In the evening, meal time,

Sendou As soon as he entered the cafeteria, he saw the guy Sawamura, wearing a Masuko Hotel scarf on his head, pretending to be serving food...

"What are you doing?" Sendou planned to tease him!

"Huh?" Sawamura turned around in excitement when he heard the voice.

"Are you going to give up baseball and become a manager?

Well..., I'm optimistic about you! "He continued to speak without giving the other party a chance to speak.

"..." Sawamura bared his teeth, but he was so fierce that he didn't know how to reply.

"Just in time, help me get some more meat! Save me the trouble, Manager-san!"

"Who is Manager Sang? Sendou! Are you here to quarrel with me?" Sawamura finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Ma! Ma! Calm down and get me some food!"

"Isn't there anyone else? Furuhashi... Sang?" Sawamura glanced at the long queue in front of Furuhashi Fumino...

He turned around and glanced at Sendou awkwardly.

"So, help me fight! I practiced too much today and I'm starving!" Sendou raised an eyebrow at him.

Sawamura can only help him pick up food...

Not long after it was Senior Chris's turn, Sawamura filled a large plate for him, especially that bowl of rice, which was equivalent to several other people's bowls. It can only be said that Sawamura is too good at piling up a mountain of rice, and it doesn't even fall down.

"What are you imitating?" Senior Chris's question was also extremely funny.

The result is that Senior Chris's tsundere and cuteness are displayed in front of Sendou, which makes Sendou feel that these two people are the most suitable partners.

The next day, Sendou was also extremely happy. Sawamura's attitude changed 180 degrees, which was a feast for the eyes of Sendou, who deliberately mixed with Sawamura.

In the morning, I bowed respectfully and said hello. When Senior Chris went to the toilet, I held a lot of toilet paper to block the door. After school, I ran to the corridor of the third grade to kneel down and say thank you for your hard work!

Even more clingy than Miyuki, Sendou is very curious about how he knows the whereabouts of Chris.

At night, I even told Sendou that I would ambush him in the bathhouse.

Although they all appear in anime, the actual experience and what you see on the screen are completely different.

What really surprised Sendou was Senior Chris's tsundere attribute.

It's great that such a gentle senior is actually a tsundere!

Sendou and were also excited to watch this event.

And Sawamura has also awakened an incredible attribute, which is the habit of showing off knowledge that was common in the later period. Whether it was what his seniors told him or what he read in various strange books, he always liked to show off, regardless of whether it was related to the current topic.

After Kanto Tournament ended, the practice of Seidou also started to get on the right track, and it should be time to officially start preparing for Summer Tournament.

More and more reporters came here because of Kanto Tournament, but the one that got the most attention was Furuya Satoru.

After all, Seidou's pitching staff has always had problems, and the emergence of Furuya Satoru allowed these people to see the future of Seidou.

What makes Sendou happy is that Sawamura finally wants to use his brain to play baseball, although his brain... is of no use in a short time.

But that's a good sign, isn't it?

However, due to Sawamura's seriousness, Sendou has been troubled recently. Sawamura comes to ask him when he has something to do, and comes to him to show off some discoveries. It is really annoying.

I didn't expect that Sawamura's annoying level would evolve to such an extent after meeting Chris. I can only say that fortunately there is Archangel Senior Chris to share the firepower.

And Sendou can see that Senior Chris's eyes have begun to regain their sparkle recently.

Senior Chris, who regained his energy, began to take the initiative to communicate with Sawamura.

Even if he is a tsundere?

Just like today, I saw Sawamura and Chris stuck together early in the morning. Senior Chris was sitting and warming up, while Sawamura was asked to run.

After asking, I found out that Senior Chris agreed to throw and catch the ball with him and then let him warm up.

..., this warm-up Sendou means I cannot accept it.

After running the whole morning exercise, I feel tired, but Sawamura has no problem at all. After all, I have been practicing running at Sendou's request for the past three years in junior high school. Sawamura's endurance has reached the point where I can run for ten kilometers without losing my breath.

As soon as Sawamura complained about Senior Chris, he threatened him with going back, although Sawamura didn't hear it.

"Yo west! The next step is to sprint 20 times and then do stretching exercises!"

After Sawamura ran an unknown number of laps, Senior Chris finally wanted Sawamura to finish running.

"Everyone is going to have dinner already!"

Sawamura As soon as he retorted, the arrogant monster turned around and left, completely starved for food.

It looked like Sendou didn't want to go to dinner so early.

After struggling for a long time, Sawamura finally let Sawamura pitch.

"In the bottom half of the ninth inning, with two outs and the bases loaded, the ball count was loaded, and one hit was a bye.

If it were you, what pitch would you throw? "

As soon as Senior Chris opened his mouth, Sendou understood that the previous physical training was to simulate this situation!

And Sawamura's answer can only be a straight ball from the center to decide the winner. After all, this guy knows this kind of ball.

Both Senior Chris and Sendou understand that Sawamura's answer is correct.

And Sawamura also did what he said. In Sendou's opinion, it was a good ball full of Fighting Spirit and momentum.

However, the ones behind Senior Chris, Home Run off the field, and the batter is Hideki Matsui all just let Sawamura understand that baseball is not that simple, and let Sawamura explore his own talents.

Finally, I asked what is your specialty? After this question, I went to eat.

"It took me a long time to make a shot!" Sendou complained after Senior Chris left.

Although I know how much this goal has helped Sawamura, I can't help but Sendou wants to complain!

"Sendou! What is my specialty?" Since Senior Chris didn't say anything, Sawamura directly asked Sendou next to him.

"Think about it for yourself! Isn't that what Senior Chris said?" After saying that, Sendou also turned around and went to eat.

By the way, he is just a spectator. If Sawamura had to think about everything for him, wouldn't he be annoyed to death?

Recently, Sendou was shocked by the evolved Sawamura, how clingy he is.

There is a dog-skin plaster next to it and I can't get rid of it. What should I do if I add another one?

Sawamura, the enhanced stickiness version, should be left to Kanemaru Mama!

In the afternoon Sendou heard Sawamura asking around the world what his characteristics are.

However, Sendou has no time to care about these things. There is an important Practice Match match in the afternoon, and the opponent is Teitou, a famous member of East Tokyo.

It can also be said that East Tokyo is the only one in this team, unlike West Tokyo who is simply devilish.

Then after school, Sendou, who had changed his clothes and was getting ready to play, accidentally stepped on a bat on the ground... and fell to pieces!

The result was a sprained foot, and the doctor advised him to rest for three days...

If it were normal times, Sendou would be so happy to have three days off, but there will be a competition soon! Hello!

Then Coach Kataoka gave Sendou the first pass. With a look of tragedy on his face, he could only watch the seniors' game from the side. Especially at the beginning of the game, the third-year senior Double Hit scored three points in a row, which made Sendou want to go back.

Fortunately, Sawamura started the game in the second team, and it was a famous scene. In order to strengthen the control of the ball, Sawamura ended up with no power at all and the ball was all in the center. It was a tragedy to be hit.

Sendou, who decisively changed the venue to watch the game, was laughing so hard. Sawamura at this time was completely blind, thinking that controlling the ball could be achieved just by thinking about it.

He also didn't want to think that if it was so easy, wouldn't other seniors have done it long ago? Do you still need him?

However, what Sendou doesn't know is that although this guy also did such stupid things in the original book, Sendou's ability to control the ball in this life gave him great confidence.

Because in his impression, Sendou was Four-Quadrant Control when it was Batting Practice Pitcher for the first time, and then it became Nine Palace Grid when the difficulty was increased, and it could even be divided into more details.

What Sawamura doesn't know is that Sendou's ability to control the ball is innate, and the reason why he controls the ball so well is because he sacrifices ball speed.

It would be good if Four-Quadrant could keep pitching at full strength. This was still the case in elementary school. After all, Sendou had not pitched at full strength for four and a half years from the fourth grade of elementary school to the second grade of junior high school at that time.

However, that idiot Sawamura really thinks that controlling the ball is easy...

Seeing Sawamura being replaced, Sendou knew that Senior Chris's chicken soup for the soul was about to start, so he returned to First Team's competition venue.

As soon as he returned, he saw that Furuya was also injured...

Moreover, the coach sent him to the second army to run, which also sounded a wake-up call for Sendou, making him understand that it is okay to be lazy, but the details must be done well. (What do you understand?)

For Furuya, Sendou just want to say, this is too coincidental, right? Furuya was injured just after he was injured. The difference is that Furuya didn't cherish himself, while Sendou was a result of his temporary brain failure and accident.

Sendou also learned a piece of information, another difference between himself and Furuya.

Furuya uses more of his fingertips, the front edge of his fingers and the nails to generate force when pitching. According to Sendou's recollection, although he also uses his fingertips, he mostly uses his fingertips to generate high speeds.

Tanba, a third grader who has no way out, has reached his peak.

However, in Sendou's opinion, until Tanba masters the second type of Changeup, Tanba can only be a pitcher who lasts one or two rounds.

Sendou feels that maybe he is not qualified to say that. After all, he has not hit that curveball a few times in private duels Long Hit.

If other people heard this, they would definitely beat him up, because this guy has a high hitting rate against Senior Tanba. After all, he hits left-handed, and the curve ball is at most a very curved ball.

In the evening, the classic Double Pitcher race without turning on the lights was performed as scheduled on the court, and the two Little Cutie were also opponents!

In addition, today they were both substituted due to their own problems, so the two of them had something in common.

"Summer Tournament There's still a month and a half left, I have to hurry up and adapt. Time is running out, and now I haven't adapted yet. It's really outrageous!

Is it because there are too few pitchers at the high school level in actual combat? "Sendou thought to himself as he looked at the third-year seniors watching and Double Pitcher on the court.

However, what Sendou didn't know was that he had already made a major breakthrough a few days ago, and both his seniors and coaches had discovered his evolution in the past few days. Only he, who was obsessed with the authorities, didn't know it.

Time returns to dinner time in the evening

"Is it an illusion? That guy Sendou's swing is getting smoother and faster!" It happened that Jun-san and Captain Tetsu were talking about it.

"What a pity! That's not an illusion! That guy has already begun to transform!" Captain Tetsu's words reached Jun-san's fantasy.

"So you think so too! Tetsu!

... So it looks like it's real. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly!

The coaches think that this guy Sendou needs Summer Tournament to complete his transformation in continuous high-intensity games! "

"In the final analysis, it's just that Sendou's talent is exceptionally outstanding.

The so-called adapting to the high school pitching rhythm is nothing more than two reasons.

One is the ball speed. Most of the pitchers at Nagano, where the guy was in junior high school, have a ball speed of just 100 kilometers, and even a few people can't have a ball speed of more than 130 kilometers.

Faced with ball speeds exceeding 140 kilometers in high school, the body will not adapt to the rhythm for a while, and the feeling of dissonance will affect the performance.

In addition, Changeup is far less diverse than high school, and the range of changes is not one-dimensional at all.

But this guy is very smart. After completely giving up Changeup, he adapted very quickly.

The previous feeling of being unaccustomed to the speed of the ball in my swing has also begun to disappear, although my swing technique is still so poor. "Senior Chris was giving a professional explanation at the side.

"That's it!" Jun-san replied.

"Pure! Masuko! You also have to work hard. If this situation continues, your Center Batting Lineup's position may not be guaranteed!" Chris's last sentence may have been accidentally entered into the same channel as Coach Kataoka.

"That's right! Even if the defensive position is taken away, you can't take away that guy! But you can't lose the smooth play!" Jun-san Fighting Spirit looked full.

"Woo!" Masuko-senpai is a little less confident. The closer he is, the clearer he can see!

With the help of Sendou, I gradually got used to the way of hitting with a short bat.

Unfortunately, not much progress has been made.

In terms of IQ, Sendou can't help him. It's not that he's stupid, but that his brain doesn't pay attention to the combination of pitching and catching. It's even said that he is easily fooled, so although his batting average has increased, it cannot usher in a quantitative change.

Although Sendou can transform Masuko-senpai like its original partner, time does not allow it!

For Masuko-senpai, we can only take one step at a time.

In recent internal and external games, Sendou's batting average has been as high as 86%. Such a high batting rate is entirely due to Sendou relying on his brain to play the game.

The first player on the bench uses his out-of-bounds skill and only hits half a ball. Basically, the opponent's ball will not fly forward. While wearing down the opponent's energy, on the one hand, he may be walked to the bases or hit a single in front of him.

After all, focusing on hitting half a ball, Sendou's hitting level is not enough to switch freely to a full swing.

However, this ensures the batting average, and when the pitcher's physical strength declines, he starts to Long Hit finish, so his batting average remains high.

To advance the plot chapter, let me introduce the progress of Sendou this month.

Finally, please vote...
