What?!
Destroy!
All right!
Iceman!
Destroy!
Basquash!
Iceman!
Nice pass-!
Huh? Tampon shop?
Championship.
And guess who it's from?
The good old OCB Commission themselves!
Didn't they ban us?
The way you guys have been cleaning up lately,
it looks like they can no longer afford not to invite you.
Everyone's telling 'em to invite Team Basquash and generating a huge fuss on the Net.
So, where are they gonna hold it?
Turbine City.
Turbine... City.

The wind...
...decides victory and defeat.
It's in the air...
This place is bustling with activity, isn't it?
Yes!
The excitement of the people waiting for the festival to begin
has spread throughout the whole town.
Whoops!
That's some wind!
The main industry in this town is the generation of wind power.
As the town itself collects the many scattered winds into one,
it results in an incredible force being unleashed.
The hubbub of city life on the wind...
The scent of the water...
But you know, for somewhere called Turpentine City, it don't smell half bad.
It's not Turpentine City.
It's Turbine City; the city of wind.
But is it really all right for us to have a match in a town that's so densely built?
It'll be fine.
This says the buildings are really tough, since they're all built to withstand hurricanes.
I dunno. Some of 'em look pretty beat already.
It's an old town.
Have you been here before, Miss Sela?
Nope, it's all new to me.
Miss Sela?
I'm gonna check things out over there.
Miss Haruka will scold you if you skip the scouting!
I'll make sure to look around!
Miss Sela!
Oh, just let her go.
Maybe she's hungry.
Don't lump her with yourself!
What?! Stupid-head!
Shut up, dingbat!
What?!
What do ya mean, "what," you overgrown pet?!
"Sela's Road"?
Hey! What are ya doing? Let's go!
Okay!
Look! It's Dunk Mask!
So it is! It's Dan JD!
There's Iceman Hotty!
Hey! What the heck?!
It's him!
What's wrong?
Oh, it's nothing.
I knew it! Now that Dan JD's here, we can really get excited!
He said it! It wouldn't be Basquash without you guys!
D-Damn right it wouldn't!
Can you write your name here?
I'm collecting everyone's autograph!
Your wish is my command.
C'mon, hurry up!
I beg your pardon.
Bel said that the blogosphere was turning upside down over this, and I guess he was right!
Huh? Mr. Iceman?
What? Did the iceberg wander off by himself somewhere too?
You guys are falling apart.
Really!
Here! Put your name and address here, please.
As expected, there are some pretty nice machines around here.
Hey, Ganz!
Yeah? What's next?
Take a look at this.
This town's really interesting.
It's got a Sela's Road, a Sela's Brook, in fact, there's "Sela's" all over the place!
Well, what do ya know.
Sela?
Mom...
So this is where you are.
Well, I didn't expect you to show your face at the house after all this time.
Master.
Seems like you've been doing well lately.
Make this one for the history books.
I don't care if you knock the town down around you.
You sure?
It's an old town.
We've got insurance. I doubt anyone will complain.
Besides, there's some pretty big bets riding on your team.
How many times must you crush something precious to me before you're satisfied?
You resemble her now.
You have no right to talk about Mom!
Do you have any idea what Mom went through after the family drove her out?!
How much pain she died in?!
All because I'm a female so I can't inherit! No other reason!
Stop right there!
Our conversation isn't over-
I'm looking forward to seeing you.
Mr. Falcon!
Those of you who are with the press, please leave.
You will be a distraction to our guests.
Don't say that!
Just one photo!
C'mon! Give us an interview with Falcon!
Please!
What a ruckus.
Nothing less for the one-and-only Falcon, though.
Mind if I borrow that?
What?
Yes?
Your wine has arrived, Mr. Falcon.
Ah, I see.
A message was delivered with it.
Iceman!
I wonder where Miss Sela and Mr. Iceman went?
Who... knows?!
That's dangerous, Mr. Dan!
Don't call me Mr. Dan!
Listen, we're not here to play around!
There's a flutter in the wind...
So fast! And precise...
This is the sound of dribbling!
Hey!
Hey, I hear Team Bigbear arrived!
Starfire too!
Let's go see!
People came here on the wind from all over the place,
ready to play on a whole new level from anyone we've faced so far...
I've got to keep that in mind.
Man, I'm sleepy.
Man, I'm starving.
Ow!
I'm surprised you managed to get in here.
Oh, that wasn't difficult.
I said I'd trade him one of your secrets.
I know something you don't!
You bastard! What did you tell him?
Does it matter?
Once the match begins, we won't have the opportunity to talk like this.
Do you want me to congratulate you for making it to the championships?
Or are you here to rant about your grudge?
It's true that I hated you.
There's no counting how many times I've killed you in my dreams.
Maybe it's better to get shoes specially made for these conditions after all...
We can just leave that stuff to the boobs.
Mr. Dan, look properly!
You're looking too hard!
Those players are big! They look strong!
Being big doesn't make you good.
I wanna eat something big!
The wind's direction, and its strength...
I think that will have a huge effect on how we play.
Silly Mr. Dan...
I've got to be the responsible one here...
What's that over there?
I can hear it.
The murmur and roar of many people.
The town's tension and expectations before the festival...
I'm sure this is where the opening ceremonies are going to be held.
And it's Dan, with a fifth lap of one minute and forty-five seconds!
Sweet! A new world record!
Mr. Dan! Do you know what you're doing?!
Incredible players have gathered here from all over the world!
They're a level up from the teams you've played so far!
We've got to investigate as much as we can!
Are you okay, Mr. Dan-
That hurt! Dammit!
No kidding!
You again, Dunk Mask!
You again, Idol Red!
It's Rouge.
You gonna sing at the opening ceremonies?
Man, sounds just like something a pop idol would do.
I am an idol.
And I'm in the middle of rehearsals right now!
What do ya mean, "three hearses tall"?
Make sense, will ya?
Rehearsals!
You can watch if you want.
I'll let you in as a special favor.
No thanks.
Do you know how much one of my fans would pay for that chance?!
I'm not one of your fans!
I am!
I... erm, I'm an Eclipse fan!
But the gauntlet has already been thrown down.
So, Mr. Dan, you and Miss Rouge should stop getting along so well with each other.
When did I ever get along with Red?!
What's gotten into him?
Who knows? He's been acting weird all day.
The gauntlet has been thrown down.
Oh, that's right! Did you hear about the prize?
I couldn't care less.
Really? I reckon it's something that would psych you up.
Rouge?
Where are you, Rouge?
Thought so!
I better go, or I'll never hear the end of it!
Well, I'll see you at the match, Dunk Mask.
Yeah, later, Idol Red!
Rouge!
Where were you?
The break ended several-
I got lost.
Dan JD, is it?
You've still got an attachment to a player who was dropped?
Why don't I let you see it too?
What a legend is.
Even though you speak so highly of him,
I've yet to see him as anything other than a wild monkey.
I see.
Then perhaps I should've made the first prize a mountain of bananas.
But the prize this time is something that he'll like nearly as much as bananas, I'm sure.
Good!
Every last one of 'em is perfect!
Miyuki!
Come here!
There's been an announcement!
What?
Hey! Let's finish up and head back already!
Yeah! I'm gonna eat you if I get any hungrier, stupid-head!
Feel free.
Hey, what's got you so riled up, anyway?
I'm not angry.
Yes you are!
I'm not angry. I'm fed up.
Huh? Fed up?
Yes, I'm fed up.
With our whole team, not just you, Mr. Dan.
Mr. Iceman and Miss Sela too...
You're all scattered everywhere!
It doesn't matter.
I'll scout out the whole town even if I have to do it by myself!
But you know, the wind hasn't started blowing yet.
The wind?
You said it yourself.
Many winds are gathered into one!
You're not heading back?
You know, Crawly, I don't remember how Mom looked when she smiled.
I can only remember her crying.
Mommy! Mommy!
Sela.
Tell me! Why did Mommy have to die?!
Answer me!
So? Are you serious about killing me this time?
It's true that because you repudiated me, I never became a legend.
And so I hated you enough to want to kill you.
I repeat:
A moment ago, the OCB Commission revealed that the first prize in the Championships
will be a pass to play in the Lunar League.
James...
What are you plotting this time?
Amazing! The Lunar League!
Hear that, Mr. Dan-
Mr. Dan?
At that moment, I felt the wind blowing.
As Mr. Dan dribbled, he was almost like...
Almost like... a whirlwind given form!
Basquash!
Princess!
Jiiya, stay under!
Dan?
And I just finished servicing him too!
Learn some restraint, Dan!
That hurts!
How many times do I have to tell you?!
Silly Mr. Dan.
You can say that again.
When it comes to Dan, the best-laid plots never seem to matter much.
Plots?
Oh, never mind.
Shall we go?
So says the child who refused to move all this time.
I'll do it for myself. That's all.
So, are you gonna kill me, Iceman?
No, I won't kill you.
I'll win against you and I'll leave you alive; then, I'll leave you behind me.
You've changed!
Someone taught me to not run away, that's all.
Dan!
All right!
Let's go for it!
The scattered winds gathered into one to produce an incredible power!

Next time: League, League, League!
LEAGUE LEAGUE LEAGUE
Lay all your hopes and dreams on the ball!
You can't relax until it's over!
