Brotherhood of Hearts

Saturday, sunny, no wind, 28 degrees.

At 1:45 in the afternoon, Matsumoto Stadium, Tenryuji Middle School locker room.

Nanami Haruna was sitting alone on the lounge chair, with a turban covering his face. The turban was soaked through and steaming constantly.

"Nanami, it's time to play."

Captain Hirata gave him a push and took the lead in changing his clothes and preparing to leave.

Nanami Haruna nodded and pulled the turban off his forehead, revealing a pair of sharp pupils.

"Although I had a premonition that such a day would come, but this day really came, I don't know if it's too early or too late. Ren, we are going to fight on the same court again, but this time, we are no longer a companion, but an opponent."

He threw away the turban in his hand, Nanami Haruna followed the team, left the lounge, and walked towards the court.

In the lounge on the other side, Sawamura's sharp eyes seemed to be able to emit light.

"Everyone, the last battle is coming!"

For Akagi, the final is no longer important, all their energy is on this semi-final. As long as they win this game, they can go to the Kanto Conference as representatives of Nagano Prefecture.

It's exciting to think about it!

"The preparations that need to be made have already been made. The next step is to do everything and obey the destiny."

Sawamura walked to the door of the locker room first, and behind him, Ren, Yamaguchi, Oda, and Wakana walked out one by one.

"Bang~"

Almost at the same time, the doors of the lounges on both sides were pushed open, and they passed through the bullpen and walked toward the field.

In the second game of the semi-finals, the match between the overlord Tenryuji Middle School and Akagi Middle School officially started.

Many of the supporters of Tenryuji Temple have bald heads, which makes them stand out.

Of course, this Tenryuji Middle School is not a Buddhist school. It is only because the school is relatively close to Tenryuji Temple, it is named Tenryuji Temple Middle School. In other words, Tenryuji Middle School has nothing to do with Tenryuji or monks.

But because everyone around Tenryuji Temple is martial arts, many people follow and learn ancient martial arts. Most of these people who learn ancient martial arts have shaved their hair to form Tenryuji Temple Middle School, and the phenomenon of bald heads is flooding.

It is precisely because they all learn martial arts and their physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary people, which makes Tenryuji Middle School stand at the top of Nagano.

The three kings of Nagano Prefecture all have their own strong reasons.

Tenryuji Middle School is because everyone in this area is martial, and most of the children have been trained since childhood, and their physical quality far exceeds that of children of the same age. Nagano Metropolitan Middle School is because it accepts students from Nagano Metropolitan Middle School all the year round. They have received the most professional training since childhood, and their strength is naturally strong. As for Okita Middle School, it is because they belong to the largest company in Nagano, the Matsumoto Group.

In short, it is not without reason that the three kings of Nagano Prefecture have been able to occupy the Nagano championship for 20 years. In other words, it is precisely because of these objective reasons that they can suppress other teams for two decades.

And all of this, after Akagi appeared, was destined to be rewritten. In fact, the first time Akagi participated in the competition, it broke the inherent order of Nagano Prefecture. They have already picked over one of the three kings, Nagano Metropolitan Middle School.

In the face of such an opponent, Tenryuji Temple is also quite cautious. They don't want to be the next person to be overthrown.

It is precisely because of this reason that many people came to cheer on Tenryuji Temple today, and half of their students came.

On the Matsumoto Field, on the stand on the third base side, thousands of bald heads were sitting densely. The sun was shining directly above their heads, reflecting bright light.

"Oh, I can't open my eyes."

Dozens of cheerleaders from Akagi Middle School came. As soon as they entered the gate of the stadium, they were swayed by their bright bald heads.

Look at other people's cheerleaders, uniform clothes, and uniform hairstyles, they look so dazzling.

Look at them again. There are dozens of people, and they are not wearing school uniforms. They are too like a motley crew.

There are not as many people as others, and their aura is not as good as others.

Even they themselves feel shabby.

"How about we go back?"

A girl said timidly.

"Don't talk nonsense, there are so many people here to cheer, if there is no one on our side, how much would Wakana be lost?"

Her companion immediately objected.

Yes, they have come, how can they not watch the performance of their own team?

Turning the corner, they entered their own stand, which was the stand on the third base side.

Originally entered the door, only to see the cheerleaders on the opposite side. Now that I see my own cheerleaders, Akagi's classmates, I'm really dumbfounded.

Although it was not as neat as the other party, there were more than a thousand people sitting in a dense crowd. The number of people doesn't have to be small at all.

In front of the crowd, there are huge drums.

The drummer was a big shirtless man with a banner on top of his head. This banner was held by two people, and the two people holding the banner were none other than Hayashi and Kobayashi.

On the banner, a large line of characters was written.

The Brotherhood of Bare Hearts!

The audience is quite large, and the momentum is not weak at all. The classmates of Akagi Middle School never thought that they would see such a scene.

In particular, the baseball team even has a dedicated fan team.

I'll go, it's too high-end and elegant.

The Akagi Brotherhood, at this point, supports Akagi.

The 'Brotherhood of bare-heart' is a fan team formed by Hayashi and Kobayashi together with like-minded friends. Mainly to support Sawamura, but also to appreciate the mutual tolerant friendship of Akagi Middle School.

In order to name the fan club, Hayashi and Kobayashi, the two patients with severe secondary diseases, were still very competitive.

Hayashi means 'Eijun! Hayashi Support Group'. Eijun naturally represented support for Sawamura, and Hayashi was his surname, meaning the branch he formed.

Kobayashi disagreed, the fan club was formed by two people, why is it called Hayashi Support Club?

"Then what do you say?"

"Two words, each of us will provide one. You will provide a forest, and I will provide a small one. I think we will call the Kobayashi support group."

"Don't play word games with me, why don't I send a big one, you send a forest, and continue to call the Hayashu support group."

If we can't discuss one piece, we can only think of other countermeasures.

In the end, after some disputes, the fan group was named 'Eijun! Brotherhood of Hearts'.

In today's game, the two big otakus are like rediscovering their goals in life. String friends, rent drums, make banners…

So, there was this scene that the little friends of Akagi Middle School saw.

"Dong dong ~ dong dong dong ~"

Seeing Sawamura and the others walking into the stadium, the drums were beaten, the banners were pulled up, and thousands of fans cheered in unison.

"Akagi! Come on!!"

"Akagi, come on!!"

The sound of the drums, accompanied by the earth-shattering cheers, directly smashed the cheerleaders of Tenryuji Temple to pieces.
