The Queen's Gambit | GonKillu

In 1958, a 14 year old chess prodigy Gon Freecss won the US Championship, and got the attention of the at the time best chess player in Russia, Killua Zoldyck. But Gon was dead-set on being the World Chess Champion, and after america, the Russians were next.

A deep hatred for the Russians boiled in Gon's blood, for one of them killed his parents. His Aunt bought him a chessboard since he had asked for it, and he taught himself all the moves of the pieces, even if Mito took away the board he would memorize the moves in his head. Killua himself grew up with nothing but chess, forced to play or else his parents would beat him. Conditioned to never loose, the punishment death if he ever did..

Now in 1972, the two boys face eachother in Iceland to settle who is more deserving of the title of World Chess Champion, but will Gon's passion on the board melt the Russian boy's heart?
