Chapter 1[edit]
Following the events of the last volume, King K. Rool was sealed inside a steel keg by the combined forces of Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Mario, and was thrown into the sea. However, Mario is still waiting for Funky Kong to repair his Jumbo Barrel and fly him back home. His homesickness even grows bigger seeing DK and Candy Kong flirting day after day. Cranky Kong tries to help Mario by offering various activities to do, but none of them interest Mario. Tired, Cranky passes him his puzzle magazine, which includes a picross section. Finally, Mario has found a passtime that calmed him down, and he is also incredibly good at him. Meanwhile, the keg bobs towards the Mushroom Kingdom, where Princess Peach has nearly forgotten about Mario because of the long time that has passed since she last saw him. Just then, the Toads bring the steel keg to the castle and Peach opens it, causing King K. Rool to be freed.
Back on Donkey Kong Island, Mario senses that something has happened to Peach. Just then a horrible music starts playing. Mario and the Kong family follow the noise until they reach a wall with a giant picross engraved on it. Mario quickly solves it, revealing the symbol of the Kremling Krew. The symbol disappears, allowing the group to enter inside the wall, where King K. Rool and his Kremling goons are waiting, welcoming the Kong to "their home". The ceilings above them open, revealing the area to a Kremling temple in ruins. K. Rool then explains how the Kremlings used to live on Donkey Kong Island as the rightful rulers, until they decided to be a pirate community and sail the sea, leaving the island to be dominated by the Kongs, and now he is there to claim it back. Cranky is willing to let the Kremlings co-habit with the Kongs, but K. Rool refuses: one of them must go: they will now fight to the death inside the temple ruins. Just then, Peach taps on K. Rool's shoulder, telling him that they should go to a violent battle, but a sporty match-up, without bitings nor illegal actions. K. Rool obliges to the request, as a way to repay her for freeing her, but asks her how did she and the Toads followed him: Peach explains that they did not close off the black drum that warped K. Rool to Donkey Kong Island.
Cranky accepts and makes the team: for the Kremling team the members are Klump, Kritter, Krusha, Manky Kong, and King K. Rool; while for Kong team the members Funky Kong, Candy Kong, Diddy Kong, Mario, and Donkey Kong. With Peach as the announcer and a Toad as the judge, the "P1 (Peach No.1) Martial Arts Tournament" begins. First off is Funky Kong vs. Klump. As they begin, Funky asks Klump if his name comes from CLAMP, as he cosplays as Hikaru Shidou from Magic Knight Rayearth. Disgusted, Klump responds that it derives from the tool while crushing him in a giant clamp. For using a sort of weapon, Klump is disqualified, and the Kong team gets the first point.
Funky's next opponent is a Kritter. This time, the reptile points out how Funky Kong must be a shy person, if he wears sunglasses and swimming trunks, despite his friends being pantless. In a switf action, Kritter pulls down Funky's trunks and leaves in embarassment (despite nobody being actually flustered by the situation, as Peach and Candy explain to one another that they are used to DK being butt-naked), thus losing the match. Kritter wins the round, and his next opponent is Candy. Candy has no fighting experience however, but Cranky tells her to rely on her sex appeal to win the battle, like it usually happens in such manga, but she is sent flying out of the arena by the unphazed Kritter. Expresso catches her, while the him and the Animal Friends arrive to support the Kongs.
Now Team Kong is down to its last three members (Diddy, Mario, and DK), while Team Kremling has four (Kritter, Krusha, Manky, and K. Rool), and is leading 2 - 1.
