History[]
Not much is known about the Ancient King’s origins such as his birth, but it’s safe to assume that he once ruled the Earth 300,000,000 years ago.
After the defeat of the Subterranean King and the Deep Sea King, the Ancient King awoken from his slumber and began to resume his plans to take over the land. The Hero Association, already prepared for his awakening, attack him with missiles to lure him into a large deserted area, where he is then confronted by Tatsumaki. He starts talking with her but is interrupted when Tatsumaki receives a call telling her to return. Annoyed, he stomps her but is surprised when she dodges the attack. He tells her that the only way she could defeat him is by dropping a meteor on him. He then starts charging a beam attack, but then a huge meteor dragged by Tatsumaki's psychic powers hits him, leaving only his fried bones behind.
