Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 272 The strongest attack power in the country! (-in-)

In the rest area of ​​Qingdao.

A group of partners stared at their opponents intently.

"It seems that our opponent is not simple."

Chris commented heartily.

He collected the information, and he undoubtedly knew the most about Saint Daphne.

However, even so, when they actually faced off on the field, Chris was still very keenly aware of it. Their opponents were not as easy to deal with as they had imagined.

After these patchwork players came together, they strangely merged into a collective...

"The main players who participated in the regional competition before have now become substitutes. The vast majority of international students are playing."

Miyuki also followed suit.

From Miyuki's point of view, he obviously does not think that this is all Chris's problem.

It should be said that the Saint-Dolf team is unique in itself.

"This time, it's a bit tricky."

The mustachioed senior pouted.

When they collected each other's information before, they made a very calm judgment.

Between them and this team, who has a greater chance of winning?

Based on the intelligence collected by Qingdao at that time, coupled with their objective analysis.

They finally came to the conclusion that although Saint Daphne was not weak, the threat to them should not be as great as Wucheng.

That is to say, if nothing unexpected happens during this game.

It should be very easy for them to win this game.

But the current situation is somewhat different.

The opponent's main players have all been changed! The team's formation has also become different.

This also means that a lot of the work they did before has now become useless.

Originally they had some understanding of their opponents, but now it is not an exaggeration to say that they know nothing about them.

In this case, how are they going to fight?
Just when this kind of question arises in the minds of my friends.

Jack, the black pitcher on the mound, threw out the baseball in his hand.

"call out!"

The baseball was like a cold arrow, arriving in front of Kuramochi instantly.

Such a sharp pitch made Seido players and supporters couldn't help but sweat for Kuramochi.

Not only are they worried about whether the young man can withstand it?

Kuramochi on the strike zone narrowed his eyes slightly.

No matter from any perspective, this black pitcher named Jack has two brushes.

Before, there was really nothing he could do.

But after experiencing the Kanto Conference and the finals in Nishi-Tokyo, Kuramochi is no longer what he used to be.

He has seen such a powerful high-drop ball more than once.

Seeing the baseball coming, he took action decisively.

"Ping!"

The white baseball was hit.

Jack on the pitcher's mound had a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

He obviously didn't expect that the kid who didn't look very strong could actually hit his ball?
What made him even more unexpected was that the baseball actually hit the ball for more than thirty meters before it bounced off the ground.

Although he was surprised, Black Jack still believed that they had a chance to win.

"Xiaoshang!"

He called for help from his teammates.

The shortstop of their team took a few steps back and blocked the ball after the baseball bounced.

"it is good!"

Such a beautiful fielding action aroused cheers from Saint-Dolf players and supporters.

However, before their cheering ended, they were surprised to find out. The boy who was originally on the strike zone was almost reaching first base at some point!

"impossible!"

"what happened?"

The Saint-Dolf players and supporters all widened their eyes in disbelief.

Although Kuramochi's blow surprised them, it didn't make them lose their composure.

But Cangmochi's speed completely refreshed their understanding.

"How could the other party be so fast?"

Even Guanyue, who was sitting in the rest area, stood up in surprise at this time.

He knew that Kurama held a pair of scuds.

This was discovered when they were investigating Qingdao information.

But he obviously didn't expect that the other party would be so fast?
This is much faster than when they originally investigated the information.

"Safety!!"

The man who completed the beautiful defense didn't even have time to return the pass.

Qingdao's first pitch was successfully on base.

The situation became one with no outs and one man on first base.

And the runner on the base is Kuramochi, who is also known as the Scud.

In this situation, anyone can see that Qingdao is not far away from scoring...

Obviously their opponents are very strong!
However, Qingdao still created a scoring opportunity at the first opportunity.

This gave those Qingdao supporters in the stands a feeling of being surrounded by great happiness.

"So what about international students? You are still far behind."

"As expected of you, Scud-kun!"

Not only the fans in the stands, but Qingdao's friends were also surprised.

Although they did not stand in the strike zone, they could generally tell that the pitcher named Jack was probably not an ordinary person.

Our partners have just been prepared for a tough fight.

Unexpectedly, Kuramochi got on base so easily?

Such a great scoring opportunity is in front of them. If they don't seize it, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to their opponents?

Team supervisor Kataoka gave the signal for the upcoming second pitch.

Kominato nodded discreetly.

The task he received was simple, which was to walk Kuramochi to second base.

The game had just begun, and the opponent showed extraordinary strength again.

Supervisor Kataoka has already planned to score one point first and be safe.

Despite the head-to-head matchup, they could potentially score more points.

But a head-on confrontation also comes with risks.

Once the opponent catches the opportunity to counterattack, the advantage they finally created may be lost.

Even the momentum of their entire team may be affected.

After failing to break into Koshien in the past few years, Director Kataoka also learned one thing.

I want to dominate the field and I want my team to go further.

Then you must do it, grab what you can get your hands on first and then talk about it.

This is how they lost to Daocheng in last year's summer competition.

Now, both he and his disciples have learned enough lessons.

Kominato Ryosuke didn't make any extra moves. He assumed a bunt stance from the beginning.

"Want to walk a runner?"

Qingdao's straightforward performance made the Saint-Dolf players unsure.

They were suspicious, Qingdao really planned to send him out?
The other side also suspected that this was a trap.

"Cunning guy likes to play tricks like this!"

Black Jack on the pitcher's mound, his eyelids twitching.

According to his personality, he obviously hopes that Qingdao players can compete with him on the field in an upright manner.

What kind of hero is this kind of clever guy?
"go to hell!!"

The young man took a bad shot directly into the inside corner.

You must know that Kominato Ryosuke at this time was in a bunt stance.

A pitch like blackjack is very likely to hit a player.

"unacceptable!!"

The players in the Qingdao rest area, including their supporters in the stands, were all furious.

However, before they had time to take action, Kominato Ryosuke in the strike zone had already taken half a step back.

He was stunned to use bunt in an extremely awkward posture.

"Ping!"

This sudden bunt immediately confused the Saint-Dolf player.

They never dreamed that someone could bunt a bad ball in the inside corner?
By the time they figured it out, the baseball had already hit the ground and began to roll forward.

St. Daphne's third baseman rushed forward. However, this ball was too sudden. When he picked up the ball, let alone blocked Kuramochi.

Ryosuke Kominato almost hit the bases.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

St. Daphne managed to get one out.

But none of their team's supervisors or players were happy.

It's true that they got out, but their opponents achieved their strategic intentions.

The fast Kuramochi ran directly to second base in the scoring circle.

what does this mean?
This means that the opponent can take the lead in scoring with just one hit.

The hitters who came on after them were the core third and fourth batters of their team respectively.

Aoi Shingetsu, the beautiful manager with long black hair and straight hair, frowned unconsciously.

"Aren't these guys too difficult to deal with?"

Although the strength shown by the Qingdao players is not much better than them.

But as the game progresses, the situation becomes more and more favorable to the opponent.

"Could it be said that this is a wealthy family..."

"What a wealthy family, it's just a showpiece. In the face of absolute strength, these are not problems. Jack!!"

With the roar of Aoi Kanzuki.

The black pitcher on the mound no longer had the smile on his face.

He suddenly became serious.

At this time, it was their team's turn to step into the strike zone.

The mustachioed senior, Isashiki Jun.

From Isashiki Jun's point of view, when he looks at the opponent's ace, he always has a dark face.

As for distinguishing each other's expressions, unfortunately, he couldn't tell the difference.

But it doesn't matter if they can't tell the difference. Isashiki Jun can clearly feel that the opponent seems to be serious about competing with them.

"Tch! Come here if you can."

Isashiki Jun didn't care at all about this.

He raised the bat in his hand high, as if he was waiting for the ball to come and then hit it with all his strength.

Just then, the pitcher on the mound took action.

Black Jack waved his long arm, giving the impression that he was throwing the ball casually.

However, it was this casual ball, but the speed was not slow.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing the baseball coming, Senior Mustache had no intention of waiting.

He grasped the bat tightly with both hands, waited for the baseball to approach, and took a decisive shot.

"Buzz!"

"Fly out!!!"

He had been waiting for the strike position and watched for a long time.

This shot was played with full confidence.

"Ping!"

The white baseball was hit and flew high into the air.

The Qingdao players and supporters couldn't help but cheer.

At this time, in the rest area of ​​St. Dov.

Aoi Kanyue smiled evilly.

“That ball couldn’t fly out of the infield!!”

Just like Guanyue said, the ball seemed to fly very far.

But after flying for a certain distance, it suddenly fell.

The shortstop named Kamei waited for the baseball to land early and caught the ball.

"Snapped!"

"Out!!"

The situation came down to two outs and a man on second base.

The Qingdao rest area suddenly became silent.

After a long while, Chris' voice came.

"The spin of a baseball is a bit like a falling ball!"

The drop ball is not the changeup ball in baseball, but the curve ball in football.

The same arc changes from top to bottom.

They didn't know how the black pitcher named Jack could throw such a ball?

But one thing is certain, that is, the opponent did indeed throw this kind of ball.

"International students from North America? Sure enough, they have a way..."

Miyuki smiled bitterly.

These black players seem careless on the surface. But in fact, their skills and strength are very extraordinary.

Take this black player, for example, his performance on the court is very eye-catching.

Also very surprising.

"Such a good scoring opportunity, if we cannot seize it, it will be a huge blow to our team!"

Minister Ota rubbed his hands and said nervously.

"That's not necessarily the case..."

Hearing this voice, Ota immediately turned his head, and he happened to see Fukitani's confident face.

"Don't forget, the next one to play is our captain!"

"Fourth bat, No. 3, first baseman, Yuuki-san!"

With two out, it's Yuki's turn to strike.

Facing the powerful opponent, Yuuki just raised the bat in his hand with a blank expression.

"No matter how hard you struggle, it's useless...!"

Jack, the black pitcher on the mound, looked confident.

He held his head up proudly, not even lowering his head when pitching.

It feels like a high-altitude god looking down on mortals.

"Get out...!"

The white baseball comes out and the pitcher is confident.

From his perspective, he might have thought that Yuki was not far away from being eliminated.

However, Yuki standing on the strike zone was completely different from what he thought.

Yuuki stared intently at the flying baseball. When the white ball approached, he suddenly started to move.

When it is motionless, Yuki is as tall and tall as a mountain.

Once it moves, it is as fast as thunder.

Seeing this scene, Saint-Dolf's catcher subconsciously widened his eyes.

So strong!

From his perspective, Yuki looked like a ghost at this time.

"boom!!"

The bat was swung out with a loud cracking sound.

"Ping!"

After the baseball was hit, it fell like a meteor.

All the Saint-Dolf players stared with their eyes wide open as they watched the ball hit the ground and bounce.

"Snapped!"

As the baseball hit the ground, Kuramochi sprinted from second base to third base, crossed third base, and ran to home plate.

"Hip-hop!!"

Seeing this scene, Qingdao fans and supporters were extremely excited.

"So handsome! As expected of the captain!!"

"Get one point first!!"

The game had only started five minutes, facing a strange opponent like St. Dov.

Qingdao scored one point first.

The score became 1:0.

And this is not over yet, the next player in Qingdao is already ready.

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

The fifth blow came.
