Ninja Henchmen only make two appearances in the original version of ''[[Rayman 2]]'', both as mini-bosses.

The first one is encountered at the end of [[the Precipice]], in a [[Robo-Pirate]] establishment with a docked [[warship]]. In order to be able to unlock a door to reach the exit [[Spiral Door]], this Ninja Henchman must be defeated. It will attack [[Rayman]] by firing large conical projectiles akin to those fired by some models of [[Henchman 800]], it will also swipe at [[Rayman]] with its hook should he be within range. A good technique to quickly defeat this Ninja Henchman is to have the docked [[warship]] shoot at the Ninja Henchman accidentally as it attempts to shoot at [[Rayman]].

Ninja Henchmen feature more prominently in this version of the game, where it is revealed that they are their own unique squad within the [[Robo-Pirate]] army. Their leader is also revealed to be [[Ninjaws]], who will personally fight [[Rayman]] as the boss of [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]], to prevent him from gaining possession of [[Four Masks of Polokus|the second mask of Polokus]]. Another three Ninja Henchmen make appearances as mini-bosses in [[the Precipice]], [[the Tomb of the Ancients]], and [[Gloomy Island]].

[[Ninjaws]] and the Ninja Henchmen in this game all employ the same technique, they will disappear and reappear after every attack. Their main tactic is to try and appear close to [[Rayman]] and hit him with their hooks, dodging this attack successfully is vital, as it is revealed by [[Umber]] that their hooks are heavy. It is due to this heaviness that the Ninja Henchman will momentarily struggle to lift their hooks, should [[Rayman]] dodge them, and thus, give him an opening to retaliate. In addition to this attack, they will also periodically fire yellow energy projectiles at [[Rayman]]. When sufficiently damaged, they will disappear and reappear in a circular pattern, firing a projectile each time they reappear, before returning to attacking with their hooks.

In ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'', Ninja Henchmen are referred as the Generator Guardians of the two [[Generator room|generators]] of the [[Pirate Factory]] and can be seen standing on either side of [[Admiral Razorbeard]]'s chair in [[the Prison Ship]] cutscenes. They have unlimited heath, as it is not necessary to defeat them in order to destroy the [[Generator room|generators]]; however, it can be done by [[Magic fist|shooting]] them as they stand near a pool of lava, causing them to fall in. They fire the same bullets as the [[Green Henchman 800|green Henchmen 800]]s, but they are more accurate and faster. Once [[Rayman]] destroys the [[Generator room|generators]], he can enter the [[Pirate Factory]]. After he has destroyed them, these two Ninja Henchmen are absent in the next [[Admiral Razorbeard|Razorbeard]] cutscene, regardless of whether [[Rayman]] actually destroys them or not.

Notably, their hands look like fists, although they have hook in right hand, growing up from the fingers, and they can shoot with the flames from their left hands, like normal [[Henchman 800|Henchmen]], although it appears that they are shooting from their fingers.
