He was content. Though he was a bit wary that the exams were held in the Fire Union, the faction that had managed to pull a demand which would lower the profit of the trade with them. At least for the side of the Cloud, but Takeru was still content. He had heard that the match of Reyna had been in her favor. He wasn't sure what to expect of the Jinchuriki of the Sanbi, but he was still glad to hear that she had managed to win. Briefly he was wondering what somebody of his retinue would think of it. His retinue didn't only exist out of elite ANBU that were stations near and around the place where Takeru was. No, he had also a kunoichi that was just officially a chuunin as part of his retinue. The masked Raikage made no illusion to think that he could just order the kunoichi, Midori Sato, around. But he would still keep her close by. For now with just requesting it, but if needed the Raikage wouldn't shun away from using force. 

[b]''Lord Raikage-sama.''[/b] One of the chuunins that was part of the group that had traveled with the Kumogakure delicate, wanted to bring out another report. Sitting in his chair, Takeru had made it himself quite comfortable. [b]''Please, speak.''[/b] Takeru said. The chuunin dropped to one knee as he lowered his head. [b]''Most matches have been decided, but one hasn't been in the favor of Kumogakure.''[/b] Not really surprised as Takeru wasn't foolish enough to think that the Kumogakure genin were superior or such, he made a gesture that the man could continue.

Wavering, the chuunin brought out the report of Deidara's fight. This caused Takeru to stare at the man. For a second Takeru thought about who this Deidara was. [b]''Thank you for the report. You're dismissed.''[/b] Takeru said on a calm tone. Deidara Yuhiko. The boy who had been punished for his crimes by both the Fire Union as the Cloud. The Fire Union had decided to sentence several of the close relatives of Deidara to death. It became worse that Takeru had ordered that the boy was ordered to go through a rather harsh process. His memory would be read on what he had done. Information that provided some on a certain Moujin and some of Konohagakure. Though it didn't compensate for the loss of the demand that the Fire Union would cause, Takeru decided to not stop there. The boy would have those parts of his mind erased. Effectively removing that he knew that he had broken into the Raikage Office and his deeds as the certain Mist persona. It would prevent that the boy could try later to revolt or dare to say something about it once he would be older and maybe resent what had happened. Only Takeru had ordered that the boy would remember that his family was sentenced to death because of him, because he had committed treason and caused harm with his actions.

Only hearing now that the boy wasn't doing so well, to put it lightly, Takeru felt no remorse. In his opinion, the boy was a traitor and a criminal. It was rather pure irony that a genin of Konoha had dealt with him. [b]’’I think we will soon head to see how he is doing.’’[/b] Takeru said with a clear stern voice. It wasn’t only directed to the ANBU around him, but to somebody else as well. A friend of Deidara’s.
