He soon realized he chose wrong when they trained him and the other four against their will to be gladiators . They were pushed and pushed and the Xonti Brothers started picking them off . The Talz fell first to a sarlacc . Then the Gamorrean was killed by a large monster . The Herglic fell after to a swarm of robotic insects . This left Black Krrsanton and the Dowutin . The Xonti Brothers altered the wookiee ' s knuckles by filling them with metal to make them better when punching . Black Krrsantan tested it on the Dowutin and knocked it unconscious in one punch . He was then auctioned to the highest bidder . Sometime later , he became a bounty hunter for the crime lord Jabba the Hutt who resided on the desert planet Tatooine .

She told the assembled bounty hunters about her plans for a heist : the Empire had just broken the criminal element known as the Son - tuul Pride , which dominated Son - tuul ' s underworld . The fortune they had hoarded was in transit to the Imperial vaults . Aphra told the bounty hunters that she had inside information which would allow them to locate the transport , circumvent the guards and get away , and that she was offering them a part in exchange for their services . Krrsantan then piloted his ship during Aphra ' s robbery near Anthan Prime . There , Krrsantan was able to use a asteroid to penetrate the " Arquitens " - class light cruiser ' s hull . He and the others gathered what remained of the credit s aboard the cruiser . He and Aphra used the ship to collect the credits floating in space . He went with Aphra to Anthan 13 where they met with Lord Vader for information on the people who cut him up . Krrsantan then went to Vrogas Vas , where he attacked the " Millennium Falcon " . He then went to confront Han Solo and Skywalker . However , then got into a fight with Chewbacca . During the fight , Krrsantan tossed Chewbacca at Solo . He was then shot with a needle by R2 - D2 and knocked down by Chewbacca . However , Krrsantan was able to knock Chewbacca out with brass knuckles . He then confronted Solo . After defeating Chewbacca , Krrsantan then grabbed Solo . However , C - 3PO told him to stop his fighting . Krrsantan then knocked both himself and 3PO out . Krrsantan survived the battle . He and several other bounty hunters were secretly hired by Vader to find Aphra ; dead or alive . He then met up with Vader on Anthan 13 with a squad of commando droids . Krrsantan , along with 0 - 0 - 0 and BT - 1 then went to Cosmatanic Steppes to retrieve Aphra . He then took her to Lord Vader ' s new flagship , the " Executor " . He then fought alongside Aphra and her droids against Cylo ' s forces . Krrsantan stayed with Aphra because she owed him money .
