āSnakeā¦ Why are we still hereā¦ Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg, and my armā¦ and even my fingersā¦ The body Iāve lostā¦ and the comrades Iāve lostā¦ It wonāt stop hurting, like theyāre all still thereā¦ You feel it too, donāt you? Iām the one who got caught up with Cipher, a group above nations, even the US, and I was the parasite below, feeding off Zeroās powerā¦ They came after you in Cyprus, then Afghanistan. Cipher justā¦ keeps growing, swallowing everything in its path, getting bigger and bigger. Who knows how big nowā¦ Bossā¦ Iām gonna make āem give back our pastā¦ Take back everything that weāve lost. And I wonāt restā¦ until we do. Our new Mother Base. I donāt know how long itāll take, but Iāll make it biggerā¦ better than beforeā¦ Boss...ā [The helicopter lands at Mother Base] āThings have changed, Boss. We pull in money, recruits, just to combat Cipher. Rubbing our noses in bloody battlefield dirt, all for revenge. The world calls for wetwork, and we answer. No greater good, no just cause. Cipher sent us to hellā¦ But weāre going even deeperā [Snake talks] āI knowā¦ Iām already a demon. Heavenās not my kind of place anyway.ā [Kaz resumes] āDogs of war, for nine whole years. That ends today. Now youāre not sleeping, and weāre not junkyard hounds... Weāre diamond dogs.ā
