well to settle this what i've read in a mangga series in naruto was pein is not the leader but his the guy who order akatsuki to bring the jinchuuriki but in 1 episode in mangga pein is also accepting orders from another person which i pressume the leader of akatsuki and about uchiha madara his also one of the akatsuki member and his the 1 who brainwash itatchi to kill all their clan. hope we can have a thread of why they are getting all the jinchuuriki powers and what are they're plans on those things :midfinger: [align=center][/align]
