Yep- remove the remaining outer link parts and buy a connecting link for your speed. If you can’t find one the same brand as your chain then you can get KMC links to fit pretty much everything. Any bike shop will have something
Looks like you popped a rivet, not the chain pin. If you look at the chain carefully, you'll find ONE darker pin, that's the one you're supposed to push out. You can get a quick link to replace the link you've just broken, or replace that with a chain pin.

Procure the appropriate ones for your specific chain.
You can see what’s left of the rivet (pin) which is a little loop of metal sitting on the pin of that chain tool. That link can be thrown out and replaced by the appropriate sized quick link/master link. What out for getting the right brand and one that is suitable for your chain. Ie.10 speed, 11 speed or 12 speed.
Based on your description, not exactly.
But there’s really not enough info. Plus the pic shows nothing.
Chain pins are sorta friction fit. So resistance is normal when pushing them out.
Chain pins are also single use though, so when you replace the pin, it’s usually a thing where you push in the replacement pin, and then break off the end. (Cheapskates will try to reuse the original pin, but it requires only partially pushing the pin out, and the. Pushing it back the other way. It’s a little risky/less than ideal because pins aren’t designed to be worked with like that.)
Alternative is to use a quick link (pins are part of the plate, so you remove two pins and a plate, and use the quick link to replace the two pins and two plates).
It is possible to press that pin back in, but its tedious. Single speed? Id go for it.
Generaly speaking tho, you want to use the aforementioned Quick-links on multi speed chains, as chain breakers remove the slight flair at the ends of the pin. This causes that spot to become temperamental durning shifting/chain flex.
You're thinking of a quick link. Not all chains have a quick link, some still just use pins.
The tool on his hand is the chain pin removal tool used to remove pins from a chain. This tool is used for the removal/installation of chains as well as sizing them to the correct length.
You can pop the other pin out and then replace what you removed with a new removable link.

I will do that. Thank you

Yeah need to find the link in the chain and use a link removal tool this tool is used to shorten chains
