Chapter 353: Returning the Favor with Their Own Way

Seeing Ogawa Tsunematsu throw the ball, Huangqian Yangyi had already achieved his goal; as it turned out, this damn pig actually threw it wide!

"Ball!"

Masu Shinichiro reacted quickly, caught the ball, and glared at Ogawa Tsunematsu, preparing to do something to calm him down.

"Tsk, this won't do."

Although the voice was very soft and the Pitcher would basically not hear it, the expression on Huangqian Yangyi's face already said everything.

Idiot, what on earth are you trying to do?!

Masu Shinichiro was almost going crazy.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Masu Shinichiro gave the signal.

Ogawa Tsunematsu: Ignore it!

Carry out your own way, focus on pitching.

Ogawa Tsunematsu was going to face Huangqian Yangyi head-on.

Boom!!

His best Screwball, his winning pitch, possessing sharp movement and heavy ball quality—the ball he was full of confidence in—was hit by Huangqian Yangyi just like firing a cannon.

The spectators looked up at the sky; the baseball flew very far without falling, past the Center Fielder, the stands, and to the top of the mountain!

The baseball actually flew to the top of the mountain!

Home Run!

Such an exaggerated Home Run.

"Too beautiful!"

"Huangqian! Great hit!"

"Awoo!!"

"That's it, teach him a lesson!"

"Beat that fat man to death!"

"Don't give them a chance, hit them until they're dead!!"

The Seido fans were completely crazy; Arima's injury had left them full of pent-up anger, and now, seeing this massive Home Run from Huangqian Yangyi, they couldn't be more thrilled.

Running back to home plate easily, Huangqian Yangyi and Miyuki high-fived at home plate to celebrate, deliberately shouting very loudly—well, aimed at the Pitcher's Mound.

"Hahaha, so satisfying, this hit is invincible." Kuramochi laughed as he welcomed the two off the field.

"Senior is amazing," said Kominato Haruichi.

Huangqian Yangyi looked up and ruffled Haruichi's hair: "You're the truly amazing one, to actually hit a Home Run, it was simply too unexpected."

Kominato Haruichi lowered his head shyly; he hadn't expected that hit himself, but he was also very happy in his heart to have hit a Home Run.

On the field, the Fifth Batter, Higasa Shoji, stepped into the Batter's Box.

Shoo! Shoo!

Higasa Shoji made a strange sound, which sounded a bit funny, but he was very focused. With his batting ability, if he were a starter, it would be impossible for him to be ranked as the Fifth Batter, but now, he was taking the place of Arima Kazusa; he absolutely could not lose face, he had to make contact!!

On the Pitcher's Mound, Ogawa Tsunematsu did not feel like retreating after being hit for two consecutive Home Runs; there was only anger in his heart, and he equally wanted to crash into everyone on the field.

The pitch, carrying his anger, smashed toward home plate; the ball quality was very heavy, Higasa Shoji's bat was suppressed, and the baseball flew into the air.

"Foul Ball!"

The first pitch was a Foul Ball. Higasa Shoji, whose palms were a bit numb, took a deep breath and raised his bat again. Although he was suppressed, his swing was very decisive, and his desire to attack was fully displayed.

Just as the second pitch flew in, Higasa Shoji surprised everyone by lightly swinging his bat, eyeing the incoming ball to complete a bunt! The baseball fell to the left side, and Higasa Shoji dashed toward First Base in a flash.

"Safe!"

The bunt was a success!

Higasa Shoji had contributed to the team in his own way in this batting order that didn't suit him.

No outs! Runner on First Base; the secret weapon of Seiko High School had been blown up by Seido's formidable batting lineup!

Afterward, Shirasu's fly ball was caught for a Flyout, and Maezono pulled a Line Drive to Right Fielder for a Single, sending Higasa Shoji directly to Third Base.

The Eighth Batter, Asou Takeru, hit a beautiful pull shot to send Higasa Shoji back to home plate, though Maezono Kenta failed to reach Second Base and was tagged out.

Two outs, runner on First Base, the score was 10:0.

"Shoo-Shoo Senior!!"

"Higasa!!"

The teammates and the audience called out Higasa Shoji's name together.

At First Base, Asou, who had made a contribution, looked blankly at everyone cheering for his teammate.

What about me?

Why is no one cheering for me?

With two outs again, it was Tojo Hideaki's turn. Facing Ogawa Tsunematsu, whose control was off, Tojo Hideaki had a very hard time batting, but on the fourth pitch, Tojo connected with a Fastball for a Single!

The batting order had gone through a round, and the bottom of the second inning was not yet over; Kuramochi stepped into the Batter's Box again, but this time his luck was bad, and he hit a grounder.

The second inning ended here.

Top of the third inning, in front of the bench, Miyuki was stunned after hearing Huangqian Yangyi's new idea.

"No way, if we really do that, what will happen when a fight breaks out?"

"Hmph, then I'll definitely beat the shit out of that damn pig, then beat it into the shit, and finally use its own shit to beat it!"

After Huangqian Yangyi finished speaking, he put on his glove and walked toward the Pitcher's Mound.

The first batter for Seiko High School in this inning, the Seventh Batter, Ogawa Tsunematsu!

Here it comes!

The fans in the stands were a bit excited; they were looking forward to seeing Huangqian Yangyi's pitch to Nagata Shohei from the previous inning repeated on this Ogawa Tsunematsu!

On the Pitcher's Mound, Huangqian Yangyi looked calmly at the dead pig in the Batter's Box with his chin tilted up; a few seconds later, the dead pig grew anxious.

Heh.

Sneering inwardly, Huangqian Yangyi nodded at Miyuki, and Miyuki gave a wry smile before nodding back; it was no big deal, just reaching base.

Whoosh!

Amidst the gaze of the entire audience, Huangqian Yangyi lifted his leg and swung his arm in one fluid motion, and the baseball shot out from his fingertips with a whiz.

The violently spinning baseball was like a fierce tiger, hurtling straight toward the dead pig in the Batter's Box.

With the example of Changtian Shohei before them, everyone thought it would fly past the batter's body just like before; however, the next second, a scream rang through the stadium.

"Ah!!"

The baseball slammed heavily into Ogawa Tsunematsu's fat-filled belly, the intense pain causing him to instantly lose his strength and collapse to his knees.

"Ogawa!"

The members of Seiko shouted in terror.

"Ya~"

"Gomen gomen~"

"I slipped, just a little~"

Huangqian Yangyi wore a mocking smile, his chin tilted up as he offered his apology. (Imagine the expression of Tsukishima Kei from Haikyuu!!)

Look at that, this is what you call class; if you hit someone, you have to apologize.

In the Seido dugout, Kuramochi, Haruichi, Shirasu, Maezono, Sawamura... everyone stared at Huangqian Yangyi in stunned silence.

Director Kataoka, Coach Ochiai, and Takashima Rei—the three bigwigs were also dumbfounded at this moment.

Explosive!

They all knew that Huangqian Yangyi's pitch was definitely intentional, but they couldn't say it; they just had to enjoy it quietly in their hearts. Even if everyone could see it was intentional, it absolutely could not be said!

On the other side, Ogawa Tsunematsu was hit and taken off the field; the speed of Huangqian Yangyi's pitch hitting a body was no joke, and if it weren't for this dead pig's thick skin, he would likely have been injured even worse.

"That guy, he did it on purpose!" As Captain, Masu Shinichiro stood up for his underclassman.

"Hmph! Never mind whether it was intentional or not, he apologized after hitting someone."

Having suffered a huge loss in the game, Changtian Shohei found Ogawa Tsunematsu more and more annoying the more he looked at him; in his view, being caught in the crossfire of Huangqian Yangyi's anger was a disaster he hadn't deserved.

After being retorted, Masu Shinichiro didn't know what else to say; he only then realized that when Ogawa Tsunematsu had hit the Seido player and sent him to the hospital, not a single person on their side had expressed an apology.

Helpless, he could only watch silently as Ogawa Tsunematsu was placed on a stretcher and sent to the hospital.
