Chapter 8: Another monster

"Gee!"

"In the freshman team, in addition to the monster of Furuya, there is actually another one?!"

"This year's freshmen, it's amazing!"

Now In the bullshed, Miyuki Kazuya said

As a catcher of the First Army.

He naturally noticed the performance of Furuya, Satoru some time ago.

Every pitch in the bullpen is deafening, and it's the popping sound of a high-speed straight ball rushing into a glove.

So.

Miyuki is also looking forward to Furuya, Satoru's performance.

It turned out to be unexpected....

This junior named Asad....

He can actually throw a high-speed straight ball comparable to Furuya, Satoru!

Nope....

More than compare....

Miyuki is also in the memory.

After comparing the high-speed straight balls of the two.

Found Asad's high-speed straight ball, it seems to be a little faster?

"Hmm..."

"It must be an illusion..."

There is no speed tester, just based on the comparison in the impression, Furuya, Satoru does not dare to draw conclusions.

But.

Although it is not known who is faster.

But Miyuki is also very clear!

Asad's high-speed straight ball, and Furuya, Satoru's high-speed straight ball, have reached the national level!

Plus the power shown by Asad is comparable to Narumiya, Mei but is a lot faster than Narumiya. If he can improve his ball control and isn't afraid in official match then he can become No:1 Pitcher in The county. Not just middle school.

His potential is unlimited...

And Furuya, Satoru is also with great potential.

If the two of them are in the official competition, they can also exert this strength...

The combat power of that seido!

There will be a sea change!

Thinking of the bright and brilliant future, even if Miyuki is a calm person, he can't help but get his blood boiling at this time!

...

After Asad got off the field.

Head coach Kataoka called Furuya, Satoru up.

If you want to prove your Furuya, Satoru, naturally there is no leftover.

Shout!

A baseball that resembled a white missile shot out from Furuya, Satoru's hand!

"So fast!"

The freshman catcher crouched behind home plate, his pupils shrunk.

Furuya, Satoru and Asad participated in the freshman test together, so this catcher naturally knew that Furuya, Satoru's pitching was extremely powerful.

But...

Even if you are mentally prepared!

Faced with a high-speed ball with a speed of 150 per hour, the freshman catcher still couldn't react!

Or rather!

Although he wants to take it!

But before the action was made, the baseball had already passed through the position of the glove!

And float upwards!

Finally bumped into the face protector of head coach Kataoka!

Fortunately, Kataoka leaned back at the critical moment and avoided a frontal impact, so he didn't suffer much damage.

But face protectors.

But did not escape the result of being knocked off.

"Teach

"Coach..."

"Are you all right?"

"Coach!"

The members asked worriedly.

The corners of Kataoka Tiexin's mouth turned up slightly, and he looked at Furuya, Satoru and said, "Furuya, you passed!" "

"Participate in the training of the First Army from tomorrow!"

The other department members were suddenly taken aback.

Following Asad just now, another freshman entered the First Army?

Although unwillingly.

No matter how to persuade the coach.

Kataoka Tetsushin didn't listen to them.

After all.

In the first grade catcher.

There really isn't a high-speed ball that can catch Dawn.

"Abominable..."

In the rest area of the second and third grades.

Koichiro Tanba watched as two consecutive first-year pitchers entered the First Army.

However, he still did not get any order to enter the first army, which made him very angry.

So....

In the next race!

In order to prove himself, Koichiro Tanba took out two hundred percent of his strength!

Again and again a super large arc of the curveball.

Let the freshman team hitters not even get to base, let alone score.

For Tanba's performance.

Head coach Kataoka has always looked in the eye.

But.

He didn't change his mind.

Because....

Tanba's experience of being put into the Second Army was not once or twice....

And every time he went to the second army.

Because of the highlight performance of the practice match, Kataoka will transfer him back to the first

And then....

On the official competition....

Because his performance was too crotch-pulling, he always created scoring opportunities for his opponents, and he was sent to the second army!

Countless times I have expected Tanba....

But he was disappointed by Tanbo countless times....

Kataoka Tetsushin's patience!

It's all depleted!

So!

Be in the freshman ranks!

After the two monsters appeared, Asad and Furuya, Satoru, Kataoka Tetsushin no longer gave Tanbo a chance!

Or rather!

Kataoka Tetsushin did not dare to give it!

He was afraid that Tanbo would 'act' again when he arrived at the official competition!

Of course.

Three years together.

Kataoka Tetsushin still has a deep master-apprentice affection for Tanba.

So.

Today although did not let Tanbo return to the First Army.

But if Tanba has a mentality in the future, Kataoka will still give him a chance to enter the official competition.

But!

If you also show crotch pulling!

That Kataoka dares to guarantee that Tanba's pitching career in the First Army will officially end!

...

"Since Asad and Furuya, Satoru finished throwing the ball, the momentum of the third grade seems to have weakened?"

"Well, the scoring efficiency is much lower."

"12 points in the first game, 9 points in the second game, only 3 points in the third game, and even worse in the fourth inning, only 1 point."

"Hey, hey, no matter how miserable it is, the second and third grades are also ahead!"

"It's true that the first grade hasn't scored a single point from the first inning to the fourth inning."

The audience outside the venue was full of discussion.

The reporter who came specially stepped aside and reported the news that Qingdao had two more monster newcomers to his superiors.

"What do you say? A high-speed straight ball thrown by a first-year freshman, and the third-year batter can't react in the slightest? "

"Wait! The head coach of Seido was smashed to the head by baseball?? "

"What? Not a head? Was the face shield knocked flying? "

"..."

With the debriefing of the reporters.

The magazines where the reporters work have paid the greatest attention to it, and have printed this report in the upcoming baseball magazine as quickly as possible.

...

On the pitch.

Kataoka watched several rounds in a row.

No eye-catching performance was found.

So.

He felt there was no point in proceeding.

But.

Just when Kataoka was about to announce the end of the match.

Suddenly, he noticed that Sawamura Eijun was in the fighter's preparation seat, waving a metal rod enthusiastically.

"Five more rounds!"

"You can't just lose the game!"

"I'll open the breakthrough!"

"Let's take back a point first!"

Obviously, Sawamura was not affected by the huge difference in the slightest.

But.

This fierce fighting spirit.

But let Asad, who had read the original.

I couldn't help but smile happily.

The heart said: "This should be the so-called 'one operation is as fierce as a tiger, and the record is zero and five', right?" "

"Hahahahaha~~~"

Sure enough!

Sawamura Eijun walked up to the beater's seat with enthusiasm.

Outcome.

Three swings.

All fell through.

Fortunately, the pitcher in the second and third grades, the ball thrown for the third time, due to the change of magnitude, caused the catcher to not catch it smoothly.

"It's not over yet!"

"The catcher missed the ball!"

In the novice rest area, the skinny little Minato Haruichi reminded loudly.

"Huh?"

Sawamura Eijun subconsciously turned his head and looked back.

Seeing that the baseball did roll out of the catcher's glove, he immediately dropped the metal bar and ran to first base with all his might.

"Hmm..."

"Senseless struggle!"

"If you don't hit the ball, even if you succeed on base, the coach's evaluation of you will not change in any way!"

The second- and third-year catcher snorted coldly, quickly picked up the ball, and passed it to the first baseman.

But.

In the end, it did not stop Sawamura Eijun from getting on base.

"It's really a fight..."

Asad looked at sawamura, who fell to the ground in order to get on the base, and sighed.

To know!

The biggest enemy of athletes is injury!

And Sawamura fell out in order to get on base!

That is, he was lucky and not injured, otherwise he would definitely lie in the infirmary for ten days and a half month!

Of course.

Sawamura was able to make the base.

The most critical factor is that the catcher Keisuke Miyanouchi missed the connection.

If you change to Miyuki Kazuya.

Such low-level mistakes will certainly not occur.

"No wonder Chris has been serving as a catcher since he was injured."

"Keisuke Miyashi's ability is indeed not comparable to Miyuki Kazuya."

...

After Sawamura went to base.

The low momentum of the freshman team has not changed.

Worse.

It's just one person on base.

In the second and third grades, everyone gathered to discuss strategies.

It's cruel!

Apparently a point, I don't want the first grade to get it!

"Good ball!"

"Good ball!"

"Good ball, batter out!"

"Good ball!"

"Good ball!"

"Good ball, batter out!"

Afterwards.

Two consecutive freshmen were knocked out by strikeouts.

The already low momentum of the freshman team was further reduced.

"Abominable!"

"No way, the coach doesn't give the code, the pitcher has just changed, and he can't grasp the timing at all!"

"By now, it's too late to get to base!"

The freshman batter, who had just been eliminated, complained as soon as he returned to the rest area.

"Gee..."

"Doesn't the other party also have a coach..."

"In the end, the fundamental factor in throwing pots is just not wanting to admit their own dishes..."

Asad shook his head slightly.

He didn't want to stay any longer in this low atmosphere.

Thereupon.

Learn from the Furuya, Satoru in the original book.

Getting up and looking at head coach Kataoka, he asked, "Coach, I don't have a chance to play anymore, I should be able to go back first, right?" "

Baseball games.

Once you are substituted, you can't play anymore.

And between talking.

Asad had already walked out of the rest area.

When he saw that Kataoka did not object, he continued to walk towards the cowshed.

"Huh?!"

"Hey! The game isn't over yet! "

"Yes!"

"Abominable! What is that guy thinking! "

"As long as you can be in the army, the game doesn't matter?"

For Asad's departure, the freshmen were indignant.

Hearsay.

Asad stopped.

Turning his head, he looked at the freshmen, chuckled and asked, "Did you get the fundamental purpose of this game wrong?" "

"Or do you really think that a team of young freshmen can beat the experienced senior seniors?"

The freshmen were stunned.

"Of course."

"It's a possibility."

"But only if every new student is united!"

"And yet..."

"Through my observations."

"Before the game started."

"Most people feel that there is no hope of victory because the opponent is a senior, and they treat this game with a passable mood."

"How can you win with such a bad attitude?"

"And this situation is obviously expected by the coach."

"Then here's the problem."

"Knowing that the freshman team is scattered and it is impossible to defeat the senior seniors, why did the coach arrange this kind of competition?"

"I want to..."

"As long as you have a little brain, you know that it is a test of how our group of freshmen will perform against stronger opponents!"

"Is it the courage to fight without fear of difficulties?"

"Or is it perfunctory?"

"Obviously..."

"Most freshmen don't expect this!"

"So..."

"Congratulations, your impression score in the coach's mind may have dropped to zero, or even negative!"

"Goodbye!"

"Future non-regular members!"

In the end, Asad waved his hand dashingly and left without taking a cloud away.

And the many new students in the rest area.

They all fell into a state of sluggishness.

Some of the freshmen who were treated casually in the previous competitions felt that their lives were gray.

They all feel.

The coach may have blacklisted himself.

"Sorry!"

"Request a change of team member!"

"I'll fight for you!"

While everyone was stunned, Kominato Haruichi came out of the rest area with a wooden stick.

"Huh!?"

"By virtue of... Why make up your own mind! "

"And isn't that a wooden bat?"

Kominato Haruichi's voice instantly woke up the freshmen.

However.

Wait for them to come to their senses.

Kominato has already walked to the beater's seat.

...

The other side.

Asad also came to the cowshed.

"Don't you see the last in the rest area? Black belly junior? "

Miyuki Kazuya, who was sitting here, said to Asad with a smile.

"Black belly?"

Asad was slightly stunned: "You heard it all?" "

Miyuki: "The cowshed is not far from your rest area, how can you not hear it?" "

Asad: "Really?" However, compared with the methods of the senior at the beginning of Seido high, I am not a black belly. "

Miyuki's face darkened: "Can you not mention this?" "

At first, I thought that I would be able to blend into the team smoothly.

Outcome.

Underestimated head coach Kataoka's observational power.

This led to running around the field until the morning practice to complete the punishment given by the coach.

If it weren't for the voluntary apology afterwards.

The way to estimate punishment is more than that.

But despite the past.

But this can be regarded as one of the few black histories of Miyuki.

Until now.

The rest of the First Army would make fun of him about it.

"Which thing? Is it the one Kominato, Haruichi ? "

"Hey! Almost! "

Then.

Yuuki, Tetsuya also came.

It was obviously seeing that Asad could leave the rest area.

In addition, Miyuki was also in the Here, so he silently followed.

Furuya, Satoru also left and came to join them and seeing Miyuki.

"I'm in the First Army now."

"Can you catch the ball for me?"

As soon as Furuya, Satoru saw Miyuki Kazuya, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Don't worry, watch the game first."

Miyuki is still quite curious about Kominato Haruichi, who stepped into the beater's seat.

Because of this junior.

But the younger brother of Ryosuke Kominato, who is good at dealing with various ball paths.

So.

Miyuki Kazuya now wants to see Kominato Haruichi's strike performance.
