## Plot

In 1983, Ivan Shreikov, a Japanese-Russian crime leader of a yakuza army, arrives at an abandoned battlefield in search of The Emerald of Doom, an emerald that can grant any wish in terms of interests, which is located in the center of the battlefield. The Emerald Guardian, a descendant of the Power Gods that has been guarding the emerald for millions of years, tries to stop him before getting silted in the throat. The Emerald Guardian then uses his final moments to perform a ritual to summon a strong force shield to protect the emerald before dying from his injuries. Ivan then tries destroying the shield with his samurai sword before the shield pushes the sword by force back to him, impaling his eye. So Ivan grabs hold of the Emerald Guardian’s staff which contains a small chunk of the emerald’s power and swears revenge before departing with his men.

Present day, the battlefield is replaced by a prestigious school which surrounds the emerald along with the shield. The students all have powers and special abilities due to the emerald’s power, except a lonely and bullied teen named Ali Abouelfetouh, who doesn’t have any interests due to his indecisiveness and hesitations. Also in the school grounds is an enormous arena where Hashim Rwashdeh and his gang of criminal drug dealers hang out in and hosts illegal fights for money. Ali tries asking several people for help gaining popularity, but fails. After accidentally insulting Hashim, Ali is forced to fight him in front of the whole school but is saved by his friend, Moaz Ali. Chaos ensues in the arena when everyone joins in the fight, resulting them in getting caught and sent to detention.

Meanwhile, a now-powered up Shreikov and his evolved yakuza army march towards the school for revenge and for the emerald’s power and begin killing the school security guards and shooting the windows killing some teachers and students, including the detention monitor. Then Ali, Hashim, Moaz, and a bunch of other students use this opportunity to escape the detention room and take cover in another abandoned classroom. The group of escaped students consisting of Ali, Hashim, Moaz, Yaseen E. (The star jock of the school football team), Elias (a Danish gangster and playboy), Najdat (a bomb and nuke obsesser), Aly K.K (A drug smuggler working for Hashim and Loai's best friend and closest friend), Salma and Nermine (social media models), Loai (a Rick and Marty geek and billionaire), Kinan (Loai’s bodyguard and backup), and Tai Housley (an Australian gangster, and Elias’s rival), all decide to use their interests and strengths for their own defense and try to escape through the back gate but are stopped by El Guapo, a Mexican gangster and assassin who seeks revenge on Hashim for drugging and poisoning his crime boss and father, El Jefe.

El Guapo tries to kill the group but is held back by Tai, giving a chance for the rest to flee. El Guapo then kills Tai and searches the hallway for the group before getting knocked unconscious by Hashim. Meanwhile, Marwan Ahmad, a narcissistic stealth-boy betrays the rest of the class who are taking cover in the main hall and joins forces with Shreikov, and proceeds to kills some students and guarding the main hall and kill whoever tries to escape. As for the escaped group, they convince El Guapo and Hashim to form a truce and help defeat the yakuzas, and El Guapo reluctantly agrees, before trying to rescue the students held hostage in the main hall, and Marwan gets subdued by Moaz, causing him to flee and summon Shreikov to the school grounds.

Then the group convince the rest of the students to work together and face the army as one. So the students rush towards the yakuzas and a huge war begins. Yaseen E. gets his leg chopped off, Nermine gets shot in the heart and falls unconscious, Ali K sacrifices his life to save Loai which causes him to unlock his true potential, El Guapo gets stabbed in the chest and falls into critical conditions, and Marwan gets killed by Moaz for betraying everyone. Shreikov then storms towards the emerald and manages to destroy the shield, before getting subdued by Hashim. Ali then faces his indecisiveness and uses the emerald to power up The Infinity Blade, and flees. Najdat decides to buy Shreikov time by blowing up a nuke that destroys the school and killing many students (including himself) and yakuzas in the process.

Shreikov then emerges from the rubble and starts to beat up Ali for ruining his plans, before Ali reaches for the blade and knocks him to the ground, giving Ali time to stand up and a brutal duel ensues, resulting in the destruction of the emerald and staff and both Ali and Shreikov to become badly injured and bruised. Ali uses his remaining strength to silt Shreikov’s throat, killing him and avenging everyone’s death. Ali then reunites and reconciles with the remaining survivors: Moaz, Hashim, Elias, Salma, Yaseen E. (Whose removed leg was replaced by a prosthetic leg), Loai, Kinan, Nermine, El Guapo (who is in a critical condition), Aron Lee, Omar Mohasseb, Celine Khaled, Sa3doon Mossad, and a bunch of other students. And the survivors then mourn for the deaths of their fallen comrades and leave the destroyed school as authorities arrive to clean up the damage and mess caused by the battle.
