Chapter 70: Sense of Presence

With a chill in his heart, Miyuki decisively gave Tanpa a signal.

Seeing the sign given by Miyuki, Tanpa shuddered subconsciously.

'This guy is always like this. His Game calling is always so dangerous.'

'As a Senpai, how can I back down right now?'

With a steeled heart, Tanpa threw the ball in almost the same position twice.

Whoosh!

On the strike zone, Akiba's face instantly paled.

The location is exactly the same as before.

'Damn, you even dare to throw two Forkballs in a row!'

Akiba Kazuma reluctantly swings the bat.

Ping!

After the white ball was hit, it bounced high at the home plate.

Miyuki took a few steps forward, opened his Mitt, and steadily caught the dropped ball into his Mitt.

SNAP!

"OUT!"

The ball flew high at home plate, and the batter was Out.

Akiba had a surprised expression on his face.

'That ball Just now, it turned out to be an ordinary Straight ball!'

He subconsciously thought it was a Forkball, so his swing would inevitably be a little down, and he was waving the bat lower…

At the end of the play, Akiba turned his head and gave Miyuki a deep look.

He felt a different fascination from Miyuki Game calling.

'Maybe, catcher is a very interesting position, not necessarily bad.'

Right now, no one realizes that a very famous catcher was born in the Tokyo area in the future!

This birth process was just because Miyuki tricked a Batter.

"Nice Ball!"

Miyuki vigorously passed the ball back to Tanpa!

After receiving the ball, Tanpa nodded at Miyuki.

The cooperation of the two is getting better.

"Second Batter, first baseman, Mishima-kun."

Right now, the 'great genius' Mishima Yuta took the strike zone.

On his way to the strike zone, he walked against Akiba.

"Don't aim for a Straight ball or a Forkball! The opponent's catcher seems to be able to guess people's minds. Once you aim for a Straight ball or a Forkball to hit, you are likely to be tricked by him."

Akiba's meaning is very clear, that is to let Mishima target the high drop Curve and hit it.

Mishima nodded slightly.

Akiba's opinion is almost the same as the order given to him by Todoroki Raizou in the rest area.

In other words, both of them felt that it was unrealistic to continue aiming for the Straight ball after Tanpa showed the Forkball.

So now, you might as well target and hit that Curve with a high drop.

'That is a good advice!'

Mishima turned his head and glanced at Raichi behind him!

'I just don't know, what is the order from the Coach to Raichi?'

How about letting him also aim for a high drop Curve? Or, have him hit Tanpa's new Split-finger ball.

Even if you don't consider the miscellaneous thought, just thinking about hitting Tanpa's new Breaking ball that has just been developed is pretty cool too!

"I..."

Mishima turned his head and glanced at the Coach and his son, hesitating to say something.

With ambitions bigger than the universe, he actually wanted to talk to his own Coach.

'I didn't come to Yakushi just to help the two of you!'

'When we first met, it was because I accidentally saw the swing of Raichi…'

'I'm happy to learn baseball with you, but I never thought about being the number two on the team!'

On the mound, Tanpa throws a ball.

The ball was flying high as if it was going to hit Mishima in the face.

Even Mishima was instantly timid.

He subconsciously wanted to take a step back and avoid baseball.

'No, the genius Mishima, could not be defeated in such a place!!!'

The bat was raised high, and Mishima didn't take a step back, staring at the baseball.

After the baseball approached Mishima, it was as if the baseball suddenly stopped.

Then quickly fall to the strike zone!

'It is coming!'

'The high drop Curveball!'

Mishima gritted his teeth and swung decisively against this ball!

Ping!

The white ball was hit and flew to the outfield.

"Ha ha ha! Superintendent, did you see it, I hit it out!"

Mishima raised his fist happily, rushed over to first base, and ran toward second base.

And then, a small white ball like a sharp arrow flew to the second base in an instant.

Mishima was startled and had to go back to first base.

In left field, Sawamura stopped the ball after the first point of the drop. And when it was too late to pass first base, it passed to second base. Although he couldn't stop Mishima from getting first base, he could be considered to be staring at first base.

On the mound, Tanpa gave Sawamura a thumbs up.

It means he defends well.

Sawamura laughed a little embarrassedly and raised his Mitt in response.

'In the same position, if it was Isashiki-senpai or Shiratsu-senpai, Mishima might have been solved Out.'

He was a little weaker on defense in left field after all.

Mishima broke out in a cold sweat, then stared at Sawamura in the left field.

'As expected of the man whom the great genius Mishima respects, his skills are indeed strong! Even in the outfield, he can show an extraordinary sense of presence.'

In the rest area of ​​Seidou.

"Sawamura's defense is getting better and better. This lineup should be applicable even in Koshien." Ochiai pinched his goatee and commented.

Kataoka nodded.

Sawamura's progress in field defense made him extremely delighted.

And now, with the display of Sawamura's outfield skills, his status in Seidou is becoming more and more important. Now it seems to be the main starter of Seidou High School! As long as there is no problem with his own state, Seidou will never replace Sawamura off the field.

"The summer tournament is a knockout competition, and it's all over if you lose one game. No team will put itself in a situation where the Ace cannot play."

Just like the Sankou High School will not let Manaka go, Inashiro Industrial will not let Narumiya Mei go, and Yakushi High School, once Sanada is on the field, will definitely lose any chance of victory…

It's all the same!

No one will leave regrets in their summer.

One Out, runner at first base!

"Third Batter, third baseman, Todoroki-kun!"

It was Raichi's turn to bat.

Everyone in Yakushi High School was excited.

"Raichi, it's up to you!"

"Hit it out!"

"End it right here, Crush the pitcher!!! "

"If it's you, you can definitely do it!"

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki glanced at Yakushi High School, where the atmosphere suddenly changed. Then decisively gave Tanpa the sign for a head-to-head battle.

Although the score gap is still huge!

However, Yakushi High School is far from collapsing, and their fighting spirit is still high.

If you want to completely defeat them, you have to make them feel hopeless.

'And now is the best chance!'

'Believe in your own pitching, Tanpa-senpai! You can definitely beat the opponent!'

The sign Miyuki gave was extremely bold and decisive.

On the pitcher mound, Tanpa's eyes were unusually deep…

No one knew what he was thinking now, except himself.

"Really~"

After muttering two words in a low voice, Tanpa's eyes became fierce.

He is ready to fight Todoroki Raichi now!
