Theory: Why Nagato was given the Rinnegan - The truth.

[F1N1X]

How else could Madara know Nagato by name when he was summoned..................?

my best guess is that kabuto told him about nagato but as for this statement idk:shrug:

 

[hanothemano]

Are u seriously saying that jiraya was alive when madara died,while the 3rd hokage was still a kid,being trained by the 2nd,wht are u saying U_Ujiraya was not alive when madara died

Even thou the first hokage was tsunade's grandfather the difference between them would be round 40-50 years i.e. tsunade would have been 10 years old and hokage 50-60 years old. This means that when the sannin were fighting hanzo in the 2nd Ninja War they would've been roughly 20 years old which means madara uchiha must've be round 70 years of age.

This is still possible but given the state he was in due to his battle, he must've been close to death and yeah he chose nagato due to his high chakra reserves.

Cool theory, I guess I'll agree, but only cuz i didnt think this threw or do any research to counter sooo... I concur o.o

this makes no sense I think they screw up the story line cause madara died long before nagato was born cause nagato grew up during the 4th great ninja war and he is around the same age as kakashi.they say the SO6 had two children one got his charka and the other had the sharigan so how does nagato got the rinnegan unless some were along the way the uchiha and senju mated.if tobi had given nagato the rinnegan the nagato charka would of been drain from not being of the bloodline like kakashi and would of never master it to such a degree.

You do know Nagato is like in his 40's right? And he grew up in the Second great shinobi war not the fourthU_U...................
