@Elve Hag's chakra equals Rinnegan. Hag gave Naruto and Sasuke each half of his chakra. Therefor according to your comment Naruto SHOULD have awakened it because that's the only requirement. That is wrong and I'll explain why. You need Indra transmigrant flesh if you are a Ashura transmigrant to awaken Rinnegan.. and Ashura transmigrant flesh if you are an Indra transmigrant to awaken Rinnegan.. you need to have the flesh/cells in order to generate the chakra itself. Hence Madara having Hashi cells and Sasuke having Hashi cells. Naruto does NOT have implanted flesh/cells from Madara/Sasuke so he will not awaken the Rinnegan. That is literally the only plausible explanation.
