Nice to see kishimoto has'nt lost his touch. Madara and Hashirama seem to be creating another valley of the end right there on the battlefield lol. Those two have been discussed a lot, so i'll move on.
I was quite happy to see two of my favorites, minato and tobirama shine in the battlefield today. When i first read the chapter, i was a little confused as to what exactly happened there at the end, was there a new jutsu that they used in tandem perhaps? To clear up this confusion, let's examine the manga.
First up, Minato and Tobirama tag each other here:
'Yes, with this body it does'nt matter'.
Looks like they had a plan, but then:
Minato jumps in front of the rasentarasushuriken(yeah pretty long i know lol)
Here the Hiraishin Goshun Mawashi no jutsu is activated.
What just happened there??
Its simple: First, Tobirama marked Obito a few chapters back. Minato and tobirama then tag each other. When Naruto and Sasuke charged, Tobirama teleports to Obito.
Notice when Minato jumps in front of the attack, Tobirama places his
Technically it was'nt a completely new jutsu, just a variation of the original hirashin.
EDIT: Just realized an important point wasn't stated in the op. Tobirama touched Obito so that his chakra was connected to him. this enabled him to ftg himself and Obito to Minato's mark exactly the same way Minato explained his own teleportation works.
i.e they can both teleport people their chakra is connected to.

on Obito saying he was distracted. Tobirama uses his ftg to teleport himself and Obito to the mark on Minato's body, simultaneously Minato uses his hirashin to teleport to the mark on Tobirama. Since Hirashin is instant, they both are able to teleport to a mark that is no longer even there. Technically it was'nt a completely new jutsu, just a variation of the original hirashin.
