Chapter 53: Unstoppable

In the first round of the Kanto Tournament, Seidou High School played the powerhouse Yokohama-North High School, which turned into a heated battle. 

The two sides launched a fierce battle in the fourth inning. First, Yokohama-North High School relied on a super-strong home run by Furano and scored two points. 

Not to be outdone, Seidou's continuous attack scored them 3 Run taking the lead again.

The score was 3:2, and Seidou was just one point ahead.

After that, Yokohama's Ace Ino persisted, conquered Shiratsu and Kuramochi again and again, and barely ended the fourth inning.

Such fierce attack and defense made the audience dizzy.

"It's brilliant! It feels like the pitchers of both teams are a little weak. But with such strong defensive support, they are still so precarious."

Some viewers couldn't help but ask questions.

In fact, during the game, it does feel that way. Whether it's Ino from Yokohama or Tanpa from Seidou, they seem to be struggling a little in the face of the opponent's line-up.

There is no strong air of a powerhouse Ace at all.

"What do you know?"

A senior fan next to him scoffed at the audience's question.

"The Ace of both teams is of course very strong, and their fielders are even more tempered. Any of the two teams, just the fielders alone are ranked high in the Nation. The reason why the pitcher seems to be incompetent is not that the pitchers are weak, but the offensive power of these two teams is too strong. The Yokohama headed by Furano and the Seidou headed by Yuuki, their offensive power is among the best of the best of the National level teams."

"It is precisely because the other party's attack power is too strong! It seems that the defenses of both sides are a little fragile."

It has to be said that The analysis of this veteran fan has some truth. Although the stability of the Batting power has always been hard to keep, the real powerhouse can always show terrifying attacking power every generation.

For example, Yokohama-North High School, for example, Seidou High School.

These two teams, at any given time, have a very intimidating attack.

In the first half of the fifth inning, Yokohama attacked.

Facing Yokohama's lower line, Tanpa threw in extraordinary form, Shutting Out Yokohama's batters three times.

Maybe it's because of Sawamura's pressure, but Tanpa is getting better and better right now. As his partner, Miyuki felt the deepest feeling. Judging from his feelings, the current Tanpa seems to be showing extraordinary fighting spirit in every Pitch.

In the second half of the fifth inning, Seidou High School attacked.

It was Kominato Ryosuke's turn to hit.

At this time, Kominato Ryosuke smiled like a devil.

Ping!

"FOUL!"

After two Strikes and one Ball, he was chased.

Ryosuke entered demon mode and began to deliberately hit Ino's pitches out of bounds.

At first, this is good, right?

But later, They gradually realized that something was wrong.

Ping!

"FOUL!"

"Ball!"

Ino has thrown a full eleven balls, all of which were thrown out of bounds by Kominato Ryosuke, and he also scored three Balls.

Two Strikes, three Balls, full ball count.

At this time, even a fool could see that something was wrong.

"You did a great job, Kominato-senpai."

"Just chase the pitcher."

"Watching pitchers being forced to throw so many pitches is strangely good."

In the stands, the Players of the Second String and the Third String kept cheering for Kominato Ryosuke.

in the dugout.

Seidou's Players roared excitedly one by one, this feeling was very refreshing.

Chris smiled and shook his head.

Ryosuke is too naughty, he is bullying the opponent's pitcher to burn his stamina. Even the Breaking-ball to the corner was hit out of bounds

"As expected of the devil brother, he is indeed amazing!"

Even Sawamura, who has experience before rebirth believes that his striking skills are far superior to those of ordinary high school students.

'Boy, it's so scary!'

That batter, if he was entangled by him, probably would have wanted to cry.

On the field, the Catcher, Haku frowned at Kominato Ryosuke, and to be honest, he was a little dumbfounded. Haku has never seen someone like Kominato Ryosuke who has tempered his skills to this level before.

Even the Breaking-balls to the corners are not missed, so it is very difficult to eliminate Kominato Ryosuke.

'A gamble is needed!'

'Then, Let's go fishing.'

Haku gave Ino a secret signal for a fishing ball.

On the pitching mound, Ino nodded and then threw a ball.

On the strike zone, Ryosuke Kominato carefully observed the path of the ball.

This is a good Pitch!

With the bat clenched in his hand, Ryosuke Kominato was ready to swing.

Wait, wait a minute. No, the trajectory of this ball will fly out of the strike zone.

Just before he was about to swing the bat, Ryosuke Kominato stopped his movements.

SNAP!

The baseball flew straight into the open glove of the catcher, Haku.

"Ball!"

"Walk to base!"

Ryosuke Kominato succeeded in the four Balls and was sent to base.

Looking at the face of pitcher Ino at this time, it was almost like eating a Bug.

'This sucker is disgusting!'

For a ball-handling expert like him, he was forced to make four Balls. One can imagine his bad mood.

No outs, a runner at first base.

"Please take care of me!"

At this time, a very polite figure walked up to the strike zone. He saluted the referee respectfully, then turned around, and immediately seemed to be a different person. Fierce face was full of evil intentions.

"Come on, watch me blow you up!"

The third Batter, Isashiki Jun, took the strike zone.

In the face of Isashiki, the first ball Haku asked for was a Ball.

He wanted to lure Isashiki, who was an active swinger, to swing the bat and win a number of Strikes.

As a result, he succeeded…

PING!

And failed.

Isashiki swung at the Ball, but he didn't miss the bat as Haku had expected, but instead smashed the ball in one breath, and the baseball fell on the open field in the outfield, forming a long hit.

Ryosuke went to third base and Isashiki went to second base.

No Out, runner at second and third base.

It's the turn for the fourth Batter, Yuuki Tetsuya.

At this time, Haku was still immersed in the shock of Isashiki's swing. Just now, Ino threw a high Ball to the inside corner and was too close to the batter. In theory, there is no way for a batter to swing in this position.

But Isashiki just swung the bat.

He swung the bat out like a machete.

The most terrifying thing is that Isashiki Jun also hit the outfield when he hit the ball in such a strange posture.

"It's unreasonable!"

Haku, who has always been calm, wants to punch someone.

At this time, the Batter was the most stable one, with two hits in two at bat Tetsuya took the strike zone.

Seidou's offensive, like a raging wave, was unstoppable.

Since Kominato Ryosuke, Ino has been out of rhythm.

And for a pitcher like him, once out of rhythm, is not far from a breakdown.
