All of this and you fail tremendously. This is why you don't get involved in other people's arguments.
Kabuto stated that their gnejutsu was useless. Itachi knowing of Iz and it's ability, how ****ing hard was it to figure out to use that technique?
Please remove yourself, even dude knew better to mention something so stupid
Also, Garra used gold dust and his intelligence in knowing not only to slow Joki's boys movements but also from exploding. This is why the 2nd was about to state" how did to can up with such....plan but ended by calling him a Golden Child.
He was ablr to maneuver this while at the same time defending and attacking.
While adding gold dust in his own and converting this.into Joki Boy, while having to think of this cooling it down. This was a lot to think of, while guarding a field of shinobi. Also, his sand was USELESS, this is his offense and defense
And you compare Itachi knowing what technique to use and setting up images the entire fight, alongside Sasuke!!!!!??? Are you serious?? Please dismiss yourself
I'm not interested in running around talking nonsense with someone who obviously hates itachi. Gaara's plan was no more genious than naruto's plan against 3rd raikage. Is naruto smarter than gaara now? Because he analysed and made a logical deduction of the 3rd raikage where his entire village and own son couldn't.
Anyway, Kishimoto disagrees with you. You can say as much nonsense as you want, but that want silly feat of gaara you keep **** riding isn't the biggest feat of intelligence in the manga. The idiot, naruto, has shown the most intelligent feats and he's still an idiot. Stop touting screen time, it's obvious that itachi is smarter by the simple fact that he deduced what his opponent was going to do by simply analysing his personallity and deducing his intentions. You go to any of your own family members and try to figure out what they're going to do with all your knowledge on them, I'm betting you'll always be wrong. It's incredible genius to accomplish something like that, but hey, you probably think gaara is smarter than shikaku, kakashi, and shikamaru also seeing as they've never really had intelligence tasking feats in the manga.
Gaara - Third 5 2 3.5
4 2.5 3 5 4 29
Itachi - Third 5 4.5 5
5 3.5 5 2.5 5 35.5
even kishi disagrees with you.
Any reasonable, non-biased, logical person can see that itachi beats the majority of kage. Because he isn't a kage doesn't mean he can't beat a kage.
That's the dumbest logic ever, else Obito should have never defeated(control) yagura(4th mizukage), sasuke should have never defeated danzo(6th hokage), madara should have never defeated muu and onooki( 2nd and 3rd tsuchikage), sasori should have never beat 3rd kazekage, Deidara should have never defeated Gaara( 4th kazekage ), and orochimaru should have never defeated hiruzen and 4th kazekage. they weren't kage after all. For that mattter, by your logic, Deidara should be the smartest character in the series since he outsmarted gaara, huh? He came unprepared and was being countered the entire way but found a strategy to beat gaara. Stop wanking gaara. He wasn't anbu at 14, and didn't master his sharingan at 8 - a feat that even a 10 year old madara didn't accomplish and madara is the strongest uchiha.
I like how Itachi Beat 2 of these people who beat kage; Orochimaru, Deidara and by default can beat hiruzen, 4th kazekage and gaara. I also like how he is the second best genjutsu user in uchiha and can therefore reproduce that whole controlling yagura thing.
But, hey, I can't persuade people who obviously hate characters/.
