Minato must have placed his FTG marking on Obito when he was in his team.
So when Obito died, why did he not teleport back to him to give his body a proper burial?
If that happened, he would have instantly come to know that Obito was alive and was under the captivity of the real Madara. Madara's count down would have started right there as being weak, he could not fight Minato and the zetsus were literally fodders.

Plot stopped him from doing so.
As Obito, I wouldn't want to see the person who's failed to save both me and the girl I loved...

Minato only marked him while fighting him on the night of the Kyubi attack. The only reason he had Kakashi marked was because he had the kunai.

Because he's hulk and he can lift ten ton rocks :roll eyes:

Lmao, seriously man. Why didn't Kakashi return? Minato didn't even know the location because he was solo'n an entire war.

How could he teleport there when he had no arms?

Why couldn't Minato (the fastest man alive at that time) reach his students on time? U_U

There would be no anime. Maybe Naruto's growing up and that's it hahaha XD

OK, a more appropriate question would be why did Minato not place his FTG markings on his subordinates. Seriously, Madara should not even have chosen Obito as he was in Minato's team. The risk of getting discovered was too high.

The serious answer is kishi dont put it in plot or there will be no current manga

As a hiraishin user you dont just place marks on people, they have to give their consent. Putting your mark on someone is like subjecting them to your mercy forever (since the mark never disappears). Like how Minato doesn't didnt just mark everyone in konoha just because he's hokage, what if something goes wrong and someone tries to use him against the leaf? Again even in the fight against juubito, he didnt just put his mark on naruto and sasuke, or against madara when he had kakashi and lee keep his kunai instead of just placing marks on them (although he had no hands) but the point is that the marking of the hiraishin seems too figurative to be placed on anyone just because you want to protect them, except when using a combo like the swapping with tobirama, they are both dead and its kind of mutual so its seems okay.

Because he doesn't have sharingan, byakugan (which can see and sense what happens next), ninshuu, etc. shii to tell him what's happening.

Being fast and instant has its limits as well. But from movies, anime, etc. people having teleportation or great speed always gets the debuff when it comes to stuff like people dying, etc. Idk why, but they do.

I believe they call it plot no jutsu.

You don't just place marks on people, where's the privacy in that. Minato can just pop in on you anywhere. Only person he did it to was Kushina, which is fine cuz he's seen her naked and crap.
