Rairyu followed everything his leaders told him without ever making any real name for himself. He did prove to be a more then adequate body, if only because his was so massive. He also threw coconuts at Yokuryu with impressive accuracy. Truly a being who has found his proper niche. Oh wait... that was Doryu, guess Rairyu really has made no impression of himself.
