Chapter 4: Truth and TrainingIn The Council Chambers:
"So… that's it, huh?" Naruto said quietly as Itachi nodded his head. Naruto sat back in his chair at the head of the council table and rubbed his temples.
It couldn't have been drugs. It couldn't have been money. It couldn't have been him just plain going insane like they were told. No, it had to be that his clan wanted to revolt against the village! Naruto sighed as he lifted his cold gaze at his 3 advising elders, who flinched back from never seeing eyes filled with such cold fire in them.
"Explain" Naruto commanded as Homura stood up.
"Hokage-sama, they would have demolished any other ninja we had sent. We also needed someone in the clan, to be a spy, and that was completely loyal to the village. Itachi was the only and perfect choice." Homura explained as his fellow 2 elders nodded.
"So you ruin the life of one good person, because my predecessor, the 3rd Hokage, allowed the Civilian Council to control the academy? You ruin Itachi-san's life, because he was willing to kill his family? Are you 3 MORONS!" Naruto spoke as his anger rose with each question. Everyone flinched back at the sheer rage in his tone. They all looked to him as his eyes glowed red and his features became more feral. He then started taking deep breaths and calmed himself down as he returned to normal.
"I'll need someone to teach me to control the Kyuubi's power… Anyways, Itachi, you are to be our spy into this Akatsuki. Once you have all the necessary information, you are to report back to me, understood?" Naruto said as Itachi nodded.
"Yes, Hokage-sama" Itachi replied in his monotone voice as Naruto turned back to his council.
"Nara-san, what do you believe would be best in this situation. I do plan to return Itachi to the village, and I'm sure the people will not take well to that… due to the… mistakes of my predecessor." Naruto said as he knew the people, shinobi and civilian alike, would hate Itachi almost as much as the civilians hated him.
"I think the truth would be best, Hokage-sama, since anything else would just blow up in our face later on... like right now." Shikaku said as he laid his head on the table. Naruto nodded his own head in agreement. He would not lie to his people, not like he was lied to…
"Itachi, what do you know of this Akatsuki as of now?" Inoichi asked as Itachi closed his eyes in thought.
"Akatsuki is a criminal organization of S-Class missing-nin and is the most wanted group in the entire shinobi world. Their main goal is to collect all of the tailed beasts for their plan of world domination." Itachi said as the others of the room grew wide eyed and gasped. Naruto unconsciously let a hand rub his stomach as Jiraiya patted his shoulder.
"Akatsuki, at any given time, is composed of no more than 10 primary members, all of whom are S-Rank criminals. Members always work in teams of two, with the exception of Zetsu, who functions as the organization's spy, and they make use of their unique skills to the team's advantage. Team members must function very well together, or at least stand each other to accomplish their task even though they have mutual problems with each other. The organization is rarely fully assembled though." Itachi said and then paused briefly to let the information sink in.
" The members of Akatsuki as of now are; myself, Kisame, Deidara of Iwa, Sasori of the Red Sand, Hidan the Immortal, Kakuzu of the 5 Hearts, Konan the Paper Angel, Nagato the fake Leader, Zetsu the Human Fly Trap,… and Madara Uchiha the real Leader." Itachi said with the others gaping and gasping at the names, especially the last.
"But how? He should be dead of old age by now." Koharu said with her mouth a gape. She remembered that the man was about 38 when she was born, so that would may him 105 years old right now.
