Minato with his speed goes into close combat with Hashirama. He holds his own for a bit then retreats.

Hashirama opens his True Several Thousand Hands. He begins to attack the two, who dodge and weave with their Flying Thunder God and natural speed.

Hashirama backs them into a corner. He swings some of the arms down to kill them. In the moments before they die, Minato teleports to a marking he put on Hashirama during their close combat, teleports Hashirama with Tobirama in their instant revolving technique, then teleports out to a kunai he placed earlier during their battle. Hashirama is squished.

Hashirama, being a truck of life force, forces his way out from under his monstrous technique. He's beat up. As soon as he gets out, he's hit with a powerful Suiton technique from Tobirama. He's pushed up against a rock by the force of it. Before he can react, Minato teleports in and hits him with a big ball rasengan and sends him through the rock. Then Tobirama and Minato use a collaboration jutsu to hit him with a massive water torrent with the rasengan and some water jutsu (similar to what Naruto and Yamato did, but on a much bigger scale).

Minato and Tobirama teleport in. Minato stabs him in the chest and Tobirama shoots him with a water release technique.

Minato and Tobirama wins.

If Minato attacks Hashi could have made wood clones to confuse him (or backed off and made wood clones). I know he's a sensor type but wood clones confused The 5 kages and EMS Madara. Hashi could also just punch the ground when Minato is coming towards him then make the clones within the rubble/debris. Either way after that he can use Deep forest emergence on the entire battlefield and then Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees to put them to sleep. They could avoid it but how will they enter the battlefield again when they will be put to sleep if they do. If Tobirama tries to wash it away Hashi would just make his trees bigger.

The issue is if they can mark Hashi which I don't think would happen especially since its his brothers jutsu he would know how to counter it. This would nullify their combination attacks since Hashi would know what they would be trying to do. Sage mode is another big factor since it enhances everything. If either tries to mark him his reflexes would help him sprout wood where he's about to get marked then chop it off his body(Like how the Jubi cut off Amaterasu from its body when hit by Naruto & Sasuke).Tobirama wouldn't dare challenge Hashi, as foolish as he may seem he's still stronger. Minato is fast and smart but Hashi is too strong and has sage mode.
