Nagato is Pain, holy hell. The Six Paths of Pain bodies are all dead beings controlled by Nagato with the Outer Path, the powers they wield are from Nagato. The Deva Pain would not be able to use any of his powers if it weren't for the fact his body is connected to Nagato through the chakra rods. All the Pain bodies are is an elaborate version of Sasori's puppet technique when you look at it. The bodies are simply puppets for Nagato. Every feat those bodies had are Nagato's.
