Iru was among the soldiers King Cold took with him to attack Earth. On Earth, Mecha Frieza asks him to kill Future Trunks. Iru scans Trunks with his scouter, stating that his power level is only 5 (because Trunks suppressed his true power to mislead Frieza and King Cold), before charging his arm cannon and blasting Trunks. Future Trunks deflected Iru's blast and easily killed him with one punch.
