He had Kyuubi's chakra-link to warp onward the battle-field. He reached the spot first due to his warp being quicker, hence Tobirama complimented him on that. Hashirama says "teleport us onto the battle-field" prior to arriving on spot referring to the warp. "Shunshin" could be used to refer onto FTG as Bee's subordinates exclaimed on how Minato was the "Yellow Flash" due to the "Shunshin" he utilizes.

Do you read anyone's counters? At all? Minato couldn't use a Kurama link to get to the battlefield. And I'll just copy and paste my argument as to why.

"Minato couldn't use Kurama connection to warp to Naruto because they're chakras hadn't gotten back in touch yet. This is shown as required when Naruto had to use his chakra arms to grab Minato so Minato could use FTG to get them away from Juubito. And again when Minato and Naruto had to physically touch fists so Minato could teleport the Shinobi alliance out of the barrier."

Also, you shot yourself in the foot with your "Yellow Flash being due to Shunshin" point. Shunshin is heightened physical speed. So you're saying he earned his nickname through actually being fast, not through teleportation.
