^^ Tobirama could be considered the most intelligent when it comes to analytic abilities. The same can be said for Shikaku and Shikamaru. Not only that, Shikaku and Shikamaru are also master strategists. What I don't understand is why some people are associating Itachi with only "wisdom". Itachi is not only extremely wise, but, like Tobirama, Shikamaru and Shikaku, he also has a very sharp abilities to analyse things. One of the best in the series, in fact. So obviously, Itachi being in the pantheon of Naruto brainiacs shouldn't be up for debate.
