a few things. itachi mentioned that the final secret behing the ultimate sharingan was immortality{indirectly implied as he called madara an incredible immmortal} and controlling the kyuubi and controlling it like a pet that only madara discovered{and we know that jiraya suspects that madara was teh only one who actually had the power to summon the kyuubi}. but we also know that madara is a shell of his former self and needed to use the sasuke{who would grow wings and fly like an eagle as opposed to become a snake} in some sort of wierd machine to regain the power of uchiha madara{apparently his own power}. he also has teleportation and phasing jutsus beyond the third hokage. but there are discrepancies, i think it mentioned in a manga that the third hokage while following itachi after he had slaughtered his clan witnessed the amaterasu and called it "madara's" jutsu{hope im not remembering a fake}. yet how can that be seeing as each mangekyo has shown different abilitied. also, on a side note, kakashi's space warping is a bit like madara{who we still dont know uses the technicue with or without the use of his sharingan}. there is also the fact that madara was BEATEN by the first hokage{when he left konohakagura and created akatsuki} as well as the 4th hokage{when he attacked konoha with the kyuubi}, and yet how is that possible if he is even close to the strongest. and why did he attack konoha to begin with along with the kyuubi attacking other villages unless there was sumthing there he needed? and still, the conditions necessary for the mangekyo havent been established{and killing the friend obviously isnt the only one}. and do remember that if madara truly is the most powerful, then whatever he is trying to acheive is probably bigger/stronger than the country destroying jutsu that pain is trying to create. and he even discussed the MACHINE with pain. and his tone with pain was one of authority, not cooperation.
as for pain goes, a few facts about him and the rinnegan{how much is based off the rinnegan, we dont know}
he is of the fuuma clan {where the giant fuuma shurikens and stuff come fron}
he is compatible with all elemental jutsu
he went into a berserk fit as a kid and sumhow easily murdered a chuunin in war without remembering anything and it is strongly implied that it was connected with his rinnegan's ability.
he has multiple bodies who share a collective ming and each have special abilities and are apparently immortal.{since the rinnegan is representative of the six lower worlds, it wud make sense that this ability is connected with the rinnegan}. and these bodies were apparently all people jiraya had beaten in the past
he was thought by jiraya to be the prophesized saviour due to his rinnegan as the posessor of the rinnegan was said to hold the power to save or destroy the earth. but he later called naruto the true destined kid{which begs the question, does naruto have the rinnegan}
yahiko, the friend of pain's{nagato} whose body he posesses looks a lot like both the fourth and naruto due to his face and blonde hair so maybe there is a relation there.
pain can create clones of super powerful people with 30% of their chakra and they can even use any special techniques or kekai genkai{when fake itachi used his sharingan although he cudnt use his mangekyo}
he casts th 9 illusionary dragon technique which seals bijuu.{the only other sealing technique known of this caliber is the 4th's shiki fuujin. although that was probably stronger since pain makes clear that the kyuuubi has to be sealed last and the sealing goes on for two days}
he is creating a jutsu able to destroy entire shinobi countries in one go and be reused with the bijuu.
he can telepathically contact any akatsuki.
the original rinnegan user rikodoh created the shinobi world and gave birth to jutsus.
now this isnt even close to what his true abilities are as they havent been completely revealed. but even this is a lot, and if madara is the superior, then he must be really sumthing. just saying, dont underestimated pain.
