Sohoku suffers repeated attacks from Hakone Academy and its four climbers, but through the efforts of sprinter-turned-allrounder Naruko, they make it through somehow. However, when they enter the flats between the peaks, Hakone Academy’s captain Izumida pulls his team, and they suddenly accelerate! Ace sprinter Izumida’s finely-honed muscles and spear-like racing leave Sohoku behind in an instant!
