As we all know minato bested tobi with a rasengan to the back, during this time he set a formula on tobi without him knowing, now what i want to know could he have, instead of setting the contract to release the kyubi, performed the reaper death seal? Because it immobilizes the target and minato pulled half of the kyubi's chakra out rather fast. Could he have sucked tobi dry faster than he could react ;D (puns) Can he react once the seal is set?

Your thoughts? :) I am not saying this could have happened or should have, just speculating. :) have fun let me know. xd

I know he didn't do this because the kyubi was running about
I am sure hiruzen being the god that he was could have dealt with his somehow ;D. Or kushina sacrificing herself to give them time to find a new host :)

Sure he could have captured and/or finished off Tobi, but at that point probably all of Konoha or at least most of it would be destroyed by the Kyuubi. Making the capture or killing of Tobi kinda pointless

The kyuubi destroying the village was kind of more important at that moment.

Why do that? A kunai was enough. Tobi only survived thanks to plot no jutsu -_-'

I agree, I think hiruzen(according to his hype) could have dealt with kyubi, also kushina could have killed herself and they would have to find another host :) i am speculating if he could have done it:)

No, tobi couldve become intangible even if the ftg tag is on him.
Secondly izanagi should play a part if needed

He didn't in the time it took to use the contract seal to take the kyubi back, Minato also took out half of the kyubi's chakra (much more vast than tobi's) in very little time at all even with the distance. I think he could have gotten a good fraction. Also does being intangible effect your soul once the demons hand is in?

Yes, but he was only shown to have one eye then right? or am i wrong?

I don't think Izanagi would have played a role because it appears that Pre-Uchiha Massacre Tobi only had one eye as confirmed

why use a rasengan when you can just grab the kunai you have teleported to and cut off his head?
most likely minato had to undo the control of tobi on kyuubi

Well i think him dying would have made him lost control. I am not sure in that position he could have cut his head off.. I mean his arm swinging down would really reach his head there.

i think he could have finished him if he wanted to.

i think about face...then penis...then tits :shrug:

OT: yeah he should have just dealt with tobi there. 3rd hokage would have handled kyuubi with kushina's help. and to think how different the future would be. but anywho, i think he could have done it fast enough. tobi can't make his soul intangible...and he wouldn't see the attack coming so...yeah!
