You are highly overrating Minato. He was never shown fighting anyone even considered strong besides the ones you listed, Ei, and B, and mind you Obito was able to touch him and almost warped him away into Kamui Dimension if he had stayed a nanosecond longer in the warp tunnel, he "tagged him"... he isn't the fastest and his best feats were only with Hiraishin, fella. Also, before any of you try it.. the only reason Minato left was because the Konoha Retreat War Horn was sounded, he definitely intended on killing/dealing with Ei(too fast physically for Minato) and B(had his sword against his stomach faster than he could react), he just couldn't in that time slot before the horn was used. @SwordSlayer99 yes with Hiraishin he is faster.. when will you all realize they include the Hiraishin in Minato's speed feats? they do the same with Tobirama. Has it ever occurred to you that Hiraishin is Minato's speed? 'he never went up against anyone but rock fodders' isn't an argument since he went up against A, B, and Obito and beat all three in the contest of speed. In the end, it doesn't matter if it was shunshin or hiraishin, Minato was faster. Manga flat out says and shows it. Stop making this argument since it makes you look bad and not objective.
