What's this "You'll win for sure" stuff?

As almost always, he's just too selfish.

Aren't you a loudmouth!?

And by the way, whose kitty are you?

It's my kitty.

DT?

Where are you?

Can't you sleep?

It's better you forget about him.

It's not like that.

And what about you? What are you doing over there?

This is stupid.

See ya. I'm going to bed.

DT.

You don't think he'll come back, do you?

Probably not.

I don't want that.

It seems a little too wishful, but it's a rather decent proposal.

I'm in luck.

Looks like this midget may have some use left in him.

Very well. I'll hold on to it.

What? You'll hold on...?

I'll rewrite it later and submit it to my superior.

Under my name.

That'll make it easier for this project to be approved.

What? U-Um...

Have you ever thought of the risk behind keeping an individual like you,

who doesn't bring any profit to our company?

The fact is that you're only able to be here because I, your direct superior, am protecting you.

If you forget that, there'll be problems.

You! What have you done!?

I quit! I've had enough of being your shadow man!

You! Do you understand what you're doing!?

Hey!

Wait!

The starters will be:

DT,

Maru,

Mo,

Lazuli,

Rose.

That's all.

I'm counting on you all.

All right, let's go!

Looks like the boss really isn't here.

After all, maybe he won't come back... anymore.

Shut up.

Why are you angry?

Good.

They're definitely Intergalactic Major Leaguers.

The pressure they have on their backs as the ones who should be winning must be great.

Yes, way to go, DT!

Go! Lazuli!

I'll change the flow with this!

All right!

Keep it up!

DT's really into this.

Yeah.

But they don't have their regular offensive trump card today.

Hideyoshi...

What?

He got past him!

DT's pushing himself.

He's desperate.

DT...

Think I'll let you!?

What's wrong? Scared of us?

Afraid of losing to Earthlings?

Yes!

All right, we've turned it around!

They're double teaming him!

Wow, he's so amazing!

Is he really an Earthling?

DT.

We are here, too.

Don't try to stand out alone.

Yeah.

This is good. Keep it up.

It's an easy win.

Yeah, the Sonics are probably stronger.

We can win.

You guys can do it.

Trust in your own strength.

Don't worry. There's no one who'll destroy the game today.

Look! They've only got DT!

Mark him no matter what!

What?

DT!

Foul on number nine!

That was a horrible noise.

You did that on purpose!

Looks like it's dislocated.

That foul was flagrant!

He should be kicked out! Kicked out!

This won't do...

Han!

Are you ready?

Anytime you please.

Switching player!

DT! DT!

DT! DT!

Hey, you're making too much of a fuss.

Bathroom stop.

Hey, DT!

DT! Open the door, DT!

Damn it.

Ouch!

All right, it's fixed.

I don't recommend rough treatment like that.

You're...

Hey.

Don't "hey" me.

Why are you here?

Good, we still have two minutes left. We'll make a comeback.

Damn it, at this rate...

Boss.

Time out!

Where's Hideyoshi?

Who knows?

But it'll be an easy win.

Gyuma, you shouldn't be here, but watch us closely.

The birth of a legend.

We'll make the legend for you.

DT!

They're tied now! DT!

DT!

I'll get going now.

I'll meet you in the Intergalactic Major League.

Yeah.

How's your shoulder?

We need to treat you right away.

I'm fine.

Damn, they already tied it up, eh?

They're so weak without me.

Now I'll just be a sec with the toilet.

DT, are you all right?

Wow, wow. Look at that.

Earth's pillar-like point guard, DT, is back!

But it's a little too late.

It's almost a sure thing that the Killer-Lips are going to win.

It's looking grave for the Earth Team!

Just watch.

DT!

To have trouble over these kind of guys...

Earthlings are so slow.

But if we try, we can make it to the Intergalactic Major League.

Tarius!

Yeah!

Yay!

All right!

Under ten seconds left!

Stop the clock!

Ivan! Foul him!

Thanks.

Stop him!

Two points aren't enough. Give it to him.

Damn it. And I was planning on getting fouled.

Oh man.

Here's a question for Maru.

What did that shot you took with one second remaining feel like?

Nothing at all.

What?

Nothing... at all?

Nothing... at all?

It looked like that ball was rejecting any kind of outer influence.

I was able to abide to its flow.

Wasn't it your influence that got the ball off your hand?

No, to me, it was just like breathing.

At least for that moment.

To move the ball by five millimeters to put it on the shorter course...

That's all it would've taken for the moment to break...

and for the silence to break.

It was a pass that didn't allow any of that to happen.

That one second...

It was as if I was inside "dream time."

I see.

And with your amazing three-point shot, you made it to overtime,

but did it feel like you guys were on a roll now?

No, the Earth Team was getting exhausted.

Overtime was going totally at the Killer-Lips' pace, wasn't it?

Yes, it was.

"If we can't beat the Killer-Lips, the lowest ranked team in the Intergalactic Major League,

then we don't have the right to play in that league."

Right when I started to think that...

There he was.

There was one man.

Hey!

Get your acts straight, Earthlings!

If you're going to lose to that lot, today's the end of the Earth Team.

I had a bad feeling, you know?

What do you mean?

I had a premonition that he'd put on a show.

And your premonition was right on the money, wasn't it?

You've gone missing and made everyone worry.

Considering that, you sound rather stuck-up.

Hey!

Is your head all right, Hideyoshi?

Hey!

Watch closely, Cha-che.

Something's strange.

I'm on you.

You won't be able to do a thing!

Go, Boss! Go, Boss!

He was crying.

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi! Hideyoshi!

It seemed that the overtime was a one-man show by Hideyoshi-kun.

It looked like he was getting larger after every play he made.

Were we hallucinating?

Hideyoshi-kun scored all the points in overtime by himself, didn't he?

Basketball isn't a game played alone.

Don't forget that there are those who assist,

and there are those who set a screen, and that's how points are scored.

However,

it's absolutely true that Hideyoshi led us to victory.

He guided us to victory.

Until the very end...

In tears...

And then, Hideyoshi disappeared.

They won.

It's incredible.

Well done. Well done, Earth Team.

I threw out my job.

But I have no regrets.

They were able to do it.

Then so can I.

Old man.

You! Why are you here?

Why!?

We'll withdraw ourselves from next season's Intergalactic Major League.

Withdraw?

Is that because Hideyoshi is gone?

Why are you quitting, Yoshimune-san?

I'm not quitting.

It's just postponing.

What?

Postpone?

After one year.

After one year, we won't let anyone complain about us.

All you guys do is criticize.

And one more thing.

I'll give you guys some big news.

Other than the Intergalactic Minor and Major Leagues, there are talks to create another league.

Intergalactic Junior League?

That's right.

Well, it's basically an Intergalactic League for kids.

Withdraw from the Intergalactic Major League, and now found an Intergalactic Junior League?

Geez. I can't understand Earthlings.

You know very well yourself that this isn't a game.

The Intergalactic Major League is a professional sport show business on the greatest scale,

and the audience rate's the highest amongst all other galactic professional sports.

The Earthlings have started to make their way up here,

but I don't want you guys making any more mess.

Or, that's what I would have said in the past.

I've had enough of your selfish acts,

but, right now, I can understand.

There are basketball elites who go to competitive high schools and colleges.

Meanwhile, there are children who live on the street and have never gone to school.

They all just want to play basketball.

That hero can be born anywhere.

You're talking much more romantically than usual.

It's not like I'm speaking to conform to your style, Mr. Yoshimune.

The seed of money does not lie only within money.

That's all I'm saying.

To be the champion of the minor league two years in a row.

And then participate in the Intergalactic Major League.

That's what the old man's thinking.

But, can you, I wonder? In the harsh minor league.

If we can't, then I don't think we have the right to participate in the Intergalactic Major League.

You might be right, but...

Considering how Mr. Yoshimune forced himself into the minor league, he sure has become subdued.

It's meant to be grabbed by this hand.

Dreams aren't something to be bought with money.

No. Absolutely not.

I can't accept that.

Can you imagine the Earth Team winning the Intergalactic Minor League without you, DT?

Old man.

The Intergalactic League is beyond the reach of Earthlings.

That's accepted as fact.

But who's going to prove that?

What's your point?

The Intergalactic League is impossible for Earthlings.

Only Earthlings can prove that.

If the Earthlings themselves believe that, then eventually, the accepted fact becomes a reality.

Someone has to say that that's not true.

For example, a Goran that has been fooling others into thinking that he was an Earthling.

Is that such a bad thing?

What? DT's gone to a tryout for the Intergalactic Major League?

All by himself?

I'm sorry. I couldn't stop him.

It was for the best.

The Intergalactic Minor League must not be enough for him.

What?

But if we catch up to him...

If we make it to the Intergalactic Major League...

When that happens, we'll fight him.

Both of them.

Both of them?

So?

After finding out that he was half Goran,

did you have the motivation to face your best rival, said to be the only one without an equal?

Did that change at all?

Though, he's disappeared, so I guess it doesn't matter anymore.

I wasn't offended by him because he's an Earthling.

Whether they are Earthling or Goran, offensive bastards are offensive.

That bit doesn't change, does it?

Also...

He'll be back.

I won't forgive him for running away with victory in hand.

"He was really shocked."

Hey, were you listening to what I said?

Ah, excuse me.

Boss! Boss!

Boss! Boss!

You forgot this! You forgot this!

You forgot this! You forgot this!

He's grown big behind my back.

Boss!

You're being called, Boss.

Keep it down.

Managers should stay back.
