BM minato lol? Minato wouldn't need to go that far to beat SM kabuto,he's not itachi you know..>_> Speaking of which minato would have made that match look a lot easier than sasuke and itachi did. Things like inorgainc reanimation and white rage are counter by the fact that minato could sense kabuto if he tries to blind him(and remember sarutobi has proven that sensor types can still fight even when robbed of their sight) and avoid his movements and if kabuto uses inorganic manipulation minato could always simply just bodyflicker or FTG to the part of the cave not effected. Even techniques like tayuyas sound genjutsu aren't effective considering minato has proven to be able to use ftg while immobilized. Jirobo's earth style? LMFAO Okay..Orochimaru's hydra technique,avoided. Sakon and ukons technique. Not important. Kimmimaros bone field, agian avoided. Actually minato would have been fast enough to save sasuke and himself if he were in itachi's place,and not took a scratch. Easy. And come on guys lets not be stupid here made of water or not if a rasengan,spiraling chakra,comes in contact with kabutos body he will splatter all over the place,and obviously minato is the faster one of the two with the better reflexes. Considering all this,this is pretty much a cake walk for minato. Kabuto will be out sped, out thought,and out classed the entire match so theirs no need for minato to have a BM a SM or any type of mode to win. Edo tensei could be countered by the contract seal, that IS always a option when you realize that kabuto's contract over his edo's are simply in the form of a talisman,big whoop same thing. The contract seal will break that control since they ARE still nothing more than just summoning's,doesn't matter if their contract controlled, sharingan controlled,talisman controlled don't matter, the contract seal will break it, so when minato hits kabuto's body with it he will strip his control over his precious edo's once and for all. I'm done lol
