Akagi Gang
CharacterThe Akagi Gang is a band of toughs hailing from the Land of Tea. In its brief anime appearance, a pair of its members set out after Tsunade to collect on a family debt, only to find the money had long since been settled.
Overview
A minor anime-only outfit, the Akagi Gang comes from the Land of Tea and appears during the wider hunt for Tsunade. Its lone notable errand revolves around an old family debt tied to the Akagi name.
Role
The gang operates out of the Land of Tea and, in its short appearance, works as a debt-collecting outfit acting for the Akagi family. During the search for Tsunade, two of its members were sent to track the future Hokage down and press her to repay what she owed. Their errand fell flat once they learned the debt had already been cleared, leaving them nothing to collect.
Notable Members
Two figures carry the group's only named roles. Senta and Bunzo handled the assignment to pursue Tsunade over the outstanding Akagi debt, and it was they who discovered the sum had already been paid.
