Making use of his new powers, and along with that, showing off his incredibly cool persona throughout the fight, fans saw a brilliant clash erupt on Jeju, right after the other S-Rank Hunters faced a rather humiliating defeat at the hands of the Ant King.

- The Ant King Was In The Same League Of Strength
Jinwoo fighting against Baran had already prepared him for the massive threats that exist in the world of Solo Leveling. From the moment he stepped foot on Jeju Island, fans knew that he was going to be absolutely unstoppable, although the Ant King battle was believed by many to be a very high-risk one. That said, Jinwoo didn’t struggle too much in this battle at all. Be it a battle of strength or speed, Jinwoo came out on top and while already doing all this, he even managed to showcase his new weapons, the Demon King’s Daggers, which he obtained after defeating Baran.

As far as Jinwoo’s shadows go, fans know for a fact that he has some very strong ones. At the moment, he has access to Iron, Tusk, Kaisel, and of course, the ever beloved, Igris. Fans know the threat they pose to his enemies, and just like him, they keep growing stronger as well.
But, Jinwoo will most certainly add to his arsenal of shadows soon enough. In fact, the Ant King himself could be a good addition.

This is especially true now that Jinwoo has leveled up even further after defeating the Ant King. Given that the power difference isn’t much and the fact that Jinwoo has his attempts, fans should fully expect him to try and raise the Ant King as one of his shadows. Whether or not he will succeed remains to be seen.
