ABOUT AKATSUKI
Akatsuki is the name of the group in the anime and manga series Naruto. Akatsuki (暁; Literally meaning "Dawn" or "Daybreak"). Akatsuki goal is to control the world with absolute power. First collect all nine bijuu. Then with great power, they will build their own villages and waged war throughout the country. They will build a village that could take on any task; including murder, assault, kidnapping, war and other dirty tasks. To build the village, they require large amounts of money. so for a while the Akatsuki accept low-paid mission (this made some countries prefer them to carry out a specific mission)
Akatsuki members worked in groups, each of two complementary advantages and disadvantages of each.
In gathering / sealing biju, Akatsuki using a jutsu / seal to move the beast into the body of one of its members. With the seal, Akatsuki can call a statue to suck bijuu from the Jinchuuriki's body. Name stance seal Kyuu Fuujin is a Fuuinjutsu Gernyu.
The Akatsuki symbol.
Akatsuki members have a very distinctive wardrobe, which could give them away if a village is alerted of their presence. Members wear long, dark cloaks with red clouds, a red interior, and a chin-high collar. Tobi and the members of Taka wear a similarly marked hooded mantle. The red clouds represent the rain of blood that fell in Amegakure during its wars, and were seen as a symbol of justice by its original members.[15] All members wear black nail polish on their fingers and toenails, although the colours vary in the anime, and may wear a conical straw hat with small ornamental torques and tassels hanging down over their faces. The hats may be used to move around in the general population unnoticed, or for when the weather requires one.[16] Some members cross out the symbol on their forehead protectors to symbolise the broken ties with their former villages, a practice originating with Nagato and his rival faction in Amegakure's civil war. Others members simply cease wearing them altogether, for several reasons. Everyone also wears a ring with a kanji on different fingers depending on who the member is.
The various rings are:
- Right thumb: 零 (rei, "zero"); worn by Pain. Its colour is purplish-grey.
- Right index finger: 青 (Ao, shō, "blue," "green"); worn by Deidara. Its colour is teal.
- Right middle finger: 白 (bya, "white"); worn by Konan. Its colour is white.
- Right ring finger: 朱 (shu, "vermilion," "scarlet"); worn by Itachi Uchiha. Its colour is red.
- Right little finger: 亥 (gai, "sign of the boar"); worn by Zetsu. Its colour is green.
- Left little finger: 空 (kū, "sky," "void"); worn by Orochimaru. Its colour is slate blue.
- Left ring finger: 南 (nan, "south"); worn by Kisame Hoshigaki. Its colour is yellow.
- Left middle finger: 北 (hoku, "north"); worn by Kakuzu. Its colour is dark green.
- Left index finger: 三 (san, "three"); worn by Hidan. Its colour is orange.
- Left thumb: 玉 (gyoku, "jewel," "ball," also the black king in shogi); worn by Sasori and later by Tobi. Its colour is purple.
Teams
Akatsuki teams are put together in teams of two to exploit combined
strengths for the organisation's goals to be met. The duos assembled
usually share a distinct commonality, like Hidan's and Kakuzu's
immortality, Deidara's and Sasori's artistic approach to ninjutsu and
Itachi's and Kisame’s killing comrades under orders.
An unruly yet arguably the most effective team; a team that seemed unstoppable when together, something that Shikamaru
commented on for the need to separate the duo. Pain decided to put
these two together because of their unique abilities. Hidan could not be
killed as a result of becoming the successful "Jashin
experiment", even by decapitation, and Kakuzu could easily go into a
rage and kill anyone around him, including his partner. Therefore,
Kakuzu could go berserk and not worry about Hidan's well-being. They
refer to themselves as the "Immortal Combo" (不死コンビ, Fushi Konbi), because of their own methods of avoiding death. Kisame jokingly referred to them as the "Zombie Combo" (ゾンビコンビ, Zonbi Konbi).
They have shown the most hostility towards each other due to a
conflict of interest; Kakuzu saw the rituals and beliefs of Hidan's religion
to be a waste of time, while Hidan saw Kakuzu's willingness to do
blasphemous things and his greediness to be unbearable, not to mention
that Kakuzu's job as a bounty hunter usually got on Hidan's nerves. As a
result of their sideline in collecting bounties and conducting rituals,
this team was usually late in the line of work. Despite this, they work
flawlessly in battle by using Kakuzu's reckless attack style in
conjuncture with Hidan's immortality.
- Pain & Konan
A team that functioned very well with each other, as evidenced by
Konan's loyalty towards Pain. Acting as the leader of Akatsuki, Pain
directed the rest of the organisation to their respective goals; his
most direct interaction with the other members was using the Sealing Technique: Phantom Dragons Nine Consuming Seals. In addition, Pain was the leader of Amegakure, and used the village as a type of headquarter for Akatsuki, while Konan served as the village's second-in-command.
- Sasori & Deidara
- Target(s): One-Tailed Shukaku (Deidara, Sealed), Nine-Tailed Demon Fox (Deidara, Failed)
Formed by the two artists of Akatsuki, Sasori and Deidara worked well
for the most part but had conflicting ideas on art. Sasori believed all
art was to be kept permanent, such as his puppets, while Deidara thought art was to be instantaneous, then gone forever, such as his Explosive Clay.
Ironically though, Sasori was impatient and liked to finish things
quickly while Deidara liked to take his time. Sasori also had a network
of spies that he manipulated (in the form of mind control) to aid
Akatsuki in their affairs. Deidara was formerly a terrorist bomber for
hire who was later recruited by Itachi. Interestingly, both members of
this team made the conscious decision to die, Sasori by allowing himself
to be impaled by the puppet replicas of his parents and Deidara blowing
himself up, thus becoming art.
- Deidara & Tobi
- Target(s): Three-Tails (Tobi, Sealed)
Formed after Sasori's death, Tobi was introduced as his easily found
replacement. Despite Tobi's eagerness to please his "senpai", his
childish attitude was seen as an annoyance to Deidara's expectations of
the organisation. Despite the eminent irritation, the two worked well
together, as evidenced by Tobi planting Deidara's explosive clay mines
underground during Deidara's last stand against Sasuke.
Deidara also tries to protect Tobi, although the latter usually annoys
him with his playful personality. After Deidara's death, Tobi revealed
his true personality and began to actively work to his own goals.
- Itachi Uchiha & Kisame Hoshigaki
- Target(s): Nine-Tailed Demon Fox (Itachi, Failed), Four-Tails (Kisame, Sealed), Eight-Tails (Kisame, Failed)
A team that functioned very well together and was highly effective. The pair completed almost every assignment Pain
gave them with little trouble with the Nine-Tails being the only known
exception. With Itachi working as a double agent, however, Itachi failed
this mission purposely. Unlike most Akatsuki teams, Itachi and Kisame
got along pretty well; Kisame did as Itachi had asked him
unquestioningly and they would often converse casually when not in
combat. In his battle against Killer B, Kisame failed in his mission to
capture the Eight-Tails. However, this was later shown to be a ploy
designed by Tobi to infiltrate the Land of Lightning. Before that, however, Kisame was able to capture the Four-Tails.
Zetsu, an enigmatic member with two personalities.
- Zetsu
- Function: Spy, Auxiliary
Although not exactly a two-man team, Zetsu has two personalities,
which effectively makes him a team of two. Since each side has a level
of individuality, they frequently argue with each other over which
battles to watch, among other things. The two sides can also split
apart, allowing each personality to act individually. Both of his sides
seem to have an awareness of what the other is doing or thinking, making
them a very effective team, although the white half has been shown to
have a tendency to ask the black half questions that would be
unnecessary if they completely shared their thoughts.
Another unique feature of Zetsu is his ability to create clones. Those clones are described by Kisame Hoshigaki as living beings comparing with the regular clones made of chakra.
- Target(s): Eight-Tails (Failed)
When Akatsuki's ranks are thinned to five members, Tobi
enlists the aid of Taka, who shares the desire for the destruction of
Konoha. To complete their goals, Tobi has ordered Taka to hunt down the
Eight-Tails while Akatsuki (particularly Pain) hunts for the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox.
Technically, the members of Taka are not full members of Akatsuki, as
they do not possess the rings worn by each of the primary members.
However, they have been wearing Akatsuki cloaks (albeit not with high
collars but with hoods), signifying their affiliation with the
organisation. After catching what appeared to be Killer B, Sasuke
claimed that Taka was no longer affiliated with Akatsuki. Out of all the
members, however, only Sasuke chooses to remain affiliated with Tobi
and Akatsuki after Taka's disbandment, which has become quite fragile as
Sasuke eventually killed White Zetsu for the sake of testing his new
powers.
