Don’t get so emotional!

Say something, Iga.

I ended up crying after getting too tense, but what are we going to do about this atmosphere?

>>2

You started the conversation, didn’t you?

It’s nice that the cover illustration kindly tells us that everyone except Aya and Iga have been friends playing baseball together since they were small.

>>3

Well, there is one guy who escaped to soft tennis…

The punch of a sound argument is so strong that all I can say is that I’ve become emotional or my personality has changed.

The former salesman’s tactics are quite cunning; I wonder if this Phoenix formation can be denied.

The adults’ intentions are raw.

This is Boy A…

This is a diamond abyss.

I want to carefully hear what the other team members think.

A figurine-like sea urchin…

I’m pitching so that I don’t let any runs score!

It was Tokio who told me to throw as much as I can!

Everyone should play hard and succeed!

So, what will Tokio be satisfied with?

I cried!!!

It’s true that Tokimitsu is getting the short end of the stick.

I’m serious, but crying is… not good…

If there are nine Ayase Rivers, that would be a dream team.

>>15

I wonder if Aya has the talent to be a catcher.

A pitcher who is not evaluated positively as the second in command of Aya.

I can’t do the short I want to do, and since Aya isn’t hitting, I can’t appeal for defense either.

The pitcher also needs to put in effort, so they probably haven’t been able to improve their batting, which means they can’t make a good impression with their hitting either.

It’s because you’re weak…

This isn’t a phoenix, it’s grilled chicken.

After reading volume 8, I was told again to apologize for the number issue, and I accepted it! The circular thing is too dazzling!

>>21

The yen is really like the sun.

Compared to that, Aya

You are trash.

How about making an appeal through your performance?

When Tokio became aware of the existence of Ayase River, he had no choice but to either switch to being a batter or quit baseball altogether.

>>25

Well, you knew that both were just putting on a front with the greetings while they were actually going at it.

Although the Phoenix side was trying to warn, there was still a thorough probing of each other’s intentions.

Tokiwa is trash…

>>26

You’re just a piece of trash that only complains…

Since they’re going to Gunma in episode 1, they’re skipping Yokohama…

There will be another upheaval.

It’s all Igga’s fault for holding everything back with baseball.

>>33

Even against a physically strong opponent, you can still engage in malicious bullying.

If you get angry and start hitting, it will be a chance to drive out the phoenix.

>>33

Still, I can at least do some harassment!

Does this mean that if everyone enters Yokohama, this tension will continue for another three years?

>>35

I guess so.

Moreover, this time they’ll be significantly envied by their seniors, making it even more uncomfortable, and I can only describe it as hell.

Jinmi… if you hadn’t quit…

Um… at least the way you say it…

It seems that even though only the name came up, Phoenix has done quite a bit during the time of the talented player named Takada.

It’s just too pathetic to harass the ace of a team that keeps winning in baseball.

Also, if Ayasegawa slips up, everything might come to an end, so we can’t do it.

>>48

Since it’s a manga, they probably won’t do anything stupid.

In reality, middle schoolers can’t think and act that thoroughly, but since it’s a time when they have some cunning, those who want to do it will do it.

Since only the skilled players can become regulars even if everyone joins Yokohama, we don’t have to have a face-to-face meeting.

Yes! I think A, who turned down the invitation to go bowling, is to blame!

I never thought a single word from Akechi-san could change someone so much.

Meeting Start

After confirming the team’s overall goals, Tokio challenges A not to stand out, and A responds with a barrage of reasonable arguments.

Time weeps.

>>52

Ayasegawa, don’t get emotional.

If A is strong, then you can just attack from the mother or sister, so there are ways to crush it.

The mother is being gossiped about for not coming to help, and since the sister is in love with the brother, it’s easy to imagine that the brother, who was made to cry by the arrogant A, would treat him coldly.

You guys just stuck around because of the Ayase River’s barter.

Do you understand? It’s not even an accessory.

At the very least, be aware that you’re holding us back.

Could you please try to not be overly forward?

I want everyone to feel gloomy when they say things like that.

I want Ayasegawa to secretly hear that and fall further into the dark side.

Well, there isn’t any.

>>54

Everyone understands, and even A knew it when asked, so it will just be a confirmation.

Aya, who had been thinking of the Phoenix in U12, is no longer here.

That’s the worst… Akechi.

Where’s the achievement?

>>59

Burned the brain of the baseball uncle.

In sports, luck is just as important as skill…

When I read volume 8, it seems like I’m standing out in Aya’s class… the only one who talks to me is Ariga.

>>66

Girls

>>74

It turned into a one-shot story, but A is quite experienced with women, isn’t he?

It’s bad that Natsuo quit baseball just because his newborn sister is weak, his mother has cancer, and his grandfather has dementia.

>>67

At that point, it was just a shift in attitude to seriously engage in baseball.

Akechi’s words clearly changed my personality.

>>67

It is a socially-conscious work that delves into the issue of young caregivers.

What would happen if a lion mixed in with a gathering of cats?

Am I the same as these guys? There’s also a possibility that I might reject going to Yokohama, and there’s a chance that my family relationship could worsen and I might end up going to Gunma.

The future is bright.

Aya should let the woman be a samurai.

A suddenly became emotional and made Tokio cry, you’ve really changed…

>>75

It’s all that Akechi’s fault.

The Sin of Diamonds

Since entering the professional arena, Ayasegawa’s personality has been so bad that he even fights with hecklers.

From Yamato’s perspective, it’s completely shocking how A has changed.

The discussion about the pitcher who absolutely cannot lose will come up next, and they’ll say it’s okay to support Yamato because he’s weak.

>>79

I talked with Ayase River before the match.

>>91

How the truth spoken by Akechi will affect the situation…

Alright! It’s piping hot chick grilled!

There was nothing good about playing baseball.

When the relatively strong-willed young life cries, the uncle’s diamond also becomes shiny.

Talent is not contributing at all to improving the environment, and I’m becoming a reverse type protagonist.

Ayai was great when she was happily talking with Yamato.

>>88

Don’t pick on Yamato too much, okay? (laugh)

>>92

Me?

The second place can only suffer losses.

In the end, Iga didn’t end up being the catcher, and it seems that teaming up with Togo is the true route of history after all…

Is it really interesting to read a manga where boys like this only end up unhappy…?

>>94

Reading this manga and finding it interesting is somehow similar to getting depressedly aroused by NTR works.

>>94

Boys can find happiness through effort and friendship, which can be enjoyed in other interesting mangas.

Let’s enjoy our misfortune!

>>175

Don’t get emotional.

It’s so ironic that the team was doing well when I was complaining about not being able to pitch due to growing pains (a big lie).

>>99

Say something, Iga.

>>100

Because for the others, they don’t understand A’s position at all.

Ordinary people probably can’t understand being made a villain due to the overwhelming difference in talent, and no matter what, they are likely to side with Tokio.

It’s not like I understand A to a certain extent just because of a little sore.

>>102

This is the part of the achievement.

If it’s a one-shot, I wonder how it will go without any enemies on any stage as we progress like this.

>>104

Aya was struck by Yamato, whom she met for the first time during her little period, and her mental state was already complete at that point, so it’s clearly a different route from the one-shot.

>>111

It worked out well that everything other than Yamato became invisible.

But the atmosphere of A standing on the mound is really amazing.

It seems like only someone with the strength and strong-willed nature of Momo would be able to get along with Aya, who has reached A rank.

If A had thought, “Baseball is a team game where you win as a team even just once! I couldn’t have won alone!” things would have been different.

Is the Tsubaki team also going to kick the corpses from the massacre…?

Iga is too much of a decoration now.

To A, who cannot stand at the same viewpoint as anyone else, Togo’s insults hit smoothly…

Instead of just throwing out logical arguments,

I wonder if I wouldn’t have cried if it were something like “Don’t get in my way too much, you weaklings.”

>>119

In that case, Hide will probably say something and in the end, Aya is likely to deliver a logical punch.

Even the directors can’t control their fathers, so there’s no way HIDE can do it…

What if Mayo-san also starts to become toxic?

I want to play team sports, but it’s wrong that I can almost win by myself in baseball.

If you want to be chosen as my bargaining chip despite not being able to score a single point, then show it with your attitude, you worthless scum, says Dark Ayasegawa.

If I were told that thanks to you guys A, everyone can go to Yokohama, I would feel like I might fall apart.

>>127

You did it, Tokiwo! Your course has been decided!

>>128

We’re the only ones at a loss, aren’t we?

>>127

Look!

I took care of you, so be happy.

Stop it, I don’t understand the meaning of that, and it makes me laugh.

>>129

Can you stop hitting me with logical arguments?

The panel where it says “Don’t get emotional” expresses the temperature difference really well…

If you had a baseball brain at a level where you could say, “If you’re frustrated, try hitting my pitch…”

You should have Bappy do it at Ayase River.

Have there been any people you’ve defeated until now?

>>140

Originally, Yamato was supposed to be that way.

Are you interested in seeing my classmates who are now starting to fawn over Ayase River, after being tempted by studying in Yokohama?

I’ve been made out to be the bad guy even though I haven’t done anything, so I just want to behave badly on purpose to minimize the damage… A feels sorry for me too…

>>142

I need to adjust my personality according to my abilities…

If we get along well, it wouldn’t get tangled like this.

I want to believe that…

>>143

I guess it’s because I didn’t go bowling after all.

>>147

It’s really Natsuo’s death that was unfortunate, isn’t it?

>>151

Tracing the causes makes it seem like everything is bad.

>>147

At the moment she crushed Natsufu, Aya chose to take responsibility and become the ace of the Phoenix.

It’s nice to obscure the theme by labeling it as emotional or something similar.

Thanks for helping me decide my future along with everyone else in our generation, Aya! I’m sorry for everything until now!! It’ll all work out, right!?

>>149

I will forgive you.

But I wonder if this ball will allow it.

>>155

The ball likes Ayaka, but it seems like it doesn’t like you guys.

This work really isn’t suited for animation or drama adaptation…

>>150

Shall I do something like forgetting, with my pubic hair?

Aya… Even though you silently became a punching bag when I said unreasonable things, you’ve changed…

For the team…

>>156

I wonder what I was really trying to say.

>>162

It’s Jinmi, right?

I may not be a diamond, but this atmosphere feels very familiar.

Little Phoenix chick…!

>>161

It’s starting to sound like a story about an ugly duckling.

Just say it, Hide.

Since Jinmi quit because of you, the team is in a tough spot.

Strong talent? We’ll make the most out of it for our careers!

A mentality like that is essential.

If we’re talking about likes and dislikes, I think we all dislike Ayase River… or rather, I don’t think there are any of our generation who like it while playing baseball.

If you’re really a Phoenix, then it shouldn’t matter how much you’re hurt, right?

If you’re a senior, Ureshi-san is waiting with bated breath.

>>170

Just because Aya comes, it doesn’t mean you’ll get stronger, okay?

Mayu, please do something for me.

>>171

Me?

It’s bad that the others are coasting on defense but can’t make an appeal with their hitting.

>>172

“Because of the restrictions, I haven’t had a chance to bat!”

The meeting continues…!!

If you know that crying is effective, then shouldn’t Ayasegawa have cried first?

>>177

I love this because it’s so psychopathic.

>>177

If I start saying things like this while crying, I would become a serious problem.

It’s not about Ayase River, you idiot!!!!

I remembered there is U15, but can we have fun here…?

A has changed.

What should I have actually done…

>>180

Team A should just boldly focus on batting and make defensive appeals in games where Ayaka doesn’t perform.

You don’t have to do any defensive practice, just focus on batting practice.

Clearly, Mr. Akechi is having the most negative impact.

(I don’t want Ayasegawa to get involved when they’re trying to take it with such underhanded means…)

You’re using the wrong piece, Ayasegawa.

Let’s go to Blue Lock and play soccer.

You don’t have to stand out, really.

I decided my course through barter.

A playing baseball alone has an overwhelming contribution, and no matter how many other weak players fail, the contribution of A outweighs it.

I wonder if Shohei Ohtani was mentioned in a similar way to A.

In the first place, telling someone not to be so successful is just envy, and if they respond with a valid argument, there’s nothing you can do about it.

The U15 level is easier than U12 because the top players from other countries, specifically the United States, do not show up due to their system.

If Ayato is overused and broken, then at that point, the future of Phoenix will be over.
