If it were not for his young age, Namikaze Minato's chakra reserves would have been slightly higher, and coupled with a somewhat incomplete combat system, his offensive power was slightly lacking. After all, his efforts were primarily focused on the Flying Thunder God, while other aspects naturally lagged behind. Otherwise, his overall strength would have reached Kage level long ago.
Even when facing his teacher, Jiraiya, Namikaze Minato could maintain an undefeated stance at this point, which showed just how formidable the Flying Thunder God was in his hands.
It was precisely because of this that Uchiha Chi had the idea to go out and experience the wider world; he was purely stimulated. Otherwise, while he might have worked hard, whether he would have worked *this* hard was uncertain.
