Akatsuki was once an organisation full of power-hungry warriors which plays a central role in the Second Warriors War.

## First Warriors War

### Akatsuki's Invasion

The Akatsuki expected the warriors of different villages to invade InuYasha's homeland in hopes of getting the mystical jewel, The Jewel of Four Souls. During the events of Operation: Blow Away, as mentioned by Jūzō Biwa, Deidara and Sasori, they murdered the remaining warriors who failed to get the mystical object.

Seeing that Sasuke's invasion failed, Zetsu in secret monitors the event and relays the mesage to Pein who now leads the Akatsuki believes InuYasha, Bankotsu, Hinata Hyūga and Sesshōmaru are in possession of the Jewel of Four Souls and believes this sacred jewel to be crucial for the tailed beasts.

Pein leads his warriors to InuYasha's homeland to face only the four surviving warriors. With the deaths of the Akatsuki warriors, Itachi Uchiha was the only survivor. Demanding an explanation about the First Warriors War, Itachi explained to Sesshōmaru that the warriors had been misguided by Sasuke whose obssession for greed and immortality. Itachi explained further that he schemed other warriors to fight them, knowing they were about to die. That way, he would have gotten hold of the Jewel of Four Souls.

## Second Warriors War

### Sasuke's greed

After the death of Sasuke, Pein and his Akatsuki made their move onto the battlefield. Hidan's fight with Zaraki Kenpachi who believed that it was an enjoyable fight, however it would take away all the fun if he couldn't die. Hidan believed he successfully used his signature Curse Technique: Death Controlling Possessed Blood. Kenpachi feigned death to catch the near-invincible warrior before severing his head off.

### The Grand Rewind

The enemies aimed to bring back Sasuke in the hopes to form a greater alliance with other enemies. After performing the Grand Rewind, they were back to the start of the Second Warriors War, however the consequences led to time paradox where some warriors of the past came to the present - Madara Uchiha, the original Team Minato, Inu no Taishō and Organisation XIII. The Akatsuki were searching for Itachi, Konan and Kisame who were no longer part of the group thus branded them deserters.

### Akatsuki - Espada War

The Akatsuki realised Aizen and Orochimaru betrayed Pein and the Akatsuki.

After remembering the kidnapping of Orihime Inoue and Aizen making a deal with Xemnas to deal with Akatsuki, Pein had a change of heart ordered the Akatsuki to deal with their rival faction, Organisation XIII. Xemnas believed Pein and Akatsuki were part of their group. This misunderstanding led to them clashing with the group of Nobodies.

After emerging victorious, they made it to Pein's Fortress where they confronted Aizen's faction, the Espada. Aizen called the Espada to deal with the Akatsuki. Luppi Antenor was killed

Pein entered the fray against the Espada where he got beaten by Baraggan Louisenbairn and later Yammy Llargo. Shinra Tensei was his surest defence. Szayel Aporro Granz had a tough fight with Sasori who unleased his puppet army against his army. Tia Harribel flooded a city on Earth, indirectly allowing Kisame to make use of the water.

Hidan and Kakuzu were confronted by Grimmjow Jeagerjaquez and Nnoitra Gilga who was later killed, thanks to Yuka Minase who secretly disabled his power. Itachi was under attack by Zommari Leroux and later bested him before reaching Ulquiorra Schiffer. Itachi remembered him as the one who kidnapped Orihime Inoue, under Aizen's orders, and fought him. It was unknown where Tobi was at that time.

Sasori was killed by Zommari Leroux and Deidara was killed by suicide in the hopes of killing Coyote Starrk. Aaroniero Arruruerie was fought by Zetsu and its black counterpart. Konan who dealt the finishing blow on him. With the Espada dimished, thanks to Yuka's Hands of Glory, Pein gathered the Akatsuki back to his fortress where he felt the huge blow. Kakuzu saw a message from his old friend, Takahisa Tajima.

## Third Warriors War

### Aizen's schemes

Sometime later, after Sakura Haruno was sent by Aizen to locate the Voidstone, she was later ambushed by InuYasha and his allies. She was killed by Hidan, while Zetsu observed how worthless she was. Sesshōmaru banished Sakura with the use of Meidō Zangetsuha. Aizen brought up the clones of the deceased Espada to combat the Akatsuki. However this time, Pein and his warriors suffered a huge loss, leaving Konan, Zetsu, Kisame and Tobi.

## Fourth Warriors War

### Tobi's plans

Byakuya Kuchiki sensed his beloved Konan was in danger since she was under attack by Tobi and Aizen. It was too late for him to save Konan. Tobi attained the rinnegan. Aizen ordered Yuè to find the VoidStone from either of Team InuYasha's warriors. Kabuto Yakushi brought up undead warriors through the use of Summoning Impure World Reincarnation Technique. With the Akatsuki at full strength and Zetsu's clones as well as the allies of Sasuke Uchiha, Aizen & his siblings, Blackbeard, Beatrice, Naraku and Sailor Galaxia mobilised their armies to overwhelm the eastern parts of Earth.

The undead Deidara and undead Sasori fought with Mikoto Misaka and Shiori Momono who had a great advantage over them. The clones of Zetsu were diminished by Vergil, Hagi, Mikoto and Nami.

Takahisa was the first to spot his familiar ally turned enemy, Kakuzu. After the fights between him and Kakuzu. Thanks to the New Senshi (more specifically - Atsuko Kagari and Sally Yumeno), he and the undead Akatsuki warriors were freed from Kabuto's control, thus becoming allies. Kisame who was helping Team Bankotsu against the invading of led by Blackbeard, he was forced to fight Sasuke who defeated him and brought him to Aizen for interrogation. Aizen questioned Kisame about the Jewel of Four Souls and Voidstone. He instead met his fate at the teeth of his own sharks.
Tobi brought up the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path to decimate the warriors on the battlegrounds on Crashing Waves Coast and noticed an army of Pokémon led by Satoshi, Takeshi, Haruka and Hikari. Naruto Uzumaki became Nine Tails which Satoshi assumed it was a huge Pokémon. Nine Tails swept away the Pokémon before reaching Satoshi who challenged it. After the challenge, Satoshi beat Naruto, rendering him incapacitated. Tobi used the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path to grab all the Pokémon. The process was unsuccessful since Hikari's Pochama, Haruka's Bashāmo, Satoshi's Takeshi's Haganēru and Bee (in the form of Eight Tails) interrupted the process before beating it to submission. Tobi disappeared with the treasures and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. The former members of Team Rocket - Musashi, Kojirō and Nyarth also joined in the fight against Tobi. Taichi Yagami and his little sister, Hikari witnessed the devastation from afar and did not take part for unknown reasons. Zetsu's black side tried to ensnare its enemies until Sesshōmaru and InuYasha came to their rescue. An undead Hashirama Senju came to trap Mei Terumī and her allies. InuYasha helped freed them.

Throughout the night until the next day, an undead Itachi and undead Pein walked through the forest and saw InuYasha. Kabuto controlled them to finish InuYasha and freed Itachi and Pein from Kabuto's control.

### Tenten's gone missing

The undead Pein was called by Kaede that Naraku flooded Earth with a horde of demons. Pein helped absorbed incoming miasma. Some time later, the undead Akatsuki saw the undead Orochimaru's spies - Sound Four and both groups conflicted with each other. They were demolished by Kakuzu. Natsu Dragneel spotted clones of Zetsu's white side coming to the Valley of Sorrow and diminished them.

The member of SHIB Team and Akatsuki - Itachi was met by his beloved Kikyō who was shocked to see him as undead yet happy to see him back.

### The Ultimate showdown between InuYasha and Tobi

The Akatsuki helped Team InuYasha and SHIB Team to handle the fight against the

## Fifth Warriors War

### Madara's continuation

The Akatsuki ventured across Battleship Island where they were confronted by another enemy faction, the Shichibukai led by Blackbeard. They were grateful they were undead, granting them the means to last through. The only survivors of the group were Boa Hancock and Jinbē. Itachi thanked Yuka for using Hands of Glory to negate the powers of Organisation XIII, Espada and Shichibukai. He received a smile from her and Homura Akemi realised that thanks to her powers, Akatsuki had the advantage. Itachi revealed that even though she could not fight, such asset was welcomed.
After a lengthy battle between InuYasha, Jin Kariya, Bankotsu and Tobi, he was unmasked. Kakashi, InuYasha, Maito Gai, Jin and Bankotsu questioned him for being part of the enemies. Tobi revealed that Kakashi's incompetence led to Rin's death. Jin demanded an answer whether that was true and Bankotsu declared he was no longer part of the allies. Jin reprimanded both Bankotsu and InuYasha for accusing Kakashi. Kisame and Konan were revived by Hades, the ruling figure of the Underworld and (revealed to be a subordinate of Indra) for unknown reasons. After an undead Madara Uchiha defeated Byakuya and Kenpachi, Konan came to her beloved who believed she died, but revealed she was revived by Hades.

By nightfall, the Akatsuki left Battleship Island for the Great Warriors War Battlefield only to be cornered by Chrollo Lucifer and the Gen'ei Ryodan. The now unmasked Tobi recognised Uvogin who was involved in the death of his beloved Rin Nohara. He claimed that he didn't remember his involvement. They lasted through, however Zetsu's white was killed by Hisoka Morow. The Akatsuki went their separate ways. Tobi, on the other hand, joined Madara and Oda Nobunaga.
After Madara attempted to drain Tobi's life with Outer Path Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, Tobi began the process of sealing Ten Tails thus becoming a pseudo-Jinchūriki.

### Accusation and defamation

At that time when Tenten was framed for weapons dealing and betrayal of Konohagakure, the Akatsuki suddenly died since Goddess Vishnu called them. With everyone, including Tobi dead, Akatsuki's schemes officially ended. Their souls went to the realm where other souls would linger there - Tenkūkai. Due to their redemption, Vishnu granted them a place among the Hachibushū due to their reputation in combat. Those who also joined Hachibushū were Madara Uchiha, Jūzō Biwa, Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, Jiraiya, Zabuza Momochi, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Minato Namikaze, and lastly, Tobi.

Konan waited for Byakuya's return and at the same time saw Yahiko and Nagato being together.

Kisame was married to Miru whilst Itachi was reunited with his two beloveds - Kikyō and Izumi Uchiha whom he both married to. Both warriors observed the souls of the innocent were in eternal bliss.
