Diamond Ace's Passionate Swing

At that moment, Yabe and Carlos walked over.

"Isn't this Miyuki?"

Yabe spoke first, his tone carrying a hint of provocation.

Carlos also walked over, a playful look on his face.

"What, you haven't gone back yet?"

Yabe's eyes flickered with curiosity.

"Are they spying on the enemy from the stands?"

"Did you find anything?"

Miyuki's lips curled slightly upward, his eyes filled with confidence.

"After seeing such a perfect pitch, does it even matter what you discover?"

A familiar voice came through, carrying a hint of smugness and arrogance.

"Oh my, I got a compliment from Kazuya."

Narumi walked over with a smug smile on his face.

Miyuki was thinking to himself: Hurry up, you guys.

I don't want to say too much to my opponent whom I'll be facing the day after tomorrow.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time we've all gotten together since then, isn't it?"

Carlos looked at Miyuki and Narumiya Mei and sighed.

Yabe nodded.

"It seems so."

A complex emotion flashed in Narumiya Mei's eyes, but his tone remained arrogant.

"As a result, only you, Kazuya, declined Inami's invitation."

"However, even without you, we still have our strongest lineup this year!"

"We will never give you our tickets to Koshien!"

"You should really regret not joining us!"

Miyuki's eyes were calm, but a mocking smile played at the corners of his lips.

"Ten years from now... twenty years from now... I'll just keep regretting it."

Lin Xiao came out of the restroom at that moment and overheard their conversation.

Lin Xiao looked at the people from Daocheng Industry, his gaze settling on Cheng Gongming.

"Isn't this Daocheng Industry's trump card?"

Lin Xiao's voice wasn't loud, but it reached the ears of everyone present clearly.

"Naraka Mei-senpai."

Lin Xiao's tone carried a hint of contempt and provocation.

"Let's chat here!"

"If it's because you're afraid of failure, I can understand you sticking together, Narumiya-senpai."

Lin Xiao's words were like sharp knives, piercing straight into Cheng Gongming's heart.

"You brat, what did you say?!"

Narumiya Mei's smile vanished instantly, replaced by anger.

"It would be very embarrassing if we didn't make it to Koshien this year."

Lin Xiao's eyes were sharp, and he showed no sign of backing down.

"I hope you don't have the same problem of excessive spending as last year."

Narumiya Mei's childish temper was instantly ignited, and she was furious.

"This year, I'll shut you out at home plate just like last year!"

Lin Xiao's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes sparkled with excitement.

"Let's wait and see!"

Narumiya snorted angrily, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

"Then, see you on the field!"

Miyuki looked at Narumiya Mei, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

Four years have passed since we met that summer.

I am here today, perhaps it was destined from that day.

And also, fighting alongside these people against those guys…

They must all be...

The atmosphere in the Seido rest room was somber.

Izashiki watched the video, his voice low.

"As a result, he only threw four changeup pitches in that game."

Chris, the senior colleague, picked up the conversation, speaking calmly and professionally.

"Three forkballs, seven sliders."

"Ultimately, it's still a ball configuration primarily based on straight shots."

Isashiki nodded and continued his analysis.

"While Sakurazawa's batting lineup is weak, we only threw that much because we were watching the game."

Chris added.

"A diagonal straight ball thrown to the right batter's chest."

"He really knows how to throw this kind of ball."

Kominato Haruichi looked at Sawamura and asked softly.

"What's wrong, Rong Chun?"

Sawamura looked bewildered and scratched his head.

"Diagonal straight ball... I feel like I've heard that term somewhere before."

Miyuki's lips twitched slightly, and he said helplessly.

"Hey, you pitched during today's game too, right?"

Sawamura was even more confused and pointed at himself.

"Did I vote too?"

Lin Xiao's voice rang out.

"The last pitch he threw to Maki in the bottom of the sixth inning."

Sawamura suddenly realized and exclaimed in surprise.

"That is..."

Lin Xiao said with certainty.

"Aiming diagonally straight at the right-hand batter's chest..."

"The unique trajectory of a left-handed pitcher..."

"That is, a diagonal straight shot."

Sawamura's mouth dropped open in shock.

"Wow!"

Miyuki rubbed his forehead and sighed helplessly.

"You didn't just throw it out without thinking about anything, did you?"

Sawamura hurriedly waved his hand and stammered an explanation.

"How...how is this possible?"

"A straight shot in focus has always been my winning formula..."

Kominato corrected him.

"It's a diagonal straight shot."

Sawamura scratched his head and mumbled something indistinctly.

"Yes, that's it, the 'keratin' ball."

Kominato Haruichi's lips twitched, and he shook his head helplessly.

"No, that's not it..."

Lin Xiao interrupted Zecun's ramblings directly.

"Ignore him, that idiot."

Sawamura immediately bristled and roared at Lin Xiao.

"That wretched Lin Xiao!"

Yuxing was helpless.

"However, that wasn't a typical diagonal straight shot either."

"But even if I explain it to him now, he probably won't understand..."

Kuramochi sneered.

"How stupid are you? You've really made things difficult for Chris."

Chris smiled helplessly.

"yes."

Sawamura looked at Chris with a pitiful expression, his eyes brimming with tears.

"Master...Master..."

Lin Xiao burst into laughter.

"Hahaha."

Lin Xiao silently recited the command and brought up the system panel.

Host: Lin Xiao

Height: 190

Defense positions: pitcher, outfielder

Dominant hand: Right hand

Stamina: S

Ball types: Fastball (S), Quickfinger (B), Carter's (B), Jetball (B)

Offensive: Short bat (S), Outfield bunt (B), Home run (C)

Ball control: B

After winning several matches, I got two good items from the blind box check-in.

Outfield long hits and home runs have been developed.

Although home runs aren't high-level, there's still a small chance they can go out of bounds.

This increases the probability of winning against Daocheng Industry.

Ryosuke Kominato looked at Yuki, his tone filled with anticipation.

"So, what does the gentleman who was the only one to hit Narimiya's pitch into double last year think?"

All eyes were on Yuuki.

Yuki's eyes were firm, and his tone was calm.

"My team has a first and second batter who can disrupt the opponent's rhythm."

"They also have players who can adapt to changing circumstances when hitting."

"Most importantly, everyone knows how to swing the bat with all their might."

"Plus the improved batting lineup this year."

Yuki glanced at Lin Xiao, Kominato, and Furuya, his gaze filled with trust.

"We are now confident that we can defeat Narimiya."

"Let's fight to the very end in our own style!"

The crowd responded in unison, their voices loud and clear, their momentum unstoppable.

"good!"

The female managers were also caught up in the atmosphere and shouted excitedly.

"Wow! The atmosphere changed in an instant!"

"As expected of the captain!"

"Yuki-kun..."

Let's do our best to cheer them on!
