If Hida Daizu exp (following the use of his ability during a game) were to equip a Resilient Naginata (negating his -2C penalty) and then transfer it to someone else, would his Chi remain at 4, or would the -2C penalty resume immediately?

Martin Lund (rules official), 3 March 2008

Continuous negation effects (such as the non-triggered trait “This card can not gain Force bonuses” on a card in play) negate all relevant instantaneous, ongoing and continuous effects while the negation effect applies. If such an effect ceases to apply, ongoing effects do not reassert themselves, but continuous effects do.

Daizu's -2C penalty is an ongoing effect, and does not reassert itself.
