NABC Chapter 92
Chapter 92
"Heizi loses by one eye and a half, and Baizi wins!"
After the referee next to him finished saying this, Asama Kuwahara seemed to be fished out of the water. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His whole body was exhausted, but his spirit was extremely excited.
The chess players onlookers congratulated him one after another, "Overjoyed, Kuwahara [-]th dan successfully took over the position of Honinbo from Kuwahara Mae Honinbo!!"
The former Honinbo Kuwahara Jin who was sitting across from him also burst out laughing, his laughter felt the vicissitudes of life, although he said before that he would wait for his grandson to take over the title of Honinbo from him, but when this day comes, the feeling in his heart can be described as Extremely complicated.
His grandson stood at the pinnacle of the Go world when he was in the best years of the Double Ten Ten.
It's really scary.
Kuwahara Asama opened his eyes. He looked at his grandfather sitting across from him, stepped back a little, and bowed respectfully to the ground, "Thank you for your guidance over the years."
The chess players around looked at the pair of grandparents and grandchildren, and they smiled at the same time. They seemed to be witnesses, watching the alternation of old and new chess players, and watching the waves of the new era in the Go world.
Kuwahara Jin stretched out his hand and patted Kuwahara Asama's shoulder lightly, "Get up, you played well, you are indeed my grandson."
Kuwahara Asama stood up, helped Kuwahara Ren up, and walked out of the game room, Kuwahara Ren shouted to the people around him, "Today, I treat you all, you all have to come!!"
Serizawa Kudan next to him laughed, "It's natural, although we should release you after you lose, but now it seems that it's too late for you to be happy?"
Kuwahara Jin held his grandson's hand with a proud expression on his face, "Anyway, Honinbo is still our Kuwahara family! Hahaha!!"
Kuwahara Asama smiled beside him, and he said softly to Kuwahara Ren, "Grandpa, I'll go to the publishing department, look..."
"Go ahead, let's go eat first!"
Kuwahara Asama let go of Kuwahara Jin, and winked at the impatient Mr. Amano who was waiting next to him. Mr. Amano was overjoyed, and brought the reporter to him in a hurry.
"Congratulations on winning the title of Honinbo, do you have time to do an interview?"
"Well, let's do it now. I'm afraid Grandpa will have to talk to those old seniors for a long time. I shouldn't go too early."
Walking out of the chess academy, it was already the beginning of the lights, Kuwahara Asama helped the somewhat drunk Kuwahara Jin out of the chess academy, and saw his father, Kuwahara Matsukazu, waiting for them.
"Dad, I kept you waiting for a long time."
Kuwahara Matsuwa looked at his eldest son, and became more and more satisfied the more he watched, "It's okay, the old man is very happy, and so is Dad. Let's go, go home, your mother and brother are waiting for you."
"OK."
"Asama, became Honinbo, any thoughts?"
"Well, I just suddenly feel that my shoulders are heavier."
"It's naturally more difficult when you change from an attacker to a defender." Kuwahara Matsukazu was driving the car, the lights on both sides of the street reflected on his cheeks, and his expression could not be seen clearly, "From today onwards, you will sit in Honinbo In the face of countless challengers, it is not difficult to win the title, but it is difficult to keep the title."
"I understand that only when you truly become Honinbo will you discover how strong your former grandfather is."
Kuwahara Asahi chuckled, and looked at Kuwahara Jin who was drunk and asleep in the back row from the rearview mirror, a trace of admiration and firmness flashed in his eyes, "But I believe I can do it."
He will be like the strongest and most stable mountain, resisting the impact from all directions.
Unchanged throughout life.
After becoming Honinbo, there is no need to participate in the qualifiers of the Honinbo round-robin tournament, and Kuwahara Asama has already become a grand shogi player, so there is no need to start from the first qualifiers when participating in other title battles, so there are many free days up.
Playing chess to the present level, unless it is an excellent chess game record, simply looking at the game record and studying chess skills will not bring him much help. Kuwahara Asama now prefers to travel every week to see more people and things, increase their experience and life experience, and improve their comprehensive cultivation.
On this day, he returned to Yayuan again.
Natsume's old house had already been handed back. Natsume left the Fujiwara couple's house after graduating from university and moved back to his own house. Kuwahara Asama didn't bother to look for a hotel anymore, so he stayed in.
Natsume is also very happy, there are only him, Ma Canghao and Mr. Mao at home. Mr. Mao fights with Asakura every day. Although the house is very lively, sometimes he is too tired to deal with it.
"How long do you intend to live here?"
"Grandpa went to China to play chess at the invitation of Master Taya. Recently, the chess academy has not arranged a game for me. I plan to stay here for a while." Kuwahara Asama chuckled, "I'm afraid I will trouble you during this period."
"No way! I'm very happy that you came to live here." Natsume laughed. After graduating from university, he returned to Yayuan and became a kindergarten teacher in the town. Now it's summer vacation, so it's fine to stay at home.
After packing up the luggage, Kuwahara Asama raised her eyebrows in surprise, "How about the cat and Asakura?"
"They went to the forest in Yayuan. Mr. Nanye and his friends came to play in Yayuan, and they ran into the forest to fight."
Kuwahara Asama was taken aback, "You won't demolish my cousin's other courtyard?"
Natsume thought for a while, "Probably not, Mr. Nanye's friend brought his wife and daughter."
Ah, Yusuke Urameshi's family!
Kuwahara Asama immediately felt relieved, "With Mrs. Yingzi, I think they won't be able to fight."
"I think so."
While talking, a small white paper man floated in, and instantly turned into a maid after landing.
"Natsume-sama, my good lord calls you to have a picnic, and bring some more food by the way."
"Picnic?" Natsume laughed, "Did these big monsters go for a picnic?"
"I see." Natsume glanced at Kuwahara Asama, "Asama, can you come too?"
Kuwahara Asama smiled and nodded, "Those monsters are big eaters. Let's go to the town to buy more. I also have snacks from Tokyo in my package."
Natsume hurriedly ran to the kitchen, carrying a big basket with Ding Ding Dang bang, when he came out, he saw Kuwahara Asama carrying a package on his back, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
On the way, passing Qibao’s steamed stuffed bun shop, Natsume bought two bags of special small buns and several pots of green plum wine, Kuwahara Asama bought a lot of desserts, since Urahan brought his daughter, of course the little girl likes to eat cakes.
"Would you like an ice drink?"
"No need, just bring some water. If there is a lack of ice, let them do it themselves."
After passing through the forest, Kuwahara Asama and Natsume came to a clearing. Uramei Yusuke, his wife Mrs. Keiko, daughter Hana, and Minano Hideichi sat across from each other. Kuwahara Shinkazu and his sister were also beside him, Hiei Grilling steak with his body on the other side, Ma Canghao and Mr. Cat were fighting for the last bottle of wine, playing and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"Ah! You came at just the right time!" Seeing Natsume and Kuwabara Asama approaching, Mr. Cat cheered and rushed towards... the flagon in Natsume's arms.
"Huh? Asama?" Nanye Xiu raised his eyebrows, and he smiled, "You're here too?"
"Well, come to Yayuan for vacation." Kuwahara Asama looked at the little food left by these big eaters, and opened the package, "I brought a lot of pastries and cakes."
As soon as he put it out, Yusuke Urameshi's daughter, Hana, suddenly raised her head, "Uncle, can I eat?"
……uncle.
Kuwahara Asama suddenly felt old.
Urahan Yusuke burst out laughing, and Mrs. Keiko patted her daughter's head with a smile, "Just call me brother."
Xiao Hua tilted her head, "Brother!"
Kuwahara Asama's expression eased a lot, he picked a piece of strawberry mousse and presented it to Xiaohua, "This is strawberry mousse flavor, do you like it? Little princess?"
Xiaohua nodded heavily, "I like it!" She took it, and immediately started to eat, her eyes brightened, "It's delicious."
Kuwahara Asama smiled, "As long as you like it."
Natsume opened the basket and placed the food on the mat. Hiei, who was grilling beside him, immediately dropped the burnt meat in his hands, and ran to the mat with his body. Down a turkey leg.
Kuwahara Kazuma was furious, "You are here again!! You ate all the grilled lamb chops before, and now you still eat?!"
He rushed straight up and greeted Nanye Xiuyi, "Zangma Zangma! Hurry up and hold him down!"
Minamino Hideo laughed loudly and snapped his fingers, immediately, countless vines entangled Kuwahara Kazuma and Urahan Yusuke.
Kuwahara Kazuma exclaimed, "Ah! Kurama, why did you wrap me up too?!"
Minano Hideichi tore off the other chicken leg calmly, "I am here to fulfill your wishes."
Kuwahara and Makoto's sister rolled their eyes, "Idiot."
Keiko poured a glass of orange juice and handed it over, "Looking at them laughing and laughing, I feel like time has stopped. We are still 16 years old when nothing happened, Yusuke is still the king of fighting in school, Kurama is still in school Feiying, a top student in the college, is still looking for her younger sister..."
Her tone was a bit sad. After all these years, her husband was still so young, but she was getting old.
The gap between a human and a monster is too far, she can't catch up, and she doesn't want to become a monster, so she can only stop in place, watching his back silently, silent.
"So what?" Kuwabara Shizuru sneered, "If Yusuke dares to offend you, beat him to death!"
Yingzi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "You're right, just give him a good beating!"
Kuwahara Asama sat aside and ate dorayaki. Hearing the two ladies' tough speeches, she coughed and moved aside calmly.
Asakura burst out laughing, he could hear what Kuwahara Asama was thinking clearly, he said with great interest, "Speaking of which, do you have a girlfriend?"
Kuwahara Asama shook his head, "You have?"
"Yes! Her name is Anna, and she could see people's hearts before, but now she can't." Asakang said leisurely, "The method you mentioned seems to be quite effective. She just didn't want to read it when she was young, and then I can't see it anymore."
"Are you envious?"
"How could the future Shaman King be envious of such a small thing?!" Asakura seemed to be talking about the pain in his feet, Asakura glared at Asama Kuwahara, "Come and play chess!"
Kuwahara Asahi raised his eyebrows, and said confidently, "You can't beat me."
"So backgammon."
"..." Kuwahara Asama looked at Asakura speechlessly, "Is it interesting to play backgammon?"
"Because it's simple, I can see it!" Asakang Hao didn't hide his purpose at all, he said provocatively, "Do you dare to come?"
"...Come here!!"
They played around from noon to the afternoon, and from the afternoon to the evening, stepping on the stars in the sky and night, and the crowd slowly dispersed.
If time stays at this moment, there will be no regrets in life.
Back home, Kuwahara Asama soaked in the warm spring water, looked up at the stars in the sky, and murmured, "My dream, set sail from now on."
Kuwahara Asama, for 50 years since ascending to the position of Honinbo, he has been like a mountain, firmly entrenched on the title of Honinbo, won 25 times in the defense of Honinbo, and let countless chess players who hit the title smash their halberds with hatred During this period, he also won the titles of Chess Master, Shiduan, Tianyuan, and Throne several times, which is unmatched by anyone.
On his 70th birthday, the Kiin awarded him the honorary title of Honinbo.
Honinbo show room.
The last Honinbo in the Heisei era.
The author has something to say: Well, it's officially over.
