Nagato remains the strongest character.

[HNIC]

Aside from upgrades and stolen powers, Nagato remains the strongest shinobi in the series.

People seem to judge Nagato's ability to his limitations in utilizing multiple Pein bodies, such as; ST lapse, ST power, etc. in fact, his of "power" was due to having his chakra divided into 7 individuals.

ST consumes the most chakra for Nagato, which requires the most focus the reason for the lapse and its range in power. Ex) after using ultimate ST Konan commented on Nagato's chakra level. Ex) ST has shown different power scales.

Ultimately, what I'm saying is Nagato in his prime defeats all standard base shinobi, that includes Ems Madara, hokages, etc. He NEVER had the intent to kill nor was EVER defeated.

Nagato was never shown to his true power and ultimate ST trashes mostly all techniques

 

[Joker]

Technically he's not, "aside from upgrades," who's eyes does he have again...?

 

[Flakez]

Nagato has Madara's eyes soo...

 

[Six Paths]

The eyes are Madara's. If that is not considered stolen then the Kyuubi power isn't either since the Kyuubi gave it to Naruto by it's own will.

 

[Gaara Of The Death]

Aside from upgrades and stolen power...take them away this guy loses to part 2 Sakura.....HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA.


Hashirama>Nagato.​

He was introduced into the series as being the possessor of those eyes, so it doesn't matter.

 

[Gerkak]

You know his aren't his right?

The eyes are Madara's. If that is not considered stolen then the Kyuubi power isn't either since the Kyuubi gave it to Naruto by it's own will.

Nagato never stole those eyes. Kish introduced him as the solo user.

The kyuubi is Naruto's power.

 

[Joker]

He was introduced into the series as being the possessor of those eyes, so it doesn't matter.

But it's not his though, we can't just dismiss that.

 

[xcoyote]

Lmao .

 

[Punk Hazard]

Ummm no, that's not how it works. Madara's introduction was Edo, and Edo Madara>Nagato.

[Da Best Ever]

technically the eyes werent stolen, they given to him...

 

[Fluffyman]

EMS Madara and Hashirama annihilate him.

4-5 trail Naruto pushed through his ST, he wouldn't be able to put a scratch on Madara's PS or Hashirama's Statue even if he were to put all his chakra into a single ST.

MS Obito beats him too. Nagato is WAY too slow for him

Shisui KA.


Thats pretty far from "all".

 

[Sageflash]

But got rammed by Itachi.

 

[HNIC]

Y'all are so simple minded, I'm talking character introduction and how characters were portrayed. Just as the kyuubi has always been Naruto's power, rinnsegan has always been Nagato's power

 

[Joker]

Even then, Hashirama still stomps. If we're talking portrayal, God of Shinobi > Some Shinobi that happened to obtain Madara's Rinnegan, who couldn't use it to it's fullest potential.

 

[paratise]

"Asides from upgrades"?

A thing every ninja have?

 

[KingHashirama]

There are arguably 20 characters who can beat Nagato in a fight.

I really have no care for this imaginary "nagato" that is created by the Nagato fan community to make him compete in top 10.

Manga = FACT

Fact = Nagato ain't top 10 material.

Kisame's chakra levels > Nagato's.. Just saying.

Again, Nagato wasn't trying to kill Naruto and Nagato didn't use ST to its fully potential than or at that moment.

He defeats both Madara and the hokage

Obito is sensed and kamui is repelled

 

[Gaara Of The Death]

Y'all are so simple minded, I'm talking character introduction and how characters were portrayed. Just as the kyuubi has always been Naruto's power, rinnsegan has always been Nagato's power

It was portrayed as his power, until Kishi said that they wasn't his eye. So no it's not Nagato's power. And he still loses to:

Any version of adult Obito.

Madara.

Hashirama.

KA.

Naruto.
