I of course am referring to battlefield intelligence which I feel Madara has the most of. I primarily chose Sasuke because he's very perceptive in battle, and this was proven during his battle against Danzo Shimura, whom himself could also be considered a fairly intelligent character. This was also proven in his battle against Deidara, who was killed by the Uchiha single-handedly as well as severely weakening Itachi Uchiha in battle to the point where the latter's terminal illness killed him. The feat of killing an Akatsuki member one-on-one is something that few others have managed, such as Might Guy and Shikimaru against Kisame and Hidan respectively.
