Team Minato

Team Minato was a team that was headed by the future Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. Kakashi Hatake, Obito Uchiha and Rin were the members of the team.

In the Kakashi Gaiden, which was set during the Third Shinobi World War, the team went to Kusagakure and destroyed the Kannabi Bridge to cut off supplies for Iwagakure ninja. Rin was captured by Iwagakure ninja, during the mission. Kakashi and Obito rescued her but Obito was crushed beneath a boulder loosened by a cave-in caused by the Iwagakure ninja Kakkō. Before they left, Obito gifted Kakashi his remaining Sharingan and tells them to flee, before the second cave-in supposedly killed him.

Some time later, Minato would sacrifice his own life to seal away the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, shortly after battling a masked man that had gained control of the Nine-Tails. This masked individual would later be revealed to be Obito, who had somehow survived the cave-in through unknown means. In time, Rin eventually died as well, though the circumstances surrounding her own demise is currently unknown.
