Chương 221: Showdown (1)

Yuta crouched down before giving the signal for a high fastball, hoping that their opponent would tip it into the air for an easy catch. 

Ken nodded, feeling a sense of anticipation as to how fast his fastball would be now.

He adjusted his cap and let out a deep breath. In the next moment his eyes narrowed as he began his wind up, lifting his left knee high before stepping forward in a single fluid motion.

Daichi held his breath as Ken began his pitch. He had only seen Ken pitch with his left, which lacked power, so he was feeling a little anxious.

However, the dugout looked on with expectation. Since becoming the Ace, Ken had been nothing but consistent, becoming their guardian deity and keeping their scorecard clean.

"Hup!"

Ken subconsciously let out a noise as he put all of his strength into his body and let his arm whip the ball out. He could feel his muscles working diligently, rippling underneath his skin.

'So fast!'
