Of those, definitely Shikamaru. The 2nd place would be debatable, but I'd give it to either Neji or Shino.

Based on feats, Orochimaru. Created dimensions, found a way to eat souls, found a way to SPLIT his soul into thousands of pieces and still retain his conscious, perfected Edo-Tensei (something Tobirama couldn't do), was able to deduce the Uchiha tablet without having the Sharingan (high impressive).

@Bold, he did what?

Let's look at Shikamaru's feats

1. Outsmarted a strong sound gennin without even trying (as a genin)

2. Made a great crazy strategy against a strong sand gennin (as a genin)

3. Caught 9 out of 10 sound nijias that were a mix of Chūnin and up (as a genin)

4. Came up with a plan to beat an immortal.

5. Was one of the strategists during the war

6. Went on to replace his father as the Jōnin Commander

Out of those pictured, Shikamaru. He proves that in defeating Hidan, who was physically much stronger than him, had amazing ninjutsu, and a god to back him up. Shikamaru also proved himself during the 4th Great Ninja War when he commandeered them peeps.

Saw your edit. From the rookie twelve generation, definitly Shikamaru.

"text book smart".. manga disagrees.

She is indeed smart, but she turned all her smart into sasuke. As i said before, rip them apart and give sakura different gold than chasing a boy with almost no reason behind it. Then she will be very interesting character.
