Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 13 Trump's Declaration of War

"It's simple."

Looking at the baseball flying out and hitting a home run, Zhou Hui put the bat back naturally.

It is not difficult for him to hit a home run at this speed and from this position.

If he can't hit this well, he would be ashamed to be called the best hitter in the country.

“This should be the strongest hitter this year.”

Looking at Zhou Hui's performance, Director Kataoka nodded, very satisfied with Zhou Hui's performance.

As expected, he is a player who was recruited after three invitations. He is different.

"It's too early to draw conclusions. The first years haven't even finished their match yet! And Makihara-san's pitching speed isn't very fast, so someone should be able to catch up."

"There is no chance anymore. Even if someone hits out, his strength cannot match Zhou Hui. Perhaps the only pitcher in our Qingdao High School who can suppress him is Tamba."

Director Kataoka affirmed Zhou Hui's strength.

"what?!"

Minister Ota did not expect that Supervisor Kataoka would have such a high opinion of Zhou Hui.

The former director Kataoka didn't pay any attention to the students' achievements in junior high school.

That is all in the past tense and cannot represent your current strength.

There are many junior high school stars who came to Qingdao High School but still failed to make it into the first team.

Some are due to injuries, which is undoubtedly the most regrettable.

Every athlete does not want to be injured.

For them, injuries are like a sharp knife.

Another reason is madness!
There are many Chinese celebrities who are arrogant and think they are great. They are fearless and will not submit to anyone.

In the second half of junior high school, he started to neglect training, spent all day fooling around, and was irresponsible for his own future.

However, with that little bit of talent, he was still noticed by several prestigious schools and started his high school career.

But after entering high school, nothing has changed, it is still the same as junior high school.

Gradually, he was eliminated and his future was ruined.

There are many geniuses in high school, and all of them will work harder than you.

That’s what it means when people who are better than you work harder than you!
These people who ruin their own careers are simply the most hateful!
"Even Kanamaru and Tojo failed to hit Makihara's ball, which proves everything. Kanamaru and Tojo are nothing more than a microcosm of the upper limit of these people."

The facts were exactly as Director Kataoka thought. Until the end of the test, no one else could hit a home run.

Moreover, among the thirty batters behind Zhou Hui, only four hit a hit!
This also shows how strong Zhou Hui's sense of oppression is.

Being ranked behind Zhou Hui did make them feel some pressure, and it was normal that they did not play well.

"Okay, we have recorded everyone's rookie test data. I will show it to Coach Kataoka this afternoon. Today is your first day at Qingdao. Let you adapt first. There will be no training in the afternoon. The formal training will start tomorrow!"

Tian Ben announced the next arrangements for the first graders.

Fortunately, they didn't have training this afternoon.

This also gave the first graders a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there is no training.

On the first day they arrived at Qingdao High School, they were shocked by the intensity of the training there.

Just the morning run was enough to make them complain. They couldn't imagine what kind of horrible training was waiting for them after they arrived at the Second Army.

"Fortunately, I don't have to train in the afternoon."

"That's right. I almost died of exhaustion from running in the morning."

"Is Qingdao's training so hard?"

After waiting for Tian Ben to leave, several first-year students finally started complaining.

When Tian Ben was here just now, they didn't dare to say a word. "How do you feel about this year's freshman?"

Tian Ben asked Masumi Makihara, who was in charge of testing the first-year pitchers. He undoubtedly understood the first-year students best.

Apart from him, no one in their group had a direct conversation with these first-years.

Masumi Makihara shrugged and said, "As for stars, there are indeed many more than last year. But I don't think there are many special ones. Last year, there were Miyuki and Kuramochi to support the team, which made it less ugly. Obviously, this year's Kanamaru and Tojo can't be compared with them. If I were to say, the overall strength is not as good as last year."

Masumi Makihara never mentioned that home run.

"So what's with that home run? Isn't that kid pretty strong?"

Tian Ben showed a malicious smile, wanting to see how Makihara Masumi would explain it.

Masumi Makihara was forced to blush.

Although he didn't use his full strength, it looked like Zhou Hui didn't use his full strength either.

Maybe his strength is really above mine.

No, he's just a first-grade rookie!

There is absolutely no way that there is anyone stronger than yourself.

"Director Kataoka told me at the beginning that the main thing to deal with these first-year students is to use tests, and he didn't let me use my full strength at all."

Masumi Makihara is still looking for excuses for taking the self-study exam, but everyone has already seen what the situation is.

Zhou Hui is so strong that even if Makihara Masumi uses all his strength, he is no match for him.

But due to his relationship with Masumi Makihara, they did not expose him.

The first graders did not have training in the afternoon, so most of them chose to stay in the dormitory.

Even if it's just for fun, I won't go to train.

In Room No. 5, although Eijun Sawamura was eager to go to training, he had lost his qualification as a pitcher because of his lateness this morning.

He could only stay in the dormitory and sulk.

Perhaps he and Zhou Hui are the few first-year students who want to go for training.

Zhou Hui wanted to go to training because he wanted to become stronger and quickly join the starting lineup of the first team.

He has always been a competitive person, even in junior high school.

But Sawamura Eijun just doesn't want to be idle at all.

After packing up in the dormitory, Zhou Hui took his wooden baseball bat and went to Qingdao High School's training hall.

Qingdao High School is divided into a training hall and a training ground.

The training ground is outdoors and the training hall is indoors.

“There shouldn’t be anyone here at this hour.”

Zhou Hui pushed open the door of the training hall and talked to himself.

But just as he stepped in, a tall and familiar figure looked in this direction.

"Tamba-senpai?"

Zhou Hui was puzzled. Shouldn't the First Army still be training at this time? Why was Senior Tamba here?
"Zhou Hui? What a coincidence?"

"I just wanted to come and practice my swing."

"Don't worry about that for now. Now that we're here, let's fulfill our agreement first!"

When talking about this, Tamba Koichiro's eyes lit up.

"Let's have a battle!"

The ace pitcher declares war on you!
