Chapter 195: Champion!

"The Winner Is Seidou!"

The commentator just said the word and his voice was immediately suppressed by the cheering audience. The audience roared and vented.

Not just the audience on the field, but also the audience in front of the TV, especially the longtime fans of Seidou and the alumni like Azuma are shouting and cheering.

The whole stadium turned into a festival of celebration, but the field was another matter.

In the middle of all of this, standing on the mound, Sawamura was roaring his whole being to the sky while the waiting reporters were taking pictures of this moment before he was drowned by the players.

While he was drowned, Eijun's chest was full of happiness and relief.

One of his wishes has finally come true!

He finally helped the silently working Senpais of Seidou High School to fulfill their dreams.

At this moment, Seidou High School stands at the top of more than 4,000 schools all over the country.

They are the Champions!

The players were also going crazy on the field, the screaming Kuramochi was the fastest to hug and tackle Sawamura of all the infielders even the roaring Chris. Then all the other players Tetsu, Ryosuke, and the 'Ugaahing' Masuko followed.

The loud Isashiki was even louder with his screaming and roaring while running from the outfield to the mound like a maniac. Followed by the also roaring Sakai and Shiratsu who couldn't keep his usual calm at this moment.

Everyone seems to be floating in the clouds.

On the field, the substitutes included two first-year players, Haruichi and Furuya also rushed to the mound. (Even though Furuya was hesitant and didn't know what to do.)

They were also happy. Although their contribution to this champion is not very great, without their cornerstones, Seidou High School would not have grown to this level.

Everyone jumped up and down happily, They unknowingly surrounded the main players and formed a huge circle.

The main players, all with wide smiles on their faces, were extremely excited.

All their hard work, every run, every swing, every pass, every tear, every drop of sweat, all of that paid off.

Right now, the exhaustion from the long Tournament is gone, and what remains is only happiness and excitement.

Just let them relax. It's been too tight for the past three years, and it's time for them to relax.

In the stands.

The entire third-year retired players were celebrating. And they looked at the field with happiness, for their teammates didn't let them down, and brought them the highest honor.

Kanemaru, Maezono, Toujou, and the rest of the second and first year, were celebrating and cheering loudly.

Their choice was not wrong!

When they chose to come to Seidou, their friends and former teammates said that Seidou was declining and that they should go to a more promising team.

Some even mocked their choice behind their back.

But they didn't choose wrong, as Seidou now is the National Champion!

They all looked at the field, with happiness in their eyes there was also determination.

'Next time, it's our turn!'

In the dugout, Coach Kataoka cheered and bumped his fists excitedly. This man, who has always been calm and composed, couldn't control his emotions at this moment.

Beside him, Coach Ochiai stroked the goatee on his chin with a wide smile and his usual shuddering.

As He and Kataoka knew that, the end of one phase represented the beginning of another. But now is not the time to talk about that, let the kids be happy.

'They still have a long way to go!'

In the stands, President Ota and Deputy President Takashima Rei also had beaming smiles on their faces.

Although their presence is a bit worse than that of Coaches. But without their silent support behind their backs, Seidou High School would probably not have reached this far.

It is rude to say that now Seidou High School can achieve this achievement without their support.

The chubby principal and the screeching dean are thrilling. The two hugged each other excitedly and exchanged congratulations, tears gushing out like a fountain.

This! Is! Great!

Who will dare to say that Seidou High School is a declining Famous School when they talk about them in the future?

National championships are not for everyone.

They were so happy they had gone this far to recruit Sawamura!

Although this game did not score too many points, there were a lot of things to talk about in the game.

The strength shown by Seidou High School still makes people feel thrilling.

Among them, the performance of the main players is either impressive or a blockbuster.

All in all, it's a stage where you can really make a name for yourself. Many people are famous all over the country through this stage.

Among all the players, the most amazing is Sawamura Eijun.

18 strikeouts and two hits in a single game, including a streak of 12 Strikeouts.

In the finals, he Pitched to the end, but he lost no hits or runs.

A Perfect Game!

In the finals of Koshien, he pitched a Perfect Game.

All of that as a first-year Ace.

If that is not enough to prove his title as the Demon King, then Nothing is.

In the midst of all of these celebrations, the players of Seidou were reminded by the smiling umpire to stand in line.

For that, they came to their senses for a bit and started to calm down.

Then they realized, it was finally over...

The players of Seidou High School, who had drawn a perfect ending, had a hint of sadness in their laughter.

It's really over!

When training normally, who does not complain? Who doesn't want this painful training to end soon?

But after the last game, everyone felt a little bit of inexplicable sadness.

This situation is most evident in the third-year Senpais.

It's just that now is not a time to remember, especially for the players of Seidou High School, they are even less likely to remember this here.

The long-cherished wish for many years has been perfectly fulfilled at this moment. No matter what everyone thinks, their faces are filled with the brightest smiles.

This is the glory of the school, and it is the best gift for the players of the Seidou High School baseball team to their school, and the honor for the next generations to have.

Meanwhile.

The players of Komadai Fujimaki High School squatted on the ground one by one as if they had been drained of all the strength in their bodies.

This is the difference between winners and losers.

After losing in the finals, many players at Komadai Fujimaki High School, especially the third-year players, cried a lot.

Thinking of their hard work in the past three years, they are actually very happy in their hearts for entering Koshien and winning the runner-up. But it was just one step short, and they failed to reach the top, and failed to have the last laugh.

They were unhappy.

'Maybe I should have worked harder when I trained.'

'Maybe I should have worked harder during the game…'

'The result is different could been different!'

Many of them have such regrets.

One by one, the hot-blooded young men were crying bitterly, unable to make a sound.

There are their regrets, their unwillingness, and a tribute to their high school baseball career.

It's over, it's all over.

Three years of hard work in high school baseball drew a less-than-perfect end to this moment.

But they have to stand in line now for the last greeting.

"THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT PLAY!!"

"THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT PLAY!!"

After the bow, with the applause of the audience, the players of the two teams handshake each other.

But unlike the usual, the loser gave their congratulation to the winner, not their blessing, for this is the end, the highest peak.

The third-year players of Seidou gave their thanks to Komadai and hoped to see them in higher stages.

"Next time, let's play again."

Sawamura stretched out his hand to Hongou and said.

The victory over Hongou this time is very different from the feeling of defeating Hongou in middle school.

In middle school, whether it was to defeat Narumiya Mei, or to defeat Hongou Masamune.

There is a feeling of adults bullying children. This feeling is very strange, but it is also in line with the identities of both parties at the time.

After all, at that time, Narumiya and Hongou hadn't grown up yet.

But it was different after entering high school. As the severity of the game increased, the strength of both sides naturally rose with the tide.

The top players in high school can be equated with professional baseball players.

That is to say, the current Narumiya and Hongou already have very terrifying prowess, and they have all grown up completely.

Although their strength is still a little far from their peak strength, there is no doubt that they now have a prototype of top performance.

In this case, Eijun can still defeat them, which shows that Sawamura has indeed made progress, and the progress is not small.

In the days to come, whether it is Narumiya or Hongou, they will not wait in place, and they will continue to move forward.

And Sawamura could not be immersed in the short-lived joy of victory.

He will continue to work hard to maintain this advantage.

That's why he told Hongou, let's play in the future.

People can't do it without motivation. Whether it is Hongou, Narumiya, or the other rivals.

Sawamura will go faster and go further.

The vast majority of people at Komadai Fujimaki High School cried, even their assistant coaches.

If someone tells them before coming to Koshien, they can participate in the competition in Koshien and win the runner-up. the vast majority of people will be very excited and not at all dissatisfied.

But having already reached the finals of Koshien, it would be a different feeling to be one step away from dominating the country and then winning the runner-up.

No wonder they were crying.
