Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 296 Jianggu’s physical fitness (two-in-one)

In the corridor of the hospital, several giants from Qingdao High School were waiting anxiously.

"Gentlemen, the results have come out."

As the little nurse appeared, several people immediately gathered around.

They took the examination form from the little nurse. After reading the list, everyone, you look at me and I look at you.

No one spoke.

There are specialties in the arts, no matter how talented they are on the baseball field.

When it comes to medicine, especially sports medicine, they still know nothing about it.

I can't understand the film at all, and I can't understand the inspection documents either.

"Where's the doctor?"

"The doctor is in the office."

The little nurse said understandingly.

Several people were relieved.

They walked toward the doctor's office.

"It seems like that kid is really important!"

The little nurse muttered.

As a relatively well-known private hospital, it is also a private hospital specializing in sports medicine.

She has met all kinds of children and parents.

No child has ever been treated like Jiang Gu.

Hearing the little nurse's words, a colleague next to her immediately opened his eyes in disbelief.

"Have you really never heard of him?"

"Who?"

"The Demon King surrenders to Akatsuki!"

"Ah! Is he the man who throws a 160-kilometer fastball on the baseball field?"

"One hundred and sixty-one kilometers!!"

Colleagues corrected seriously.

As fans of Feng Gu, they can say that they keep this number in mind.

Although this speed can only rank third in the history of Koshien.

But Fang Gu’s fans firmly believe that sooner or later, Fang Gu will throw a faster ball!

They firmly believe in this.

"very impressive!"

"That kid is so polite."

"Is there anything wrong with the list he checked?"

"I forgot to watch!"

The little nurse looked ashamed.

This is just her job. As a nurse, she only needs to complete her duties.

How good or bad are the test results?

Why should she worry?

In the doctor's office, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking polite frowned at the examination results in his hand.

The more he looked at the test results, the darker the expression on his face became.

Seeing the doctor's gloomy face, Kataoka supervising them felt like they were fetching water from 15 buckets, and they were very nervous.

"What's wrong, doctor?"

Finally, it was Supervisor Kataoka who spoke and asked proactively.

When the middle-aged doctor heard the question, he raised his head and looked at everyone.

"What questions do you want to ask?"

"How is the young man you just checked?"

"Is he feeling unwell? Or has he been injured before?"

The doctor asked seriously.

Director Kataoka shook his head firmly, "I haven't suffered any injuries or diseases..."

"Then what are you doing here? This guy is as strong as a calf. He doesn't need to see a doctor at all!"

The doctor was very angry.

He is not the kind of doctor who is short of patients. As a well-known sports medicine expert, there are as many as eighty patients waiting to see him.

The other party asked someone to find him, so he would jump in the queue for him.

Unexpectedly, after spending a long time, nothing was found in the end.

"what!"

Kataoka and the others were stunned when they heard the doctor's answer.

This result was completely different from what they had imagined.

They never dreamed that the other party would give them such a result?
"This kid is only fifteen years old. He keeps throwing such fast balls, and we are still worried..."

After hearing Supervisor Kataoka's explanation, the doctor carefully examined the film again.

From his professional point of view, he did not see any hidden dangers in falling valley.

If you were to rank all the people who have made films, Jiang Gu's physique would definitely be at the top.

"It cannot be said that your concerns are unreasonable. But judging from the results of the film, there is indeed nothing wrong with this child. He is very strong, so this is probably because of his extraordinary talent."

"Does that mean he can keep voting?"

Hearing this question, Takashima Rei asked excitedly.

For pitchers like their ace, the biggest obstacle that troubles them is the side effects of fast balls on the body.

To put it bluntly, this may affect the player's career lifespan.

If Fenggu doesn’t have this problem, then for their team, including Fenggu’s future.

But they are all huge surprises!

Maybe, an unprecedented super monster will be born in their team.

Hearing Takashima Rei's question, the doctor who originally wanted to nod directly hesitated for a moment.

"Although judging from the inspection results, there is absolutely no problem in doing so. But I still have to remind you that the side effects of this kind of fast ball on the player's body do not happen overnight, but are accumulated over time."

"In principle, I don't agree with your method. If possible, players should still be given enough rest time. To use an old saying from Western countries, one step at a time is the king."

Although judging from the results of his professional examination, the doctor did not see any problems.

But he still gave very cautious advice.

Even if this possibility is not high, they must avoid it as much as possible.

This is the cautious attitude one should have towards a young genius.

"We understand."

Kataoka supervised that although they did not understand sports medicine, they had baseball experience.

How seriously does Koshien's competition system deplete pitchers?

They know it in their hearts.

When he took Furuya back to the hotel, Director Kataoka had already made a decision in his mind.

It was at this time that news about their opponent came out.

Their opponent in the third round was from Fukuoka Prefecture and was known as Fukuoka Star.

"Futian High School!!"

"Another powerful and wealthy family!!"

When they heard the name of this school, the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team felt numb.

You must know that when they were in the regional competition, although their region was called the group of death.

But among them, there are only three truly top wealthy families in the country.

And being one of them themselves, they only have to focus on the other two.

These two are Daocheng and Shi Dasan respectively.

Friends, you clearly remember how high the level of the top wealthy families in the country is?
Every time they play against this kind of team, their hearts beat faster.

Extremely exciting.

But now, when they face the top giants in the country, they no longer feel the same nervousness as before.

After they broke into Koshien, the friends were very surprised to find out. The opponents they compete with are either super dark horses or the top giants in the country.

This situation becomes more and more obvious as they continue to advance.

"There is no way around it. The stage of Koshien is meant to face the whole country. The teams that can participate in Koshien are all the first in their respective divisions. The strength of these opponents cannot be underestimated. Maybe there are If one or two divisions are not strong, they will be eliminated soon.”

"Those who can stay now, even if they are not the top wealthy families in the country, still have the strength of the top wealthy families in the country."

This is the truth about the top 16 in Koshien.

"Compared to other teams, Futian's strength is even worse."

Chris analyzed carefully.

To be honest, their teammates on the team are also quite unlucky.

The first round of the game was deliberately designed, and they met a powerful club.

In the second round, I was even more unlucky and encountered a super dark horse.

Now in the third round, it is obvious that the opponents are also the top clubs in the country.

But relatively speaking, the threat level of this one is obviously much weaker.

Chris even thought that the other party might not be as good as St. Daphne.

Director Kataoka and the team's coaches obviously have this idea too.

This can be seen when they lay out their tactics.

"According to our original plan, the second round of the competition was to let Furitani-san rest."

Everyone understands this.

No team's ace can survive the entire Koshien.

Not to mention, the pitching style of their team's ace is the most physically demanding.

Even before joining Koshien, the friends of the Aomichi High School baseball team had already formulated a policy.

Give their ace enough rest time.

Unfortunately, the situation is stronger than the person.

No one could have expected that their opponent in the second round would be so difficult to deal with?

If their team's ace didn't play at that time, they might lose.

Now, they have successfully passed the second round.

Although the next opponent's strength should not be underestimated.

But overall, it was still within the tolerance of the friends of the Seido High School baseball team.

It's time for their team's ace to take a good rest.

I just don’t know how their supervisor plans to arrange the pitching order?
Director Kataoka looked around.

Finally, he set his sights on third-year pitcher Dambo.

"I don't plan to let Shitaya pitch. The momentum at the beginning of the game depends on you!"

Upon hearing Supervisor Kataoka's order, many third-year players felt their blood surge in their bodies.

After waiting for so long, they finally arrived at this moment.

"It's up to you, former ace!"

If it were in the past, Tanba would definitely be unhappy when he heard such a name.

But now.

Danba's mentality has changed.

Even when he heard the words "former ace", he showed no concern.

"Yes!"

The answer was sonorous and powerful.

The friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team also had joy in their eyes after seeing this scene.

Although their team's ace is performing extremely well, they are also extremely satisfied with their current ace...

But everyone is still happy to have such a senior.

They're both happy for their team and happy that their third-year ace can bounce back.

Almost everyone on the team had a smile on their face. The only exception is probably first-year Sawamura.

At the time of the last game, the Seido High School baseball team was famous all over the country.

The name of the Devil Pitcher is well known to everyone.

They became popular immediately.

In contrast, Sawamura, who was also a first-year player and was defeated by his opponent not long after his debut, was met with many doubts.

Even he himself suffered a huge blow in his heart.

Now when their supervisor was arranging work, they actually ignored him as the starting pitcher.

This made Sawamura feel even more tortured.

Could it be that their supervisor has given up on him?

This is nothing new within the Seido High School baseball team.

There are many players in the Seido High School baseball team, and Supervisor Kataoka is also extremely strict.

Masuko, who was the core of the team before, was once sent to the second army because of a little action in dodge ball.

How can this little guy not worry?
However, just when the little guy was worried, he suddenly heard his name from Director Kataoka's mouth.

"Sawamura, you start preparing from the third inning as a reliever for this game."

"Yes! Promise to complete the mission, boss!!"

Upon hearing this order, Sawamura's expression suddenly changed 180 degrees.

He promised Kataoka emphatically.

However, the veins on Director Kataoka's forehead popped out at this time.

"Who is your boss? Give me another name!"

Although the supervisor's tone is not good.

But the friends of the Seido High School baseball team could still faintly hear the doting mixed with it.

Their supervisor was actually very satisfied with Sawamura.

After the two pitchers were arranged, Director Kataoka set his sights on Kawakami again.

"It goes without saying how important the finishing work is. Leave it to you, I can rest assured!!"

Kawakami, who had always been ignored, was moved to tears when he heard his supervisor's words.

Although he knew it in his heart.

The person who is really responsible for finishing the game is not him, but their team's ace.

Even if Director Kataoka shouts the slogan louder and louder.

Everyone also knows that if the last resort comes, their supervisor will definitely put the ace on the mound.

Just like the last game.

According to their original plan, there was no need for Jiang Gu to play.

But in the end, when the situation was critical, wouldn't he be sent up anyway?
"Go for tomorrow's game!!"

As long as they win tomorrow's game, they can successfully qualify from the group.

Become the top eight in Koshien.

"Yes!!"

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day came in the blink of an eye.

The friends of the Seido High School baseball team were prepared early. They rushed to the Koshien stadium in advance and went to the locker room to change equipment.

Originally everything was going according to plan.

Unexpectedly, just as they were preparing, Takashima Rei suddenly rushed into the locker room.

The friends are changing clothes, all of them are shirtless, and some are changing their pants.

Seeing Rei Takashima appear, everyone quickly covered themselves with clothes.

"Xiao Li, what are you doing?"

Miyuki, who was half-dressed, looked at the deputy director of his baseball club with a puzzled face.

"On this occasion, please address me by title!"

Takashima Rei looked serious.

It would be even more perfect if it weren't for the blush on her cheeks.
