Kakuzu (角都, Kakuzu?) is a missing-nin from Takigakure and Hidan's partner. Hidan and Kakuzu display the most animosity towards each other out of all members of Akatsuki, with neither being very fond of the other's interests. Kakuzu doesn't like Hidan's religion at all, believing the rituals associated with it to be a waste of time. He is also impatient with Hidan's drawn-out speeches and battle style. In addition to his impatience, Kakuzu is quick to anger, and will often kill anyone in sight when enraged. Hidan is the perfect partner for Kakuzu because of his apparent inability to die. The first kanji in Kakuzu's name, 角, stands for kakugyō, a bishop in shogi.
Kakuzu is an incredibly greedy individual, only doing what is necessary to earn money, something his partner cannot stand. He even refers to himself as the Treasurer of Akatsuki. Given his friendly relationship with a bounty officer, it would seem he collects bounties rather frequently to earn cash, likely doing so during his missions, which is another point of infuriation for Hidan. He even looks at Hidan's religion through his ability to earn money from it, which is why he puts up with it. Despite Kakuzu's obvious greed, his own goals are actually in line with Akatsuki's overall goal.
Despite his obsessive personality and violent rage, Kakuzu is much more cautious than his partner, frequently warning him to not let his guard down. He also seems to be more willing to take orders. When ordered to retreat by the Akatsuki leader, Kakuzu complied immediately, despite the rather large bounty he could have gotten on Asuma at the time. He does make it a point to retrieve the case with his bounty money, however.
Kakuzu's arms, and possibly the rest of his body, have some unusual modifications. His arms have been severed near his elbows and are held in place by large black threads. The threads not only hold his arms in place, but appear to be weaved into his body, which allows Kakuzu to control them at will. By undoing the threads in his arms, Kakuzu can fire his arms like projectiles, retaining control over them the entire time. Due to the unusual nature of this technique, it's unclear if this is a natural ability or something accomplished through surgical modification. Aside from being used to hold his own limbs in place, Kakuzu can use his threads to reattach the severed limbs of others.
In addition to his detachable limbs, Kakuzu has an unusual amount of physical strength, the use of which is somehow associated with a change in his skin color. Kakuzu can also harden his limbs at will, making them strong enough to directly block a kunai with an exploding tag attached to it without injury
