join Akatsuki

Hidden Village of Rain

In the heart of the Hidden Village of Rain, a young man clad in an ANBU combat suit moves with purposeful strides toward a secluded meeting spot. His Leaf Village headband , slashed to signify his betrayal, is prominently displayed, and a sword rests on his back, hinting at his formidable skills. As he draws nearer, his thoughts drift to recent pivotal encounters: his cryptic dialogue with the man who calls himself Uchiha Madara and the intense, consequential meeting with Pain, the leader of this clandestine organization, who wields the legendary Rinnegan.

Flashback

The scene transitions to a tranquil river, where a small boat drifts lazily on the water's surface. Two figures are seated within. One is shrouded in a distinctive spiral-shaped mask, revealing only one eye, radiating an aura of hidden menace and secrecy. The other, dressed in a standard ANBU combat suit, maintains a chillingly composed demeanor. These are Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Itachi, who have massacre their own clan.

Obito, breaking the silence with a tone that veils his true intentions, says, "Within the organization, I am known as Tobi. I'm not one of the original members—merely an intern with no extraordinary skills. Don't expect anything remarkable from me."

Itachi, his eyes sharp and penetrating, replies with a hint of skepticism, "Why do you conceal your true identity?"

Obito's expression turns somber as he explains, "If it became known that Uchiha Madara is still alive, it would incite massive upheaval. Only the leader of Akatsuki, whom we are about to meet, knows my true identity."

Some Time Later

The scene shifts to a cavernous hideout shrouded in darkness, illuminated only by flickering torches that cast eerie shadows on the walls. As they enter, the firelight reveals two figures waiting—one man and one woman. Their eyes gleam with scrutiny as they observe the newcomers. The atmosphere is thick with anticipation and unspoken tension.

Pain, the leader, addresses Itachi with a voice imbued with authority and inscrutable depth, "I have heard much about you, Uchiha Itachi. Your deeds precede you."

Itachi remains stoically silent, his gaze unwavering and unreadable.

Pain continues, his voice laden with gravity, "Before you join our ranks, you must understand our vision." He pauses, allowing the weight of his words to settle before adding, "Akatsuki's goal is to establish true peace among shinobi. Instead of the fractured existence of the five great shinobi nations, we seek to unify the world under Akatsuki's rule."

Itachi absorbs the magnitude of Pain's declaration and finally responds, "That is a grand ambition."

Pain's gaze remains unyielding as he replies, "Indeed. This is why we gather only the most capable shinobi. Uchiha Itachi of the Hidden Leaf, we welcome you into Akatsuki. From this moment forward, you must sever your ties with Konoha."

With a solemn nod, Itachi reaches into his pouch, retrieves his Leaf Village headband, and slashes it with a precise, deliberate cut. The act signifies his betrayal and the end of his allegiance to Konoha. He looks back at Pain, a silent affirmation of his new path.

Pain concludes with an air of finality, "From now on, you are Itachi of Akatsuki," and hands him a ring, symbolizing his formal induction into the organization.

Present

To rule the world, one must defect ninja villages so they will definitely target Konoha. I need to gather intelligence to protect my village. The individuals I face are formidable: the man who calls himself Madara is likely the one who unleashed the Nine-Tails seven years ago, that the Fourth Hokage sacrificed himself to seal. He is not weak, and neither are the others. Pain possesses the Rinnegan, one of the three great dojutsu, known as the Eyes of the Sage of Six Paths. He is formidable as well. Even the woman accompanying them is not to be underestimated; her presence implies she is a Kage-level fighter. Three Kage-level fighters, plus others I have yet to meet.

It's time. Let's proceed.

Entering the building, I move deliberately, surveying the other members. Among them are: Orochimaru, one of the Sannin; Jūzō Biwa, one of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist; Sasori of the Red Sand; and Kakuzu, an S-rank missing-nin from Takigakure. Each is an S-rank traitor. This is going to be more challenging than I anticipated..

Pain said " This is the new member who is going to join us Uchiha Itachi ."

Points to be noted

1. I Don't remember if Orochimaru joined Akatsuki before itachi or after, i think it's later.

But this is au , it doesn't follow everything from original timeline.

2.current member of Akatsuki - pain, konan, Orochimaru, sasori, juzo, kakuzu.

3.shisui was not poisoned in this world , he was caught off gaurd by danzo sudden attack.

4.for now the subordinates list will only have Karin and sarada from au .

5.mc will do multiverse traveling but only his own multiverse. Regarding how ,any suggestions?

I am thinking about a new mode in gacha with which he can travel in Naruto multiverse,1 month there is 1 minute in his world with a cool down of 1 month,if he goes back again to that world it will continue from after he left . Or he can randomly select another world.you will understand after reading in future.

Anything else to add?

Also when demon slayers use their techniques what shown is visual effects, but with use of chakra they become visible . something like that.

Anything else to add?

Next chapters :

-It's real(Sasuke wakes up)

-Timeskip(1 year)

-Sarada uchiha (this sarada will be like anime, not strong , her father died, hokage died, boruto killed them, everyone else died,she doesn't meet kawaki in her world,

4 Otsutsuki came during her chunin exam.

Edo Tensei was used, etc)

If anyone else have any better background story give suggestions.

Remember shisui was part of anbu. He was called shisui the teleporter.

Other than minato with Flying Thunder God Technique , 4th raikage, naruto during 4th ninja war, Tobirama, hashirama, madara, like special characters ,Noelse can match his speed. Even sensory ninjas can't pinpoint his location due to his speed. Give me your opinion.

He was the youngest jonin.

Read down and comment

Also how should mc interact with summoned sarada choose:

1.just normal since she was not part of Uchiha massacre ( knowing she is itachi niece )

2.he will be strict with her , make her embarrassed by training her while

She weren't wearing any clothes. She has to train under waterfall without any clothes.

Remember shisui love his clan so when he see her he can't be emotionless knowing her uncle destroyed the clan and her father only took revenge on danzo, leaving other elders.

So he will misbehave with her at start or sometimes, despite knowing she is from au.

He will show her real ninja world , how curel this world really is which will start from saving Karin.

Should there be a r18 chapter?

Also no Haku, if I want subordinates it will be au characters or omniverse
