Ninja Kong is a large burly Kong, member of the Evil Kings, and the third Kong boss fought in the game Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
Ninja Kong is the ruler of the Durian Kingdom, which is the twelfth kingdom Donkey Kong ventures through. Ninja Kong is one of the most physically powerful of all Donkey Kong's enemies, making the battle against him more difficult than usual. Nevertheless, Donkey Kong still manages to defeat him and goes on to battle the evil Cactus King.
Ninja Kong later appears at the game's ending ceremony where he, along with the other Evil Kings, honors Donkey Kong's victory over the Ghastly King.
Ninja Kong appears as a Spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
