[That hug catches Minato off-guard since he hasn't had the impression so far that Hyoubu's physically affectionate, but it does make sense in his head that he'd be worried, considering that he had assumed the worst of Minato's attempted summoning before this- that, and the clear worry in his outburst reminds him of a dear friend who could be quite frustrated with him for not taking care of himself.
Sorry... [He seems quite sheepish as he relaxes his grip on the branch and holds onto Hyoubu, trying not to look down while he grabs onto the other's arms. Now, Minato's intention was to just hold on lightly in a way that's definitely not like a hug.
Except gravity exists even high above the jungle and he's forgotten to account for the weight of his sword, and that gentle grab is definitely turning into something more like a cling when he inevitably slips while trying to hold on to his sword.
