If....that is IF Naruto somehow acquired the EMS from Sasuke, Naruto WOULD eventually awaken the Rinnegan all on his own.

Why do you guys insist on this pissing contest?

if you read the manga, Madara explained to Obito he unlocked it after Senju DNA, had a near death experience, which then awoken the Rinnegan, and as I said, Sasuke was almost the same, just no Senju DNA, just the Six paths portent power.

it has nothing to do with near death experience. it has everything to do with the fact it took his body that many years to adapt the senju DNA. if say Naruto were to gain access to sasukes DNA he would eventually awaken the Rinnegan(and as a by product the sharingan) but since both sasuke and Naruto have the full power of indra and ashura it would likely be an instantaneous upgrade Are you sure about that? Go to Google Images and search 'how madara got the rinnegan.'
