The Seniors' Fierce Offensive

"Is this considered sabotaging your teammates?" Sendou, the center fielder, whispered as he saw Higasa looking frightened.

The third baseman's position was indeed too far back for Kusunoki-senpai Kusunoki-senpai, who was, after all, a backup shortstop for the summer.

As a defender, he is recognized as an important figure who can fill any gaps in the defense, wherever possible.

He can be considered an absolute star, and his popularity in the United States has gradually surpassed that of pitchers to become number one.

Performing such a function in such an important position, one can say nothing of slow reaction time or foot speed.

Although I don't know why, Higasa was a bit confusing at the beginning.

Or perhaps it's because Kusunoki-senpai has always been the third base pick in his mind, causing Higasa- senpai to forget what position Kusunoki-senpai used to play.

"Sigh! I didn't expect to be reminded by my seniors!"

"Really!" Miyuki glanced at the direction of third base and looked somewhat helpless.

He could understand why the manager had thought of having Sendou practice third base.

On the one hand, they put pressure on them, and on the other hand, they really intend to have Sendou step up when the manager is not satisfied with the defense of the two remaining third basemen!

"I'm not going to think about those irrelevant things anymore!"

Alright!

Your most important task right now is your opening performance.

Coach Ke was watching from behind!

"Please make sure you throw it properly!" Miyuki said to Furuya as he arranged his gloves.

Furuya was perfectly aware of this; he knew it without even needing to improve.

Lately, when Furuya, I keep thinking about Cheng Xiang's race!

I want to go back to that day and compete again. After facing reality, I will work hard and never have those memories again.

Coach Kataoka's comment, "A pitcher who uses brute force," was quite a blow to Furuya.

"Puff!"

"Piu!"

"Thump!!!"

"Nice shot!"

While not exactly tricky, Furuya's shots consistently found their way into the Strike Zone.

This guy's Fastball and power mean that once he gets into the Strike Zone, even if it's just a little easier, he won't be the kind of player who gets hit on the first ball.

"Puff!"

"Piu!"

"Thump!!!"

"Nice shot!!!"

"Oh!! This is Furuya's straight shot!" Kusunoki-senpai couldn't help but smile as he thought to himself.

No matter how many times I watch it, it's always thrilling. That's the essence of Furuya's ball. The smile on Kusunoki-senpai's face comes from this feeling.

"But it was easier to fight than I expected..."

"Puff!"

"Piu!"

"Ping!"

"So heavy!!!"

but,..."

"We've landed!!!"

Right field hit!! "

"They launched a fierce attack right from the start! A third-year team!!"

Although his shot wasn't particularly accurate in terms of trajectory, Kusunoki still managed to reach first base thanks to his speed.

"That was close! That was close!"

"We were almost completely overwhelmed by the ball's power!" Kusunoki-senpai had run to first base, thankfully.

"I thought he would rely more on power to pitch."

It seems like they've reflected deeply on the last match!

"But... I won't let you finish improving so easily and then get into top form!" Onii-san thought to himself as he watched the parabola of Kusunoki-senpai's shot.

Then, a series of clanging sounds came from the stadium.

Furuya is going crazy from being pestered by his older brother...

It felt like my shots were easily hit out of bounds no matter where I threw them, and my ball control wasn't very good either, with bad shots popping out every now and then.

Let alone him, even third-year Narumiya Mei wouldn't dare to guarantee how many easy shots he'd take in a game!

"Puff!"

"Piu!"

"Thump!!!"

"Four Balls!"

How many balls?

"About ten to twelve balls!"

"That's really impressive!"

"This is so hard to throw!" Furuya glanced at his older brother, who had reached first base.

I'm already feeling restless and agitated from all this.

When they were face-to-face, Furuya felt even more strongly how formidable his seniors were.

"So, is the control slightly better than before?" After seeing Senior Chris's Signals, Oni-san thought to himself as he moved further away from the base.

Unlike Koharu, Oni-san is very good at entanglement with pitchers, and his batting skills are also very good. He is also proficient in techniques such as Hit and Run, short-hit, and stolen bases.

Such batters are very difficult to deal with once they reach base.

"Hey, is this really okay? You care so much about the runners!" Isashiki-senpai thought to himself as he looked at Furuya.

"Start from here and Center Batting Lineup!"

"If the Ball Trajectory's trajectory is easy to hit, it'll be easy to hit out!" Miyuki thought to himself, staring at Furuya.

However, Senior Chris wasn't aiming for Furuya, but for Miyuki himself!!

"Puff!"

The moment Furuya took a step, Kusunoki-senpai and Onii-san started moving at the same time!

"Double Stolen Base!!!"

"Piu!"

"Hmm? Ugh!..."

"What?! This is!!!" Isashiki-senpai shouted as he swung his bat, seeing the ball coming straight at him and Ball Trajectory high.

"Ping!!!"

Isashiki-senpai hit the ball with his classic slash.

"This is Hit and Run!!!"

"It's exactly as I imagined! Baka yarou!!!"

"I've been wanting to hit that half-baked high ball of yours for ages!!" The base runner, Isashiki-senpai, was incredibly satisfied, like someone who'd been wanting to beat someone up for ages finally getting the chance to give them a good thrashing.

This attack was Miyuki. He had originally planned to test the waters with a bad ball first, but he didn't expect that Isashiki-senpai would directly attack such a difficult bad ball.

That shot was too far inside; it wouldn't be surprising if the shooter retreated to avoid it.

This attack was unexpected by Miyuki, but it was within Senior Chris's calculations.

Because Senior Chris anticipated that Miyuki's strong personality would prevent him from using Fast Forkball for the first ball, but rather a full-force straight ball.

Isashiki's personality, as long as he doesn't go for the juggling act like Sawamura, has the potential to hit out, which is why this double stolen base Hit and Run was designed.

After all, if Furuya's straight shot is at a tricky angle, Raichi won't easily take it.

Senior Chris, completely understanding Miyuki's thoughts, just like back in junior high school.

The reason Miyuki lost in junior high school was because his style of doing things was seen through and exploited by Miyuki on their very first meeting.

So no matter how many times he fought, he was always led by the nose until he met Sendou and realized where he had lost.

However, knowing this doesn't mean you can easily improve the situation...

"Pretty!

Not only did they see through the Black-bellied Glasses's tactics, but they also made full use of their own team's abilities!

"It's such a shame I didn't get to play with Senior Chris!" Sendou, sitting on the sidelines, was even more excited to be on Senior Chris's team tomorrow.

"See!"

"Double!!" Sendou's thoughts were brought back to reality by Isashiki-senpai's shout.

With his exceptional speed and the experience of stealing bases, Kusunoki-senpai, easily returned to home plate and scored.
