Okay fuck it. I don’t care. I’m going to write these reimagines for the Akatsuki because the studio and Kishi has done with them is not very well thought out in my opinion. Like seriously? What’s the point of creating this extremely powerful group just to have them rugs for the main characters? I don’t really give a shit what people say tbh. The Akatsuki as a whole had a lot of potential, but heaven forbid that Kishi just keep one group of villains instead of introducing 50 million of them.
Anyways, this is my attempt in reworking the concept for them in hopes of creating something a bit stronger. A lot of it will be going off canon that was given to us, but like I said, it will be reimagined here. This is merely for fun; I don’t want people breathing down my neck or anything like that. I’ve been thinking this through for a while now. It just happens because I like world building.
Here’s the rundown list of what I have so far:
Akatsuki’s presence is known, but any actual information is not known by many. Many villages have found it to be extremely difficult to dig up any useful information due to Tobi and Zetsu making sure the group’s tracks are covered up.
All the members’ identities are a mystery, except for the large amount of underlings the organization has. Every member does the infamous Akatsuki cloak, but so do the underlings. The only way to tell who are actual members is by their mask. Each member has their own mask that is based on their rings and maybe even a god since it was rumored that the Akatsuki were based on some gods. I will have to do more research in this however. Zetsu also does not have a mask or even a cloak.
Including the masks, each of the members goes by a code name that decided by them. Hidan may be the only one people actually know since he most likely refuses to hide himself.
The cloaks are too bulky for them to fight in, but they are mainly used for colder conditions or to protect themselves from bad weather while traveling.
All members have an uniform that mainly consists of enough mesh to act as armor and light clothing. Each is somewhat stylized for each individual.
Akatsuki has a lot of control over the black market and areas that have high activity of crimes. This is mainly thanks to Kakuzu and his connections. This also allows them to have a steady and large money flow.
Sasori and Zetsu act the group’s main source of information. Sasori has a shit ton of followers of his own that act as gathers for him. Zetsu simply observes targets/things from afar and slowly gather information that way. He is more or less the tracker and watch dog. He’ll be the first to know if anything is up.
Obito is simply known as Tobi to everyone, and the members are very much aware of his presence. He is not the leader, nor does he want to be. However, he does manipulate Nagato for his own gain. He has a mask still, but it isn’t like the one in canon. It’s simply a plain white mask with nothing too special. I feel like as someone who sees himself as no one that they would try to be as faceless as possible.
Pein is still a dead body, and no one other than Konan, Obito, and Zetsu knows.
Konan is actually the one who gets shit done because she’s bad ass.
That’s all I got for now. Sorry for the long post.
