Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha are eventually able to release the Infinite Tsukuyomi, thus freeing the world and ending the war. The Chūnin Exams are interrupted by an invasion of Konoha and most of those watching the finals are rendered unconscious by a genjutsu. Although they succeed in bringing down the barrier, thus granting Team 7 entrance, each member of Team Guy is confronted by a duplicate of themselves as soon as the barrier is gone. When Naruto is sent to the Genjutsu World, he meets that world's Guy: he is a depressive, unenergetic, middle-aged shinobi who thinks of himself as an old man past his prime. In the anime, Guy is part of a force sent to Hachō Village to help the Team 7 in their fight with Kabuto Yakushi. It is fine to have a catchphrase, most of the characters in the Naruto universe have one. Unfortunately for Guy and his teammates, an elite team of jōnin from the Hidden Mist Village had their blades pointed at the young shinobi of the Hidden Leaf. NOTE: In the anime, the events of this arc occur after the Mitsuki's Disappearance Arc. This allows Guy to hit Madara with the Evening Elephant's fifth step directly. Another shark, meanwhile, is able to escape with Kisame's intel. He has the ability to summon tortoises, such as Ningame. The saying "Like father, like son" truly shines in this scenario, because both Duy and Guy opened all Eight Gates in order to protect someone precious to them. He is also a notable example of not letting machismo get in the way of real emotions. Guy pretends disgust by their relationship, but states he won't let it interfere with his duties as Kakashi's adviser.

After quickly incapacitating B and Aoba, Kisame attacks Guy and starts swimming to the ocean to send out the intel he's gathered. Team Guy gets medical attention for Hinata. With a single hand, he is able to casually plough his opponent deep into a rock wall, and with even more effort, launch the foe clear through it and a great distance away.

They rush back to the village and, upon arrival, find Hinata Hyūga badly injured from her fight with Pain. It ends up not being necessary as Naruto, by entering his own Tailed Beast Mode, deflects their attacks and subsequently frees them from Tobi. Towards the end of their trip, Kakashi comes looking for Guy. In episode 456 of the Naruto: Shippūden anime, it was stated that Duy took down four of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist before he died. [34] After losing usage of his right foot, Guy's style became a more stationary style balanced on his left leg and position himself so his natural weight works with him. When Tsunade is brought back to Konoha to become its new Hokage, Guy tracks her down just after she's finished healing Sasuke and Kakashi and begs her to look at Lee.
