If you can't decide then read this:

- Itachi Uchiha : Acadamy Grad. Age: 7, Chunin Prom. Age: 10, S-Rank Missing-Nin, Sharingan at age 8, possessed Mangekyou Sharingan, Anbu Captain at age 13, slaughtered his entire clan overnight, praised by all to be best in his generation; a genius above all others.

- Sasuke Uchiha : Acadamy Grad. Age: 12, hailed as a genius, Orochimaru noted that Sasuke is far stronger than he was at the same age, Tobi also stated Sasuke could become more powerful than Nagato, Mangekyou Sharingan, Second Uchiha to activate Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan

- Minato Namikaze : Fourth Hokage, Acadamy Grad. Age: 10, rare genius that appeared only once in a generation, Jirayia believed he might be the Child of the Prophecy (the Saviour of the World), According to Jirayia, Minato was one of the most gifted shinobi who ever lived, Fourth Raikage thought no one would be able to supasshim,

- Madara Uchiha : Sharingan, first amongst the Uchihas to activate his MS, EMS, Rinnegan, considered as the most gifted member (his brother Izuna as well) of the Uchiha clan in history, leader of the Uchiha clan, known as battle-oriented genius

- Jiraiya : Legendary Sannin, Toad Sage, AcadamyGrad. Age: 6, was initially chosen for the positionof Fifth Hokage, Kisame noted he was no match for Jiraiya saying he was "on a whole other level", Jiraiya is tied with Itachi Uchiha as havingthe highest stats total in databook

- Orochimaru : Legendary Sannin, Acadamy Grad. Age: 6, considered as prodigy; talent, knowledgeand determination were also considered, by his sensei Hiruzen Sarutobi, seen once in a generation, found battle with four-tailed Naruto highly entertaining

- Nagato : recognised leader of Akatsuki, recognised as the most powerful member of Akatsuki, Master of the Rinnegan, masterd all 5 basic nature transformations, Konan stated that he never lost a single battle, and that he is"unbeatable" (also Fukasaku) and even Tobi stated he was "invincible"

- Hiruzen Sarutobi : Third Hokage, revered as the God of Shinobi in his prime , one of the most powerful shinobi in history, he also said to be the strongest Hokage that Konoha ever had (want to be fair: this was stated in part 1), also called "the Professor", due to his vast knowledge of techniques, knowing all the techniques in Konoha

- Hashirama Senju : First Hokage, leader of the Senju clan, gained control of several tailed beasts, reputed to be the most powerful shinobi of his era, strongest shinobi in history stated by revived Uchiha Madara and Kabuto, his prowess was considered to be a mere fairy tale much likethe existence of the Sage of the Six Paths, greater medical-nin than Tsunade, who is considered to be the greatest in the world

You don't have to choose from this list if you don't want to.

Depends on how you define genius.

It's Shikamaru if you're talking about intelligence. Or it would be Nagato if you were talking about strength.

On the other hand, it would be Itachi if you were talking about skill.

Wow, you should really replace Nagato with Kakashi. Nagato is only a power-house, he was a pawn with no intelligence feats.

Genius:
-A person with exceptional ability, especially of a highly original kind
-A person considered as exerting great influence of a certain sort

Obviously to have the aforementioned characteristics, you must intelligent.

I choose Hashirama. Also, adding to the reasons why..he has Wood Release. A highly original and extremely powerful technique that nobody else has ever mastered or even developed. Zetsu, Danzo, Yamato and Madara (for healing and such) all have Hashirama DNA in them somehow and that's the only way they could manifest Wood Release.

Itachi by far no one could ever compare to this ninja's intellect.

I honestly think Minato and Itachi would be the ones, but I don't think you can compare them to Hashirama's power, seriously.

definitely Madara. He built a mastermind group to have him reincarnated even after death.
