Naw, Sasuke would just redirect it back at Minato's hairy balls, and would turn him into Naruto.
~ Since I think you are being serious here (I wasn't being serious), Kirin is going to be much faster than Minato every single time. There's no way Minato will be able to redirect it unless he starts the tech far in advance. Sasuke can also control the direction of the attack, so it's not like he has to send it straight at Minato.

Team Uchiha ftw.😐
How will they protect sasuke when they have to protect themselves? And minato can use space time barrier to warp kirin away or back at team uchiha.

Gunbai Shield, 25+ Susano'os, Yata Mirror, Amaterasu, Giant Trees, Hawk Summons, and so on and so forth.No, he can't; not unless he has the barrier tech prepped before Sasuke launches Kirin.
Hashirama has and can counter most of his abilites and even madara himself with his own new power is basically saying that hashi still has a chance to beat him. Hahsi beat him wehn he had the nine tails helping him I think he can still fight pretty good against current madara. Add tobirama and they can take him. Itachi with his chakra supply will have a hard time against tsunade nad hiruzen as tsunade won't go down easily and hiruzen had loads of jutsu. Sasuke then gets destroyed by minato.

Nah, Sasuke uses Kirin to one-shot everyone on Team Hokage except for Hashirama. While Hashirama is busy trying to look half as cool as Sasuke, Itachi stabs Hashirama with the Totsuka blade, and Madara proceeds to take a quick shit on him. gg Team Hokage.
Originally posted by cdtmKay, since everyone thinks I'm being serious >__>, and I only intend to troll Rikudo, I'll answer your question:
Itachi managed to protect himself from Kirin. You don't think some of the higher level Hokage's could manage?
Yes, Itachi protected himself with Yata Mirror and/or Susano'o.
I don't see what Hashirama could do to save himself from Kirin once Sasuke has sent it towards him.
Tobirama is a featless wonder.
Hiruzen and Tsunade would get vaporized.
Minato would have to teleport away from the area, or he could set up his space-time barrier a couple of seconds before Sasuke has directed Kirin. I highly doubt Minato is fast enough to set it up after Kirin has been fired.
In summary: Only Minato could manage, and that is by teleporting away with FTG, which so far, is the only technique that has demonstrated an activation speed on par with, if not better than, Susano'o's materialization speed. Minato on the other hand, is much slower than Kirin, therefore him porting away with FTG is dependent on him reacting in time to Kirin once it has been directed towards him by Sasuke.

Itachi had an anti-jutsu shield on his Susanoo and apparently lightning reaction time. Then again natural lightning in Naruto might be slower then real world lightning.
It is. Considerably so.
Though if you want to believe the databook, it is Lightspeed and therefore faster that real world lightning. As is Haku.

Well, it's not like Kirin doesn't take prep time. Unless of course there is a thunderstorm happening which would pretty much be spite. but anyways, it's not an immediate attack. There was the whole panel with the dragon forming, and then Sasuke directing it. That's plenty of time for Minato to hold out his kunai and form a seal like he did against the tailed beast ball. If Itachi can react to it, then I'm sure the fastest person in the manga can react to it.

That's the thing, we don't know if Itachi outright reacted to it, or only reacted because Sasuke explained the mechanics of the jutsu beforehand.
Still, if there is a Thunderstorm brewing, Minato probably won't take notice of it, as he'll have his hands full fighting the Uchiha.

I believe the panel showed him reacting once the lightning had been redirected. Regardless, from what we have seen of Kirin, it takes a dragon form before Sasuke redirects it, which should give someone like Minato enough time to port or throw a seal up, since it seems to take no time at all for him to slap seals on anything. He did it Bee and Tobi without either of them noticing. Hell, it's plausible that Hash could throw up an earth shield or something. They are the only to I see stopping it though. hiruzen is old, Tsunade is slow, and IDK about Tobirama.
