Background
Early life
Minato joined Konoha's Academy with the dream of becoming Hokage and earning respect from the villagers. He and Kushina were in the same class, and Minato was captivated by her beautiful red hair. He showed incredible talent as a ninja, and Jiraiya became his mentor, teaching him special techniques. Jiraiya believed that Minato could be the chosen one to save the world. After becoming ninja, Kushina was kidnapped, and Minato was the only one to notice the red hair strands she left behind. He bravely rescued her alone and expressed his admiration for her hair and strength. This confession made Kushina, who once doubted Minato, fall in love with him.Konoha's Yellow Flash
Minato and Kushina became a couple after he rescued her, and their love helped Kushina control the Nine-Tails inside her. They got married, and Minato spent three years developing the Rasengan, a powerful technique. He dedicated his life to mastering it. Minato became the leader of his own ninja team, consisting of Rin, Obito, and Kakashi. He guided Kakashi through the pain of losing his father and emphasized the importance of teamwork. Minato gave his team a bell test to teach them this lesson. Although Kakashi initially used his teammates as a means to an end, they eventually passed by working together. Minato played a crucial role in the Third Shinobi World War, balancing his duties as a teacher and a soldier. He displayed his strength in battle and even convinced the Third Tsuchikage to accept a peace treaty. Tragically, he couldn't save Obito from his demise and later mourned Obito's loss with the rest of his team. Minato also encountered A from Kumogakure multiple times during the war, engaging in speedy fights. Despite their conflicts, Minato respected A and urged him to protect his brother, B, who was also a jinchūriki. Minato believed they would meet again as Kage in the future.Fourth Hokage
Minato was chosen as the Fourth Hokage for his impressive performance during the war, and he taught the Flying Thunder God Technique to the Hokage Guard Platoon. He also tried to help Kakashi overcome his sorrow after Obito and Rin's deaths. As Kushina was a jinchūriki, special precautions were taken during her childbirth to protect her and the weakened Nine-Tails seal. Minato and Kushina named their son Naruto, hoping he would be determined like the character from Jiraiya's book. However, their joy was interrupted when a masked man, Tobi, attacked and took Naruto hostage. Minato saved Naruto but couldn't prevent Tobi from taking Kushina. He protected the village from the Nine-Tails' attack, fought Tobi, and freed the Nine-Tails from his control. Minato sealed half of the Nine-Tails' chakra into himself and the other half into Naruto. With his final moments, he entrusted Naruto's care to Jiraiya, assured Kushina's love for Naruto, and asked the village to see Naruto as a hero. Minato's life ended when his soul was consumed by the Shinigami.Personality
Minato was a humble and composed man, often acting with purpose and not prying into others' personal matters unless necessary. He was perceptive and respected his opponents, using his feared reputation strategically. Despite the tragedy surrounding Obito's actions, Minato only felt sorry for him and blamed himself for not being able to save him and protect Konoha. He also carried a sense of responsibility for Naruto's challenging life as a jinchūriki orphan. Both Minato and Naruto share unyielding spirits, ambitious goals, and unwavering loyalty to their loved ones and Konoha. Minato had a tendency to come up with complicated names for techniques, but he maintained politeness by using appropriate honorifics when addressing others.Abilities
Minato was an incredibly powerful shinobi, unmatched by most in history, according to Jiraiya and A. His skills were so formidable that enemy shinobi were ordered to flee upon encountering him. In a remarkable display of strength, he single-handedly defeated a thousand Iwagakure shinobi during the war, leading to a peace treaty. When the Nine-Tails attacked Konoha, it was only through Minato's actions that Tobi and the fox were defeated, saving the village from destruction. Many years later, Anko believed that only Minato could have stopped Orochimaru during a critical time. Minato's fighting style focused on swiftly appearing and taking down enemies without relying on time-consuming techniques like hand seals.Ninjutsu
Minato learned how to summon toads from Jiraiya and gained the respect and cooperation of Gamabunta. He had expertise in barrier ninjutsu and was a skilled sensor, capable of detecting chakra from long distances. He could also sense individuals in close proximity by touching the ground. Minato excelled in using the advanced Shadow Clone Technique for various combat strategies, such as increasing his strength through multiple clones and employing deceptive tactics. Additionally, he was proficient in Fire, Wind, Lightning, Yin, and Yang Release, demonstrating mastery over different types of elemental transformations.Rasengan
Minato spent three years creating the Rasengan, a powerful technique that doesn't require hand seals and is self-sustaining. It gives him an advantage in battle and showcases his exceptional chakra control. Minato can form the Rasengan instantly with either hand and adjust its size, ranging from standard to a larger Big Ball Rasengan. When in Tailed Beast Mode, he can create an even larger Rasengan.Space–Time Ninjutsu
Minato was known as "Konoha's Yellow Flash" due to his mastery of the Flying Thunder God technique. The technique, created by the Second Hokage, was acknowledged by the Second Hokage himself as being superior in Minato's hands. With this technique, Minato could instantly teleport to any location marked with his special seal, whether it be an object, a place, or a person. He could also bring others along with him, but he had to provide the necessary chakra for their teleportation. Additionally, Minato had the ability to teleport incoming attacks away, offering him a defensive advantage. He was also skilled at teaching others Space-Time Ninjutsu, as demonstrated by his teaching of the Flying Thunder Formation Technique to the Hokage Guard Platoon.Shurikenjutsu
In combat, Minato used a special type of kunai called triple-prong kunai, which provided better offensive capabilities. He would throw these kunai at his opponents or use them as melee weapons, sometimes even holding them in his mouth. What made these kunai unique were the Flying Thunder God seals engraved on them, allowing Minato to teleport to the location of any kunai he threw. He carried a large number of kunai with him and would scatter them across a wide area, giving him more options for movement. While his kunai tactics didn't require precise aim, Minato had exceptional accuracy and could strategically time and position his throws to execute complex maneuvers.Fūinjutsu
Minato learned various sealing techniques from Jiraiya and Kushina. The most significant one was the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style, which he used to seal the Nine-Tails' Yang-half into Naruto. This allowed a small amount of the Nine-Tails' chakra to naturally mix with Naruto's own. To address the weakening of the seal over time, Minato created a key that could speed up or reverse the process. As an extra measure, he infused Kushina's and his own chakra into the seal, enabling them to assist Naruto with controlling the Nine-Tails' power and allowing them to connect with their son even after their death. Additionally, Minato was skilled in the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, although he knew it couldn't seal all of the Nine-Tails' chakra. He was also proficient in the Contract Seal, which allowed him to break an opponent's control over summoned creatures. Furthermore, he possessed the knowledge to transfer a tailed beast from one jinchūriki to another.
