He could put the seal on them and bend them like Boruto and Sasuke did. Matter of fact, why hasn't Minato ever teleported a kunai into someone's brain? He could teleport a bijuudama, so what's stopping him from doing this? Kamui snipe has nothing on this kinda stuff. If someone survives with the kunai in their brain, he can even teleport to them and finish the job.

A better question would be why didn’t Minato combine his Sage mode with Kyuubi chakra like Naruto did?

OT: Answer to both questions are nerfs and plot. They’re both too lethal.

I'd say not his style.

Like when he teleported behind Obito and grabbed his Kunai and rasenganed Obito. Grabbing a shuriken would be funny lol. Or bending and spreading the shurikens in an area when he could simply spread his kunais without requiring them to bend lol.

Yes those are kunai and he did bend them.

You do understand that this has nothing to do with six paths shared vision? (stupid question, ofc you don't) SIX paths shared vision requires, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 "puppets" in the case of Nagato and nowhere in these scans it is shown Itachi bending Kunais, neither the shared vision being used because.. There were no puppets, only one of his animal summons.

I do love how you twist facts 'tho.

one of those eyes belonged to a summon. and i'd consider the giant face thing that's controlled by nagata a literal puppet

@bold:There was a reason the KofH was blinded by Kunai and it wasnt for show. Also Nagato shared vsion extends to his other summon as well.

Kabuto makes reference to them and their shared vision as he mentions their purpose. The shared vison isn't only limited to the path bodies.

He does use Shurikens and is very good, deflected 20 from different positions with a single throw:

But he does not use them with FTG. Who knows why, but it is possible.

Why didn't he place the seal on his palm and use it to absorb and send back ninjutsu attacks (Kote)
Why didn't he use his time-space barrier to absorb people and leave them stuck wherever he sends Bijuu bombs before he releases them at another mark. (Kamui) or throw a Kunai in the Ocean and send opponents to the bottom.
When Obito was marked why didn't they just send attacks directly to him?:bdpf:

Apparently, the creators didn't think over or intentionally limited the potential of the abilities they created
