Theory: Pein=Nagato There were three orphans: Konan (girl), Yahiko(blonde) and Nagato (dark-haired) Yahiko was the leader of the three. He had ambitions, and his own understanding of the world. As we know Pein changes bodies but his eyes are always the same. If Nagato died and Yahiko took his eyes like Kakashi`s sharingan then eyes would be attached to body so new body=causal eyes. So Konan, Yahiko and Nagato were the closest teammates ever because they were orphans and lost their relatives. Yahiko was the leader. Konan and Nagato believed in him and his goals. But it’s was a tough time and it seems like Nagato was the strongest of three so one day Yahiko was killed. Nagato took his body and he and Konan continue to follow Yahiko`s ideals. In Ch.372 p.8 Konan:"Now it`s too late... We act to make his plans reality. After that Kishimoto revealed us Yahiko`s way of thought. That’s why I think Konan didn’t mean Madara`s plans but Yahiko`s plans because he was their teammate their closest friend ever their bond. And it means that he is dead. Nagato to mark the point of his renewal took new name - Pein because pain represents what his life were and what life of his enemies will be. I think the first Pein`s body that we have seen is Yahiko`s. Then it means that Yahiko had some strange power like controlling Pein. Maybe Yahiko started civil war in Hidden Rain Village and then was killed by Amagakure`s leader the Salamander Hanzou. That’s why Konan and Nagato killed all his relatives, friends and etc. It was judgment for threat to Yahiko`s dreams. So Oro, Jiraiya and Tsunade were in Amagakure and at that time they recieved title of the Konoha Sanin. So it long before they split up and get their own apprentices. So Pain is nearly the same age or older than Minato. Yahiko is Juugo? [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v310/chrisgo/hulik.jpg[/img] I've got this picture in photobucket..
