History
A initially suspected that a warning about Yugito was an Amegakure conspiracy, but sent an ANBU squad to protect her in secret. He had not accounted for her tendency to face danger alone. When Yugito returned without the Two-Tails, he was furious; soon afterward, he learned that Killer Bee had also been abducted 424 461.
At the Five Kage Summit, A fought Sasuke's allies and confronted the apparent Madara Uchiha. Amakawa Mingren severed A's arm and provoked the Kage, giving them a shared enemy. A also proposed exposing Danzō's actions concerning the Uchiha Clan to force him from power 465 469 470.
A later arrived with Killer Bee to reinforce Kumogakure ninja fighting near the Box of Ultimate Bliss. He ordered a search for Yugito and fought Shennong, whose regeneration left A frustrated despite repeated blows 490 494. During a later confrontation with overwhelming power, A was thrown into ruins and left coughing blood from the aftershock 606 607.
Personality
A is quick to anger when those under his protection are threatened, but his decision to send ANBU after Yugito shows caution alongside that temper 424 461. He is forceful in battle and in meetings, rejecting a proposal that he believed could put Naruto in Madara's hands 588.
