It's so annoying when you think about it. I mean if you know the characters in naruto it's a bit easier, lee and GUY sensei without chakra yea can be considered the fastest "naturally" but it didn't get lee anywhere vs Gaara. Or Kimmimaro. Although Lee is one of my favorite characters, without chakra and ninjutsu in the ninja world your pretty much screwed vs those who have. Unless that person works really hard, lee does have chakra, he is just unable to use Ninjutsu. Actually it got Lee far. Gaara has never been touched until Lee. His sand armor was very hard and the fact Lee was able to mortally crack it is impressive. Using eight gates is a technique and will ultimately make you faster by enhancing things like your speed. I'm not saying oh count out techniques that improve their speed but just as you say who's fastest speed wise not teleportation explain the reason. For example, the Raikage is one of the fastest ninja in Naruto using his body flicker in coordination with lightning release. I'm not trying to downplay them but they wouldn't be that fast without it. Its their technique so that technique of theirs made them fast.

that is the thing you are counting raikage's body flicker with the use of his lightning armor the fact is that is exactly what minato does. he uses flying thunder god to compliment his superior body flicker. it would not be as easy as simply teleporting from one spot to another. if he was not actually physically fast it would not matter if he could instantly appear behind someone like raikage because the moment raikage begins to move it would be over. yet thats not how it happened minato instantly out maneuvered raikage because of a combination of body flicker and flying thunder god
