Lol gai is above minato. Minato in KCM was easily countered by juubito(who is slower than madara let alone gai) let alone base minato
You make it sound like Edo KM Minato was even using full speed; it's obvious that all Edo Hokages were nerfed to make Naruto and Sasuke shine and there's even a chapter title calling them the main stars. If Naruto's KM full speed was compared to Minato's then Minato, who is faster than base Naruto's speed would be far faster. Shunshin speed and distance is determined by the amount of chakra you use; 8th gate Gai does not have more chakra than KM Minato, nowhere close to it, let alone BM. JJ Obito and JJ Madara can both move faster than Gai if they actually wanted to, they only need to use more chakra in their Shunshin which both of them know how to do but didn't for plot.
What Minato did in that situation was FTG and the real funny thing is that Guy was moving at hyper-sonic speeds and yet the kunai that Lee threw was so fast that everything was like frozen in time... LOL
FTG is instant, so no fault there.
OT:
Nice try spreading bad image of Minato group...
Minato's top most foot speed is on par with Naruto's BM, because it's heavily implied...
Naruto's KM full speed was compared to Minato's FTG, it's referred to as "like a flash" which is what FTG does for Minato as he teleport between his Kunais. In Kakashi Gaiden, Minato was preparing to take out a whole platoon himself and another Konoha ninja told a comrade not to blink. Minato's Shunshin is fast enough to react to A's fastest speed but SM is what would put his Shunshin above A's.
8 Gates Gai is much faster than Base Minato with his FTG. Minato can't bend space and time whereas Gai can. In terms of raw speed nothing comes close to 8 Gates Gai's speed.
Gai speed is nothing to KM Naruto, JJ Obito, JJ Madara, or Kaguya; Shunshin speed is determine by how much chakra you use and all those I mentioned have far more chakra. Gai and Lee do use Shunshin, they gain more speed after removing their chakra limiters. Gai gained more power than speed, Madara had only 1 eye and was tracking his speed but due to nerf Madara didn't really do anything to neg Gai as we all know he can do. BT and slash him with TSB, Susanoo, limbo, yin lightning, ST, Katon jutsus, summon a barrier like JJ Obito and set off TBBs inside...
Yes, Gai>BM Minato in speed.
No lol KM Naruto was compared to FTG speed and you think Minato who is faster than war arc Naruto in their base Shunshin, is going to be faster than KM Minato? Shunshin speed is determine by chakra; Edo Minato had his chakra absorbed by the god tree minutes before Madara became the JJ so of course he wouldn't be using high level Shunshin plus being an Edo makes him weaker than his normal stats.
That whole scene seemed unlikely though. Gai, who was distorting space itself, couldn't move faster than the kunai that was thrown at him. With the speeds he was going, he literally should've went face first into the TSB, unless he could react fast enough to dodge it.
Unless it was more power than speed, a Kunai shouldn't be intercepting him when thrown much later than Gai took off and he was going full speed since Edo Minato told him to keep going no matter what. Base Minato moves faster than Gai if that's the case since he moves faster than a Kunai. Anyways I believed SM Minato is faster than Gai in 8th gates due to Senjutsu powering up all jutsus, enhancing his base speed as it does physical strength, and gives him a larger reserve.
Lol stop making excuses. As if Minato being alive would've changed anything. :lol
And how is that feat praiseworthy? If it had been a full speed Gai it would've been praiseworthy.....but it wasn't.
Except that it would, Madara moved faster after he was revived than Edo Madara since Edo Hashirama mentions Madara having his old powers after Madara used Shunshin to knock Naruto and Sai down. Madara even told Edo Tobirama that he and Hashirama are no longer a match for him since they can't access their real power. Gai was going full speed, Edo Minato told him not to stop for anything and Gai was going in full force at Madara. SM Minato is faster than Gai from how I see it, if 7th gate is below A's speed then I don't see him being faster than SM Minato who base speed would increase to the same amount his physical strength does from Senjutsu plus Senjutsu makes all jutsus stronger which includes Shunshin plus he has a increase in reserve which allows him to use more chakra in Shunshin to further augment his speed. Also if he uses his sensory ability then it increases his reaction and attacking speed since he could sense how his opponents would react or do next.
Lee wasn't behind Gai so the Kunai didn't have to be faster or traveling the same distance or more in order to reach Gai...
Intercepting someone's attack doesn't mean you're faster than him/her.
That's like saying a person can throw a baseball to intercept a bullet after the bullet is shot seconds before. If Gai was that fast then nothing but a faster object should be intercepting him. If the object was already about to get into Gai's path long before he got there then that's when what you said applies but the Kunai was thrown from behind Gai (Lee was behind him to the side) and that makes no sense which is why I say Gai is more power than speed.
