When he appears, He embraces the opportunity to work with Blenie like when he did in the war years ago. He brings his team, The Boxing Trio, UpperKen, JabKen, and HookKen. He used them to promote fights and make money off of them and the residents. The three are ready to go out and fight.
Blenie shows them each of the rangers and tells Raizo to defeat them. Raizo bargains for a prize or money, but Blenie does not budge. But when he sees Blake, the Blue Ranger, he remembers when he battled his ancestor in the war. He hated him and is ready to take his anger out on Blake.
