For Naruto fans, such as myself, I bet some of you are wondering, "How many of the Akatsuki have died?"
So far, I have little info, but I'll do the best I can
*Note: Spoiler alert if you live in the US. But then again you probably don't care, so read it anyway*
Sasori of Red Sand died fighting his grandma Chiyo and Sakura I believe. I think he was the first of the Akatsuki to die. He was the creator of the Crow, a puppet Kankuro often uses. I think it was the 3rd Kazekage he murdered? His former partners were Deidara and Orochimaru. He said he'd kill Orochimaru, yet was unable to after he was killed.
Deidara died fighting Sasuke out of anger towards him, he turned himself into a bomb, killing himself and Manda (Orochimaru's snake). Either he or Hidan were the second of the Akatsuki to die. He joined the Akatsuki (Well, I can't say joined, he was forced) after being defeated by Itachi. One of his eyes has adapted to be used against the sharingan. He tried to kill Sasuke after realizing he killed Orochimaru before he could. His former partners were Sasori and Tobi (for the last time, he's not Obito).
Hidan died fighting Shikamaru. He killed Azuma, which drove Shikamaru to revenge. Shikamaru defeated and buried Hidan in Nara soil. He has a three blade reaper staff. He's a cusser, he often uses foul language when he can. I forget who his partner was...
Itachi died fighting Sasuke. Yes, Sasuke got his rvenge and was able to kill his brother. Itachi sustained multiple counts of Damage fighting Sasuke and the true reason he kept Sasuke alive was revealed. Itachi kept Sasuke alive in hopes he'd gain a Mangekyo too. Itachi was going blind (most of you are probably saying "I knew it!") due to the Mangekyo's effects, so he kept Sasuke alive to steal his eyes for a permanent Mangekyo, however Sasuke killed him. Sasuke is currently in critical condition. Itachi so far is the last of the Akatsuki that has died. Itachi's partner was Kisame.
So far that's my guide. If any new updates come up I may or may not post them because if I have a life that day, I may not. If you have more information tell me and I will update another page and post who helped me.
“Finally, school’s over!” Hidan shouted.
“Hidan, don’t yell! God, Itachi’s already practically blind! You want to turn him deaf too?!” Kisame shouted as Itachi sat by a bush.
Yes, school was out for the week, and the little first graders didn’t know what to do to occupy their time. Kakuzu walked over to Itachi and tried to steal his leftover lunch money, but Itachi looked right at him saying, “Despite people saying I’m blind, I’m not. Now, Kakuzu, I dare you to try and steal my money again.”
So, Kakuzu decided to back off on Itachi. “So, what are you going to do for spring break, sempai?” Tobi asked Deidara.
Tobi and Deidara walked out of the schoolhouse, getting tired of waiting for Sasori to pick up his puppets, books, and jacket. “Not much, I just figured I’d stay home and play video games, work on my new clay masterpieces, you know, the usual stuff,” Deidara said, “What are you doing Tobi?”
“Going to Disney World,” he replied.
Deidara looked at him with surprise, wondering how much money he had. Sasori soon ran out of the school, joining Tobi and Deidara on the walk home. “What are you doing for spring break Sasori?” Tobi asked before Deidara had the chance to.
“Collecting more puppets, for my collection,” Sasori responded panting from the run, yet had no change to his expression, “I’m guessing your staying home too Deidara?”
“Yes,” Deidara said looking bored out of his mind, yet he looked at Tobi, suspecting he’d mention Disney World to Sasori.
“Tobi’s going to Disney World!” Tobi soon shouted, breaking the silence.
Sasori had the same reaction Deidara had and asked Deidara, “How much money does this kid have?”
Only to be responded with a shrug of the shoulders.
After a few days of school being out, Deidara and Sasori became bored, so they met at their usual clubhouse and discussed their break. “I ran out of clay, so I can’t make anymore sculptures,” Deidara sighed.
“Yeah, I can’t find anyone worthy enough to join my puppet collection,” Sasori said sadly, yet he still seemed psychodic.
Both boys let out a big sigh. “Where’s Tobi, you hear anything from him?” Sasori asked to bring up a new conversation.
“Tobi calls me five times a day,” Deidara said annoyed, “He said he should be home today.”
“He was at Disney World for three days? And now he’s coming back?!” Sasori asked confused about Tobi’s actions of calling Deidara five times a day, and the fact Tobi said he was going to Disney World for spring break.
“Yeah, I’m confused too,” Deidara said, “But, then again, he didn’t say how long he was going to be in Disney World.”
After their discussion, Tobi suddenly appeared out of nowhere and landed on top of Sasori. “Hi sempai! I’m back!” Tobi shouted happily.
Deidara looked at Tobi with shock, and then he realized that Sasori was underneath him. “Uhh… Tobi? Did you know you’re sitting on Sasori?” Deidara said scared at what would happen.
Tobi looked down to see Sasori being crushed by his weight. “Oh,” Tobi said as he got off Sasori, “Tobi sorry Sasori-san! Tobi would never do that because Tobi is a good boy. Tobi didn’t see you!”
Sasori was KO’d, he didn’t respond, he probably got knocked out from lack of oxygen. “Is he going to be okay?” Tobi asked Deidara.
“Tobi, I suggest we start running, because, you don’t know what he’s going to do when he’s mad!” Deidara said as he got a ten foot head start.
“Wait for Tobi!” Tobi called after him as Sasori started to wake up.
Sasori’s eyes flew wide open and he sat up, noticing Deidara bring his clay eagle to life and Tobi desperately trying to hang onto it as soon as it took off. Sasori remembered Tobi crashing into him earlier and nearly suffocating him and how Deidara made no effort to help him. Sasori suddenly flew into a fit of rage shouting, “YOU BRATS! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!”
Deidara knew Sasori was going to be pretty sore until school came back, so he suggested, “You want to go to Holiday World instead?”
“All right class, take your seats,” Konan sharply spoke.
Everyone took their seats before the teacher called the principal in. Deidara sat by Sasori, Itachi sat beside Kisame even though Kisame was terrified by him, Zetsu sat by himself because he would often fight his second personality, and Hidan sat by Kakuzu who was stealing his lunch money. “All right class, we have a new member to akatsuki school, everyone say hello to Tobi.”
Tobi stepped into the room. The little first grader clutched an orange mask and he wore a bag on his head. The little first graders laughed at the sight of Tobi. Itachi however just stared blankly at his desk. “Don’t be shy Tobi, go take a seat and take that bag off your head,” Konan told him calmly.
Tobi listened and sat on the other side of Deidara. Deidara looked up from his clay in question to why the new kid was sitting next to him. Tobi slipped the mask under the brown bag on his head and then took the bag off. Tobi sat the brown bag next to his desk as he got up to place his backpack in his space. Then he quickly sat back down at his desk.
“All right, everyone,” Konan said a few hours later, “lunch time.”
All the seven year olds gathered up some of their items for playtime on the playground after lunch. Kisame and Itachi were popular at almost every one of their classmates sat by them.
Sasori and Deidara just got out of the lunch line arguing over which ones’ art is better, when they spotted a lone figure sitting at a table. It was the new kid, Tobi. Sasori and Deidara looked at each other and then approached Tobi’s table.
Tobi was playing with his food when he noticed Deidara and Sasori setting their trays on the table. “You’re the new kid, Tobi right?” Deidara asked.
Tobi stole a glance at Deidara and said nothing. After lunch, Tobi sat on the swing looking down. “Hey, get off our swing!”
Tobi looked up to see Itachi, Kisame, Hidan, and Kakuzu. “I’m going to say this once me: Get off our swing!” Kisame said.
“These swings are for everyone,” Tobi said.
“Not in my eyes. Now get off the swing or I’ll use my Tsukyomi,” Itachi said.
The four bullies crowded around Tobi getting ready to attack when, “Hey, leave him alone!” a voice shouted.
Hidan turned and laughed, “Aww the two little boyfriends are coming to stick up for this freak.”
Deidara and Sasori were staring down Hidan, Kakuzu, Kisame, and Itachi. “Like I said: Leave him alone, or I’ll use my clay to do the talking!” Deidara said.
Itachi took a look at him; he knew it was useless to fight. “Come on guys, we’ll leave them alone. Let’s go do something else,” Itachi said to Kisame, and the others.
“Are you okay Tobi? I’m Deidara and this is Sasori, sorry we didn’t introduce ourselves earlier.” Deidara said smiling.
Tobi smiled under his mask and said, “Deidara sempai, thank you.”
