Ace of Diamonds Golden Boots Silver Rod

Chapter 531 Before the War

at night,

"If you run like this, you won't be able to run for long!"

Xiandao had dinner early tonight and planned to run for a while, but not long after he ran, these three people came.

Then, these three people started to get serious and started sprinting.

Xiandao didn't know how many times he had been detained by them, so he looked at these three people speechlessly.

Just as Xiandao said, not long after they ran, Fenggu, who was not physically strong enough, began to fall behind.

"Aken-senpai, aren't you taking a rest?" Sawamura saw that Fukitani was dying, so he began to ask Kawakami-senpai next to him.

"You should rest first! Sawamura!"

"No no! I'm... completely fine!"

"Me too!"

When the two were competing against each other, Jiang Gu, who had recovered some physical strength, immediately accelerated to catch up.

"Ah! He is resurrected again!!

You should rest quickly! Falling valley laser! !

Senior Ah Xian! You look very bad! "Sawamura shouted loudly when he heard the sound of Fangtani running, and then discovered that Kawakami-senpai was the first among them to die.

"So, you can't last long like this!" Xiandao still maintained his own rhythm.

Not long after, these three people were killed one after another. After saying goodbye to Xiandao, they went back together!

Sendō, who was still running, didn't notice at all the conversation between Watanabe-senpai and Miyuki on the steps.

When Sendao returned, there was no one at the stadium.

"I can have a good sleep today!" Xiandao was ready to go back after his body was completely warmed up.

This guy uses jogging to help him sleep!

……

"I can't stop people who want to quit..." Watanabe, who returned to the dormitory, lowered his head and recalled what Miyuki said to him.

"No...it's not like that!" Unknowingly, Senior Watanabe was biting his lip and clenching his fists.

"Crack!"

"Ah!" Senior Watanabe woke up with a start when he heard the sound of the door opening behind him.

"What's wrong? Watanabe-san?

Standing at the door in a daze! The lights are not on either! Sendao, who had just opened the dormitory door, found Watanabe-senpai standing at the door, so he asked.

"Oh no!

nothing! I was just thinking about a question! "Senior Watanabe just found an excuse to get away with it.

"That's it!

Since I interrupted you, just sit down and think! "Although he knew that the other party had something on his mind, Xiandao didn't ask any more questions and said with a smile.

After saying that, Xiandao began to change clothes and prepare to take a shower.

"Immortal way!" Senior Watanabe said suddenly.

"Ok?"

"No! As expected, let's forget it!" Watanabe decided to give up and talk to Sendao.

“Souga!

It seems that Watanabe-san is troubled by something!

However, no matter what, if you want to say something, I will listen to you at any time!

Although it is you, Watanabe-san, who makes the decision!

……

Then I'm going to take a shower first! "After saying that, Xiandao had already changed his clothes during the pause.

“In the end, I didn’t say anything!

But, that’s fine. I never said I wanted to quit, so just pretend that nothing happened. "After Watanabe-senpai left Sendao, he decided to pretend that the conversation with Miyuki never happened.

Sendō, who stood at the door for a few seconds, heard that Watanabe-senpai did not change his mind and left silently.

This time, Xiandao really didn't know what happened.

These iconic events are all deep in Xiandao's memory. If he wants to recall such an event, he needs something specific to evoke his memories.

Watanabe-senpai is a bit introverted to begin with, so Sendao has no way of knowing when and why he will become troubled.

……

"Sawamura! Go to bed quickly!

Otherwise, you’ll have to fall asleep in class again!

This kind of thing will soon be reported to the supervisor! ! "

Sendao, who returned from going to the bathroom in the middle of the night, heard the shouts from Qianzono.

"No way?

It's half past one now!

That guy is still practicing! "Xian Dao heard the voice and didn't know what to say.

So we headed towards the indoor practice field.

"Maesono-san! Kudo-san, Higashio-san! And Haruichi, have you just finished practice?" Sendō met several people returning from the city's practice ground on the road.

"It's not Kudo and I! I just saw that the lights of the indoor practice field were still on..." Senior Higashio explained.

"Is that Baga still practicing?

I just heard Maezono-san’s shout! "

"Did you hear that?" Maezono-senpai realized that his voice was too loud and might disturb others, so he felt a little embarrassed.

"Well! I just came out to pee.

Then I'll go take a look first! "Xian Dao said goodbye to several people.

The next day, Wednesday, Sawamura fell asleep during class just as Maezono said.

It can only be said that there are no classes for Li-chan, supervisors, etc. in the first grade...

Needless to say, Coach Kataoka, Rei-chan likes to target people very much.

On the third day of training, Coach Kataoka finally started to add more defensive exercises.

evening,

"Ok?"

Just after the training, Sendao saw Fang Gu take off his shoes alone and massage his feet next to the field.

"Axiao!

Am I tired? Xiandao walked over and said with a smile.

"Xian Dao-san!

...My right foot has been feeling a little sore lately! "

“Souga?

Maybe the recent practice has been too intense!

Starting today, no independent practice is allowed!

In addition, I will tell the supervisor to reduce the intensity of your practice!

When your body needs your help, it will respond to you with various feelings.

Therefore, you must “listen” to your body’s feedback! "

"I...!" Jiang Gu still wanted to defend himself,

"It's decided!

If it hurts, it’s not good. Put your feet out!

My massage is very good!

I wouldn't care about ordinary people! "Xian Dao rarely asks for surrender in a commanding tone, but every time he cannot refuse.

So Jiangu can only be at his mercy...

"That's right. Let's observe for a few days before making a judgment!" Seeing that Jiang Gu no longer had the desire to speak, Xiandao explained calmly.

"hiss!"

"what happened?"

"No! Very comfortable!"

"Really! Don't make such a misleading sound!" Xiandao was really helpless about this.

……

"Senior A-Xian!

If you are tired, you can go back first! "

"I'm fine, you are...

If you are tired, go back! "

"I'm totally fine!"

"Me too!"

"Stop holding on! It's because of this that Jiang Gu was banned from practicing independently by Immortal Dao!

It’s not good to be injured!

Senior Ah Xian! "

"I'm OK!"

In the evening, Sawamura once again competed with Aken-senpai!

Sawamura also doesn't have a long memory. After going back with Xian-senpai to take a shower, he went to the indoor practice field to practice alone until midnight.

You can imagine what the results will be the next day.

As for Fangtani, after receiving another foot massage from Sendō, he lay on the tatami alone and practiced throwing balls with one hand.

Since I have been practicing since the summer, I am very proficient in the movements. I no longer need to concentrate on it and can complete it just by relying on muscle memory.

So Jiang Gu spent a long time on the ground thinking wildly. Finally, he recalled in his mind his performance in the Imperial East War and Wozawamura’s perfect rescue...

"Yeah!" Jiang Gu thought of this and pursed his lips.

"Bump!!" The ball hit the ceiling hard, leaving a lot of dust.

"Oh!!" Kanemaru, who lived upstairs in Fanggu and was lying down playing with his mobile phone, suddenly sat up in shock.

"Huh?!!!" Senior Ono, who was already sleeping in the same dormitory as Fang Gu, jumped out of bed.

"Jiang...Jianggu! Stop!"

"bump!!!"

"Are you going to break the ceiling again!!!"

"bump!!!"

There was nothing he could do about Jiang Gu's reluctance. He couldn't resist the immortal way.

And listening to Sendao's words, Coach Kataoka would naturally not refuse.

Therefore, Fangtani’s daily practice only consisted of throwing a few pitches in the bullpen to adjust his condition, and a few batting drills in the mat, in order to prepare for Nanamori’s game.

Time also flew by, and in the blink of an eye it was already Friday, the day before the game.

The training intensity of the whole team suddenly dropped in order to be in the best condition to deal with various emergencies.

Although Qisen is an opponent used for training, if something goes wrong midway, the policy can be changed immediately.

Coach Kataoka also called Sendō and Miyuki to the observation room beside the court to confirm before the game.

"Sendō! How is Fangtani's condition?" Coach Kataoka's first question was naturally about the ace's condition.

“According to him, he is still a little sour!

But there has been some relief! "Xian Dao said.

"It looks like it's just ordinary fatigue!

In this case, I will consider letting him go to left field for tomorrow's game! "

"Left field?" Minister Ohta asked doubtfully.

"what!

I'll keep him ready to play like he always was!

But if there is a slight neglect, I will replace him immediately!

Immortal way!

Continue to monitor his condition and let me know immediately if there are any signs of injury. "

"I see!"

As for why he doesn't think it's an injury, the reason is that Seido practices a lot, and Furitani has poor physical strength and likes to compete with Sawamura.

So it’s normal to have body aches and screams!

“Is this a penalty from the previous game?

This is really harsh! "Coach Ochiai asked.

“Even if it’s left field! You have to look like an ace.

His teammates are all looking at him! "Coach Kataoka replied.

"I wonder if that guy can realize this!"

"If he can't do it, it means he still needs to grow!"

"Then who will start first..." Minister Ota couldn't help but ask.

As a conservative, he naturally still hopes that Kawakami will play.

Although Sawamura can shoot inside and outside corners, his ball control depends on the condition of the day, which is very troublesome.

Minister Ohta still hopes for a good start.

"I'm sorry!!" Sawamura's voice came in at this time.

This was no coincidence, it was just that Sawamura arrived a little slower.

There are some things that I still don’t want this idiot Sawamura to know.

"Subordinate Sawamura has come in!

Please... what's the important thing this time?

In today’s class, I basically spent all my time sleeping... I’m already reflecting on it! "Sawamura saluted with his left hand and began his self-destruction journey.

"That's it!" Miyuki said with a surprised look on his face.

"Isn't this the case?!" Sawamura also reacted...

The foreshadowing of Sawamura's self-destruction had been laid a few days ago.

Sendao also understood what was going on. A few days ago, Maezono told him that it would reach the ears of the supervisor.

He instinctively thought that because of this incident, he was going to admit his mistake and seek leniency, but in the end he blew himself up...

"Supervision!" Minister Ota also understood that the next game was completely a training exercise.

“We’ll talk about sleeping in class later!

You will start tomorrow!

Be well prepared! "

"Hi!!!" Although coach Kataoka said that he would talk to him about sleeping in class later, but in front of the starter, nothing mattered.

"That's right! Immortal!" Coach Kataoka suddenly said with a smile.

"Ok?"

"Tomorrow's attack, you are not allowed to take any shots at bad balls!" Coach Kataoka said with a smile on his face.

"Huh?" Xiandao was stunned.

"Can……"

"You can take the shot if you want, but it doesn't matter what the result is, that is, whether it's a foul, an out, or a home run.

If you shoot a bad ball once, I will make you run around the playground ten times! “Coach Kataoka really let himself go in this game.

"Oh!" Xiandao was a little dizzy.

Miyuki next to him had already begun to snicker.

If Xiandao could bear not to take some bad shots that are easy to hit, it would not be Xiandao.

This idea has actually been in Coach Kataoka's mind for a long time, and today he finally has a "suitable" opponent to try it out.

The purpose is naturally to help Xian Dao and quickly increase the experience and learning efficiency of watching good and bad balls.

Therefore, what Sendō didn't know was that he originally thought that Coach Kataoka was letting himself go out of curiosity, but in fact Sendō's hard days had just begun.

Although Coach Kataoka himself doesn’t know if it will work, he must be brave enough to try it!

What Coach Kataoka didn’t know was that his idea would eventually make Sendō famous and successful.

This week was basically training with Daocheng Industrial as the imaginary enemy.

However, it does not affect Qingdao's combat effectiveness in the second round. As long as they maintain their usual state, they will still be the famous sect.

Time soon arrived in the evening, and everyone gathered at the indoor practice field, waiting for Coach Kataoka to announce the starting list for tomorrow's game.

“Announcing tomorrow’s starting lineup!

A stick! Shortstop, Kuramochi! "

"Hi!"

"Second bat! Right field, Hakushu!"

"Hi!"

"Three bats! Second baseman, Minato!"

"...Hi!" Xiaochun, who was still worried when the second stick was not her, was slightly stunned when she heard that she had become the third stick, and then immediately responded.

"..."

"Six bats! First baseman! Front park!"

"Hi!"

"Seven bats! Left field, Fang Gu!"

"Hi!"

Others who didn't know the details looked at each other in confusion. Jianggu's practice volume had decreased. They thought they were preparing for Daocheng Industrial to build up his physical fitness!

Coach Kataoka did not pause and continued to announce.

"Eight bats, third baseman, Kanemaru!"

"Oh! Hi!!"

“Start!!

Am I finally going to be the first too?

Thank you very much, Sendō-san! "Kanemaru and Tojo looked at each other, still a little unbelievable. He was so happy that he called Sendao an honorific in his heart as a thank you.

"Nine bats! Pitcher, Sawamura!"

"Hi!"

Others were a little confused about Sawamura's starting position, but many were happy for him.

　Asking for votes...
