My post was more of a joke refering to his thread.

Where he says Sasori > Whole NV and that without a brain.
Yes different type of intelligence. If i actually mean it serious then i would lean with Itachi, when it comes to battle smart, analyzing and being a genius. That doesn't mean i'm saying Sasori is not smart or whatever. He obviously is. As you stated when it comes to puppets and to stay alive as one with only a heart.
But we are talking about NV and war/fighting is the biggest thing in it, so being smart and fast at analyzing in that case is very important. Sasori did underestimate them rteu, but idk how you feel about it but as a smart guy like him he should have realized fast enough he will be beaten, if he keeps playing around. Well we could debate Kishi/plot bla bla, but i guess you get what i mean.
