Biography
History
Jinlong served Misael in the past as his pet dragon and guardian of the land.[1]. He was killed along with his master by a neighboring army. He was eventually reborn as a Number's Guardian.
Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL II
After scaling a mountain, Yuma Tsukumo and his friends approached a temple which rested upon its peak. Upon entering the courtyard, Yuma was enticed by the aroma of cooking food, but he was quickly stopped by Jinlong who assaulted him with his walking stick. He then noticed that Kite Tenjo was a Dragon Tamer and their dragons resonated with one another. Jinlong mentioned that Kite was similar to "someone" who lived inside the palace long ago. When Astral inquired if the person was named "Misael", Jinlong confirmed it and accepted Kite's challenge to see if the young man had what it took to earn the "Number". Jinlong began a Duel with Kite, with both sides putting their ace Dragons up as antes. Jinlong managed to get an early start, Xyz Summoning "Number 46: Ethereal Dragon - Draggluong" as well as protecting it with a combination of "Armed Divine Dragon - Protect Dragon" and "Dragon Shield". However, this was quickly overcome by Kite who used "Book of Moon" to get around his strategy. Jinlong quickly overcame his loss, Summoning "Soul-Eating Divine Dragon - Drain Dragon" with 8000 ATK, pushing Kite into a corner.[2] Kite was able to get himself out of the dilemma and was ultimately able to defeat Jinlong. Jinlong then acknowledged Kite as a Dragon master and told him the legend of the ruins and Misael's connection to it and him. As Jinlong awarded Kite the "Number", Misael suddenly appeared and attacks Jinlong, angrily denying his connection to him and his apparent past life as a human. Jinlong later appeared to Kite in his true form asking him to use his Duelling passion to save the former master he once knew.
