In 2004, Kohei Hayashi moved to Montedio Yamagata, another team in the J2 League. He played for this team for four seasons. During his time at Montedio Yamagata, he often came into games as a substitute forward, helping his team by scoring goals. He played many matches for them.

Kohei Hayashi decided to retire from professional football at the end of the 2007 season. He had a career spanning over a decade, playing for various clubs in Japan's professional leagues.
