Those that control this power, will be a God. Madara's Case Madara awoke the Rinnegan at a very old age, yet as a old man he was show with having the Rinnegan awaken all the time we saw him with it. The Rinnegan was later given to Nagato, then Obito before being returned to Madara. As a Edo Tensei, Madara showed the ability to shift between his Sharingan and Rinnegan at will, a ability that he never used after becoming a human. Nagato's Case Nagato was the first character we saw that used the Rinnegan's abilities, and we later got to know that the Rinnegan was never his to begin with. This was the reason people believed that Nagato was never able to deactivate the Rinnegan he had, as he never awoke it. Sasuke's Case Sasuke recently awoke his own Rinnegan, a unique one at that. However, when he was shown outside of a battle (waiting for Madara and Black Zetsu to return) he was closing his eye that contained the Rinnegan instead of just disabling it. People assume that this was because Sasuke either had a drawback to deactivating it, or that he just chose not to as Madara could return at any time. However in the latest sketches of the new movie, "The Last" Sasuke is still shown with his Sharingan and Rinnegan activated. Hagoromo's Case Hagoromo most likely had the Rinnegan from birth, though it was said that he "awoke" it by Black Zetsu. He probably meant that Hagoromo naturally had it, and awoke it at a later time in his life. (As a natural part of his life, like the Sharingan for the Uchiha) . However, even after his death he was shown with the Rinnegan activated. (He was also a peaceful person, the Rinnegan is a weapon of war.) There is no reason for him to have it activated when he is outside of battle. Conclusion: Those that awaken the Rinnegan cannot deactivate it. Now hold your hats until I have explained this conclusion! We know that the Rinnegan and Sharingan drains the user for chakra while they are activated, so there would be no reason to have it activated outside of a battle unless you have a immense amount of chakra/high quality chakra. Otherwise, people like Hagoromo should have disabled it to spare his chakra (prior to sealing the Juubi within him) as it would have drained him for chakra and he is a peaceful person. Now, it may be that the Rinnegan doesn't drain the user for chakra while activated like the Rinnegan does. (That was never really confirmed anywhere I think.) Now there has been a single person who has shown the ability to swap between the Rinnegan at will and that was Madara Uchiha when he was still a Edo. (Though after activating it once he never deactivated it.) This may be a improvement to his Edo Tensei that allowed him to swap between them. Or it may be that his Edo Tensei allowed him to "reawaken" the Rinnegan at will as a way to hold it back from the fans. When Madara was alive, and after activating the Rinnegan once as a Edo, he was never shown deactivating it. (It remained active, yet he gained access to his Sharingan Abilities as shown when he uses Perfect Susano'o with the Rinnegan activated.) He most likely had access to his Sharingan abilities as its only the Sharingan that shows the evolution, its their chakra to manifests its powers. (So as long as they have chakra after reaching Mangekyou level, they can still use its powers as shown when Madara preformed Susano'o without his eyes.) Second Conclusion: No one (including special cases like Edo Tensei) has show the ability to deactivate the Rinnegan at will. Meaning that it is most likely impossible. (This goes for everyone of them, including Sasuke's.) |
