a long shadow on the damp stone walls. You stand in the middle of the room, wearing a black robe with red clouds that still feel stiff on your body.
In front of you, stand the most dangerous figures in the shinobi world.
Atmosphere at Akatsuki Headquarters
Pain looks at you with her cold, emotionless Rinnegan eyes. Beside him, Konan folded the paper calmly, while Hidan grinned sharply as he leaned his scythe over his shoulder.
"So... Is this our new member?" Hidan broke the silence with a small laugh. "Zak, huh? He looks like he's got guts, or maybe he's just stupid enough to join us."
Itachi Uchiha was deadly, his red eyes sweeping over your figure as if he was measuring how much of a threat you carried. They don't know that behind this robe of red clouds, your heartbeat holds a secret that can shake all five great nations.
The Secret Behind the Shadow
While keeping your face flat in the face of these S-class criminals, your mind drifts back to the village of Konoha. To a warm room in the Hokage's office that is full of piles of papers and the distinctive scent of sake.
You remembered Tsunade's gentle but firm look. Your lover is the strongest woman in the world, but for you, she is the reason you are carrying out this dangerous mission. Become a spy in the darkest organization in order to protect him and the village he leads.
"Zak," Pain's heavy voice echoed through the ceiling of the cave. "Your first task is to gather information about the Jinchuriki's movements in the Fire Country's territory. Don't let us down."
You nodded softly, hiding a faint smile behind the high collar of your robe.
"Understood," you replied briefly.
Me : For a while, I haven't met everyone.. *all members gather*
The atmosphere inside the cave became even more tense when the ten shadows stood in a circle over the fingers of the Gedo Mazo statue. A faint blue light shone on the faces that would normally only be heard in whispers of fear in the ninja shops.
You stepped forward to the center of the circle, letting your red cloud robe rustle softly on the stone floor.
Introduction of Akatsuki Members
One by one, their eyes are on you. Here are your new colleagues:
Pain & Konan: Leaders who stand at the front. Pain stares at you expressionlessly, while Konan remains wary of the papers that start to fly around him.
Itachi Uchiha: It just glances at you with an active Sharingan. His sharpness seems to penetrate your deepest secrets about Tsunade.
Kisame Hoshigaki: This shark man grinned, showing his row of sharp teeth. "Zak, huh? I hope your skin isn't too thin when we practice later."
Sasori & Deidara: Artist couple. Sasori remained inside his hissing Hiruko doll, while Deidara looked impatient. "Art is a blast! I hope you're not a boring ninja, Zak!"
Kakuzu & Hidan: Kakuzu is counting the piles of money in the corner, while Hidan has already started swinging his red sickle at you in a provocative style.
Zetsu: A half-body emerges from the cave wall, observing you with a strange double gaze.
Moments of Tension
Hidan stepped forward, the tip of his crescent just a few centimeters away from your chest. "Hey, new kid! Here we don't need ninjas who are just good at style. What are your special abilities? And most importantly... do you want to join the ritual of worshiping the Lord Jashin with me?"
On the other hand, Itachi seems to be constantly paying attention to your movements. As a fellow ninja from Konoha, there's an aura he might recognize from you—something that reminds him of the village he left behind.
Pov : *Tobi suddenly came to hit me, and I bounced*
None!
Without warning, a spiral orange masked figure emerges from the empty air behind you. With a very fast and ridiculous movement, it slams into your back until you bounce far, rolling on the hard cave floor before finally stopping near the foot of the Gedo Mazo statue.
"Yaaaay! New members! Zak-senpai!" exclaimed Tobi as he jumped up and down with excitement, his hands waving in a childish style that contrasted sharply with the dark atmosphere there.
Reactions in the Cave
The atmosphere that had been tense turned strange.
Deidara instantly shouted angrily, "Tobi! you! Don't mess around during a serious meeting, un!"
Kisame chuckled low, leaning Samehada on his shoulder. "Looks like a welcome for you a little more... more lively than usual, Zak."
Pain was silent, but the pressure of chakra in the room felt heavy, a sign that she didn't like irregular interruptions.
Your Condition
You felt pain in your shoulder from the impact, but your trained physique made you able to get up immediately. As you stand up and clear the dust from your cloak, you notice something dangerous. Tobi may look stupid, but the attack wasn't just a joke—he was testing you.
In the corner of your eye, you see Itachi squinting. He seemed to want to see how you would react to this "troublemaker" Akatsuki.
Me : *I strangled Tobi quickly and slammed him until the mask shattered and he spewed blood out of his mouth* grwah
The Akatsuki Cave instantly became silent, much more gripping than before. Only the sound of a restrained groan from Tobi was heard.
"Grwah!"
Fresh red blood gushed from Tobi's mouth, staining his red cloud robes and the cold cave floor. Your crack in his neck was so strong, it made his bones creak. With one brutal and powerful jerk, you slam his body into the stone floor hard.
The sound of the impact echoed. The spiral orange mask he always wore was severely cracked, then shattered into pieces, revealing his original scarred face on his right side. His eyes widened, showing immense pain and shock. Tobi, the silly troublemaker, is now drooping helplessly under your grasp.
Shocking Sights
All the members of Akatsuki were stunned.
Deidara gawked, her mouth in her hand even wide open. "T-Tobi...?"
Kisame stopped his low laughter, his eyes narrowed seriously. "Amazing. Brutal energy for a newcomer."
Itachi Uchiha was the only one who didn't show a surprised expression, but his red eyes—the Sharingan—seemed to shine brighter, observing every detail of the event, including the face behind the mask that was now exposed.

The Consequences of Your Actions
Pain takes one step forward. The chakra pressure inside the cave increased drastically, feeling heavy and oppressive, a sign of the leader's anger that did not tolerate the commotion in his base.
"Enough, Zak," Pain's voice echoed cold and threatening. "We recruited you to be an asset, not to destroy fellow members."
Your impulsive and brutal actions have proven your strength, but they have also made you the center of attention and suspicion. You've just destroyed Tobi's façade and shown the real potential danger of you.
