Chapter 752 Don't Worry

The game ended.

In the dugout of the Seido High School Baseball Team, the teammates celebrated their victory with joy.

For them, this first game was clearly not easy, although Sakurazawa High School did not cause them much trouble during the game.

However, with two other powerhouse teams as a comparison, the players of the Seido High School Baseball Team felt immense pressure during the game.

They absolutely did not want to lose to their competitors.

So throughout the game, they kept competing with the players from the other two teams.

Because the level of opponents was different, the players of the Seido High School Baseball Team did not have smooth sailing during the game.

Their own teammates even thought it would be difficult to end the game early in five innings.

Fortunately, hard work pays off.

After their efforts, especially led by Zhang Han's Homerun and hits, the teammates launched a series of offensive barrages in the 3rd and 4th innings.

They scored a total of ten runs in one go.

This allowed them to end the game early in five innings.

Although the runs they scored were not as many as the other two powerhouses, considering they did not get a chance to bat in the bottom of the fifth inning, their performance was already very good.

At the very least, when compared to the other two powerhouses, they wouldn't look bad.

The Seido teammates, having achieved their game objective, were naturally very excited. The smiles on their faces could not be hidden no matter what.

In stark contrast was their opponent in today's game, Sakurazawa High School.

The Sakurazawa players cried sadly.

Tears in Nagao Akira's eyes had blurred his vision.

He looked at the Seido players celebrating their victory, and a feeling of relief flashed through his heart.

This is good!

When playing against the Seido High School Baseball Team, he naturally felt a sense of unwillingness in his heart.

They had worked so hard for so long, of course they wanted a better result.

Even if they didn't get a better result, they shouldn't have lost so miserably, right...

It wasn't until after the game ended that Nagao Akira realized how immature his original thoughts were; in fact, this was already good.

If they had truly gone through a tough battle with the Seido High School Baseball Team and ultimately lost by one run, they would have been even more unwilling.

Their hearts would be extremely remorseful, wondering why they didn't work harder during training. Why didn't they improve a bit more? Perhaps if they had worked a bit harder, they wouldn't have lost the game.

But now, the crushing defeat made them realize how big the gap was between them and the Seido High School Baseball Team players.

This way, their inner unwillingness no longer existed.

After all, with such a large difference in strength, even if they had put in twice as much effort back then, the current result would not have changed much.

"Losing so badly, we have nothing to be unwilling about! I hope you can go further."

Nagao Akira and his teammates were already third-year students.

After this Summer Tournament, they would inevitably bid farewell to high school baseball forever.

What exactly this final game would leave them with, no one could say for sure.

The players of the Seido High School Baseball Team had complex feelings.

Seeing the other side so distressed, they weren't completely without compassion.

However, as the two sides of the game, they also couldn't offer words of comfort. Should they, as victors, tell the other side that they had tried very hard?

Wouldn't that be like slapping them in the face?

The teammates of the Seido High School Baseball Team were very polite.

They couldn't do something that was clearly a slap in the face.

Zhang Han watched his teammates without saying a word, and Yuuki, as the captain, could only prepare to step forward.

With the other players silent, Yuuki, as the team captain, felt a sense of inescapable responsibility.

He had to say something.

But with his captain's personality, what kind of words could he say at this moment?

Zhang Han couldn't guess.

However, Zhang Han believed that what the captain said might not be very pleasant to hear.

After all, he was originally the kind of person who was very straightforward.

"You don't need to be so dejected. This summer, we will prove with our strength that losing to us is not a shameful thing."

Zhang Han walked in front of Yuuki and spoke first.

Nagao Akira and his teammates hadn't expected Seido to respond to them.

Now Zhang Han suddenly stood out and spoke such grand words to them.

The players of Sakurazawa High School were very shocked.

Then they felt that Zhang Han, including the Seido High School Baseball Team players who stood still without speaking or acting, all shared the same thought.

This whole team seemed to be glowing.

All of this proved that they were truly different.

Compared to them, the Seido High School Baseball Team had greater ambitions; all of them firmly believed that they could go further.

"Then we'll wait and see!"

The tears on his face hadn't been wiped clean yet, but Nagao Akira felt his mood had improved a bit.

This team that defeated them should also be able to ride the wind and break the waves, pressing forward with indomitable will.

From Nagao Akira's perspective, he didn't feel that the Seido High School Baseball Team in front of him would lose to anyone.

Including the other two powerhouses in West Tokyo, Inashiro Industrial and Ichidaisan Third High School.

Before this Summer Tournament, many media outlets had predicted that West Tokyo had entered the Warring States period.

That statement was not wrong...

The current situation in West Tokyo was indeed somewhat perplexing.

The original three powerhouses had all grown to different degrees.

Inashiro Industrial was said to be the strongest it had been in years.

Seido High School had just won the Kanto Tournament and still had the lingering prestige of a Kanto overlord.

Ichidaisan Third High School, compared to its two predecessors, had a slightly weaker momentum recently.

But even if it was a little weaker, they were still a top national team that had reached the quarterfinals in the Spring Koshien qualifiers.

Not to mention, after the Spring Tournament ended, they also found a new Ace Pitcher.

To be able to replace Manaka Kaname and become the new Ace of the Ichidaisan Third High School Baseball Team, everyone could easily guess the pitcher's ability.

The competition among just these three powerhouses was already enough to capture people's attention.

Not to mention, there were also Yakushi High School Baseball Team, Sensen Academy, Seikou, and Seikou...

These rising stars were eyeing them covetously.

The intensity of the competition in West Tokyo was even referred to as Little Koshien.

Such an exhilarating contest was watched by countless fans nationwide.

In the Tokyo area, the number of people watching was even greater.

No one could guess what the final outcome would be.

As qualified spectators, they could only silently follow their competition.

In the third round of the West Tokyo Tournament, capable powerhouses and strong teams had already begun to appear one after another.

Although they did not directly face each other, there was still a horizontal comparison.

Any team that managed to win two consecutive games and face them could not be considered weak.

These teams, more or less, had some level of skill.

However, facing these somewhat skilled teams, the three powerhouses all displayed incredibly strong dominance.

They all ended their games early in five innings.

The remaining few highly anticipated strong teams were also like this; at worst, they had effective games of seven innings.

In this round of games, the most dazzling team was not any of the original three powerhouses of West Tokyo.

Instead, it was an entity that had shown its face before but was not dazzling.

Now it had become the most brilliant one.

This team was Yakushi High School...

The result of their first game was so astonishing that even the media following the game could barely believe it.

Five effective innings.

Sanada, as the Ace, gave the opponent no chance to attack, cleanly taking care of all the batters.

This was not the most astonishing part.

The most astonishing part was the incredibly terrifying offensive power they displayed.

They scored a total of 23 runs in 5 innings of offense.

Their average score per inning approached five runs.

23:0.

West Tokyo had not seen such a lopsided score in an official game for many years.

Yakushi was bound to soar.

West Tokyo was originally a three-way struggle for dominance; now, it would probably become a four-way battle for supremacy.
