It is 「ピース」or "piisu" in Japanese
Though that is a loan word version, I dont yet know if there's a native equivalent
Edit:
This is the native version of the word: https://jpdb.io/vocabulary/1154070/%E5%AE%89%E6%B3%B0/%E3%81%82%E3%82%93%E3%81%9F%E3%81%84?lang=english#a
*disclaimer: I'm learning japanese so it's not my native language
I would have said 平和 (heiwa). As another learner, I've never seen 安泰, and ピース I see mostly used as a reference to the "peace sign" (the hand gesture).
Heiwa was the word I learned. I hadn't heard Antai until today, but it's pretty common for Japanese to have multiple pronuciations depending on local vs Chinese pronunciations.
