Why Itachi didn't killed the members of Akatsuki..

[Uzumaki Kushal]

Itachi has probably more IQ than Shikamaru which is above 200.. Itachi can probably assasinate all the members of akatsuki specially Orochimaru when he tried to take his body.. The zetsu which was keeping an eye on Itachi can be assasinated too by capturing him in genjutsu or the sword of his Susanoo but why Itachi didn't killed them all? Why he left Orochimaru even??

 

[dark legion]

cuz he aint a fool like u !! he could never win against them all .,,1st he would never start a war without any need .. He didn't enter Akatsuki to kill them , but to keep an eye on their action .. if any of Akatsuki found out that he's trying to kill them , they would kick him from organization or kill him .. and that would have been a totally fail of Itachi'a and Hiruzen's plan .

 

[HiddenSound]

I personally think he let Orochimaru go because he knew Orochimaru would become enemies with Akatsuki and help hinder them.
As for why he didn't kill the others, Tobi would have figured it out and sent Pain to kill him.

Akatsuki is a place for Itachi to run to after what he did.

Why would he take his only home?

Also Obito is there, he would lay itachi out if he disrupt his plans.

 

[TheRedAndGreenBeast]

If all the Zetsu are linked, he would be killed by Tobi and/or Pain. He would have to act like a true ninja and do it without anyone knowing. It'd be like Death Note where Itachi is Light and Tobi is L.

Itachi loses to Tobi and Pain.

Answering your question, Itachi thought Tobi was Madara so he was scared of him (anyone would be).

I don't remember why he left Orochimaru though. Maybe because Orochimaru would be counter-productive for the Akatsuki?

 

[Uzumaki Kushal]

He can kill them one by one.. Or he can at least kill orochimaru..

 

[AlphaMaleLion]

He cant kill Pain and Obito thats why

 

[Uzumaki Kushal]

He would at least kill one or two members of akatsuki if he wanted.. Like Kisame.. Or The Orochimaru and kabuto..

Both were working for Danzo, so Itachi wouldn't do something to jeopardize the mission unlike Orochimaru (because he can).

Sending pain wouldn't make a difference, he would kill him.

Obito would order the whole akatsuki if he were to do something foolish.

I doubt Orochimaru still bothered with Danzō at that point.
Regarding Itachi and Pain, difference of opinion.

 

[End of Days]

Because he can't

*Facepalm*

 

[Tobi98]

They work in teams of 2, he can't beat any of those teamsn at the same time

Lol at this butthurt noob...

Keep that face palm up, so I can five star your face while we're at it.

Maybe some sense would also be smacked in as well.

 

[enditallsin]

how do you figure that he has more iq than shikamaru, and because he couldn't

 

[Yatori]

He cant kill Pain and Obito thats why

i second this

 

[Chie]

Because attemping that would be stupid. He was better off being a spy.

If he tried killing them, they would just come together and defeat him, not even all of them would be needed. They wouldn't just stand around and be fine with Itachi killing off a few of them randomly one at a time. They only let Kakazu off because they were sure he was loyal and they knew he had a bad temper, plus it was only his own partner. If Itachi who is usually calm and reserved killed off other members, that's a blaring indicator that something is wrong. He doesn't stand a chance against all of them, much less a combo of Obito and Nagato.

 

[NarutoWA]

Though every other were fodder, he knew Pain was powerful. Also, he knew Akatsuki was headed by Tobi, (Madara in his views), and knew his powers too as they met before assasination of the Uchihas. Tobi killed many uchihas by himself.
Since you say he had very high IQ, he didn't wanna mess things up. He wanted to be killed by only Sasuke.

Not to say, It was his mission to keep an eye on Akatsuki to protect the village.

 

[Royal Uchiha]

How did he kill all Uchiha's? Because of strategy, with a strategy he probably could kill all of them, but that would destroy his image of villian?
