Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 33 Research Genius

"No matter how many times I see it, the Demonic Transformation is always so amazing."

Looking at the changes in the chessboard, Kitagawa 6th Dan, who stayed in the classroom, couldn't help but admire it.

It originated from the first Honinbo Jowa and was perfected by the second Honinbo. After continuous evolution by generations of Go players, it is known as the most complicated pattern in the history of Go.

Even now, Tianmo Dahua is still a treasure of human Go. Many professional players believe that humans have probably not explored half of the variations of this pattern.

Beichuan glanced at the students gathered at the door and felt that it was not a good idea to chase them away now. After all, most of them were concentrating on looking inside and did not do anything to interfere with the game.

All he could say was that it was time for dinner and everyone should go to the cafeteria to eat early.

However, this sentence did not have much effect. Only a few people left, and most of them went out to bring food to others.

After all, everyone also wants to see what kind of magic this Class C student has, who has defeated three students from the Japanese Academy who have the potential to become professional players and was specifically asked to compete with him.

In the classroom, Yi Zheng looked at the demon being suppressed by Da Fei and shook his head slightly.

After studying for such a long time, Yi Zheng also understood why Mr. Ke and others were unwilling to make this decision.

Theoretically it is possible, but in practice it is both complicated and not very affordable.

The main reason is that everyone originally believed that once the demon started to attack, there was no way to avoid it except to deal with it.

But Mr. Ke gave Yi Zheng a completely new idea to avoid this sharp change.

However, Yi Zheng did not choose this way.

I need to avoid his edge! ?

Eighth move, White, damn!

The devil is transformed and started!
Although it is still the same Demonic Transformation pattern, the roles of the two people are completely opposite this time.

Although it was still Kuroki Ryuji who played black, it was Yi Zheng who took the initiative to initiate the change last time, but this time it was Kuroki Ryuji who took the initiative.

So the two sides reversed roles this time, and Kuroki Ryuji's moves were exactly the same as Yi Zheng's last moves.

"Instead of choosing the classic variation of sticking, you chose pressing down?"

The Demonic Transformation is too complicated for ordinary amateur players. They may not be able to understand it even after reaching level 5. There are countless hidden flying knives.

But the most classic variation is sticking, which is an extremely classic variation that everyone knows.

As for the pressure in this step, it is valid, but the water is too deep, and even a professional ninth-dan player may not be able to grasp it.

Beichuan couldn't help but whisper to Baoshu, "What exactly is this new change you're talking about?"

"Wait a minute and you'll find out."

Baoshu looked at the two people on the chessboard making moves quickly and said something in a mysterious tone.

Move 23, Black, block!

After taking this step, Kuroki Ryuji looked up at Yi Zheng who was sitting opposite him. This was the test that the other party had given him.

Kuroki Ryuji made a wrong move at that time, which led to his total loss in the end. Now Kuroki Ryuji returns this test to his opponent.

I made a mistake, but would you?

Seeing that the chessboard progress had reached this point, Baoshu, 7th Dan, typed a line of words on his mobile phone and handed it to Beichuan, 6th Dan.

"What do you think we should do here?" After taking a look at the words and chess game pictures on Baoshu 7th Dan's phone, Beichuan 6th Dan did not watch the game between Yi Zheng and the others, but started thinking on his own.

After thinking for a while, Kitagawa 6th Dan typed a sticky word on the other person's phone and handed it back.

Looking at the choice given by Beichuan, Baoshu Qidan chuckled and typed a line of words on his phone: "I've been fooled."

After the game, Baoshu 7th Dan pointed at the game between the two people.

Faced with Kuroki Ryuji using his own techniques to torture him, Yi Zheng could only say in his heart, "I hope you really can do it."

It’s not that you will learn it just by watching Qiao Feng perform the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. The real secret lies in the subsequent continuous changes.

Looking at Yi Zheng's choice of Tiger, Beichuan 6th Dan didn't have much of a feeling. Is there any obvious difference between Tiger and Sticky? It's pretty much the same.

Looking at the confused Beichuan, 6th Dan, Baoshu, 7th Dan, displayed the changes made by the two players in the previous game, but retained the most crucial step.

Beichuan, 6th dan, didn't think there was anything wrong when he saw the situation of a capture and kill. The white pieces were surrounded and the morale was also very tense.

What if this is the case?

【picture】

Looking at the latest sharp move in the chess record on his phone, Kitagawa 6th Dan's pupils widened unconsciously.

He now understood why everyone liked to gasp in fantasy novels, because when you see something that goes against common sense, you will indeed do this subconsciously.

Is this a sharp move? Is it something Yi Zheng could pull off?
At least it is absolutely impossible that it was thought up on the spot. Beichuan feels that it is difficult for ordinary professions to think of this step temporarily. This is a step that has been planned for a long time to cooperate with the overall changes.

This step can only be taken if the overall idea is coherent. The possibility of coming up with it on the spur of the moment is extremely small.

All I can say is that Yi Zheng already knew all the subsequent changes here and was just waiting for his opponent to fall into the trap.

But that's impossible. How could he possibly conduct such in-depth research on a part of the Great Demonic Change, especially a completely new change that he had never seen before?

Beichuan, 6th Dan, feels that although he has been away from the professional front for many years, he must update his database in real time for teaching reasons. He will watch and study the latest important professional games without missing a single one.

Whenever there are professional games or other new research results, Beichuan guarantees that he has the first-hand information other than the parties involved.

But now this kind of change has never been seen or heard of.

Could it be that Yi Zheng had actually researched this? Was this guy a research talent?
Kitagawa Sixth Dan kept shaking his head as he looked at the content on his phone. It felt unreal no matter how he looked at it.

Kuroki Ryuji, who was in the game, nodded slightly when he saw this move.

After returning to Japan, Kuroki Ryuji was not idle for a while. Instead, he pestered his brother to work with him to discuss the new changes.

As the contemporary Honinbo of Japan, Kuroki Teruto himself did not take the chess game between his younger brother and the Chinese academy student seriously. He just reviewed the game with his younger brother in a guiding manner to help him find the gains and losses.

But when reviewing the situation, Kuroki Teruto realized that he was wrong. It was a brand new change and a brand new way of thinking.

Kuroki Teruto's original idea of ​​sticking was indeed wrong. The correct response to this step must be tiger.

At this time, Kuroki Teruto, who was far away in Japan, was also setting up this chess set in his own exclusive chess room.

The research on the Great Transformation of the Heavenly Demon has always been the most advanced in the Japanese chess world or the Kuroki clan. It is not that others have not made contributions, but that they quickly absorbed the ideas of others and developed them further.

Instead of working in isolation, they learned from the strengths of others. This is why the Kuroki family is still thriving in the Japanese Go world in modern times.

"The response after the tiger..."
