Strenght - wise? Nagato is stronger than Madara. That has been almsotconfirmed by Madara himself. If he had been more powerful than Nagato, he would've acomplished his goal by himself and he wouldn't need any tailed beasts.

1. Nagato/Madara
2. Madara/Nagato
3. Itachi
4. Kisame
5. Kakuzu/Sasori
6. Deidara
7. Hidan
I must say I find your post the most to my liking and a very close resemblance to what I would have chosen.

My list however would consist of :

1. Nagato/Madara (The deadly due! Madara needs to put more to the plate before I can really give him the number one spot, but I do consider him to be one of THEE last badies, so It must account for something)

3. Itachi (Like the previous dudes said its Itachi, even in death he still have an influence on the ninja world :) )

4. Kisame (The only reason he is above any of these below is because hes still alive - . - )

5. Sasori (Utterly protected against any poison and have a lot of secrets up his sleeve)

6. Deidara/Orochimaru (Very tight fit between these ladies)

8. Kakuzu (Nice to have 4 hearts, to sad he didnt have 4 brains)

9. Konan (She didnt feature that much yet, but I do think her intellect allows her to surpass Hidan)

10. Hidan (It doesnt matter if your immortal, stupidity counters any ability he could have had)

Everyone's forgetting Zetsu....T_T
LOL

Zetsu should probably rank close to konan, the problem with Zetsu is that he doesnt feature yet. We have only see he photographic skills while observing fights and some attempts at assisting Sasuke during the Kage meeting. So until he stops vegetating and start to do some combat hes not going to get higher up in the food chain in my opinion. :p

1-2. - Pain/Madara.

- Madara's abilities make him extremely difficult to kill and he should be the most haxxed person right now but he keeps suggesting that there's something holding him back. He's wounded in some way from his fight with the 1st but we can't say for sure what that is.

- Nagato/Pain's feat are incredible. His Rinnegan power against Konoha were extremely powerful.

3. Itachi

- Itachi is extremely talented in his use of the MS. He'd speedblitz alot of characters if they battled him. Fast with handseals and uses Genjutsu better then anyone in the manga.

4. Orochimaru

- Orochimaru is just plain hard to kill. He regenerates extremely quick and his durability is way up there. Because of his modifications to his body, conventional killing methods against him are ineffective most of the time. Excellent in Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, Taijutsu and snake summons. All round powerful ninja.

5. Kisame

- Kisame with his Samehada are a deadly combo. Able to absorb chakra attacks with his sword and has the largest chakra reserves after Naruto, he can make a lake out of nothing. Kisame has immense strength and was able to take out the 4th tailed host who could use Lava release technique.

6.Sasori

- Sasori is a prodigy puppeteer who could wield 100 puppets like no other. The only one to make humanoid puppets, his Kazekage puppet with Iron Sand was a force to be reckoned with. Also used deadly poison, booby traps and able to change from puppet heart to another.

7.Kakuza

- Kakuza is able to utilize the 5 elemental attacks all at once and has great defense in Iron Skin. Having 5 hearts makes him difficult to kill and his 100 yrs of experience makes him knowledgeable in combat strategies. Also has a modified body that extend tentacles which can dislodge his hands like missiles.

8. Deidara

- Deidara use of clay made him a talented artist. Able to shape homing birds out of clay and even make microscopic bombs that attacked within the opponent. He is able to create destructive attacks that covered a wide range.

9. Zetsu

- Zetsu has one of those abilities that seem haxxed but we've yet to see it in full effect to properly judge him. He can merge with objects and should be able to surprise attack kinda like Robin in OP uses her hands. Was able to surprise a group of powerful ninjas in the Kage meeting with one of his halfs alone but they all did manage to escape easily. He will probably move up in power ranks.

10. Konan

- Konan like Zetsu has a strong ability but we are yet to see it's full extent. She is pretty much the logia of the Narutoverse and can divide herself into thousands of pieces making her difficult to hit unless you know her weakness like her former sensei, Jiraiya. I expect to see her more and showcase her beautiful use of origami in battle.

11.Hidan

- Hidan is a one trick pony. Slowest members and most likely dumbest as well. Whilst his immortality is amazing, he doesnt have much of a backup plan or change of fighting style when he gets in trouble. He is most powerful when battling against an opponents for the first time as his method of killing is unusual.

OK yeah this makes the most sense for sure. I agree with this here except for Zetsu - we can't be sure that's why I didn't place him. The top six seem obviously ranked but after that they are pretty close.

1) Nagato
2) Madara
3) Itachi
4) Kisame
5) Orochimaru
6) Kakuzu
7) Deidara
8) Sasori
9) Konan
10) Zetsu
11) Hidan
You think Sasori is losing to Deidara? And you really think Orochimaru is losing to Kisame?

Sasori and his Iron Sand or his 100 puppets will rape Deidara for sure and since Sasori doesnt breathe the microscopic bombs won't work on him.

Sasori vs Kakuzu I'm not too sure about... It would be close either way.

I'm pretty sure Orochimaru is beating Kisame though. We'll see for sure Kisame's abilities in his fight with Killerbee.

U r underestming Orchimaru
not really. i took everything into account. i mean i think orochimaru is cool and all but really he is not that powerful compared to members of the akatsuki.

the reason i left out zetsu is becuae i cannot compare him if i have not seen the full extent of his power. same with madara. cept madara must be powerful in the top 2 at least.

Umm, you can't just say that and not provide any evidence to back up your statement otherwise no one will believe you. Orochimaru is a monster who killed two Kages (Sandai Hokage, Yondai Kazekage) and battled on even ground with four-tail fox cloak Naruto. He was pretty close to immortal and even in a weakened state he couldn't be killed and had to be sealed by Sasuke and then Itachi. I think you are underestimating him.

Are you sure? Orochimaru is one of the Legendary Three. Do you think Kisame could beat Jiraiya? Jiraiya lost to Orochimaru. Maybe Jiraiya got stronger than Orochimaru because of hermit mode. Cuz I don't understand why Itachi would fear Jiraiya when it was two on one but Itachi completely scared the crap out of Orochimaru. Makes no sense. I doubt Orochimaru would let himself get cut up if he could summon past hokages and giant hell gates and giant snakes and if he could rebirth himself and if he could use the Kusanagi sword and shoot it out of his mouth like against fourtail Naruto.
Oorochimaru isn't stronger than jiraiya by no means Jiraiya elected not to kill his old friend in hopes to convince him to come back when they first battled and the second time tsunade poisoned him. But explosive clay not working on puppets how is that accurate?

very good list, just Itachi was scared by Jiraiya, Jiraiya is beaten by Orochimaru, Orohimaru is scared of Itachi, Madara wouldn't touch Konoha until Itachi was dead. So i don't know how it should line up, i think it should go in line as teams, as in the strongest team first and second and so on.

Honestly that was a pretty comprehensive breakdown you put some effort in to this and I can respect that. I would add that naguto is probably the strongest hence the fact that madara sought him out and seen fit to use him as the leader of the akatsuki. Furthermore his rinnengan was incredible and the only reason why he died is because his chakra reserves were to low when he performed the revival technique on konoha other than that your list very accurate in my opinion

Battled on even ground, Naruto would of wiped the floor with him if he hadn't hurt Sakura. He blew down his barrier, Orochimaru shed his skin atleast ten time, and his Kusagani couldn't even scratch Naruto. Naruto won hands down.

lol yh the madara zetsu thing. soz about that.


well orochimaru was considered imortal but his body wasnt. he needed to transfer his soul to another and as we are shown it can backfire.
also when he fought the third hokage he couldnt really touch him only with his reanimation did he stand a chance and even then he lost. i consider that the third won as he sealed away two "kage"(lol) level ninjas souls and orochimarus arms away forcing orochimaru to abandon his plans to destroy the leaf village and after suffer to the point of near death. all because the third was too old. also the first was incredibly powerful as even madara with the EMS couldnt beat him. in all fairness even though i like orochimaru i cant help but say he was pathetic in that battle. only jumping in for a free hit.

finally he didnt stand a chance against naruto in 4 tailed state. orochimaru only hit him twice and the first one backfired
You must be registered for see images
and the second did nothing apart from push him away.
You must be registered for see images

although orochimaru is kind of immortal hidan is immortal but is also an idiot so i put him just above because of the immortality. and the fact hidan only needed to hit someone once to beat them.
kakuzu fought the first hokage and survived so he goes up high as well know what the first did to madara.
kisame fought the 4 tails on his own and won. also he has chakra on par with a jinchuriki.
sasori was a hard choice as orochimaru was going to fight him with only kabuto to aid him so im not sure if orochimaru figured he could kill him on his own and using kabuto as the reason for attacking him or if he needed kabuto for the fight. i mean controling 100 puppets with deadly poison in every one and the 3rd kazekage puppet makes him very powerful. i wonder who was the leader in their partnership.

deidara was orochimaru's replacement so i think orochimaru must have been prefered to deidara so i put him after and konan just seems really weak.

thats the reasons behind my listings

I'm well aware of what happened the second time. That wasn't a real fight at all. Everyone was weak for some reason. But the first time I wasn't sure. So he is stronger, ok.

The Deidara's explosions wouldn't be enough against 100 puppets that would swarm around him. He wouldn't be able to keep up. Sasori's Sandai Kazekage puppet with the Iron Sand would be enough for Deidara on its own. Deidara's explosions wouldn't get past the Iron Sand and the poison would have him immobilized.

Deidara was the junior member in Sasori's two man team after all. Deidara did get beat by Sasuke of all people (even though it wasn't a true defeat as he really kamikazed himself) and Sasori was beaten by a puppet expert Chiyo and the apprentice of one of the Sannin of Konoha who had prepared antidotes to his poison.

jiraiya never went all out against orochimaru, itachi was very powerful and could have disrupted madaras plan by announcing madara's state to everyone. madara only did it because naruto "threw a wrench" into his plan.
and itachi knew what jiraiya was capable of. even pein said that jiraiya could have beaten him had he not kept his secret.

The reason the first beat Madara is because he most likely had several bijuu under his control. I don't think he was that skilled in actual combat. All he did really was make a forest for Monkey King Enma to play in...

If Orochimaru fought Sarutobi like he fought four-tail fox cloak Naruto then he would've owned. If he shot the Kusanagi sword out of his mouth like he did against Naruto it would've gone right through Sarutobi's face.

And that is true he probably would've died if they had continued but who else do you see lasting that long against four tail Naruto? Hidan? Definitely not. Kakuzu? Nope. Sasori? Possibly but he'd get owned by one of those giant chakra cannons. Orochimaru just has so many tricks up his sleeves.

But I agree with most of your other reasons.

Here's my list :)

1st: Nagato
2nd: Itachi(I would put him first but idk if the rinnegan would cancel out the sharingan and I think he was better than madara or at least equal)
3rd: Madara
4th: Sasori(I would put him 2nd or 1st if I knew if the sharingan or rinnegan affected his puppet body.)
5th: Kisame (this list is harder than I thought I hate putting Kisame this low lol)
6th: Orochimaru
7th: Deidara
8th: Kakuzu
9th: Hidan

I don't really count Konan as Akatsuki she was just there because of Nagato

really hidan can fight it forever. he just is incapable of killing it. but there is more in that universe than a tailed beast.
im sure the first was alot stronger than just being able to control the tailed beasts. i mean he is suposed to have the body of the sage of six paths.

and i wasnt judging the members of akatsuki on fighting the four tailed fox. i was juding them on their fighting techs against shinobi.
