The time the kunai was shown, Minato was on the battlefield already since long time ago, since meanwhile, he had time to throw kunais around the Juubi, go to a rock near a sea and throw another kunai and warp his TBB there.
& How on earth do you expect minato to accomplish all of that before tobirama could even arrive at the battlefield & before the juubi's tbb could make an impact. All of what you said would be
impossible for someone to just use shunshin to deal with.
all that before we actually saw the kunai in question,
The kunai in the ocean
had to be thrown first, & there's nothing disproving that he can throw his kunai in the midst of tobirama's hirashin, therefore he could've easily done what he did with FTG.
so the most logical assumption here is that the kunai we saw was placed long after Minato's appearance on the battlefield, so it had nothing to do with it
Why would he appear so early & only
just teleport the tbb in time? Was he trying to be cool by showing up at the last possible second? He just made it
I see nothing in this chapter that even imply the jutsu is not instant when we saw Minato teleporting Tobirama, Hiruzen and himself instantly on the different seal-location.
.....................Im talking about tobirama's jutsu..............Its
not instant, so minato can
easily throw his kunai to locations & still arive first.
Said jutsu is so fast that not even Obito can activate his phasing(near instant jutsu) in time. This jutsu has always been portrayed to be instant whether in the manga or databook and it will never change
^^^^
Think about it, if Minato got to the battlefield using nothing but ftg, how would he have time to react to the Bijuu-Dama? He shouldn't have seen it since he would have instantly teleported right into the blast. It's just like how the raikage combines his lightning shroud and body flicker, Minato uses ftg in tandem with Body flicker.
He was teleported by
tobirama's hirashin, giving him time to react (godly reactions) by throwing kunai in the proper areas before arriving first...Why is that so hard to fathom? Its definitely easier than minato using shunshin to do all the aforementioned feats.
Not even a genius like Kakashi knew the workings behind FTG, just saying:
You must be registered for see links
Thats the workings, not the name of the jutsu, this actually kinda proves that only minato would even know the proper name of
his jutsu, how could tobirama have known what minato's FTG is called? (I know he has FTG slash but that still makes no difference as minato could've called it
anything.) Calling it a form of "body flicker" makes more sense than calling it a form of "flying thunder god". Its just a generalization made by both rin & tobirama...
Shunshin and Hirashin are two different things. You don't see Tobirama complimenting Minato's superiority on Hirashin, he clearly said Shunshin. And Minato throwing his Hirashin kunai before showing up is not really a proof he reached there using Hirashin. You have to remember that Minato had no marking in the battlefield, he reached there using Shunshin, and from there he begun spreading his Hirashin kunai. Three of the kunai landed around the Juubi, for the formation of four to make use of them later, and one landed near Naruto, which had a panel right before his entrance.
Hiraishin (Flying thunder god) is the
name of the jutsu, youre assuming that tobirama knows what minato's teleportation jutsu is called...
Conclusion: Minato reached the battlefield using Shunshin. Only an ignorant reader would say otherwise.
Only an ignorant reader would assume that tobirama knows the name of minato's FTG, please gtfo with that logic
