Previous	Event Story
Muku Uwah… Everyone in the Spring troupe is cool… Kumon They were sparkling, and looked like real idols! Tenma … Kumon Tenma-san? Do you perhaps have a stomachache? Tenma No, it’s not like tha—. Yuki …Could it be you’re nervous? Tenma I’m not! Misumi Tenma, you’re fidgeting around~? Kazunari Ahaha. Izumi —Summer troupe, are you ready? Kazunari It’s here! Come on Tenten, do that! Tenma I understand! You guys, huddle up! Misumi Ye~s! Muku Yeah! Kumon As expected, group huddles fire us up, huh~! Tenma …Ahem. —You guys, make noise and make them laugh with all your hearts! Summer troupe Ohh! Tenma Alright… Let’s go, Summer troupe! To our fired up summer—! Summer troupe OH—!! Izumi (The Sakura High baseball club that unfortunately lost to a powerhouse school in the third round of the regional tournament… Are having a rematch as a practise match.) Inoue “Those guys still haven’t come?” Akiyama “They were saying the trains are running late but…” Washimiya “Geez, at such an important time…” Akiyama “Ah, they finally came—” Kiichi “What’s this? What’s that? What’s everyone doing???” Yoshimaru “Kii-chan, an interesting thing is rolling~!” Kiichi “It really is!” Santa “Wait, this is strange! There shouldn’t be this kind of location in a place like this. It must be an enemy trap.” Kiichi “Is what you say, but who’s the enemy?” Yoshimaru “Right now we’re still suspended from work, and we’re off duty~.” Santa “T-That is so but if you’ve noticed, us being in a place like this is strange no matter how you think of it!” Izumi (What appeared in the schoolyard, Were ninjas who looked like Uehara, Enomoto, and Ono.) Akiyama “Uehara? And that’s Enomoto and Ono, right?” Inoue “What’s with their get-up?” Washimiya “Hurry up and change into your uniforms!” Kiichi “Huh!? Hyuga!?” Yoshimaru “Sae and the young master are here~.” Santa “No, those people are…" Washimiya “HURRY UP! The practise match is starting!” Kiichi “Y-yes!?” Yoshimaru “What’s a uniform~???” Izumi (Kiichi, Yoshimaru and Santa, the three introduce themselves as ninjas of Iga.) Akiyama “N-ninjas…?” Inoue “Oi, what’s the meaning of this. This practise match isn’t a match we can win by joking around like that.” Akiyama “No but, Uehara and them really look like they don’t understand.” Washimiya “Ha~. Whatever, even if it’s these ninjas, anything is fine. Appear in the practise match for now.” Akiyama “Washimiya-san, seriously!?” Washimiya “It can’t be helped, right? Cause right now there’s no other members.” Inoue “That’s a joke, right? There’s no way we can play together with these guys who don’t understand what's going on.” “Our opponent is the regional championship winning school, aren’t they?” Kiichi “What are we supposed to do for a practise match?” Washimiya “For now, it’s fine if you catch the ball that comes flying.” Yoshimaru “Heh~, doesn’t that seem interesting~.” Kiichi “I’ll do it, I’ll do it!” Santa “What are you accepting so quickly, you two!” Inoue “That’s right. Generally speaking, there’s no way you can do this so easil—.” Washimiya “IT’S FINE, JUST GO!” Inoue “—uuh.” Izumi (So then being full of only anxiety, the practise match starts…) Umpire “Play ball!” Washimiya “Keep your eye on the ball!” Kiichi “What’s a ball?” Yoshimaru “Isn’t it that round sphere~?” Kiichi “Yosshi, you’re amazin’—!” Inoue “Are those guys going to be ok…” Akiyama “I-in the meantime, I have to pitch a shutout.” Inoue “Our last hope is only you. So I’m counting on you, Akiyama.” Akiyama “Ughh, somehow this sudden pressure… is making me get a stomachache.” Batter “—" *hits* Akiyama “Ah—!” Kiichi “It came it came it came it came it came it came! Catching this is a good thing!?” Washimiya “IT’S FINE, JUST CATCH IT!” Kiichi “Okay~!” *jumps* Akiyama “Woah, he jumped!?” Inoue “What was that height just now…” Washimiya “Heh, he did it.” Izumi (Kiichi jumps up high and catches the ball effortlessly… Kazunari-kun's body seems lighter than usual!) Yoshimaru “I wanna do it too~! Next time over here, 'kay!” Inoue “It’s not that kind of game!” Batter “—!” *hits* Akiyama “Ah, it was hit again—!” Kiichi “Yosshi!” Yoshimaru “Leave it to me~!” *jumps around* Akiyama “!?” Inoue “What was that!? He spun in the air!?” Akiyama “Ninja…?” Inoue “For real…?” Washimiya “Isn’t it great? Maybe they’ll be useful.” Izumi (The Sakura High baseball club blocks the opponent’s batting lineup one after another through the duo’s skills and jumps that surpasses those of human beings.) *jumps around* Kiichi “Hiyah!” Yoshimaru “Hoi!” Kiichi “Yosshi, as expected!” Yoshimaru “We did it, Kii-chan!” Inoue “What was that movement!?” Izumi (The ninja group showed a well coordinated play. So now is Sakura High’s attack—) Washimiya “Next, it’ll be good if you hit the ball using this stick.” Kiichi “Hmmm.” Yoshimaru “Okay~.” Santa “Or rather, why are we doing something like this…” Washimiya “YES, THERE IT GOES, THERE IT GOES!” Santa “—” Umpire “Strike!” Akiyama “As expected, batting is no good after all, huh?” Inoue “Isn’t that obvious? Geez, these guys who don’t know baseball appearing in the practise game is too reckless.” Kiichi “Hmmm, it’s better if I hit that thing?” Yoshimaru “Good luck, Kii-chan!” Kiichi “Leave it to me, Yosshi!” “—Hiyah!” *hits* Akiyama “—He hit it!” Inoue “What is that form…! It’s weird! Why the heck did he twirl around three times for no reason!” Akiyama “But he extended!” Washimiya “RUN!” Kiichi “Eh!? To where!?” Akiyama “Over there! That place with the closest white mark!” Kiichi “White mark? White mar—… Ah, it’s there!” Washmiya “Step there and stand by!” Kiichi “Acknowledged!” Inoue “This is nuts…” Yoshimaru “Then, I’ll try my best too~.” Kiichi “Yosshi, good luck—!” Yoshimaru “Humhumhu—m!” *hits* Akiyama “It’s a homerun!” Inoue “ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? How does it get hit by him just spinning round and round like that!?” Kiichi “Yosshi, you’re amazin’—!” Yoshimaru “I’ll also run~!” Washimiya “Before that, the guy before, step on the white marks in order and make your way back!” Kiichi “Me? Make my way back while stepping on the marks?” Washimiya “THE GUY AFTER TOO, HURRY UP!” Yoshimaru “I don’t really understand this, but run, run~!” Izumi (Misumi-kun is in perfect form, and Muku-kun’s movements are good too!) The results of Kazunari-kun’s special training is coming out as well!) (The ninja group explodes the batting lineup despite their absurd form, And piles up points by stealing bases with a speed that can’t be seen. And then—) Umpire “Game set!” Inoue “No way, we really won…” Akiyama “That’s a surprise, huh…” Washmiya “The ninjas are useful.” Kiichi “What, it’s over already?” Yoshimaru “I wanted to play more~.” Kiichi “Right! It was fun!” Santa “How are you two are so easygoing!” “What should we do, going astray in a place that we don’t even understand, And if we’re not able to return home to the village…” Kiichi “It’s fine, we can play baseball forever!” Yoshimaru “Yeah, yeah~.” Washimiya “If you have no place to go, our baseball club will take you in so don’t worry.” Akiyama “Washimiya-san, seriously!?” Washimiya “With their physical capabilities, they can aim to go pro too. Koshien is no different.” Inoue “You really will use any means necessary, huh?” Izumi (Akiyama, Inoue and Washimiya suddenly wake up on the bench. The practise match that should’ve been finished hasn’t started yet…) Enomoto “Sorry, I’m late!” Ono “Huh? You three were sleeping???” Uehara “The practise match is already starting though.” Inoue “Enomoto, Ono, Uehara…” Akiyama “They reverted back…?” Inoue “The practise match is also starting now?” Akiyama “So everything was a dream…?” Enomoto “What’s wrong, you three? Half asleep? Washimiya “What about the ninjas?” Enomoto “Huh????” Uehara “Ninjas?” Washimiya “...As a punishment for being late, do ninja training.” Ono “Why!?” Izumi (The curtain falls in the middle of this mysterious, half dream-like atmosphere—) (Their movements were pretty and their tsukkomi was well executed…! From here on is the revue part where they change costumes!) Tenma Thank you for coming today for our important fan meeting. In appreciation, us Summer troupe will deliver a new challenge!
