Diamond Ace: Monster Slayer

Chapter 93 Cool Man

"First batter, third baseman, Hong."

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

Before he even went on the field, the sound of Hong Leishi swinging his bat was heard.

The scene was noisy before, and many audience members did not listen carefully, or could not hear the noise from the audience at all.

As for the sound made by the swing of the bat in Honglei City, a large part of people don't know what it sounds like.

The whole audience was amazed by the silence.

They finally understood why Hong Leishi's swing on the field was so fast and powerful.

These empty swings are the best proof.

There won't be such an effect without practicing swinging the bat 500 times a day!

The sound of Honglei City's swinging bats is like the roar of a sports car engine, which is both ear-piercing and exciting.

"Requesting a timeout."

"pause!"

"Seidou High School chose to take a timeout. I wonder what tactics they have this time. Now their catcher has changed from the first catcher Chris to the second catcher Yuki. There must be some changes in tactics. Yuki and Chris are two completely different catchers. But let's continue to see what the final outcome will be."

"How about it? Do you want to be admitted?"

Miyuki ran up and asked about Fōgiya Xiao.

He now threw this difficult question to Akatsuki Fōgaya.

In the last at-bat against Honglei City, Akira Jōgō just hit a home run.

Pitchers are not creatures with strong mental qualities, and Miyuki is certainly well aware of this.

Pitchers all have "fragile hearts". If they lose a point, it's like their life is in danger. Their performance in subsequent games will decline significantly.

For example, a pitcher can throw 140km and more than three changeups before being scored, but his performance will be greatly reduced after being scored.

It is very likely that the ball speed has reached 130km/h and there will only be one changeup left.

It’s not because of the decline in physical strength after being scored. It’s not that reason at all.

Not all pitchers have this common problem, but many pitchers with poor psychological quality often do so.

But Miyuki had no idea whether Akira Fōgaya was that kind of player.

Although I have teamed up with Akatsuki Fōgaya several times before, that was a long time ago.

After Chris became the first catcher of the first team, Miyuki only had some contact with the pitcher Sawamura.

Or maybe it’s because he pesters Sawamura every day.

With Chris as his master, Sawamura rarely goes to see Miyuki anymore.

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Fūya Akira said with his head lowered.

Even when Fōgō Aki lowered his head, he was still half a head taller than Miyuki. His physical talent was quite terrifying.

Definitely the best physical gift for a pitcher.

"Then just send him in. You can't do anything to him anyway."

"No, Miyuki-senpai! I want to fight him head-on!"

Jōgiya Xiao immediately got angry, he couldn't stand being provoked by others!
This is what Yuki wanted to hear.

He also wanted to let Xiao Jiangu and Honglei City face off head-on.

Let him overcome this difficulty.

Even if you recommend Hong Lei Shi as a free pass, his speed is also a point that needs attention.

Hong Lei Shi and An Ze Xiu are on par with each other in speed.

An Zexiu was the former top batter of Yakushi High School.

Although he was the team's ace pitcher in junior high school, he changed his position after arriving at Pharmacist High School and became a shortstop, and he also developed a good footwork.

I guess this is the only way to describe him as gifted.

"Okay, it's up to you. If necessary, I'll let you take that shot."

Having said that, Miyuki returned to the catcher's box.

"That ball", these three words also shocked Xiao Jiangu.

Is it really coming now?
"kick off!"

"Ahahahahahahaha! Let me hit another home run! Ahahahahahahahaha!"

Hong Leishi laughed particularly wildly, not taking Jiang Gu Xiao seriously at all. "Damn it, how come this guy laughs louder than me."

Sawamura clenched his fists.

Hong Lei Shi and he have very similar personalities. Given Sawamura's personality, he should like this guy very much, but I didn't expect that he is now very repulsive to him.

"Furuya, you have to strike this guy out! You have to strike him out! Use your fastball! If you get tired, use the breathing method I taught you! You can't let him laugh louder than me!"

“Does this also need a comparison?”

Kawakami next to him looked ashamed, wondering why Sawamura had such a damn strong desire to win.

"Whoosh!"

At the first pitch, Akira Jōgō threw a high-speed ball that was close to 155 km/h.

This ball is likely to break Akira Kotani's speed record.

No matter how fast Akihiro Kougu's pitch is, it's only a little over 150km/h. But facing Honglei City again, it seems that his physical potential has been stimulated.

This goal doesn't look that simple.

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

"Qiang!"

Hong Leishi swung his baseball hard and hit it away.

"Foul ball!"

154km!

The speedometer gave the data immediately!
This was a pitch speed that Xiao Jiangu had never thrown before. Unexpectedly, he was hit out by Honglei City the first time it came out.

"Ahahahahahahaha! What a fast ball speed!"

But this time, Akihiro Kougu no longer showed fear or terror.

Instead, he looked serious, and his eyes gradually turned crazy.

After being beaten out, he became more confident.

When Miyuki saw the expression on Fōgaya Akira's face, he knew that his previous provocation seemed to have worked.

"Whoosh!"

The second ball was shot at a speed as fast as a whirlwind.

Although this adjective is not quite appropriate, one can definitely feel a gust of wind gathering above the baseball and heading towards Miyuki's glove.

"Snapped!"

This time, even though Honglei City swung the bat hard, it was to no avail.

The bat had a close contact with the air.

"nice shot!"

Two strikes. Just one more strike and you can strike out!

At this time, Xiao Jiangu was getting more and more excited, and his hand that caught the ball began to tremble.

"Yeah, there's nothing to be afraid of. It's time for them to be afraid of me!"

Fōtani Akihabara became ruthless and held the baseball tightly in his right hand.

"It's time to make them fear me, Akatsuki Fūdani!"

"Whoosh!"

He pitched the ball with great force, and the baseball seemed to have turned into a cannonball, with Miyuki's glove being his target.

From a visual point of view, these three balls shot by Akira Fōgaya seemed to be faster and faster, but it might also be due to Akira Fōgaya's momentum.

"It's so fast! It's so interesting!"

"Snapped!"

Honglei City's swing missed!
Determine the winner!

This time the duel has been decided! Fūya Akira strikes out Honglei City! Revenge!

Although the speed of this ball was only 151km, the momentum made this ball reach a higher level.

"Strike! Batter is out! Three outs! Attack and defense switch!"

After being struck out, Akira Fōtani did not celebrate but ran back silently.

"I just looked so cool, didn't I?"
