v2 Chapter 16： : Spirit of the bat

In the second half of the fifth inning, the city's third-highest attack.

Two strikes in a row solved Kuramochi and Minato, who were very strong at Qingdao High School.

At this moment, the aura of the city's third high school soared to its peak.

Originally facing Qingdao High School, the biggest pressure on the opponents came from Qingdao High School's pitching team, and it was difficult for them to score points from Qingdao High School's pitchers.

In this situation, who is the most stressed? Whose position is the most worrying?

On the surface, it looks like a hitter, but on the contrary, the pressure on the pitcher is the greatest.

You can't lose points, once you lose your points, you can't get them back.

At the same time, there is a lot of pressure on the batter. Against an opponent like Qingdao High School, they would not have a great chance of scoring points. If there is no reliable pitcher at this time, then what is the point of them trying to score points?

City Junior High School was under such terrifying pressure before, and played against Qingdao High School under such high pressure.

It's no wonder that after losing three points at the beginning, the vast majority of players in the city's junior high and third high think that there is no hope.

This kind of opening mode is like when playing military chess, people kill the commander with a bomb at the beginning. When playing chess, people eat a rook from the very beginning...

This sense of despair is about the same.

At this time, the ace pitcher of the third high school in the city, Tianjiuguangsheng suddenly emerged.

He relied on his excellent strength to help the team stabilize the situation. Did not let Qingdao High School continue to expand the score.

At this time, the players of the third and third high schools in the city seemed to be living in a desperate situation. Although they still don't think they have any hope of reversal, they have the motivation to fight.

His own ace pitcher has performed so well, as his teammate, how can he give up easily?

With such an unshakable belief, and with the thought of tearing a piece of flesh from the giant of Qingdao High School no matter what, City University Third High School started their fifth round of offense.

The first to stand on the strike zone was the fourth player of the third high school in the city, Hoshida Mamoru.

After standing on the strike zone, his whole person was like a samurai who was using the sword-drawing technique.

On the surface, there is nothing special about it, but it feels extremely dangerous. It seemed that once he made a move, it would immediately be a thunderclap.

"This guy is not an ordinary person, and he must be treated with caution!"

Miyuki Kazuya thought to himself.

It's okay to use sharp change **** against Mamoru Hoshida, but considering Sawamura Eijun's pitching rhythm, it's best to use quirk **** to deal with him at this time.

Looking up at the three empty bases, Miyuki also decisively gave Sawamura Eijun a signal to change the quirk ball.

No one has hit base yet, even if the opponent has a chance to throw the ball out, it doesn't matter.

Miyuki also has full confidence in Sawamura Eijun's strength.

"The rhythm must be fast when pitching, and you must not give the opponent any chance to breathe."

Although Miyuki made the judgment from his heart that even if Mamoru Hoshida scored a hit, it didn't matter, but the secret code he gave Sawamura Eijun did not reveal any meaning in this regard. Instead, Sawamura Eijun's fierceness was constantly stimulated, making him throw the quirk ball more fiercely.

Eijun Sawamura, who was on the pitcher's mound, nodded slightly, then decisively threw the baseball out of his hand.

For Eijun Sawamura, there is never the best pitch, only the most suitable pitch.

At least until the development of the Level 4 Variation Ball.

He is not a monster like Xiao Gu Xiao, who can crush everything by relying on the speed of the ball. Essentially, Eijun Sawamura is a pitcher who relies on fielding to get outs.

"Whoosh!"

The small white ball is like a laser beam, which travels through the space of 18 meters in the blink of an eye.

coming!

In the face of the flying baseball, Hoshida on the strike zone did not hesitate. Very decisively, he swung the bat out of his hand.

He has no intention of waiting for the ball at all. No matter what kind of ball is flying over, he will play as long as the ball enters the strike zone.

coming!

The bat in his hand was swung, and there was a huge cracking sound. Seeing that the bat was about to blow the ball away, the white ball suddenly changed.

It slid several centimeters toward the outer corner.

Slider?

Looking at the baseball sliding outwards, Hoshida Mamoru's eyes burst into an amazing light.

"Ping!"

After the white ball was hit, it spun out of bounds.

During this process, in the rest area of ​​Qingdao High School, all the substitute players were so nervous that they forgot to breathe.

Although they had full confidence in Sawamura Eijun before. But with such a scene in front of them, they couldn't help but worry.

So weird!

It's so disturbing.

Sawamura Eijun's superb pitching was easily swept away.

Know that it's a quirk ball change, not a normal quirk ball.

On the other side, in the rest area of ​​the city's third high school, those guys weren't much better.

"Does the baseball visibly shake before it enters the hand?"

"It shook at least five centimeters!"

When this matter was mentioned, the little friends of the City Junior High Baseball Club looked at each other in dismay.

To be honest, they were a little bit unacceptable.

What the **** does this happen?

Director Tahara's gaze towards Pitcher Hill was also full of fear.

As the supervisor of a wealthy family, in the process of guiding the city's junior high school, whether it is from his hands or the talented players they have played against.

Tahara has seen many.

Great players can lead a team. A great pitcher can even decide the life and death of a team...

He thought he was well-informed enough.

But after seeing Sawamura Eijun's pitching, he still felt very incredible.

It was the first time he had seen such a monster.

He took a deep look at the direction of the rest area of ​​Qingdao High School. Looking at the tall figure, now wearing sunglasses, I couldn't see the expression on his face.

Kataoka-san, I really envy you.

With super geniuses like Sawamura Eijun under his command, it is no wonder that Qingdo High School was able to dominate Koshien last summer and this spring in a row.

The battle on the field continues.

Almost everyone was immersed in the sharpness of Sawamura's quirk ball, only Mamoru Hoshida on the strike zone had a different spark in his mind.

At this time, he has forgotten the victory or defeat of the team, the tens of thousands of spectators around him, and the responsibilities that he is carrying now...

Only Sawamura Eijun on the pitcher mound was in sight.

What I recalled in my mind was the shock when he just entered the third year of the city's junior high school.

At that time, the seniors in the third grade were too far away from him, so he didn't have much contact with him. The ones who have the most contact with them are the hard-working sophomores.

Big front!

That is, one of the top ten people who were taken away in the draft before.

The big front who has just been in the second grade already has a strong power. Became the team's fifth bat, and the striking strength was recognized by the entire team.

But even so, Omae-senpai is still the last one to practice swinging.

As a junior, Mamoru Hoshida has no way to persevere every time he practice swings to 500 times.

Of course, it is not impossible to continue to swing the bat. What's the point of mechanically waving your arms when you're just unconscious?

In the face of the big former senior with a good personality, Hoshida Mori once raised such a question.

At that time, the scene of Daimae's answer to Hoshida Shou reverberated in Hoshida Shou's mind, making him unforgettable for a long time.

"Look at the four big characters written on the wall!"

On the wall of the indoor practice ground of the city's third high school, there are four big characters.

Day swing!

"This is the tradition of our city junior high school. Sometimes I am often confused. When my consciousness is blurred, I continue to practice swinging. Is there any meaning? But whether it is meaningful or meaningless, so many generations of city junior high school players. They have persevered! Not to mention, every generation of the city's third-highest and fourth-ranked players have all achieved this. I think it must have its meaning..."

Since then, Hoshida Mori also began to insist on swinging a thousand times a day.

It was also from that time that Mamorai Hoshida heard the legend about baseball spirits from the seniors.

It is said that a thousand times a day is returned, and if you can persist for a year, the baseball spirit will naturally be possessed when you swing the bat.

So far, Hoshida has persisted for 541 days.

Although he has never felt the spirit of baseball, he believes that the soul of the city's third high school must be condensed in his swing.

The human brain can flash thousands of thoughts in an instant, but the real world may only be a few tenths of a second later.

After receiving the return pass from Miyuki Kazuya, Sawamura Eijun didn't stop at all, and threw the baseball in his hand at a particularly fast pace.

"So fast!"

Not to mention Mamoru Hoshida, who was standing on the strike zone, even the spectators watching on the side were extremely surprised.

This pitching rhythm obviously exceeded everyone's previous expectations It's too fast! It's quick to feel unprepared.

Hoshida Shou, who was on the strike zone, didn't feel anything.

He had swung too much mechanically before, and his body had already formed inertia. When Sawamura threw the ball, his body naturally responded accordingly.

At this moment, Mamoru Hoshida's physical actions surpassed the thinking of his brain.

Move faster than his brain.

The moment Sawamura Eijun on the pitcher's mound shot the ball, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

Inexplicably, there was an ominous premonition in his heart. This tension and excitement didn't belong to any of his high school or middle school years.

It comes from the memory of the past life.

That kind of experience playing against top hitters in the big leagues.

Raising his head, Sawamura glanced at Mamoru Hoshida on the strike zone in shock.

This guy!

"Ping!"

As if after thousands of drills, the bat hits the white ball with precision.

This time Hoshida Mamoru was the same as before, and he was not able to hit the center of the ball accurately, but he relied on his powerful strength and inertia to forcefully swept the baseball out.

Sawamura on the pitcher mound flashed deep fear in his eyes.

Before, he underestimated the opponent in front of him, and his threat level was definitely not below Thunder City.

After the small white ball was hit, it flew directly over the head of the second baseman, Haruichi Kominato.

Then the baseball crossed the field and into center field.

Like a gust of wind, Wang Xi rushed to the landing spot of the baseball and tried to catch the ball with his gloves.

Where can I get it?

After a dozen centimeters, the baseball landed on the side of the glove and flew out.
