Although I am not a fan of the whole "The one / the child of prophecy" in any story as it always sucks. I would be a lot happier if this is confirmed in the manga it self. But look at it this way. The prophecy said some thing along the lines of Jiraiya training a student who will one day make a decision that will either destroy the ninja world, or consume it in darkness.
Nagato made the choice to trust in Naruto and allow him to live, if he had made the decision to capture Naruto, he would have delivered him to Tobi / Obito. Then Killer Bee would not have been able to elude capture for long by him self. OR They would still have used the tentacle that Sasuke captured. Meaning the 10 Tails would be in a far more powerful state that it is in now, Naruto wouldn't be in the war meaning bad times for all.
If there are people who say that Naruto beat Nagato hands down, well remember that Naruto had to find the real Pein / Nagato. then have a look at this link
Nagato states that at this close range he could easily control Naruto with his chakra. Nagato was strong, Konan was there. They WOULD win against Naruto. But the choice made by Nagato was for Naruto to live and find an answer for peace, to rebuild what he had destroyed, to make right what Nagato had done wrong.
From this I believe that Nagato was the actual Child of Prophecy, not Naruto. At least I'd rather believe that
Thoughts?
