If the MC from the future has already done the same thing as the MC from the past, then the MC from the future let himself be sealed on purpose so that the MC from the past can go to the future to do something that only two of him at the same time could do?
In the original work, Sarutobi manages to prevent the third box from being summoned, taking into account Minato's abilities, I think that perhaps Orochimaru wouldn't even have the chance to do the Edo Tensei technique, at the very least there would have been one more coffin prevented from being summoned.
Orochimaru may be a little crazy, but he's not stupid. I don't believe he would initiate this attack while sitting next to Sarutobi and Minato. Nothing he showed in the work could deal with Minato with the 3rd Hokage. At most escape, but there is no point in launching an attack on this scale just to escape. I think the story had to have invented a random reason to say that at that moment Minato cannot be present or with limited power.
