1. Naruto realized already how bad if he would change into the Fox Mode. So, this time, he will be more careful.
2. Although Naruto realized this earlier through the previous Naruto Manga chapter, but at least he’s now positive that the body he’s fighting is just puppets and the real one is just controlling this somewhere.
3. Naruto realized already that the rods pierced into the body of the Pains are chakra receiver. While in the Sage Mode, Naruto can trace back the source of the chakra transmitted into the chakra receiver pierced on the body of the Pains.

Although the battle of Naruto and Nagato on this chapter is quite short but it made me enjoy for the fact that Naruto really is now matured and has grown much. He’s even more smart than the other shinobis of Konoha.

The last pages of this chapter showed us the battle between the Rasen Shuriken of Naruto vs the Shinra Tensei of Pain.

I know Pain has nothing against Naruto especially that Naruto know very well the weakness of Pain’s Shinra Tensei. By the next chapter, we’ll know already what will happen to the last body of the six path of Pains.

I think, after destroying the last body of Pain, Naruto will now head to the Rain Country to face Nagato face to face.

Pain is Nagato. He’s real body lies in the tower of the Rain Country. His 6 bodies which are called 6 paths of Pain are just puppet controlled by Nagato.

From the very first time when Nagato, Yahiko, and Conan were revealed in Naruto Manga through the analysis of Jiraiya, I was already thinking that Nagato is the real Pain just because he is the original Renigan user among the three. However, the person that represent Pain or Nagato is the body of Yahiko.

Don’t you remember when Jiraiya asked Pain what happened to Yahiko? Pain told Jiraiya that Yahiko is one of the sacrifices for the Peace that Nagato was dreaming of. This means that Yahiko was killed in one of the battles that they encountered. But since, Nagato loved Yahiko (in the sense that they all grow including Konan, parentless and grew as one group and loved themselves as siblings), so to preserve the body of Yahiko, he made it as his 1 of the 6 paths of Pain.

Pain’s Defeat

While reading the last pages of the Naruto Chapter 436, I immediately thought that Pain would be failed to totally capture Naruto.

It was revealed that Nagato has used up most of his Chakra already. The body of Yahiko that was the one fighting against Naruto seems still strong but the fact is that Nagato who was controlling it lost his chakra already.

Besides, the group of Konoha Shinobi investigating the characteristics of Pain realized already where Pain is, so we’ll be expecting that the rest of the Konoha Shinobi who survived the attack of Pain will be heading to where Nagato stayed.
