Yes, Jiraya's student Nagato (AKA, Pain), was Akatsuki's official leader.
Hey!!! don't 4get Konan joined too!!!!
WARNING! SPOILERS!Nagato died in the battle against Naruto.pain akatsuki is the student of jeraiya who kill hem he is the strongest ninja
What is a date? No, I have no suggestion to this answer.
No, he was not.
He was killed in battle against Pain (Leader of Akatsuki, holder of the Rinnegan.)
No, Naruto does not become part of the Akatsuki. He couldn't even if he wanted to because he has the nine tailed fox inside of him and the Akatsuki want to extract the nine tails out of him for Madara's 'Moon Eye'. It's not probable that Naruto will ever join the Akatsuki.
LOL... hell NO Pain join or (created akatsuki that he claims with is not 100% true) AKATSUKI after Yahiko's death Actually Nagato become PAIN after Yahiko's death itself
He isn't but starts a group called the Falcon (a group of ninjas who betrayed their village) and Tobi (a.k.a Mandara) invites Falcon to work with the Akatsuki so their numbers aren't so small. Finally the Facon wears the same outfits as the Akatsuki. But he just is helping the Akatsuki out not being part of it. He is just trying to find out what really happened with his brother.
Nagato and his friends made the Akatsuki first it was just them then other people joined and so now
No, he is Madara Uchiha, who was born long before Jiraiya. Their former acting leader, Nagato/Pain, was a student of Jiraiya, although not a Konoha ninja, but a orphan from Amegakure.
He was a former member before he was kicked out of the Akatsuki. He betrayed them. He was greedy for power.
no the akatsuki is hunting him instead...
