Forest King

The Forest King (, Shinrin-ō) was a Dragon-level Mysterious Being who ruled over the Forest Tribe and wanted to return the lost greenery to Earth at the cost of the humans inhabiting it. He was killed by Genos.

Appearance
The Forest King was a large and monstrous-looking tree creature, standing several stories high and had what appeared to be another face in his abdomen and several thick branches covering his body that acted as his limbs. His own face sported five pitch-black eyes and a mouth full of hole-like openings.

Personality
The Forest King saw humans as nothing more than mere fertilizer that his kind needed in order to carry on his scheme of returning the lost greenery to Earth.

Neo Heroes Introduction Arc
After multiple heroes of the Hero Association fought and harmed his followers, the Forest King himself confronts the heroes, and easily defeats and captures them. As he is about to feed them as fertilizer to his kind, Genos shows up, and annihilates his entire army before proceeding to defeat the Forest King himself.

Abilities and Powers
As a Dragon-level threat, Forest King was very powerful. He could single-handedly defeat many professional heroes of the Hero Association with little to no effort, including the S-Class hero Tanktop Master, with the heroes being impotent against him. However, Genos, with his new upgrades following the Monster Association incident, was capable of eradicating Forest King.

Physical Abilities
Immense Strength: The Forest King can use branches from his tree-like body to easily crush anything in his grasp with great force. He is even capable of restraining Tanktop Master, an S-Class hero who possesses great physical strength, with only one of his numerous branches.

Immense Durability: The Forest King possesses immense toughness, being durable enough to withstand a powerful tackle from Tanktop Master, an S-Class hero with great physical strength, without apparent damage.

Fighting Style
Plant Manipulation: The Forest King can manipulate branches of his gigantic tree-like body to restrain and crush enemies.
