Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 213: Yamamori's counterattack! Bases full crisis!

The whole audience was shocked when they saw the baseball slowly fly out of the field like a meteor and hit a home run.

Whether it was the fans of Qingdao High School, the cheerleaders, or the professional baseball scouts, after seeing Zhou Hui's home run, their mouths were so big that they could fit an egg in them.

So stupid, so stupid!
They are all stupid!
Zhou Hui actually hit another home run!

In his last at-bat, Zhou Hui just hit a home run worth three points, and now he scored another home run.

Although there is no one on the base now and this home run is only worth one point, it is still a home run after all.

Of course Qingdao High School was happy that they got a point without relying on tactics or brains.

What's more, although the significance of a home run is to score points, over the years, there has been little connection between the appearance of home runs and scoring.

It's just one point. Although it is important sometimes, it is not worth mentioning most of the time.

Especially a team like Seidou High School.

In every game against strong teams, they can't get more than five or six points.

When facing weak teams, the score difference is more than double digits. Is one point important to them?

Of course it's negative.

Just this home run was a feast for the eyes for people.

When evaluating a hitter's strength, home runs account for a large proportion of the score.

If home runs were just for scoring points, then it would be impossible for Dongqingguo to be signed directly by the professional baseball team without ever playing in Koshien.

Home runs are still about expressing yourself, and have a lot to do with exposure.

Dong Qingguo in the audience applauded.

In this game, he has seen Zhou Hui hit two home runs.

It really has the style of its own back then.

The only difference is that when Zhou Hui hits a home run, he will be chased by little fans.

And what about him?
You'll just get some random shouting from your own sex.

Zhou Hui’s looks are obvious, so naturally he will have more little fans.

But that's not the case with him.

He looks like a middle-aged man, is large in build, and is missing two front teeth.

No matter how you look at it, he has nothing to do with the word "male god".

He played baseball, hit home runs, never for love.

Dong Qingguo himself knew that sweet love would never come to him.

All he can do is keep playing hard and make a lot of money.

This is his future life plan!
After running three bases, Zhou Hui returned to home plate and scored!
6: 3!

The score between Qingdao High School and Yamamori Academy was further widened.

Zhou Hui stomped hard on the home plate. It was not just a point, it was also his fifth home run.

"You are a little too eye-catching, kid. Do you know how to give some face to the seniors?"

Seeing Zhou Hui running back, Isajiki Jun got angry for some reason.

Maybe it's more of envy and jealousy.

If he had this physical talent, he would not have failed to become the fourth batter in Qingdao High School.

To be honest, there is a reason why Jun Isashiki cannot be the fourth batter.

He only has strength, but not a kind heart at all.

When he hit the ball, it was usually just far enough away and he couldn't hit the center of the ball at all.

This is because he doesn't want to, and doesn't have the patience to find the center of the ball.

Although he has great power, sometimes he just can't hit the ball into a home run or even a hit.

Even so, as long as he has strength, he can still be a useful hitter for Seidou High School.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself."

"You boy!"

Although his tone sounded angry, Isajiki Jun was still proud of Zhou Hui.

Seeing Zhou Hui's outstanding performance, Isajiki Jun also knew that the future of Qingdao High School was definitely stable.

It’s just that he didn’t have such outstanding strength at the beginning.

This made him regret.

If he had the same ability as Zhou Hui at that time, he could have taken his seniors to Koshien to take a look.

There was also a former captain of Seidou High School who shared the same dormitory with Jun Isashiki.

The former captain took good care of Isashiki Jun, and was really sad about not bringing him into Koshien.

However, with Zhou Hui's ability, let alone Isajiki Jun, there are probably few people who don't want him.

But this talent is too rare and cannot be achieved through hard work alone.

With this kind of talent, you may have needed to save the galaxy in your previous life to be favored by God.

Apart from acquired efforts, it is a gift from God.

Whether it is luck or self-discipline, Zhou Hui is at a level that others cannot reach.

Even though the seniors at Qingdao High School thought they were sweating profusely every day, when they saw Zhou Hui's training volume, they felt that what they did was actually insignificant.

"Fifth batter, center fielder, Isashiki-san."

"Throw the ball over here! Throw it hard!"

Isashiki Jun pointed his bat at Kamisashi Yuto and shouted.

It feels a bit bluffing.

"A clown who seeks to attract attention."

Although I say this, my body is still very honest.

Kamizuru Kazuto knew that he was no match for this guy, so he threw a high-angle lob as his first ball.

"Whoosh!"

It’s just a pity that, in a sense, Isashiki Jun’s attacks have even less blind spots than Zhou Hui’s.

As long as he can touch it, no matter whether it is a good ball or a bad ball, he just needs to hit it.

"Qiang!"

The baseball was hit and was pushed out by a huge force.

But because it was not in the strike zone, the baseball flew crookedly and slowly.

When the first baseman noticed it, he ran over and caught the baseball.

"Snapped!"

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

Before Isajiki Jun could finish his big talk, he was taken down.

Just now he said that they could vote freely, but now it seems that they are dealing with him very casually.

Isajiki Jun left scratching his head.

"Really? That ball was obviously a bad one. Why did you still swing at it?"

Back in the lounge, Isajiki Jun couldn't help but be criticized.

The first one to come up was Miyuki.

His sense of the ball is such that he can still feel it even when it's not in the strike zone.

What's more, he watched the entire attack just now.

Baseball players have no intention of going for the strike zone, but this guy just carried it out directly.

It is normal to be caught.

"You're still blaming me. If there was no one on the base, your play would have been just as ugly!"

Isajiki Jun's personality is that he can't stand being wronged, and he immediately fights back after being scolded.

Although he knew he was wrong, he still couldn't help but scold Miyuki.

Yukichi shook his head.

This senior is just like that, the kind that is hopeless.

Yukichi had no choice but to retort.

He knew that he would not gain any advantage by continuing to quarrel with Isajiki Jun.

Although he has a poisonous tongue, if he doesn't say anything sarcastic, he is no match for Isajiki Jun if he just scolds him in a purely offensive way.

What's more, the person in front of him is his senior, so he should still give him some face.

Talk about it, talk about it, make trouble.

The atmosphere of Qingdao High School was aroused. The most important thing was the two points obtained in this game.

The cooperation between Kuramochi and Shirasu, and Zhou Hui's home run.

The atmosphere at Qingdao High School was brought to a climax.

Everyone's face was filled with smiles.

The score difference was three points, and they had no way to deal with Fōgiya Akatsuki.

Victory is really waving towards them!
"Furuya, if you can perform well and suppress the Yamamori Academy batting line, I can consider letting you pitch to the ninth inning."

After hearing what Director Kataoka said, Akira Fōtani felt like he was given an injection of chicken blood, and invisible flames emerged from behind his body.

Although it was invisible, Zhou Hui, who was standing next to it, still felt a certain warmth.

"Is this... an illusion?"

Zhou Hui didn't know what was going on. A burning sensation like an ant in a frying pan suddenly swept over him.

From the summer tournament to now, Akira Fōgani has never pitched a full game.

This is his first time.

In the summer tournament games, whether it was a five-inning game that ended early or a nine-inning game, he never pitched the entire game.

Whenever he pitched hard or played poorly, Sawamura would come over and replace him.

He himself doesn't know what style Director Kataoka likes.

So when he heard that he had a chance to pitch the entire game, he was extremely excited.

The batsmen behind are talking about Shenzu and Dou, Shenzu Yudou!
In the face of such tempting conditions, it is nothing worth mentioning.

After a simple warm-up, Seidou High School rushed into the field.

"The current score is 6:3, with Seidou High School leading by three points. In the top of the eighth inning, the situation has become clear for Seidou High School, but Seidou High School cannot be happy too soon. The batters behind Yamamori Academy are the two brothers Shenzu. They have caused Seidou High School a lot of trouble. This inning is crucial to who will win."

The commentator also made some explanation about the current situation.

All in all, this round may directly determine the outcome of the game.

If Yamamori College seizes the opportunity, they will have a chance to enter the finals.

On the contrary, Seidou High School entered the finals.

This may very well be the last time the two brothers of Shenzu step into the batter's box in this game, and they play a crucial role.

Before, they had scored hits whether they were at the hands of Tamba or Fūya Akatsuki.

Three at-bats, three hits.

The ability is beyond doubt!

Both brothers are like this.

"Top of the eighth inning, Yamamori Academy is on offense, the fourth batter, the catcher, is Kazuto-san."

"Those who can only use brute force to pitch will not make it to the Koshien finals."

Kamisama and Toto are still very eager for the Koshien finals.

He didn't want to fall here.

"boom!"

Using all his strength, Kouya Aki swung his arm hard, and the little white ball went straight into the top of the strike zone.

The pitcher's mound around Akira Fōtani's pitch was covered with a circle of sand.

The explosive pitch did not scare Kamatsu and Tou, but instead made them excited.

"Qiang!"

Seizing the opportunity, Shenzu and Dou attacked directly.

Timing determines success or failure!

The ball was not picked up, but after the first bounce, it went straight through the second base guarded by Kuramochi and Haruichi and flew in front of center fielder Jun Isashiki.

Isashiki Jun didn't hit a hit just now and was still angry. Now the position where this ball is coming from and the timing of Kamizuki and Dou's base running are the best opportunities for him to vent his anger!
Isashiki Jun picked up the baseball and swung his arm as he looked at Kamizaki Wado who was five meters away from first base.

An ordinary center fielder might just let him go and get on base, but Isashiki Jun is not ordinary.

What kind of person is he?

I'm afraid no one knows this better than Qingdao High School.

When he gets angry, he is not a human being at all, but rather like a wild beast!
Although everyone likes to call him Golden Retriever.

"Fuck you! Get out there!"

He swung his arm and passed the ball in a wide range, and the white ball flew back and forth like a laser.

Looking at the baseball coming at the speed of light, Yuki did not panic, but continued to adjust the position of his glove.

"Snapped!"

"Safety on base!"

But it was still a step too late, allowing him to reach base.

"Oh shit!"

Isajiki Jun couldn't help but swear.

"so close."

After seeing Isajiki Jun's amazing arm strength, Kamisaki Kazuto also touched his chest.

Fortunately, he didn't succeed just now, otherwise I would have become the background board of the famous scene in Koshien.

No one out, first base occupied.

Before the next batter from Yamamori Academy stepped into the batter's box, coach Suda stopped him and whispered something.

"Is it really possible?"

"Are you still eager to hit his ball yourself?"

After the batter entered the batter's box, Miyuki and Fōgaya Akira hadn't noticed anything yet, and Miyuki was still pitching seriously.

"boom!"

"Snapped!"

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

After two consecutive bad shots, Akira Fōgani's unstable ball control problem was directly exposed.

But they also discovered the intentions of Yamamori Academy.

They had no intention of swinging the bat!
Just like everyone else in Mingchuan Academy, they were waiting for Fūya Akatsuki to send them to base.

They are indeed not unknown people because they can control their desire to swing when faced with this kind of ball.

"Bad ball."

"Ball. Ball. Walk."

Although Akira Fōgani's subsequent shots were more explosive than the last, they were all in vain in the end.

He has no intention of swinging the bat at all, so it doesn't matter even if your ball speed reaches 160km/h.

This time, Akira Fōgani lost in terms of ball control.

After walking the pitcher, Akira Fōtani's mentality might have been a little bad.

This is a common occurrence.

"Fifth batter, pitcher, Yuto Kamado."

"Hurry up and adjust yourself. Your mission isn't over yet. Do you really want to be replaced by Sawamura?"

Even if Miyuki has brought out Sawamura to stimulate Fūya Akira, his ball control may end there, and he will still look like a dog no matter what.

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

"Bad ball."

"Ball. Ball. Walk."

Including this time, only the first pitch was in the strike zone. The rest were bad balls.

Kamisaki Yuto dropped the bat in his hand again and ran to first base.

Despite the speed and power of the ball, Akira Kotani lost the most important thing for a pitcher, which is ball control.

When God opens a door for you, he will also close a window for you.

This sentence is most appropriate for Xiao Fōgiya.

No one out, bases loaded.

This is not a good situation!
