Tears streamed down Guy's face, but he remained silent. Beside him, Genma and Ebisu stood with deep expressions of sorrow.
Kakashi, Rin, and Minato approached. Kakashi gently patted Guy's back, trying to offer a bit of comfort amidst the sadness.
"... Guy," Kakashi said softly.
Guy lifted his face, his tear-filled eyes gazing at Kakashi. His voice was barely audible as he said, "Kakashi... I... I hate war..."
Those words hung in the air, leaving everyone silent. Kakashi didn't know what to say. He simply looked at his friend with empathy, choosing to remain quiet.
Guy wiped his tears, but his voice trembled as he continued, "I hope... this war ends soon..."
Kakashi stayed silent, listening intently. He knew that sometimes, presence meant more than words.
Suddenly, Guy looked at Kakashi with eyes filled with determination, even as tears continued to flow. "Let's end this war, Kakashi."
Kakashi stared at Guy for a moment before nodding. With a firm yet emotional voice, Kakashi replied, "Yes, let's end this war."

The entire ninja world was now increasingly aware that the Village of Konoha was the strongest ninja village. When a mere Genin could stand against elite ninjas nearing the level of Kage, it was undeniable proof of their greatness.

Amidst this destruction, there was a place that thrived: Oni Restaurant.
Widely known as an information hub, Oni Restaurant became more than just a dining place. During the war, aside from the Black Market, people from various backgrounds began to utilize Oni Restaurant to buy information. From enemy strategy secrets to the movements of certain individuals, this place became an important location for anyone involved in the war.
Not only that, Kisatsutai—an organization managed by Aoki—also grew larger and stronger. With members consisting of trained female ninjas or Kunoichi, Kisatsutai was now known as a feared Bounty Hunter group.
Their skills in hunting targets, whether it be strong rebel ninjas or a significant evil figure, made them a nightmare in the world of war.
