Chapter 143: Demon King Mode!

The first time Kosuke Ishizue heard the name Sawamura Eijun dates back to when he was in middle school.

At that time, he was in the third grade of middle school and was eliminated early in the summer competition.

For Kosuke, baseball has always been just a club activity, and it has no special meaning.

Even if he lost to the opponent, he didn't feel too sad, he has never experienced the feeling of crying after losing, perhaps because he doesn't care much.

Until he accidentally saw the broadcast about Akagi Middle School.

At that time, the baseball team of Akagi Middle School was already in the second grade of Sawamura.

Kosuke could see at a glance that this team was a bad team.

Seeing their clumsy play, for Kosuke, was like watching an entertainment show.

To be honest, Akagi Middle School is really not strong, especially in the Kanto Tournament of the second grade, it was even more clear.

Compared with their opponents, if they play ten games, they will lose at least nine games.

However, they won!

Kosuke will never forget the scene he saw on TV at that time, and the audience in the entire stand was all boiling. All cheer for the ordinary team.

'It must be amazing to win and people will cheer for you like this, right?' Kosuke thought.

'Me too.'

'I want to have that too!'

The young man felt the desire and ambition awaken in him, it must be nonsense to say that he is not envious.

He is envious and very envious. It's just that as far as Kosuke Ishizue is concerned, he clearly knows that he and Sawamura Eijun are definitely not the same.

The difference is too big…

Until he received an invitation from Hirotaka High School.

"Are you sure the person you want to invite is me?"

At that time, Kosuke was dumbfounded when he saw Hirotaka' Superintendent.

He knows the team he is in is not a very good team, and the team's results are also average. Even on their team, he wasn't that great too.

"Yes, I am very optimistic about you, Kosuke Ishizue-kun."

Superintendent Haku Yutaka was still very easygoing at that time.

It's just that after entering Koshien, he became timid.

Thinking about it, Kosuke couldn't help but laugh.

Since joining Hirotaka High School, he has always fantasized about this day.

'I imagined the day when I could face off against Sawamura Eijun.'

'Now, this day has finally come!'

'I will take it all…you fame, your fans, your achievement!'

'Give them all to me!'

After Kosuke stepped into the strike zone, his posture was wide open, his eyes were focused, and his movements seemed eager to fight.

'The opponent is very confident.'

This did not escape Miyuki Kazuya's eyes. With his level of intelligence, it was not difficult to guess the thoughts of the Hirotaka High School players.

'If you hit it, you will make a lot of profit, and if you can't hit it, you will have nothing to lose. Who doesn't like gambling like this?'

'But, are you not underestimating our Sawamura here quite a bit?'

'If he was to be so easily defeated, the head of the Maou would have been harvested long ago! Up until now, no one has been able to score points off Sawamura's pitching.'

'Come on, show our opponent what it means to be the Demon King.' Miyuki gave Sawamura a sign.

On the pitcher's mound, Sawamura nodded indiscernibly, then opened his stance and threw the baseball in his hand.

Whoosh!

A small white ball suddenly appeared.

On the strike zone, Kosuke's expression suddenly became complex.

'Although I have collected information about Sawamura Eijun's pitching on the Internet before, it mainly talks about Sawamura's Pitching Form.'

It is said that when you look at the strike zone, you can't see the spot where Sawamura threw the ball. When you see the ball, the ball will be already at hand!

Initially, Kosuke found the remarks of the other person to be utterly absurd. However, upon seeing it himself from the strike zone, he came to the startling revelation that the other person's claims were not overstated in the slightest.

'It is actually real!'

In the strike zone, it was impossible to see Sawamura's pitching hand at all.

SNAP!

While Kosuke was stunned, the small white ball had slipped into the Mitt that Miyuki had opened.

"STRIKE!"

Miyuki is also very satisfied with this ball.

'The speed, the power, the course are all perfect!'

'Judging from the feeling of pitching, Sawamura's state, although not at its peak, should still be good.'

'Continue!'

After passing the ball back to Sawamura, Miyuki gave him a sign to continue.

Engrossed in thought, Kosuke didn't realize the white ball had flown past him again in the batting box.

'Too sudden!'

Kosuke couldn't react at all.

SNAP!

"STRIKE!"

When he came back to his senses, he was already two Strikes behind.

'So fast!'

'So sudden!!'

He glanced at Sawamura on the pitcher's mound in shock, and a bone-chilling chill hit Kosuke's body.

It never occurred to him that Sawamura's pitch was much sharper than he imagined.

Now that he is behind by two Strikes, it is too late for him to follow the previously arranged bunt and steal plan.

'Now it's just a tough fight.'

Gritting his teeth, glared and stared at Sawamura.

Whoosh!

Without making him wait any longer, the white ball flew over.

'The fast pace is scary!'

Fortunately, right now, Kosuke was already mentally prepared and could barely swing the bat to deal with it.

Buzz!

As the bat swung out, Kosuke Ishizue's eyes were no longer confused.

Perhaps he also knows that this ball is probably difficult for him to hit well.

But he still has to hit the ball.

Irrelevant to the effect, just to show my attitude.

The bat swung toward the ball and was about to touch the white ball.

This little ball fell magically!

The bat whizzed past the white ball without touching a single seam.

SNAP!

"STRIKE BATTER OUT!!!"

'It sank!'

Kosuke's face suddenly became extremely ugly. There was very bad information that kept popping up in his mind in his mind.

 It was something he saw during the dime he was interested in Sawamura's achievements.

When Sawamura Eijun was on the Akagi Middle School baseball team, the more critical the game was, the more stable he played.

He has consistently shattered records and achieved one remarkable feat after another in those games.

In fact, a lot of the record he broke in middle school was in critical games.

Some fans couldn't help but give a name to this phenomenon.

Demon King Mode!

Sawamura in front of him suddenly gave him this bad feeling.

The Demon King mode is activated, and they are Hirotaka, and they are likely to become victims.

"Second batter, first baseman, Kuromaru-kun."

At this point, it's the batter's turn to the first baseman.

Just as Kuromaru walked towards the strike zone, Kosuke grabbed him.

"How was it?"

"Even if it's a bunt, don't get a Strikeout no matter what," Kosuke said.

Kuromaru Asahi wondered why Kosuke, who has always been calm, was trembling in his voice today.

…

T/N: Sawamura has demonstrated an exceptional ability to focus more intensely during critical moments. This is the origin of this 'Phenomena'.

Anyway, Thank you all for reading, and have a nice day!
