Macaque (short for Six-Eared Macaque) is one of the many demons that the Monkey King once fought.
Five-hundred years after the Demon Bull King's imprisonment, Macaque met Monkey King's successor, MK, who wanted Macaque to train him so he could get better. Macaque accepted and slowly corrupted MK as he trained him until he stole his powers, getting the same abilities as Monkey King's. Eventually, he engaged in a battle with Monkey King and was later defeated by MK.

As time passed, Macaque posed as a puppeteer to kidnap MK's friends while telling his story about him and Monkey King to MK, who relates heavily. After learning about MK's insecurities, Macaque toys with MK by having the shadow versions of his friends fight him until he changed his mind, and later warned MK about something he'll deal with in the future. Before Macaque could do anything else, he was encountered by the Mayor.
