The work of the Go master

If things go wrong, they could easily win 2-0...

Seeing this situation, Naosaka could no longer hide his admiration for the science fiction: "Could it be... that Koshikawa Tatsumi's mentality has been affected after yesterday's defeat?"

“No, look at Koshikawa Tatsumi over there…” Ōki shook his head with a grim expression, as if he had seen something ominous.

The moment the camera focused on Tatsumi Koshikawa, the temperature on the entire ship seemed to drop, and many people felt a chill run down their spines.

He had entered the ultimate state of thought.

On the right side of the chessboard, Tatsumi Koshikawa appeared extremely agitated, his facial features began to distort, and he made obvious small movements all over his body, completely unlike a chess player.

The exposed part of his right hand was being tightly bitten, like a wild beast chewing on an unbreakable bone, all the veins taut at the temples near his eyes.

Nishi Chiaki swallowed hard. He had certainly heard about his boss's deep thinking, but seeing it in real life for the first time still made him a little scared.

"Boss, is it really human?" Shizuru Fuchigami asked in a chilling voice.

Anxiety spread like a plague throughout the ship, and even ordinary tourists who were indifferent to chess felt a chill.

The black ocean surged wildly!

Thunderous electricity surged through the black mist, and gears spun wildly at the speed of a madman!

A giant creature is about to emerge from the water—

"I don't want this piece anymore!" Yuechuan Longji shouted in his heart, cutting through the sea like a hurricane.

He shoved his hand into the chess box and used all his strength to make the next move!

The entire ship felt the weight of this move.

The lightning in the black fog shone to its fullest extent, and the seawater evaporated rapidly!

The sound of a heartbeat...

Heartbeat!

The heartbeat grew closer and closer, even more deafening than a dragon's roar!

Ke Zhiguang hurriedly retreated to block, and in the next instant—

The black sea suddenly parted, like the gates of hell bursting open!

Moo moo moo—

A long, ancient, and hateful howl, embodying all the grief and indignation of the world, came from underwater and grew closer. A doomsday-level monster rose up, bathing in seawater!

The black sky collapsed down, and thick fog rose up like a tsunami!

It... finally revealed itself. The enormous conch shell, over two hundred meters tall, rose to the surface of the sea like a Titan, staring at Ke Zhiguang with the gaze of an evil god.

The moment Ke Zhiguang saw its entire body, his heart almost stopped.

This thing...

I have indeed seen it before.

In tokusatsu dramas.

It also has a strong sense of childhood.

[(Dragon Form) Gatanothor!!!]

[An evil god + destroyer of an ancient civilization + ruler of darkness + an ancient monster that has slumbered in R'lyeh for 30 million years + one of the most imposing final bosses!!!]

[The workforce has woken up!]

Ke Zhiguang was dumbfounded.

you......

Mind your own business...

You call this thing a symbolic spirit?

This actually works?

Chapter 86 A New Storm Has Appeared! (8000/8000)

An aura of evil god-level power descended upon the dark sea, causing the entire ship to sink!

The bubble in the sky was finally punctured, and a world-ending rain poured down, its head standing upside down beneath it, creating an extremely chaotic and distorted sense of horror.

Looking at the monster before him, a chill ran through Ke Zhiguang's chest, and the chess piece froze in his hand, which he forgot to put down for a long time.

It wasn't until he saw the full form of this symbolic spirit that Koji Hikaru truly realized... just how formidable an opponent was Tatsumi Koshikawa, and what level of pressure he could exert.

Gatanothor, although the name might not be familiar to most people, most people are probably familiar with him and even have a deep impression of him.

Its origin is "Ultraman Tiga". The final boss of childhood, the giant conch shell, guarded in the last two episodes of "Ultraman Tiga". With its deformed and terrifying appearance, demon king-level power, the strongest ancient super beast, and the culprit of the destruction of the ancient civilization 30 million years ago, it once petrified Tiga and sank into the Pacific Ocean, casting a shadow over the childhood of countless people. In later generations, all kinds of bizarre works were born around it, such as "Big Brother" (cough cough).

Although it only appeared in the last two episodes, the foreshadowing of its appearance was throughout the entire series. In episode 25, Kirieloid beat up Tiga, and its oppressive power once made the audience feel suffocated. As a result, when it heard that Gatanothor was going to be resurrected, it was so frightened that it quickly rolled away from Earth.

The moo I heard before sounded like an elephant, which is its original sound, but it was more in line with its enormous, sky-covering size and its ancient, hateful emotions.

An upside-down black crown was placed on Gatanothor's deformed head, a symbol of the Dragon Throne holder.

It's less of a crown and more of a crown for the virus.

[Awakening!]

Two episodes to go!

[A comeback from a 1-0 deficit to win 2-1!]

[A comeback from 0-2 down to win 3-2!]

A series of visual effects appeared on various parts of Gatanothor's body, with each character burning with black flames. From a distance, Gatanothor appeared to be walking on the sea in a burning posture.

Although they are all these kind of momentum-enhancing words that have no real effect, in Ke Zhiguang's experience, these momentum-enhancing words are often more powerful than words with actual effects. Ordinary symbolic spirits can only hang one at most, but this one can hang them all over its body!

This is Tatsumi Koshikawa. No wonder he has the ability to control a creature like Ghidorah as a puppet. A creature that can control a giant dragon has often transcended the realm of mere creatures and reached the level of a god.

Evil God!

As I said before, if this were delayed for another ten years or so, who knows what might happen to the Dark God from Yu-Gi-Oh! who would appear in front of us!

Fear, stress, and countless complaints...

King Ghidorah is something that's been around for a while now, it was filmed in 1964, so why is the final boss of Ultraman Tiga, a 1996 film, appearing here?

As for the Cthulhu faction, Gatanothor is indeed a Cthulhu monster. Cthulhu sleeps in R'lyeh, while Gatanothor sleeps in R'lyeh next to New Zealand. However, upon closer comparison on the map, it is found that the two coordinates are not much different.

Needless to say, Gatanothor is truly a native Japanese monster with an extremely strong Crocodile element!

This dragon element... is embodied in the shell of the Gatanothorna conch.

Asymmetrical dragon-shaped wings adorn the left and right sides of the conch shell, making it the only dragon element on its body.

With so few dragon elements, they dare to call themselves a dragon?! This is ridiculous!

"Come on, Koji, let's enter the final battle!" Koshikawa Tatsumi shouted "Freedom!" as if standing on top of Gatanothor.

The tremors of the tsunami came from beneath my feet; it was Gatanothor charging forward! The fierce sea wind pushed Kojiguang into a defensive stance.

The game continues! Tatsumi Koshikawa swung a chess piece down from a great height!

On the Black Sea, a giant pincer emerged from beneath the surface, whipping up waves weighing tens of thousands of tons!

[World-destroying power!]

This is a display attached to the pincers, which translates to... incredibly powerful local computing power!

Without hesitation, Ke Zhiguang also flipped two chess pieces, and a close-quarters battle of giants tore open the bottom of the chessboard!

At times like these, you must not be intimidated by the opponent's momentum. Where it is necessary to fight back, you must not hesitate to confront them!

As we all know, this world is overly idealistic; whichever side backs down first will lose.

In the blink of an eye, Ke Zhiguang raised his courage to its peak, bent his knees, and used the water's surface to propel himself forward.

The pieces on the chessboard begin to make contact!

Gatanothor's chariot stopped on the water's surface, splashing up a towering wave!

Ke Zhiguang was blocked in front of the pincers, halting its momentum.

The chess piece was charged into the palm of the hand, burning the five fingers into a red color that symbolized power!

"It's coming. Is Koshikawa Tatsumi's magical and elaborate sacrifice going to be staged on the chessboard again?" Naosaka asked in a cold voice.

He could also sense that something indescribable had happened to Tatsumi Koshikawa just moments before. Something like black mist emanated from his shadow, and the lights dimmed considerably.

The camera crew also felt this way; the entire shot suddenly became darker, and they couldn't get it back to normal no matter how they adjusted it.

Suddenly, something twisted behind Tatsumi Koshikawa, and a blurry, eerie monster shadow flashed by, startling the entire film crew.

"A paranormal event?!"

In the lounge, Xingcai's face showed shock: "What...what is that?"

"Did you see it too?" Xingjia asked.

“I can’t see very clearly… but there seems to be something there, something terrifying…” Xingcai covered her arm with trembling fingers.

"It's good that you didn't see it clearly. That's not something you can look at with peace of mind. That's... an evil god..." Xingjia smiled bitterly and patted the other's shoulder.

In another lounge, Nishi Chiaki and Fuchigami Shizuru were also speechless.

"Is this his strength after he awakened?"

On the deserted island of Yagami Kingdom's capital, raging seawater surged onto the island, seeping in through the cracks in the door and soaking the villa's floor. Coconut trees were torn apart in the storm, teetering on the verge of collapse.

He sighed: "In the end, we still couldn't hold on?"

Each move of the chess piece gives one a chilling feeling as if the ship is sinking, unconsciously gripping the heavy object beside them, as the whirlpool drags the ship towards the abyss.

Deep in the Pacific Ocean, aboard the Ryugu, on the chessboard, the battle of power has come to an end!

A piece is added to the board, and the last bit of power surges forth!

Drink up!

Ke Zhiguang didn't know why he made that "ah" sound; perhaps something ingrained in his DNA had kicked in.

On the chessboard, the black pieces attacked the white pieces in the center from both sides, their sharp claws piercing through the joints, and blood spurted out!
