Wasn't that a foregone conclusion though? We've seen what the Strongest Generation could do with those swords, and they got beaten by Kakashi's division. And Kakashi was the most famous/strongest ninja in that division. They were never seriously gonna win that war, even if Naruto and Sasuke died under mysterious circumstances.

Rather, it's fairly clear that these people didn't care about war or goals, they clearly just wanted to rampage.

You're comparing resurrected versions of them fighting a shinobi like Kakashi to a 2 academy students fighting an adult with a legendary sword.
