What we are shown is their first battle. Making a larger Rasengan won't change anything. Minato has shown nothing to break through the Lightning Armor and the only reason they left that first battle was because Konoha had issued the retreat horn, A tried one last attack on Minato and Minato then tried to use B to let the others escape, but B held a sword up to Minato's stomach and Minato was shocked at that because of how fast B moved to put a sword at his stomach and he didn't realize it. He then said B was truly like a Shinobi Killer hence B becoming Killer B. Minato could not defeat A, but A couldn't beat Minato either. A is alive, and to say Minato didn't try to kill him is BS. He did try, and B stopped it. B didn't know Minato's Kunai was a normal Kunai just with a dif shape and Minato's FTG Mark on it, and wouldn't make it through the Lightning Armor while Minato himself though it could make it through the Lightning Armor which is why he attempted it. That was kill attempt 1 and it failed. Minato could never kill A and A could never kill Minato.

This isn't correct. Ay does not say Sasuke got through because Sasuke used a lightning technique. If anything, Lightning techniques would have a *harder* time breaking through Ay's cloak than other elements (besides earth), because it has to be significantly stronger than Ay's chakra. But according to Ay, the reason Chidori got through is because it uses the rare use of lightning chakra to amplify penetrative force, which he says is Kakashi's technique. Rasengan is directly shown to be better at this exact kind of scenario compared to Chidori in chapter 176, where Rasengan proves itself better at busting through objects.

Also, you're misrepresenting the Bee scene. Minato chose not to kill Bee (he didn't teleport and slice him up after all), and so Bee used that brief time gap to point his sword backwards. Leaving Bee alive was directly said to be because he could tell he was a special person. Also, again, Ay disagrees with your position here so i don't actually see what the debate is about.
