Might Guy played a role in the battle against the Akatsuki, most notably his frequent fights with the Akatsuki member Kisame Hoshigaki. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Guy sacrificed his life by unlocking all eight gates and nearly killed Madara Uchiha as a result. However, instead of dying, Guy’s life was saved at the last minute by Naruto Uzumaki. However, too much damage done to his leg ended Guy’s career as a shinobi. But despite being confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life, Might Guy continues to train as his flames of youth refused to die out.
