Scorching summer, clash above the top.

The supreme stage that teenagers look forward to the most.

Everyone fights for it, unwilling to leave a battlefield of remorse and regret.

However.

In the present day.

Eighteen teenagers were destined to stop there.

Behold the highest glory and weep bitter tears.

For these eighteen teenagers, defeat is a pain, but there are other things that make them feel more uncomfortable and feel a great shame.

"Whew!"

"Keep up!!"

"Please! One is good!! ”

"Nara-kun!!"

"Ace, please!!"

The hoarse cry, the high-pitched words that seemed to unleash all the energy.

However!

"Huh"

However, the unreachable distance, the height that could not be intercepted at all.

"Boom!!"

"Good shot, hitter out!!"

It was still without mercy, without any pause, and went straight into home plate.

The loud sound of falling.

and the firm ruling words of the presiding judge.

"The end of the game !!"

"Oooo

The entire Koshien Stadium was once again swept by the wave of wild shouts!!

"It's over, it's over! After nine rounds of fierce battles, this clash between famous families won an overwhelming victory with a score of 5-0 from Qingdao High School! That's right! It's an overwhelming victory! In this tournament, the ace pitcher who made his debut for the first time, Nobu Shigeruno, completed the strong Saibon line in nine innings, no hits, no four bads, no touch balls, no mistakes on base, and no points conceded! Thirteen strikeouts! Completely blocked the West Bun line, impeccable perfect pitching, this is the pitching aesthetics from His Royal Highness the Tyrant of Tokyo!! Famous Qingdao, semi-finals, promotion!! ”

"Hahaha, the top four! Successfully qualified! ”

"Totally matched! It's so handsome, Ace-sama. ”

"Sealed !!"

"No hits, no runners, this is the ace that our school is proud of."

"The strongest generation!!"

A raucous shout.

It was a burst of cheers from first base at the end of the game.

The center of attention.

Naturally, it was Shigeno Shin who was surrounded by many Qingdao players with a confident smile on the pitcher's hill and his right arm raised!

A fierce battle of nine rounds!

Throw the ball with all your might.

The completely suppressed Xibang line!

Achieve a full match achievement.

Unlike the previous Jumo High School, which was a goal that was achieved by relying on the following investment, it was not a real complete game at all, and this quarterfinals match with only Shigerun's first start to the last game was a complete game of real value.

And it's on the grand stage of Koshien in the summer.

Nobu Shigerano has added another colorful and extremely beautiful record for himself!!

"Wow!? This is really a complete match!? ”

"Tut-tut, it should be said that in the second round of the game, when the strikeout Sano-kun is made again, it is already a foregone conclusion, right!? this game. ”

"But it's a complete race! In other words, the last time Koshien achieved this feat, it seems that it was nearly ten years ago, right!? ”

"It's a complete game, this is a great record, and the most important thing is because the opponent is Xibang, and it's the Xibang line led by Shuzo Sano, who has defeated countless ace pitchers, no matter where Qingdao High School can go next, at least, the title of the strongest pitcher this summer must belong to Shigerun-kun."

"The scouts in the front row were shocked."

"You know, this is the Koshien quarterfinals, or a collision between the two favorites to win the championship, Shigerno can have such a performance, these people are not shocked, and remember, Shigerno is only in the second grade! It's only the second grade! ”

"Hehe, I can foresee what kind of wave Shigerun-kun will set off at next year's draft."

The cheering Qingdao, the loneliness and even the silence of Xibang can be said to be like death.

The contrast is extremely striking at this moment.

Even if it is a Xibang player with a firm mentality and a mature mentality.

It's hard to suppress your emotions at this moment.

It's not just the pain of defeat, it's the great shame of being able to achieve the perfect match that is constantly eating away at their hearts.

The first to the ninth bat.

Exactly three sequences of reincarnation.

Not a single batter hit a hit, not a single runner hit base.

This kind of bloody reality of being completely pressed to the floor by His Royal Highness the tyrant, without even the slightest resistance.

At this moment, the last thing these Xibang players want to face is the result.

However, even if they close their eyes for a moment and try to escape from the fact in front of them, whether it is the piercing shouts and cheers in their ears, or the reality that remains the same after opening their eyes, it is constantly piercing their hearts.

"Let's get in line...

As the head coach, Superintendent Nishiji couldn't say anything at this moment, so he could only gently pat the shoulders of the players who were crying on his side, and said in the softest tone.

"Yes。。。。。。"

Red eyes, stumbling steps, and a rickety figure.

The taste of defeat, the powerlessness of being completely crushed.

In the West Bang High School players, it is vividly reflected.

The only one who can straighten his body and move forward is Sano Shuzo, perhaps because of his self-esteem as a four-rod, or because of his pride as a strong beater, or because he is unwilling to show his fragile side.

Sano still held his head high and strode towards home plate.

"Line up!"

"Dada

"Salute!"

"Thank you for the advice!"

Standard bows, juvenile words in different tones.

The king's invincible strength is displayed.

It also once again refreshed the upper limit of the national audience's perception of this famous team.

Especially Nobu Shigerano, the ace pitcher of Seido High School.

At this moment, he became the strongest pitcher in the eyes of the national audience.

If it is said that Shigerno Shin, who can complete the Sai Bang line, is not worthy of this title!? So who else has such qualifications!?

"It's defeated, you're convinced, Shigerino Shin, you're really strong."

Four sticks and aces standing face to face.

With a resolute look, Sano Shuzo looked at Shigeru in front of him, and seemed to say with a loose smile.

But Shigeno can smell a trace of the unwillingness that belongs to Sano's construction.

"Will you take it? That apex, or rather, that apex, is the only one you can take! Don't stop there. ”

"Ah, I will, this goal has never been shaken from beginning to end, that apex is only for our Qingdao High School!!"

The hands clasped tightly together, the shadows elongated by the bright sun.

The mutual determination hidden in the words.

Stop the dreams entrusted by the teenagers.

Carried by the winner, firmly moving forward!

Until that only apex peak!!

The 89th, Summer National High School Contest, Fourth Round, Quarterfinals, Match 1, Qingdao High School vs. Xibang High School.

Five to zero.

Qingdao High School won the victory and successfully advanced to the semi-finals!
