Chapter 66: Ace Debut!

No Out, runner at first base!

And now, it was Isashiki's turn to bat.

"Finally it's my turn!"

For Mishima, Isashiki has long held back his anger.

'The boy is so haughty!'

'Does he really think that no one can hit him in Seidou's lineup?'

After Isashiki got on the strike zone, he didn't even greet the referee or shout at the pitcher, he just stood there normally, while glaring a bit. While completely clueless, Mishima threw the first ball, and he swung the bat directly!

"Stinky boy, don't underestimate Seidou!"

Ping!

After the small white ball was hit, it flew far away and finally landed in the gap of the fielders.

No Out, runners at first and third base!

"Fourth Batter, first baseman, Yuuki-kun."

When the first and third bases are occupied, it is the Captain's turn to bat.

You can imagine how excited the supporters of Seidou High School are.

They almost frantically cheered Yuuki.

"Yuuki!"

"Yuuki!!"

"Smash it, Tetsu!"

"Show these brats the strength of Seidou High School!"

On the strike zone, It wasn't because of the cheers that came from the surroundings have made Tetsuya look any different.

He was as calm as before, like still a pool of water.

However, it is precisely this calmness that gives people a chilling feeling.

Watanabe subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

His heart was about to jump Out!

After four Ball was, hit by a hit. After being hit by a batter, it was Seidou High School's strongest fourth batter's turn…

Could it be that Mishima has finally run out of luck?

Watanabe looked at the rest area of ​​Yakushi High School for help.

There, Superintendent Todoroki Raizou was still dozing off.

'It looks like there is no other way~'

'Then just bite the bullet!'

The first ball: A Ball to the inner corner!

Although he keeps encouraging himself in his heart, not wanting to escape, however, when it came time to actual Game calling, Watanabe subconsciously avoided the strike zone.

In the face of Yuuki, he hopes to use some more tricky ball paths!

On the mound, Mishima is still immersed in his perfect state.

Whoosh!

The small white ball was hurled into the strike zone with great momentum.

What?

The catcher, Watanabe's eyes widened in surprise, and his eyeballs almost flew out!

At this moment, the fearless Mishima came back.

He didn't follow his instructions to throw the ball outside the strike zone at all, but instead threw the ball into the strike zone.

Ping!

A strike that enters the strike zone, Yuuki naturally won't let it go.

He Smashed the ball straight away and swept it out.

The small white ball penetrated the defense of Yakushi.

Kominato Ryosuke, who was at third base, took the opportunity to return to home plate and helped Seidou score the tenth Run.

The total score becomes 10:3!

Tetsuya and Isashiki took this hit to advance a base each.

No Out, runners at first and second base!

Seidou High School's lineup, after the silence of the third game, finally connected again and scored points.

"Seidou!"

"Seidou!!!"

"Yuuki!"

"Yuuki!!"

In the stands, the Players who supported Seidou High School shouted the names of Seidou and Yuuki like crazy.

This point is so important!

Among them, Fujio, a senior reporter for Baseball Kingdom Magazine, gave the most objective conclusion.

"He didn't choose a long hit but chose a style of play that can simply get hits. Even with a big lead, the batters at Seidou High School still performed very calmly."

Not being carried away by the victory in front of him.

This is very valuable for a team with a King's performance.

If the game continues like this, Yakushi will be slowly drowned in the super strong line of Seidou High School.

On the pitcher's mound, Mishima's face turned an unnatural blush.

"Dream! It was a dream just now!!!"

In the dugout of ​​Yakushi High School, Todoroki Raizou, who had been sleepy before, suddenly stood up.

"It can't go on like this! If the score continues to expand, we'll probably have no chance at all!"

Saying that he signaled to the referee and asked to change the pitcher.

"Yakushi High School, the players have changed. Pitcher Sanada-kun came to the field, former pitcher Mishima-kun replaced the first baseman, and the former first baseman moved to left field. Left fielder returns to the dugout!"

The replacements of Yakushi High School showed that they are a small team.

There is no way, they have very few players available on their team to have to make such an adjustment.

"Coach, I'm okay! There's no need to send Sanada-senpai right now. I still have skills that I haven't shown yet."

Of course, Mishima-kun, who feels very good about himself, is not happy with the decision to make a substitution.

Todoroki Raizou went back to the rest area, rolled his eyes, and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Mishima, aren't you tired yet? When I'm exhausted, I want you, the real Ace, to finish the game."

Sanada, who walked up to the pitcher's mound, smiled comfortingly.

Mishima, who looked reluctant, became embarrassed.

As far as his strength on the pitcher's mound is concerned, he may not be at the same level as Sanada-senpai right now.

Of course, it's only now. After a while, the strength of his great genius Mishima will grow rapidly, so surpassing Sanada-senpai is just around the corner!

"All right!"

Mishima reluctantly withdrew from the mound.

"In the next game, I have to give you all the trouble."

After persuading Mishima, Sanada smiled and said to the surrounding Yakushi.

"We are counting on you Sanada!"

"Just like this, let's stop Seidou here!"

"Let's do this!"

The fielders also responded positively to Sanada.

Right now, the momentum of Yakushi High School was suddenly different from before.

Even the Monster-like Raichi was inspired.

"Sanada-senpai, you can let them hit here, I will definitely stop it!"

Although he was just saying it, Raichi's trust and respect for Sanada is far more than the previous Mino and the previous Mishima.

"Nah, not you, it's always scary when the ball goes to your place."

Sanada did not appreciate the kindness of Raichi.

The players from the surrounding Yakushi High School also let out good-natured laughter.

At this moment, their momentum started changing.

In the rest area of ​​Seidou High School.

After Sanada was on the mound, the atmosphere and momentum of Yakushi High School changed.

"This person is clearly the real Ace pitcher of Yakushi High School!" Chris said.

You know, not because the pitching is good, and he can become the Ace of this team.

An Ace pitcher who can really lead his team, the chemistry he brings to the team is in all aspects.

With him, the team seems to have the backbone!

Just like the opponents that Seidou High School encountered in the previous Kanto Tournament, their Ace is not necessarily the most powerful pitcher in the team.

Also before, when Sawamura joined the Seidou High School baseball team, he was already the strongest pitcher in Seidou, but he really became an Ace after he was recognized by all the players at the Kanto Tournament.

It's the same situation now, not just because of Sanada's pitching.

Just by looking at him, you can tell the atmosphere of Yakushi High School after playing.

He is the real Ace pitcher of Yakushi High School.

"There is no doubt about this. Now we have to see how good this Ace pitcher is." Coach Ochiai said pinching his goatee.

The game continues.

No Out, runners at first and second base.

And the Seidou batter who is standing on the strike zone now is.

Sawamura Eijun!

Sawamura Eijun vs Sanada Shunpei!

There was a bit of an Ace Vs Ace taste at the start.

"This matchup is not fair. For us, whether we can continue to score points in this inning does not affect the overall situation very much. However, for you, once you lose points, it will be an irreversible result. I don't know how you would deal with it, Sanada-san."

In the strike zone, Sawamura was relaxed.

Of course, Sanada is not in the same mood now.

As Sawamura said, now Yakushi is standing on the edge of the cliff.

If the score continues to be widened, then Yakushi will really be helpless.

No Out, runners at first and second base.

In this situation, Seidou High School has many ways to score.

The first is to constantly bunt and walk the runners who are currently on second base back to home plate.

The second is, the normal duel!

Sawamura, Miyuki!

These two batters were both extremely ferocious when someone was on the base.

The probability that Seidou High School will let them swing normally is also very high…
