Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 32 Horizontal Strike

"Did you hit that long shot just now?"

Seeing Chris talking, the second and third grade students who were gathered here also left tactfully.

It’s true that they came here to admire Zhou Hui, but they were afraid that Chris would have wild thoughts.

Given the way Chris thinks, it's very possible that he thinks they are being lazy.

If they wanted to explain at that time, they could not clear themselves even if they jumped into the Yellow River.

"Hey, hey, hey, Master is so powerful. Everyone disappeared as soon as he came."

Chris didn't say anything, his eyes were fixed on Zhou Hui.

For some reason, Zhou Hui felt uncomfortable after seeing this look.

A very uncomfortable feeling.

This look is more like a stare, a question.

And from the scene where all the onlookers dispersed, Zhou Hui could also see what kind of role Chris played in Qingdao High School.

Because Kenta Maemao was also among the crowd just now!
Judging from the current strength of the entire second army, apart from the three freshmen, Kenta Maeyama, Takashi Aso and Naomichi Seki are the three people who are closest to the first army.

The captain of the second army is still Kenta Maemura.

Logically speaking, there should be no one in the Second Army that he is afraid of.

But the new big brother Sawamura in front of him seemed to give him a great sense of oppression.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

When Zhou Hui replied, he still acted very cool, without any expression on his face.

"Xiao Huihui, stop having a stern face and speak with passion! Come on! Learn how to smile like me!"

Sawamura is such a funny guy, it seems like his energy will never run out.

I really don't know how he and Chris get along.

A poker face and a funny guy.

"Sawamura."

"To!"

"You're not that proficient at the inside corner kick yet, go practice it on your own first, I'll check it out later!"

"Yes!"

Now Sawamura is like a "machine", obeying Chris's orders.

Zhou Hui was also stunned when he saw how obedient Sawamura was.

Although Sawamura is not a troublemaker, ordinary people cannot suppress him.

This is a fact.

Although he looks heartless, Sawamura has a very stubborn temper.

It's only been a few days since I paid attention to him, but he's already been able to suppress his temper.

This made Zhou Hui dumbfounded.

He had some impression of the senior student in front of him, but he didn't expect that he had such ability.

"Oh my, has Chris already communicated with Zhou Hui?"

Minister Ota strolled to the training ground with his hands in his pockets, speaking calmly.

Although he is the captain of the baseball team, he is usually only busy with work during the enrollment period and is very free at other times.

His main job is to prepare the bus when Qingdao High School plays with the team.

After that, I was responsible for organizing the bats, jerseys, shoes, training supplies, etc.

It’s actually similar to logistics work.

But I am only responsible for tidying up, not cleaning.

Otherwise, such a rough man would not be able to do such delicate work.

Supervisor Kataoka also looked over when he heard what Minister Ota said.

Just now, he had been controlling Kenta Maehara's attack, and when he discovered the problem, he was about to correct it.

"It really is."

Director Kataoka pushed up his glasses and smiled, a rare moment.

"It's great that Chris is willing to train first-year students. But Chris's striking ability should not be as good as Zhou Hui's." Minister Ota pointed out the problem in one sentence.

Although Chris was highly valued by Seidou High School in his freshman year and became the only choice for the team's starting catcher, he also became the first catcher of Seidou High School in the competition that year.

In that class, Chris was the only outstanding player in Qingdao High School.

This is true both at the catcher level and at the hitting level.

Chris can be said to be the No. 1 hitter at the time.

But that's just comparing with my former classmates.

As of now, the answer to who is stronger and who is weaker is not certain.

Let’s not talk about whether Chris’ striking ability can return to its previous state after returning from a serious injury.

Even if he could, his batting ability at that time could not be compared with the current center batting line of Qingdao High School.

This year, the center batting line of Qingdao High School is all made up of third-year students, which means they are in the same batch as Chris.

Isajiki Jun, Yuuki, Masuko Toru.

None of the three of them could compare to Chris at the beginning.

But if you pick any one of them now, none of them can compare to Chris at that time.

Although this comparison method is very shameless, it is a helpless move.

No one knows to what level Chris's striking ability has recovered now.

Maybe it's not as good as before.

Various speculations indicate that if Chris really has the opportunity to return to Qingdao High School's first team, his striking ability will not be as dazzling as before.

The only reason that could make him come back might be his basketball IQ!
Zhou Hui's striking ability is top-notch and can be seen with the naked eye.

Chris's striking ability is definitely not as good as his.

Zhou Hui was born to strike back.

It may be a bit unreasonable to let Chris teach Zhou Hui how to hit.

"Chris's striking ability is not as good as Zhou Hui's, but you have to know that Chris's brain is not for nothing."

Minister Ota then suddenly realized.

That's it!

Brains! Experience! Basketball IQ!

In all these, Chris is superior to Zhou Hui.

Zhou Hui has good athletic ability, but in terms of intelligence, he is indeed several levels lower than Chris.

What's more, Chris has been playing basketball for longer than Zhou Hui, so it's nothing new to give him some experience.

"What? Say it again?"

Zhou Hui couldn't believe his ears.

"Would you like to try a horizontal strike?"

Horizontal strike?
This is also a kind of attack, but Zhou Hui does not use it often during the game.

If it is not a particularly high red ball, Zhou Hui will not choose to use a horizontal playing style.

Usually he uses the scooping style.

The name "Little Prince of Laoji" is not for nothing.

"I haven't tried it, and I don't want to try it. I feel like my current striking is good, and there's no need to change it."

Zhou Hui rejected Chris outright.

Chris was in no hurry either.

Zhou Hui is a talented player, so it is understandable that he has a bad temper.

He just has the ability and qualifications to have a bad temper.

"Your scooping style does allow you to hit a few good long hits, and with your extraordinary strength and excellent dynamic vision, you can even hit a home run. But have you ever thought that if you don't scoop the ball out and give the outfielder enough opportunities to run, this ball will not be a high fly ball that is easy to handle?"
