@Sage

the paths werent by Genjutsu. rewatch the fight. Jiraiya stabbed all three with stone swords.

and even if they were taken down by Genjutsu that still did nothing to nothing to Nagato.

and also remember that was no ordinary Genjutsu that trapped the paths. it was Sage Mode powered Genjutsu. so Itachi would only have shot at the Paths with Tsukuyomi.
