History[]
ULTRAMAN[]
Anime[]
Black King is one of the opponents Jack fights in the alien city gambling den's wrestling matches. Jack states that some time ago, Ultraman killed Black King's friend, which is why Black King hates Shinjiro Hayata, after overhearing that he is the new Ultraman. Black King tries to choke him, but stops when Dan Moroboshi scares him off. An Alien Town
Jack and the SSSP later set up Black King to rampage in the city to force Shinjiro to develop his powers. Shinjiro has no choice but to transform and fight but is initially unable to keep up with the monster's brute strength. He is flung into the crowd and almost kills a little girl, but due to his desire to protect others, he awakened the power of flight and managed to avoid getting anyone killed. Not holding back anymore, he used his newfound power and decapitated Black King. Hidden Thoughts
Manga[]
There were two Black Kings introduced into the manga.
The first Black King
The first Black King debuted in chapter 91, where he was rampaging in California until Jack defeated it.
Rena vs Black King II
Later, a second different Black King reappeared in chapter 107, rampaging in Japan. This alien would be the first opponent confronted by the freshly in-actioned Ultrawoman, who was disoriented after learning her true origin and ran into the battlefield with a vigilante impulsion. She would deploy her barrier against the rapid punching monster, and just as she reached her limitation, the SSSP Ultraman's reinforcement arrived. He would be immobilized by Windom.
