Something that randomly came into mind after seeing some threads about it.
I got it from:

Basically, I don't think anyone is actually supposed to get the rinnegan. Lets follow the path of the sharingan first.
Before starting, lets assume Rikkudo Sennin knew the steps to get the Rinnegan, after all he created the basics of all ninjutsu.

1. Unlock your Sharingan through a near death experience; Wouldn't be too bad for SO6P, as everybody has those days.

2. Unlock your Mangekyou through losing someone dear to you; A little more extreme, but still, it happens.

3. Unlock your EMS through killing, or harvesting your dead or alive brothers eyeballs; SO6P should have realized the treachery of mankind by this point, as he became famous through ending a war and killing the 10-tails(assuming he knows these steps).

4. (Assumed) Implant your body with Senju DNA and wait for the rinnegan to come up; He should now assume that his two children will fight over their powers, eyes or dna, or they will begin to breed with each other, thus killing off their lineage quicker.

So in order for someone from the Uchiha clan to continue the SO6P's work, they would either have to kill their brother, or harvest his eyes, and breed or kill from their sister clain.

Someone from the Senju clan would have to Kill or Harvest an Uchiha's EMS in order to gain the rinnegan(assumed).

Another alternative would be for them to work together, which at this point is hardly likely, being 2 "living" Uchiha left, and a handful of Senju descendants left.

Now, Rikkudo likely knew the intentions of both sons. I say this because without him knowing them, he would not be able to make a valid reason as to why he made his younger son his successor. Thus, he would have likely passed it on to the eldest. Which we know, is not the case. After passing his teachings of peace onto the younger son, both sons instantly fought and now both Clans are at war. Surely Rikkudo should have foreseen this activity and should have made a more decisive decision on how someone would control the 10-tails, should it ever return.

Unless, Rikkudo never intended anyone ever to get the Rinnegan, and for one of his sons to establish peace in the world. So basically his plan failed miserably, besides a slither of hope in Naruto. Which I suppose is where our story line comes in. This also explains why when someone actually did get the Rinnegan, they went after peace, but in the wrong way(Nagato).

Comment below your ideas and thoughts, and remember this isn't a theory, this is just my thought process on the matter of the Rinnegan. Lets keep the comments productive and thanks for your views! :bye:

If he didn't want anyone to have the Rinnegan, couldn't the almighty "god of shinobi" Rikudo Sennin have gotten rid of any way to get the Rinnegan?


I mean he did have a jutsu called "creation of all things", couldn't he have created sons that weren't extra OP and born with something that could potentially revive the Juubi?


Well, I honestly don't know what Rikudo Sennin was thinking.

If he did that then where would all the fun we call plot be! :dunno:

I still believe in my theory; The Rinnegan is a manifestation of the Juubi's influence (Chakra) on the body. The same thing would happen if someone had the power of all the Bijuu's (Naruto).

Madara did it in a way that was different. He reverse engineered the original bloodline and achieved the awakening of the Rinnegan.

It's possible, but again these are just my thoughts. I just wanted to see what everyone thought about how I thought about the rinnegan's reasoning.
