!GAH! I've been trolling all this time for an update this week for nothing? Bloody hell! I suppose thats the life of an anime/manga fan, neh?

Anyone think that Pain/Pein's (?) trump card might be Jiraiya? I mean, shouldn't he have tried to use his body?
And a quick question if anyone knows the answer, what does the rinnegan do? He's essentially controling six puppet bodies or something like that right now, but what exactly are the rinnegan powers? When he killed those guys as a kid, he didn't have any puppet bodies or anything like that.
This came up before. Jiraiya mentioned that Nagato is able to use all six elements, which no one person can do, and that the rinnegan possesses the most powerful doujutsus in the world. On top of that, from everything that was said they make it seem as if Rikudo sennin was omnipotent. However other than chibaku tensei, Pain hasn't shown us anything near that level and he himself said his chibaku tensei is nothing compared to what Rikudo supposedly could do.Originally Posted by Sam98034
I mentioned this before but I think at some point something happened to them that resulted in Nagato's body being in the condition we presently see it in and in order to compensate for that weakness, he began using the other six bodies and created Pain. Most people disagreed with me though. Most seem to think that Nagato made his body the way it is in order to gain power which seems to contradict what Jiraiya said. Indeed if all the things that was said about Rikudo and the rinnegan are true then Nagato would have only made himself weaker.
Either way I guess we'll find out what the case is soon.

Dreaming impossible dreams.
Sapphire is awesome!
Yes, I do recall the 6 elements and the best eyes deal...but I don't think we've seen anything like that at all. What powers do the eyes actually have? It seems that whatever powers the rinnegan have, Pain isn't using them. He doesn't even use elemental attacks, unless you wan't to call things like gravity, summoning, and eating chakra, elements. He seems to be using a kind of long-range mind control/puppet technique. Maybe this back story will help us understand what his powers should be and how they ended up doing what they do now.
Oh yeah, I guess he can make it rain.

Bringing back Jiraiya from the dead would be too predictable.
What we need now is a revived Hanzo to fight Naruto!

I am very sure Pain has used his Rinnegan to his fullest extent. You're forgetting also that complicated jutsu are a combination of two or more different elemental attacks. Besides, the fact that Nagato is using jutsu that he developed surely implies that his jutsu are stronger than ones he has already encountered, which leads to deduced speculation that his jutsu are self-proclaimed "the strongest".
I don't remember "eating chakra" either.
Also, the Sage of Six Paths (the first one with Rinnegan) was also the first one to use ninjutsu. I believe that statement actually means something significant to Nagato's power.

I want to believe that we are about to enter a hand to hand combat phase that would be awsome, if the writer so chose to make it go that way, its the only thing they could do to make this more amazing, basically make him disconnect from his chakra device and regain normal weight and be able to use those 6 elemental abilities. I don't think Pain is at his limits just yet.. But a kid can dream can't he?
That's probably what the case is, but it's still just speculation right now. We don't know if he can master various jutsus quickly, but he probably can. I can't remember what elemental jutsus he's used or when he saw chakra, did I miss that? (Naruto's doesn't count since everyone can see that when he goes kyubi) He can see through reanimated corpses, which probably has something to do with the rinnegan and that machine he uses. And the 'eating chakra' thing, I meant that fat guy that absorbs attacks. I guess all his attacks could be an eye thing, but it seems like the rinnegan are a lot different than the other eye skills that are more pronounced in their abilities then. The sharingan's and byukagan's abilities are pretty obvious when used, you can see exactly what part they play. If he is using his eyes, it's not that obvious what the eyes are actually doing.Originally Posted by enkoujin
