What are you saying!?

I don't know for sure,

but I think he has an abnormality in his body.

Eh?

An abnormality in his body?

That energetic kid?

Yes.

I am 99% sure.

Hideyoshi?

Hey...

Don't sleep in the locker room!

Even if you grew taller, a kid stays a kid.

You fall asleep anywhere in no time-

Hey!

It seems he sometimes suffers from strange migraine-like attacks.

And the interval between these attacks is getting shorter every day.

What did you say!?

Before he came here, he was living on the streets.

It's possible that he caught some kind of disease during that time.

Grandpa!

What is it, Cha-che?

H-Hideyoshi is...

Are you all right, Cha-che?

You bastard...

I won't forgive you!

H-He's fine, Coach!

There's no need to worry.

Well, yes...

Serves you right!

Lazuli is more pumped up than usual.

He's probably aiming to be in tomorrow's starting lineup.

We're playing the Swallows! They're just a hick team!

Okay! One hour break!

Hey!

What happened to Hideyoshi?

Playing hooky?

He said his head hurt.

A cold, maybe?

Worrying about that guy is just a waste of time.

Ouch...

What's going on, damn it?

If my head hurts this often, I-

At first, it only happened once a week or so,

but it happens all the time now.

At this rate, I won't be able to play.

And then-

Shit! Here it comes again!

And then...

all my hard work will be for nothing...

All of it...

Somebody please help me...

You must listen to the teachings of an ace.

Huh?

DT...?

You're awake?

You...

Why?

Didn't I write, "Don't disturb"?

Ivan, what are you...?

What are you planning to do with that?

A special medicine for Hideyoshi's cold.

In that case, I've already made one, so it's okay.

It's a headache medicine we pass on from generation to generation.

This will work.

It's a medicine from my village.

Like that would work!

It works!

Don't struggle, lizard.

Excuse me, but can you leave the kitchen for a second, please?

It's no good.

If the time between my headaches continues to get shorter,

and it gets to a point where I don't improve,

my chance to make tons of money is gone.

That's true...

I can't heal you, but at least listen to me.

What did you plan to do with all that money?

The money?

Well, it's not like there's anything I want to buy...

I don't think parents want to see their child if he's a filthy street rat.

They don't want to see a child who uses street basketball to get some adult's money.

But if I become super rich thanks to basketball,

I think they'll come to see me.

At that point, they'll understand that I'm their child.

What about your parents' faces?

I don't know.

So this is the only thing your parents left you?

But you know...

Hideyoshi...

The truth is, you're...

The members of the Earth Team have just arrived.

Regarding tonight's game against the Swallows...

E-Excuse me?

What about the Swallows!?

For us, the Minor League isn't a concern at all!

We have nothing but the Intergalactic League in our heads!

I don't care which players the Swallows have!

Idiot! Will you stop!?

Underestimating us...

He's too cocky for an Earthling!

Coach, just leave it to me.

I'll crush this guy.

Yeah, crush him so he can never talk big again.

Having arrived at the airport...

I will now announce tonight's starting lineup.

Center: Mo.

Power forward: Ivan.

Small forward: Han.

Shooting guard: Maru.

Point guard: DT.

That's all.

Hey, what about me?

Your cold has not completely healed yet.

You'd better rest tonight.

As Theo says, just take it easy for tonight.

Don't mess with me, I-

See, you shouldn't talk.

Hideyoshi!

Coach.

I'm in good shape too.

That's really rare for you to speak up.

It's all right.

You'll have your turn for sure.

I'm looking forward to it too.

Damn.

Where is the one who was talking so big?

I don't care which players the Swallows have!

If he's afraid and can't even sit on the bench, he's basically admitted his defeat.

All right! That's the way!

It's started, boss!

I don't want to watch it.

I can't play anyway...

We don't want to watch a game where you don't play either.

Right?

Y-Yeah.

It's Julius!

What!?

For the Sonics, who have extended the ace record,

which is your rival among the teams you've met?

There are none.

Honestly, we don't have any real opponents in this Minor League.

The Earth Team is fiercely chasing you,

but what do you think about the player Hideyoshi?

Hideyoshi?

Do they have a player called that?

Shit!

That Julius bastard, making fun of me...

I can't stay like this!

I'll play in that game after all!

Boss!

Boss!

Come on now!

What is this!?

The Swallows fans all seem surprised...

They looked down on the Earth Team.

It's too bad, but tonight looks like a blowout.

We don't know yet.

The Swallows always start out slowly.

Besides...

That player hasn't entered the game yet.

Indeed.

Maru!

Maru, nice shot!

Hey Swallows, what are you doing!?

Stop fooling around!

Calm down, calm down!

Cha-che, it's your turn.

Okay!

Hey, it's a girl!

And she's still a child!

Give your best, Cha-che!

Leave it to me, Maru!

What an uproar!

That's true!

Everybody is focusing on you!

Wave your hand!

Hi!

Damn, sending in that kid...

Maybe the Swallows feel like they are being insulted.

If their pride is hurt just by that, then that's a good thing for us.

Cha-che will tear them apart with her play.

Why?

Why a little girl?

Damn, underestimating us...

All right!

T-That was an awesome long shot...

Her body is small but it's just like a spring!

Her basketball sense is outstanding!

Maybe she's some kind of prodigy.

But she can't shoot like that indefinitely.

It's physically intense, after all.

Don't be careless! Mark them closely!

There!

Our strategy is a success, owner!

Yeah.

When Cha-che attracts the mark, it opens an empty space,

making attacking easier for DT and Han!

What?

Damn!

Where does she get all that strength?

That Cha-che! She scored three times!

She seems to be in good shape!

Can you go?

Oui.

"Oui" is French, and translates to "yes".

His hands are... so long!

And he's very tall too!

The surprises are just beginning!

So that's Apilu, the Swallows' secret weapon?

He finally entered.

Apilu! Give your best!

Crush that girl!

Here's a chance!

Don't get cocky!

Don't be so full of yourself, little missy!

W-What was that?

Are you gay?

I'm a woman.

Huh?

Yeah, a woman.

Wha-

Don't get cocky, you ugly hag!

Ugly hag, you said!?

A-A woman?

That's impossible!

What's that?

You are so cool!

Let us put an end to it!

Leave it to me!

This is not a world where little girls should come!

You're a woman too...

I'm a man!

Wha-

W-Which one is it!?

Hey, boss!

Please wait for us, boss!

W-What...

is that guy?

A-pi-lu?

A-pi-lu?

A-pi-lu?

Eh? Isn't that a foul?

Almost, but Apilu's just blocking her.

Cha-che!

B-Boss!

Damn!

Gotta hurry...

Owner!

Yeah.

Let's change her out right now!

Do you get it?

This is not a world where little girls should come!

Lazuli, it's up to you now!

Go, Lazuli!

I'm counting on you, Lazuli.

To think that was a woman too...

Damn!

W-What are you doing!?

Lazuli?

You piss me off.

I'll beat you.

Really?

Are you that little girl's lover?

That's not it.

But you have fallen for her, right?

What's good in her?

D-Damn you, Lazuli!

What did you dare do to my sweet granddaughter?

You're fired! Fired!

Owner, please calm down!

Huh?

Apilu, the first woman in history who played in the Intergalactic League.

You're not going to try for the Intergalactic League again?

Huh?

I've always wanted to beat you.

Me?

Yeah.

And why would that be?

Because I'm a woman too.

What was that?

A woman!?

Yeah...

She surely had breasts...

And I like you.

Just you wait!

I don't care if you're Apilu or a duck, but I'll beat you!

Editor's note: Hideyoshi makes a pun between Apilu's name and the word for duck, ahiru.

Quack?
