10 Naruto Characters Who Would Make Great Among Us Imposters
Some of the stealthiest & most deceptive ninja of Naruto would naturally make perfect imposters from Among Us.

The Naruto universe is complete with dozens of characters familiar with trickery and disguise. Through intelligence, jutsu, and the conviction to do what they feel is necessary, their actions have often gone unnoticed by others and had significant ramifications for the world around them.
This entails that they would make formidable imposters in Among Us, as they are capable of assassinating crewmates and sabotaging the ship all beneath the prying eyes of their colleagues. By identifying the most viable shinobi to fulfill such a role, we can better understand their aptitude for subtlety and murder.
10 Sai Was A Trained Foundation Agent Who Was Great At Hiding His Emotions

Sai once worked under Danzo Shimura's Foundation and had his emotions culled from him during his grueling training. As a result, he was a perfect spy, one capable of remaining phlegmatic under the most serious circumstances.
Therefore, it follows that he'd be able to make calm and rational explanations if anyone accuses him of murdering a crewmate. Moreover, he would be able to attack his targets remotely via his ink creations as long as nobody saw them coming.
9 Itachi Infiltrated The World's Most Dangerous Organization Without Being Detected

Itachi Uchiha was intelligent enough to infiltrate the Akatsuki - arguably the world's most dangerous criminal organization - without being detected. This demonstrates his formidable intellect and ability to maneuver around enemies without being seen.
Moreover, his Sharingan would provide a massive advantage if he's ever caught killing a crewmate. By modifying how his targets perceive his color slightly, he could get them to accuse and vote out a completely innocent comrade. Considering that he was able to get away with the Uchiha genocide without being exposed, it's likely that none will ever catch him near a body to begin with.
8 Orochimaru Was A Great Imposter In The Chunin Exams

During the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru posed as Kazekage Rasa so that he could get close to Hiruzen Sarutobi. His disguise was so convincing that none of the village's shinobi - including the Third Hokage himself - were able to detect his intentions until he was ready to put his plan into motion.
He also faked his identity to enter the Forests of Death and get closer to Sasuke. Given the fallen Sannin's ability to change his face and deceive others, he would make for an epic imposter.
7 Shisui Was Almost Able To End The Uchiha Genocide & Could Deceive Crewmates Just As Easily

Shisui Uchiha may not have had as illustrious of a ninja career as Itachi, but he proved every bit as competent through his actions. He offered to put the Uchiha uprising's leader under a genjutsu and coax him into calling off the attack - all while avoiding suspicion of Senju interference.
Considering his aptitude for pulling off such a feat (as Hiruzen Sarutobi believed it could be done), it follows that he could place a crewmate under a similar spell and convince him to either vouch for his whereabouts or accuse someone else of a potential murder.
6 Kisame Murdered His Comrades & Was Great At Keeping His Cool

Kisame was willing to kill his comrades in order to keep his village's secrets hidden and secure. When he learned that Fuguki intended to sell out his people anyway, he killed him and stole Samehada.
Considering his ruthlessness and ability to stay calm under pressure (especially proven during his fights against Jiraiya and the Leaf's Jonin during his incursion of Konoha), he has all of the qualities necessary to make for a strong imposter even if his jutsu wouldn't facilitate success.
5 Kakashi Was A Seasoned Anbu Member & Skilled Assassin

As a former member of the Anbu, Kakashi was naturally gifted in the art of stealth and assassination. Moreover, he's personable and charismatic, evincing that he could avoid suspicion with relative ease.
Further, he could use his Sharingan to analyze how long any crew member was doing their task and imitate it down to the second. This would allow him to convincingly fake out his opponents as he began to pick them off one by one, especially since they'd never identify his intentions until it was too late to react.
4 Danzo Could Survive Being Ejected From The Ship By Using The Izanagi

As the leader of the Foundation and a veteran of the First Shinobi War, Danzo should be able to pick off his targets discreetly. This is especially true given how well he evaded retribution for engineering the Uchiha genocide until many years later.
Even if Danzo was discovered for his treachery and ejected from the ship, he could use his Izanagi to rewrite reality and whisk himself back on board. Considering that he could use this ability ten times (and since there are only nine crewmates), he'd be unbeatable regardless of whether or not he was found out.
3 Obito Posed As Madara For A Long Time

The hallmark of being a good imposter is the ability to pretend you're someone you aren't. Since Obito convincingly acted as Madara until his benefactor's resurrection, this speaks to his qualifications and acting affinity.
It was further proven through how effortlessly he infiltrated the Akatsuki and later took control of it. The villain proved his subtlety once again when sneaking into the Leaf and getting alarmingly close to the newborn Naruto Uzumaki before he was finally discovered.
2 Kabuto Was A Trained Spy Who Can Put On A Convincing Performance

Although none of Kabuto's jutsu are directly conducive to his odds of winning at Among Us, he's more than intelligent enough to manipulate a lobby into befriending him. He was trained by Danzo's Foundation to infiltrate the other four great nations, with his skills only increasing with the tutelage of Orochimaru.
Considering that he could fool experienced Jonin into allowing him to take (and retake) the Chunin Exams dozens of times, it follows that he should be able to convince hapless crewmates of his innocence just as easily.
1 Zetsu Is A Master Of Turning People Against Each Other

Zetsu was a master of turning comrades against each other. It was of his design that Madara sought to cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi and declare war on the Senju, thereby plunging the world into chaos and facilitating Kaguya's return.
Additionally, the villain has displayed an ability to sink into the ground, effectively allowing him to "vent" across any area on the map at his leisure. Should he cautiously accuse the first person to find a body of self-reporting and state his case, many are likely to believe him.
