what do they want? i mean i read the manga but it's still unclear for me what the true intention of akatsuki. does it really about money and power to control the whole continent? what does the jinchuriki is for? and how are they gonna use it? anyone?

they are a group of s-rank criminals from known countries headed by Uchiha Madara whose primary goal is to collect the tailed beasts which they will use for world dominion. Madara is against the division of countries and wants to control all ninjas with just one ruler. the reason why there are different countries is because of the first hokage (who's primary rival of madara). i guess its more about power. madara has a huge pride and wants to remain the STRONGEST among ninjas. this answer is just my opinion. i may be incorrect. hehehehehe

Akatsuki aims for world domination, but the leader, Tobi A.K.A. Uchiha Madara also wants revenge against the Village of Konoha for the things that happened to him. He also did want revenge against his clan, that's why he helped Itachi to kill all the Uchihas.

yep. they're a bunch of s-rank criminals who try to capture all the bijuus. pein stated earlier that they will dominate the world by releasing the bijuu, then getting the villages to pay them to seal them away. i think they might have to kill the majority of ninjas, coz if there are enough ninjas, they would be able to take out a bijuu. so theyre pretty cold and ruthless wanting to get world domination. however, if other ninjas unexpectedly get in their way, they might use bijuus as an attack mode as well.

From what I read, they want to first capture the demons which they will release to attack places. They will show up, accept a payment lower then what a village will accept, and get rid of them by sealing them away. Then show up somewhere else to do the same thing again.

The Akatsuki is a group of S-rank criminals who betrayed their village. Their main goal is to collect all the jinjuriki (forgive me if I misspelled it) and take over the world using it. A jinjuriki is a container of a bijuu. It acts as a person who holds the true power of a bijuu. A good example of that is Naruto's Kyuubi. Naruto is the jinjuriki and the bijuu is the Kyuubi. Hope I helped you clear things out! Have a good day!
