The player Ness chose as his top pick is Wen Akagi, a member of the Nijisanji "Hero" team. He has a cheerful personality and loves alcohol. His fried chicken is so skilled that it draws rave reviews not only from fellow Nijisanji Livers but also from the staff. Ness entrusts him with the reincarnated soul of Takahiro Ikeyama—formerly of the Yakult Swallows and known by nicknames like "Hit-Making Machine" and "Bunbun-maru" (The Big Swinger). Despite suffering from debuffs like "Strikeout-Prone" and "Double Play-Prone," he has acquired numerous positive traits—such as "Clutch B," "Power Hitter," "Recovery A," "Injury Resistance," "Infield Hit," "Multi-Hit Game," and "Tenacious Hitter"—making him a slugger that opposing schools simply cannot ignore. Will he achieve a glorious victory and savor the taste of a celebratory drink?
