How does Nagato create and use so many Rinnegan eyes?


The corpses that Nagato uses for the Six Paths technique also possess Rinnegan
eyes! How did he get so many Rinnegan eyes?

Is it that the corpse used for one of the six paths has a Rinnegan activated
by default? Or is it a convention that Kishi has maintained just to picturize
and show us the connectivity?

Of course, they aren't true eyes.

Rinnegan occurs so rarely that the Sage of Six Paths was considered a myth, so
those multiple Rinnegan's are surely not distinct ones.

Nagato's bodies seemingly having their own Rinnegan is an ability provided by
the [Six Paths of Pain](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Six_Paths_of_Pain)
technique. According to Narutopedia:

> The Six Paths of Pain (ペイン六道, Pein Rikudō) is an Outer Path technique
> devised by Nagato after being crippled by Hanzō and rendered emaciated from
> the numerous chakra receivers embedded in his back by the Demonic Statue of
> the Outer Path. By piercing corpses with chakra receivers, **a wielder of
> the Rinnegan can manipulate the bodies as though they are their own.**

The article further says:

> Because of the fact that he was crippled, Nagato channelled the abilities of
> the Six Paths into six different bodies (one ability per body). **The only
> common features shared by these bodies were the Rinnegan they gained from
> this technique** , the chakra receivers each were pierced with and their
> bright orange hair, which had been dyed to match the Deva Path's natural
> hair colour.

In other words, the multiple Rinnegan's are like "projections" or copies of
Nagato's own Rinnegan, transmitted through the chakra rods. This theory can be
further confirmed based on the following:

> In Tobi's version of the Six Paths of Pain technique, his six bodies
> received a Rinnegan and a Sharingan, and he had a Rinnegan and a Sharigan at
> the time.
