Akahoshi is a ninja from the village hidden among the stars in the Land of Bears. He took over after the Third Hoshikage suddenly "grew ill" and died. In truth, he and his followers Shisou and Yotaka murdered the Third Hoshikage. He thought that with the powers from the meteor, they would compete with the five main countries. When he never told anything about the side effects of the star training, the some village ninjas went against him as Natsuhi and Hotarubi try to hide the star.

Some time later, Akahoshi called upon the services of Team Guy and Naruto Uzumaki. Akahoshi's true colors were shown when he orchestrates Sumaru's kidnapping and knocks Naruto and Natsuhi into Hell's Ravine. Akahoshi later tracked them down and claimed the meteor after Natsuhi's death.

Upon the younger ninja exposing the side-effects of the Star Training, the adult ninjas turned against Akahoshi. Akahoshi proclaimed that he was the Fourth Hoshikage and planted the meteor in his chest to get the meteor's ultimate powers. None of the ninjas could defeat him until Naruto used the Rasengan to destroy the meteor and defeat Akahoshi. Tsunade mentioned that he and his followers will be subjected to harsh punishment....which is never revealed.
