After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

Chapter 77 77. God Creation
“Is this a new change in the avalanche?”

“It is not certain yet, and we cannot immediately judge which of the subsequent changes of Chang and Ban is better.

This new change must be studied carefully before it can be inferred whether it is true or not. We have sent the chess records to several top-notch chess players, asking them to see if they can find any clues.

Or...is there any way to crack it?"

Iwasaki, the vice-chairman of the Japan Chess Association, looked at the chairman Hase who was holding the chess record and said something with his head down.

"How did you find out about this game? I don't think you paid any extra attention to the Chinese games, right?"

“There is nothing surprising about China’s Zhan Lang defeating Kansai’s Lin Heye, and we don’t pay much attention to it.

However, Lin Heye quickly submitted the chess record to the Kansai Chess Institute after the game, and our people there passed it to us. Only then did we know that such a thing would appear in this confrontation that was not worthy of attention.

I didn’t expect that there would be something worth paying attention to in the first round. It was my mistake.”

"So this new change was thought up by this young man?"

As a professional player, Vice Chairman Iwasaki denied it without even thinking: "Impossible."

"Why isn't it possible?"

Although Chairman Hase is the chairman of the Japan Shogi Association, he is not a professional Shogi player, so he asked Iwasaki, who denied the situation at the first time, with some surprise.

“The emergence and improvement of a pattern is a very long process, and it is very important to be able to improve or propose new changes to a complex pattern like the avalanche.

It is necessary to accumulate profound chess skills and long-term understanding and research of this pattern.

No matter how you think about it, the Chinese teenager who has only learned Go for about a year as described by Fujii Hideaki 9th Dan, cannot possibly meet this standard.

It might be possible that it was researched collectively by Fang Yuan or Chen Long from China, but it is absolutely impossible that this young man researched it on his own.

Otherwise, the Japanese chess world would have become a joke over the years."

Japan has not made any innovative changes to the three major patterns over the years, but one person improved the Avalanche, which is known as one of the most complicated, in just one year of study.

It's impossible no matter how you think about it.

Unless the opponent alone is only equal to the entire Japanese Go community.

It is impossible for one person to compare with a country.

Chairman Hase was not in awe of Go. Instead, he thought of other cases: "But there are always geniuses in this world, right? For example, is there an unsolved problem in the scientific community that was solved by a teenage genius?"

“Those talented young people all come from families with a long history of learning and have received the best elite education since childhood.

Their talent plus endless resources allowed them to accumulate as much as an ordinary scientist would accumulate in their entire lifetime by their teens, which is why it was possible for them.

But the Chinese boy only studied for one year. For most people, one year is not enough to even get started in Go. No matter how talented they are, it is impossible. "

Iwasaki, with the awe of a professional Go player towards Go, denied Hase's comparative inference without any hesitation.

If a player can improve a fixed pattern or develop a new fixed pattern layout throughout his lifetime, it is enough to leave his name in the history of Go.

Such an achievement is impossible for a teenager who has only learned Go for one year.

Even if he is a monster.

"Then how do we explain this new change in the avalanche of chess?"

When Hase heard this, he raised the paper in his hand. This could be considered irrefutable evidence, right?
“At present, we have not confirmed that this change will definitely take effect, and there is no countermeasure that can overturn it.

Maybe it was just a prepared flying knife, and during the game, everyone was caught off guard because they couldn't find the right way to deal with it." "If it was a flying knife, it should have been used in a more critical place, right?"

"That's what I'm confused about. I can only say that this child is too impatient? He seems to be eager to show himself right from the start?"

Iwasaki was also extremely confused when he heard this. In the previous exchange match, the opponent had already handed over a trump card. Then in the first round against a player like Lin Heye who was not very strong, he could easily defeat the opponent head-on, but he still used a flying knife that he had never seen before.

If the first time could be considered as an eagerness to win, the second time was a pure waste.

Lin Heye's strength is not worthy of a player like Zhan Lang who has a chance to win the championship to use such a thing.

It's just like Lu Bu's battle against Xing Daorong with full equipment and invincibility. It's such a waste.

You can't even last two moves under normal circumstances, it's a pure waste of mana.

(Lin Heye: What are you talking about! What are you talking about!

"All I can think of is that this might be the result of a collective study by the Chinese Chess Academy, and then handed over to this child."

"That makes even less sense, doesn't it?"

Hase couldn't help but feel a little confused when he heard this. You said that the Chinese Chess Institute's collective research has come up with some things that are actually acceptable to everyone.

For example, when China collectively used the Chinese style in an exchange competition, this layout became popular in Japan.

This also made the Japanese Go community look up to China a little bit. Compared with other Go countries, China is still the second largest country.

If these two research results were put into the China-Japan exchange competition, it would make China look more impressive, right?

Hase couldn't help but rub his brows. This felt like someone took out a SCI paper in a college competition. No, it was two papers.

Everyone is arguing about whether it was he who came up with it or his father, an academician.

Even for his father who is an academician, the value of these two articles is not low for his professional status.

“It’s possible that the Chinese want to pin their hopes on the next generation, relying on young kids like Zhan Lang to defeat our young kids and achieve a reversal.

So they may want to make a talented young man a benchmark to overwhelm our younger generation in terms of momentum.”

Iwasaki thought about it carefully and couldn't find any other explanation.

After all, Japan now has six top-notch players, as well as other powerful players who are comparable to the top-notch ones. The Japanese Go that is at its peak cannot be defeated by the weak China today.

They can only place their hopes on the next generation, waiting for the top-notch talents to grow old in ten years and for China's new generation to overwhelm Japan's new generation.

"So, we can't let Zhanlang win the championship. The only one who can win the championship is Torajiro."

The battle for supremacy in Go is like a fight for the throne. If one person takes a step ahead, he will be ahead step by step. Once one of them accumulates momentum earlier, he will soon become unstoppable.

Since China has placed its hopes on Zhan Lang, it should defeat this guy as soon as possible.

Not everyone is Luan Gu Shenzi, who can stand up after being beaten to pieces.

“In the third round, Zhan Lang will meet Nakagawa again, and he won’t win this time.

The demon sword will not lose."

PS: I have something else to do. I will update it in the afternoon and it will be on the shelves on April 1st.
