Minato was most likely a sensor typ(spoilers)

Or so it seems... Mangahelpers traduction of recent chapter came out and this is what is said:

kura: and naruto really had grown skilfully, as he is able to feel the chakra of several different ninjas and change mine in order to make it match with theirs…\\
kura: well… I can give my chakra to anyone by using naruto as an intermediary myself \\
kura: minato… this is the same as what you did when you gave and put your own chakra into naruto\\
Kurama says Naruto is able to feel chakra of several individuals and change his chakra to match theirs. He add that it's the same thing Minato did when he gave his chakra to Naruto. So most likely it means that Minato was a sensor typ

To be able to change your chakra to match with someone else individual state, you will most likely need to know the person's chakra typ anyway

Probably how he was able to detect the number of enemys in Kakashi Gaiden:

Alot of people discredited that though and went on to say that it's a simple technique.

who didn't know this?!?! He uses the same technique as the 2nd Hokage. What I can't understand, is how he wasn't able to sense Tobi 1)approaching the hidout and 2)not know that was his former student's chakra

When you say sensor type it makes me think of someone like Shino or Karin. But yes Minato did have sensing abilities

No reason to be so rude.
Thanks for the rep :)

Probably because Obito changed since last time they met? Remember he got Hashirama's DNA, and thus his chakra? And was probably even covered by Zetsu that night. With all that dramatical change, it's not possible to recognise him anymore. As for how he wasn't able to detect Obito, don't forget that when Obito uses Kamui, his body is in the other dimension, so it's not possible to detect him until he reappears

bare in mind that chakra tends to change as shown with sasuke ... also not to mention its possible that he had zetsu armor on

that's a possibly true! i just thought that even with all the modifications inserted into Tobi, being a senor type one should be able to sense his chakra regardless. Danzo had 1st DNA chakra and no one sensed this disconnection, it's weird. Even in the latest chapter, for Sasuke and others not to be senor types, they were able to distinguish Naruto's chakra itself in the midst of everything.

Where I thought Minato would have had the ability to sense something weird about his chakra, it multiple sources were included, especially being that close.

We don't know for sure if Zetsu was still being used, it's possibly though

Nope he wasn't.

What him and the second hokage can do isn't sensing but rather tracking. Which can be put in the same categroy as kiba's nose. Neji/Hinata's byakugan. Shino's bugs etc.

Another reason is that if he was a sensor he would've possibly noted the arrival of tobi (a new chakra).
He wouldve noted the disapperance of chakra (Death of anbu)
Heck he would've noted Tobi chakra and straight away state that he was obito from the chakra.

These are simple things that a true sensor has demontrated. Something that minato hasn't done.
Placing figure on the ground is a trait both him and tobirama share an s/t technique and it may very well be linked with hiraishin when he stated here. [ ]

Hiruzen sarutobi uses a technique which notes a person's chakra however he aswell wasn't a sensor

Maybe, but don't forget also that even for a sensor typ, you actually have to concentrate to detect some chakra. It's the case for , and even . If you don't put your concentration in your sensing abilities, it's more than likely that you won't detect anything

@Blaze this post respond yours as well

@Bogard. Minato played a guess game with obito to try and figure out his identity.
If he was a sensor surely trying to note his chakra would be better than playing a guess who is behind the mask. Surely sensoring would've worked better.

Again placing his hand is a tracking ability.
How you know this is a tracking ability?

Blindfold him and let onoki or any other ninja who has the ability to fly to hover right in front of him.
Placing his hands on the ground wouldn't track this. A true sensor whether the opponent is in the air underground and what not will be able to note their chakra and their location and even more

Like i've said, it wasn't possible to recognise Obito since he changed dramatically since the last time they met. So even if he tried(if he did) to check his chakra, it would have change nothing since the only chakra he would detect would be strange for him. It's like the whole ninja world thought Obito was Madara. Didn't they have sensor?

You are clutching at straws but also the manga has stated all those who are sensors and i cannot remember the manag stating minato was one, that is enough. Its true obito has changed however it could still be possible. Not that he noted the disappearance of chakra when obito killed the anbu, something that a sensor can do.

You claim obito has changed, however minato never once even tried to sense who is behind the mask but rather guess. Regardless of obito changing, if minato had atleast tried and failed then you could state this but when he never even tried but instead used a guess who it is strategy that spells it out loud

Its possible however the manga hasn't stated he is.
But also from his feats, he doesn't have this.

Nice thread though, but im done here
