Answer:
Huck seems indifferent to his own claim about the kings of the past and the present, their companion "king" included.
But in giving the story of Henry VIII to Jim, he meant to show that all kings are the same, be it past or present, real or fake king.
Explanation:
When Huck told Jim about Henry VIII in Chapter 23 of Mark Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", he did not seem to really believe it. But there is also no proof of his own disbelief of the story either. According to him, there is no such real difference in the kings of the past and the 'king' who's their companion.
In his description of Henry VIII, Huck seems to have a mild idea of many stories which he composed into one tale. He attributes Henry VIII with that of the king in the stories of One Thousand Nights, the historical Boston Tea Party and the Declaration of Independence. There is no such demarcation of story and history for him.
But whatever that may be, his claim seems to be that he wants to show how almost everyone, be it the kings of the past and the one they have as a companion, are all the same. Some lines after this passage, he said "<em>What was the use to tell Jim these warn’t real kings and dukes? It wouldn’t a done no good; and, besides, it was just as I said: you couldn’t tell them from the real kind</em>."
