Xiao fell like that, an idea emerged in their minds involuntarily.

"It seems like a terrifying trait in Jiang Guxiao's body has been awakened!!"

Although Akatsuki Fangiya hasn't expressed anything yet, people just have that strange feeling.

They felt that Akatsuki Fanggu at this time was like a devil crawling out of hell.

At this moment, the era of first-year rookie monsters ends, and the Demon King awakens!
