Feature Details
Name Might Guy (Guy; 凯)
Alias(es) Blue Beast; Konoha's Vajra Beast; Fahai; Romance's Ghostly Bane
Gender Male
Affiliation Konohagakure; Team 9; Fire Temple; Martial Monk Hall; Hidden Spirit Village. Publicly designated a Konoha rogue ninja, but maintains close cooperation with its leadership. 6 103 418 437 572 573 614 626
Occupation/Role Shinobi, taijutsu specialist, medical ninja, Fire Temple monk, Head of the Martial Monk Hall, founder of Hidden Spirit Village, author of Young Guy
Status Active; Head of the Martial Monk Hall on temporary leave and founder of the developing Hidden Spirit Village. Although originally sentenced to ten years at the Fire Temple, Minato later lifted Guy's travel restriction so he could investigate threats beyond Konoha. International reports brand him a rebel ninja for the deaths of Hanzo, Kusagakure personnel, Suikazan Fuguki, and the Fourth Mizukage Yagura. His subsequent public designation as a rogue ninja was coordinated with Minato rather than representing a genuine break with Konoha. After purging Shisui's Kotoamatsukami from his mind, Guy completed his Yin Seal and continued expanding his independent power base. Most recently, he entered Orochimaru's underground laboratory with Honoka, Deidara, and Karin after securing permission to take Jugo. 418 477 512 552 553 572 573 614 626 697
First Appearance 1

Power Progression

Stage / Realm / Level Chapter Notes
Yijin Jing — Well-Rounded 1 Received through the Monk System’s starter gift and immediately raised to 350 proficiency using 350 Monk Points. Its circulation strengthens his body, stamina, and recovery; the initial investment did not yet bring it to mastery or perfection. 1
Vajra Leg — Perfection 15 Reached perfection while protecting Kurenai; later manifested the stronger Vajra Giant Leg. 15 17
Eight Inner Gates — First Three Gates 25 Opened the first three gates after three days of training under Might Duy; shattered a large boulder with Leaf Hurricane. 25
Yijin Jing — 999-Proficiency Bottleneck 39 Used the Team 9 bond reward to raise the technique to 999 proficiency, reaching the bottleneck below Mastery of Perfection. 39
Eight Inner Gates — Fourth Gate 45 Opened the Gate of Pain in battle, releasing a far greater shockwave and physical output. 45
Precept-Breaking Blade — Mastery of Perfection 53 Confirmed at 1,000 proficiency after the early battlefield fighting; Vajra Leg and Vajra Finger were also listed at Mastery of Perfection. 53
Golden Bell Shield — Perfected 105 Integrated the Golden Bell Shield with Hyuga Rotation principles and nunchaku technique, creating Golden Bell: Rotation Strike. 105
Mercy Blade — Mastery of Perfection 155 Confirmed at 1,000 proficiency after developing through Guy's efforts to protect and rescue others. 53 155
Shaolin Nunchucks — Mastery 156 Spent Monk Points to master Shaolin Nunchucks and gained the divine ability Tiger Roar Dragon Howl. 156
Eight Inner Gates — Fifth Gate Demonstrated 159 Used the Gate of Limit while protecting Kurenai, Shibi, and other Konoha shinobi. By his later rescue of Sakumo, his Fifth Gate vapor had begun showing traces of azure from his strengthened physique. 159 167
Eight Inner Gates — Sixth Gate 180–181 Unleashed the Gate of View against Minato, assuming the azure-vapor “Blue Beast” state with white eyes. 180 181
Yijin Jing — Breakthrough / Body of the Rising Sun 217 Used 1,000 Monk Points for a breakthrough, gaining automatic Yang-nature chakra cultivation, faster healing, and improved chakra quality. 217
Four-Sided Stake-Walking Art — Mastery 231 Mastered the movement art and gained Stake-Walking Afterimage Step after Chen’s mosquito-control training. 231
Konoha Dragon God — Mastered 234 Learned Chen’s A-rank taijutsu after seeing it once and nearly matched Chen’s own execution without opening the Gates. 234
Yin Seal system — Core Techniques Mastered 297–299 Completed basic Yin Seal condensation, then learned Strength of a Hundred Technique and Creation Rebirth under Tsunade. 297 299
Vajra Palm — Perfection 330 Reached the Perfection stage and received Flower-Twirling Finger as a new low-grade ultimate technique. 330
Sage Clan Talent — Dharma Avatar Formed 425 Condensed a dharma avatar through the Fire Temple’s Sage Clan Talent, reaching the first stage of the art. The avatar can shift between a compassionate golden bodhisattva form and a blood-red Slaughtering Wisdom King manifestation. 425
Lion’s Roar Technique — Breakthrough 430 Achieved a breakthrough in the Lion’s Roar Technique; he later passed the technique to Might Duy. 430 479
Great Compassion Thousand-Armed Form — Acquired 437 Received the mid-grade secret technique from a Secret Technique Gift Pack after becoming Head of the Martial Monk Hall. 437
Eight Inner Gates — Seventh Gate Fully Opened 457 Fully opened the Gate of Wonder for the first time while rushing to protect Duy and the orphanage from the Four-Tails. His blue steam became nearly flame-like, but the state remained time-limited and caused severe physical damage and subsequent exhaustion. 457 458
Marrow Cleansing Classic — Maxed Proficiency 479 Spent 600 Monk Points from belated hidden-mission rewards to maximize the superior cultivation technique’s proficiency, bringing it to its breakthrough bottleneck. 479
Heavenly Dragon Mark — Acquired 479 Obtained the Heavenly Dragon Mark from an Advanced Random Gift Pack; its specific effects had not yet been revealed. 479
Heavenly Dragon Mark — Dragon-Pattern Golden Seal Unlocked 534 Upon reaching halfway collection progress, unlocked the Dragon-Pattern Golden Seal, which imbues objects with Heavenly Dragon power to greatly enhance their toughness, sharpness, and demon-subduing properties. Applied to Kubikiribōchō, it increased the blade’s effectiveness by more than tenfold at negligible chakra cost. 534
Marrow Cleansing Classic — Mastery of Perfection / Initial Yin Body 552 Spent 1,000 Monk Points to break through the Marrow Cleansing Classic’s bottleneck. The breakthrough enormously expanded Guy’s spiritual perception, granted the Initial Yin Body, and enabled him to identify and tear away Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami influence. 552
Glazed Immaculate Body — Formed 553 The Initial Yin Body fused with the yang-based Body of the Rising Sun, replacing both with the Glazed Immaculate Body. The new physique instinctively absorbs natural energy, produces Senjutsu Chakra, and greatly increases Guy’s physical power, recovery, perception, and genjutsu resistance. 553
Indestructible Vajra Technique — Acquired 553 Obtained the high-grade ultimate defensive art from a Random Ultimate Skill Pack. It can ultimately cultivate a body resistant to weapons, elemental attacks, evil forces, and hardship, but requires Guy to maintain a virgin body. 553
Arhat Dragon-Subduing Hand — Awakened 572 The Dragon-Grasping Technique broke through its bottleneck, awakening a divine ability that exerts immense pulling force on targets similarly to Banshō Ten'in, without a fixed cooldown. 572
Shaolin Iron Head Technique — Acquired 572 Received the low-grade ultimate skill from a random martial-skill gift pack and began cultivating it during seclusion. 572
Strength of a Hundred Seal — Completed 573 After four years of accumulation, fully formed a purple-gold diamond seal on his forehead. His exceptional natural chakra recovery allows him to continuously store surplus chakra as a major additional reserve. 573
Seven Heavens Breathing — Second Activation Demonstrated 591 Combined the Second Activation with Lightning Release: Lightning Fang, temporarily raising his physical abilities close to his Sixth Gate level without opening the Eight Inner Gates. 591
Sage Mode — Demonstrated 662 Entered Sage Mode to rapidly charge the Fury Release Device with natural energy before demonstrating its enormous explosive power to Deidara. 662

Publicly designated Konoha rogue ninja 614 Later confirmed to have become a rogue ninja through a process coordinated with Minato and accepted without objection by Hiruzen. The designation is a diplomatic label rather than a genuine severance of his ties to Konoha. 614 626

Background

Guy’s consciousness awakened in the body of his six-year-old self after failing the Ninja Academy entrance assessment because of unqualified ninjutsu and genjutsu aptitude. He retained memories of his former life as Ah-Kai, a Shaolin monk, and inherited the Monk System, its cultivation points, the Yijin Jing, and access to Shaolin’s Seventy-Two Arts. 1

Might Duy refused to let his son’s failure define him. He trained Guy before dawn, secured him a special assessment from the Third, and taught him that taijutsu could be a path to protecting others. Guy entered the Academy by proving his taijutsu before Hatake Sakumo. 2 4 6

Duy later entrusted him with the Eight Inner Gates, stressing that the forbidden technique was a choice and a last resort rather than a power to pursue recklessly. Guy opened the first three gates within three days, determined to grow strong enough to prevent his father from sacrificing himself. 24 25

Guy’s intervention in major events has increasingly changed the course of the Shinobi World. He saved Sakumo, Obito, Rin, Minato, Kushina, and Duy from fates they would otherwise have faced, but these changes contributed to increasingly unpredictable consequences, including the Uchiha clan’s mass defection from Konoha. Guy accepts those consequences without regret, prioritizing the lives of those close to him over adherence to the future he once knew. 473

Following his independent journey, Guy began gathering people and resources around Spirit Mountain to establish Hidden Spirit Village. He positioned the settlement as a refuge for displaced people and refugees while tying advancement within it to belief in the Tathagata Great Dharma Master and worship of the Statue of All Beings. The village’s expanding population has generated faith energy that is gradually transforming the statue. 572 573

His apparent separation from Konoha did not end his responsibilities toward its people. He continued visiting the orphanage, protecting Kushina during childbirth, consulting Minato about foreign threats, and maintaining relationships with Tsunade and his former classmates. Minato had participated in arranging his rogue-ninja status, and informed observers recognized that Guy remained closely connected to Konoha despite the public label. 614 616 626 630 645

Appearance

Guy initially wore a faded green bodysuit matching his father’s and was recognizable for his thick eyebrows, large eyes, and intense toothy smile. 1

By age eleven, he stood 1.8 meters tall, wore a buzz cut and dark-green Martial Monk Set, and was often mistaken for someone far older than his age. 228

  • Thick eyebrows and a signature bright grin. 1
  • Green training attire in childhood; later adopted a martial monk outfit. 1 228
  • Azure chakra vapor and white eyes when opening the Sixth Gate, forming his Blue Beast appearance. 181
  • Wears the Fire Cloud Kasaya in major battles and during his Fire Temple period. 412
  • Underwent tonsure at the Fire Temple, with Abbot Huiyan personally shaving his head when he formally entered the Buddhist order. 421
  • Wore ordinary clothes while departing the Fire Temple incognito for his journey toward the Land of Grass. 479
  • Uses the name Fahai and wears a monk’s robe during dealings outside Konoha; he also concealed his identity beneath a conical hat while approaching Orochimaru’s territory. 497 516
  • Used a gray robe and sun hat while visiting Yugakure to collect royalties from Young Guy. 556
  • The completed Strength of a Hundred Seal appears as a purple-gold diamond-shaped mark on his forehead. 573
  • Later returned to Konoha wearing the face of a merchant from the Land of Rice Fields, although Duy immediately recognized him at the orphanage. 630

Personality

Guy is relentlessly disciplined. Even after failing his initial Academy assessment, he committed himself to extreme daily taijutsu practice rather than attempting to compensate with fields unsuited to him. 1 2

He is protective and willing to risk himself for others, from defending Kurenai against bullies to intervening against lethal threats to his classmates and allies. His training is motivated as much by protecting Duy and his companions as by personal strength. 3 17 29

Despite his hot-blooded manner, Guy is thoughtful in battle and in mentorship. He recognizes when an opponent or situation demands strategy, withholds dangerous techniques from Duy to reduce his father’s risks, and gives Ebisu and Genma practical advice before leaving Konoha. 86 201 420

Guy accepts leadership responsibilities readily. After rising within the Fire Temple, he entrusted Chiriku with the Martial Monk Hall’s affairs during his absence and personally sought to improve Iron Arm’s survivability by teaching it the Golden Bell Shield. 437 479

Guy has become increasingly pragmatic when confronted with threats to those he protects. After learning that an enemy had weaponized Obito’s Mangekyō Sharingan, he regretted his prior willingness to leave the eye intact and resolved to destroy it rather than let it remain in enemy hands if necessary. 474

Although he recognizes that his actions can trigger grave political consequences, Guy refuses to abandon endangered children or allies for safety or convenience. His decisions to protect Naruto, Haku, and Kimimaro reflect his willingness to shoulder personal and international consequences for people in his care. 472 498 512

Guy later discovered that Uchiha Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami had subtly amplified his violent impulses and weakened his restraint for an extended period. While he still accepts responsibility for his decisions, he recognized that the genjutsu had worsened his ruthlessness in incidents such as the killing of Yagura and the massacre of Hidden Grass shinobi. After destroying the influence, he regained clearer judgment and emotional balance. 552 553

As the founder of Hidden Spirit Village, Guy has shown considerable organizational pragmatism. He intends to offer refugees food, work, pay, advancement, and protection while using controlled displays of force and a shared religious structure to secure loyalty and stability. 572

Guy remains committed to Kurenai and to the celibacy required by his cultivation. He rejected Takizawa Sakurako’s romantic advances despite being visibly flustered, citing both his monk’s principles and the virgin-body condition of his defensive cultivation. 562 553

His concern for comrades predates his rise to prominence. As a child, he told Kakashi that Sakumo was a hero for saving his companions and promised to protect his own comrades even if others condemned him. He also initially chose to abandon a System quest against the Seven Ninja Swordsmen rather than endanger Ebisu and Genma; they independently persuaded him to fight after learning his assessment of their chances. 10 198

Guy is affectionate toward the orphanage children and accepts their attachment to him despite embarrassment over being called their father. He regularly brings food, candy, toys, and other supplies, while recognizing that their upbringing requires dependable adult role models. His later instructions concerning Naruto emphasized character as well as strength, ultimately asking Duy to raise Naruto as he had raised Guy. 282 395 616 643

Abilities & Skills

Monk System and Shaolin Cultivation

Guy possesses the Monk System, which awards Monk Points through bonds, accomplishments, and insight. He uses these points to obtain, improve, or force breakthroughs in Shaolin techniques. 1 155 217

  • Yijin Jing — Cultivates and reinforces his muscles, bones, meridians, chakra circulation, stamina, and recovery. 1 86
  • Body of the Rising Sun — Passive ability gained from the Yijin Jing breakthrough; automatically cultivates Yang-nature chakra and greatly accelerates healing. It was later subsumed into the Glazed Immaculate Body. 217 553
  • Marrow Cleansing Classic — A superior cultivation technique Guy initially began studying, later maximized with Monk Points, and eventually broke through to Mastery of Perfection. The breakthrough vastly enhanced his spiritual power and perception. 292 479 552
  • Initial Yin Body — Yin-based physique passively acquired from the Marrow Cleansing Classic breakthrough. It fused with the Body of the Rising Sun shortly afterward. 552 553
  • Glazed Immaculate Body — The higher physique created by the union of Guy’s yin and yang traits. It instinctively absorbs natural energy, produces Senjutsu Chakra, greatly raises his physical capabilities and sensory range, and grants potent resistance to genjutsu and mental interference. 553 568
  • Heavenly Dragon Mark — A reward from an Advanced Random Gift Pack. It later unlocked the Dragon-Pattern Golden Seal at halfway collection progress. 479 534
  • Dragon-Pattern Golden Seal — Imbues objects with Heavenly Dragon power, dramatically improving their sharpness, durability, and demon-subduing capacity. Guy used it on Kubikiribōchō, producing a golden dragon pattern around the blade and allowing it to split a huge boulder with a casual swing. 534
  • Indestructible Vajra Technique — High-grade Buddhist defensive cultivation art that can eventually make its practitioner resistant to weapons, elemental attacks, evil forces, and countless hardships. Its cultivation requires a virgin body. 553
  • Shaolin Iron Head Technique — Low-grade ultimate skill acquired during Guy’s Spirit Mountain seclusion. 572

The System initially describes five proficiency levels: First Glimpse at 0–99, Somewhat Accomplished at 100–299, Well-Rounded at 300–599, Mastered at 600–999, and Mastery of Perfection at 1,000. Reaching the maximum can unlock a corresponding special effect, although techniques such as Yijin Jing also present breakthrough bottlenecks. 1 39 217

Eight Inner Gates

Taught by Might Duy, the Eight Inner Gates remove the body’s natural restrictions to multiply Guy’s physical power, speed, and chakra output. 24 25

  • Guy can open through the Seventh Gate, Gate of Wonder. His Sixth Gate, Gate of View, produces his characteristic Blue Beast state. 180 181 457
  • The Fourth Gate enabled him to overwhelm Iwagakure jonin Iwami Shigezo; the Sixth Gate brought his physical strength beyond that of an ordinary jonin by more than twentyfold. 45 223
  • The technique severely damages the user’s body. The Sixth Gate causes intense internal strain and cannot be trained casually. 184
  • Guy initially judged that forcing open the Seventh Gate would risk bodily collapse. He later fully opened it for the first time during the Nine-Tails Attack while racing to protect Duy and the orphanage from the Four-Tails. The resulting power was enormous but time-limited, and his desperate exertion tore muscles and caused blood to vaporize within his blue steam. This was not an opening of the Gate of Death. 184 457 458
  • He can augment the Sixth Gate’s azure chakra vapor with Fire and Lightning Release to further enhance his mobility and striking power. 529
  • Combining the Fourth Gate with Lightning Fang raises his explosive speed to approximately Fifth Gate level while reducing the side effects compared with opening the Fifth Gate itself. 195

Shaolin Taijutsu

Guy’s combat style combines Shaolin techniques, Konoha taijutsu, chakra enhancement, and unusually refined physical control.

  • Vajra Leg — His foundational kicking art; evolved into Vajra Giant Leg and later Vajra Stomp Breaker. 15 17 292
  • Vajra: Ten Thousand Catty Kick — Combines Vajra Leg, the Fourth Gate, and the maximum weight setting of his right leg wrap to deliver an exceptionally heavy kick. He used it against Iwami Shigezo's hardened defenses. 45
  • Vajra Finger / Flower-Twirling Finger — Finger-based piercing techniques with extreme precision and penetration. 182 330
  • Vajra Palm — A palm-strike art that reached perfection and can decisively incapacitate powerful opponents. 105 110 330
  • Precept-Breaking Blade — A weaponized kicking and slashing technique. Its Ultimate Slash killed Iwami Shigezo, though the exertion shattered Guy’s broadsword. 46
  • Mercy Blade — A protective martial art that grew through Guy’s efforts to save allies. Its forms emphasize subduing enemies and rescuing others rather than killing, with proficiency increasing through successful acts of protection. 47 53 55
  • Kasaya Demon-Subduing Art — Mid-grade ultimate skill obtained after mastering Four-Sided Stake-Walking Art. Guy later used it through the Fire Cloud Kasaya to restrain Duy's Gate of Death aura and reduce the rate of life-force burning to roughly one-tenth. 231 461
  • Konoha Dragon God — A-rank rotating taijutsu copied from Chen after one demonstration. Its rotating core creates a difficult but exploitable opening during shifts in force. 234
  • Morning Peacock: Vajra Wild Dance — A wide-area, Sixth Gate technique that combines extreme-speed strikes with Vajra Finger force. After Chen’s training, Guy learned to concentrate its formerly dispersed power precisely enough to vaporize the Sea Monk’s core. 224 266
  • Lion’s Roar Technique — A Shaolin technique in which Guy achieved a breakthrough before later teaching it to Might Duy. Its high-frequency sound waves can exploit the weakness of Crystal Release. 430 479 516
  • Great Compassion Thousand-Armed Form — Mid-grade secret technique obtained from the Monk System after Guy’s promotion at the Fire Temple. 437
  • Great Luo Buddha Hand — Used to drive back Mei Terumi, Yagura, and Kisame while Guy attempted to save Ao. 502
  • Palm Strike Descending from Heaven — By opening the Sixth Gate, launching himself with Ninkame as a midair foothold, and transforming his body into a colossal golden palm, Guy crushed Manda’s head and neck in a single strike. 529
  • Dragon-Grasping Technique / Arhat Dragon-Subduing Hand — A pulling art capable of dragging opponents from concealment or drawing them directly into Guy’s reach. Its breakthrough form exerts a powerful attraction similar to Banshō Ten'in and can even seize targets protected by a complete Susanoo. 553 572
  • Thousand Years of Death — A humiliating close-range attack using two chakra-infused fingers, demonstrated during a spar with Obito. 172

Fire Temple Sage Arts

  • Sage Clan Talent — A Fire Temple cultivation art that Guy studied during his sentence. It enabled him to condense a dharma avatar despite his own admitted limitations in the art. 418 425
  • Dharma Avatar — Guy’s first-stage avatar normally appears as a golden, compassionate bodhisattva. Under killing intent, it can transform into a blood-red Slaughtering Wisdom King form with greater condensed force and destructive power. 425
  • Welcome Approach: Thousand-Armed Murder — Chiriku’s martial-monk technique was used to test Guy’s Golden Bell Shield; Guy has studied its Sage Clan Talent principles but has not been shown to have mastered the technique itself. 425 442

Defensive and Movement Arts

  • Golden Bell Shield — Defensive Shaolin art that manifests a tangible golden bell-like chakra barrier. 119
  • Golden Bell: Rotation Strike — Fusion of Golden Bell Shield, Hyuga Rotation principles, and nunchaku combat; functions as both a defensive spin and offensive strike. 105 110
  • Four-Sided Stake-Walking Art — Movement technique used for evasive footwork and rapid repositioning. 156
  • Stake-Walking Afterimage Step — Divine movement ability gained upon mastering the Stake-Walking Art. 231
  • Tiger Roar Dragon Howl — Nunchaku-derived divine ability; its Dragon Howl Staff stance can intercept projectiles and low-level ninjutsu around Guy and his allies. Its offensive manifestation produces a golden tiger phantom capable of blasting enemies away. 156
  • Fine force control — Chen's kitchen work, mosquito-skewering exercises, and instructional sparring taught Guy to regulate strength precisely and understand the mechanics of Konoha taijutsu. Guy later described his control after this training as microscopic in precision. 232 502
  • Physical durability — Later withstood one of Deidara's clay spiders exploding in his bare hand without injury. His durability is not absolute: he still needed to bend his arms to dissipate the force of Kitsuchi and Akatsuchi's Added-Weight Rock-enhanced punches. 662 678

Chakra and Ninjutsu

Guy compensates for his early lack of aptitude through his enhanced physique, Yang-nature chakra, and close-range chakra applications.

  • Multi-Size Technique / Super Multi-Size Technique — Enlarges parts or all of his body; he uses giant limbs to wield heavy weapons and deliver massive strikes. 203 217 242
  • Fire Run — B-rank chakra-enhancing ninjutsu that releases a controllable stream of fire along the ground, body, or weapon during a charge. 112 116
  • Lightning Fang: Rush — Lightning Release body-tempering technique exchanged with Kakashi. 190
  • Seven Heavens Breathing: Second Activation — A dual-enhancement state which, when used alongside Lightning Fang, pushes Guy’s physical output close to his Sixth Gate level. 591
  • Lightning Division — High-density Lightning Release technique with several combat applications. Guy used Lightning Division: Lightning Dragon to overwhelm Kakuzu’s Fire Release and later used Lightning Division: Shock Blast to destroy Rasa’s Gold Dust Coffin. 558 591
  • Blazing Lightning Precept-Breaking One Strike — Fuses Super Expansion, Fire Release, Lightning Release, Eight Gates power, and Kubikiribōchō into a single overwhelming slash. 412
  • Tactical anti-Kekkei Genkai knowledge — Guy recognized that Crystal Release is vulnerable to high-frequency sound and used Lion’s Roar to shatter Guren’s Crystal Dragon. 516
  • Natural Energy and Senjutsu Chakra — The Glazed Immaculate Body allows Guy to perceive and absorb natural energy instinctively, granting him Senjutsu Chakra with exceptional projected endurance. 553
  • Sage Mode — Demonstrated while charging the Fury Release Device, allowing Guy to rapidly supply it with natural energy before controlling and releasing its explosive power. 662
  • Advanced sensory perception — His Marrow Cleansing Classic breakthrough allows him to perceive activity throughout Spirit Mountain and detect concealed threats, including subterranean White Zetsu. 552 553

Medical Ninjutsu and Yin Seal

Guy trained under Tsunade after demonstrating advanced use of the Mystical Palm Technique and exceptional medical knowledge. 289

  • Mystical Palm Technique — Uses precise Yang-nature chakra to heal injuries. 289 298
  • Yin Seal — Stores chakra over a long period for later release; Guy selected it for its long-term potential rather than immediate power. 294 295 296
  • Strength of a Hundred Technique — Releases stored Yin Seal chakra throughout the body for additional reserves and physical enhancement. Guy fully completed the seal after four years of accumulation. 297 298 573
  • Creation Rebirth — Rapidly repairs injuries, but consumes lifespan and should not be used frivolously. Guy sought the Yin Seal system partly for its potential to repair the damage caused by higher levels of the Eight Inner Gates. 294 298 299
  • Monster Strength principles — Tsunade recognized that Guy had already grasped part of her strength-enhancement technique's essence through his use of the Akimichi Multi-Size Technique, although she refused his request for a formal lesson. 318
  • Emergency cardiac surgery and resuscitation — Saved Ao after a fatal-looking wound to the heart by opening his chest, stitching the tear, and applying controlled Lightning Release to restart the heartbeat before continuing treatment. 502
  • Tailed-beast chakra suppression — His presence kept the Six-Tails inside Kimimaro from running wild, and he later immediately subdued Sora when the boy's Nine-Tails chakra became uncontrollable. 512 616 626

Summoning

  • Katsuyu — Formed a contract with Katsuyu through Tsunade and mastered techniques including Immense Network Healing, Spatial Conversion, Visual Sharing, Remote Healing, and Acid Attack. Katsuyu later confirmed his identity as Tsunade's disciple before the reincarnated Hashirama and Tobirama. 316 318 518
  • Ninja Turtle Clan — Earned the clan’s recognition after catching Trust Turtle and became involved as its prospective patron and spokesperson. 302 303
  • Ninkame — A ninja turtle summon who assists Guy with mobility and utility; Guy used Ninkame’s shell as a midair foothold while executing his palm strike against Manda. Guy later assigned Ninkame to remain with the Yaksha Clan during the establishment of their Spirit Mountain camp. 529 552
  • Iron Arm — Panda summoning beast and trusted companion. Guy, Ebisu, and Genma initially secured its contract by promising to have protective armguards made for it. Guy later chose to teach it the Golden Bell Shield to strengthen its defenses after it was seriously injured in battle. 257 430 437

Equipment

  • Nunchaku — Dark-gold chained weapons used as Guy’s principal close-range weapon and the basis of Tiger Roar Dragon Howl. 89 156
  • Kubikiribōchō — Massive blade used for strength-control training, battle, and the Blazing Lightning Precept-Breaking One Strike. Guy later enhanced it with the Dragon-Pattern Golden Seal. 228 412 534
  • Samehada — The chakra-eating blade formerly wielded by Suikazan Fuguki. Guy seized and tamed it during his battle against Kirigakure’s forces, then carried it alongside Kubikiribōchō. 507 511
  • Fire Cloud Kasaya — Monk’s kasaya used in high-level combat. It also served as the medium for Guy's suppression of Duy's life-burning Gate of Death state. 231 412 461
  • Mind-Cleansing Wooden Fish — Meditation tool that improves Guy’s focus during Yin Seal practice. 297
  • Man's Heaviness — A pair of System-reward weighted leg wraps obtained after changing Sakumo's fate. Each can be adjusted from zero to 10,000 jin; Guy uses them for sustained training and can increase one leg's weight at the moment of a kick. 12 29 45
  • Lesser Restoration Pills and Curry Pills — Emergency recovery items used to sustain combat after severe injury and chakra expenditure. 204
  • Soul-Returning Pill — Rare reward from the Advanced Gift Pack earned after defeating the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Guy originally reserved it as a possible means of reviving Kushina, then considered using it to save Duy after the Gate of Death opened. He remained uncertain whether it could revive someone whose heart had been removed. 459 461
  • Shaolin Sobering Stone — Cherished item later broken during an incident involving Tsunade. 39 316
  • Bunpuku Teakettle — Sealing vessel in which Guy discovered Gaara imprisoned with Shukaku's residual chakra. Guy wrapped up the vessel and carried it away while taking Gaara out of Sunagakure. 589
  • Fury Release Device — Explosive device Guy demonstrated to Deidara outside Iwagakure. He rapidly charged it in Sage Mode, controlled its power, and threw it skyward before it detonated in an enormous blast. 662

Relationships

  • Might Duy — Father, first mentor, and the person Guy is most determined to protect. Duy taught him the Eight Inner Gates and Guy later taught Duy the Yijin Jing to improve his survivability. Guy subsequently taught Duy Vajra Finger, Vajra Leg, Lion’s Roar Technique, and Golden Bell Shield to further stabilize and strengthen him. Duy later became the Four-Tails jinchūriki, intensifying Guy’s determination to safeguard both him and the orphanage. During the Nine-Tails Attack, Guy opened the Seventh Gate to reach him and used the Fire Cloud Kasaya to suppress his Gate of Death state. Guy later examined Duy and explained that his persistently elevated body temperature prevented him from having further children. 24 86 396 457 459 461 472 479 617
  • Ebisu — Teammate in Team 9 and close friend. Guy supports Ebisu’s eventual goal of becoming a Ninja Academy teacher. 103 420 434
  • Shiranui Genma — Team 9 teammate and close friend. Guy encourages him to develop his connection to Minato and Flying Thunder God training. 103 179 420
