Ace of Diamond: The Pitcher Returns

It's April 1 again, and it's time for freshmen to enter school again.

To Sawamura's surprise, the news that the school was going to be merged has not come, and everything is calm. I don't know if it's because his own level of insight is not enough, or because Principal Takada's camouflage skills are superb.

In short, when Sawamura and the principal applied for activity funds in the new school year, they did not see any abnormality. The stingy Principal Takata also gave Sawamura 50,000 oceans for the first time. This money, for those youth baseball players, that is, one person, half a year's study expenses.

But for Akagi, this is the Akagi Middle School baseball team. For one semester, the entire team's activities cost. Spread it over a dozen people, and one person is only a little over a thousand a month. This money is too short to eat steamed buns. (The price and exchange rate are 1:16, that is, 1 RMB is exchanged for 16 yen, and more than 1,000 is equivalent to less than 100 yuan.)

"You can't all count on the school."

Seeing Sawamura's ugly face, Takata also knew that he had given the school's great hero, the top four teams in the county, to approve such a small amount of activity funding, which is a bit unreasonable. But the school was really difficult, and he couldn't help it.

"With your strength, you can go to those corporate shops to get sponsorship. I think there will be many companies willing to sponsor you."

In the summer competition, Akagi made a miracle by reaching the top four in Nagano Prefecture.

For the Bunchen Cup, the Kanto region will start the preliminaries in the fall, and the Kanto Conference and the National Competition will be held in the spring. At the time of the autumn preliminaries, the summer competition had just passed for two months, and everyone thought that Akagi, who had been exposed by Tenryuji Temple, would be in a tough fight.

Maybe in the second round, maybe in the third round, they will definitely be eliminated.

The surprising result was that all members of Akagi Middle School seemed to be reborn within two months. Although their defenses were not perfect, they were already decent.

All the way through, they even reached the semi-finals for the second time.

Until they met Nagano Metropolitan High School in the semifinals, the two sides had a wonderful pitcher after the battle. Akagi lost to Nagano Metropolitan Middle School 1:2 and was eliminated.

By this time, even people who don't know much about baseball know that Akagi's rise is imminent.

Akagi, who can already compete with Nagano Metropolitan in the autumn competition, will surely create a miracle this summer.

After the long winter break, Akagi was not idle either. Although they can't go on an expedition, many schools come here to play practice games with Akagi. In fifteen practice games during the winter break, Akagi won all of them. Victory over many Kanto tyrants, and even national-level teams.

Since then, Akagi became famous.

Although he has not yet performed in large-scale events such as the national or Kanto Games. But Sawamura's name has spread among the top players in the middle school.

"Baseball Boys" also elevated Sawamura from the third echelon of the next-generation talent list to the second echelon, and believes that Sawamura is the leader of the next generation of middle school baseball after the Twelve Heavenly Kings.

And Fengxiang, as Chicheng's reputation spread, Fengxiang was also selected into the list for the first time. In Nagano Prefecture, a total of four teams have people in the rankings, and the other teams are all alone.

Haruka Nanami from Tenryu-ji Temple, Mari from Nagano Metropolitan Government, Matsumoto from Dabei Middle School, and Sawamura from Akagi.

Originally, Nagano Prefecture accounted for four of the 100 contestants nationwide, but now it has become five! This ratio, which used to be very high nationwide, has now gone even further and has jumped to fifth place.

Second only to Tokyo, Kanagawa, Osaka and Shizuoka prefectures.

Of course, Feng Xiang can be selected, which is different from Sawamura, a complete grassroots. After all, he was once the main catcher of the national runner-up. Although it was only a primary school thing, the national runner-up was the national runner-up. This is very helpful for him to enter the list.

I really don't know if I don't see it, I was startled when I saw it. I didn't feel anything at first, but people were surprised to find out that Akagi Middle School, which had no competition experience, actually had two top players in the country.

And these two are not in vain, they have proved their strength through game after game.

Fighting for the fourth place in the country, Tianlong Temple Middle School, lost by two points. Nagano Metropolitan High School, one of the top eight in Kanto, fought twice, and won one and lost one, and did not suffer. During the practice competition, many famous tyrants in the country were sacked.

One hundred people may seem like a lot, but you must know that there are not only people from the softball league, but also junior baseball players from the hardball league. Excluding these junior baseball players, there are probably not even fifty players in the Softball League.

These less than fifty people were scattered in more than 40 competition areas and more than 8,000 teams. On average, more than 160 teams can be assigned to one.

And Akagi took up two of them himself. Teams like them in the whole country can be counted with one slap.

Looking at it this way, Akagi is so powerful!

With the announcement of these news, everyone is more optimistic about Akagi. There are even many people who say that this summer, Akagi will completely break the tacit understanding that the three kings of Nagano Prefecture monopolize the number of entries in the Kanto Conference.

Now in Nagano Prefecture, Akagi has impressed everyone with his efforts last summer and autumn. Now both the fans and the media have regarded them as the three kings of Nagano.

I believe that in the summer of Nagano, there will be a round of extremely exciting competitions.

Principal Takada also knew this, so he told Sawamura to ask for sponsorship. Now there must be many companies willing to help Akagi ~www.wuxiamtl.com~, of course Sawamura knows. In fact, there are many companies contacting Sawamura now, but the prices they offer are not very satisfactory to Sawamura. That is, they want to be exclusive, but they are not willing to pay too much money. The most annoying thing is that their contract requires signing in Sawamura to graduate.

Sawamura intends to lead his friends to dominate the whole country, how could he make his friends make such sacrifices just because of the mere hundreds of thousands.

He was specially recruited to Qingdao. It seems that the scholarship given for three years alone is more than a few hundred thousand.

These companies are too stingy!

"I see!"

Sawamura put away fifty thousand oceans, or five large banknotes.

Leaving the principal's office, Sawamura saw the scene of recruiting students from various clubs in the school. I have to say, I really miss it.

As for recruiting new people, the friends are very active, constantly asking Sawamura how to post advertisements and how to recruit new people. As one of the top four in Nagano Prefecture, it is conceivable that Akagi's recruiting situation must be very good this year.

Sawamura himself is not willing to recruit people. When Akagi had just become famous, there were many seniors at the same level and even freshmen who wanted to come to the Akagi baseball team, but they were all politely declined by Sawamura.

Sawamura is reluctant to recruit people. A person's energy is limited. He also has to practice himself. In addition to guiding Yamaguchi, Nakagawa and the others, they have already taken up all of Sawamura's time. It is Fengxiang and Oda who helped him. Many busy situations.

To ask him to guide others, Sawamura really doesn't have the energy.

It's just that the principal gave instructions that the baseball team would not be able to recruit people.

"Then recruit six, just six people!"

Sawamura thought, why should we find all the substitutes for a team.
