Tobirama was still stated to be the fastest ninja alive during his time. When Hiruzen was in his prime.

99% of genjutsu except Inifinite Tsukuyomi can be broken with chakra control.

Enma is only had as a staff. If he is separated from Hiruzen he will be forced to become a monkey and from that point Minato's summons can deal with him. The time it takes for Hiruzen to heave hand signs Minato will already about to take the kill shot. If Minato is trapped he will simply teleport out.

Kakashi was confident, that doesnt mean he actually stood a chance of hitting Minato with anything. Sasuke was confident he could take Itachi out with a Chidori in the chunin exams but when it came time to actually do it he failed. Miserably. Confidence=/=capable

EMS Sasuke was never said to be anywhere near Tobirama/Minato speed. So the comparison to Hiruzen is moot.

Hashirama and Tobirama got hit by Juubito as he passed between them while Hiruzen stood shocked and unresponsive on the otger side of Tobirama. Then Juubito merced Hiruzen while he was unable to respond. That entire scene was Hiruzen standing there, barely able to follow Juubito's movements. You really ought to reread that chapter because it played out nothing like you described.
