A lowly street urchin raised in an orphanage by the original King, the boy that would one day take his mentor's title worked hard, following King I's advice to avoid becoming the violent thug he once had been. All the while, he observed King's training methods, doing his best to emulate him so that he could one day grow as strong as him. When he was 24 years old, the urchin discovered that his beloved mentor had been killed by the vile Ogre, and subsequently donned his mask, fighting in his place to care for the orphanage. Unfortunately, observation is no substitute for real training, and the new King struggled until he was approached by Armor King, who took him under his wing and forged him into someone worthy of following in the original King's footsteps and avenging his murder.
After the murder of Armor King in a bar fight, King enrolled in the 4th King of Iron Fist tournament to challenge his killer, Craig Marduk. King defeated Marduk, but ultimately spared him, feeling revenge would give him nothing. This led to the two forming an odd friendship, working together after Armor King apparently attacked Marduk. They discovered that this Armor King was in fact the brother of the original, who had come after him seeking revenge. A brutal fight between Armor King and Marduk left both men hospitalized and King, hoping to protect his loved ones in the midst of a war between the Mishima Zaibatsu and G-Corporation, entered the 7th King of Iron Fist tournament to pay for both the orphanage and their treatment. He convinced Marduk to forgive Armor King II, with the two settling their differences in a retirement match, while King himself battled Jack-7, a fearsome next-gen robot that could analyze any fighter's style, and defeated them by using a combination of Marduk and Armor King's style in place of his own.
As the war between the Zaibatsu and G-Corporation created more and more orphans, King once again entered the King of Iron Fist tournament, ultimately winning the Latin American block before the entire tournament is suspended following an attack by the United Nations. With the fate of the world on the line, King would work alongside Lars Alexandersson in a final defense against Yakushima from the G-Corporation, and subsequently enlist many of his allies in charity work in the aftermath of the battle.
