Chereads / Ace of Diamond: Return of the Pitcher / Chapter 201 - Chapter 1: Maimon High School

Chapter 201 - Chapter 1: Maimon High School

The members in charge of the investigation are still very serious about collecting information. In their intelligence, not only the tactical information about the opponent but even the personal information of the opponent's players was carefully investigated.

After hearing this, Sawamura gave these serious and responsible seniors a thumbs up.

But that's it!

Maimon is a public school, and it is impossible for such a school to train for too long Normally. The gap between them and Seidou is simply vast.

Of course, it's not without surprises. In public schools and academies, it is not that there are not good teams.

But judging from the game video, the overall level of Maimon High School is not very high.

The only thing worthy of praise is probably their fielding.

'Hmm, it's rather solid.'

It's enough to catch up with the substitutes of Seidou's Second String!

At this level, even if you give Narumiya to them, it will be for nothing.

In the current Seidou, there is Sawamura on the pitcher mound.

Ordinary teams like Maimon can be ignored in total. The batters just need to concentrate on studying how to attack the opponent's pitcher.

Even the leaders, Kataoka, Ochiai, Takashima, and Ota don't think their opponents will bring much trouble to Seidou.

"No matter who the opponent is, we must go all out!"

Kataoka finally gave only such a sentence.

Otherwise, what else should he say?

The tactics also need the opponent to have enough weight. Against an opponent like Maimon, Seidou can win with any set of tactics, and there is no need to limit any tactics.

"Tomorrow's starter is Sawamura, catcher Chris. Other positions remain the same…"

After the announcement of the starting list, Kataoka ended the meeting.

Facing the competition, Seidou's Players didn't even feel nervous.

They are so confident!

Confidence that you will definitely win.

Thinking about the hardships and sweat they had suffered before if they lost to an opponent like Maimon. Then they should choke on water and drown themselves to death!

Furuya got instructions from Kataoka, and if the opportunity was right, he would let Furuya play.

That means if the victory can be sealed at the beginning, he will let Furuya come on the field and feel the atmosphere of the summer Tournament.

It is evident that Kataoka attaches high expectations to Furuya.

Of course, this confidence does not mean that the players of Seidou are careless.

As Kataoka said, even if they are an easy opponent, they will not show mercy to anyone.

Every time they win, their baseball career in high school will last for a while more.

Failure means the end.

The Players of Seidou High School will never allow such a thing to happen.

On the other hand, the same goes for the players at Maimon High School.

The night of the game, all the players didn't rest.

Although Maimon has its own baseball field, there is no extravagant night lighting equipment like Seidou in the baseball field.

Their players gather in the hallway below the teaching building, practicing their swing and passing.

All of them had serious expressions on their faces.

When the battle table result just came out, the players in Maimon High School were all stupefied.

They also dreamed of Koshien and even made incredible sacrifices for Koshien.

But their road is not optimistic.

In the second round, they have to face the Powerhouse, Seidou High School.

In the quarter-finals, it is no surprise that they will encounter another top-level Giant Ichidaisan High School.

If the final is normal, it is Inashiro Industrial High School!

The three giants in West Tokyo are like three mountains, pressing on their hearts. They must break through all of them to have a chance to enter Koshien.

It is a nightmare!

Faced with such a nightmare, under the supervision of Chiba Junichi, the Maimon players, who trained hard, accepted the reality.

No matter what they face in front of them, they have to face it calmly.

For the ideal holy place in their heart, whether it is Seidou, Sankou, or Inashiro.

They will fight to the end!

in front of the classroom, with slippers on his feet, Chiba Junichi, who looked disheveled, held a bat in his hand and carried it on his shoulders, asking his assistant beside him.

"Did those guys from Seidou come to spy on our information today?"

His assistant is the team-managing teacher assigned to him by the school, that is, the teacher who manages the baseball team affairs.

"Yes, not only that, but they also used cameras to record."

Hearing this news, Chiba Junichi was not depressed, but extremely excited.

"Okay, very good! Seidou, who watched the video of the game, must look down on us. I'm looking forward to seeing Seidou's dumbfounded faces."

The leading teacher was hesitant.

"Is it going to be revealed so soon?"

If Maimon is aiming at Koshien, it must pass through the three Giants of West Tokyo.

Although Maimon also has countermeasures, but if it is exposed so early, the effect of the surprise attack will be lacking.

At that time, what will Maimon use to deal with Sankou High School and Inashiro?

"There is no other way. We have too few cards in our hands. Let's fight Seidou first. Then, with this momentum, let's try our best to rush forward."

On the surface, Chiba Junichi, who seems to be rough, is actually aware of the gap between the two sides.

If Maimon wants to win, the most important thing is to find a way to stop Seidou's attack.

As a Famous School, Seidou must be very eager to gain an advantage.

And if this goal has never been achieved, then Maimon has a chance to win!

Having paid so much, Maimon has long been ready to fight against any Giants in Tokyo.

Whether it is Seidou High School or some other team, there is nothing for them to be afraid of!

What really needs a headache is what will happen to Maimon High School after the trump card is exposed.

On the day of the game.

Fuchu Civil Stadium.

The cheerleading team of Seidou High School is waiting for the game to start.

Four managers, holding megaphones, stood at the forefront of the line.

On the other hand, the members of the Demon King's Guard and the Brotherhood of Red Hearts were also ready for the competition.

In addition to these exclusive fans, Seidou's alumni, those seniors who graduated from Seidou.

Whenever they have time, they will come here…

The stadium, which was originally small, is now full.

It's just a pity that there is no one here who supports Maimon.

In addition to the fans, there are also reporters, as well as the investigation team of the Sankou High School and Inashiro Industrial High School.

These two Giants also regarded Seidou as the first imaginary enemy.

They will not miss any game of Seidou this summer.

"Starting now is the second round of the West Tokyo preliminaries. The match between Seidou High School and Maimon High School will officially begin!"

Following a sentence from the commentator, the players from both sides lined up on both sides and saluted each other.

"Pleased to play with you!"

"Pleased to play with you!!!"

The starters of Seidou are Sawamura, Chris, Tetsuya, Ryosuke, Masuko, Kuramochi, Sakai, Isashiki, and Shiratsu.
