"After Monkey Prince finds the jingu bang staff, he realizes controlling it is a whole different problem! It has now stretched so large and long that it has become a nuisance to Atlantis, and so Aquaman goes to find who is responsible for this ginormous golden staff that destroyed so much of his city. The good news is, the Jingu bang can shrink back to normal size, but only the Monkey King is worthy enough to wield its magical properties-will the staff recognize Monkey Prince as good enough to do the same? Sea dragons, the trench, Atlanteans, and Blank Manta's army all clash...with Monkey Prince and Shifu Pigsy at the center of it all! Tchk tchk thck, pesky jingu bang staff!"--

Batman and Robin fight with Pigsy over…a part of Monkey Prince’s body that fell off and is rolling around moving on its own? And Pigsy better grab it quickly, before Monkey Prince transforms back into Marcus Sun, because there’s no way a regular teenager could survive that!
