Background / History
Guy inherited the Eight Inner Gates from his father, Might Duy, who had once gone alone to rescue Guy and his teammates from the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist 153. As a jōnin, Guy leads Lee, Neji, and Tenten. His Steel Fist specialization differs from the Hyuga clan’s Gentle Fist, making him an unsuitable instructor for Hinata when her team assignment is considered 28 154.
Personality
Guy is exuberant, openly competitive with Kakashi, and fond of framing challenges in terms of “youth.” His confidence can look reckless: during an escort mission, he trusts Kakashi’s decision to split the teams without knowing the full plan, then attacks an ambush with a high-powered technique before learning the enemy’s abilities 154. He is deeply protective of Lee; the possibility of Lee encountering Orochimaru leaves him visibly distressed 139.
Abilities & Skills
Eight Inner Gates
- Opening the Sixth Gate allows Guy to launch Morning Peacock without placing too much strain on his body at his current strength 154 155.
- Opening the Seventh Gate produces blue vapor and poses a much greater cost: afterward, Guy is weak for an extended period 155.
Morning Peacock
- Guy’s rapid punches ignite the air through friction; the resulting flaming shockwaves sweep across a wide area 154 155.
- Against twenty-two Root ninja, the attack seriously injures nearly half the squad and wounds most of the rest. Its force is reduced when spread across a long-range area attack 154 155.
Relationships
- Kakashi Hatake — His lifelong rival and a fellow jōnin. Guy trusts Kakashi’s judgment on missions and challenges him to races and contests 154 155 158.
- Rock Lee — His student, whom Guy regards as precious as a son. Guy encourages Lee during his match with Gaara and concedes when Lee can no longer fight 76 77 139.
- Neji Hyuga and Tenten — His other students; both witness his full-power display against Root for the first time 154 155.
Story Role / Major Arcs
- Chunin Exam: Guy explains Lee’s reliance on taijutsu, encourages him against Gaara, and intervenes when the fight puts Lee in danger 76 77.
- Gaara escort mission: Guy leads one half of Kakashi’s split force. His immediate attack drives off a Root ambush, but opening the Seventh Gate leaves him exhausted until Hinata channels Nine-Tails chakra through him to restore his strength 147 154 155 156.
- Return from the escort: Guy challenges Kakashi to a race back to Konoha, setting both teams running after them 158.
- Later support mission: Guy’s team reaches Kakashi’s group after their battle. Guy carries the exhausted Kakashi back toward Konoha and turns the trip into another race with Lee 498.
