Chapter 124: Refreshing the Record

In the rest area of ​​Hoshiryu.

Hosho Ryuki's eyes were gloomy like dying.

'These two bastards are being played around, still don't understand what's going on?'

The batter obviously completely guessed their intention, and they are still tangled there!

"Get over it, focus on the second Out first!" Hosho Ryuki said loudly.

At the same time in the Press Box, Owada Akiko stared at the notebook in her hand and muttered.

"It's amazing! Amazing! Amazing!"

This remark made Fujio next to her stunned.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Look, Senpai!"

Akiko immediately raised the notebook in his hand to Fujio.

Fujio was shocked when he looked at the contents of the notebook.

This is really amazing!

Although Akiko is full of glasses, her notebook is not.

In her notebook, various records of Koshien were recorded.

There is such an item, which is about the first-year home run record of Koshien freshmen who participated in Koshien for the first time.

Two home runs!

Sawamura Eijun equaled this record before.

Now Sawamura Eijun, who has hit a home run again, has undoubtedly broken this record.

"This is really big news!" Fujio Mine muttered.

In fact, he should have thought long ago that a guy like Sawamura Eijun would break the record sooner or later.

When he played in middle school, he was known as a record breaker.

Records for batting rate, home run records, Strikeout records for a single game, records for points lost, records for zero points conceded, records for total strikeouts...

Almost all the records in the Softball League National Championships were created by the same person.

That's Sawamura!

The title of the Demon King is not something that anyone can get casually.

In the middle school softball league at that time, Sawamura Eijun definitely reached this height.

The Akagi Junior High School baseball team, without the leadership of Sawamura Eijun, would not have achieved all of those achievements.

Of course, everything goes together. If there is no Akagi Middle School baseball team, Sawamura Eijun would have a lot of difficulties in trying to obtain the title of the Demon King.

If the Akagi Middle School baseball team at that time did not have nothing, but a top giant in the region, no matter how well Sawamura Eijun performed, everyone seemed to be reasonable.

It is precisely because the previous Akagi Middle School baseball team was bad, terrible, and useless that Sawamura's achievements will appear even more brilliant.

Record Breaker!

If the current Seidou High School is still a little-known team, and Sawamura has set a new record, will definitely be something worth writing about.

As for now, even among the highly vigilant reporters, many of them do not realize this.

Of course, there are vigilant ones.

For example, Akiko and Fujio next to her, Also, the live commentator of the game.

"Let me tell you the good news. Just now, Sawamura Eijun broke the home run record after the first-year freshman joined Koshien. The original record was two, and Sawamura Eijun successfully broke the record to three. In the Koshien competition, the current holder of the record for the most home runs for a freshman is Sawamura Eijun-kun!"

Tens of millions of viewers across the country got the news at the same time through the online media TV broadcast.

"Amazing!"

"Damn, this is a record-breaking!"

Although they did feel surprise and excitement when they just watched it, after hearing the commentator, the audience knew how amazing this home run was.

Although the current audience is large before, they have already heard the name of Sawamura Eijun, They were still shocked to hear that Sawamura had broken the home run record for a freshman.

Since it is called a record, it must be very remarkable, and Sawamura has set a new record, so he is naturally even more remarkable.

Even if you don't know much about baseball, when you see Sawamura's performance right now, you will know it subconsciously.

This guy is born to play baseball!

Viewers who are familiar with Sawamura Eijun will not make a fuss.

For the Maou, it is not normal to refresh two records casually.

Hearing the news announced by the commentary, the eyes of others looking at Sawamura Eijun became even deeper.

Even the Players from Seidou High School around Sawamura had a strange feeling when they looked at Sawamura.

While they were aware of Sawamura Eijun's remarkable talent, his exceptional achievements in baseball still came as a surprise. His jovial laugh and friendly nature may have initially disguised his prowess on the baseball field.

For Koshien, any record is a monument.

And how difficult is it to break such a monument and re-establish another?

No one knows the difficulty and the greatness of it better than the active players in these high schools.

And they watched helplessly, witnessing the birth of a monument.

Even if he had a good relationship with Sawamura Eijun before, there would still be a sense of distance right now. That feeling is like a young man from the same neighborhood, seeing each other ten years later, and suddenly knowing that the guy is already a billionaire.

Even if all the relationships remain the same, the distance in the heart is also different.

This phenomenon is factual and should neither be intentionally ignored nor unjustly criticized.

The right thing to do is to accept it all and let time tell.

After Sawamura Eijun scored a home run and curved his name in Koshien, Seidou High School entered full assault mode.

With one Out and no one on base, it was the turn of the fourth batter.

Now Nanami Haruka is in a twilight time. He has just been entangled by Kominato Ryosuke for 15 balls and then lost a home run by Sawamura Eijun.

Even a pitcher with Nanami's strong mentality, couldn't help but wonder if there was a problem with his own pitching.

'No, I did not!'

From childhood to adulthood, Nanami Haruka has never made a major mistake in his pitching. It is impossible for him to make repeated mistakes right now, especially when he is not aware of them.

Since it wasn't his fault, what was the problem?

The answer is very simple, the batters at Seidou High School are simply superior.

This reality clearly told Nanami that there was still a very obvious gap between him and Sawamura.

"Get the next Out first!"

When Nanami Haruka came back to his senses, he heard the teammates and Coach standing there shouting in the rest area.

Just now, his mind was disturbed by Eijun's home run.

But now it has finally recovered.

'The Coach is right, this is not the time to be immersed in previous pitches.'

'Now his most important task is to get the number of Outs steadily. No matter who the opponent is, I must get the number of Outs first.'

With a decision in mind, Nanami Haruka, who was throwing the ball, started throwing the ball even more vigorously.

Even if the opponent is the fourth batter Yuuki Tetsuya is not soft-hearted.

On the strike zone, Yuuki was very keen to discover the strangeness of Nanami Haruka.

However, he ignored it and waited until the ball entered his hand before swinging the bat decisively.

BUZZ!!

In an instant, like a storm, the air in the entire strike zone was evacuated by Tetsuya's swing.

Pang!

After the small white ball was hit, it flew into the gap of the outfield guard like a flashing meteor.

PAK!!

The baseball hits the ground, Tetsuya throws the bat and runs forward.

After Sawamura hit a home run, the captain also scored a clean hit.

Seidou High School's attack has begun
