Although the anchor had been dropped, the entire ship was still swaying.
Wearing a raincoat, Yuzuru Nishimiya lay on the deck with some difficulty, holding the bolt on the deck with one hand and holding the camera tightly with the other.
Chapter 2117: Fierce Battle and Solo Fight
In the room, Doma Yui was still fighting in a three-way battle with Terako and Yukinoshita Yukino.
Although there is a typhoon tonight, the cram school where Makihara Kozue attends is still not closed.
Yushan Kazuto was called by Kong Yinzi to play chess again, so the three of them had no choice but to choose three rows.
Because the soundproofing effect of the headphones was so good and Tsuchima was completely focused on the game, Tsuchima didn't even notice when Yushan Kazuto walked behind her.
It was not until Yushan and others lowered their heads to block out a lot of light that Domama realized there was an extra person behind her and she was shocked!
"what!"
"What's wrong, Umaru-chan?" Terako's worried voice came from the headset.
Domame was obviously frightened by the sound she made just now.
"No, nothing. There are people climbing up the mountain in the direction of SE. They are getting closer." Domama said angrily.
After saying that, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but puff out her cheeks and gave Yushan Kazuto a vicious look before looking at the screen again.
In fact, Doma Mai had already discovered that the team on the right was sneaking up, but the other side only had two people. Doma Mai wanted to take on this team alone, so she never said it in the team voice.
At this time, it is just right to use it to relieve one's own embarrassment.
Sure enough, after naming the enemy on the right, Doma didn't find a single head.
Looking at the battle that had ended, Tsuchima Mai couldn't help but look at Yushan Kazuto with resentment again.
Originally, the two heads were already buried in Tujian's bag, but after being scared by Yushan and others, they were given away for nothing.
Although the few of them were not competing to see who got more kills or anything like that, Tsuchima Yui was in a bad mood tonight, and her performance in the game was not very good as well.
In this game, she had originally planned to get more kills, but when she finally had an opportunity, it was ruined by Yushan Kazuto.
"I was a little scared just now. I'll go get a glass of water." Hiding in a small room, Domama said.
"Yeah." Terako and Yukinoshita Yukino responded.
"Please help me pay attention to the surroundings of the room."
After saying that, Tsuchima Mai closed the Discord channel voice, took off her headphones, and looked at Yushan Kazuto: "Why did the scumbag senior come in?"
"Come in and take a look at your battle situation." Yushan Heren said with a smile.
"Don't want to play chess with Ginko anymore?" Tsuchima said sourly.
"Well, I've already sent the silver back." Yushan Heren blinked and said.
"So Yin Zi has gone back." Doma Mai couldn't help but pout. No wonder Yushan Kazuto went back to the room.
But after taking a look at the time on her phone, it was just past nine o'clock. Tsuchima couldn't help but blink her beautiful eyes and said, "Why did you go back at half past nine?"
"You look a little tired." Yushan Heren said.
In the past, when Kong Yinzi came to play chess, the game would usually last until after 10 o'clock in the evening.
However, at that time, she would usually bring Hinazuru Ai or Yashagami Tenyi, so it was often two or even three of them who took turns fighting with Yushan Kazuto, and the energy consumption was not so great.
But tonight, Kong Yinzi is fighting Yushan Heren alone, so the energy consumed will naturally increase greatly.
Another more important reason is that Kong Yinzi's chess skills have improved.
In the past, I couldn’t understand Yushan and others’ chess moves at all. When I only needed to memorize them, Kong Yinzi didn’t consume so much energy.
But now, she can already understand a small part of Yushan Heren's chess moves. In addition to memorizing, she also has to do a lot of analysis, which naturally increases the consumption of her energy by more than a little.
"Is that so?" Tsuchima blinked and whispered.
"By the way, do you still have room now?" asked Yushan Heren.
Although there were only three people in the team on the screen, Yushan and others still needed to confirm in case someone had already made a reservation in Discord.
"There's still room. Do you want to play, scumbag senior?" Doma Mai glanced at Yushan Kazuto and then spoke.
Although it still sounds a bit unhappy, in fact, Domama's attitude has changed somewhat.
"Well, let's play for a while." Yushan Heren responded.
"Then just... finish this game, it's almost over." Doma Mai said angrily.
She originally wanted to quit directly, but after thinking about it, she felt it would be difficult to explain to Tera-ko, so she changed her mind.
As for Yukinoshita Yukino, she didn't need to explain anything to her. After all, she knew that she was staying at Yushan Kazuto's house.
"Yeah." Yushan Heren nodded. He was not in a hurry.
Watching Yushan Kazuto walk to her seat, Domama Yui finally breathed a sigh of relief, put on her headphones, and turned on the channel voice.
"Sorry for coming back a little late. Did anything happen just now?" Tsuchima Mai asked knowingly.
Although she had taken off her headphones just now, Doma Mai could still see the computer screen, and there was no unusual movement.
"Nothing." Yukinoshita Yukino responded rarely.
"The final circle is about to start, and we are a little late to enter the circle now." Tera said.
"Then let's enter the circle at the end and sneak in." said Doma Mai.
Yukinoshita Yukino and Terako both responded, expressing their agreement with Tsuchima Yui's decision.
The final round is a little complicated. You can either enter the circle early or grab
Occupy an advantageous position, or sneak into the circle in the end without anyone noticing.
Now is not a very suitable time.
On the way into the circle, you may be attacked by enemies who have arrived in advance. After entering the circle, you may be ambushed by enemies behind you.
The few of them continued to wait until the safe zone had shrunk to less than ten meters away from them, and then they took action.
The sound of gunfire rang out in my ears, like the raindrops outside the window, continuous.
Fortunately, no one seemed to have noticed the person stuck at the end, sneaking into the circle and burying three people.
Everyone was fighting fiercely and had no time to deal with these three sneaky people.
However, it is clear that there are more people who have this idea than just Domama and her team.
Another team also sneaked into the circle from another direction.
Just when the two teams were just a stone's throw away from the safe zone, someone from each side finally spotted each other.
"There's someone in the 235 direction!" Tsuchima shouted.
This time, she was the first to discover the enemy, but there were four enemies this time, and when Tsuchiya discovered them, they also discovered Tsuchiya's team.
This time, Doma Mai did not seek credit for himself, but took the initiative to report the information.
The battle was about to break out. Both sides were far away from the cover and could only hurry and fire their bullets.
"It looks like GE's youth training team." After defeating an enemy, Terazi looked at the ID that popped up and spoke.
GE is also a relatively famous team. It is said that this youth training team is extremely talented. Even in internal training matches, they have defeated the home team many times.
There were not many bullets left in his magazine, but no matter whether he changed bullets or switched guns, the opponent would obviously seize the opportunity.
Thinking of this, Tera couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Chapter 2118: Historical Alternation
"Morning, Yukinoshita."
"morning."
On Saturday morning, at the same time and in the same place, Kazuto Yuyama and Yukinoshita Yukino met again as expected.
Although I have been here once on Monday, since Yushan Kazuto has returned to Tokyo, it would be better for everything to return to normal.
The two walked into the elevator. Yukinoshita Yukino blinked slightly before she spoke: "I heard from Doma that you are going to play chess today?"
Yesterday, before Terako came online, Tsuchima Yui and Yukinoshita Yukino chatted briefly about this matter, but after Terako came online, the two did not continue the conversation, and Yukinoshita Yukino did not know some of the details.
"Well, the ranking battle has started, we have to go and participate." Yushan Heren nodded.
"It seems like you didn't participate in the previous ranking battle." Yukinoshita Yukino whispered.
"The situation this year is different. If we perform well this year, we can be promoted from Group C 2 to Group A, and even get the right to challenge for the celebrity title." Yushan Heren said.
In fact, Yushan Kazuto had played chess with the celebrity before, and defeated the opponent in a very strong manner.
That person was Hanyu Sanye. Hanyu had fought against him before when he was playing chess at the Saitama Chess Institute. Many people called it a battle of historical change.
Before that battle, Hanyu Sanye was recognized as the strongest chess player.
Although Hayama Kazuto's performance was unstoppable, many people also believed that it was only because Hayama Kazuto did not meet Hanyu Sanye.
However, after that battle, those who were unwilling to accept the rise of Yushanheren had no choice but to accept it.
Although there are rumors that Hanyu Sanye slacked off, in fact, anyone who has a certain understanding of shogi knows that Hanyu Sanye has already tried his best.
At the last moment, he even made a "god-like move", which seemed to have the possibility of reversing the downward trend.
However, every move made by Yushanhe could be described as a "god's move", and in the end, Hanyu Shanye was defeated without surprise.
And after that game of chess, Yushan Heren's name "Demon Lord" gradually spread.
However, although Yuyama Kazuto defeated Hanyu Sanye with great success, it was not a title match after all.
Even if Yushan Heren defeated the opponent, he would not be able to seize the opponent's title.
In the subsequent Meijin title match, Hanyu Sanye once again demonstrated his style as the strongest chess player of the previous generation, winning the game 4-0.
Of course, if it was Yushan Kazuto who challenged, the situation would probably be different, but at that time, Yushan Kazuto did not have the qualifications to challenge the celebrity.
When the winning streak rules for this ranking tournament were first drafted, Hanyu Sanye was worried for himself.
But after thinking about it, he realized that he had occupied the throne of celebrity for too long. Now that new people have emerged, it is normal for him to retire after achieving success.
It was with the approval of Hanyu Sanye that the proposal of this rule was successfully passed.
If Hanyu Sanye disagrees, the proposal will most likely not pass.
After all, Hanyu Sanye himself has actually become a kind of symbolism of shogi.
After listening to Haneyama Kazuto's explanation, Yukinoshita Yukino nodded.
She knew a little about the rules of shogi and naturally knew the promotion rules of the ranking battle. At the same time, she also knew Yushan Kazuto's character.
If Yushan Kazuto could just play in the Five-Year Ranking Tournament and get a chance to challenge for the title of Meijin, he would rather give up this opportunity.
However, since he can be promoted to Group A within a year and have the opportunity to challenge the celebrity, Yushan Kazuto is still a little interested.
"Is it still a game every week?" Yukinoshita Yukino asked again.
"Two games a week." Yushan Kazuto blinked and arrived.
Because of the winning streak promotion rule, Kazuto Hayama needs to play much more shogi than in a normal ranking match.
If there is only one game per week, it won't be enough time. Only two games per week can achieve the effect of rapid promotion.
Of course, after achieving seven consecutive wins and advancing to the next group, the next game will have to wait until next week.
In addition, after advancing to Group A, the frequency of games will be reduced, so as to avoid determining the ranking of Group A too early, which would completely eliminate the suspense of the entire ranking battle.
If that happens, it will not be very helpful to attract ordinary audiences.
The core audience is fine. After all, as long as it is a high-level game, they will watch it carefully, and even record it while watching. After the game is over, they will replay it repeatedly and study it carefully.
But it is different for ordinary audiences. Most of them come to watch the game, not to watch shogi.
If a game loses suspense from the beginning to the end, ordinary audiences will naturally lose interest in it.
After hearing the answer from Yushan Kazuto, Yukinoshita Yukino's reaction was somewhat similar to that of Tsuchima Yui yesterday, and she couldn't help but blink her eyes slightly.
However, Yushan Kazuto did not notice anything strange about Yukinoshita Yukino, because - the elevator door opened.
"What are you daydreaming about? Go out." Looking at Yukinoshita Yukino who was still standing in the elevator, Yuyama Kazuto couldn't help but speak.
Only then did Yukinoshita Yukino come to her senses and quickly walked out of the elevator.
