Do you want to see the scum, who was forgiven because he was good at baseball, be destroyed?

Well, since the author is doing it, they will probably depict signs of growth as a human within this practice match.

Battle of Wits (laughs)

It’s my fault for ignoring the loud voices from the three when the fly was hit up.

He’s an arrogant jerk who looks down on others, but he’s not cowardly, so it’s sad to think he might completely break down and be irrecoverable…

I was liked less by my teammates than I expected.

>>10

Well, it’s just being overly cocky.

Everyone was just relieving their frustration by playing pretend talent agency, so of course they’d complain if a boring mistake happened.

>>10

Rather, it’s hard for anyone to defend a blunder that’s worse than a simple mistake when you blatantly ignore instructions.

It’s beyond a matter of likes and dislikes; breaking baseball on your own has crossed a line that can’t be overlooked.

Let’s switch to Masumi as the pitcher.

>>11

I thought this development would happen in an official match.

Is it okay to break someone in a practice match!?

>>12

I’m just testing which pitcher will break down first…

If everything is completely destroyed and I transfer schools, everyone will be happy.

>>13

Read it properly.

However, it’s said that this guy is a genius who will eventually realize he can only throw three pitches, so at least for the duration of this game, it would be tough if he isn’t broken.

Considering the previous work, the three-ball restriction will probably remain as is until the end.

>>15

That’s why I make it so that I can’t trust my powers of observation.

When it comes to the fly, it’s completely this guy’s own fault, which is troubling.

Since I have only been doing sumo by myself, it was a blind spot that I am weak in strategies and team play.

If someone is only tolerated because of their abilities, then when they can no longer demonstrate those abilities, of course…

When I read it again, I realized that at the moment I first recognized Kiriyama as the Dark Lord, I already detected the right elbow injury.

I just haven’t realized it due to the shock.

It was frustrating being told by someone playing a different game that baseball is a team sport!

Why did you start Minecraft in the middle of playing PowerPro?

>>24

You’re looking at them not as teammates, but as building materials, right?

>>24

That could happen in Power Pro.

If you become a Todoroki who has gained humility and can play as a team, it would be seriously dangerous, so break their spirit.

>>25

I’ve seen this in something like “Rookies.”

>>30

Rookies had an evolved Megurogawa as the final boss, and Seirei Tele seems to be getting tougher too.

As for observational skills, they’re genuine…

So it destroys confidence and makes it impossible to believe in oneself.

>>28

Until now, it’s been bad that Toru has been able to win alone.

>>28

I’m the only one who scored a point! Come on!

That’s a perfectly reasonable argument…

Baseball is not something you do alone…

I started to doubt my own power of observation, and it’s becoming a bit sad.

From the reader’s perspective, it’s clear there are various interpretations, but from Todoroki’s teammates’ perspective, it just looks like an unlikable guy suddenly started messing up.

Is it possible that the director is not good with that level of dirty jokes because he has no experience with men?

>>34

Why is someone who thinks of a double play as a dirty joke even the coach of the baseball team?

>>34

For that reason, I wonder why there is no resistance to body contact.

>>38

That’s that, and this is this, I suppose.

>>34

Maybe she pretended to be childish to tease the boys?

Kobori, who has been with us for a long time and is considerate, was irritated and just let it go.

Too much of a genius, that’s why I’m defeated by the demon king and Minecraft.

Even when cornered, this guy has a better character than just being pitiful.

Being brought down by Kiriyama and this incident are both the result of my own arrogance, so I have only myself to blame…

I feel sorry that they were being pressured by others, suggesting they’re not smart, but I guess they’ve been told things like that regularly…

I’m just doing the team because it’s advantageous for my teammates and the coach when it comes to getting a job.

I want a scene where it’s like playing baseball calculatedly, like the crown of sand, but still loving baseball deeply…

When it grows up, it will probably form a party…

>>48

I mean, why are you playing baseball solo?

>>49

If I pitch and hit, just one person is enough.

I laughed thinking that Shohei Ohtani, who loves sports manga, is probably reading this too.

>>50

Are you reading it?

In a typical baseball manga, after losing, the characters who looked down on you would reconcile after going through various things, and when we face each other again, we would part ways with the idea that we would become even stronger… It could go either way, where they appear later as a formidable rival who has truly grown stronger or become just a stepping stone for an even stronger opponent.

I have no idea what will happen to this guy after this.

Is the plan to eliminate promising players from the region within three pitches before entering official matches?

It seems like I might become a rival monster like Rejad.

Betting this pitch on a fifteen’s summer!

Just looking at it, it’s cool in a straightforward way and makes me laugh.

>>59

In that scene, they are using delicate control to successfully execute a bunt fly with all their heart and soul.

The aftermath is evil, but that moment was truly sincere.

>>59

I’m betting not to win the match, but to make an impression on everyone in order to participate in the match first.

>>63

Because I’m playing a different game.

>>59

For Inou, it is a matter of life and death.

I can’t expect anything from next year onward.

>>59

(I have no intention of betting on anything beyond next year.)

Masumi also has various foundations crumbling, so it feels uncertain about what will happen.

Masumi has probably never seen a loud roar like this before.

But if I don’t break this guy, I can’t go to Koshien.

Even if I lose this time, I will have awakened by the time we meet in the main event.

>>68

Can it be broken one more time?

What Inou is saying is very much like a passionate main character, but the visuals are just too evil, which is awful.

Kiryama striking a pose at third base is also amusing.

>>70

This guy is a ninja…

That’s strange… The villager was supposed to destroy our pitcher…

>>71

The villager feels like it’s all good, even though their plan is falling apart, as the results are beyond expectations.

>>78

Each person has their own schemes, and it’s become chaotic, but it’s terrifying how everyone is enjoying it.

>>78

This guy is definitely a player who is into SimCity or something like that…

…Huh?

You’re saying to destroy it, but who is it that you’re trying to destroy?

>>76

Isn’t it a bit too much of a gamble?

>>85

It would have been crazy if everyone were Masaru-chan.

>>76

If you see Todoroki’s bunting and baserunning, you’ll surely underestimate him!

If you pop up a bunt, they should intentionally let it drop and aim for a double play!

Your teammates will probably warn you, but you won’t be able to listen because you’re too upset!

>>91

It may be said as a warning, but it’s the catcher who gives instructions on where to throw during a baseball bunt play, and it’s only natural.

>>91

It’s too pinpoint meta…

>>76

He’s just a genuinely sincere guy, despite having a horrible face and attitude.

I’ve mastered various things until now, so saying that I’m going to Koshien to write a book might sound a bit arrogant, but on the flip side, it means I’ve been putting a lot of effort into various fields…

It’s not really the type of thing that you can just do like a roar.

Once I gain humility, I feel like my strengths will be nerfed, and I might lose because of that.

This is a practice match…

There are many people who dislike it but are trying to advance their careers in school or employment through Tougou Dashi, so it might be a problem if they become unable to do so.

Practice match… it really is a practice match, isn’t it?

>>83

It’s too intense for a practice match…

What on earth is going to happen when the official match begins?

That guy’s goal is not just to “participate in Koshien,” but to have “experience participating in Koshien.”

If you ask who is the best at tightrope walking, it’s Inou.

High school baseball places great importance on practice games.

That’s about 150 games a year.

Masumi’s way of following up was something like, “Stop blaming me! I was just excited because I’m able to do it well right now since I’m a fool!”

>>90

But that touched the wrath of Todoroki!

Whether we win or lose, Kobori has almost achieved his goal in this match.

>>94

So it’s a situation where we can put our energy into victory and the destruction of the opposing team.

In reality, it’s a fact that he has almost single-handedly won this much due to his genius.

In a way, it’s because I trust my allies the most, Inoue…

Given that premise, it’s impressive that you’ve done the groundwork, trained, and can execute a perfect bunt-fly-end run in the actual game.

In reality, there are players who go to Koshien alone, even if just a few.

It’s a nasty situation, but since I can leave it to Todoroki! The atmosphere of the team has been disrupted, so now Todoroki can’t play baseball freely anymore.

The opponent’s mob player doesn’t seem to have a particularly high opinion of Todoroki, but it doesn’t seem low either.

Surprisingly, it doesn’t seem like the team will fall apart.

>>104

All the main members won’t even have the possibility to continue after next year, not even for three years…

I hope Todoroki-kun makes a comeback next year and becomes the strongest player.

I might be moved if Inou, who is playing Minecraft alone, starts playing baseball with a muddy head slide.

I wonder if Yo-chan, who doesn’t have outlandish strategies or overwhelming physicality, can hit the next one…

>>109

It seems like a defensive collapse might happen.

>>109

(When I scan it, various Sho-chan appears and it gets confusing.)

>>109

So it was necessary to destroy the opposing team.

Having the director stop me with a wrestling move was surprisingly the most scared I was as part of the strategy.

I don’t understand the meaning of what I’m writing.

We were supposed to be testing whether our own ace would break, not the opponent’s…

>>112

I’ll test to see if I can break the opponent since things turned out better.

>>112

Rather than breaking, it powered up!

Both times, it’s a plan that hits hard because Todoroki is a genius…

I want you to collaborate with Junket Bank.

Destroys talented young people.

This is a practice game, right?

I couldn’t help but laugh when someone said that Ino-kun might start licking his bat someday, probably someone who just started reading.

I’m already licking it…

>>122

I wonder why I underestimated this guy…

>>122

It seems like they could even lick a poisoned knife.

“They said, ‘That guy is going to run home to boost his popularity!’ and I felt embarrassed and stopped, so I do have some human feelings…”

As expected, if there’s a 0% chance of hitting even from a top-class pitcher, then it’s impossible at Koshien, so we need at least someone like Yo-chan to be able to hit.

What the heck is up with that villager?

Isn’t that the final boss?

>>127

Source of trolling, harassment, and confusion.

Yo-chan is probably a pretty decent player.

I mean, it’s like Kobori is subtly guiding towards making Inou the starting member.

Ino is working hard to explain the points properly and is going in the direction of getting everyone on board.

It was an amazing move, but was that bunt really worth dedicating your youth to…?

>>131

To be serious, in real high school baseball, players on the edge of making the team can lose their jersey numbers due to mistakes like failing to bunt in practice games.

>>131

You need to accurately execute a bunt fly against the ultra ace’s blazing fastball, you know?

>>131

If I can’t successfully execute a bunt there, I won’t be able to become a starter, so Ino’s summer at the age of 15 ends there.

I think if I come back here, I’ll stand against you as a rival again, but I might just end up being a distraction.

Baseball is a game that everyone on the team plays together.

>>133

Is it something to say with an utterly wicked face?

>>133

It’s something you should say when showing the unity of your own team, not something to say while messing up the opposing team.

I just wanted to play RPG as usual, but I got ambushed by monsters and ended up in Minecraft, poor otter…

>>134

The wild monsters aside, it was my fault for playing solo in Minecraft while dissing my teammates…

If the opposing team isn’t there, we can’t play baseball…

Even if the seeds are being sown, it’s still a strategy that’s way too much of a gamble.

I was beaten down this week, and it’s terrible that I’m definitely going to be hit again after this.

Isn’t it the case that if we stimulate them half-heartedly in a practice match, they won’t come back stronger later?

For Inou, it was an important match that could lead to a regular spot, so it was necessary to add some stimulation considering that.

Even though it’s an RPG, since Tohru is traveling alone as a hero, there is still room to add more companions.

Are you okay? Can this match really be kept private?

>>145

I can’t say that the roar has become a wreck, so Seitele is desperately hiding it!

>>154

I wonder if the relationships with my teammates are so bad that they wouldn’t leak things to others for the purpose of making fun of me?

>>166

The benefits of doing that are minimal.

Since the team has been promoting the persona of Tohru from the beginning, they can’t let it slip now.

>>166

If we really had a bad relationship, it wouldn’t be like that.

I’m at a level where my teammates even question why I’m on the bench during practice matches.

This is really the last chance to be on the bench when participating in Koshien.

Was this match also a durability test for the thread image…

>>148

No one expected it!

>>148

Oh, I just activated my Orichalcum because I felt like I could break something!

Kobori-kun is just conducting a durability test for his allies and has no plans to destroy the opposing team!

This time it was revealed that Kiriyama can run quite a bit.

I thought that even with the three-pitch limit, it seems like there could still be a lot of variety in how the story develops.

They keep delving into the intricate parts of the rules, and each time, Kobori explains it in detail, so it seems like the director will eventually become extremely knowledgeable about the rules.

>>164

I will at least remember the name of the alcohol I received.

It’s been unfortunate since I started showing my face, despite this personality.

I think Tsubasa’s RPG mindset ultimately leads to the idea that if it’s an RPG, you can form a party! But I wonder.

>>157

But can Todoroki’s pride swallow that!

>>165

It’s how we perceive Kiryama’s existence…

Even if you can’t swing the bat, with that speed, it seems like you can do a lot of things, Kiriyama.

Kobori’s groundwork is excessively good…

It shouldn’t be allowed to score in a practice match, but…

Why is it interesting every week… it’s strange…

Practicing properly increases your status; Inou is too much of a genius.

Inou’s clever strategy needs to be explained by Kobori and Hirose.

It was just a failed bunt, but the opponent made a mistake, and even though Kiriyama had a base-running error, he was so unusually fast that it only looks like a lucky outcome.

If you don’t trust your companions, you can’t present them as a point of appeal.

Todoroki-kun and his team are just breaking down on their own…

>>167

Isn’t the team fundamentally broken?

>>173

No? As a one-man team, it’s perfect.

This time I just happened to encounter a demon king named Kiriyama.

The three horses were supposed to be for durability testing from the beginning, but they were unexpectedly destroyed, and as a result, there was no support for the truly unfortunate Toride.

Everyone is using the players for test plays…

>>170

It’s just a practice match…

>>170

Test play!

The teacher is not good with dirty jokes, you know!?

Kiryama really runs all the way to third base confidently…

It’s terrible that it can only come across as a blunder if it’s not from the reader’s perspective, like in the sword fight in Shigurui.

>>175

Well, before that, considering that they showed a slow base-running performance, it would seem to others that they were trying to make a mistake.

From the perspective of a teammate, there’s no need to expose it outside because we’re trying to use Todoroki to gain an advantage for employment by going to Koshien.

Regarding Todoroki, it’s fine if he plays baseball alone, but make sure to use us as proper tools.

I have a feeling that there will be a development where I become a fully-equipped hero.

>>177

If the direction of the production aligns, it will become a stronger team.

I think it’s wrong to blatantly hold back when your team is winning, Iino!

>>178

That itself is a trap to showcase one’s strong competitive spirit.

>>183

I just realized that…!?

If you break here, it just means you were a player of that level and it’ll all be over…

I want to somehow make a comeback and do my best to break again at the tournament.

In the end, the reason why Tokitachi can break through now and why the two members of the team can level up without being aware of their weaknesses is because the villagers went out drinking with the leaders of each school, gained their trust, changed the opponents, and arranged for a completely spectator-free match.

This guy may seem unremarkable during the game, but he’s incredibly scary.

Inoue is doing things just like Kaiji.

>>187

Kaiji can’t be this efficient or put in this much effort…

This was quite a good find for Inou.

>>188

However, I feel a sense of danger that I might end up being the one to create a pinch in order to enhance the book.

I find villagers the most frightening.

>>191

When Togoshi realizes that he narrowly escaped death thanks to Kobori, he finds him utterly repulsive.

In short, it’s just that I want to contribute as a pinch hitter and make it to the bench, right, Inou?

With only two months of baseball experience, I’m narrowing down my opportunities to excel.

My friends just went to talk to Aoriaore as usual, but they reacted in a way that left lasting grudges…

Even though I made a fatal blunder, there was a vibe this time that made it feel like I could laugh it off and be forgiven.

It’s terrible that things have become tense because Todoroki is feeling more pressured inside than his teammates realize.

I realized I didn’t really understand the double play while reading…

It had become a point where Masumi-kun’s genius had nothing to do with his feelings for baseball, the accumulation of experiences, or promises.

A further genius who has bet everything on baseball has overpowered it.

Geniuses from other fields have once again messed things up regardless of their feelings towards baseball.

It’s scary that the talent for baseball is mediocre, so it doesn’t catch the attention of the roaring Ai, villager.

However, it is desirable to reinforce the batting lineup beyond just unusual strategies.

It was the optimal solution.

As a result of not noticing Ino’s trap, it just turned into a simple blunder.

I’m currently in a state where I’m too strong for my own heart to keep up, so I will definitely grow a lot.

The potential for growth in the mental aspect is as great as that of a boy who has just started learning baseball.

Is it really okay to give them a chance to grow before the official match?

To an ordinary person, all they understand is that Kiryama’s speed is incredible.
