Wow. Wow. Wow! I couldn't wait to respond to this thread. There are a few things I want to establish here first:
1. Nagato WAS of the Uzumaki Keke Genkai, as is Naruto (Thanks to his mother Kushina).
2. The Uzumaki clan IS A descendant of the Senju clan.
3. To use all 6 paths of the Rinnegan, the Ocular powers of the Sharingan are ALSO
needed. i.e. The user must be of the Senju and Uchiha Keke Gankai.
4. Nagato was never meant to possess all 6 paths, Only Madara (and maybe Sasuke) have this ability now.
That stated, I believe the Rinnegan and Sharingan are equal. So any real difference
in power, depends solely on the user--I read a bunch of responses that made no sense, I think people should read and understand the Manga before commenting on it. If you are unsure of something, simply reference--thus making Madara (and maybe Sasuke) the only living Keke Genkai users to have the ability to awaken all 6 paths. Though I do ponder if Nagato had to awaken the first 3 paths (Senju keke genkai), in order for Madara (Uchiha keke genkai) to implant the Rinnegan eye, or for it to work for him at all, (even though im sure he could implant it anyway as he "gave" Nagato his Rinnegan, meaning he is compatible with it due to his bloodline ties...) which would make sense. This we wont know until the story of, whether or not Madara can actually use all six paths, is revealed. All six paths of the Sage are needed in order to control the Jubi, and even though all six were channeled into Nagato's eyes, he himself was only capable of 3: The Animal, Asura, and Human paths (in my opinion). The Deva, Outer and Peta paths seem to require a strong user with manipulation and control abilities (Sharingan) which explains why Nagato used the six paths of pain, because he could not produce all six paths with just his chakra, also it should be worth noting the Six Paths of Pain were created within the Rinnegan by way of the Asura path as a way to harness the
power of all six paths. Plus using dead bodies for the six paths of pain(6PoP), to produce an individual path, makes it easier for the user to get the most out of this technique, Nagato did not possess the Sharingan therefore Chakra Rods were used for this purpose, whereas Madara does have the Sharingan, so he doesn't need to use the Asura Path to control the 6PoP. i.e. He does not have to be stationary to control this technique The Naraka path I believe is shared by both Sharingan and Rinnegan dojutsu users as it is mostly a technique used for interrogation. Hope this clears up some things. And I agree with the guy who started this thread, The Rinnegan is not the ultimate Keke Genkai, in the hands of someone like Nagato, however it can be (matter of opinion) when combined with the dojutsu of the Sharingan.
