Chapter 712:

Yuusuke vs Yumehara

En Passant Grandmaster


With the team spot on the line, Yuusuke opened the game by moving his knight to f3, with Yumehara moving his pawn to d5. He then moved his pawn to c4, which Yumehara decided to promptly capture with his d-pawn, setting up pawn e4. Yumehara then moved his knight to c6, allowing Yuusuke to capture the pawn at c4 with his bishop. But then he made the head scratching play of bishop d7. Yuusuke didn't see the right move though, and moved his queen to b3.

But then, Yumehara moved his knight to f6, causing Yuusuke's jaw to drop. "What? Why are you gaping like a loon. It's unsightly. Hmm, though maybe if you tied your hair up in pigtails, that might make you look cuter," he scoffed.

"Yeah, fuck you. Checkmate," Yuusuke snarled as he captured the pawn at f7 with his bishop, winning the game.

"What!? No! IMPOSSIBLE! I WAS CHEATED!"

"Nope, you lost like a dunce. Now outta here, we're signing this guy," the aide grumbled.
