July 27th!
West Tokyo, Fuchuu Civil Stadium.
As soon as the players of Seidou got off the bus, they were greeted by a group of enthusiastic alumni and fans.
"Coach Kataoka!"
"Yuuki!"
"Sawamura!"
"Miyuki!"
The door of the bus opened, and Kuramochi rushed down.
It's just a pity that the fans around him didn't cheer for him at all.
They cheered eagerly at the favorite player they supported. When you come down, one person will call a player's name. Here, the ones with the most fans are, of course, Coach Kataoka, the team Captain, the Demon King Sawamura, and the Star player Miyuki.
Fame is sometimes not easy to get, in addition to strength, everyone's presence. charisma, and even looks, are all taken into account for a very large proportion.
"Let's go, partner!"
On the bus, last row.
Sawamura kept his eyes closed.
When the car stopped, Miyuki took the initiative to pull him.
Only then did Sawamura open his eyes.
'Finally, it's time!'
'An exciting game.'
To what extent can he be able to suppress Yakushi?
To be honest, Sawamura himself was not sure.
"It's rare, you've been on the bench for so long, and there are fans out there who support you."
Sawamura's teasing words successfully made Miyuki roll his eyes.
Everyone said he was vicious and black-bellied.
That's because they didn't see Sawamura's teasing and pettiness. Compared with Sawamura, can his character be bad?
The two stepped out of the bus one after the other, immediately causing a lot of people around them to cheer.
'Sure enough, this is an unfair world!' thought the Kuramochi jealous soul.
In the stadium.
When Fujio Mine and Owada Akiko arrived, the entire stadium was almost full.
"So many people?"
Owada Akiko looked around in surprise and sat in an almost full seat.
Fuchuu Civil Stadium is not a small stadium, and its capacity is big.
Although the outfield stands have not been opened yet, the stands beside the first and third bases have thousands of seats.
So many seats are filled to the brim?
Even if there are no tickets, will the number of audiences of this game reach tens of thousands?
"It's a matter of course! Every game that follows will be extremely hot. This is the quarter-finals in West Tokyo."
Her partner Fujio was a veteran, and he had long known that this game would be extremely hot. It's just that he didn't even think that there would be so many people. It is conceivable that the stands in the outfield will inevitably be opened!
After all, there are still more than 20 minutes before the game starts.
On the other side of the stand, Obayashi and Kobayashi appeared with the members from the Brotherhood of Red Heart, carrying drums.
This big drum is the symbol equipment of the Brotherhood of Red Heart. Generally, it is not easy to use, unless Sawamura participates in a particularly grand competition, it is difficult to see.
"Kobayashi-san, do we need to go this far? Shouldn't we save our gears for the finals?"
A Kohai next to him said to Kobayashi.
"Idiot, haven't you read the news? Yakushi High School defeated Sankou High School, the Fall Tournament Champion! And the candidate for the Summer Tournament Champion. Of course, this game must be taken seriously!"
This year's candidate for the Championship in West Tokyo is not Seidou High School, which won the Kanto Championship, nor Inashiro Industrial, which has been extremely strong recently, but the Sankou High School.
Last year, after all the seniors graduated from Sankou High School, they defeated Seidou and Inashiro Industrial in the Fall competition that year. And Qualified for the Spring National Koshien.
In other words, at that time, their strength was the strongest!
However, in the spring, everyone has first-year freshmen joining the team. But the main players are still the second and third graders, that is to say, all the main players have not changed.
Therefore, in the public opinion, the candidate for the championship of West Tokyo is Sankou.
Of course, in the eyes of the real experts, Seidou High School, which has just won the Kanto Championship, is obviously more likely to be the Champion than Sankou High School!
However, the influence of the Kanto Tournament is still far from that of Koshien.
The Sankou High School, which was a candidate for the championship, was defeated, and the one who defeated them was the Yakushi High School, which rose like a hurricane!
Today is the game between Yakushi High School and Seidou High School.
Super Dark Horse vs. Kanto Champion!
"Just thinking about it makes my blood boil!"
Kobayashi said aside.
15 minutes before the start of the game, players from both sides entered the field one after another.
"Yakushi!"
"Seidou!"
"Sawamura!"
"Yuuki!"
As the players entered the arena, there was a burst of Cheers from the stands.
Unlike the teams that Seidou High School had played against before, Yakushi High School actually had quite a few fans.
"After defeating Sankou High School, the reputation of the Yakushi High School has also risen!" Miyuki shook his head and smiled.
"The three Powerhouses in West Tokyo have existed for too long, and the Popcorn Enjoyers have long been looking forward to a showdown that will shake up the situation! And now, Yakushi High School just happened to appear." Sawamura said.
He is no stranger to such an atmosphere. When he was in Nagano Prefecture, Sawamura led Akagi to overthrow the so-called three kings of Nagano. There were also a lot of fans behind them. At first, these people just came to see the fun of Akagi Middle School and said they were the Akagi fan club. Later, as Akagi's level became higher and higher, they also evolved into the current Brotherhood of Red Heart.
What is more enjoyable than watching a Giant being defeated by a smaller opponent?
Everyone finally came to watch a such game, and of course, they didn't want to see that kind of game where the Giants crush the weak chicken team!
At the beginning of the Seidou High School competition, in addition to some die-hard fans, only the school's second-string, and third-string players and cheerleaders came.
Why is that?
Because people don't want to watch games that don't have any excitement.
In the dugout of Yakushi High School.
"Headache is killing me! Too bad, why did I drink too much yesterday? I am still dazed now."
Todoroki Raizou banged his head and said angrily.
Sitting on the bench behind him, a cool high school student said with a smile, "Coach, didn't you say you wouldn't drink yesterday?"
"Who said that?"
Todoroki Raizou was very dissatisfied.
With his decadent middle-aged appearance, how could he look like someone who doesn't know how to drink?
Sanada smiled gently and said nothing.
He knows that his coach didn't drink, so why does he have a headache now?
Sanada Shunpei guessed.
'The Coach probably watched the games videos of Seidou High School last night and saw it until very late.'
This was the hardest game in the journey from Yakushi High School to Koshien!
But no matter how difficult this game was, Sanada Shunpei decided to help his Coach and team get through this difficulty.
