History: (Mortal Kombat X #13, 14, 15, 17, 18) - In a battle for Outworld Kotal Kahn and Goro clashed, and Kotal emerged victorious after ripping off Goro's arms. The mutilated Goro approached his father King Gorbak, and requested he kill him for falling in combat. Gorbak refused, telling his son the wounds Kotal inflicted on him hurt him as well, and he ordered a regiment of Shokan against Kotal and his forces, including the Oni Warlords, Kintaro and Sheeva. Gorbak led the charge, but Kotal was protected by his new ally Sonya Blade and her Special Forces. After hours of bloody warfare Kotal Kahn confronted King Gorbak, killing him by exploding his head. The Shokan retreated, but Kotal knew they'd be back.

(Mortal Kombat X #20, 21) - Kano agreed to ally himself with Kotal in exchange for becoming his arms dealer, and Kotal agreed. Kintaro, the Shokan and the Oni Warlords led another raid on Z'unkahrah, but were halted by Kotal and his new allies. Tremor unleashed an earthquake on the Shokan, and Kano hit them with an atomic weapon, decimating the forces. The Shokan refused to surrender, so Kotal ordered his forces to kill them all. Kintaro said he would not yield, but asked for an honorable death. Kotal spared him, telling him he never warred with the Shokan before Goro threw his lot with Mileena, and would welcome them as allies in war against her. Kintaro accepted, and both sides cheered.
