Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 239 The King Returns!

When Sawamura returned to the rest area, his face was earth-colored.

Previously, the little guy thought that after experiencing the defeat in the previous competition with the pharmacist, he had developed an iron will.

In this way, no matter what happens?

He will never waver again.

But today, facing the powerful Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

Facing the players of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team who are bent on winning.

But he was timid...

"it's all my fault!"

The young man lowered his head, tears falling from his eyes.

This blow was even greater than when he played against the Yakashi High School baseball team.

In the rest area, those friends from the Seido High School baseball team couldn't help but want to come forward to comfort Sawamura when they saw him in this situation.

They actually wanted to tell Sawamura that he had done a very good job.

From the perspective of a bystander, if they were on the field, they might not be able to do what Sawamura did.

You know, they are all second- and third-year veteran players. Sawamura is a first-year student, a complete newcomer.

"Don't disturb him!"

Chris spoke up, stopping everyone.

As Sawamura's master, he cares about his disciples more than anyone else.

But as an excellent baseball player, Chris understands that now is not the time for them to be soft-hearted.

In the previous scene with Pharmacist High School, after Sawamura collapsed, he relied on supervision and everyone's support to survive.

His recovery speed was so fast that even his friends on the Seido High School baseball team were amazed.

But now, things are different.

The first time he could rely on the strength of his companions, but the second time he could no longer rely on them.

There are some difficulties and thorns, but ultimately it is up to the player to overcome them, so that he can truly grow.

In the final analysis, the setbacks Sawamura is experiencing now are not what a first-year pitcher should bear.

Ordinary first-year rookies have no chance of being selected for the first team if they join one of the top clubs in the country like the Seido High School baseball team.

Even if you are lucky enough to join the First Army, most of it is to train new people.

To put it bluntly, they won't have much opportunity to grow.

In comparison, Sawamura's experience is stronger than that of some second-year potential pitchers.

The main reason why he is not so dazzling is because there is a more dazzling person in their Qingdao High School baseball team.

If you leave aside Akatsuki Fukoutani, Sawamura is simply treated as a child of destiny.

Only such a destined son would experience such setbacks on the court.

"Whether it's strength, luck, or coincidence. You've already come this far! Next, you will face only two choices. Either overcome this obstacle and truly grow and transform. Or, just sink."

Chris looked at Sawamura deeply. He believed that his disciple could definitely overcome this hurdle.

From the first time that little guy appeared, he was destined to be extraordinary.

As for the next game.

Whether it's Chris or the other players and supporters of the Seido High School baseball team.

They all believed in their hearts that the outcome was doomed from the moment the man returned to the mound.

With two outs, there was a man on second base.

The blow came to Harada, the fourth bat of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

Although the players and supporters of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team are still cheering for their team’s fourth bat.

But everyone can feel it, ever since the young pitcher named Akatsuki Furuya returned to the mound.

The atmosphere at the scene changed.

The players and supporters of the Aomichi High School baseball team seemed to have suddenly found a backbone, and their morale became high.

Correspondingly, the players and supporters of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team looked solemn.

Even though they are still cheering for the hitters, their momentum is not as good as before.

Harada, who was standing on the strike zone, was obviously aware of this.

As the fourth member of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team, Harada certainly felt uncomfortable.

He is a third-year super stick, one of the three strongest sticks in Nishi Tokyo. Now against a first-year freshman, everyone is generally not optimistic about him?

This feeling is difficult for those who are not involved to fully understand it.

Harada also felt awkward.

But the captain of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team knew better.

Why do you feel this way?

This was mainly because in his previous duel with Fang Guxiao, he was suppressed by the opponent throughout the entire process.

If he can hit the ball, even just once.

Everyone's ideas will change accordingly.

Now, with two outs, there's a man on second base.

With the previous point scored, the score on the field also became 2:2.

This means that as long as Harada can hit the ball away, they can complete the reversal in an instant.

The game has entered the second half of the sixth inning. If Daocheng Industrial takes the lead at this time, there is a high probability that the result of the game will be locked in advance.

"This is when I do my job as the fourth player on the team."

In Harada's mind, what their supervisor told him appeared unconsciously.

"Among the three strongest players in Nishi Tokyo, your record is always a little worse than Yuki and Ohmae. I don't think this is because your strength is not as good as those two. It's just that you are a As the team’s main catcher and captain, you think too much about the game. Of course, this is not a bad thing, but it just means that you have no way to focus all your attention on the duel."

In response to this, Kuoyou Supervisor put forward his advice.

"When you're not hitting, you can keep your old habits, no problem. But when you're in the batter's box, you don't have to think about that much. You just have to remember, you're a hitter."

I'm a hitter!

At this moment, Harada had only this thought left in his mind.

It's not that he doesn't want to, he wants more.

But when facing Akatsuki Furigu, Harada understood in his heart.

If he doesn't give it his all, he'll have a hard time beating the first-year guy.

"bring it on!"

The bat in his hand was raised high, without any hesitation or confusion in his eyes.

At this time, Harada's whole body exuded a kind of pure power!

Miyuki, who was squatting in the catcher's position, immediately frowned after feeling Harada's aura.

As a star catcher, Miyuki knows better than anyone else what it means for Harada to be like this?

As one of the three strongest players in Western Tokyo, Harada's threat is at the highest level.

Now, he seems to be even more terrifying.

"must be careful!"

In fact, Miyuki didn't need to remind him, Akatsuki Furuya himself could feel the aggressive aura exuding from Harada.

The fourth baton of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team posed an even greater threat to him!

But Fang Guxiao himself didn't care much about this.

Even from his standpoint, he thinks this is the right thing to do!

A powerful opponent can bring greater pressure to him. At the same time, such an opponent will also stimulate Jiang Guxiao's nerves to a certain extent.

Such stimulation can make him stronger.

"If you want to, then come!"

Raise your legs high and land hard on one foot!

Dust and sand flew up from the pitcher's mound as Feng Gu's foot hit the ground.

At the same time, the baseball in his hand also flew out.

The pitching motion was done in one go, and the moment the baseball was released, a huge roar immediately erupted.

"boom!!"

The baseball flashed by.

Harada, who was full of momentum, did not take any action when faced with this ball.

He watched helplessly as the white baseball flew past him.

"Snapped!"

"Good shot!" The baseball got into Miyuki Kazuya's glove and made a loud noise.

Pitcher, one strike, lead.

In the stands, those die-hard supporters of the Seido High School baseball team began to cheer excitedly.

They knew that as long as this man came on stage, all problems would no longer be a problem.

On the side of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team, the atmosphere also became more serious.

The Minister of Industry in Daocheng, who had a Mediterranean hairstyle, scratched his head in distress: "Isn't it possible?"

Originally, Feng Guxiaoben was replaced, but now he is back.

The director of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team is also wondering about the ups and downs his status may have.

But now it seems that it was just wishful thinking on his part.

Standing on the pitcher's mound, Fanggu couldn't see anything strange at all.

On the contrary, at this time, he gave people the impression that his condition was so good that it exploded.

It seems that he has just been replaced in the outfield, allowing Furiya to get enough rest.

Now, he has returned with full blood.

"This first grade brat..."

Just when the Mediterranean minister wanted to continue saying something. Director Kunito suddenly turned his neck, and then people heard a creaking sound in his neck.

"No, I can't tell yet."

Although Fang Guxiao's performance is as strong as ever.

It seemed like he had just rediscovered his form as soon as he got back to the mound. This is certainly not good news for the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

However, Kuoyou Supervision has discovered very keenly that the current situation seems to be different from before.

It's true that Akatsuki Fukitani's pitching is as strong as ever.

But the performance of their team's players on the court was no longer as weak as it was at the beginning.

Harada's eyes were very steady, and he was obviously not frightened by Fangtani's ball speed.

This means that even though the opponent's ball speed is very fast.

But Harada is still confident that he can hit the ball out.

"Just look forward to our captain's performance!"

My own supervisor has said so, what can the Mediterranean Minister say?

He also has his eyes on the pitcher's mound, looking forward to the final result between the two.

The duel continued, quite tense.

Although the pitcher is powerful, it seems that his opponent is not willing to admit defeat.

After Miyukiichi also noticed this, he decisively gave Furigu a code signal.

He did not give specific instructions, but just reminded Jiang Gu to be careful.

At the same time, he also expressed his determination to his partner.

"Don't worry about me, just do your best! No matter how fast you throw the ball or where you throw it, I will definitely block the ball."

Miyuki Kazuya's attitude also strengthened Fukitani's confidence.

No matter what kind of ball it is, can your partner catch it?

This may be a given for other pitchers.

But for Jiang Gu, this sentence carries a fatal temptation.

The reason why he traveled all the way to Tokyo in the first place was to join the Seido High School baseball team.

A big part of the reason for this is because he couldn't meet anyone who could catch his ball before.

This forced him to run to Tokyo and enter Qingdao...

Now, he finally doesn’t have to keep it anymore!

He can go all out and show all his strength on the court.

"Then I will be liberated!"

The legs raised high, higher than ever before.

Akatsuki Furuya on the pitcher's mound seemed to have unlocked his shackles.

The baseball thrown from his hands was extremely fast.

"boom!"

As the baseball continued to break through the air, it erupted with a huge sound of breaking through the air.

The sound was so loud that even some fans who were relatively close to the stands could hear it.

Not to mention Harada in the striking position.

Harada felt that his little heart was beating like a jazz drum.

So fast! ! So strong! ! !

Even though his opponent was only a freshman in high school, he could still feel Sawamura's aggressive aura.

As expected of a first-year freshman monster!

While Harada was sighing, the movements of his hands were not slow at all.

Holding the bat tightly with both hands, he hit the bat without hesitation in the face of the flying baseball.

"I won't admit defeat!!"

Even if the opponent is a monster!

At this time, Harada was not afraid at all.

In this short moment, he used all his strength.

The bat in his hand was swung with great force.

The speed of the baseball is fast, and the speed of the bat is not slow either...

"Ping!"

In the end, the bat hit the baseball firmly.

Then people saw the baseball pass over the batter, over the catcher's head, over the umpire, and land behind the umpire.

"Snapped!"

"The outside world!!"

The powerful Harada couldn't hit the ball in front of him?

Not to mention the supporters of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team.

Even the friends and supporters of the Seido High School baseball team were deeply shocked.

It's not like they never thought that Jiang Guxiao would win.

In fact, Fangtani has already won twice against Harada so far.

There is nothing to say...

But they never thought that Feng Gu could suppress Harada to this point?

He was able to make the captain of the Daocheng Industrial High School baseball team unable to even fight back.

Of course Harada himself didn’t think so.

Although he missed the blow this time, there was a sparkle in his eyes.

"You can touch the ball!"

This is obviously crucial to Harada.

If you can't touch the ball, there's nothing you can do about it.

As long as he can touch the ball, he can definitely sweep it away.

Just when Harada was thinking this, Akatsuki Furuya's third goal came.

"Now, fly out!"

Harada spotted the baseball and took action decisively.

But he had already swung the bat, but the white baseball never appeared.

After a long while, Harada heard the sound of the baseball falling into his glove.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

"strike out!!!"

"Three out, exchange offense and defense!!"
