Axem Black is first seen where he and the rest of the Axem Rangers steal the Star Piece from Mario at Barrel Volcano. They all attempt to escape on the Blade but their battleship was running late and Mario manages to hop on board before they can escape. Axem Black and the others have no choice but to enguage Mario in battle. Eventually, they were defeated and Axem Black was destroyed along with the rest of the Axem Rangers when their ship crashed into Barrel Volcano.
