Monsterverse

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

Suko was a young member of Kong's species who lived in the Hollow Earth's "Subterranean Realm" under the vicious rule of the Skar King. While either being accompanied by, or fleeing three of Skar King's loyal subordinates, he encountered the gigantic, axe-weilding Kong in a misty cave. Kong was initially intimidated by Suko's tall, imposing shadow, but was relieved to see the young ape instead. He offered the child his hand, but Suko bit his finger and ran off. Kong pursued him until he ran into the three others Suko had come with. Initially, Suko tried to best Kong alongside them, but after being picked up and used as a weapon against his fellows and being flung across the clearing, he hid instead. When the battle was over, Kong quickly discovered Suko in his hiding place, and offered him one of the fallen apes' dagger, but Suko refused.

Kong continued to follow Suko all the way to a massive lake, where Suko seemed aware of a present threat as he indicated to Kong to drink the water and bathe himself. Kong's considerable disturbance in the water's surface summoned a eel-like monster, Suko attempts to flee only to tripped by Kong's axe, Kong catches up to the young ape with the decapitated head of the monster revealing he emerged victorious. Later, as Kong sat eating the eel creature, Suko indicated that he was hungry, but refused to eat near Kong. Kong tore a piece off of the section he was currently eating and threw it aside for Suko, who mimiced Kong's lounging pose as he ate.

Soon the two arrived at the Skar King's lair, where Suko tried to blend in as Kong tried to help the enslaved apes. This drew out the Skar King, who menaced Suko. An ape who had been relieved to see the boy again on his return stood between him and the King, and for this was pushed into a pool of magma. Suko cried out in horror, but tried to appear inconspicuous as Kong battled the Skar King, and his horrible ice beast Shimo. When Kong's hand was damagedby her ice breath, Suko indicated a tunnel in the rock as a means of escape, allowing Kong to flee to safety, although he was pursued by many of Skar King's lackeys. Kong lured them into one of his hunting traps, but the other apes were too smart to trigger its tripwire, leaving the injured Kong in peril. Suko, from atop the ravine, pushed the trao into motion, raining boulders down onto the menacing apes and killing all but one. Kong then led Suko to a hidden Iwi civilization where his human friend Jia was responding to a distress call. Kong was then outfitted with the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, and returned to the surface to summon his acquaintance Godzilla for help defeating Skar King and Shimo.

After Kong lost his axe traveling to the surface, Suko launched himself at it, dislodging it from the rock face as he was transported to the surface world. On leaving the portal, Suko used the axe to shatter Skar King's whiplash, thus costing him his control over Shimo.

When Skar King was defeated, Suko and Kong rode on Shimo's back down to the lair where the King had once reigned with Kong now as it’s new ruler.
