Chapter 121: Finals Start

"Everything is for offense. Adjust the stable Sawamura forward. It is also to match the offensive tactics of Seidou High School. Harada, Narumiya, don't be careless!"

Hearing his Coach, Harada nodded.

Of course, he won't be careless.

Narumiya Mei yawned lazily.

"Looks like you didn't sleep well yesterday. You've been yawning since you got up early in the morning."

Harada glanced at Narumiya worriedly.

"Don't worry! You don't have to look so worried!"

"I was thinking about how to solve them, but the more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and I couldn't sleep at all."

Saying that, Narumiya's gaze turned to the rest area of ​​Seidou High School.

In today's game, in addition to Sawamura being the starting pitcher, there is an adjustment in the batting order.

Another thing to watch out for is Miyuki Kazuya!

In this game, Miyuki was also the starting catcher of Seidou High School.

'Kazuya, this is what you wanted, right?'

Two years ago.

Miyuki, who has not graduated from high school, looks very immature.

"Wow, here comes a group of big names!"

Miyuki widened his eyes and looked at the people sitting in front of him.

Carlos of the Jounan junior Baseball Team.

Shirakawa of Marugame junior Baseball Team.

Yamaoka and Yabe of the Takahira junior Baseball Team.

And Narumiya Mei.

"Mei, did you bring them all?"

"Yes, Kazuya, as long as you are willing to join, my ideal team will be completed." Narumiya smiled very proudly.

Shirakawa said, "I thought we could find another catcher, but Narumiya said he wanted to find you."

"Kazuya, Inashiro also invited you too, right? Let's form the strongest team together. With these members, it is no longer a dream to be the National Champion?" Narumiya offered an invitation.

"Inashiro also has a Kunitomo head Coach who is head and shoulder above his grade. The equipment there is also the most abundant in the school in the region, so the environment should be impeccable."

Carlos followed with a piece of persuasion.

"The most important thing is that you don't have to be the enemy of Narumiya Mei." Shirakawa gave his pieces.

"Of course you will also accept this invitation, Miyuki Kazuya?"

"Sorry, I can't accept your invitation, because Seidou invited me a long time ago?"

'Eh?'

The several people looked at Miyuki in disbelief.

"Seidou, since the previous head coach resigned, he has only entered Koshien once. Compared with the performance of Head Coach Kunitomo, I think Head Coach Kataoka is too young!"

"The problem is not here, after all, this is a team with so many talented players."

"Rather than being your lackey, I'd rather play against you."

***

"I didn't expect it to come true, bastard."

The corners of Narumiya Mei's mouth turned up unconsciously.

'Kazuya!'

'Sawamura!'

'It's time for us to make it true.'

National Competition, West Tokyo Regional Final.

The game of Seidou High School Against Inajitsu High School is about to start.

"let's go!"

"Ooooooooooooo!!!"

"Ooooooooooooo!!!"

Along with the roar, the players from both sides rushed together and gathered in the center of the field.

"PLEASED TO PLAY WITH YOU!"

"PLEASED TO PLAY WITH YOU!!"

In the first half of the inning, Inajitsu was the first to go on the field. The players of Inashiro, gathered on the pitcher mound to cheer on the pitchers.

Inashiro's starting pitcher, of course, is their Ace Narumiya Mei. In this competition, until now, Narumiya Mei has not lost any runs, and his momentum is terrifying.

The captain of the team, the main catcher, and the fourth batter Harada Masatoshi will make the sign to Narumiya.

"Out of the nine starting players, four are from the second grade. This can be regarded as the biggest feature of Inashiro!"

On the other side, is the rest area of ​​Seidou High School.

All the starters crouched down and looked at Kataoka, waiting for his orders.

"Before you are chased by the count unless you encounter a very sweet ball, you must not swing easily. Don't be afraid of being Struck Out, decide which ball you want to target, and attack decisively. Today's temperature is very high, as long as Narumiya Mei Throw a few more Pitches, and there's bound to be some meatballs that fly over."

Hearing Kataoka's order, all the Players of Seidou nodded.

Tokyo Prince Narumiya!

Wanting to hit off this guy is definitely not easy. Coach Kataoka, right now, preparations for a prolonged war are already in place.

As long as Narumiya is attacked, Inashiro's backup pitcher is not bad, but he can't stop Seidou's powerful offensive.

In the Press Box.

With his huge connection, Fujio won a position in the Press Box.

There were too many spectators in this game. It's hard to see the full game if they're crowded into the audience.

"Fujio-senpai, how should Seidou defeat Narumiya-kun, who hasn't lost any points so far, should be the key to this game, right?" Owada Akiko asked.

"Yes!"

"The conditions are the same for both parties. Seidou's Sawamura-kun has not lost any points so far. How will Seidou defeat Narumiya-kun? How will Inashiro defeat Sawamura-kun? In this game, the one who will lose points first will fall into a huge passive."

Fujio replied with certainty.

This game, despite the collision of giants, will definitely turn into a Pitching Duel.

The performance of the two pitchers, Tokyo Prince Narumiya Mei and the Demon King Sawamura Eijun, will directly affect the progress of the game.

In the battle of giants, a single player will determine the outcome of the game.

This is not usually the case, but it definitely exists.

Narumiya Mei, and Sawamura Eijun, the strength of these two people is undoubtedly the top level in the nation!

"First batter, shortstop, Kuramochi-kun."

Kuramochi, as always, is batting first and the first to walk into the strike zone.

"Kuramochi, be aggressive!"

"Come on, Kuramochi-senpai!"

"Be calm and watch the ball carefully!"

"You must get on base!"

In the rest area, the players of Seidou High School roared and cheered Kuramochi.

On the pitcher's mound, Narumiya raised his head high and looked at Seidou's rest area with a smirk.

"Who will allow him to get on base? Don't be naive!"

On the strike zone, Kuramochi looked at Narumiya coldly, waiting for the ball.

In the position of the catcher, Harada looked at Kuramochi on the strike zone, doing regular analysis in his mind.

'Kuramochi is a switch hitter, which means that he can swing whether he is standing on the left or right Box. Mei is a Southpaw. Compared with standing on the left Box, it is easier to see the path of the ball clearly in the right Box.'

'Now Kuramochi was not on the right Box where he could see the ball more clearly, but on the left Box, which was closer to first base.'

'Does he want to steal bases?'

Narumiya and Harada came to the same conclusion.

'Your intention to steal the base is too obvious!'

Whoosh!

The sharp pitch, like a precise missile, flew straight to the bottom of the outer corner.

On the strike zone, Kuramochi had a complicated expression.

It's a really uncomfortable Pitch, it's tricky, it can be a Strike and it can be a Ball. For a while, he really didn't know if he was going to swing.

'Do not swing easily unless it's a really sweet ball.'

'Don't be afraid of Strikeouts!'

With the reassurance given by Kataoka, of course, Kuramochi will not swing at this ball.

'It is better to give up such a tricky ball.'

SNAP!

The baseball went straight into Harada's Mitt.

"BALL!"

This ball deviates from the strike zone.

In the position of the catcher, Harada's face was very complicated.

Mei's pitch, although it is a Ball, but the position is very vague. If Kuramochi makes up his mind and aims for bunts and steals. Then there is no reason to let this ball go.

'Do they have another plan?'
