Chapter 136 135. Will Win

By the time it comes to the endgame, the situation is actually not that complicated anymore.

As long as you have a certain level of skill in the competition for small official pieces, it is basically impossible to make a mistake. Before the end, Torajiro Kashima also knew how far he was behind.

But Kashima Torajiro was unwilling to give up, and finally collected all the official pieces.

At the end of the game, Zhan Lang won with a seven and a half point advantage.

This advantage is already huge in professional competitions, and there is actually no need to finish it.

"Lost."

Torajiro Kashima couldn't help but rub his face, although the dust had settled later.

But after insisting on taking the last step and losing, I still feel hard to calm down.

In the official game, not only did I fail to change the score to one to one, it even became two to zero.

In the first professional match between the two sides, Torajiro Kashima lost the first game.

"Review the game."

Although Zhan Lang didn't understand what Kashima Torajiro was saying, from their movements, it was clear that the two of them could communicate directly through Go.

"First of all, you're going in the wrong direction, you should be going in the opposite direction.

Then the two of us switched here, and you chose to pick it up in the 54th move.

Anyway, I think you are not doing well here. If it were me, I would just come in and give it a try."

Although he also didn't understand what Zhan Lang was saying, just by looking at the changes on the chessboard, Kashima Torajiro knew what he meant.

But seeing this change, Torajiro Kashima just shook his head.

Not to mention that we are reviewing the game now, even if Zhan Lang told me this step during the game, I would not agree with it.

After all, in his opinion, this move not only has a number of points, but also is related to the strength of both parties.

Even though you won, I still insist that I am right.

The two men kept swaying and talking with changes, and soon they came to Kashima Torajiro's last losing move in the whole game.

Seeing that his casual move led the whole situation to complete failure, Torajiro Kashima could be said to be full of regrets.

But it’s useless to say anything now, but at least we should save our reputation when we review the situation.

Move 110, White chess piece, flying.

Torajiro Kashima made this variation, which was also a new move he came up with.

In other words, after taking that step, Torajiro Kashima kept struggling with that step for the rest of the game.

I was thinking about whether I could turn the tables if I had the chance to do it all over again.

If I could do it again, wouldn't it be the turning point of my failure, but instead the door to my victory?

In the end, this was the answer that Torajiro Kashima came up with.

fly!
Torajiro Kashima performed the changes he had imagined. If Zhan Lang chose to break at this time, it would be the time for him to fight again.

The white pieces above are not your chess pieces. They may seem numerous, but in fact you can completely give them up.

At this cost, he directly blocked the black dragon on the left side of Zhan Lang, leaving him with no way out.

In this way, he would have the means to attack Zhan Lang and kill several big dragons at any time.

With his own strength, he might be able to fight.

But when he saw the change made by Torajiro Kashima, Zhan Lang just shook his head, took away a few chess pieces on the board, and returned to the move made by Torajiro Kashima.

Then he picked up a chess piece and put it down.

It was still the same move, Zhan Lang still chose to hit the upper left corner in the same way.

When seeing the exact same choice, Torajiro Kashima showed a puzzled expression.

After all, with this flying move, the situation on the entire chessboard has become completely different.

If Zhan Lang makes the same choice again, it may be right before, but not necessarily so now.

Or rather, it’s completely wrong.

He put his dragon in complete danger.

Isn't this courting death?

Could it be that Zhan Lang couldn't see that the chess piece on his left was still alive?

However, due to language constraints, Kashima Torajiro had no way to communicate directly with Zhan Lang. He could only point to the black chess piece on the left and then wipe his neck.

What I mean is that this black piece is not alive at all. If you don't care, I will kill it directly, and the situation will be completely different.

If you take off your clothes at this time, the dragon might be gone.

Zhan Lang looked at Kashima Torajiro's actions and easily understood what the other party wanted to express.

But Zhan Lang didn't say anything, just smiled.

Compared to Kashima Torajiro's Dragon Slaying Sword, Zhan Lang is obviously more confident in his ability to kill the lone weapon.

You think this part is not alive yet, but I totally think it is enough.

Looking at Zhan Lang's expression, Kashima Torajiro didn't say much, but he was already unsure in his heart.

But there are too many changes in this area, and it is impossible for Torajiro Kashima to pull Zhan Lang to start over here and play the next round to determine whether the big dragon can survive.

Even if you play another round, you can't tell whether you are dead or alive.

From this point on, there is actually no point in comparison, so I just end it abruptly.

After the two finished reviewing the game, Zhan Lang left immediately. After all, there was no one to communicate with in the entire arena, and Yu Zhengcai had a bye today, so he might as well go back to sleep.

After all, I went to bed late this morning, so I should sleep a little longer to prevent myself from oversleeping again tomorrow morning.

"Lost?"

Seeing Kashima Torajiro's expression that couldn't hide his worries, another Omori who had finished the game came over and asked.

Kashima Torajiro's stern face says it all.

And according to Kashima Torajiro's personality, if he had won, he would have slammed the table and laughed, instead of pretending to be dead here.

"Well, you won, right?"

Torajiro Kashima just nodded. Omori's opponent was a kid from South Korea, so there was no possibility of losing.

“A win is a win.”

When Kotaro Omori heard this, he couldn't help but scratch his hair. He originally thought that the other party was a child, and from a remote area like South Korea.

It's called a profession, but isn't the profession in Korea just a parallel import? In Japan, it may not even be considered a strong amateur.

With this mentality, Omori underestimated his enemy and thought he could win with just a few moves.

The result was a wake-up call for the opponent. After falling into a disadvantage at the beginning, they fought hard for a long time before finally winning.

But luckily we won, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing.

However, Kashima Torajiro obviously didn't know this. In his opinion, it should be an easy win.

Apart from these two sets, the other two sets also ended quickly.

As expected, the Japanese players won the remaining two games, except for the civil war which they would definitely lose. Japan got three wins and one loss, and the overall record was three wins and two losses.

"But we lost the most crucial game."

Japan Chess Institute director Koichi Sakamoto looked at the competition results sent to him, then looked at the five players participating in the competition and shook his head.

This result can only be described as unsatisfactory.

You may say it’s not good, but it’s actually okay.

You said okay, but we didn’t win the key game.

The best result should be four wins and one loss. Except for the civil war, none of the other games should be lost.

Only with such an opening can we create the image that the younger generation of Japan is invincible.

Tell Japan and tell the world not to try to challenge the myth of Japan being the best Go player in the world.

But the result of three wins and two losses doesn't sound very good.

Although one of the battles was lost in the civil war, in fact, only one battle was lost.

"Torajiro, oh Torajiro, what a disappointment.

9th Dan Fujii Hideaki said that you made a low-level mistake, which led to an irreparable error.

I thought you were... Oh, you really disappoint me."

“Private Marseille with red bean paste!”

Hearing this, Torajiro Kashima didn't say much. No matter how erratic he usually was, he could only bow and apologize at this time.

After all, it was their own mistakes that led to Japan's only real defeat.

Even if there hadn't been this low-level mistake, it might not have been possible to win given the previous losses.

But this mistake was so low-level that it made Torajiro Kashima want to commit suicide by disembowelment.

It’s a pity that there was no kaishakunin around, so Kashima Torajiro could only bow and apologize.

"It doesn't matter if I say all this, this competition started because of you.

I put you in the first position to appear in the hope that you could avenge your previous defeat and win back what you lost, but the result is so disappointing.

Not only did you fail to do so, you continued to deepen your shame.

You should know how high everyone's expectations are of you. You have really let down all the seniors who had high expectations of you and the vast number of Japanese chess fans.

The rest of you should take this as a warning. The lesson of Kashima Torajiro is right in front of us. Never make such low-level mistakes again.

Each of you is an elite and rising star in Japanese Go, and represents the hope for Japanese Go in the next decade.

In organizing this competition, we not only want to defeat the Chinese chess player named Zhan Lang once, but we want to win more times.

It would be best if all four of you remaining could win.

We want to show our sponsors and the Japanese people that Japanese Go will always be number one in the world, both now and in the future.

Only in this way can we live up to those who sponsor Japanese Go and the vast number of citizens who support us.

No matter what kind of geniuses appear in other countries, they will only be supporting roles of Japanese Go, and the green leaves for the brilliant blooming of Japanese Go!
do you understand! "

"understand!"

……

Six days later, looking at the five dejected people, Sakamoto cast his last gaze on Sato, the only remaining member of the Japanese team, and his lips moved slightly.

"Zhan Lang, who has won seven games in a row, should be difficult to deal with, right? Will you lose?"

Looking at the four dejected companions around him, Sato Toshito, wearing a black leather jacket and crossing his chest, was still full of confidence.

"Will win!"

"It doesn't matter, I'm the strongest!"
