Chapter 61: The King's Will
"This is troublesome!"
Yoshida on the mound looked at Yoichi Kuramochi, who was eager to try at first base and was about to steal a base.
And Kominato Haruichi who is also very restless standing on the strike zone.
He has only one head and two big ones.
It was almost one of the best scoring situations for Seido High School baseball.
It's not for nothing that Kuramochi will be called the offensive engine of Seido High's baseball team.
He was the first batter, and the second batter after that was the star player Haruichi Kominato, whose striking skills are famous all over the country.
The cooperation of these two people is enough to give any pitcher a headache.
And even if someone escapes their cooperation by chance, they have to face the big devil Eijun Sawamura after them and Kazuya Miyuki, the fourth batman of the Seido High School baseball team.
In fact.
As long as Kuramochi hits the bases successfully at the beginning of the game.
The number of times that the Seido High School baseball team failed to score is one of the few.
Now they have to face such a dangerous situation at the beginning of the game.
And that's not the worst of it.
The most troublesome thing is their mistake just now.
Obviously, during the practice before, Kikuchi could already catch the meteors like that.
Unexpectedly, in today's game, he made a mistake the first time he caught the ball...
This is more embarrassing.
Can this kind of ball continue to be used?
becomes an unknown.
If you continue to use it, what if Kikuchi fails to get out of the previous psychological shadow and makes mistakes?
If he doesn't continue to use it, his pitching ability will be greatly reduced.
At that time, can I still suppress the players of King Qingdao High School baseball team?
Kouki Yoshida is caught in a dilemma.
He really doesn't know what choice to make now?
What kind of choice is the most beneficial choice for them.
"pause!"
In the face of such a complicated situation, it is necessary to unify our thinking.
Although the game has just started, in the current situation, the probability of them losing points in the first game is very high.
Considering that the opponent is the most prestigious big devil in the country, their chances of scoring points are pitifully small.
A difference of one point may directly determine the outcome of the game.
In order not to be so passive, it is understandable to think of some tactics in advance.
All the friends were called together, and Yoshida, who was standing in the center, didn't seem nervous.
"My fault!"
Kikuchi pushed up the mask on his face, and said with a face of shame.
"Don't say that, who hasn't made a mistake yet?"
"Don't worry about it, just catch it later."
The friends around immediately comforted him.
The atmosphere of Jinzunong High School should be regarded as the best among all the teams in Jiashien.
The 9 of them have been together since first grade,
Work hard together until now.
This kind of affection is simply unmatched by ordinary teams.
Their tolerance and understanding of each other is far beyond the imagination of ordinary teams.
Although the friends said that, Kikuchi still looked ashamed.
Just now, he was actually afraid!
Facing the ball thrown by his partner, he subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
I don't know if it's his illusion, since this guy Yoshida entered Koshien, he is like those wild animals in the zoo who have been released from restraint.
The strength of the whole person has improved a lot.
Even the most common straight ball is more powerful than before.
Not to mention other pitches!
Almost every game he is good at has evolved to varying degrees.
This tendency was already evident during the match against Qingzhengshe.
Now, it's even worse.
His hidden lore ball felt like a real shooting star, suddenly falling.
The angle of the flying fall is much trickier than before.
Without any psychological preparation, how could he catch this kind of ball suddenly?
Kikuchi opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
For them, Yoshida can evolve, which is the most perfect.
What can he say?
Do you want Xiaohui to be merciful when throwing the ball?
The opponent is the Kings Qingdao High School baseball team.
If they do that, I'm afraid they won't even know how they died.
So, never do that!
I can only try my best to make up for this gap, so as not to increase the burden on Xiaohui and his friends.
"Believe me, I will definitely catch it the next time I vote."
Kikuchi swore a promise.
"Don't be so serious, it doesn't look like you at all."
Yoshida smiled and explained.
"I know everyone is nervous, and so am I. Up until now, when I pitched, my hands were still shaking. Although I had set the goal before, I wanted to hit Koshien. But after actually hitting Koshien , I clearly know how far we are from?"
"At first, I thought that after so many years of silent efforts, our current strength is already very strong. Wasn't it like that when we played against Qingzhengshe before? We completely overwhelmed them to reach the top 16."
"But the opponent in front of me is different."
While talking, Yoshida set his eyes on the rest area of Seidou High School baseball team.
The friends around also set their eyes there.
The person who could only be seen on TV before, the guy called the Great Demon King Sawamura Eijun.
Standing opposite me now, they are playing on the same court.
Just thinking of this, the friends felt that their bodies were full of inexplicable restlessness.
Before they knew it, they had reached this place.
Before, even if it was only a month ago.
Tell them that they can make it to Koshien, and stand on the same field as the Wangwang Qingdao High School baseball team.
They don't believe it themselves.
What are you kidding?
There are so many high schools in the country, thousands of colleges and universities, and there will be no more than 15 teams who really have the opportunity to play against the Wangwang Qingdao High School baseball team.
How can they have such an honor?
Although they also know very well in their hearts that as long as they keep winning, sooner or later they will meet the Qingdao High School baseball team.
But there is not only one Qing Dao in the whole country, how could they pass all the way and kill all the opponents.
They never expected that what they dared not think of before would finally become a reality.
Just today.
They dream come true.
In the arena of Koshien, compete with the country's most prestigious king Qingdao High School baseball team.
The feelings of the little friends are very complicated.
They try hard to perform well, and want to show everyone their hard work and progress in the past three years.
But the pressure coming from the opposite side is really too great! Don't give them any chance at all.
So much so that they had a very strong illusion.
They may not be rivals!
It is under the influence of this subconscious that the players feel that their bodies are much stiffer than before.
To put it bluntly, this is a sign of inexperience.
Although they had won the Qingzheng Society before, they were typical newborn calves who were not afraid of tigers at that time. They have no idea at all how far their own strength has reached.
Win the game with your eyes closed!
It wasn't until they won the game that they suddenly realized that their own strength was already so strong!
When they faced the Qingdao High School baseball team, they already had a certain estimate of their own strength.
With their strength, in fact, if they are lucky, they may not be able to compete for the championship.
But in terms of strength, the top four and eight should be more reliable.
With such a mental burden on his back, he went to compete with Qingdao High School.
They realized how difficult it was.
And at this time, they no longer have the spirit of newborn calves, and the ideological pressure is naturally heavier.
"We are weeds, and it is only natural that we are not as strong as our opponents. But are we going to admit defeat like this?"
Every time Yoshida speaks, his whole body seems to glow.
The friends looked at Yoshida like this, as if devout believers saw the god they believed in.
The eyes are full of dependence and trust.
"The Qingdao High School baseball team is not an ordinary boulder, they are the legendary granite, the hardest rock. But so what? Don't forget that we are a thriving weed. Even if the opponent is granite, in order to survive, in order to When we see the sun, we will be able to push it away."
Listening to Yoshida's metaphor, the friends seem to have seen such a scene with their own eyes.
The solid granite was forced to the side by weeds.
"That's right!"
"That's it!"
The friends followed suit one by one.
What Yoshida said is not wrong at all, they are weeds, how can they easily admit defeat?
Although they have never been as strong as the other, they also have something that the opponent doesn't have.
That is the ambition and tenacity not to admit defeat.
As long as they can entangle the Qingdao High School baseball team, they will stop at nothing to bring down their opponents.
"Don't worry about what happened just now, I believe you can get it."
Finally, Yoshida put his eyes on Kikuchi and said seriously.
Kikuchi nodded vigorously.
Yes.
He must do it, even if he dies!
These guys from Qingdao High School's baseball team must not be allowed to continue being so arrogant.
After a timeout, the momentum of Jinzunong High School changed a lot.
The friends of Qingdao High School baseball team, can't guess what they discussed on the pitcher's mound?
But looking at the aura shown by the other party, they can more or less see some clues.
The state of these guys has changed. If they were originally a group of sheep, they are now transformed into a group of hungry wolves.
Shed the sheepskin and turned back into a hungry wolf.
I don't know if they have returned to their true colors, or just discussed on the mound, what countermeasures did they have?
The boys on Seido High's baseball team don't know anything about it.
All they can do is not waste the opportunity to get on base.
Try to get this one down.
In today's game, the aces of the two teams are of a particularly powerful and reliable type.
If all goes well, it's going to be a close pitching battle.
In such a fierce pitching battle, the side that scores first will undoubtedly take the initiative.
In the rest area.
Sawamura Eijun put on his batting gloves, got ready to wait for the batting position, and observed Yoshida's pitching from a close distance.
For this opponent, Sawamura Eijun respected him from the bottom of his heart.
High school baseball boys, here we are talking about better baseball boys.
Generally, there are two types.
One of them is like Sawamura, who regards baseball as his life.
His original goal was not in high school, but in the big leagues.
The vast majority of baseball players who join wealthy clubs across the country are of this type.
Besides that, there is another type.
They put the brightest time in their lives on high school baseball.
In order to be able to shine on the field of Koshien, they even did not hesitate to burn their baseball lives.
Yoshida is such a type of player.
