Not entirely sure why we're discussing Naruto versus Nagato now? Nagato was stronger than Itachi, and Itachi was primarily powerful due to his sharp intellect and instincts (Neither of which Kabuto could use). Nagato on the other hand is primarily powerful due to the vast range of powers he has.

I think you're missing an important point: Naruto defeated pain on 2 conditions. The first was that Deva was out of commission, allowing him to fight the other 5 paths first. The second is that the Paths do not share powers and so if you take them out right, they're done for.
