If Nagato had attacked the Leaf with the intent to kill Naruto

[Shadow Phantasm]

Would he have succeeded?My answer is yes because at that time no could stop Pain and the Deva Path single-handedky destroyed the Leaf so if Nagato wanted to kill everyone including Naruto he could have done so.

Nagato was at Mount Myoboku at the beginning.

And Deva Path would have captured it if it was'nt for Minato.

 

[Nous]

Yes he would have won with killing intent. Simply, he would just use Chou Shinra Tensei in the beginning to not waste as much chakra as he did before he did that and then wait for Naruto and then have his Shinra Tensei charged up and go wreck him.

Yea but OP is saying that Pain might just Shinra Tensei the whole place thinking Narutos there.

If he did that, who knows Kurama might run rampart.

 

[ItachiStillSolos]

It goes down to if Naruto will accept Kurama's chakra U_U. Yes? Then 6 Paths would have lost. No? Naruto would have been killed.

 

[ballerjordan]

He probably could if Nagato intended to kill not capture

 

[Barrath]

He had the intent to kill, he just did not initially do everything in his power to kill Naruto. Even if he had, I think Naruto would have found a way to beat Nagato/Pain because of his ninja will, as corny as that sounds.

 

[Cosman]

If his intent was to kill and not capture, then he'd probably kill Naruto, yes.

 

[kunde]

i dnt think so...because naruto was fighting to avenge jiraiya...not to protect himself frm getting captured...either way naruto's kyuubi wud hav gone rampage n killed nagato...:devil:

Why did't Nagato just send Pain in the beginning of the series? :|

Why did't Nagato just send Pain in the beginning of the series? :|

Because of Plot No Jutsu.

 

[Avinash012]

Nagato win's...........

I think the fight probably would have turned out roughly the same way. Most of the pertinent information came from Ma and Pa toad. The only piece of information Naruto wouldn't have had was the time delay between Shinra Tensei uses.

Since Naruto wasn't in the village during the attack, Pain probably would have crushed the village and left, assuming that he had killed Naruto. He might have left a few of the paths behind to clean up and make sure, but I doubt he would have left all Six Paths there. Naruto would have come back to the village in much the same manner, but instead of Pain being there ready to fight, Naruto would just find everybody dead. If some Paths were still there, Naruto could probably handle them. Then he would hunt down Nagato and slaughter him.

 

[Bijuu13]

Of course . He already destroyed 80% of the place and that was just interrogation mode

 

[medal32]

Yep, he pretty much already did it. Ya know when he pinned him down and all that

 

[Kαmi]

Definitely, Pain had his opportunity to kill Naruto but that wasn't his goal.

I believe it was because they had to seal the bijuu in a certain order but even then they were taking too long as Tobi alluded to. Not only was Akatsuki behind schedule due in large part to Orochimaru's departure, but the longer it took them to capture the other bijuu the stronger Naruto was becoming. By the time Akatsuki go their proverbial shit together Naruto had become a viable threat.

and if kakashi had used kamui on deva path in the start of the fight,he would have surly beaten him
and if tusoande had given kakashi some chakra,he would have beaten all pain(as kakashi wasn't use kamui well in this time but now he use it well so ....)
