probably black zetus, and he would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for them meddling kids

IQ/Booksmart wise = Shikamaru, Shukaku and Kakashi.

Battle wise = Naruto,Minato,Itachi,sasuke,and many more. :sigar:

...Minato?

If there's Itachi then there has to be Minato.. vise versa I'd add Sasuke maybe 6th honestly .. depends on what he does in boruto manga
1. Orochimaru
2. Kabuto
3. Madara
4. Tobirama

The rest doesn't even come close.
There is no Itachi nor Minato .. Tobirama is smart, but he isn't just a flat out genius all because of a few created jutsu.. the third even created/mastered more and he's not even on your list.. doesn't make sense to me, but I like it still ;)

Itachi >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Shikaku >Tobirama> Minato > Shikamaru >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sasuke/Kakashi
Itachi is smart, granted, not smarter than Minato, Shikamaru is only half as smart as these guys.. part 1 yeah all props but no.
Hagoromo is the smartest
Leh, how many times did he fail to create peace between his sons through other people for centuries of planning and thinking? Not even top 15
I'd say it's a toss up between minato and itachi. Madras was pretty smart too imo to come up with a plan assuming he would lose
True, he even died believing his plan would work .. twice in fact, I should give him more credit, but I'd say that's more ballize than smart.
black zetsu
Eh, he basically is immortal so he had forever ago to plan that.. I'm sure Naruto could too with thousands of years of going over it lol

Naruto Uzumaki is not smart battle wise Michael, take this L
Thats why Naruto outsmarted/tricked almost all his opponents in battle and won. Naruto is low key a brilliant battle strategist and his unpredictability only adds to the fact. :sigar:

Black Zetsu


Followed by Shikaku? Is that Shikamaru's father's name?

I'd say Tobirama is among the smartest in the series to be honest, then comes the Nara Clan. Smart is a vague term. If your talking about battle strategy Shikimaru takes the cake. Pure Knowledge would be SO6P. Plot Control would be Itachi or Orochimaru.
