Goro Akechi is a genius and someone who really knows how to manipulate people. That being said, he’s not quite ready for Minato here. Minato was once the Hokage of the Leaf and has abilities that far exceed those of ordinary ninja. There aren’t many who can keep up with his speed and Goro is not one of them. Ultimately he would fall rather quickly in this matchup. There’s just no keeping up with this guy. Minato wins.
