Nagato should take this with relative ease. FTG won't work that well against Nagato as he's an expert sensor. Anytime Minato tries a surprise attack on Nagato, his chakra signature will give away his position. Also, Nagato's summons would give him enormous fields of vision. As for Minato's Kurama Mode, Nagato can simply absorb Kurama's chakra. We all saw what Nagato did to Bee and Naruto without his mobility, notwithstanding the fact that he was also a mindless puppet at the same time. So Minato's Kurama Mode won't be much of a help.

You must have forgotten the fact that an emaciated and crippled Nagato, with far less vitality and chakra pool, managed to slaughter a whole bunch of Konoha shinobi (including Kakashi); caused widespread destruction comparable to devastating natural disasters; then leaped high up into the air and leveled the entire Hidden Leaf Village by Shinra Tensei; then fought Naruto and his toad summons and still managed to defeat him, forcing the Kyuubi to go on a rampage. Even after all that, he still had enough chakra to perform Chibaku Tensei on Naruto, which was only stopped by Kyuubi in 8-tails mode. Naruto would have lost had it not been for Minato's interference. Even after all that, his Deva Path still managed to fight Naruto until finally being defeated. And what's more? After Naruto's shitty Talk no Jutsu, Nagato still had enough chakra to revive everyone he killed in Konoha using Rinne Tensei.

Let me repeat it again. That was an emaciated, crippled Nagato with far less vitality and chakra, who was using lifeless corpses as puppets from considerable distance. And you seriously think a fully mobile Nagato in his prime can't repel a Bijuu Dama with Shinra Tensei, when he easily reduced Konoha into a crater using a lifeless puppet? That's unbelievable.
