## Plot

''The ninja has to face master Wu's old enemy's to restore peace in Ninjago.''- Official YouTube playlist description.

### Episode 1: JOIN THE WU CRU!!!

The story starts with Sensei Wu asking Kai, Nya, Jay, Cole and Zane to join the Wu Cru. When he met Jay and Cole, they were under the attack of villains. However, when he met Zane he was meditating in ice-cold water.

After Kai, Jay, Zane and Cole had joined the Wu Cru, Sensei Wu decided to tell them the story of the four Elemental Weapons. They were weapons created by First Spinjitzu Master himself and the ninja must find them in order to defeat the new enemies.

After Sensei Wu finished his tale, a four-armed stone warrior attacked the ninja. Using spinjitzu, Zane quickly defeated the threat and equiped their armour on himself. However, an army of ghosts then appeared and surrounded the ninja. With the attack of the ghost dragon, not even his stone armour was enough to protect him. It caused enormous damage to Zane and with his skin shed off he realised something: he is no human. He is a Nindroid. Furthermore, the ghost's attack cost Cole his life. Yet, somehow he remained among the living in the form of a ghost.

The episode ends with the ninja being arrested by police officers.

### Episode 2: Kryptarium

The ninja were imprisoned because they took part in Master Chen's Tournament of Elements in spite of tournaments being illegal in Ninjago. While not an actual participant but a prisoner, Zane was still imprisoned because him being on his island was proof enough of his guild in the eyes of the police.

While Nya was wondering how they could possibly escape, Zane crushed her hopes saying there is no possible way to escape. With Cole being put in a deepstone cell, he couln't even use his ghost abilities to escape and let free the other ninja. And since the ninja's attacks can't be controlled untill they unlock their true potential, there truly was no way out.

During lunch break, Captain Soto and Lloyd Garmadon ate lunch together with the ninja. Meanwhile, Chen's Soldier decided to awaken the Evil Ghost out of his hatred for the ninja locking him in prison. Chen's Soldier wishing to be freed out of prison, was instead locked within the Evil Ghost's Djinn Blade. Proclaiming he is going to catch other Elemental Masters inside his blade, the Evil Ghost summoned his pirate crew. Between all those pirates, Ronin's former boss was present.

   Lloyd meanwhile reveals that he is the son of Lord Garmadon and that the police imprisoned him purely because he happened to be his son, to which Kai responds that Sensei Wu used to say that someone named Lloyd would one day become the green ninja. With a most smug attitude, Lloyd told the ninja of fire that he possesses green powers.

While Ronin warned the ninja about the Evil Ghost, Soto gave the ninja a map to Tiger Widow Island to obtain a venom to defeat the Evil Ghost. When Soto wished he had never seen the Evil Ghost, he too got locked inside the blade.

With half of the prison suddenly flying high into the sky, the police allowed the ninja to be free so long as they defeat the Evil Ghost and his army of pirates.

The Evil Ghost wishes to create Djinjago out of Ninjago.

### Episode 3: The Power of the Green Ninja

Lloyd killed a pirate with his green energy and then flew away using the power of airjitzu.

Later, when the ninja noticed a falcon, Zane revealed the metallic bird to be actuality his brother. Following after the bird for hours, it led the ninja to the factory where Zane was build. Cyrus Borg then appeared at revealed that while he helped to build Zane, he is neither his father nor the person who build his original self. Dr. Jullien was. When Dr. Jullien appeared in a hologram, Zane reached his true potential and became the Titanium Ninja.

Fearing the ninja growing more powerful, the Evil Ghost ordered his pirates to attack the ninja at once. While attempting to backstab the Evil Ghost, Ronin was instead defeated by him. Lloyd then reached his true potential in order to protect his friend Ronin, and became the Golden Ninja. The Ultimate Spinjitzu Master.

Samurai X then entered the scene and killed a pirate before being sucked into the Evil Ghost's blade too. The Evil Ghost then tried to suck Lloyd into his blade, but his blade couldn't take Lloyd power and shattered into pieces. Lloyd then finished the Evil Ghost off with his golden dragon. All souls trapped inside his blade where then set free, which simultaneously revealed to the ninja that Nya's secret identity was Samurai X.

But then suddenly, the factory Kai was standing on launched high up in the sky and when a portal opened up behind him, Kai dissapeared into it.

### Episode 4: Battle at Tiger Widow Island

Deciding to listen to what Soto told the ninja earlier, they departed towards Tiger Widow Island. As soon as he set foot on the island, Master Wu found the Realm Crystal. But when he walked away, snakes emerged from a shield he kicked out of the way and awakened a Vermillion warrior. While Wu was busy defeating a snake of another species, Nya obtained the venom. While the ninja were wondering why there are so many snakes on the island, Sensei Wu was struck from behind by one of those very snakes and almost died, but thanks to the Tiger Widow Venom he survived. Ronin then appeared and chased the snake away.

The falcon appeared again and after chasing it for a while, the ninja found three Elemental Weapons. Cole became a human again upon touching the Hammer of Earth.

### Episode 5: Home Coming

With the Evil Ghost gone, the Kryptarium prison fell down back to the earth, with the pirates hopelessly falling down as the result. After locking them in the prison cells, Wu activated the Realm Crystal to bring Kai home.

### Episode 6: Master Wu's Big Story

With all the ninja, Samurai X and Ronin meeting at the prison, Sensei Wu decided it was time to tell a story of the past after a question asked by Kai.

When Wu, Misako and Garmadon were young, there was a Snake War between the Masters of the Elements and the Snakes. The Elemental Masters banished all the snakes to the Cursed Realm in order to put an end to the war, but the ghosts had managed to escape in the little time they had opened the portal ot the Cursed Realm. The ghosts then turned Wu's young student, Morro, into one of them, and then all ghosts left the battlefield. Morro took Wu's Realm Crystal and left too. Then, opening a portal to the pirate realm, the pirates escaped too. Because they wanted to destroy Wu and all his friends, he didn't have friends for years.

Meanwhile, at the ghost house, Ghoultar who had been spying on the ninja, reports to Morro that Wu is in fact the brother of their Dark Lord. With the order to kill everyone of the Garmadon bloodline except him, the credits started rolling.

### Episode 7: Snakes In Fire!!!

Suddenly, snakes appeared everywhere around the ninja temple and started attacking the ninja. Fighting back, Kai accidentally sets fire on the temple using his Elemantal Sword. Zane then extinguished the fire, but it wasn't enough. The temple collapsed and brought down the snakes with it.

### Episode 8: Facing Your Fears

Strongly wishing to succeed, Zane manifested an Elemental Dragon of ice after facing his fears and with it successfully extinguished the burning temple ruins. All other ninja then manifested their own Elemental Dragon and they all flew away, ready to kick some ghost ass!

### Episode 9: A NEW NINJA

The ninja were chasing a ghost riding a dragon top their own Elemental Dragons while Wu, Nya and a construction company were rebuilding the prison temple. When Nya asked why she can't help the ninja, Master Wu revealed she has elemental water powers. Nya fainted upon hearing that.

In the city of Stixx, Cole and Jay fused together to create a combined duo true potential to battle and defeat Ghoultar.

After his death, more ghosts appeared. But just when the fused beast was about to be cornered, Nya and Wu appeared on Nya's Elemental Water Dragon and eradicated all the ghosts.

### Episode 10: The Tournament of Elements

This episode was a flashback to the Tournament of Elements first mentioned way back in the second episode.

When the four original ninja had just joined the Wu Cru they wanted to train much more, and in doing so they decided to join an illegal fightclub. Spider-Man, the master of spider-things was a participant. He lost his battle against Kai, the master of fire. Yoda won his fight against the halfnaked Jay. The battle between R2-D2 and Zane ended in a tie. Zane was also taken a prisoner after his first battle because he broke the rules and hacked. After asking for some money, Nya stubbornly refused and stabbed Ronin in his eye resulting in Nya winning the round. Cole's opponent was BADCOP. They neverr finished their battle because BADCOP was an undercover agent and he finally found the forbidden fight club, so naturally he reported it to his superiors.

## Development

Cole was seen having the Hammer of Earth at 1:21 in the first episode, despite the ninja not finding the Elemental Weapons until much later.
