The circle will not stop. if you look at it objectively, the cycle has been weakening significantly. In Kaguya's time everyone was constantly fighting. in Warring States the conflicts were between hired clans. In the Village era, it was between villages and few and far between.

The amount and frequency of hatred has been steadily reduced. People that had dreams to change the world would previously die as child soldiers, but under the villages had a chance to grow to an age where they could make them a reality. Under the Alliance, people can live a life and die of actual old age.

It is naive to think all war will be over for all time, but the amount of it has been significantly reduced. Hagoromo achieved a major goal by changing constant war to clan wars, hashirama turned Clan Wars into a few village wars. Naruto stopped the village wars with the alliance.

It feels like overkill, but a comparison to the real world is easily made. We still have to live about half a century, but we're already halfway to claiming a century free of major war.

War may never cease entirely, but madara's idea is like because death exists, life isn't worth living. Peace may not be eternal, but that's no excuse to not try and live in peace as long as we can. Madara's way is that Hagoromo tried, Hashirama tried and in the end they failed. Yes for him is that War may cease for some Generations but after Naruto's time like Hashirama's others could arise and cause it. What you speak of is for current generations and he speaks of is for all future generations. And before the 4th Ninja War the Villages didn't go well with each other and even after it some years in the future could again start a War. Naruto if you think about didn't stop a thing. If it was not for Madara's name and power which brought War they wouldn't have united and that union can be short-lived and not eternal. In the end, as for me I believe that in a way Naruto and its ending is very unrealistic and Naruto didn't answer Nagato's question too.
