Now that Tobi is Obito there is no way he was the leader, even Nagato said he is easily replaced & konan almost defeated him.. Tobi as "Obito" isn't as powerful as some thought him to be..

I believe the story of Yahiko being the leader and passing it to Nagato.
Nagato could have destroyed the leaf before the war started but saw something greater than himself in naruto. Even Tobi said he was invincible and techniqually was never defeated.

In terms of Strength top five Akatsuki
Nagato
Itachi
Tobi
Black & white zestu
Konan

Who knows what black & white zestu is capable of doing..
That being said Yahiko started Akatsuki if anything eles Madara gave him only an idea if that.

Whether you think Tobi/Obito was strongest or not, he was in charge. Everything was according to his master plan. Nagato took orders from him.

This^

But I believe at some point Izuna or some shady character was the mask man,then Obito took over or is going by his order.

Yeah, there's a dumb rumor that there's another "true" leader in the akastuki. Obito is the leader and that's it.

Idk how much of that can be attributed to strength. He's been dodging the entire fight. That's pretty much all he ever does for the most part. I wish he'd be a more offensive fighter.

Saying that he nearly lost to Konan to justify your opinion is irrelevant. That paper chamber jutsu she used was a one time deal that she had to have already set up.. And he still beat her.

That was pain. Nagato himself was having a pretty nice time wrecking Killer Bee and KM Naruto at the same time until Itachi became good again.

To be honest obito is fairly smart and strong but if somehow nagato is stronger obito is still the leader and he gives the commands -.-

The akatsuki is 90% dead anyway.
Since they are using the dead, I'd say Yahiko is the true leader, since he always was.

Obito/Tobi was the leader of Akatsuki. Nagato was taking orders from him. According to Konan, Yahiko created Akatsuki but we really don't now whether or not Yahiko was receiving orders from Tobi.

Tobi WAS not the strongest. The keyword here is WAS because he recently acquired the strength of the Rinnegan and the power of the tailed beasts. He got tossed around by Konan ffs and he was cautious of Itachi.

Strength wise I would say it was:

Itachi or Nagato
Kisame
etc
etc

Take note that Akatsuki does not exist anymore because all of the existing members are dead or defeated. Akatsuki's prime time was in the beginning and mid Shippuden.

Definately Yahiko. He kept the organisation together with his will and drive alone. He was the true leader of the Akatsuki, even Nagato couldn't do what he did, hence why it all fell apart.

The Akatsuki was doomed as soon as Yahiko died.
