Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 374 The Terrible, Invulnerable Demon King! (Two in One)

"Got the third out!"

The players of the Troll Otojukumaki High School baseball team had smiles on their faces.

They were excited, more excited than ever before.

Although they lost one point, their team was almost in despair.

But at that time, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team felt that the most difficult thing to accept was not the point that had been lost.

Points that have been lost cannot be regained.

They were thinking in their hearts that they must not lose any more points.

If they only lost that one point, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team would still have some confidence.

After all, if they want to win the game, they have to get some points.

The score difference is only one point.

They can adjust their strategy and score a point before the official end of the game.

In this way, the scores of both sides were tied.

After entering the extra innings, they will try to clear the ball from other pitchers and score points.

The players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team are not unaware of the difficulty of this matter.

But even if it is difficult, they have to do it.

Because only in this way can they have a chance to turn the tide.

Otherwise, they might as well just admit defeat.

I have to say that the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team were trained very well by their family supervisors.

If the players were from other teams, even if they were from other top national teams.

Faced with this predicament, we might as well give up the competition.

But they never had such an idea from beginning to end.

Even if they were behind in the game, they were thinking about how to catch up.

"The next step is to attack. It's no big deal for the opponent. They just got that one point. As long as we get the opportunity, we can easily catch up."

Matsui said to his friends around him with a smile.

This player has a happy personality except when he is in the batter's box.

Even though their team is facing considerable difficulties right now, Matsui remains very optimistic.

His optimistic mood naturally affected others.

The players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team quickly recovered after a bit of setbacks.

Smiles appeared on their faces again.

The game is already at this point, no matter what they do, the situation cannot be changed.

Instead of facing the next game with a sad face.

They might as well think carefully about how to turn the situation around?

Regarding this point, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team are very knowledgeable.

Their team was not so strong at the beginning during its rise.

When they were not as strong as they are now, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team had already played many games.

During those games, there was one thing that the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team still remember vividly.

That is not giving up.

The first game they won, or the first victory they got.

The scene was very ugly.

In the first inning alone, they lost a full four runs.

If anyone else watched their team's game, they probably wouldn't have any expectations for them.

However, it was precisely because of their players' unwillingness to give up that they were able to turn the tide in the end.

The final score of that game was 12:18.

They went from being four points behind their opponents to being six points ahead.

This has also become the most classic game case of the Troll Datongjuan High School baseball team.

Whenever the players on their team are in trouble, they will encourage each other in this way.

They will use this method to motivate themselves to move forward.

Like now.

Although they were one point ahead of the Qingdao High School baseball team.

But so what?
There is still some time before the end of the game.

They can make good use of this time to complete the turnaround.

"There will definitely be a chance, as long as we try our best!"

Hearing the calls from their friends, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team all raised their heads.

Practice every day on the snow-covered court.

This caused the young men of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team to suffer a lot during training.

But it’s not bitter at all, it’s all free food.

Take the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team for example. Compared with the players of other teams, their resilience is unmatched.

They are strong!

Tenaciously strong.

So much so that by now, they have recovered quickly.

The coach of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team was very pleased after seeing this scene.

Although he always felt that the guys under his command were not perfect yet.

But he also had to admit that these guys were becoming better and better.

Just like now, the qualities they demonstrate are the best in the country.

It is something that the players from other teams can hardly achieve even in their dreams.

"Then we will seize every opportunity to catch up with the points."

Upon hearing the supervisor's order, the players of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team were as excited as if they had been injected with a shot of chicken blood.

Their eyes are all red.

"come on!!"

"Who's afraid of whom?"

The teammates in the Qingdao High School baseball team's rest area soon noticed their opponents' performance.

"Are these guys sticky? They are too clingy!!"

The friends couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

It’s not their fault that they don’t respect their opponents. It’s just that their opponents’ performance is too weird.

Faced with such a huge crisis, how could these guys still survive?
Is this really something that ordinary people can do?
No matter what others think, at least the members of the Seidou High School baseball team find it difficult to accept this.

In this case, even the significance of their scoring that point would be greatly discounted.

Just as the friends were thinking this, Jōguchi turned his arm.

Seeing his action, his friends broke out in a cold sweat.

"What's wrong?"

"Do you feel unwell?"

For the members of the Seidou High School baseball team, the most difficult thing for them to accept at this time was the accident involving Furutani.

No matter what kind of accident it is, they find it hard to accept.

This is not the fault of my partners.

The truth is, they cannot withstand any unexpected injuries.

Especially at this time.

When he heard that Furuya had an accident, Ozawamura immediately raised his head.

Compared with the other two pitchers of Seidou High School baseball team, his performance was undoubtedly the most active.

He gives people the feeling that he is the most likely to replace Fūya and continue pitching.

Just as everyone was thinking this, Akihiro Jōgō shook his head.

"I'm very good!"

As the ace of the Seidou High School baseball team, he must take responsibility.

Jōtani knew very well how heavy the burden on his shoulders was.
Once he can't hold on, the entire Seidou High School baseball team will be in bigger trouble.

"I thought I could play?" Ozawamura looked unwilling.

The young man was obviously ready to play.

His parents also came specially to watch his game.

It's not that Furuya doesn't understand Sawamura's feelings.

The little guy is doing well in his hometown. Besides his close family, those who came to cheer him on include his rumored girlfriend Wakana and his friends from his hometown.

Everyone hopes that Sawamura will have a bright future.

In fact, Sawamura Eijun is now very promising.

As a rotation pitcher for the Seidou High School baseball team in his first year, he has the potential to dominate the country with the team.

This experience alone is enough to make him a minor celebrity.

Not to mention, because of his special talent, some professional scouts have already expressed interest in him.

What an honor is this?
You can't compare with Akira Fōgani, the ace of their team is unique.

It is unique not only in the Seidou High School baseball team, but also in the whole country.

No one can compare.

Just take Furuya out of the picture and just look at the Seidou High School baseball team and the other players.

Sawamura Eijun's excellence is obvious to all.

There is no doubt about the vision of professional scouts.

Even though the Qingdao High School baseball team is currently in its heyday, almost everyone is revolving around them.

But among the players on their team, there are actually not many who can really attract the favor of professional scouts.

Except for Yuki and Miyuki, and Furuya who is not in the ranking.

Next comes Sawamura.

He received more attention from professional scouts than any other player.

Sawamura is so outstanding, especially in front of his family.

He wants to go out there and show his pitching ability.

This is of course no problem.

It's human nature.

However, Akira Fōtani will not give up his position on the pitcher's mound just because of such human nature.

As the team's ace, he must lead everyone to victory in such a crucial game.

Even Sawamura could do it.

He couldn't put the responsibility on Sawamura either.

Even if Sawamura is willing, he can't do it.

"Just stay in the rest area and I will help you become a champion."

Hearing what Jōgō Aki said, all the friends were stunned.

In their minds, their team's ace is very young.

But their ace is definitely not someone who likes to talk nonsense.

As long as he says it, he can definitely do it.

Such a steady ace can actually joke?

The friends were naturally surprised.

But after the surprise, they felt extremely relieved.

Since their ace has made such a guarantee, it means that there will be absolutely no problem with today's game.

Their ace will definitely settle everything and lead everyone to victory.

"In the top of the sixth inning, the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team is on offense."

The game reached the top of the sixth inning, and the seventh batter of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team walked into the batter's box.

He was very nervous.

As the lower hitters of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team, their team coach had specifically reminded them when they went on the field to prepare to hit.

The current ace of the Qingdao High School baseball team does not have very good physical strength.

If his physical strength is not very good, there is a high possibility that his pitching will have problems.

And the ace of Seidou High School baseball team is very smart.

Once he realizes this problem, he is very likely to slow down his pitch.

Just like he did on the court before.

Once he starts to slow down the velocity of his pitches, that's the Troll Otomaki High School baseball team's chance.

The supervisor of the Troll Otojukami High School baseball team gave instructions to his players.

The instructions were very clear.

"If there's a chance, hit the ball out. If there's no way to hit the ball out, increase his pitch count."

In short, they just have one word.

No matter what, the ace of the Seidou High School baseball team cannot be allowed to have an easy time.

Even if there is no other way, just take the hit from him.

You also need to find ways to deplete your opponent's physical strength.

The players of the Troll Otojukami High School baseball team were very confident that as long as they could drain all of Fōgiya Akatsuki's physical strength.

So they have a great chance of winning today's game.

Even if they have no other options, it doesn't matter if they just take points directly from Fōgiya Akatsuki.

He is not the only one on the Seidou High School baseball team. The players on the Troll Otomaki High School baseball team are also the same. It is the same for them to score points from others.

They can still win the game.

This is the thought in the minds of hitters standing in the batter's box today.

"We must win, we must win the game!"

He stared at Fūya with sharp eyes.

It seems that all the ace of the Qingdao High School baseball team needs to do is throw the baseball in his hand.

He would hit the ball out without hesitation.

The die-hard supporters of the Seidou High School baseball team in the stands were a little confused after seeing the other team's performance.

What did this batter from the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team eat?
Where did he get such confidence?

Even the best hitter in the country can't stand in front of Akira Fōgaya.

I'm afraid no one has the confidence to do so?
Just as people were thinking this, the showdown on the field was about to begin.

On the pitcher's mound, Fūya took a stance and threw the baseball decisively.

His pitching movements are no different from before.

The white baseball whizzed out and was in front of the batter in the blink of an eye.

The 7th batter of the Troll Otojuan High School baseball team had already made a plan in his mind long before the official match.

He was thinking about making a final push and fighting with Jyoutani to the end.

I have to say, the idea is still very good.

But the reality was too cruel. When he saw the white baseball flying towards him, the troll, the seventh batter of the Otojuan High School baseball team, was stunned.

So fast!

He had already had a round of duel with Akatsuki Fōgaya before.

According to the troll, the seventh batter of the Otojuan High School baseball team, he believes that the two sides will face off again now.

He is more experienced and no longer afraid of baseball.

He should be able to take advantage of a lot.

But this is not the case.

In his eyes, the white baseball seemed to be flying even faster than before.

He didn't have time to react before the baseball flashed past him.

"how come?"

Just as he was thinking this, the white baseball had already slipped into the catcher's glove.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!!!"
