In the hokage office was now remaining only four people.
Sarutobi can't hold on much longer break the silence in the room.
" How can you be possible alive?, I was there, I saw your corpse that night. "
He doesn't know any other jutus that can bring back the dead except the second hokage reanimated jutus.
Megumi said " well the man killed me. But he made a big mistake by not cutting my head off "
megumi said while pointing to his head.
Hiruzen was not happy that with such party in the village he might make move against konoha.
" Lord third, we are even happier because his mother was part of the gekko clan, and am sure that his grandmother will be relieved that her grandson is alive."
The head of the gekko clan said.
Megumi look at the man who was showing sympathy to him but was having a negative thought but he was sure it was not a killing intent.
"Now megumi did you have idea of the mask man that attacked the village that night. And we still can't find your mother body since that night"
Third hokage knows that kaede was killed by danzo. But he can't feel safe when a mask man could enter and leave the village like it was his backyard .
Megumi was not taken by the third hokage innocent speech because he was reading his emotions when he mentioned his mother name meaning that he was the one that call the shot for his mother execution.
" You should leave that masks man and forget about my mother body to me"
Third was taken back when he heard this from megumi.
" Did you know the mask man? Tell use about his ability and we will get revenge for what he did to the village"
The head of the gekko clan and shikaku was also shocked about his discovery. But shikaku can tell that he will not disclose it to anybody because he can tell that megumi doesn't trust anyone again.
" Yes I knew who he was, and those who killed my mother" megumi replied with his eyes looking both the third and shikaku.
" But they are all mine to hunt "
The moment third hokage heard that he can tell this boy was not the same person that he could control so he let it go.
" What! How dare you said that to the hokage, did you know how many people died that night"
The head of gekko clan roar when he saw that this pitiful boy was withholding a secret that can help the village.
" It ok clan head of the gekko clan. Everything is for the village. Because "When the leaves dance, one shall find flames.
The shadow of the fire will flash upon the village…
and once again, the leaves shall bud anew."
Third hokage has to try his tactic to make the gekko clan head shut up.
He draw a pop from his smoking stick releasing the smoke to the air.
" I called you both clan heads on the issue of megumi to discuss what next for him as he is still young." Hiruzen said
The head of the gekko clan was happy hearing that. He can use the contract agreement to take in the boy and then discipline him since he can't sense chakra from him. Then he can walk as a slave.
Shikaku speak first " thank you Lord third. I knew that megumi and his mother has cut their tier from the Nara clan. and as the head I will accept the blame for been incompetent and not looking at the welfare of my one especially him being my nephew."
"And I remembered that during the Lord fourth,we have and agreement that he is still bearing his father name until he is 18 years old he can then change to any name he wants."
The gekko clan head mouth twitched when he heard the speech that shikaku drop, he remembers that the same family that can pay off the loan kaede was trap in saying that she is not part of them. And he remembered that the elders do the talking.
" Lord third, I want a free and fair judgement on the matter." He said while taking out a scroll and handing to the hokage to read the context.
" Lord third, kaede has not fulfilled her agreement with us and the she stated in there that if she failed we can take her child"
The gekko clan head said with tears .
Everyone in that room can tell he was exaggerating.
" How much is the remaining fee " hirazen asked.
" She was owning 150 million ryo" the gekko clan head stated.
" What!!". Both the third and shikaku was dumfounded as the price has increased from the one they knew.
" Clan head please can you explain how the fee is that high because I remembered that my brother paid five million and she also had paid five million. That's making 10 million and she was owning you 50 million" shikaku explained that even the third hokage was impressed that he was breaking it down.
"Hmm..the contract has a limited period that if she never pay back the fee will multiply and the money she paid was for her mother who was ill and for the growth of the gekko clan ."
The hokage was very annoyed hearing the rubbish that the clan head said.because he knows everything about kaede and the gekko clan and that was the reason why he recruited her into the anbu squad.
Before he could say anything megumi as walk up to where the gekko clan stood .
" I don't buy that rubbish you said because my mother told me how your clan and her mother maltreated her even wanted to force her into a marriage. But I will pay you in 2 month time"
Megumi said.
". How are you going to pay in 2 months, you can even use chakra , how are you going to be giving mission" the gekko clan taunt megumi by calling him a disgrace without saying the word disgrace.
Shikaku know one thing about his nephew is that he always wants people to underestimate him and him shikaku having read his power and see him back alive can know that megumi has is source but he also asked
" Did kaede left some money with you"
" Because you monkeys are bound to serve the village should apply to me "
" Am a sorcerer you should keep your peanut money to your self"
" I will pay you in two months and how i found the money is nobody business "
He said then he disappeared from the room, leaving the elders their speechless.
" I don't sense chakra in those move " they said In their mind
