In fact, I can add unlimited points

"Hmm?" Director Kanda couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise when he heard Sakayanagi Narimori's sentiment. "You've made up your mind already? Why don't you wait a little longer? When technology becomes more advanced, perhaps there will be a more suitable treatment for Arisu's heart disease."

Sakayanagi Seimori shook his head. "While it's true that we can still delay this, the family is already pressing us. They're worried that if we don't start training a successor, my position as chairman will be completely separated from the Sakayanagi family."

As he said this, Sakayanagi Narimori even glanced at his colleague across from him, causing Director Kanda to chuckle.

To a certain extent, the weakness of the Sakayanagi family is beneficial to the other directors of the board of directors.

The chairman knew this very well, but he had no other thoughts. Ever since he knew that Arisu's heart disease was difficult to cure, he knew that sooner or later he would face the predicament he is in today.

If given the chance, he would certainly want to pass on his position, connections and wealth to his descendants.

But looking at Arisu's physical condition, it is obviously impossible for him to inherit the position of Chairman of the High-Level Development Council. After all, for politicians, strong stress resistance and abundant energy are essential.

What's worse is that because of his daughter's congenital heart disease, it is impossible for her to consummate the marriage and give birth to the next generation. Even if he wants to recruit a son-in-law or adopt a son-in-law and pass the Sakayanagi family to his son-in-law, he can't do it.

As for surrogacy, I'm sorry, but Sakurajima does not support this kind of behavior morally, ethically or legally.

According to the traditional customs here, compared to surrogacy, it is more acceptable to all family members to directly adopt a child.

"Ever since I learned about Arisu's heart disease, I haven't been very strict with her education. I just want her to be happy in the future."

In fact, it is impossible to strictly require him to do so. After all, before high school, Arisu Sakayanagi had never even attended school and spent most of his time in the hospital.

But this is not a big problem.

If Arisu's heart disease cannot be cured, the Sakayanagi family will be handed over to the adopted son of the branch. If he is lucky enough to be cured, he will be able to recruit an outstanding son-in-law in the future.

In this case, Arisu Sakayanagi's own talent is actually not important, at least not as important as her health and psychology.

"But perhaps because of my indulgence, or perhaps because of his experience as a weakling, Arisu has developed a competitive nature since I don't know when, and has a particularly deep obsession with the concept of 'genius'."

At this point, the chairman's face showed a bitter expression, "Now that I'm still here, the Sakayanagi family can still give her the confidence to face everything, so this competitive spirit is nothing."

"When I'm gone, the Sakayanagi family name will be passed to my adopted son. By then, will my successor still be able to tolerate and protect her as before?"

The chairman believed that at least while he was alive, he could provide Arisu with the best living environment and protect her from all wind and rain.

But everyone will die, and he cannot protect Youqi for a lifetime.

After I am gone, most of the family's assets, including the position of Chairman of Kodoku Cultivation, will be handed over to the heir to the family name.

The remaining wealth might allow Arisu to live a life of ease and comfort, but it would hardly allow her to do what she wants without any scruples like she does now.

"So, you're just going to let her cause trouble for the Aragaki kid and watch her fail?"

Director Kanda probably understood Sakayanagi Seimori's thoughts and looked at his old friend across from him with a headache. "To make this lesson more profound, you allowed this incident to get you involved. Just to make her realize that you can't protect her forever?"

After all, if only Arisu Sakayanagi suffered losses, even if he failed a hundred times, it wouldn't mean much.

The girl's confidence has always been the highly cultivated chairman. As long as there is no problem with this umbrella of protection, she can always transfer the cost to others and treat all competition with a playful attitude.

What if you lose the game?

"While I can still protect Arisu from the wind and rain, it wouldn't be a bad thing to let her experience some setbacks from her peers."

The chairman's calm voice echoed in the office, "When she officially comes of age, unless she stays away from high society and lives a peaceful and tranquil life, she will eventually have to face those wolves and tigers."

Just like when he faced Shun Aragaki, Ryuji Kanzaki, Rokusuke Koenji and others at a high level of training, the advantage that Arisu Sakayanagi gained by relying on his status is only useful for people from ordinary families, and does not mean much to people of the same level.

In this situation, if she were to provoke those who were unwilling to give face to the Sakayanagi family without authorization, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chairman Sakayanagi doesn't want this to happen in the future.

After all, he is not a superman, and it is impossible for him to arrive on time every time. Any delay may lead to tragedy.

To be frank, given the girl's physical condition, what she fears most is being frightened or provoked.

After noticing Arisu's growing self-esteem and competitive spirit, the chairman always worries about her future. After all, not everyone is willing to compromise themselves and be considerate of her congenital heart disease.

"But if you do this, you're destroying the image of Koukou Ikusei High School. It'll be difficult not only for the board of directors, but also for the government, and even..." Director Kanda gestured to the sky, "Have you considered Mr. Onijima's opinion?"

"Don't worry, I will limit the impact to a controllable range."

The chairman is very confident about this. After all, if it weren't for people like Aragaki Shun and Kanzaki Ryuji who also have deep backgrounds, with his status, he really doesn't need to care about the opinions of ordinary students.

"Wait, you don't mean to..."

Director Kanda suddenly remembered something and looked at the chairman in disbelief.

"Did you notice?" Sakayanagi Narimori nodded slightly. "Outside, Ayanokouji-sensei has been actively carrying out activities. This is also giving me a headache."

"I should be taking a break after the next batch of advanced training students start school. So, it's okay to take a break a little earlier."

"No wonder you wanted to bring back the White Room's greatest masterpiece. So everything was already planned?"

Director Kanda thought of a special student in Class D of the first grade and sighed with sudden realization, "The struggle between Mr. Naoes and Mr. Onijima continues..."

After confirming this, he stopped thinking about the details and just asked the most crucial question, "Even if you need to leave school for a while, at least you have to hand over the chairman's job, right?"

"I know, so I won't officially leave school until after next semester."

At this point, the chairman's face showed a slight smile again. "Then I'll ask you to temporarily serve as the acting chairman and take over the various responsibilities of Advanced Development High School."

"Then, will I also be the one to shoulder the pressure from Mr. Ayanokouji?"

Director Kanda's eyes flashed with suspicion, "Are you so kind?"

Yes, it’s kindness!

After all, the faction that High School belongs to and the faction that Ayanokouji Atsuomi belongs to are in a competing relationship with each other.

If Ayanokouji Atsuomi wants to place his own people in Gaokouyucheng, he will have to pay a series of prices through the exchange of interests.

It looked like Sakayanagi was almost done with the other party, and now he just needed to find a legitimate excuse to run away early so that he could take over and squeeze some more out of Mr. Ayanokouji.

But he himself is still far from Mr. Ayanokouji, who is, after all, someone who can challenge Prime Minister Onigashima. If he wants to communicate with him on an equal footing, he has to invite Congressman Aragaki... So, Mr. Onigashima just won the election, and now he wants to win over Congressman Aragaki, who is also the former Speaker?

Not sure if his idea was right, Director Kanda made a decision and called to inquire.

"Giving me such a big piece of cake, and even involving Teacher Aragaki in this, what are you thinking?"

Seeing Kanda's cautious look, Sakayanagi Narimori smiled and decided to tease him, "I think the kid from the Aragaki family is pretty good. Can you see if he can get along with the former Speaker..."

"If you don't want Mr. Aragaki to fight you to the death, you'd better give up this idea!"

Director Kanda interrupted Sakayanagi Seimori without even thinking.

Are you crazy? How dare you set your sights on the heir of the Aragaki family and ask me to propose it?

"That's a pity..."

Because he had expected this, Sakayanagi Narimori was not disappointed. He knew too well how difficult it was to find a suitable and excellent son-in-law or adopted son.

Ever since Arisu was diagnosed with heart disease and was told that the chances of a complete cure were slim, he has been working hard on this.

If they really could find the right person, Sakayanagi Narimori would have brought Arisu home when he was a child.

At that time, let him and Arisu develop more feelings. Even if they cannot become husband and wife in the future, after the other party inherits his position, he can still take care of Arisu for the rest of his life as an older brother.

It's a pity that he has never found someone who can shoulder his expectations...

.........

At the same time, on the rooftop of the teaching building, Sakayanagi, who had not yet seen the post posted by Aragaki Shun, had just gathered all the people in his faction and was happily doing ideological work on them.

"...Aragaki-san has already confirmed your names as enemies through the broadcast. Do you still think you can get off halfway?"

"Give up your idle fantasies. This war has already begun. You can only continue to raise the stakes and support me in completely defeating the enemy. Otherwise, those who were expelled from the senior class will serve as a warning to you."

"Or do you have the courage to betray me further after already offending the leader of Class A?"

Being questioned like this, the people from the Sakayanagi faction looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long silence, they finally had no choice but to accept the reality.

Someone stood up and sighed in confusion, "Sakayanagi, can we really win?"

The petite silver-haired girl, with a condescending air, replied without hesitation, "Why doubt it? Believe me, you will win!"

131. The Sensational Campus; Arisu Sakayanagi's Self-Destructive Journey

After filling everyone in the Sakayanagi faction with chicken soup and making them believe that they would win, the little princess of Class B had these chess pieces follow her instructions and start guiding public opinion about Aragaki Shun online.

"I don't understand. What's the point of this?"

Looking at the numerous discussion threads on the campus forum, the purple-haired girl standing next to Sakayanagi Arisu suddenly spoke up, "Given that man's personality, this kind of rumor barrage is at best like flies and mosquitoes; it'll annoy him for a while, but it won't actually cause any damage, right?"

"Oh~ Masumi seems to know Aragaki quite well. Did they know each other before?"

"That man who was so arrogant that he challenged the senior club at the beginning of the school year, isn't his character known to the whole school?"

Kamuro Masumi made a face of disgust, as if she was speechless at Sakayanagi's deliberate act of stupidity, "Don't tell me that in your eyes, I don't even have this basic judgment."

"I see. It seems I really underestimated Masumi."

Sakayanagi teased her little follower with a smile, and when she saw her expression growing increasingly impatient, she calmly explained, "Like I said from the beginning, this action is just a declaration of war."

"Ever since our last chess game, Aragaki-san seems to have been looking down on me."

"In his eyes, I'm probably someone who doesn't have any great abilities, but is very competitive. Because of my family background and illness, I'm difficult to interact with, right?"

Although it was clearly a questioning tone, when Kamuro Masumi heard it, he could feel a biting coldness like a winter cold wave.

The purple girl shuddered involuntarily and looked at the indifferent Sakayanagi Arisu with some surprise. She probably never expected that the person who ordered the classmates in Class B around in a playful manner every day would actually show such a frightening look.

"I hope to compete with Aragaki-san again, using wisdom as our weapon and giving it our all within the rules of this school."

"But he probably won't agree. After all, he already has too many advantages in the campus competition. There's no need for him to cripple himself and engage in a private duel with me."

"So, I need to send out a declaration of war in advance to motivate him and make him pay attention to me."

In Sakayanagi's eyes, this rumor campaign was nothing more than a game. It was enough to attract the other party's attention, and she never thought about how much harm it could really cause him.

Her target was actually the others gathered around the leader of Class A, and even the onlookers from Class C and Class D of the first grade.

It's difficult to create and maintain an image, but it only takes one or two rumors to destroy it.

Gossip can melt metal, and constant criticism can destroy a person!

The information on the letters that she initially asked Hashimoto Masayoshi to spread about Aragaki Shun's junior high school days was basically true, but it ignored the cause and effect.

In this case, no matter how the other party refutes the rumor, it is impossible to make everyone believe it.

Three people make a tiger. As long as most people have doubts about their image, they will inevitably be reserved when interacting with them in the future.

In the days to come, she only needs to gradually widen this gap, and she will be able to gradually separate herself from the forces surrounding Aragaki Shun.

Arisu Sakayanagi likes this unconventional and deadly method!

In the past two months, the opponent has established an overwhelming advantage over the lower classes. If he is allowed to continue snowballing, the two of them will have no chance to compete on the same stage in the future.

Therefore, it is not enough to simply follow the kingly way to accumulate strength. Relatively speaking, it is easier to directly destroy the other party's interpersonal relationships and make him fall back into a lonely state.

"It's a bit surprising that Aragaki didn't even bother to refute the rumors, but instead used the student union's authority to further amplify the deterrent effect of these rumors."

"This move is particularly brilliant," Sakayanagi exclaimed as if she were an outsider. "There's no need to worry about what others think. We just need to make them understand who they can and can't offend!"

Aragaki Shun's way of responding was to openly declare to all the students of Gaokou Education: It's none of your business whether the rumor is true or not, but I really have the power to punish your violence and expel you. If you have the courage, just stand up and try it!

To prove this, he used his prestige to collect letters from most first-year students, and then used the student union broadcast to directly inform those who were unwilling to cooperate.

All the first-year students were forced to be divided into two camps at this moment, and the power of the former overwhelmingly surpassed that of the latter.

In this situation, even those idiots in Class D should know clearly who is the uncrowned king of the first grade.

Later, Hashimoto Masayoshi, who was suspected to be the executor of this incident, was taken away by the student union on the spot, which further increased the deterrent power of the other party... At this point, even the members of the Sakayanagi faction were uneasy.

The reason they were still willing to follow her was simply that they had already offended Aragaki Shun and did not dare to betray the chairman's daughter again.

But this is not enough!

Because of Aragaki Shun, she now has too few people at her disposal, and most of the people in the Sakayanagi faction are more realistic and sophisticated egoists.

To say that this group of people were loyal to her was, of course, nonsense.

The reason they were willing to follow her orders now was simply because they believed she could help them graduate from Class A and give them a better future.

Once this hope was shattered, Aragaki Shun reached out to recruit them again, giving them a second choice. This group of subordinates who seemed to be still useful would definitely not mind betraying them on the spot.

So now, even though she knows the effect won't be very good, the little princess of Class B still chooses to have all members of the Sakayanagi faction post on the campus forum to guide public opinion about Aragaki Shun.

If common interests cannot be achieved for the time being, the only way is to strengthen internal cohesion through external pressure.

Now everyone has participated in this public opinion offensive, and we are all comrades in the same boat.

Even if Aragaki Shun is magnanimous and willing to let bygones be bygones with the Sakayanagi faction's pawns, can you still expect him to continue to spend 20 million to help the enemy switch classes?

"...Also, that doesn't mean there won't be other gains from this public opinion campaign."
