I can’t believe this is a thread that has to be made, but here we are. Given that the wiki already accepts Bijuu scaling to Island Level to Small Country (Depending on the Bijuu) it is laughable that the AP based Akatsuki members don’t scale to the bijuu, considering they kill them within the series. For example, Kakuzu and Hidan both have an AP tier of 7-C, while Yugito when fully transformed has an AP tier of 6-C. Kakuzu and Hidan only use AP based attacks to take down opponents anyway, so it’s ridiculous that they don’t scale. Of course I recognize with several akatsuki members this doesn’t necessarily follow, because they use hax, e.g. Itachi, Sasori, Kisame, Obito but for those like Deidara, Hidan, Kakuzu, they should be absolutely upscaled. It’s not even a stretch to say that the hax based ones would scale there too, as the databook says the akatsuki members are stronger than jinchuuriki and bijuus, but I’m not too concerned about that. Now, as a result of this, other characters would be upscaled as well, most notably Kakashi, Sage Mode Naruto, and Hebi Sasuke. It’s consistent for Kakashi as he is somewhat able to keep up with Pain, who already has AP scaling in that tier. As for Hebi Sasuke, him being at 6-C is fine as well, because a weaker version of himself (that being Taka) is able to harm fully transformed Bee who has 6-C scaling, and Bee even says he may be the toughest dude he’s ever fought. So in conclusion, Kakashi in the Akatsuki Suppression/Pain’s Assault arc, Hebi Sasuke, Sage Mode Naruto, Deidara, (with C3) Kakuzu, and Hidan should all be upgraded to 6-C respectively, and the rest of the akatsuki as well if you choose to apply the databook statement to all of them.
