I think that Naruto is pretty smart on the battle field, what he did to kiba and neji...... shikamaru is smart too.,,,,,,,, but I would still have to say Naruto is the smartest, but he is the dumbests not on the battle field

I'd have to say Shikamaru. IQ>/=200.
Sure, Naruto showed some smarts when he fought Neji, but I think the issue there did involve Neji dropping his guard. Besides, Naruto would've won the fight anyways because of the kyubi. just my thought though.
Also that bomb Naruto dropped on Kiba was no strategy at all.

well i deffinitelly say shika no doubt about it.

if ur talking about his fart,......then thats not what I was talking about..... Im talking about when he turned into kiba then when kiba hit him he turned into akamaru then kiba hit akamaru thinking that he was naruto. episode 45 I think
yeh it was on that 45 and 44 two of my favorite episodes and yes i agree narutos actions were very well thought out. very well. i understand but i still say shika is a better strategist.
Well beings as they SAID shikamaru is the smartest, i'd have to go with him.
shikamaru, no one comes close to him. everyone know shikamaru is the master of thinking and laziness.
Shikamaru wins this, no contest.
Yeah, Naruto does have some clever tricks up his sleeve, but at what cost? Everytime he fights, he wins through a sudden comeback. Whereas, everything we've seen of Shikamaru, has him in control of the match. Add to the fact that he doesn't rely so much on the jutsu to win, but natural surroundings. That, my friends, is what it means to be a truly skilled ninja.
Shikamaru wins, Naruto is also good but...Shikamaru only depends on stragedy since he only has Shadow Imitation so he only focus on strategy. Garaa in strategy? LOL ! He only has absolute armor. Neji? I don't see any strategy. Sakura is just intelligent for no good since she doesn't train, and Sasuke I dunno, justl like Neji. Oh ya...HAPPY NEW YEARS! IM IN THE WEST COAST SO HAPPY NEW YEARS FOR EVERYONE!
Gaara all the way baby! I mean the dood has some Major failsafe move.
And thats not to move at all.
Gaara: Is that all?
Lee: Kohona Shadow Kick!
Gaara: Is that all?
Lee: Opening the gates!
Gaara: *Yawn* Dessert Coffin *Yawn*
Lee: AHHHHHHHH!
Amazing Strategy
Well in this case i have to say Shikamaru because he is the sartest when it comes to strategics. Naruto isn't smart, he's just persistant, he never gives up, and that is where his strength lies.
how can you say that after naruto release kakashi from zabuza's prison ?
(with the help of sasgay this time)
after he defeats neji using tunnel ?
and in a few eps ....
sure, he isn't the team-like guy....but .........

Bleh, hated that...Primary lotus shoulda smashed the crap out of Gaara. And another annoying thing, people go around saying Gaara kicked Lee`s ass 0-o....I think that would apply to the choji and dosu fight, the Lee vs Gaara was 90 percent of Lee kicking, punching and just throwing Gaara around the place...he couldnt even see Lee 0-o. *grumble* hate that desert coffin thing...

Who were you answering?
Thats not a strategy.. in fact he has nothing to do with it as we all know.
considering episode 64 was all about strategy... i think shikamaru wins...
Konohamaru
i think the best strategy up to this point was Zabuza's when he fought Kakashi the second time

just because he never gives up doesnt mean he doesnt use his head. Look how he tricked zabuza, kiba, and neji at the end of that battle. Just persistant...i think not
well... actually it is. Genma explained that the reason why Naruto didn't lose is because he believes in victory and therefor keeps thinking of the next step. It was because Neji already thought he had won, that could allow Naruto to suprise attack him. It comes down to 2 things actually.
1. Naruto knew that he can't defeat Neji's defense, and dug a tunnel to get in range.
2. Naruto's a stupid idiot that really doesn't know when he's beaten, because, like Genma said, he believes in himself and keeps thinking of a next step.
Also, Shika wins without a doubt. He already had the strategy in mind before he actually began fighting. Watch him looking at Naruto's hole right after he says "The clouds are nice".
