Minato didn't even know A and B until that first fight they had, he also said that if they survived the war then he would be facing A together as Kage's showing that if he could kill A he WILL kill A, and B was no exception to that either. Your other examples are of people who knew and even had a incredible relationship with each other at one time or during the time of the fight, which these 3 most effin' definitely did not. Konoha only retreated at the first fight they ever had which was when Minato met A and B and used FTG to outwit A but ended up with a sword held to his guy by a 15 year old B, every other fight all we know is he couldn't kill A or B and that is why they lived past the 3rd Shinobi World War. IF Minato could KILL THEM, he WOULD have. Also Itachi is also not brash, nor as prone to emotion as A is and as shown as an EDO vs B he is faster than B with reaction time and speed, and even as Jinchuriki with sunglasses on and KNOWING Itachi has the Sharingan and uses Genjutsu he still got caught in Genjutsu and it took Gyuki to notice and help him out of it. So if B could react to hold a sword to Minato's gut then Itachi with his Sharingan Mastery, incredible quick thinking and incredible speed can too. Not to mention his unmatched hand seal speed, clone makingspeed and clone switching speed.
