Bird Soul: Unparalleled National Warriors at the Beginning.

Chapter 706 The Prime Minister's Determination: The Creation of the Fourth School!
"Now that the rules have been explained, let's briefly discuss the chips."

Owada Koizumi snapped his fingers, and behind him, a waiter pushed open the back cabinet, revealing bundles of 10,000 yen bills neatly arranged.

The quantity is unknown.

Nan Yan also waved his hand, and Suzuki Shinya, after inspecting the mahjong machine, had Yoshioka Shin bet over a hundred billion Happy Beans from the company.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Vasily gambled 500 million yen back then, which, according to CPI, is only equivalent to less than 2 billion yen today. However, if we consider core assets and factors such as inflation, that 500 million yen back then is actually equivalent to 5 billion to 100 billion yen today.

Moreover, Washizu Iwa was a very famous investor back then. With 500 million yen under his control, he could have easily acquired shares in promising Japanese companies and rare assets.

If this money is operated for several decades, it will definitely become an astronomical figure.

Like some urban business novels, the protagonist goes back to the past, buys stocks, speculates on Bitcoin, and invests in companies like Tencent, Alibaba, Xiaomi, and Huawei that haven't yet risen to prominence, and then becomes a trillionaire in just one or two decades, making ordinary people think, "I can do it!"

Not to mention a top investor like Washiu Iwao, who possesses a vision that transcends time and space and has exceptional investment capabilities.

So what one commentator said—that 500 million back then is equivalent to 5 billion today—is not an exaggeration at all; in fact, it could be considered very conservative.

After all, the appreciation of core assets in just a few decades can completely overturn anyone's perception.

Just like the programmer who bought multiple pizzas with 100,000 Bitcoins, he never imagined that the Bitcoins he held, which were worth only a few thousand yuan at the time, would become a huge sum of 80 billion yuan in the future!
The original 500 million yen, in the hands of Washizu Iwao, whose investment acumen was unparalleled, would have appreciated to an unimaginable level.

Therefore, it is unreasonable to underestimate the 500 million in 1965 simply because of the difference in money involved in the legendary night.

"This is part of my assets, about 300 billion yen, which I received from the Tsar of Russia back then. It is legitimate property!"
However, apart from Nan Mengyan, the other two people present were both penniless, so their stakes weren't limited to money.

Everything of value can be used as a bargaining chip.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhumu stared blankly at Nan Yan and the Prime Minister's assets, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

In fact, she earned quite a bit of money in the league, but compared to these two people who held power, her money was just a drop in the ocean.

She seemed to have never considered that playing mahjong actually cost money.

Akagi also sighed.

He did have some savings, but it was far from enough in front of Nan Yan and the Prime Minister, so it was clear that he and the girl next to Nan Yan would not gamble with money.

Tonight's mahjong game is so sacred that the tiles used for betting certainly cannot be borrowed.

"So, is the Prime Minister planning to refer to the betting odds from the last legendary night, or...?"

"Using your own blood is fine, but there are more interesting bets."

Owada Koizumi smiled slightly, "As you all know, my friend Neman is a mahjong player who is very interested in human memories, especially those of mahjong players who are stronger than her, such as Miss Shirazuki and Lord Akagi. Your memories are incredibly delicious to her."

Of course, I am equally interested in your memories.

I'm very curious about how monsters like you gradually transformed from nobodys into powerful demon kings who dominate the world.

So tonight's mahjong game, you can offer your memories, or you can offer your blood!

"That's kind of interesting."

Shigeru Akagi laughed heartily.

He has Alzheimer's disease, and since his memory will soon disappear within a few years anyway, he doesn't care about losing his memory.

Moreover, he felt that if future generations read his memories, they would find them extremely boring.

It's worth noting that he spent most of his time working in factories, riding motorcycles in schools, and working as a elusive figure in the underworld.

Everyone knows he is a ghost or god, but they don't know that the life of a ghost or god is actually quite ordinary.

"I don't have any objection either."

Emperor Mu nodded indifferently. If one were to become a ghost or god, those beautiful memories would only become a burden.

Therefore, letting go of memories can actually bring liberation.

Sometimes, too many heavy, nostalgic, and beautiful memories make her feel sad, because whether it is pain, sorrow, joy, or happiness, it will never come again once it's gone.

The pain of the past will no longer be so unforgettable.

The happiness of the past doesn't evoke much feeling now; in fact, it might even bring a touch of sadness.

Or rather, her humanity has been slowly disappearing with the passage of time.

Even if later generations analyze her memories, all they find is ten years of emptiness and a hundred years of loneliness.

Pointless.

She didn't mind exchanging something unintentional for chips at all.

"very good."

Owada nodded with great satisfaction. "In that case, 1000 points are equivalent to one billion Happy Beans, 100cc of blood, or a year's worth of memories."

Hearing about such an unusual bargaining chip, countless people were greatly surprised.

"No way, 1 billion Happy Beans only get you 1000 Points? Is the Prime Minister really going to play this high game?"

"Wow—back when I played high-stakes mahjong at Sifangshoutan, I only ever played a game with 1000 points and 10 million, but this is 100 times! That's outrageous."

"I can understand blood, but can memories also be used as leverage?"

"My God, 1000 points equals one billion Happy Beans, and it only requires 100cc of blood! Prime Minister, come and take mine, I have a lot of health! And I'm not greedy, I only want 10 billion!"

"Can you erase my memories? Please, Your Excellency Prime Minister, I don't want a single penny. I broke up with my girlfriend, and she slept with one of my African friends. I even booked the hotel for them, and she made me deliver condoms and told me to stay under the bed and not come out. I really want to die! Please, erase all my memories from the past two years! I really don't want money!"

"Upstairs, I feel sorry for you."

"Tch, 1000 points and 1 billion game points is nothing special. I've played games with 1 billion points before."

"Damn it, the guy upstairs is just bragging."

"I have actually fought before. Back then, I helped the Sakura Wheel Society fight the Mountain Fan Society. I made the Sakura Wheel Society tens of billions with just one Pure Three-Color."

"Go on, you're just bragging. I also made hundreds of billions for Chiba Group with a Grand Slam. Anyone can brag."

"Exactly, the person upstairs is talking big without fear of biting off more than they can chew."

"Hahaha, this is hilarious. The lunatic upstairs really thinks he's some kind of ghost or god's bodyguard."

"..."

At Xiaoyue Mahjong Parlor, seeing himself being relentlessly criticized by everyone, Dojima immediately launched into a tirade of profanities.

Is 1 billion Happy Beans and 1,000 points so impressive? It's not like I haven't beaten them before. These bastards are blind!
Back when he and K were substitutes for the Sakura Rinkai, that is, during the period when they were lapdogs for Boss Gao, the Sakura Rinkai and the Yamasenkai were fighting fiercely.

Then the two sides arranged a high-stakes mahjong game in the underworld. It started at one million one thousand points, but later Ye Zhengyi, the leader of the Mountain Fan Society, got angry and the multiplier increased tenfold, eventually reaching one billion Happy Beans one thousand points.

In that one battle alone, he earned 40 billion Happy Beans for Boss Gao.

As a result, he told the truth, and these idiots on the internet attacked him indiscriminately, saying that he was bragging. How could Dojima tolerate this!

"Stop bragging online, you useless old man."

Despite wearing a skirt, Dojima Tsuki casually tossed her food-grade feet onto the mahjong table and then mocked Dojima like a little devil.

"Just like someone said before, 'Nan Mengyan is nothing in front of me, I can crush him with one finger,' and that my loss to Nan Mengyan was because I was bad, and that if my good-for-nothing brother were here, he could teach Nan Mengyan like a son."

As a result, in the World Youth Championship, they were defeated 3-0, losing all three games!

What a laugh!

Your results against Nan Mengyan are not as good as mine!

Facing her useless older brother, Dojima Tsuki mercilessly ridiculed and mocked him.

Previously, when she was being bullied by Nanmeng Yan in various ways during mahjong games, Dojima always acted all joking and laughing in front of her. Now that Nanmeng Yan has beaten Dojima up, she naturally has to get her revenge.

Nanpu Kazue, standing to the side, took a deep breath, feeling that the personalities of these two siblings were truly hard to describe.

Once they get together, they're like a powder keg, ready to explode at the slightest touch.

"I……"

Dojima was furious.

Little did he know that Nan Mengyan was actually Kitagawa Kudo.

Originally, he wanted to stubbornly insist that he had used force to kill Nan Muyan, and that he hadn't said it had to be at the mahjong table. But then Dojima thought that Nan Muyan was someone who could go toe-to-toe with the martial saint Irisu Shogo in Dragon God Mahjong. This kid was completely different from a weak high school student like K.

So he could only swallow back all the words he wanted to say.

"Hey, it's your turn to play, Gui."

Dojima Tsuki urged him on.

"Oh, sorry."

K shoved his cards over; he was so engrossed in watching the live stream that he didn't react for a moment.

"He won by himself."

【五六七万，五六七筒，五五五五六七八索】，自摸八索。

A clean hand, three suits without any terminal tiles, red dora3dora1, double full!

The player has two sides of the winning hand: five and eight of bamboo. However, the five bamboo is in the winning hand, so the player can only win by drawing the eight bamboo. But the eight bamboo must be a three-color high-scoring hand.

"..."

Dojima Tsuki's expression was strange.

What the hell?! I was already getting beaten up by Nan Mengyan, but how did I end up being roasted like a chicken by this guy?!
.
the other side.

The equivalent value of the bargaining chips offered by the Prime Minister made Nan Yan hesitate for a moment.

He has 100 billion Happy Beans, which means he has 100,000 points to squander.

A person can only draw a maximum of 2000cc of blood. Even if he and Akagi have backup hidden energy, they can only draw a maximum of 500cc more, which is not very meaningful, so it only amounts to 20,000 points.

As for memory, it's difficult to measure.

It's important to know that some crucial memories cannot be deleted casually.

For example, if the memory of mahjong rules were deleted, then ordinary people probably wouldn't even know how to play mahjong. So if we really want to treat memory as a bargaining chip, at most we can delete the memories of the first few years after birth, as the impact of those memories is not that great.

Memory becomes increasingly crucial during the growth period, with many of these memories shaping personality and personal development.

Memories of family, classmates, friends, and loved ones are also present during this time, and cannot be disturbed at all.

As you grow up, you might be able to erase some less important memories, but not many.

Unless you really risk everything, the memories you can erase are only a little over ten years old, which is only a little over ten thousand points.

Even someone like Akagi, who has lived for decades, could only have 30,000 to 40,000 memories if he could erase another 20 or 30 years of his life.

Including the blood that can be drawn, that's 2000cc.

From this perspective, Akagi and Shirokumo only have around 40,000 to 50,000 chips.

In contrast, he had 100,000 in hand, and also had blood samples and memories as reserves.

The Prime Minister, needless to say, holds 300,000 chips and can create as much as he wants.

Mu is a girl under thirty years old. Whether it's blood volume or memory depth, she has the least. On this legendary night, no one will rely on the strength of others.

Therefore, she has the lowest number of chips.

In Ōwada's view, Minamihiko was just a boy under eighteen years old with insufficient memory, so he would obviously choose to use assets and blood. However, what Ōwada did not know was that Minamihiko also had a hidden reserve of memory.

Memories of past lives can be burned if necessary!

They may not have as many bargaining chips as the wealthy prime minister, but they are not without the ability to fight.

Although the Prime Minister could sacrifice his own resources to fully support Akagi if necessary, Akagi's base resources are only half of his. If it were the old man, it would be advantageous for him.

Back when Akagi was at the peak of his career, he encountered the blind Ichikawa. When Ichikawa had a huge amount of chips, Akagi felt a headache coming on and couldn't fight at all.

It was only after discussing with Ichikawa to increase the multiplier that they were finally able to defeat Ichikawa.

If Akagi's blood is too thick, it will cause a lot of trouble.

Therefore, this chip design cannot be said to be unreasonable.

Their biggest problem is that Mu's bargaining chips are a bit too few.

Her low health, minimal assets, and limited memory are her biggest disadvantages compared to Akagi and the Prime Minister.

So his wife, who is a ghost or a goddess, is perfect in every way, but unfortunately, she's not rich.

That's when.

Nan Yan felt his sleeve being gently tugged.

Looking back, I saw Mu Huangchao nod seriously: "I'm fine."

“Okay, I’ll do as you say.” Nan Yan looked at the Prime Minister. “We agree.”

"Since everyone is okay with it, I'll announce the next rule."

Owada slowly began, “There are a total of six and a half rounds, and the final settlement uses the positional difference. The first place has 5000 points, the second place has only 1000 points, the third place has -1000 points, and the fourth place has -5000 points.”

Since it was a one-on-one fight between Akagi and Minami, I was fighting against Shirozuki.

For example, if in the first half of the game, Akagi is first, Nanyan is second, Baizhumu is third, and I am fourth, assuming that the difference in points between each player is not large, then if Akagi is paired with Nanyan, Nanyan will have to give Akagi four thousand horse points, and if I am paired with Miss Mu, then I will also have to pay four thousand horse points.

Furthermore, at the time of settlement, assuming Akagi has 40000 points, exceeding Nanyan's 35000 points, then Nanyan will have to pay an additional 5,000 points.

If Nanyan were in third place, he would be two positions behind Akagi in first place, which would be 6,000 horse points plus a point difference.

This rule is very simple, isn't it?

They are positioned opposite each other.

This means that the alignment during settlement will be crucial.

If he is second and Akagi is third, then he wins in terms of position order.

But if Mu is fourth and the Prime Minister is first, then the horse points alone would cost 10,000, which is equivalent to ten years of memories or 1000 cc of blood.

This is very scary.

"I have a condition."

At this point, Akagi made a request: "Different chips can be used for payment, but they cannot be exchanged, and chips that have already been paid cannot be retrieved before the six and a half rounds are over."

If it's Ronghe, they also need to pay the chips directly.

In short, one's own chips can only be consumed before the game ends, and cannot be increased.

This request is very much in line with Akagi's consistent style.

During the battle with Washizuka Rock, in order to provoke the old man, he threw a cigarette butt into the blood he had drawn, to show that he would not take his blood back.

In this legendary battle, Akagi certainly wouldn't back down.

You can take his blood and memories if you want!
There are also rules regarding why players with negative scores won't be eliminated, but I won't go into detail about those.
.
Achiga Girls' High School, Nara Prefecture.

The mahjong club was also crowded with people at that moment.

The girls from Achiga were all sitting around the TV, watching the game. The girls from Kumakura and Miyamori were also present.

"Teacher Chitu, this rule doesn't seem fair to Nanyan and the others."

Xin Zichong couldn't help but say, "The Prime Minister has 300 billion in funds, which is almost unlimited. If he keeps feeding cards to his teammates, he can completely sacrifice his own money to help his teammates get first place. This is very disadvantageous for Nan Yan and his team."

Moreover, Ms. Bai Zhu is unlikely to be a wealthy person.

"Moreover, if we really reach a dead end and need to use memories as leverage, Nan Yan and Ms. Bai Zhu are both so young, and their memory depth is far inferior to that of two middle-aged and elderly people who are already over fifty. This rule is completely disadvantageous to them."

Matsumoto Gen couldn't help but worry.

This is a very simple math problem. Nan Yan and Mu's total funds are only one-third of each other's, and their memory thickness is probably only half that of each other.

In terms of health, Nan Yan might have a slightly higher HP than his opponent, after all, he is a young man.

Ms. Bai Zhu probably weighs less than 100 pounds, and her blood volume is definitely the thinnest.

No matter how you look at it, the total number of chips is far less than the opponent's.

"There are advantages and disadvantages."

Harue Akatsuchi began her reading comprehension exercise: "This mahjong game is essentially a one-on-one match between Minami Yumehiko and Shigeru Akagi, while the other two players are partners."

Akagi's advantage is having a teammate with high health, who can send the Prime Minister to victory if necessary.

However, his only bargaining chips are 2000cc of blood and decades of memories. According to the rules, lost memories and blood cannot be retrieved. In this case, the opponent is just a glass cannon with high attack but low health.

If Nan Yan can finish the battle quickly and severely damage the opponent, then the situation will be very favorable.

Conversely, if a protracted war is to be waged, it is essential to ensure that Shirakawa has a sufficient advantage over the prime minister.

“Nan Yan probably also knew that his opponent was not so easy to defeat, and with a chip lead over Akagi, he had more room to maneuver, which is why he agreed. He knew this decision was a double-edged sword, but it was probably the best solution after considering all aspects.”

Kumakura Toshimi said the same thing.

In black mahjong, especially in the gambling field, the side with more chips naturally has a huge advantage. In the hands of those who are good at playing mind games and scheming, as long as they have more chips, they can basically be invincible.

Nanyan's opponent, Akagi Shigeru, was someone Kumakura Toshi didn't know.

But since Nanyan made this choice, it means that Nanyan believes that Akagi is more skilled at manipulating people's hearts than him, so he cannot allow Akagi to have a higher personal base than himself.

While they do have a lead in single-chip stacks, their margin for error is indeed lower than their opponents'.

"In that case, let's start the first half-game."

After finalizing all the rules, the Prime Minister announced them loudly. Nam Yeon took a deep breath.

The legendary night is finally about to begin.

With a mix of excitement and trepidation, Nan Yan put on heavy gloves and grabbed his assigned cards in the dark cave entrance.

According to the rules, whoever is the first to draw the transparent card (East Wind) becomes the dealer.

If the east wind is swallowed by the mountain, then the order is transparent south wind, west wind, north wind, and white hair.

Nan Yan quickly caught a transparent Dongfeng.

Therefore, in the East round, the dealer is Minamihiko, the South player is Shirochikumo, the West player is Akagi Shigeru, and the North player is Owada Koizumi.

After all players have drawn their cards, the dealer draws a card from the hole as a bonus card and places it on the adjacent square.

He was very lucky; he was caught with a black card, North Wind.

Dongfeng became a prized asset.

Moreover, the two transparent Dongfeng images are clearly visible.

The Prime Minister was speechless. This kid really is the successor of Mr. Washizu. He has such good luck right from the start.

More importantly, apart from the two transparent East Winds, the vast majority of the other cards were face down. On the other hand, Akagi had ten transparent cards out of thirteen, and they were fragmented, making him either a six-way or five-way ready hand.

This round went way off.

Because so many of the cards are transparent, it can't even deter Nanyan.

The Prime Minister's own hand wasn't much better; half of his hand was transparent, and he was in a four-way wait, so there was no chance for a quick attack.

I suddenly realized that people with strong basic fortune are really disgusting.

"bump!"

Soon, in the second round, Nan Yan received a Dong Feng from Mu, and then in the third round, he drew another black Dong Feng and opened a Kong.

After adding the bar, he quickly reached for a north wind sign through the dark hole.

On the fourth round, he won by drawing the winning tile himself.

The whole process went smoothly and in one go.

【2340,000, 77 of bamboo, 456 of string, fafa】, secondary reveal 【East East East East】, self-draw 7 of bamboo.

"W Dongfeng, dora breath, 8000 points per household."

Nan Yan quickly pushed out his hand.

"Nan Yan, I think people who play cards with you will be very boring."

The Prime Minister smiled helplessly.

The dealer gets a perfect hand right from the start, a self-drawn winning hand – that's unacceptable!

Moreover, this kind of strong luck is hard to resist in Washizu Mahjong.

Under this rule, there is no concept of a "tile mountain" (or "tile wall"). All tiles are drawn from the tile holes by the player, which means there is no way to change the order of tiles by calling out a tile, thus preventing the opponent from drawing the tile themselves.

If you're lucky enough, you can win by drawing the winning tile yourself without any restrictions.

Therefore, the Washizu Mahjong game created by Washizu Rock was indeed designed to counter Akagi's causal laws.

"It's alright, there are still quite a few people who like to play mahjong with me," Nan Yan said casually.

"Those people are really masochists."

Owada Koizumi then pointed to the pair of "Lucky" tiles in Nagano's hand, "You clearly have this pair of 'Lucky' tiles. As long as you touch them, you'll get three times the maximum payout for the dealer. Moreover, the pair can also be used with red tiles. Judging from your performance in the World Youth Championship, you'll basically chase any high-scoring tile you can."

Why don't you do that anymore?

I've heard that the "Peerless Master" principle emphasizes unparalleled skill, meaning that when luck is on your side, you should unleash your full potential and make the most of your hand.

However, you clearly had a chance to triple your winnings with this hand, so why did you stop at just double?

Under this rule, there are red treasure cards, and the red treasure cards must be face down.

There are no red gems on the field right now, so there's still a chance to draw one.

If you touch the "Fortune" tile, it's even simpler; it's tripled.

"I did consider it, but I think the Prime Minister is a bit too calm. If nothing unexpected happens, the black card in your hand should be the card I want."

Nanyan glanced at the few black cards in Owada's hand.

His intuition told him that this was the card he wanted.

"You guessed right."

Owada openly and honestly pushed over his hand.

He has two black cards and three red cards: 0P, 0S, and 0M.

If you want to triple your winnings, you need to wait even longer, or you need to open a Kong with a Seven of Bamboo and then gamble for a Kong with a bonus tile. Obviously, you can't let a master player play like that.

"But the night is still long. If you start so aggressively, aren't you afraid of running out of steam?" The Prime Minister's lips curled up slightly. Yu Wushuang's luck was indeed strong, but it couldn't last.

A strong start can be hard to capitalize on.

"That's no trouble for the Prime Minister."

Nanyan slapped the bat on the ground and started the next inning.

Under this rule, you won't lose points from your teammate if you draw the winning tile yourself; you can only get points from your teammate if you win the draw.

This means that his self-draw as the dealer only increased his score by 16000 points.

Against other opponents, Minamihiko could maintain his advantage until the fourth South, but against Akagi and the Prime Minister, this point is not safe enough.

In the first round, after receiving the Red Dragon tile from Emperor Mu, he quickly won by self-draw.

Only the Red Dragon is the smallest hand, which is Nan Yan's favorite, with 30 points. In addition, there is a game where each player gets 600 points.

The Prime Minister smacked his lips and obediently took out 600 points.

The second game ended with a blank score of 700 points.

The Prime Minister rolled his eyes, looking speechless.

Seeing this, Akagi's expression didn't change much, but he was secretly amused.

Back then, when he played against Washizuka Rock, he used small cards to quickly gain points in the early game.

The focus of this decision-making process is not on the score, but on observing the opponent's reaction and then calculating the next move based on that reaction.

Nan Yan, despite being the heir to Washio, inexplicably possesses the same demeanor as his father back then.
.
"This quick and efficient style of play is very similar to someone else's."

Seeing Nanahiko's sudden quick attack, Dojima couldn't help but look at Ice K, who had placed a riichi stick to the side and announced riichi.

Having partnered with K for so long, he had figured out the guy's personality.

Whenever he encounters a troublesome opponent, he inexplicably speeds up his winning pace, artificially accelerating the game's rhythm in order to find weaknesses in his opponent's hand.

But to be honest, the effect was minimal.

If it's a regular strong opponent, that's fine, but for someone like Boss Gao who's unmoved by anything, winning small hands in a row is meaningless to them.

It even seems to have run out of ideas after using it too much.

After all, at this level, if you go for a fast attack, he can also go for a fast attack. Apart from quickly advancing the game, you can't create a crushing point difference, and it's easy to be overturned.

K uses this move every time because he feels the pressure from his opponent; it's an involuntary personal habit and style.

And every time I see K use this tactic, I get countered.

K knew that Dojima was targeting him, but he didn't care. Instead, while drawing cards, he whispered, "Nanmu Yan is probably thinking of getting as many points as possible to put pressure on the Prime Minister and the Onijin and force them to take action."

Then quickly play your small cards to maintain your current advantage until South 4.

However, the other two teams are unlikely to give him that opportunity.

It's the third game, so they should at least show some real skill.

The legendary night can't just become a show for Nan Mengyan alone!
On the sixth turn, Nan Yan drew a tile that gave him a winning hand.

【One three three three four five six seven nine nine nine of bamboo, one two three of rope】, Treasure tile three of rope.

Playing out one of the five types of bamboo is called "listening" or "listening" with two, five, eight, four, and seven bamboo.

However, this deck has no yaku (wins) and only one dora (treasure tile).

If you listen silently, you cannot win, and you can only win twice by drawing the winning tile yourself.

"Richichi."

If you have a hand that can be played from all five sides, you can be a little more daring.

Nanyan directly threw out the riichi stick and announced that he had declared riichi.

At that moment, the Prime Minister suddenly revealed an evil and dangerous smile.

coming.

He reached his hand into the black hole, then rubbed his thumb hard on the card.

After receiving that card, he immediately discarded a card from his hand and declared riichi!

Nan Yan raised an eyebrow slightly. Most of his cards were transparent, especially the multi-sided wait, which was easy to see. Although the Prime Minister had a lot of black cards in his hand, did he dare to compete with his five-sided wait with his riichi?
Moreover, without the obstruction of tiles, as long as you have good luck, it is easier to win by self-draw in a single round than in normal mahjong.

Nan Yan closed his eyes and pulled a card out of the black hole.

Black card, red five of bamboo.

His hand was a set of five tiles, waiting for two, five, and eight of the same suit, plus four and seven of the same suit. He could easily win by drawing the winning tile himself.

But just as he was about to push over his cards, his expression changed slightly.

His hand changed from a five-sided wait of [3334567999 of Bamboo, 123 of Sole] to a false stand of [333467999 of Bamboo, 123 of Sole, White Dragon]!

Looking at the whiteboard, Nan Yan's expression was incredibly strange.

This is clearly the Prime Minister putting on a show.

Without a doubt, it's the Prime Minister's signature move – blind card bombing!

In this case, if he were to fold his hand, it would be considered a bluff, resulting in a draw and a penalty of 12000 points for a slam.

If this five-tube weapon is fired, it will likely cause a fire.

With Riichi, Ippa, and two Dora tiles, you've at least made a Mankan (full slam). If you also get extra Ura Dora tiles and Tsuke (hand yaku), the winnings will be even greater.

But Nanyan glanced at Akagi and then fired the Akago-tsuba.
.
"What happened? Nanyan's hand has changed. He was just ready to declare riichi and go for five turns."

"Logically, he should have already won by drawing the winning tile himself, so how did he get this blank tile?"

"That's strange. I just blinked, how did the cards suddenly change? Did something supernatural happen?"

"It's been fraudulently established? What's going on?!"

"..."

Countless people witnessed the change in Nan Yan's hand. In the blink of an eye, Nan Yan's hand turned into a false accusation, which was very strange!
Inside the room, Nan Yan was seen to have played the red five of bamboo.

Akagi slowly raised his eyes: "Brother Koizumi, why did you resort to such methods?"

It was obvious that Akagi also noticed the irrationality of Nanahiko cutting out the red five of bamboo.

Logically speaking, Nan Yan had a five-sided wait, and drawing the five of bamboo would have been a self-draw, but he discarded it instead. This is clearly the Prime Minister playing tricks.

Moreover, Nan Yan's decision to play the five of bamboo was clearly a way of complaining to Akagi.

Akagi naturally understood and asked aloud.

Moreover, given the Prime Minister's personality, although he may occasionally resort to underhanded tactics, he would not suddenly disrupt the fairness of the Night of Legends in such a serious setting.

It was clearly the Prime Minister's doing.

"Rong!"

However, the Prime Minister did not agree to Akagi's request, but instead pushed the cards to his hand.

[One, two, three, four, six, seven, eight, nine of bamboo, two, two, ten thousand, white, white, white]

Stand upright, unleash a white shot, and in one breath, execute Dora 2, jump to full speed!
“Akagi, I absolutely have to win this hand, because it concerns my path. Of course, I will only win this hand once tonight.”

"Owada Koizumi took a deep breath and said."

He then picked up the five of bamboo in front of Nan Yan, pressed his thumb on the surface of the card, and gently wiped it.

A magical scene unfolded in the shot: the red five-bamboo that Nan Yan had fired turned into a blank card, and the blank card in Nan Yan's hand also turned back into a five-bamboo.

"As you can see, this is my ability, Owada Koizumi, which is called 'Blind Card Bombing.' Any card in my hand can be turned into a blank card."

In this world, there are always some people who possess extraordinary talents and abilities.

However, in the world of mahjong, this talent is considered heretical and is not tolerated by either the legitimate or illegitimate worlds. In particular, those mahjong players who awaken the ability to plunder are called dark mahjong players and are despised by everyone.

These kinds of people are like rats in the gutter, only able to eke out a living in the dark side of this world and deep underground.

They will never receive fair treatment from this world.

"But aren't your actions also undermining fairness?"

Bai Zhumu retorted softly.

"That's right, what I just did was exactly the way underworld mahjong players destroy fairness."

The Prime Minister readily acknowledged this.

"This world has always been unfair. From the moment people are born, they face injustice from the world, especially in the world of mahjong!"
In ancient times, when mahjong was brought from the Celestial Empire and rose to prominence in this eastern island nation, this injustice permeated every corner.

The unfairness was already evident from the very beginning of the Teppōdama school.

Some people are born with calculation abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people, easily defeating those with insufficient calculation skills and winning vast fortunes from others. Others are skilled in techniques, honing their skills to the extreme, and achieving the same effect through cheating methods that are completely undetectable.

After that, in order to address this unfairness, the technology of mahjong was open sourced, allowing ordinary people to catch up with geniuses through hard work and diligent practice.

Cheating techniques are subject to corresponding restrictions and regulations in both the legitimate and criminal worlds. The legitimate world completely prohibits cheating, while the criminal world has a convention that as long as one is not caught on the spot, it is not considered cheating.

In order to ensure fairness in mahjong, people have used rules to impose restrictions.

Little did they know that the two major schools that emerged afterward would push the world of mahjong into an even deeper abyss of injustice!
These two major schools are called "Peerless Warriors" and "Causality!"

From the moment Owada was born into this world, he understood a principle.

As the eldest son of a political family, he possesses connections, resources, and pathways to advancement that ordinary people cannot access.

As long as he was born into this family, he was destined to become prime minister in the future!

We were all born on this land, yet the differences in status between humans are so vast!
Owada has always felt saddened by the injustices of this world.

As the son of a political family, he could greedily and indulge in the sunshine and rain of the world, recklessly enjoying the pleasures brought by power and money. But there are countless people in the world who can only eke out a living in dark corners, for whom even feeling the sunshine is a luxury, and who can only fill their stomachs with swill from ditches.

This injustice pervades the entire world.

Therefore, when he was young, Koizumi Owada hoped to find the fairness and justice he sought among the general public.

While walking among the people, he inadvertently noticed a popular game.

That's mahjong.

The fact that it is loved by the general public shows that Owada initially naively believed that this was a game where all beings are equal, and perhaps he could glimpse the true meaning of fairness that he sought from it!
However, after becoming addicted to it, the prime minister was shocked to discover that the injustice in the mahjong world was far more ferocious than that in society, like a raging flood!

A statistics major with decent computing power is enough to sweep away all ordinary people, leaving them with no power to resist.

If you learn one or two card games and supplement them with some mahjong skills, you can beat ordinary people until they lose everything.

What is even more shameful is that the school of mahjong, created hundreds of years ago by unparalleled players of luck, was later known as the "Unrivaled Master."

No matter how hard you work for half your life, how many games you play, or how much mahjong skill you accumulate, you will be easily crushed into dust under Yu Wushuang's overwhelming luck.

What's even more terrifying is that ordinary people cannot cultivate this school of thought; only those with innate strong fortune can even gain access to its gates.

Ōwada was slow to realize it.

Human society is just like this game of mahjong.

Those lucky chosen ones are destined for success from the moment they are born.

Those who are shrewd and opportunistic can also thrive in this world.

The absolute fairness he sought may never have existed in the first place.

Later, after wandering through the world for many years, Ōwada learned by chance from the underworld about the birth of another school of martial arts.

Its name is—the law of causality!

From that moment on, Owada, who was just an amateur mahjong player back then, seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted.

So-called schools of thought and so-called injustices are all creations of humankind.

Wherever there are people, there will be injustice and factions.

If that's the case, he wants to create a completely new genre and break down the hypocritical mask of this world.

He named this entirely new school of thought—

The Heavenly Demon Path!
