What happened to Yahiko's body after he died?


Nagato had an ability called the [Outer
Path](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Outer_Path) using which he could revive the
dead, transmit chakra to receivers. Using this ability of his, he created his
[Six Paths of Pain](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Six_Paths_of_Pain) technique.
He used the technique to embed some chakra rods into certain corpses
(including Yahiko's) and transmitted his chakra to the rods to control the
bodies.

As for why he did it, there are several reasons. Nagato got badly injured and
damaged during his battle with Hanzo (the same one when Yahiko died). He was
unable to move after that. Hanzo was still alive though. Nagato wanted to
avenge Yahiko and he also wanted to continue their dream previous dream of
peace (although his sense of peace got distorted). So Nagato still had to
fight. That is why he created the Six Paths of Pain technique to allow himself
to continue fighting and use his Rinnegan abilities. Secondly, he was very
fond of Yahiko. He used Yahiko's body to form the strongest Deva Path. In
terms of abilities, he was superior to the other paths.

As for what happened to Yahiko's body afterwards, well after Nagato died in
the Hidden Leaf after the battle with Naruto, Konan retrieved the bodies of
both Yahiko and Nagato and buried them in the Hidden Rain Village. And that is
where Yahiko's body rests.
