i'm not a fanboy, so just read and consider.

Hypothetically speaking, minato should be able to fly by using only 2 kunai's.

1. he throws a kunai up in the air
2. he teleports to the 1st kunai which is up in the air and catches it
3. he throws the 2nd kunai while he's still suspended in the air
4. he teleports to that one

...and catches the 2nd, throws the 1st one again, and repeats again & again. if he does this on and on, wouldn't it be just like how regular ninjas jump from tree to tree? except he can jump into the air and throughout it?

how would this change matchups if minato actually thought of doing this? increased evasion? mobility vs. flying opponents?

idk if this is already a factor in vs. threads, just a thought.

thoughts?

I can picture Minato doing that to the song "I believe I can fly".

Perhaps. But the world may never know.

He'd be teleporting, not flying. There's a significant difference in the two abilities.
The Tsuchikages move continuously throughout the air whilst Minato moves though space/time.

He'd be able to fight aerial battles though, if that's the point your pressing.

i know, but if he's skilled and efficient enough in placement and timing of the kunais, he can negate that factor: that he's not really moving. this can be an advantage or disadvantage based on his predictability. he can take advantage of the tsuchikage's momentum, since he can CHANGE DIRECTION INSTANTLY and they move normally.

not to mention he can follow them wherever they go, so he can make their mobility and movement seem futile.

I edited my previous post. It wouldn't negate the underlying nature of the two abilities though.
Minato would regardless, be teleporting through space/time, it'd just be happening in the air.

I'm simply saying that Minato wouldn't be genuinely flying.

that actually sounds possible too bad he's dead now.
he'd be in the one of the only few ninjas who could fly.

I made a thread on this (^..^)

OT: Technically speaking: I don't think it's actually "flying". (Only the FTG kunai "fly") Minato teleports where the Kunai are in mid-air and then he throws the next FTG kunai and teleports.

*Sarcasm Detected!!!*

Hey, heres another thing that would be cool, technically nagato should be able to create a meteor the size of 100 suns, think about it, all he has to do is keep making meteors and stacking them next to each other?

The only problem with your idea is how much chakra and concentration FDG uses, so much so that it takes 3 of the hokages special gaurd just to be able to use it. For him to back to back like that in battle would be draining not to mention pointless.

I mean ya it would be cool to see him flying through the air as a joke, but you dont see Sasuke cooking burgers with amaterasu do you?

This is flying "making flight or passing through the air". Technically if he stays in the air, he is flying.

i edited mine too. i know he'd be doing the same thing as he does on the ground, but isn't it technically flying? and isn't instant change of positioning of your body mass, instant change of direction, more of an efficient form of movement than gliding and having to put effort into changing directions like tsuchikage's do?

Yes, i can, i've done it before.

P.S. I only need one kunai *throws in the air, does the air pose like "i" did above obito, then spin and launch it again and again and etc*
