This is incredible.
The sheer beauty of the Heaven Realm distracts Minato from his goal. Then, the thought of Tobi taking Kushina and Jiraiya from a such wonderful place reminds Minato of what he must do. He looks around and Tobi is nowhere to be seen.
Looks like I've wasted crucial time talking to Tobirama. The last time Tobi retreated, he came back with Jiraiya-sensei and Kushina. My best bet would be that he's going to capture more shinobi as reinforcements. It seems all souls in this realm roams in this remarkable village.
The Fourth Hokage heads for the village. He enters the village and is concerned with what he sees. Billions of villagers walk the streets of the village. With such a vast amount of souls circuiting around, finding someone in specific is a difficult task.
Well, it's nice to see that so many people made it to the Heaven Realm instead of whatever awaits those with wicked hearts.
Minato searches for Tobi. The scene switches to Tobi's point of view. From the rooftops, Tobi seeks out legendary shinobi to aid him in his fight against the Hokages. Tobi finds the mass amount of villagers to be bothersome.
Tobi overlooks a crowded street. What a nuisance this is. Oh well, I have more than enough time. The Hokages have no choice but to wait in the Shinigami Realm while I run errands to advance in sealing their fates. Hmph, the convenience of space-time and realm-traveling.
Tobi jumps from rooftop to rooftop, searching the streets for shinobi capable of harming the Hokages' morale. Tobi spots Sakumo Hatake down below cheerfully walking with his wife.
The legendary White Fang of the Leaf should be of enough assistance. Also, I'm sure Yondaime will not want to bring harm to his soul, being that he is the father of Kakashi. Tobi leaps down from the building to capture Sakumo.
The scene switches back to Minato's point of view. From seventy-five feet away, Minato sees Tobi as he jumped down from the rooftop.
Minato analyzes the situation. I can't throw a kunai with all these villagers around. Seems like I must lose the element of surprise. He runs along the side of buildings and straight for Tobi. Tobi is still unaware of Minato's presence in this realm. Tobi lands ten feet behind Sakumo. He then walks right through the crowd, reaches Sakumo, and materializes to grab him. Minato is now twenty-five feet from Tobi and sees what exactly is going on.
So, he's trying to capture the White Fang. Not while I'm around.
As Tobi's hand is inches from Sakumo, Minato finally gets close enough to safely throw a kunai. He throws one and it cuts Tobi's hand off. A slimy white substance oozes from Tobi's arm. Tobi finally realizes that Minato followed him.
How is that possible?! I must retreat again. Tobi begins to teleport as Minato is just seconds from reaching him.
Sakumo is startled by the hostile occurrence in the middle of such a blissful setting. "Minato Namikaze? What is the meaning of this?"
"I'll explain later. I promise."
Before Tobi completely vanishes, Minato throws a FTG kunai at him. Tobi teleports to his new destination and is hit on the shoulder by the kunai. Minato teleports to the kunai and performs his Flying Raijin Level 2, but misses.
"Don't think you'll get me with that again."
Minato backs up and looks around. There is nothing but wasteland, fire, and lava. Angry and sad souls linger around hopelessly.
This must be the Hell Realm. "Tobi! Let's settle this once again, but for good this time. Just me and you." Minato challenges.
"Let's."
Tobi throws a black sphere a hundred and fifty feet above.
Minato is not fazed by it, but remains cautious, for he may hate Tobi, but does not underestimate him. I've seen this technique before, through Naruto's eyes. It was Pain who used it, though.
Giant segments of the wasteland rips from the ground and towards the black sphere, lava from nearby volcanoes even gets sucked in by the gravitational pull. A large section of rock rises from underneath Minato. He's pulled in towards the sphere of rock and lava, which is getting bigger and bigger by the second.
"Aaahhhhh!" Nearby souls are tugged by the massive ball and are destroyed by the incoming boulders and lava.
Minato takes a careful step backwards. This isn't good. Because it belongs to a realm of the afterlife, the land has the same properties as souls, which means I can be crushed.
Minato throws a FTG kunai at the ground in an attempt to teleport away from the carnage, but it is also pulled by Chibaku Tensei. Minato is involuntarily approaching the sphere, just sixty feet away and inclosing.
I'm running out of options. I wonder if this would work... The Fourth Hokage forms a Rasengan and starts to add his element affinity to it until it is a complete Wind Release: Rasenshuriken. He launches it at the center of the Chibaku Tensei. The enormous sphere is completely obliterated, then Minato jumps down and lands in a giant crater. Boulders and lava fall everywhere.
Minato seems to be satisfied with himself. Looks like all that training I've done in the Shinigami Realm to add my wind nature to Rasengan paid off.
Tobi stands there, disappointed. If only I killed him that night, 17 years ago...
It's safe engage him in taijutsu now, being that I cut off one of his hands. Minato tells himself in thought.
With a kunai in his left hand and his right hand made into a fist, Minato charges for Tobi. Minato attacks him, but all his assaults are rendered useless due to Tobi's "intangible" ability. Since Tobi only has one hand, he uses a kicking style of fighting. Minato's reflexes are too quick to be hit by someone who doesn't specialize in taijutsu. They keep fighting close-range, completely on par with each other. Then, Tobi decides to end the taijutsu battle and uses a powered-down version of Shinra Tensei. Surprised by the change, Minato gets hit by the repulsive technique and is knocked back fifteen feet away. He recovers from the blow and rises to his feet.
"I applaud you, not even the second fastest shinobi has been able to hit me. However, it ends here." Minato makes a clone, weaves a hand sign and holds a FTG kunai in between.
