Chapter 36
The seventh inning of the Honinbo title battle begins.
Asama Kuwahara sat on the sidelines and recorded the chess board. After more than half a year of big hands, he has successfully advanced to the second dan.
In several round-robin matches last year, he passed the first round of Tianyuan Tournament, Honinbo Tournament, and Throne Tournament. Taya Ryo passed the Chess Master Tournament and Celebrity Tournament. Haven't had a chance to participate yet.
And as long as the two meet in the competition, one of them will definitely lose, either him or Ta Yaliang.
The two are about the same age, with little difference in chess ability, almost the same experience, and similar family background. In addition, Ta Yaliang is always gentle and introverted, with a handsome and gentle face, and a humble person, while Kuwahara Asama is soft-spoken and likes to wear loose clothes. Wearing white kimonos, their actions and demeanor are as elegant as those of the Heian era, so the two are called the twin stars of the chess world.
It's just that Toya Ryo is more aggressive, and Kuwahara Asama is more confusing.
Of course, the external comments had no effect on Taya Ryo or Kuwahara Asama. Some time ago, he was worried about Kuwahara Inbo, which caused him to lose a round in the second round of the Tianyuan Tournament, and missed the Tianyuan final next year.
However, Kuwahara Asama has no interest in the game recently. He has put all his energy into the confrontation between Kuwahara Inbo and Ogata Seiji. Today, the seventh game of the Honinbo Round Robin Tournament is coming to an end. Kuwahara Asama looks at the chess board, slightly frown.
After all, Kuwamoto Inbo is old. After the previous six games, he is already very tired. It can be seen from today's chess game that Kuwamoto Inbo has given up his previous straightforward style and returned to his feminine and treacherous thinking. Ogata's fine and cautious chess moves, Kuwamoto Inbo's trap may not be of much use.
Time passed quickly, after a whole day of playing a game of chess, Kuwahara Asama was not in good health, and now his complexion was pale, relying on the black stripes on his back as a cushion, and stretching out the white one that Chang Jingji gave him. The umbrella with black stripes on the bottom, this is how I persisted.
Sure enough, he had a brain twitch and ran over to be the recorder.
However, the recorder is a job that every new chess player must do. Even if he wants to push, he can't push it out. , Kuwamoto Inbo suddenly gave birth!
"..." Asama Kuwahara was almost out of breath.
Teacher Kakimoto was also stunned, he took a deep breath, "The time is up, the next move is to seal the hand."
Asama Kuwahara looked at Seiji Ogata, who was staring at the chess board and thinking about the chess move, with his arms crossed, suddenly remembered something.
It seems... Seiji Ogata has never sealed his hands, right?
He looked at Kuwamoto Inbo, but found that his grandfather had no expression on his face.
Kuwahara Asama narrowed her eyes slightly, was this intentional?
He suddenly remembered a sentence.
The game of Go is not only played on the board, but also outside the board.
You have to fight outside the chessboard, otherwise what you lose is not chess, but life.
Kuwahara Asama silently lit the wax for Ogata Seiji in her heart, and reconfirmed that her grandfather was indeed an old fox.
Half an hour later, Ogata Seiji took the game record and drew the seal hand.
Kuwahara Asama got up immediately, he nodded at Kuwahara Inbo, and left first.
After going out, breathing the fresh air outside, Kuwahara Asama's whole body felt much more relaxed.
After spending seven full games with Kuwahara Inbo, Kuwahara Asama learned a lot.
This kind of momentum and subtle confrontation outside the chess game can only appear in high-end chess games, especially Honinbo's defending battle Ogata Seiji and Kuwahara Inbo racked their brains in order to win the game, and the game with a stack of clever tricks benefited him even more a lot.
He looked at the bustling crowd and bright street lights outside the Chess Academy, and a sense of heroism and desire suddenly rose in his heart.
He also thought, play chess like this!
On the second day, Ogata Seiji was too careless to open the market, and finally lost to Kuwamoto Inbo, and failed to hit the title of Honinbo.
Kuwahara Inbo laughed triumphantly, "Ogata, you're still a little tender~"
"Old fox!!" Ogata Seiji gritted his teeth. He regretted it so much at the moment. How could he be so obsessed by the old fox's words last night, which caused his mentality to fluctuate during the game today, and made several faint moves!
He took a deep breath, took off his glasses, wiped them, then put them back on.
"Old man, next time, I will never lose!"
The two-month Honinbo defending match finally came to an end. Kuwahara Asama was tempered by these seven games, and was even more eager to play against high-ranking chess players, so he couldn't wait to contact Shinto Hikari, wanting to play against Fujiwara Sawei.
It just so happened that the qualifiers for the professional examination officially started at this time. Sato Fujiwara had to tutor Hikari Shinto every day. Those students who took part in the entrance examination could no longer participate in the student training on Saturday, so Kuwahara Asama simply invited Hikari Shinto Come play chess at home.
"Not only can you play chess with me, but you can also play chess with my grandfather, my father!"
"What?!" Shindo Hikaru was shocked, "Playing chess with Kuwamoto Inbo?!"
"Yes, not only you, but also Zuo Wei, you can also play chess with grandpa!"
Fujiwara Sawei was so happy that he almost floated up, 【Really?Can your grandpa see me too? 】"No! But I can ask my shikigami to help you place the chess pieces. If you point to the position, it can be placed!"
"Go! Let's go to your house to play chess!!" Shindo Hikaru immediately agreed.
"Then it's settled, come to my house every Saturday and pack lunch!"
Kuwamoto Inbo had just finished defending the Honinbo title, and his whole body was in a state of lightness. Hearing that his grandson had found him a ghost chess player who had been dead for hundreds of years, he laughed and started playing against the opponent without asking his name. .
Then he lost in a mess.
Kuwamoto Inbo was silent for a long time, he stared at the chess board, "Who are you?"
【I'm Fujiwara Sayori! ! 】Fujiwara Sawei shouted his name loudly, but unfortunately the old man sitting opposite couldn't hear him.
Fujiwara Sawei turned his head quickly, and found that Kuwahara Asama and Shinto Hikari were getting up, and they were so focused that they didn't notice the situation here at all.
Fujiwara Sawei showed a lonely expression on his face, he lowered his head slightly, his slender long hair fell on both sides of his cheeks, blurring the faint vicissitudes flashing in his black eyes.
Heitiao glanced at Sakai contemptuously. It stretched out its long fingers, picked up the pen and paper next to it, and wrote Fujiwara Sakai's name on it.
Kuwamoto Inbo looked at the name on the note and murmured, "Fujiwara Sakai?"
Sawei Fujiwara was shocked, he looked up, and saw the pen in Kurojo's hand and the paper next to him, and was moved to tears, [Thank you!Shikigami Asama! ! 】Hei Tiao is too lazy to take care of Zuowei.
"I've never heard of it, but..." Kuwamoto Inbo's cloudy eyes flashed a light, "Very strong!"
"I apologize to you, I underestimated the enemy before, let's continue!"
Fujiwara Sawei showed a fighting smile after hearing this, [Upper right corner, Hoshime! 】He is also eager to have a good fight with Honinbo in this era, so...
Click, the black bar slowly placed the chess piece in the upper right corner of the star, and then it started to be in a daze.
Ah, I sneaked into Karakura Town yesterday and ate a spirit body full of white bones. It tasted like chicken, which was really good.
If the master is too tired to play chess today and falls asleep, should he continue to eat some snacks?
"I'm so hungry..."
Kuwahara Asama and Shindo Hikari played for a whole day, except for eating a bowl of ramen at noon under the supervision of their mother Hideko, they ate nothing and kept playing chess.
At the end of the descent, whether it was Hikari Shinto or him, there was a feeling that the more you went, the more crazy you went.
Shinto Hikari's chess skills are not as strong as Kuwahara Asama's, but beyond Kuwahara Asama's expectations, Shinto Hikari has an inexplicable talent in Go. Together, Shinto Hikaru can always find a new path in a desperate situation, and then... come back!
Of course, even if Hikari Shinto made a comeback, Asama Kuwahara could still easily suppress him. In other words, Hikari Shinto would lose a day after they played.
He felt so cruel.
But it’s so cool to play =v=
Kuwahara Asama is like an onion, he always feels that he has peeled to the last layer, but every time he sharpens his knife to shred the big onion, he will be so hot that his eyes will cry and he will lose the game.
Oh, I'm so unhappy.
When it was night, Kuwahara Asama finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted.
Shinto Hikaru was shocked, "Ah!! Asama! Asama?!"
His shout finally caught the attention of Kuwamoto Inbo next to him. After seeing his eldest grandson fainted from exhaustion, he said without any surprise, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that Asama has a heart disease. Don't be too tired, and you can't be emotional." Too much volatility."
"..." Hikari Shinto is going crazy, so tell me such an important thing earlier! !
Kuwahara Inbo and Fujiwara Sawei played chess all day, and he was exhausted. He said weakly, "Sawei, I won't play today. Let Shikigami help Asama back into the room first."
Saori Fujiwara nodded again and again, and the moment Kuwahara Asama passed out, he thought of Toranojiro who had vomited blood, and when he heard that Kuwahara Asama had a heart attack, he hurriedly said to Heiti who was sitting beside him in a daze, [Hurry up!Send Asama back to the room quickly, and have a good rest! ! 】Heitiao picked up his master with ease, and walked away lightly.
The corner of Shinto Hikaru's mouth twitched, and suddenly he looked up out of the window, only to be surprised to find that it was already very late! !
"Ah! I'm going home!!"
Kuwamoto Inbo stretched his waist, and said with a smile, "Why don't you live in my house!"
"Uh, live here?"
"Yes! My family is very big, I can play chess with you!" He said slyly, "It's so boring to always play chess with one person!"
Satoshi Fujiwara was stunned for a moment, then he hugged Fujimitsu's thigh and cried loudly, 【Ah Hikari, you can't abandon me! ! ! 】Shito Hikari said angrily,【I can't let go either. 】
Immediately, he sat upright, a little nervous, but also a little excited, "Then, then, please give me your advice!"
The author has something to say: Well, this is the biggest change of Hikaru. With Asama’s connection, Kuwamoto Inbo and Sawei can play chess freely.
The two Honinbos sit together and play chess after time, space and time, I think Sato must be very happy =v=
