Kapitel 15: Upcoming Competition

Also under the passage of time.

In April, the entire Tokyo area is about to usher in the region's first official competition this year, the Spring Tokyo Metropolitan Highschool Baseball Tournament. Taking the fall competition last year as a reference, a competition of more than 90 high schools selected to participate, because of the link between the Kanto competition, the content of this competition is not high. Relatively speaking, as a frontline before the summer competition, it is often used by major high schools as a training competition before the summer to run in new teams and hone the new players, etc.

Therefore, in the spring competition, it is also a competition where the major giants often rollover.

It can be said that it is one of the characteristics of the Spring Competition.

It is also a fun place for the audience to watch the game.

"Spring contest hm..."

With the advent of the competition, the training of the baseball club of Seidou High School has also been clearly differentiated. The A-ground is basically given to the first-string players for training. At present, there are only senpais in the 2nd and 3rd-years on the team. as the team's ace pitcher, the 3rd-year, Inoue Koji-senpai, and the 2nd-year, No. 10

Tanba Kouichirou-senpai.

It is the center of team training at this stage.

In the past few years, Seidou High School's line-ups have always been at the top level in the country. In the entire Kanto region, there is no team that has played practice games with Seidou High School. It can reach the level of suppressing Seidou High School's line-up.

The offense is strong, but Seidou High School has a fatal deficiency in defense, that is, there is no stable ace pitcher, whether it is the 3rd-year Inoue-senpai or the 2nd-year Tanba-senpai, the former has a problem in strength. The latter in mentality.

In the middle and second half of the game, the pitcher's self-explosion often leads to losing the game. Last year's summer game, last year's fall game, and earlier games, such an experience has really been in the past few years. It is everywhere. A pitcher who can really be called an ace is the fatal pain of Seidou High School, and it is also the reason why Seidou High School repeatedly stops in the top 8 or top 4 in all the competitions.

Because as long as one encounters the real powerhouses in the Tokyo area, such as

Inashiro Industrial, Ichidaisan High School, and Teitou High School, then the loopholes in the defense of Seidou High School will be infinitely magnified. Seidou's line-up is no joke.

"Perseverance, Kouichirou, you bastard brat has no perseverance in the pitching, show me perseverance, your soul!!!!"

"Yes... Azuma-senpai."

"Brat, did you not eat enough? Speak louder to me, just because of your spirit, don't play and embarrass our team!!!"

On the strike zone, Azuma-senpai was completely furious, shouting at Tanba-senpai on the pitcher mound was in stark contrast, a sweaty appearance.

"Yes!!!"

Tanba-senpai mustered all his strength and responded loudly.

"Come on, throw a few more pitches, if it doesn't work, just get off the mound for me, and someone who can come up, understand!?"

"Yes, Azuma-senpai!!!"

Common scene.

As the real core of the team at the moment, Azuma-senpai basically dominates the training rhythm on the training ground, especially for the pitchers on the team, Azuma-senpai likes to train them, not to mention 2nd-years Tanba-senpai, even Inoue-senpai of the same year, throws a pitch that makes Azuma-senpai very dissatisfied, Azuma-senpai will shout out unceremoniously.

As a 4th batter and captain, Azuma-senpai believes that this is his duty.

"whoosh"

"Swish"

"Pong!!!"

"More, again, more strength, Kouichirou!!!"

"Yes, Azuma-senpai!!"

The senpais in the 2nd and 3rd-years have long been used to the behavior of Azuma-senpai on the court.

"Jun, shout for me when you strike, you have to be stronger, you must be stronger, do you understand!?"

"Yes! Azuma-senpai!!"

It is not lost to the loud voice of the Azuma-senpai at all.

As the famous silky dog beard in the manga, Isashiki-senpai is very active on the court, but he will never lose to Azuma-senpai, but in this way, for the first-year freshmen, such a scene for them to see some were stunned.

Especially the more introverted players on the team, such as Kawakami Norifumi, are already trembling a little.

(The senpais are so scary.)

This is the only feeling Kawakami Norifumi currently has.

There is a game atmosphere on the court, and the bullpen has the attitude of the bullpen.

"haaa!!!"

"Snapped"

"OK, OK, OK, today's state is very good, Shin."

Kazuya threw the ball towards him with a backhand and said with a faint smile.

"Yes, it's alright. Next, let's try the cutter."

He catch his hat on the dirt, and said in a deep voice, as the only two freshmen allowed to play, the envy of those freshmen who have been on the team for more than a week still doing endurance training.

Only He can pitch, and only Kazuya is allowed to wear the catcher's protective gear to catch. Such a gap really makes those freshmen of the same class envious and hateful.

"no problem."

Kazuya squatted down to catch again and got ready.

He quickly turn his right arm, and the roaring arm suddenly swung down. At this moment, a bright white light jumped out of his hand, heading towards Kazuya not far away. The ball suddenly turns in the direction of the left batter's chest.

Gorgeous refraction trajectory, terrifying breaking speed.

"Boom!!"

The dull roaring sound caused the eyebrows of the 3rd-year Inoue-senpai who was pitching beside him to tremble a few times.

Although it is not the first time that Inoue-senpai see his pitch.

However, his cutter breaking and his fastball power still made Inoue-senpai feel a little astonished.

(Is this guy really a 1st-year???)

This is Inoue Koji's only inner thought about him.

"Inoue-senpai, next one, a fastball on the low outside corner"

Chris-senpai, who was also squatting in the bullpen, said softly to Inoue-senpai, who was not far away, with a gentle expression.

"Yes, I understand."

Inoue-senpai nodded lightly, the figure that suddenly moved.

Suddenly his arms turn.

"whoosh"

"Snapped"

The fastball does not have an exaggerated noise. In terms of the power and tail strength of the fastball, Inoue-senpai is undoubtedly inferior to Him. The speed is only between 135KM/H and 140KM/H, but in control, Inoue-senpai is better.
