Especially considering the fact that Itachi specializes in visual genjutsu. So for instance if Itachi uses a strong enough genjutsu (like Tsukuyomi) wouldn't he pretty much defeat all 7 pairs of eyes at once? This is also possible to be honest. But its unclear if Itachi can really pull that off. But i wouldn't put it past him. He would stil have to have genjutsu all 6 at a minimum, and I don't think the real nagato would be affected, but it won't matter because Itachi can just go home after he deals with the 6 pains. But yeah, we would need more information on how the pains are connected. We know nagato can control their bodies but we know he doesn't experience the same pain they do, he just can see the world through their eyes. Each body has its own chakra network, so in theory even if you tsukuyomi one of the pains the experience won't travel back to nagato himself.
