I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 470 An Earth-Shattering Bloodbath

Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
The sound of pieces being placed still echoed, as if it traveled through the competition venue and reverberated throughout the world.

Araki took another piece from the chess box and quickly placed it on the chessboard.

Hey!
Eight columns and five elements, block!

Soon, Su Yiming also took out a chess piece from the chess box, stared at the chessboard with a cold look in his eyes, and placed the black piece as if racing against time.

Seven columns and twelve rows, sandwich!
"Click!"

The moment the black piece was placed, the sound of a piece being grabbed rang out. Araki immediately took a white piece from the box and placed it on the board. Su Yiming followed suit and placed his piece as well!
clatter! clatter! clatter!
The sound of pieces being placed rose and fell in waves!
"Black has completed the repositioning, and the attacks of each piece are fierce. Black, who was already in a dead end, has actually formed a full-scale attack from the dead end!"

The players watching the game live and the viewers watching the live stream were completely stunned.

White's sacrifice to secure a living group was already incredibly brilliant, but Black's masterful use of a strong attack on White's central stronghold in the middle game was nearing its peak, ultimately capturing White's large group. But unexpectedly—

This is still not the end!
Although White's pieces are dead, it uses the remaining power of the dead pieces to launch a full-scale counterattack against Black, even attempting to kill living pieces with dead ones, which is truly astonishing!
This game of chess has completely exceeded their imagination, making them feel that their imagination is so poor, and they can't help but feel a sense of worship!

"Although we successfully captured a large white group, the isolated white stones on the left side have occupied a key position, and those dead stones have precisely cut off the black group's path forward!"

As the chess pieces were continuously placed on the board, Su Yiming stared at the board, gritted his teeth slightly, and his eyes were extremely cold.

The situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse!
Su Yiming stared at the chessboard, pondered for a long time, and then reached into the chess box again, picked out a chess piece, and placed it down.

On the other side, Araki's expression was equally uneasy. He stared intently at the chessboard, his focus extremely intense. As he watched Su Yiming place the white piece, he quickly reached into the chess box and swiftly retrieved the piece.

Fourteen columns and seventeen rows, press!

clatter! clatter! clatter!
The sound of pieces being placed echoed repeatedly, its lingering resonance never ceasing!

Soon, after a few more moves, Su Yiming's expression became even more unpleasant.

"White seized the initiative in a series of moves, launching a relentless and all-encompassing offensive that left us completely overwhelmed and unable to even make a single move to recover!"

Su Yiming gritted his teeth, and after a long while, he picked up a chess piece again and quickly placed it down.

Four columns and eleven rows, pointed!
Soon, Araki took another piece from the chess box and placed it on the chessboard.

Hey!
Twelve columns, six rows, Little Fly!

"Xiao Fei..."

Upon seeing this, everyone's heart instinctively tightened!

This move not only directly attacked the black stones' cutting point, but also destroyed the possibility of black forming an eye on the right side!

Black already has a hard time recovering its stones, and after this move, even if Black catches its breath, it will probably be difficult to find other eye positions. It is the most vicious move!
"If this continues, I'll lose!"

Despite this, Su Yiming calmed down, slowly shifting his gaze from the complex and entangled details to the overall picture, and fell into deep thought.

"Kacha!"

Finally, after a while, Su Yiming reached into the chess box again, and the sound of chess pieces colliding rang out instantly!
A hint of fierceness flickered in Su Yiming's eyes.

"We can't defeat White here. If we continue, we'll only get more and more overwhelmed and it will become too big to handle. Since things have come to this point, we can only underestimate this local situation, abandon it completely, and focus on seizing the larger areas and using our influence on the outside to fight back!"

Su Yiming's right hand swiftly picked up a chess piece from the chess box and placed it on the chessboard under everyone's watchful eyes!
Hey!
With a crisp sound, the chess piece is placed!

2 columns, 11 rows, jump!
Araki was stunned when he saw Su Yiming's move!

The next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he looked up at Su Yiming with disbelief.

Su Yiming took a deep breath, his gaze sharp as a sword!
"Only—"

"Only by putting yourself in a life-or-death situation can you survive!"

"It's difficult, but... I'll give it a try!"

Instantly, the world was in an uproar!
……

……

Tokyo, Japan.

The slightly overweight man stared intently at the computer screen. The moment the black piece was placed, he seemed to be violently shocked, and his mind went completely blank!
"this….."

Even though he saw the move land on the board with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe his eyes. The words were on the tip of his tongue, but something seemed to block them out!
finally--

"what is this?!"

Finally, he let out an unbelievable roar from his throat!

"They've discarded the key pieces?!"

"Such a large, thick piece!"

"While it's true that the black stones here are very difficult to handle, and it's very likely that they'll become too big to handle and become even heavier, the best course of action is to underestimate this vital group, but how could anyone possibly underestimate it?!"

"And this move after sacrificing a piece is still a leap forward."

He couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling a chill run through him, and a bead of cold sweat slowly trickled down his cheeks!

"Given this situation, he still wants to maintain the complexity... still wants to win, and is still waiting... for an opportunity to counterattack!"

"Unbelievable! Absolutely insane!"

……

The Korean Go Association, in the game review room.

"Unbelievable! How could they have done something like this!"

Lee Jun-hyuk stared at the television screen, his pupils seemingly unfocused.

"The key piece of the game was so openly and brazenly discarded!"

"Just fight it out here. No matter how White attacks, as long as Black responds to each move, even if the shape is problematic, as long as it can drag the game into the endgame, although entering the endgame is a disadvantage, the game can still be decided in the endgame!"

"This is the norm, this is normal development!"

"Abandon the key pieces, and at the same time use jumps to infiltrate the edges and corners, keeping the whole board complex. Risk your life and your fortune to incite an uprising!"

"Utterly insane!"

Lee Joon-hyuk's face was covered in cold sweat!

"This is simply unreasonable!"

"This is no longer a question of whether this move is good or bad, or right or wrong."

"We should never have thought of going down that path!"

Not only Lee Joon-hyuk, but the whole world was speechless upon seeing this move.

"This game of chess is truly solid."

"fantastic!"

Someone couldn't help but shout!
……

……

Outside the competition venue, a light rain began to fall.

Amidst the crowd, Yu Shao's eyes remained calm, reflecting the chessboard before him.

One hundred years ago, five hundred years ago, one thousand years ago...

The world changes, but the only constant is the thrilling battle on the chessboard!

One genius cannot create a golden age for Go, two are far from enough, and three are absolutely not enough. More is needed. Only a group of geniuses can drive the progress of Go!
After a long time.

Araki looked at the chessboard, the pieces on it seemingly emitting a faint glow. His face was illuminated by the light rising from below, making him appear ghostly and sending chills down one's spine. One could feel the heavy and oppressive atmosphere.

"Indeed... completely beyond my expectations."

Sweat dripped down and landed on the chessboard.

Araki stared intently at the chessboard.

"Discarding the key piece might indeed be the best choice after a calm assessment of the pros and cons."

"But how many people in the world would actually think of this and actually do it?"

"He didn't bet on my inability to kill his key piece; instead, he abandoned his key piece altogether, placing his future bets on the clash between external influence and territory..."

He is only...seventeen years old.

"It's hard to believe that this is a game played by a seventeen-year-old boy."

"He gave me a full response."

"So, we need to revise our tactics?"

In Araki's mind, different choices and the changes that followed kept emerging.

“My dead stone successfully entangled and killed the black stones, but this was not something I did, but something he didn’t want.”

"His idea is to seize key points and use external influence to invade and eliminate the remaining territories. This is certainly difficult, but since he believes that I can kill his living stones with dead stones, I will also assume that he can indeed seize key points first under the fierce attack after capturing the key stones."

"Even if he can actually do it, I will still have the advantage!"

Araki's expression grew increasingly serious.

"Let Black invade and reduce the territory. As long as I can suppress Black in the low position and build up my territory in the center, I will still have the advantage!"

"so--"

"Will Black break through the encirclement and cause a complete upheaval, or will I pin Black down and lock them down?"

Finally, Araki wiped the sweat from his face, then reached into the chess box and took out another chess piece.

Hey!
Fifteen rows in one column, stand up!
The moment he placed his piece, Araki raised his head and stared intently at Su Yiming, who was sitting opposite him.

This move not only consolidated the strength on the left side and completely locked down the gaps on the left, but also created a balanced and solid position in the center and along the sidelines. It even seemed to be preparing for the next move to capture the key black stones!
It can be said that this achieves three goals at once!
Araki's eyes were sharp, as if he could see into the heart of the boy sitting opposite him.

This boy, who was clearly only seventeen years old, was even more imposing than An Hongshi, who had played chess with him ten years ago!

On the other side, Su Yiming's face was also covered in sweat. He quickly picked up a chess piece, gritted his teeth, and placed it down rapidly!
Eighteen columns and eleven rows, awesome!
"Tu has come here first, ignoring my offer and instead testing my resolve!"

Araki took a deep breath, able to see Su Yiming's resolute attitude through this move.

Araki's eyes were cold as he swiftly reached into the chess box, grabbed a chess piece, and dropped it into the ground.

Eighteen columns and fifteen rows, jump!

Faced with White's probing move of pushing, White jumped, showing an extremely tough attitude.

Black stubbornly persisted, abandoning a key piece. After these two moves, it seems that Black has suffered a loss.

But who can be sure that this wasn't something Black had planned from the beginning?

No one is confident anymore; no one has the level of expertise to believe that their judgment is absolutely correct!

All they can do is admire!

Seeing Arakino's move, Su Yiming calmly pressed down his piece.

Ten columns and fifteen rows, Tiger!
"Instead of attacking from the side, they once again disengaged! They wanted to exchange territory for strength, but they changed their strategy instantly, realizing that even if I killed the key stones, my shape would still be less solid than White's!"

Araki immediately realized this, sweat beading on his face. He didn't have time to be alarmed by Su Yiming's quick change of thought, and immediately picked up a chess piece and placed it down!

Eleven columns and fifteen rows, paste!

The white stone is placed close to the black stone, preventing the black stone from expanding outwards. A head-to-head confrontation ensues, and a fierce battle ensues!

However, the game begins from the break. Although White prevented Black from gaining territory after connecting with Black, it was difficult to resist Black's subsequent moves to risk seizing a large area in the local area!

Of course, Araki was well aware of this and was already on high alert and prepared!
As expected, Su Yiming was not about to let such a good opportunity slip by, and the black pieces immediately pressed down!
Seven columns and fifteen rows, turn!
"We have no choice but to force it!"

Seeing Su Yiming's forceful move, Araki gritted his teeth and placed another piece on the board.

Fifteen columns and seventeen rows, sandwich!

Arakino chose to clamp, seemingly ignoring Black's attack on the lower side as well. He abandoned his immediate concerns and, with great strategic vision, seized the major territory, choosing to fight to the bitter end!

After another dozen or so moves, Black sacrificed a key piece. Although it was a fatal blow, it had no more worries and launched a fierce attack. White struggled desperately, trying to nip the threat in the bud before Black could gain any territory.

However, it was not ideal.

However, on the other hand, White has also quietly woven a huge, impenetrable net, aiming to suppress Black in a low position and prevent Black from emerging, while White builds a huge territory in the center!

On the chessboard, black and white pieces intertwine in a complex and intricate pattern, resembling a dazzling starry sky, vast and captivating!
The world is becoming quieter.

Everyone stared at the chessboard, their expressions a mixture of shock and bewilderment.

Even now, they still can't determine who has won or lost this game.

But perhaps, winning or losing is no longer important.

Regardless of who wins or loses this game, it is a battle that could make both sides legendary.

I don't know if it's because it started to drizzle.

Watching this game of chess, witnessing this fierce exchange, everyone felt not excitement for the exciting game, but rather a strange sense of oppression.

Black and white pieces continued to fall, the sound of falling pieces mingling with the patter of raindrops. Everyone stared in a daze at the game, as if they could feel the chilling intent carried by each piece as it fell, and they couldn't help but be captivated and fascinated by it.

Time keeps passing.

Hey.

"It's time to settle this..."

Someone couldn't help but stammer out a word.

Yes, it's time to wrap things up.

This thrilling and dramatic battle did not end violently in the middle game, but instead entered into an endgame struggle, lasting until the very last half point.

Finally, after who knows how much time had passed.

The endgame has been completely played out!

"ended."

From within the crowd, someone spoke softly, "This time, it should really be over..."

　Asking for a monthly ticket!
