CHAPTER 12

Everyone watch as Jiro started his wind up. They're all pretty startled when they felt the aura the boy exudes at the moment.

Jiro is obviously oblivious of his surroundings as all he can see at the moment is the mitt Infront of him.

Knee raise, both arms up, stomping his right root firmly, and rotating whipping his left arm out focusing all of his strength in his fingertips before releasing the ball.

Everyone watch Jiro's pitching form and the first thing that came to their mind is the freshman is a southpaw on which followed is a scene they didn't expect coming.

*BOOOMMMMMMM

Everyone is dead silent at the moment, even those practicing fieldings at the field turned their head to look at the direction of pitching area.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!?" Isashiki muttered at the sidelines.

"UGAHH?" Masuko said, disbelief in his eyes.

"Ohoo interesting"A pink haired boy said beside Isashiki named ryunosuke.

"Monster, he's a monster"

"Furuya earlier is already a monster but this guy looks faster than him!"

"What''s the difference? Both of them is a monster on their own"

Furuya could be seen stunned at the sidelines looking at the direction of the cathers glove, 'that ball looks faster than mine' he thought and he immediately release his aura.

In the catchers view, Ono. He just saw the freshman pitcher doing his wind up and all he sees after that is a white light then he felt the ball pushing against his mitt afterwards he didn't have time to flinch since everything happened way too fast. He felt the ball in his mitt drilling into him as if it's alive and wanted to get out didn't want to be tamed. He exerted a lot of effort just trying not to dropped the ball.

If the ball didn't came directly to his mitt he's 100% sure that he can't catch it. 'This guy is the real deal' he thought.

In the sidelines Miyuki eyes is so wide still trying to process what did he just witness. 'First it's the Furuya guy, then just right after him we have this guy too? The most important thing is he drilled that directly at Ono's mitt' he thought to himself slowly a creepy smile etching into his face.

"Hehehe we got a bunch of monsters this year hah? We also got that loudmouth pitcher sawamura. This is fun" he said softly as his mind already working wonders on how he can utilize the three pitchers.

"Senpai the ball" Jiro said obviously not paying attention to his surroundings at the moment. All he has in mind is to continue pitching. 'This is so fun, pitching is really fun' he thought awaiting the for the ball.

Just that simple sentence from Jiro sent shivers down their spine as they saw the look on the boy brown and blue eyes.

"Ahh" Ono said woken up from his daze and throw the pitch back to his kohai on the mound.

"Miyuki switch with Ono" Ono heard the coach kataoka said on which he breathe a sigh of relief as he doesn't have the confidence yet to catch another ball from Jiro. Just that one ball already stings his hand.

"Yes!" Miyuki said loudly obviously excited to catch for his monstrous kohai. He immediately sit on the catcher position where Ono left.

"Let's see what you've got, throw it here don't hold back!" Miyuki shouted at Jiro with a smile on his face. Jiro just nods at him excited himself since Miyuki is one of the people that caught his eyes when he did his research at seido.

"Prepare the radar device" Kataoka instructed coach oota beside him. 'Furuya speed is around 150km/h - 151km/h earlier I wonder about this boy' he thought to himself while looking at Jiro.

They watched as Jiro once again begin his wind up then

*BOOOMMMMMMM

A loud sound once again could be heard. It's much louder than before because of Miyuki's higher catching skills than Ono.

Miyuki is flabbergasted at that ball, he didn't have to move his hand at all and the ball just came roaring at his way drilling itself in his mitt. 'He's faster than the guy earlier' he thought.

Once again the surroundings got noisy because of Jiro.

"What's the recorded speed?" Kataoka ask Mr. Oota to report the recorded speed of Jiro's pitch just now. Mr. Oota just look at the radar device stunned at what he saw it shook him a couple of seconds to process everything and replied to kataoka question

"157km/h" he said.

"What!?"

"Damn he's that fast?"

"I thought he's way faster than the guy earlier but didn't expect this large of a gap"

Everyone is shocked at Mr. Oota announcement of Jiro's pitch velocity. Even kataoka was stunned for a moment hearing the result. 'A southpaw pitcher that could throw 157km/h' he thought in his mind trying to process everything.

"Damn that pretty boy didn't tell me anything about this!"

"You know him Isashiki?"

"Yes he's my new roommate, I'm so going to interrogate this guy later!"

Was the conversation between Isashiki and ryunosuke in the side while masuko just listened to them.

Miyuki throws the ball back to Jiro staying

"Nice ball!", Jiro just nods at him then once again begun his wind up.

*BOOOMMMMM

*BOOOOMMMMM

*BOOMMMMMMM

A loud sound could be heard repeatedly, everyone already stopped on their tracks to watch the spectacle happening at the pitching area including the Fielders nearby.

When Miyuki throws the ball back at Jiro again he saw the boy didn't do his wind up once more which confuses him 'Is he out of strength? But he looks just still fine' he thought to himself.

"Miyuki senpai why are you only asking for down the middle pitch?" Asked by the monstrous pitcher on the mound.

"Ahh, what do you mean?" Miyuki replied in daze "Don't tell me you-" he haven't finished what he's about to said as what came out of Jiro's mouth sent shivers down his cathers soul.

"You can put your mitt anywhere senpai, I could perfectly control my pitch so I'll throw it wherever your mitt is" Jiro said.

"What!?"

"What did the freshman say!?"

"You heard him yourself"

Everyone's pretty shaken up at what Jiro's said. His speed is already on a league of his own so they didn't expect expect him to have a good control since the guy is a freshman. What everyone didn't notice is that Jiro throws the ball exactly down the middle where Miyuki's glove is waiting a couple of times.

"Hahaha okay!" Miyuki said laughing his eyes shining looking at his pitcher on the mound.

*BOOMMMMMMMM

*BOOOMMMMMMM

*BOOOOOMMMMM

*BOOOMMMMMMM

No matter where Miyuki position his mitt is, the ball just came roaring towards it. He didn't have to move his mitt at all.

He just looks at the pitchers mound where his pitcher just looks at him with his brown and blue eyes shining.

"HAHAHAHA" Miyuki laugh loudly he can't control himself and look at his pitcher again before saying.

"You're the best!"
