With the Outer Path, the user is able to control life and death by [[Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique|reviving the dead]], [[Demonic Statue Chains|bind and restrict foes]], as well as create and control the [[Six Paths of Pain]].<section end=summary /> == Overview == Because this path ability gives him power over life and death, [[Nagato]] could use the [[Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique]] to resurrect [[Madara Uchiha]] by summoning his soul from the mouth of the King of Hell and be brought back to life. However, to Obito's dismay, Nagato chose to use his ability to revive the populace of [[Konohagakure]] which killed him in the process.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 449, page 1</ref> During the [[Fourth Shinobi World War]], [[Kabuto Yakushi]] made note of how he could have Nagato kill the [[jinchūriki]] temporarily, store their souls in the King of Hell and then revive them at a later time.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 551, page 4</ref> With the Outer Path, Nagato also devised the [[Six Paths of Pain]] by transmitting chakra directly to other bodies, turning that body into an extension of the user able to relay visual information to him, as do the creatures summoned through the [[Animal Path]] technique and the [[King of Hell]].<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 556, pages 5-6</ref> After obtaining the Rinnegan, Obito took Nagato's Six Paths of Pain to another level with the reincarnated jinchūriki by using [[Demonic Statue Chains|chakra chains]] to maintain his control over the Tailed Beasts in his possession. <gallery orientation="none" position="center" widths="200" columns="2" captionalign="left"> Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique 1.png|Fukasaku being revived with the Outer Path: Samsara of the Heavenly Life Technique.

This is opposed to the teachings of orthodox Buddhism, the {{translation|''Naidō''|内道|lit meaning=Inner Path}}, and is thus considered misguided and heretical. * The [[Demonic Statue of the Outer Path]] may be related to this ability, due to the name. * Naruto referred to the control of the [[Six Paths of Pain]] as {{translation|''Gedō no Jutsu''|外道の術|lit meaning=Outer Path Technique}}, and that the Paths' ability to share visual information with the original body stemmed from that technique.<ref>''Naruto'' chapter 565, page 6</ref> == References == <references/> [[es:Camino Externo]] Summary: Minor edit Follow this page Cancel
