Most intelligent combatant in Naruto

[NarutoWA]

Minato easily, and then Itachi, Shikamaru, Sasuke.

 

[Tobi98]

There are different types of intelligence

Biggest Genius (in intelligence):

• Itachi: Had the mentality of a leader when he was 7
• Oro and Kabuto: they are the ones who searched more for information
• Shikamaru and Shikaku: Their IQ is of the charts
• Tobirama: He invented tons of jutsus
• Minato: He can understand and perfect jutsus just by looking at them
• Kakashi and Hiruzen: All around smart

 

[Chie]

In no order: Tobirama, Minato, Itachi, and Kakashi

[Waindo]

Shikamaru, Kakashi, Itachi, Hiruzen, Tobirama, Minato, Madara

 

[Rinnesense]

Minato & Itachi

 

[YellowFang]

It's a fair tie between,
- Minato
- Itachi
- Kakashi

 

[blackstar9]

Itachi , minato , kakashi , all of the saninn . Shikamaru and his dad rarely engage in one on one battle . And use spur of moment intelligence. (shikamaru planned his trap for hidan way in advance . Shikaku is a top strategists but doesn't fight one on one .

 

[Fuzzy Panda]

Shikamaru, Itachi, Kakashi and Minato IMO.

 

[LadyInBlack]

Itachi, Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke, Minato and Tobirama.

[SuperChief]

No one does misdirection like Naruto does.

See his kunai trick with Zabuza, RasenShuriken hit on Kakuzu and the entire Pain fight for reference. There is no figuring the guy out. He is just unpredictable.

 

[Waindo]

Yeah Naruto is closing up on these guys but Naruto doesen't have to strategise and analyze as far as them couse he relies on his brute force...fck it his a beast.

 

[Naruto99Uzumaki]

itachi, madara , minato , tobirama , shikamaru , kakashi and shisui

 

[Penguin]

Intelligent combatant?

Tobirama
Kakashi
Minato/Itachi

 

[shelke]

Minato? The guy has like ... one feat against Obito. The same one that was deduced just as quickly by Sakura and Danzo's guards. Why is he even in the polls is beyond me. Sasuke, Itachi, Madara, and Kakashi. These people come up with on-the-spot strategies.

 

[UNDFTD]

Shikimaru, he takes his time with his actions.
