According to the show , the The Great Devourer is awakened and devours Sensei Wu and Pythor before chasing after the ninja . The Great Devourer destroys the Destiny ' s Bounty , then ninja rush to Ed ' N Edna ' s Junkyard , where Kai shows the other ninjas a set of blueprints that show a vehicle of massive size . They use the Tornado of Creation to build the Ultra Sonic Raider from junk found in the scrapyard . The Raider is damaged by the Great Devourer ' s tail . The set ' s story tells that Pythor is alive . In Double Trouble , Bizzaro Jay kisses Nya , who is working on the Ultra Sonic Raider , in order to steal the keys . Later , it was repaired by Nya in Ninjaball Run . As soon as the race begins , the Ninja find that the Raider won ' t operate due to Gene and Brad Tudabone tampering with it before the race . At the starting line , the Ninja succeed in fixing the Raider and join the race again . To ensure he wins , Lord Garmadon wishes for a divide that the Ninja will not be able to cross . Although hope seems lost , Kai uses the lever that Nya installed which causes the Raider to grow wings and cross the divide . Both Lord Garmadon and the Ninja fight for the lead , but the Ninja win by placing a piece from Ed Walker and Edna Walker ' s car crossing the finish line first . The Raider was later used briefly in The Day Ninjago Stood Still to transport the Ninja and their allies while the city was being attacked by the Stone Army . It appears to have subsequently been abandoned , though it was apparently recovered by the events of The Surge as Brad Tudabone questioned why they couldn ' t use it to go to New Ninjago City instead of a bus .
