Chapter 71: Not This One!

Looking at the situation on the field, as if having Deja vu, the Sankou high Ace Manaka, who was hiding in the corner of the stand, wearing a baseball cap and covering most of his face, was also looking at Tanpa.

"Koichiro, the terror of that batter is extraordinary. Don't lose to him!"

On the strike zone.

"Kehahahaha, Kehahahaha!!"

Accompanied by a burst of low and sharp laughter, Raichi's eyes were fixed on Tanpa, and his mind simulated Tanpa's Forkball over and over again.

'When it got to hand, it suddenly sank, and the break was not small!'

'Gah, it's exciting to think about it.'

'Throw it over, throw it over, let me hit it out!!!'

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki let out a sigh. Although he is very tough on Tanpa with the calling, he still has no idea about how to deal with Raichi.

It's a very different feeling than Sawamura's on the mound.

Even when Sawamura was retaining his strength, Miyuki was still so nervous when facing Raichi.

'It's not necessarily my illusion. There may be something more terrifying hidden in this guy's swing.'

'Come, the first one, a Ball to the inner corner!'

Seeing Miyuki's sign, Tanpa nodded and threw the ball.

Whoosh!

The small white ball, like a laser, flew towards Miyuki's Mitt.

Ping!

Raichi swept the ball out with outstanding force.

"FOUL!"

"No! Not this one!"

Raichi returned to the stance of waiting for the ball, his eyes almost spewing flames.

Miyuki looked at Raichi and knew it in his mind.

'He's waiting for Tanpa-senpai's Forkball!'

'This is a good chance to defeat him!'

When he realized that Raichi was waiting for the Forkball, Miyuki instantly came up with a solution for Raichi.

'First, throw three or four balls that are not Forkballs, and constantly seduce Raichi.'

'This will shake the mind of Raichi…'

'When he gets the feeling that Tanpa-senpai won't throw a Forkball, then we will use the Forkball to finish him off.'

Perfect!

'There's no need to throw the ball in the strike zone, use a Ball in the corner and deal with the batter.'

After confirming that the opponent was aiming at the Forkball, Miyuki made a decisive decision to chase Raichi with other balls, shaking him, and finally using the Forkball in one go to solve him.

After all, there are very few batters with the mentality of Kominato Ryosuke, and not every batter has such a good mentality.

'As long as Tanpa-senpai doesn't throw a Forkball in a row, Raichi will definitely be shaken.'

Miyuki's countermeasures were good, but Tanpa didn't think so.

Facing the strike zone, the strength of Raichi is close to that of a monster.

'I don't want to run away from a first year!'

Tanpa's heart was filled with the thought of revenge for Manaka, plus the self-esteem of the third-year senior, Tanpa used more power when he pitched the ball.

This power is almost subconscious, and Tanpa didn't even notice it!

However, the more the ball distances itself from the mound, the more obvious it becomes.

The difference is becoming more and more obvious!

The ball that should have been thrown outside the strike zone was now going inside the strike zone.

Whoosh!

The white ball is flying!

In the face of this ball, Todoroki Raichi did not hesitate at all and resolutely swung the bat.

Ping!

In the position of the catcher, Miyuki's eyes were full of horror.

Unexpectedly, Tanpa would have the problem of wrong ball control and using too much force right now.

'Oh, no!'

'This ball will definitely be swept away!'

Miyuki had a very bad feeling about this.

The baseball flew all the way but it flew off the field.

"FOUL!"

"Not this one either!"

After the swing, Todoroki Raichi did not move or run. As if he expected the ball to be thrown out of bounds.

Then, he stared at Tanpa with a pair of fiery eyes.

'Come on, throw the ball just now!'

'The Forkball!'

'When it came to the hand, the Breaking ball suddenly sinks sharply.'

'Come on, Pitch it!!!'

The audience in the stands was also stunned by the performance of Raichi.

"Man, this guy is amazing."

"First Furuya and now Tanpa, it is really a surprise."

"Yakushi High School, Todoroki Raichi. He is becoming more famous after every battle!"

"It's because such monsters pop up from time to time in the competition that the competition in Tokyo is so interesting!"

Raichi!

At this moment, like a spotlight, he has become the focus of all eyes.

On the mound.

Tanpa's face became more and more ugly, and he obviously felt pressured by Raichi.

In the catcher's position.

Miyuki first breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at Raichi with a heavy face.

'I didn't expect this guy to be so troublesome.'

'That Foul just now, Todoroki did it intentionally!'

He deliberately didn't hit it forward but hit it out of bounds.

'He was provoking us to use Tanpa-senpai's Forkball.'

'Right now, no matter what ball is thrown, he will hit out of bounds.'

If you don't throw the Forkball all the time, it's them who are being chased!

But once the Forkball is thrown, the opponent is obviously aiming at the Forkball…

Miyuki took a deep look at Tanpa on the pitcher's mound.

Tanpa's fighting spirit is very high, and he obviously wants to face off against Raichi.

'OK!'

Tanpa wasn't frightened by Raichi's bat swing!

This made Miyuki very gratified.

'And since Tanpa-senpai is determined to fight head-to-head with Raichi using the Forkball, letting him throw other balls right now is not good, and it may be counterproductive.'

Two Strikes now!

'It's us who have the advantage. It won't be good if we are more scared than the other party!'

Since Tanpa's will is so firm, Miyuki did not go against his intentions, but even strengthened his resolve!

'Since you've made up your mind, Senpai, then there's nothing to say. Just use the Forkball to decide the outcome, okay!'

Down center, low Forkball!

Tanpa on the mound, Seeing the sign that Miyuki gave him, he nodded with great satisfaction.

'Kac-chan, Chris, Tetsu, and everyone…'

'Let me prove myself with my own pitching!'

Whoosh!

As if exerting all his strength, Tanpa's pitch roared through the top of the plate.

On the strike zone, the eyes of Raichi suddenly brightened.

'Here is it!'

'Here is it!'

'The Forkball that Just solved Akiba!!!'

BUZZ!!

After seeing the ball, Todoroki Raichi swung decisively.

The moment the bat was swung, the entire striking zone, including all the air in the area above the plate, seemed to be evacuated by that bat.

On this very ordinary bat, it seems to change into a wooden bat with two words written on it.

Money Tree!

That's right, it's a Money Tree. This is a swing worth thousands of dollars!

PANG!

The rapidly sinking ball was hit hard by the bat and then flew far away.

In the center field position, Isashiki kept running backward.

However, he is very helpless that his running has an end after all.

At the end of the border wall, Isashiki could no longer go forward.

Nevertheless, the ball hit by Raichi is still flying away!
