Pain was the manifestation of Nagato’s anger and despair. As the leader of the Akatsuki, he commanded respect and fear. His use of the Six Paths of Pain allowed him to control six bodies simultaneously, each wielding unique powers.

Pain’s destruction of Konoha and his battle with Naruto were pivotal moments in the series. His ultimate defeat and decision to revive those he had killed showcased the impact of Naruto’s belief in understanding and forgiveness.
