'''Demon King [[Ganon|Ganondorf]]''' is the penultimate [[boss]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom|Tears of the Kingdom]]''.

When his health bar is depleted, Ganondorf will activate his [[Secret Stone]], transforming his clothes into a glowing red fiery texture, growing his now glowing red hair tremendously long, and restoring his health bar, extending it all the way to the edge of the screen, effectively doubling its max. This massive health bar contains 5000 HP, though there is a stopper halfway through (where normal healthbars stop), effectively creating 2 more phases with 2500 HP each. A pool of gloom now follows him almost everywhere he navigates in the arena, and he will spawn multiple [[Phantom Ganon (Tears of the Kingdom)|Phantom Ganons]] to attack Link at the same time. At this point, the other sages join Link in the battle, each fighting one of the Phantom Ganons while Link battles the real Ganondorf himself.

He then beckons Link to come at him, and during this effective third phase unleashes a new attack upon Link; a swarm of gloom wraths that upon making contact with Link ''permanently'' take away one of his hearts, though it will deal standard damage if Link is down to just 1 Heart Container (this damage would otherwise be fatal, but it can be withstood with 1-hit protection). When his health has been fully depleted, and nearing death, Ganondorf will instigate a Hail Mary attack and swallow his Secret Stone, effectively turning into what becomes the fourth phase of the boss battle, the deadly [[Demon Dragon]].
