Chapter 636
It's just that this aggressive style of play can be tried in practice or entertainment games.
But now it's an official match, and it doesn't allow for any willfulness.
Compared to risky head-on attacks, the flexible response strategy she is currently adopting is clearly more steady, and the winning rate is also higher.
There is no need to accept Natsume Chikage's seemingly fierce provocation; just follow her familiar shogi style, be solid, the enemy advances, I retreat; the enemy retreats, I advance.
Relying on the advantage established early on, she is basically already in control of victory.
You must know that fast attacks are inevitably accompanied by piece sacrifices, obtaining local advantages through exchanges.
But Natsume Chikage's fast attack this time, under her meticulous response, has never been able to take any advantage.
The defeat, it can be said, is already destined!
But for some reason, when she caught a glimpse of Natsume Chikage's still calm and composed face, she couldn't help but feel a bit strange in her heart.
This guy... hasn't he realized yet that he has fallen into a disadvantage?
Does he really not consider defense at all?
And just two moves later.
She was surprised to find that Natsume Chikage actually... turned to defense?
Witnessing this scene, the corners of Asahina Akatsuki's mouth curved imperceptibly, and a trace of light relief flashed in her heart.
She only felt that although this guy was dull and slow to react, he finally realized he should defend.
Congratulations.
But it was too late after all.
Now, you have completely fallen into my rhythm.
Even if you start to defend, you are ultimately just a toy struggling in vain in my palm!
The corners of Asahina Akatsuki's mouth rose slightly, and a look of certainty rippled on her lips.
She felt that she could basically already touch the reality of victory.
Even, she seemed to have already seen what kind of shock and unwillingness would be on the faces of those girls when she successfully made Natsume Chikage, whom many girls could not reach, her boyfriend.
You must know that in the Private Moonlight Academy where Natsume Chikage is located, there are basically all big ladies and young masters from prominent families.
Everyone is either rich or expensive.
One of the most dazzling among them is the existence like Yue Dao Lin.
However, Natsume Chikage, who even someone as excellent as the super genius violinist Yue Dao Lin could not chase, was easily obtained by her—just imagining that scene made her heart surge.
At that time, she must specifically hold Natsume-kun's hand, walk in front of Yue Dao Lin, and then be intimate with Natsume-kun; I think Yue Dao Lin's expression must be very interesting.
Even, she must show off well in front of that woman Huang Mu Jie who has well-developed limbs.
Let's see who dares to assert that she can't chase Natsume-kun.
This is enough to prove that relying solely on appearance and family background is not enough to capture Natsume-kun; wisdom and strategy are the keys.
And at this moment.
The two in the commentary booth also keenly noticed the change in the shogi game through the director's screen.
Seeing this "greenhorn" Natsume Chikage finally start to defend, they were stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that it was too late.
Male commentator Jing Shang Ya San shook his head, his tone carrying regret:
"Player Natsume finally knows how to defend now, but turning to defense at this time... it is ultimately a step too late."
"If he had adjusted his strategy immediately and launched a defense when he sensed Asahina's intention to turn from offense to defense at the third move, perhaps he could still maintain a balance at this moment."
Female commentator Nan Tiao Wu Zi nodded in agreement, her expression serious:
"Yes!"
"Turning to defense only after player Asahina has already gained a certain advantage is already a sign of a desperate struggle."
"But no matter what, player Natsume being able to rein in at the precipice is ultimately a good thing."
"At least from the perspective of the game, the current situation with both offense and defense is better than being beaten one-sidedly before, which can help him stabilize his position."
Male commentator Jing Shang Ya San looked at Natsume Chikage on the screen still playing fast, while the opponent needed to think for a long time, couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"There is one more point... I don't know if I should say it or not."
Nan Tiao Wu Zi turned her head, revealing a curious look:
"What is it?"
Jing Shang Ya San revealed a complex smile:
"That is, player Natsume seems to be the kind of player who is young, energetic, and extremely agile in thinking."
"Until this moment, even in the crucial defensive round, he is basically playing without thinking, responding to every move... this is really, too confident."
"Almost not leaving himself any thinking time, it is simply treating this round of serious competition as the same fast shogi as when playing against player Tanabe."
Nan Tiao Wu Zi, upon hearing this, also looked at the screen carefully, and after noticing Natsume Chikage's move speed that was almost a second response, couldn't help but be dumbfounded:
"It is indeed like that..."
And Horikawa Kaori below the stage, hearing the commentary, was also crying and laughing.
She was happy that Natsume Chikage finally started to defend, but couldn't help but be anxious in her heart: you should at least think seriously, don't just play when you see it.
The opponent faced at this moment is no longer those weaker players before.
But Asahina Akatsuki, who is truly, strong, and has incomparable solid basic skills!
Fukuda Tsukasa on the side snorted disdainfully.
He felt that he had seen through the essence of Natsume Chikage's character.
Either he is an extremely arrogant guy, or he is a complete idiot!
In his view, Natsume Chikage was either not taking the match seriously at all and was purely there to have fun, doing whatever made him happy, or he was so arrogant that he thought all his opponents were weaklings, relying on a bit of talent and having not experienced many major tournaments, thus assuming he could keep on winning.
So he didn't bother to put his opponent in his eyes, thinking that every move was right, so he played fast shogi.
But no matter what his nature is, Natsume-kun turning to defense at this moment is already too late.
However, even if he loses, this kid being able to walk to this step has earned enough attention.
Fukuda Tsukasa shook his head repeatedly, only feeling that this is really a "lucky person" without a doubt.
But today, very clearly, the goddess of luck will not appear.
If the strength is not enough, it is impossible to beat Asahina Akatsuki!
As for Furukawa Masahiro and Furukawa Saio, the moment they saw Natsume Chikage turn to defense, a look of insight flashed in their eyes at the same time, and the two revealed a knowing and pleasant smile in unison.
And Tanabe Yuto naturally thought that Natsume Chikage's defense at this moment was just a desperate struggle at the end of the road, a futile struggle, so he didn't pay much attention.
He only felt that Akatsuki had basically determined victory.
Private Moonlight Academy.
High School Year 2 Class A classroom.
Sunlight shone through the window, casting light and shadow spots on the desk.
Yue Dao Lin was restless, her fingertips unconsciously rubbing the edge of the textbook, extremely wanting to take out her phone to check the live broadcast of the match.
But hindered by the fact that she was caught and warned by the teacher on the spot last time, she dared not commit again.
As a consistent honor student and good girl, she found it difficult to take that step.
However, thinking that her sweetheart was fighting on the distant competition field at this moment, but she couldn't know the battle situation, anxiety wrapped around her heart like dense vines.
She hesitated again and again, and during the gap when the teacher turned to write on the blackboard, she quietly reached her hand into her pocket, and the cold touch of the phone shell came.
She wanted to take a quick glance, even if it was just to see the result.
However.
That English teacher who had caught her last time seemed to have eyes on his back, turned around at this moment, his gaze like a torch, and deliberately coughed twice.
The sound was not loud, but it clearly drilled into Yue Dao Lin's ears.
Her movements froze instantly, she raised her eyes somewhat flustered, and met the teacher's meaningful, slightly reproachful gaze.
Her cheeks flushed "swish", she hurriedly pulled her hand back, sat upright, and her heart beat like a drum.
Her heart was full of annoyance and loss, but she was helpless... she could only wait until after class.
Xiyuanji Qilai, Xuecun Lingyin, and Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui were actually equally eager to watch the live broadcast in class.
But they were all students who strictly observed discipline in their bones.
Even if it was the idiot Classmate Classmate Tengyuan Kui, no matter how much she wanted to, subconsciously she thought she had to endure until after class.
However, deep in their hearts, the clouds of worry never dissipated.
After all, they had all heard that Natsume Chikage's practical experience in shogi was not rich, and the fourth round of the tournament was full of strong players, so the prospects were really hard to predict. ===== CHAPTER 637 =====
