Start with Hayasaka Ai

"The reason is, even the student council president can't just abolish a large sports club like that!" Perhaps emboldened by the number of people around him, the basketball club president clenched his fists and replied.

Shirogane glanced at him. "Reason? Last year, we didn't even qualify for the Tokyo regional round of the national competition. We lost to Seirin, then Kaijo, then Kaijo, then Shutoku... We lost to every high school in the area, but we never lost to a girls' school. I thought you'd learn from your mistakes after a year, but I didn't expect you to even register this year."

"That's because there's no way we can win. The six players from the Age of Miracles are completely useless. There's no way we can win! Last year's basketball team captain was devastated and suffered severe psychological trauma. His legs go weak at the sight of them, and he'll never be able to return to the basketball court again."

The basketball club president's words opened the floodgates for the other club members to talk, and they all started to complain.

"As the game progressed, the opponent disappeared from the court, then the ball disappeared, and finally even the backboard disappeared!"

"Stay in the air for 15 seconds. Jump up and stay in the air for 15 seconds. Is that still a human?"

"The entire basketball court is 100% shot-scoring. That's not an exaggeration. How can you win if you can only shoot the opponent under your own basketball hoop?"

"What's even scarier is that there are people who can make us fall simply by looking at us. It's not scientific at all."

"That's pure killer basketball. The pass sends out spiral qigong waves. Trying to intercept it feels like my arm is about to break..."

The members of the basketball club have different opinions. To put it simply, later on, the eye technique that can copy other people's basketball skills, the observation Haki that can see the future, and the Ultimate Freedom Technique all appeared.

Are you really not playing with some migrant worker comic high school?

"That's enough! Stop insulting my intelligence—"

Baiyin's words immediately quieted down the noisy scene. Even her ally Kaguya Shinomiya was a little affected. She wanted to say something, but closed her mouth halfway through.

Well behaved.jpg

"All this talk is just an excuse for your own cowardice this year. Ask yourselves, have you been training seriously since joining the basketball club? Or are you just playing around? Or did you join because you wanted to be more popular with women, so much so that you were still dating your girlfriend a few days before the competition?"

After hearing this, several people in the basketball club lowered their heads to look at the tips of their shoes.

When Baiyin first took a look at the background information of the basketball club and the detailed expenditure of last year, he exclaimed, wow, half of it was spent on buying nutritional supplements for the players and so-called "morale boosting".

A strong sense of déjà vu.

If they don't use it to make the first cut, it would be a waste of their only surplus value.

"President, you were a member of a mixed-up college before, so you might not understand the rules of Xiuzhi Academy. The school doesn't force clubs to achieve excellent results in competitions. As long as they can let members enjoy their youth, such as the social activities of the women's cheerleading team... perhaps you will understand it after a few days of experience in the club..."

The basketball club president made an obvious hint to Shirogane with an ambiguous look that every man could understand.

But before he could finish his words, he saw Shinomiya Kaguya's extremely dark and terrifying eyes out of the corner of his eye.

All the hairs on my body stood up.

"What rules of Junyuan could there be that I don't know?" Shinomiya Kaguya understood Shirogane's idea and supported him as if she were a husband and wife following his lead.

"Everyone, Shuchi-in is a prestigious school with a long history. Even now, with the aristocracy abolished, many people born into wealthy and prestigious families, who will shoulder the fate of the nation, study here. Your cowardly behavior is a complete disgrace to Shuchi-in. It is better to disband it right here."

The girl casually scanned all the basketball club members with her dark red eyes, and no one dared to look her in the eye.

"Shuzhiyuan doesn't support idlers. We don't provide such generous funding for clubs to indulge you. Instead of wasting limited funds on a bunch of cowardly lizards like you who don't even dare to participate in competitions, we should transfer the money to clubs that need it more."

"President, and Shinomiya-san..." Beads of sweat dripped down the basketball club president's forehead, his Adam's apple moving up and down with difficulty. "I'm sorry, please give us another chance! There are some among us who truly love basketball. It's not too late to qualify. Please give the basketball club a chance to survive!!"

He immediately bowed 90 degrees.

At this time, six members of the basketball club also stood up and bowed, "Please give us another chance——"

Originally, Baiyin didn't necessarily want to kill the basketball club with one blow, he just wanted to find an excuse to cut the funding for its activities.

Now it seemed that there was an unexpected effect. He nodded, took out the notebook and made some changes, which was considered to be the final word on the basketball club.

"For now, the funding will be reduced to 40% of its original amount. We'll adjust it based on our performance in the national competition. Furthermore, club funds will no longer be used for nutritional supplements or 'morale boosting'."

Closing the notebook, Baiyin picked up the basketball that almost hit Shinomiya Kaguya with one hand and threw it towards the basket that spanned almost one and a half basketball courts.

The basketball cut through the stagnant air, drawing a perfect parabola in the air. The crisp sound of the basketball going into the net made the pupils of everyone present shrink suddenly.

"I hope to see you training at 7am tomorrow. Those who don't show up will be considered to have quit the club."

Chapter 36: Kill the Kendo Club Again

As everyone watched, Kaguya Shinomiya walked out of the basketball club's sports field with Shirogane.

Although she looked as elegant and composed as ever on the outside, her heart was far less calm than she appeared.

What’s going on? What’s going on? What’s going on?!

He shot it in from such a long distance in one go—it stunned every member of the basketball club! They were speechless.

This is so handsome! !

It’s simply cool, cooler, coolest!!

No, no, calm down. You must not let this kind of disturbing emotion continue to spread. Your IQ will drop.

Shinomiya Kaguya slapped her cheeks.

In order to divert her attention, she reviewed the situation briefly and found that if she, as the student union president, were to cut funding, she would definitely not be able to cut it by 40% like Baiyin did.

At most, it can be cut to 80%, which is still the kind that will cause complaints from the entire basketball community.

It's impossible to be as relaxed as Baiyin, who solved all the problems perfectly with just three moves.

First the stick to intimidate, then the carrot to comfort, and finally ending with a cool shot.

In fact, strictly speaking, there are only the first two moves. The final ultra-long-distance shot is just the icing on the cake to make others more convinced.

"..."

Wait, I don't seem to have played any role in this operation! I've become a complete vase character!

Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly realized this serious problem, and her inner world seemed to be lit up like a flash of lightning that cut through the darkness.

This can't go on any longer.

You should know that there may be a shortage of other things in Xiuzhiyuan, but there will never be a shortage of girls with outstanding looks. After all, after generations of genetic improvement, the children of high-ranking officials and chaebols rarely have appearances below average.

If there is no indispensable value, then it doesn’t matter who is around the president!

"I don't need worthless women." He said this coldly, while hugging other women and kicking himself away in the future, which was absolutely unacceptable—

Kaguya Shinomiya had already started biting her thumb nail in her heart.

"President, shall we proceed in order from now on?"

"Well, the next department is the Kendo Club."

Baiyin slowed down his pace a little. He was used to walking alone and forgot that it would be difficult for a girl to keep up with him at a normal speed.

Just now, Kaguya Shinomiya was completely out of touch.

"There's nothing wrong with the Kendo Club's budget on paper. 95% is spent on equipment purchases and maintenance, and the remaining 5% is reimbursement for competitions. We'll just have to take a quick look at the actual situation."

"Okay, President."

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded slightly, seemingly listening carefully to Shirogane's analysis, but her fingertips were unconsciously tugging at the hem of her skirt.

The Kendo Club is considered one of the more outstanding clubs among the many clubs in Shuchiin. Its leader is Kojima, the son of the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Being able to become the captain in the first year of high school, his own strength is naturally unquestionable, and he is also a recognized strong player in the sports club.

"This is the Kendo Club's activity area."

Pushing open the door of the Kendo Club, the sound of metal protective gear colliding and the smell of sweat mixed with the scent of bamboo hit me in the face.

The members who were practicing saw the student council president and vice president arrive and stopped to look over.

"Good afternoon, both of you."

Kojima gently placed his bamboo sword on the shelf and took off his helmet. Beads of sweat still clung to his hair. "The Student Council President and Vice President have unexpectedly visited us. I wonder what they're talking about?"

"The amount of donations the school received from the alumni association this year was slightly less than last year, so we need to adjust the activity funds of various clubs."

Seeing that Shirogane didn't speak immediately, Kaguya Shinomiya took the initiative to step forward and explain the reason.

Huh? Why does it feel like I've become a sidekick?

In some situations, the personal maid also needs to speak for herself first.

Oh no, I think I’ve become Hayasaka.

"Adjust the budget?"

Xiaodao seemed quite generous. "Please feel free to visit. Our club has spent most of its funds on training props. They are all of high quality. We also clean and maintain them after every training session. The protective gear is clean and odor-free. If you are interested, you can try them out."

Baiyin went to the storage room and took a look. The data was almost consistent with the accounts.

"The Kendo Club is indeed an outstanding club at Shuchiin. We'll keep the funding this year as is."

Without any intention of joining the club, after completing the process, Shirogane was ready to take Kaguya Shinomiya and leave for the next club.

Just as he was about to step out the door, Kojima suddenly spoke up, "President Shirogane, that Longzhutao guy is the accountant for the student union, right?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

Sensing the hostility towards Longzhutao in his words, Baiyin retracted his foot that was about to leave.

"President Shirogane, although it was only a brief encounter, I can sense that you are a man of justice. So I'd like to give you a friendly reminder that she is the daughter of Longzhu Yushi, the boss of the wide-area underworld organization Longzhu Group. You must not take her lightly. It would be a permanent solution if you expelled her from the student council."

"Xiaodao, you seem to be dissatisfied with Longzhu Accounting."

"Of course, there's a saying that goes, 'Like father, like son, like daughter,' and 'like ...

Seeing Kojima's matter-of-fact attitude, Shirogane asked again, "From what you said, you know her very well, right? Are there any specific signs that she might become the kind of criminal you're talking about in the future?"

"I'm not saying she'll definitely commit a crime, but I'm saying she has the potential to become one. As for how well I know her, I haven't had much communication, but over the years we've been in the same school together, Long Zhutao has caused some incidents. If it weren't for Senior Zian, she would have stopped coming to school long ago."

"In the end, you're still just speaking to me based on your own assumptions. Do you think I'm blind and can't see reality? You can't pretend you didn't see such a provocation against me, or else where will your authority as the student council president be?"

Baiyin took two bamboo swords from the shelf, one in his left hand and one in his right hand, and waved them slightly to test the feel.

"Since we are in the Kendo Club, I will respond to your challenge with my sword. It is much easier to defeat someone than to convince him."

"You're so protective of her? Interesting. I was right, President. You're a straightforward man with a heart for justice, but you're a bit too partial to your own subordinates, making you easily deceived. So, I can only take the liberty of issuing a 'military warning'."

Kojima is also full of fighting spirit. Today, let him see how powerful the student council president is!

Chapter 37: Combat Breathing Method

Shinomiya Kaguya saw Kojima put on his armor, but Shirogane just stood there motionless. She asked with some confusion: "President, don't you know how to put on your armor? Let me help you."

"No, wearing armor is too troublesome, and I don't need that kind of thing."

"Don't try to be cool at this time."

Shinomiya Kaguya pouted in dissatisfaction, "President, don't underestimate the bamboo sword. Although it won't cause cutting wounds when it hits your body, it will still cause redness and swelling and hurt for a long time."

"Then I just need to avoid getting hit." Baiyin showed the two bamboo swords in his hand. "One sword is for defense, and the other is for attack. I have both offense and defense. Protective gear will only reduce my agility."

Do you think you're Miyamoto Musashi? Why are you using two swords?!

The girl was helpless and felt that Baiyin was acting completely impulsively this time.

Just because Longzhu Tao was spoken ill of, he went up to challenge the Kendo Club President. Was it just because of the simple reason that "as the president I have to protect the student council members"?

I'm afraid not.

Shinomiya Kaguya felt a little jealous, but at the same time she was thinking, if Shirogane heard someone saying bad things about her, would he stand up for her like he did today?

While the girl's thoughts were wandering, time in reality did not stop at all.

Seeing that Shirogane insisted on not wearing protective gear, Kojima frowned and said, "President, you may have excellent physical fitness, but don't underestimate the art of swordsmanship. Overconfidence will bring you pain."

"Minister Kojima doesn't need to worry about this."

Not only did Baiyin not wear any protective gear, but he also took off all the clothes on his upper body, revealing his strong and powerful body.

"If you can leave marks on me, I'll increase the Kendo Club's funding by 10% for each mark you leave. There's no upper limit. If I defeat you, go apologize to my subordinates."

Kojima's eyes widened instantly.

Of course, this wasn't for funding or an apology, but for President Shirogane's health—

Of course, his exclamation was not expressed in the same way as the female members beside him who were simply screaming because of the uncontrollable sexual desire of the men, but was an evaluation based on the standards of a soldier.

What a well-proportioned and perfectly shaped muscle!

Each muscle is tight and distinct, one more or one less will destroy the overall optimal structure. Compared with the bloated big guys trained in the gym specifically for bodybuilding competitions, Baiyin's muscle proportions are obviously the result of years of training through various aerobic training!

It's definitely not a newbie with no foundation.
