Naruto was able to come up with a plan for Obito's attack but Shikamaru said "Shit dad I am drawing a blank". Should Naruto be the new village military strategist?

Damn... I thought the first was an exception... sigh.... read earlier threads about this, please. And that is good advice as well before making new treads.

I don't think Naruto's can be called smarter than Shikamaru..yet, or ever. I mean, how was Shikamaru going to sum up a plan dealing with father-son chakra and all that. I think Shikamaru was just devoid of info, he never even spoke to Minato so he doesn't fully know FTG...just my opinion.

shikamaru didnt know about the residue chackra left behind by the cloak, so it cant be blamed on him

No, Naruto had more info in able to create the plan, and had the means to, Naruto is still pretty smart though, just not on that level.

its been established that Kurama and Naruto came up with the plan that involved info Shikamaru did not know about...

lol its funny cause some stupid sasugay fanboys used to say Naruto is dumb & now look at him making every plan even teaching minato about how to be men.
earning Tobiramas respect (which is ot easy to do)
giving orders to sasugay about what to do and sasugay doing what naruto wants hahahahaha epicness

You must be registered for see images


btw it wasn't entirely Naruto's idea, it says here that He and Kurama came up with it, so yeah he did have Kurama's help

I don't think he has surpassed him, but this chapter definitely show that the majority of people underestimate Naruto's intelligence.

No. Shikamaru simply didn't have enough info.

shikamaru is a great strategist he only can analyses and get solution from current data he knows. this strategy is only by kurma and naruto because they are only one who knows it

by the way naruto is not an idiot he manipulates his ideas to get good moves he is just one minded if more complicated talk comes he dont know even he didnt understand the trick when tobirama explains it

Nah. I think this chapter was more about Naruto's mental growth but he's no where near the strategist Shikamaru is, period.
