—Yin-long, crushing Gokaimaru in his tendrils | ||
Yin-long is the lord of the Dragon Palace and the brother of Jin-long.
Appearance[]
Unlike his brother, who is visibly elderly and overweight, Yin-long's human form is that of a youthfully beautiful young man with a slim figure. He wears a mask over his mouth to cover up his true form, which is a massive octopus with a flaccid, uncut penis on it's face in place of a mouth.
Personality[]
He has a low opinion on humans and believes that they will betray each other for material desires, which was proven wrong when Gokaimaru pretended to be tempted so that he could attack him.
He is also highly sensitive over his true form and considers it hideous, and presumably spends most of his time in his human form instead.
He is afraid of fresh water, as he is incapable of surviving in it.
Powers and Abilities[]
In his true form, he can attack and crush his enemies with his tentacles.
History[]
Journey to the West Arc[]
He crossed paths with Sora & co. when his brother, Jin-long, asked him for his help obtaining the Ring of Carnal Denial, and he and his wife, Otohime, laid a trap for Sora & co. when Gokaimaru, and then later Sora, came to the Dragon Palace so that they could find a way past Lake Bohai.
He encountered Gokaimaru after the latter went out to kill him when the mermaid slaves rescued the Ozeki's life, and he attempted to trick Gokaimaru into betraying Sora by promising him to give him his youth back if he took the Ring of Carnal Denial from him, but Gokaimaru tricked him instead by pretending to be tempted so that he could headbutt him, and stated that there was nothing that Yin-long could do to make him turn his back on Sora, and fought valiantly against him, vowing to not give up even though he was reduced to a feeble old man due to his sense of pride as a Japanese man and his belief in the spirit of his home country.
Out of a twisted sense of respect for Gokaimaru, Yin-long then assumed his hideous true form, but not before Leila came out of nowhere to beg him to spare the rikishi, and in response to this, he put Leila in his crosshairs as well, stating his intent to kill her alongside Gokaimaru as he revealed his true self to them, only to be interrupted by Sora bursting out of nowhere, who, upon seeing the ridiculous appearance of Yin-long in his true form, made fun of him, enraging the demon so badly that he tossed Gokaimaru aside to kill him first.
However, he was then apprehended by Gokaimaru, who grabbed onto one of his tentacles with all his might and clung to a pillar, preventing him from moving, and the Ozeki then ordered Sora to break open the walls of Dragon Palace to let in the fresh water, which Yin-long foolishly admitted would kill him like a regular octopus.
Nian Zhen-yuan and Otohime then arrived on the scene due to hearing the commotion coming from the room Sora and Gokaimaru were fighting in, and the latter proceeded to try and help her husband by attacking Gokaimaru with a sword, which failed to deter him and only made him continue to restrain Yin-long until Sora finally broke open the walls of Dragon Palace, drowning him, Otohime, and Nian Zhen-yuan as Sora and Gokaimaru made their way out of the place.
However, this was not the end of Yin-long yet, as he proceeded to then possess Edajima Heihachi and fly all the way back to China, and arrived at Tianzhu before Sora & co. and slaughtered the pilgrims before trying to trick Sora by pretending not to be possessed, but this scheme of his was thwarted by Xuanzang, who saw through Yin-long's lie using the words that Edajima gave Sora; a modification of his signature catchphrase. "I am the Ex-Principal of Otokojuku, Edajima Heihachi!!."
