King's Green Road

Chapter 7 Part7 Red and White Battle ([-])
On the first base side bench, most of the freshmen were shocked that they could get back two runs from the seniors, and it was a two-run home run.

Their destroyed inner feelings were rebuilt by this guy named Eijun Sawamura.

"Although we only scored two points, the outcome of the game will start now! Let's raise our spirits!" Eijun smiled and said encouraging words to the freshmen on the bench.

"Oh... good!!!" The freshmen cheered up because of this, and responded to Eijun's words one after another, sweeping away the previous haze.

While Eijun and the others were on the mound, the first team's main pick also appeared on the sidelines.Among them, Jun Isashiki, who has the hottest temper, looked at the score on the field and yelled angrily.

"What are you guys doing? It's like this with the first grade!!!"

"Substitution!! Let me play!!" Isashiki Jun looked like he could not wait to rush to the field immediately.

Yoichi Kuramochi, a second-year contestant, hugged Jun Isashiki's waist tightly behind him, and controlled him, "Senior Jun...it can't be done...you just finished a bunch of weight training..."

Ryosuke Kominato, a third grader next to him, agreed with a smile on his face, "This competition is really embarrassing..."

In the end, Yuuki Tetsu, who was still the captain, couldn't stand it, and came out to host the scene, "Jun, let's watch the game quietly!"

stadium observation room
Minister Ota looked at Eijun Sawamura walking up the mound, and looked forward to it, "The player Mr. Takashima cares about is finally going to play."

"Yes, we can see if these second- and third-year lineups can handle his changeup." Takashima Rei also smiled and looked at the scene in front of him, "But what I valued most at the time was not his changeup, but his changeup. When the catcher misses the ball, his teammates always make mistakes at critical moments. Most players give up when there are consecutive mistakes, but he does lead the whole team with strong pitching. I can feel from his figure that he has become an ace pitcher. potential."

on the field
The first-year catcher Kou Kariba walked to the mound, looked at Eijun in front of him, and was about to ask about the specific pitch to pitch next.

As for the secret code, I have done it in the shooting practice together before, and now I need to determine the specific types of balls to shoot, and it has been about a month since the formation of shooting and catching, and he still has a high probability of missing some types of balls.

"Eijun, how do you plan to arrange the pitches later, after all, I still can't help me catch all your pitches?" Kariba Kou asked a little worried.

After all, the seniors' line play is not a joke. Although he thinks in his heart that Eijun's pitching can definitely solve them, he still needs to correct his mentality.

"Xiaohang, this time we will use my unique straight ball -- the weird ball as the main core match, plus the carter ball, changeup ball and accelerated straight ball as a surprise attack!"

"I believe we can solve these seniors, come on ^[-]^~, I will also throw my best ball into your ball sleeve!"

Ei Chun knew that the previous competitions still made Xiao Hang and the others a little afraid of the seniors, and the most needed thing at this time was to be steady.

Ko Kariba looked at Eijun with stable eyes and calm eyes, and really felt that he was as reliable as the trump card of the current team.

"Okay, then I know, I will also guide Ei Junli to shine in this game, and I will catch every ball you throw."

After speaking, he turned around, walked back to the home base and squatted down, indicating that Kataoka, who was the referee, supervised their side to get ready.

"Start pitching now!!"

"Please leave the defense behind me to everyone!" Eijun still said what he must say every game before he was about to throw the ball.

"Oh, we will be on guard!"

"Sawamura-san!"

"We'll catch every pitch we throw!!"

The first graders on defense behind them also responded to the boy's request, and the boy on the mound was as dazzling as a trump card at this moment.

Jiang Guxiao, who was on the first base bench, looked at such an interaction, and a faint envy flashed in his dark blue eyes, it's so good! ! !
Eijun looked at Xiaohang's high ball from the inside corner and smiled. Sure enough, Xiaohang is still a catcher who won't admit defeat!
The third-year hitter on the strike zone watched Eijun on the mound slowly raise his leg and step down, his arm fell out like a whip. If he didn't pay attention, the white ball shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and the hasty swing was nothing. , a strike.

"Woo, bang!!!" The loud sound of the ball entering the catcher's glove exploded in the hearts of everyone present.

"My God, the speed of this pitching ball is only 140km at most, and the sound of the ball entering the glove is terrible! It is not surprising to say that it is more than 150km."

"That's right, that's right, I just discovered a fastball pitcher, and another pitcher with such a heavy gun level, Qingdao seems to be in luck!!!"

"And this ball was thrown to the high corner of the inner corner. It looks like the ball control is better than that fastball pitcher!!!"

"Keep watching, after all, it's only one shot, and I can't see more things."

The surrounding onlookers were amazed by the ball.It's just that what they don't know is that the real specialness of this pitch is not noticed at all.

The form and speed of the pitch alone, combined with decent ball control, is enough to get most hitters to strike out.

They believe that the teenager's performance will not be too bad for the next pitch.

On the side of the First Army team beside the court, the three core hitters all became quite ugly when they saw the young man throwing the ball.

Yoichi Kuramochi noticed that the atmosphere of the team was dignified after the elementary school boy in his dormitory finished throwing the ball. Although he was also surprised that the junior boy's ball was so fierce, it wouldn't change the atmosphere of the first army.

Ryosuke Kominato here helped him answer his doubts, "Jun, it seems that this elementary school boy has evolved a lot from last year to this year!!"

"Well, I really want to play on the court to avenge last year, and it should be difficult for those guys on the court to have the strength to discover the essence of this guy's pitching!! Don't be completely attracted by this heavy-handed ball power. ah!!!"

Jun Isashiki looked at the guy on the mound rather unhappily. In the future, there will be opportunities to clean him up, and some will find places to find the field.

At this time, Eijun, who had just struck out three hitters on the mound, felt a chill on his back, feeling that some unscrupulous senior must be thinking about him.

"Didn't Masuko be sent to the Second Army under supervision? I think he will tell those guys." The most reliable natural stay captain Tetsuya Yuuki made a truthful judgment with full of aura.

"Liangsang, have you known the juniors in my dormitory for a long time?" Cang Mochi listened to the conversation of the seniors, and understood a little bit, probably lost to that guy Sawamura in the duel.

I really didn't expect this guy to have such a strong pitching ability. He thought he was a king with a strong mouth. He really underestimated Sawamura.

"Hehehe, it's nothing. Last year, I, Jun, Azhe and Masuko were all defeated by this guy and Miyuki. I feel sorry for the love of my junior if I don't get back the game?! "

Kominato Ryosuke said extremely gentle words with a smile, but it really made Kuramochi, who is a bad friend, couldn't help but tremble all over.

But Sawamura is actually so strong, um, no, he has to take a good look at it.

On the third base side bench, Masuko Toru also told his teammates before hitting the field that Sawamura's ball is a quirky ball that changes irregularly at its core. Don't be led away by the heavy power of the ball, or you will finally hit the ball , and no way to actually knock out a hit.

Speaking of the scene of the duel on the court, the strikeout of three bats is now the third pitch of the duel against four bats. I didn't expect this hitter to be so good at picking and hitting the ball, but he was destined to be struck out by him.

Eijun looked at the low acceleration straight ball from the outer corner of Kariba Koji, nodded in agreement, and threw it hard.

The shadow of the ball flies into the home plate area at the speed of light. At this time, the bat of the four-bat hitter will not only intersect with the ball, but also swing the bat a lot slower.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"

"Good shot, the hitter is out!!" Supervisor Kataoka's eyes lit up when he saw this ball, and he was indeed even better than last year.

When Wubang Masuko stepped onto the strike zone, his expression was quite shocked. Unexpectedly, Ozawa Village had evolved again.

The First Army team on the sidelines was also shocked by this.But they are still quite puzzled, didn't the first-year catcher miss the ball from Jiangu before? !How to catch the ball from this guy Sawamura, it is very steady! !

"Hahaha, I didn't expect this guy to evolve again. I said that I was willing to accompany him to shoot even when I asked him before, but he refused me. It turned out that I went to shoot and catch with the first grade!!!"

Miyuki Kazu from the sidelines also looked at Eijun on the mound and sighed with emotion with a smirk on his face.

Because of Miyuki's words, the players of the first army also understood the reason.

At this time, the duel between Eijun and Masuko Toru has also reached a fever pitch. Now Eijun is partnering with a first-year catcher. Many balls beyond the range of ability and the strongest pitch are restricted. One can't get out of the table.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"

"nice shot!"

"Bump, pong!!!"

"The outside world!"

"boom!"

"The outside world!"

"Boom! Bang!"

"Bad ball!"

In this duel, Zeng Zitou knocked out five foul balls, and the number of balls came to five out of bounds, one good and one bad.

Kariba Kou at the home plate looked at Masuko Toru's powerful swing and knew that he could only be solved by improving Sawamura's ability to pitch or unlock new balls.After weighing it up, he made a gesture to Eijun.

Eijun on the pitcher's mound saw this gesture and told himself to throw the ball with all his strength, and he would block it. This was also the result after weighing it.

It is true that there is a risk of missed catches if he tries his best to cast the existing balls, but he is really not even half sure about the new balls.

Seeing that Kariba Kou had made up his mind, Eijun had nothing to worry about.As usual pitching stance, throw this winning shot ----- low outside corner acceleration straight ball.

Masuko Toru on the strike zone also felt that it was going to be a decisive victory. The white shadow of the ball floated at the speed of light, and Masuko Toru swung the bat in his hand with all his strength.

Within a few millimeters, the white ball and the bat passed by.

"Boom, whoop, whoop!!!!"

"Strike hitter is out!!"

Obviously, Kariba Koto did not catch the ball well. Fortunately, Masuko Toru swung his bat, otherwise it would have been a bad ball.

After the exchange of offense and defense, it ushered in the offensive link of the first grade.

This time, the arrests of Kawakami Kenshi and Miyauchi Keisuke did not give the first-year an advantage again.

It lasted until the seventh inning, no one scored a hit, no turnovers, and zero seals in the second and third rounds.In the last two rounds, Supervisor Kataoka allowed the rest of the first-year players to play, and he realized what he said so that everyone could play.

In the end, the seniors won the welcome match with a big score of 27:3.

This game also made the surrounding audience very satisfied. I feel that this year's Qingdao is very hopeful to enter Koshien.

On the playground after the game, the contestants and the first army lined up neatly, waiting for Director Kataoka to announce the next candidate.

"Akatsuki Fuguya, Eijun Sawamura, Toru Masuko, Koichiro Tanba, Kenshi Kawakami, and Keisuke Miyauchi joined the First Army, Haruichi Kominato, Shinji Kanamaru, Hideaki Tojo, Hiroomi Takatsu and others Anyone who joins the Second Army or above is a candidate for promotion!"

Most of the contestants were a little disappointed that they were not selected, but the ones that were selected were indeed excellent!Moreover, some of them are just sent down in poor condition.

There is still the last chance to advance, and everyone's eyes are full of longing, and they will definitely... definitely enter the first army...! ! !
