It's not plot, Minato is also an excellent sensor, the moment he felt A's chakra shift, he knew to avoid. This isn't stated in the specific manga chapter, but its impliedLMAO when did i ever say that a jutsu would destroy the world? :sy: but dont be a little bitch, we have Madara throwing ****ing multiple meteors at the 5kage right now so you can go and ****ing sit on that comment. The point that you are refusing to see, is that you cant run away from evverything, as much as im sure you wish you could. and when all is said and done Tobi would survive even something as catastrophic as that, at least for longer than minato would, YES if you are talking about a one strike attack minato would dodge it FASTER, but if it makes it easier to discuss, ill put it this way, this topic depends HEAVILY on what kind of attack you are talking about.
So combine Sensory, with the quickest reaction time of any ninja without a hax (sharingan), plus FTG and extremely high intellect; that pretty much proves he's the fastest and best dodger in the Narutoverse.
----------------------
ABOVE ARE THE ARGUEMENTS I WILL COMMENT ABOUT:
This thread reads: "best ninja in avoiding attacks?"
Everyone seems to keep focusing on one aspect of being able to "avoid attacks" instead of looking at them as a whole, which i will do now. The main people in the arguements are TOBI & 3rd HOKAGE. I assume that it takes the same amount of time for tobi to make himself "intangible" and for Minato to use FTG (atleast level 2), so I will igore these facts. I divide it up to:
Natural Speed / Natural Reflexes / Transportation Jutsus / Intelligence
Natural Speed: 3RD (Catching Baby Naruto in mid air w/o teleporting)
Natural Reflexes: 3RD (Being able to dodge "A" using lighning release)
Transportation Jutsus: 3RD (Teleported OUT OF Tobi's Teleportation)
* The FTG has ATLEAST 2 LEVELS... but what if there are more?!?Intelligence: 3RD (Was never hit by Tobi in their fight)
.... MINATO WINS. FLAWLESS VICTORY.
