Who said anything about other Konoha nins attacking him? Nagato is spitting up blood, used most of his chakra, and appears to be at the end of his ropes. I was more expecting him to die from completely exhausting himself, not from an attack.

There are two scenarios in which I can see this happening. The first being, Nagato accepts Naruto's answer and "passes the torch" to him, so to speak. Then dies.
The second, Nagato refuses to accept Naruto's answer and insists that pain is still the only way and launches a final attack at Naruto, using up the rest of his chakra. Then dies.
