When have you seen Minato dodge an attack without using FTG...I know it was said that he had unparalleled reflexes...but having great reflexes don't exactly make you fast

Minato grabbed baby Naruto in midair without the use of FTG. He covered some distance to catch Naruto. If I'm not mistaken, Obito was even surprised at his base speed.

Yeah, he found a way to land a blow on obito, so why not land a blow on shisui? : P

I see your point...So let me ask you this do you think Shisui would give him time to disperse his Kunai's?
Shisui has never been seen in combat, his fighting style is unknown.

I know...I wasn't asking who would win a fight but can Minato hit him

I won't go beyond the manga simply because it would all be speculation. What i can say is:

Based on Minato's Feats with FTG and shunshin + his other techs vs Shisui's hype with Body Flicker...Minato takes this.

You don't seem to understand the body flicker technique. It's not specified for combat. Besides it is not instant teleportation. You use some diversion to make it seem that way. 1st databook says:
Body Flicker Technique (瞬身の術, Shunshin no Jutsu)
Ninjutsu, D-rank, Supplementary
Users: Gaara, Hatake Kakashi, et al

A movement technique with extreme speed like a gust of wind!!

Appearing along with the wind, disappearing like the wind: the ninja's instantaneous movement technique. This super fast movement is almost impossible to grasp with the naked eye. If seen by an ordinary person, it would seem as if the user has teleported... In reality, the user has vitalized his body with chakra and moved at super speeds. The amount of chakra used up differs depending on the distance and elevation of their stopping point in comparison to the starting point.

The cloud of sand dances in the wind

[picture of Kakashi using the Body Flicker]
↑→Haku's and Kakashi's Body Flicker. Dancing leaves and disappearing in an instant like mist. There are many variations of the "Body Flicker" for the various villages and user. Gaara's use includes the "Sand Body Flicker"*. There are also the "Mist Body Flicker"**, "Water Body Flicker"***, and "Leaf Body Flicker"****, among many others.


*Sand Body Flicker (砂瞬身, Suna Shunshin)
**Mist Body Flicker" (霧瞬身, Kiri Shunshin)
***Water Body Flicker" (水瞬身, Mizu Shunshin)
****"Leaf Body Flicker" (木ノ葉瞬身, Konoha Shunshin)
It's low rank jutsu, and it has never been seen used for combat. A used some sort of it, for combat, but he does it by utilizing raiton, which is different.

No, Shisui doesn't have a chance against Minato.

I wasn't asking who would win a fight if that's the case I think Shisui would win just because of KA...Minato can't counter something he doesn't know about

Does nobody realize Minato is the fastest BASED SPEED ninja and he has ftg/ftgII. He could definitely touch shisui.

Where does it say that Minato was the fastest based speed character... If that's the case he wouldn't have used FTG to escape the raikage's fastest punch

Well my answer wasn't who wins. I said he doesn't have a chance, thus meaning, he can't dodge a blow from Minato with body flicker, thus answering your initial question.

Besides absolutely nothing is know about Shisui. I don't know, why anyone tries to compare him to others. All we know, is his KA. One of the techniques (2 types of KA, one for each eye) seem to require eye contact. The one used on Ita that is. The other doesn't. Surely you could give your target a command to commit suicide with one of the eyes, but this eye can't be judged in actual combat. It has 10 years between each time the jutsu can be used. It's not a combat jutsu, it is meant for other purposes such as spying and gaining information.

The other (danzos) plants an idea in the opponents mind. This also can't seen through, so yes it's possible to use it to win. However, one needs to make the "idea" so perfect that the enemy will fall into an inescapable trap. Where this is possible with any shinobi, Minato may still be one of the hardest, if not the hardest, to do this with.

So basically you would need to give him the idea, of attacking in a certain way, and you would need to then have a way to trap him. So this KA alone is far from enough to win a battle. And nothing else is known about Shisui, and surely a simple kunai or fire jutsu wont do.. This jutsu is better suited for combat though, if used on the team leader, you can make him think of a strategy that will favor your own team. Thus you can beat stronger opponents with it or give yourself an advantage at least. It also has shorter time between each use (though Shisui probably couldn't use it as much as Danzo could, ie. senju DNA).

Yeah. He probably doesn't even need FTG. Minato, even without it, has the fastest reaction times shown in the manga, plus his shunshin no jutsu is ridiculous. Look at what he did to that guy who was pretty far away with shunshin in Kakashi Gaiden
