Lore & Background
Zero is an assassin working directly for the High Table's Adjudicator, an agent sent to punish John Wick and those who assist him. He leads a group of students, including Shinobi #1 (Cecep Arif Rahman) and Shinobi #2 (Yayan Ruhian), who accompany him in his attacks. Zero enforces the Adjudicator's will: when the Bowery King refuses to abdicate, Zero's students slaughter his men while Zero slashes him seven times with a wakizashi. He attacks John before he reaches the protection of the Continental, and later ambushes him again with his students after the High Table's enforcers are killed. Zero battles John but is eventually defeated and left to die.
