## Overview

The six ninja return! After their misadventure on Earth-92, the war rages on with full force. Saikō goes on his own little side quest to obtain an ancient weapon and puts his second-in-command named Phobos in charge of the Oni forces. In Saikō's noticeable absence, the Phantom makes a push in the war to try and wipe out the Oni. But Phobos is different from Saikō as he can control the fear of living beings and he decides to use them on both of his enemies. Both the Prowler forces and MPC are under his influence now. He summons a corrupted Earth-44 Lloyd and Skurge from Samara's vessel reserves to keep both of his enemies at bay while he tries to find a way to properly fill Saikō's role. Can our heroes overcome these illusions of fear, stop Phantom's push, and defeat Phobos before Saikō's return? Fear unlocks memories of pain in this new season...
