Chapter 100: No Beard Left Behind

"Sawamura!"

"Dong Dong Dong!!!"

"Sawamura!"

"Dong Dong Dong!!!"

In the stands, nearly 3,000 members of the Demon King's Guard held empty drink bottles. Every time they called Sawamura, the bottles collided with each other three times.

Koshien is not the base camp of the Demon King's Guard, and it is not easy to gather too many people here. Miyamoto thought about it for a long time, and this was the only way for them to get their cheering loud enough.

Not to mention, the effect is really good.

Although there are people on the scene, irregular use this method to refuel. But compared with the magnitude of 3,000 people, the opponent immediately became unheard.

Amid the cheers, Sawamura went to first base smoothly.

Two Outs, runner at first base.

Although they haven't scored yet, Seidou High School has already begun to show its advantages.

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

Right now, it was the turn of Seidou's Captain, Yuuki Tetsuya. As soon as he came on stage, Seidou's aura changed.

From the moment Yuuki stood on the strike zone, the atmosphere at the field became extremely cold and solemn.

On the mound, Nanami Haruka's breathing became heavy.

In the stands, countless fans who supported Seidou High School began to rhythmically shout the names of Seidou and Yuuki.

In front of the TV, there are countless fans with excited eyes…

"This is Koshien!"

In the fight against Sawamura, Sawamura guessed the Straight ball.

This was no surprise to Nanami and Okuchi.

As soon as the game started, Sawamura was able to recognize all their habits, and it was easy for him to guess their plans.

Hosho and Nanami were very helpless about this, but there was nothing they could do.

All they can do is suppress Sawamura's threat to a minimum.

It was also bad luck for them to be hit. Better than having Sawamura hit the Breaking ball…

But can they do the same with Yuuki?

This pressure cannot be faked.

Even with Yuuki just standing on the strike zone, they are under a lot of pressure.

'Too strong!'

'It's a bit of a cheat to be strong!'

Nanami believes in his own intuition, not to mention, that he has seen the video of Yuuki's game before.

This guy is very dangerous, very dangerous, much more dangerous than Sawamura!

"Haha~"

He was frightened with cold sweat on his face, but in his heart, Nanami couldn't help laughing lightly.

'It is great to be able to continue playing baseball in high school!'

How could he continue to face off against Sawamura if he wasn't playing baseball in high school? If he hadn't continued to play baseball, how could he have seen such a monster like Yuuki?

'Let's go all out!'

The fighting spirit in Nanami Haruka's eyes could not be concealed no matter what.

Okuchi nodded helplessly.

Nanami was completely immersed in the duel he had with Yuuki. Even if he had any suggestions right now, with Nanami's stubborn nature, he would never listen.

'Rather than doing that, it's better to do what he wants.'

'Okay, bring it on!'

'Throw your best Pitch.'

As soon as Okuchi gave a sign, Nanami nodded.

Then he seemed to use all his strength to throw an extremely sharp ball.

Whoosh!

The white balls flew to the zone like laser light.

In the position of the catcher, Hosho Okuchi's eyes flashed with a trace of seriousness.

'This was originally a special gift for that guy Sawamura, but I didn't expect it to come out so quickly.'

'However, as long as Nanami can throw this ball, no one can hit it.'

WhooshPANG!

As if to punch him in the face, the small white ball was hit and flew forward.

Hosho Okuchi's face was as pale as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

'Nanami's fast Forkball was hit!'

'How can that be?'

No matter what he thinks, the ball was indeed hit and flew forward.

On the strike zone.

The expression on the Captain's face did not change, but his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

'Just after the ball entered the zone, it sank!'

'The magnitude of the sinking is not large, but it does sink! And the power of the ball was not weakened by the sinking of the ball.'

'It's a fast Forkball with a high degree of completion!'

Throwing away the bat in his hand, Yuuki runs to first base.

Because Tetsuya hit the ball low, it formed a grounder ball, which landed three meters from the pitcher's side.

"Stop it!"

As soon as he saw the ball being hit, Nanami Haruka wanted to stop the ball.

But he's so slow, so slow

It felt as if someone had cast a spell on him, and he couldn't move at all.

'Hurry up! Hurry up!!!'

Nanami was in a hurry and hurriedly urged himself. But his body couldn't move, he could only watch the small ball flying out of his vision.

'Damn!'

Nanami Haruka only had time to turn his head, and then he saw a very incredible scene.

Not only he, but even Oda Honjo and Keiba Sato seemed to be enchanted by someone, and their movements were as slow as a turtle crawling.

Right now, Nanami Haruka finally realized.

It's not that his movements are slow, it's just his dynamic vision that gives this strange sense of dissonance.

The ball was hit too fast!

The baseball passed through the reach of Nanami Haruka, Keiba Sato, and Oda Honjo in a row, and flew to the outfield.

"Good job!"

With such a swing, Sawamura couldn't help but give Captain Yuuki a thumbs up.

He left first base and ran to second base long before he even made a swing. By the time the outfielder from Hoshiryu High School picked up the ball and passed it back, Sawamura had already stopped at third base comfortably.

Yuuki stayed on first base.

Two Outs, runners on first and third base.

After two consecutive Outs, Seidou High School's lineup suddenly exploded, scoring consecutive hits.

Unfortunately, still no points.

Right now, it was the turn of the fifth batter of Seidou High School, the unwavering, Isashiki Jun.

From the stands, there were bursts of sighs.

Before, they had watched too many Seidou games, and they were too familiar with the next process.

In the previous game, Seidou's attack was over here too.

The players of Hoshiryu High School also breathed a sigh of relief.

So dangerous!

That was so dangerous!!

If the outfielder didn't return the ball in time, Sawamura might have gone straight to home plate.

Now, they only need to face off against Seidou's fifth batter.

So far, Seidou High School's fifth batter hit rate has not reached 30%. It's barely above 20%! (Statistics for Koshien only.)

It should be relatively easy to deal with him.

"Right now, you must be careful with pitching. The fifth batter of Seidou will swing even if it is a wide Ball. First, trick him for two Strikes, and finally use the Curve to solve the inning!"

Without much hesitation, Hosho Okuchi gave Nanami a sign.

On the pitcher's mound, Nanami Haruka nodded.

Whoosh!

The small white ball flew straight towards Isashiki Jun.

On the strike zone, Isashiki's nose was almost crooked with anger.

'They really take this uncle as the weak link of the lineup!'

"Don't underestimate me!"

In the face of this obvious Ball, Isashiki Jun swung the bat without any hesitation.

Using the bat as a battle axe, he slashed it head-on.

PING!

After the white ball was hit, it fell directly into the gap guarded by Hoshiryu High School.

When the baseball hit the ground, Sawamura returned to home plate and helped Seidou High School to take the lead.

Score 0:1!

Without any warning, Isashiki Jun counterattacked and scored a well-timed hit.

He himself had little joy with the hit.

Tetsu, Ryosuke, Chris…

These guys have grown tremendously one by one, only he is still standing still.

This will not work!

How could he be left behind?

Now he is crawling, and he has to crawl forward!

...

T/N: Isashiki has the Best Shoulder in the series, even better than Furuya and Hongou. The only reason that he wasn't a pitcher was because his pitching had a lot of power that he couldn't control where it was going. 2 out of 10 he threw was in the strike zone, which is a disaster.
