Ace of Diamonds: The Demon King Arrives

Chapter 59: Senior’s Battle for Dignity (First Update)
Before the players took the field, the players of the Seido High School baseball team gathered together.

A dozen players formed a circle, surrounding Tetsuya Yuuki, the captain of their team, in the center.

Seeing this scene, the fans in the stands were obviously excited.

"Are you coming?"

They seemed to have been looking forward to what was happening for a long time.

"It's coming, it's coming! I thought before that the players of the Seido High School baseball team weren't going to do this?"

"Before, it was before. The Seido High School baseball team has had bad luck in the past few years. Although its strength is not bad every year, it is always a little short of reaching Koshien. But this year is different..."

"With the addition of strong newcomers, it is just around the corner for them to enter Koshien. Even going one step further and dominating the country is not impossible."

In the eyes of the fans in the stands, the players of the Seido High School baseball team did this entirely because of Akatsuki Fukitani.It is precisely because of such strong newcomers that the Seido High School baseball team truly has the confidence to dominate the country.

But in fact, their guess was only half correct.

The players on the Aomichi High School baseball team did this because of Akatsuki Fukitani.

But it's not because Fang Guxiao's joining gave their team a brighter future.

But because they read the reports written by those reporters before, they were jealous!
Time goes back a day.

The boys from the Qingdao High School baseball team fell into deep thought while looking at the newspaper brought back by their team leader.

"A monster boy appears, who can compete with him?"

"[-] kilometers, the sixth-ranked pitcher in Koshien's history."

“The number one fastball pitcher in our era is actually a first grader!!!”

"Under the leadership of super rookies, the rise of the Qingdao High School baseball team is just around the corner..."

Almost all media reports focus on the role played by Akatsuki Fanggu in their team.

The second- and third-year players on their team have completely become a backdrop for Feng Guxiao.

No matter how open-minded the friends of the Qingdao High School baseball team are, they feel uncomfortable when faced with such comments and unanimous praise from reporters.

All the credit goes to Jiang Guxiao!

What about them?

What did they do in Qingdao?
Faced with such comments, the seniors of Qingdao High School did not directly shame Fang Gu Xiao, which was considered to be highly cultivated.

If the team were to change to another team, maybe at this time, the scandal of seniors bullying talented juniors would break out.

Although the seniors did not bully Jiang Guxiao, don't expect them to have any good feelings towards Jiang Guxiao.

Most of them ignored their junior, and Gu Xiao's popularity with the team suddenly dropped to freezing point.

"Aren't you worried?"

Even the very nervous Sawamura noticed this situation.He couldn't help but asked Jiang Guxiao.

Being isolated for doing too well on the team?
Rongcun Sawamura shudders just thinking about this kind of thing.

Fang Guxiao didn't seem to care at all about all this.

"Is my worry useful?"

"Maybe not……"

Sawamura was silent for a moment.

"This is the seniors' own problem, and I believe they can handle it."

"Then what if they..."

"I don't think something like that will really happen. So it's pointless to worry. If it does happen, it won't be too late to find a way."

Akatsuki Fukitani is still very confident in the character of the seniors on the Seido High School baseball team.

Besides, it's like he said it himself.

If something happens, he is confident that he can handle it himself.

As a player, Fang Guxiao could act as if she didn't care about this kind of thing.

But not their team's overseers and coaches.

Director Ota, who noticed this, immediately found the supervisor of their team and told Kataoka about the situation.

"What should we do?" Minister Ota rubbed his hands nervously and paced back and forth.

"The next two games are crucial to us. The championship of the Kanto Conference is also very valuable. If the players' private feelings affect their cooperation on the field, then... "

“You can have a little more confidence in the players on our team.”

Compared to the director of the baseball team, Rei Takashima, as the deputy director, undoubtedly feels much calmer.

"That's what I said, but just in case..."

"There is nothing to say. If there is a player who makes such a mistake, then we have no choice but to invite him to the rest area. If it is not possible, the second and third armies can also do it."

Rei Takashima, who looks weak on the outside, is very resolute when it comes to doing things.

"Wouldn't this be too cruel?"

Minister Ota obviously could not accept the proposal of their deputy minister.

"This is also for their own good. If they cannot recognize this as early as possible, their future path will be even more difficult to navigate."

Seeing that there was no way to convince his deputy, Minister Ohta could only place his hope entirely on their supervisor.

"Look..."

If their team's supervision is in line with Deputy Minister Rei Takashima's opinion.

Minister Ohta didn't plan to say anything more.

"Let them recognize it! Recognizing themselves and the value of Fang Gu Xiao will help our team go further. Tell Fang Gu Xiao and everyone on the team that in the next game, Fang Gu Xiao Not going to pitch, just being an outfielder and the team's seventh bat..."

Director Kataoka’s idea seemed to take into account the opinions of both Minister Ohta and Rei Takashima.

But in fact, his approach was tougher than Rei Takashima.

"Tomorrow, is it the semifinals?"

Ohta, who is the head of the baseball club, asked uncertainly.

You know, since their team was unable to enter Koshien, the Qingdao High School baseball team has not received any decent honors for a long time.

Although the gold content of the Kanto Conference cannot be compared with Koshien.

But if they can win the championship, the pressure on their team supervisors, including their entire Qingdao High School baseball team's coaching staff, will be much less.

"Ok, deal!"

Supervisor Kataoka said firmly.

It was obvious that he had made up his mind and had to do it.

It is different from what Minister Ohta worried about.

The second and third grade players on the Qingdao High School baseball team were all extremely excited when they received the news.

From their standpoint, this is obviously a battle for their dignity.

Under the spring sunshine, Captain Yuki pointed to his heart.

"who are we?"

"The king's green way!"

"Who is the one who sweats more than anyone else?"

"Qingdao!"

"Who has shed more tears than anyone else?"

"Qingdao!!"

"Are you ready?"

"Awww~~~~"

"Being proud of Qingdao, we have only one goal, to dominate the country!!!"

"Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!"
