How does はっとばすぞ translate as "Don't make me hit you"?


I was watching some Nichijou, and in this one scene where Mai and Yuuko are
helping Mio with her manga, Mai wrote in one of the text bubbles, "はっとばすぞ" and
on the screen it translates to "Don't make me hit you." I feel like this is
wrong, since there's no mention of "打{う}つ" (to hit) and it's too short to
translate to that. So I was wondering, does this translate to that at all or
is the translation really crappy?[![enter image description

Also how does "はっか場すぞ" translate as "Don't make me kill you"?

Actually, that is not a crappy translation at all.

Literally, 「はっとばすぞ」 means " ** _I'll knock you flying!_** ", so "Don't make me
hit you." , while grammatically very different, carries a similar meaning.

The dictionary form of 「はっとばす」 is 「張{は}り飛{と}ばす」. 「ぶっ飛{と}ばす」 also has a very
similar meaning.

"Don't make me kill you!" is also not bad at all as, I hope, you now could
see.

Translations do not always need to be produced word-for-word as long as the
intended meaning of the original is maintained, which is the case here.
