Bab 63: Shoto VS Hokuto (9)

Bottom of the fourth inning. Shun climbed the dugout steps, gripping his bat, his face showing signs of being shaken.

"I can't give up here!" - He said to himself, a flicker of determination shining in his eyes. The boy stepped into the left batter's box and looked at Kohei on the mound, with fire in his eyes.

"Huh? Still haven't given up? Hahaha, alright then, I'll finish destroying you!" - Sugawara was surprised by Shun's attitude given the current state of the game. Part of him admired the will to fight until the end, no matter what.

Well, the main reason was that the white-haired maniac found it more fun to destroy players who kept trying. Once they gave up, the fun was over.

Sugawara called for a fastball to the upper inside corner of the zone. The first pitch came.

WOOSH

DING

"Foul!"
