Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 115 This is also a game we cannot lose

"Third batter, first baseman, Yuuki-san."

Walking into the batter's box, facing the thunderous cheers all around, Yuki was not surprised, but rather took it for granted.

Seidou High School is now in the lead, and the cheerleading team's momentum must be ahead of Daocheng Industrial. When Yuki came on the court, no boos could be heard at all.

This may be what it means that strength determines the playing environment.

Cheng Gongming's condition is already quite bad, and Daocheng Industrial may continue to lose points if the defense continues.

If they score one point, they can still catch up or even overtake by relying on their batting line and when the opponent's pitcher is in poor condition.

But if the score continues to widen, it won't be so easy to do.

Once the score widens to three points or even five points, it is no longer possible to catch up.

If the situation really comes to that, Seidou High School can celebrate their entry into Koshien after five years.

This kind of thing must never happen.

But Harada naturally had no choice.

It is true that Cheng Gongming listens to him very much, but now he is definitely the type who won't listen to a word he says.

Let him adjust slowly.

It’s not that I don’t want to persuade you, it’s just that it’s useless to persuade you.

It’s better to save your breath than to advise such a twisted person.

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha, this is the game I want. It's so interesting."

Cheng Gongming laughed while standing on the pitcher's mound.

The players in the infield heard it especially clearly. Kuramochi, Tamba, Shirakawa, Yoshizawa, Harada, Yamaoka Riku, and Yuki who was preparing to play, all heard it clearly.

"What's going on? Is this kid stupid?"

Kuramochi looked confused.

You are lagging behind now, so please don't behave like this.

Seeing Cheng Gong Ming's silly look, Harada felt relieved.

He hasn't been defeated yet.

Cheng Gongming is usually a bit crazy, but not to the extent of being crazy in Honglei City.

Just slightly worse than Sawamura.

"No matter who hits next, don't even think about scoring against me!"

Cheng Gong Ming was facing sideways towards Yuki, but his eyes were on Zhou Hui who was in the strike zone.

His real opponent seems to be Zhou Hui.

"Where are you looking? I am your opponent."

"It's the same for everyone. You won't get any more hits."

As he spoke, Cheng Gong Ming raised his leg, stuck two fingers into the baseball, and threw the ball with all his strength.

"Whoosh!"

"This time the ball speed is obviously faster than before."

Seeing the speed of the ball, Yuki was not panicked.

It is far inferior to Kougu Aki's pitching speed and is not worth mentioning.

Yuki pulled the bat from the back of his head, apparently using all his strength.

If this ball hits the center of the ball, I don't know how far it will fly.

"be cheated."

The baseball fell rapidly and fell out of the strike zone.

"Fuck."

Yuki still thought one step too far and forgot that Cheng Gongming could use the fork ball.

The forkball is very similar to the straight ball. If you are impatient when the forkball is just being thrown, it is easy to confuse it with the straight ball.

Now, Yuki’s stick has been swung out and can’t be pulled back.

"Qiang!"

Taking a gamble, Yuki hit the ball with the bat anyway.

But he didn't hit the center of the ball, but hit the bottom of the baseball, causing Yuki to stagger.

“Hahahahahaha, go to hell!”

Cheng Gong Ming rushed out of the pitcher's mound and caught the baseball.

The baseball at most rolled to the pitcher's mound. Tamba at third base did not run to home plate, nor did he have any way to run there.

"Whoosh!"

"Snapped!"

Riku Yamaoka caught the ball. "Out!"

Two outs, runners on second and third base.

The situation suddenly became complicated.

The main reason is that no one could have imagined that the captain of Qingdao High School, the strongest hitter in Zhou Hui's era, would hit a ground ball towards the pitcher's mound.

Harada’s assist was definitely one factor, but another factor was that Yuki wasn’t very calm.

As soon as you see that you are about to score, your adrenaline starts rushing, your mind becomes relatively calm, and you swing the bat as soon as you see the baseball, causing yourself to be eliminated.

This doesn't seem like something a captain would do.

In the finals, everyone wants to score points and win, so reason naturally loses out.

All the players on the field seemed like emotionless lunatics, fighting for that ticket to Koshien.

How magical are the tickets to Koshien that make these kids so crazy about them?

"Fourth batter, left fielder, Mr. Zhou."

"finally come."

After hearing Zhou Hui's name, Cheng Gongming was full of energy, like a "beast".

In the entire Qingdao High School, perhaps only Zhou Hui could arouse his interest.

The title of a cross-era hitter is not an exaggeration to describe Zhou Hui.

"bring it on."

Zhou Hui walked into the batter's box, took a few deep breaths, raised the bat, and looked straight ahead.

Zhou Hui's arms are still in a tense state, and they may not be stretched enough when he swings the bat, but his strength is definitely full.

It can be hit far, but it is not beautiful and it is not far enough to hit a home run.

The goal Zhou Hui set for himself was to get one point.

"Whoosh!"

When facing Zhou Hui, Cheng Gong Ming has always been quick and decisive. Even if Harada has not given him the signal, his straight ball has already come through.

The ball went into Harada's glove along the strike zone near Zhou Hui's chest.

"Snapped!"

"nice shot!"

Almost as soon as the referee announced that the pitching could begin, Cheng Gongming's ball had already been thrown over, and Zhou Hui was even adjusting his bat grip.

There was no time to swing the bat.

"I'm really anxious."

Zhou Hui also admired Cheng Gongming, but was also worried about his impatient temper.

For the second goal, Cheng Gong Ming still did his own thing.

"Whoosh!"

The white ball came flying over with a deafening sound of tearing through the air and landed right next to Zhou Hui's hand.

Zhou Hui saw the ball clearly, straightened his arm and swung the bat.

"Qiang!"

"Why is it so heavy?"

Zhou Hui was shocked!
This was the first time he felt the weight of a pitcher's ball.

Zhou Hui felt his arm go numb, but he endured the numbness and carried the ball out.

The little white ball was carried up into the sky, but it could only go high but not far.

Generally, no one dares to use such words to describe Zhou Hui's ball.

Zhou Hui's balls are always high and far, but this time is an exception.

Cheng Gong Ming stood on the pitcher's mound, his mouth almost crooked with smile.

If Sanada's ball that eliminated Zhou Hui was an extraordinary performance by a fielder, then he relied on his own strength.

"Snapped!"

The sound of the baseball falling into the fielder's glove and the sound of Cheng Gongming snapping his fingers rang out at the same time.

It seemed like he was deliberately mocking Zhou Hui.

"Out! Three outs! Attack and defense switch!"

In this game, Qingdao High School failed to score any points despite facing such a good situation, which was really unexpected.

Running back to the lounge, Cheng Gongming looked at Zhou Hui's lonely back and felt secretly happy.

"We can't lose this game!"
