## Overview

Temporal chaos unfolds. In the wake of their battles to save the realm from a dark age, the Ninja Force's heroes find themselves in a state of exhaustion as it took a lot to bring down and banish Shiro Garmadon and his supporters. While the majority of the team trains to get stronger and get themslves back on track, Michael is alerted to a series of arsons in New Genesis City. As the Green Ninja leaps into action to help the Police Force alongside James and Samurai X, he soon steps into a trap that was intended for someone else. After a traumatic explosion, the aftermath of the incident yields one result for Michael: his powers have been stripped away from him. Patched up but still shocked by this new reality, Michael and Kate head overseas to find out why they lost their powers and if they truly need them or not, but such a journey could help them discover more within themselves.

As the two leave on their quest for answers, the Ninja Force's path back to union is interrupted as an enemy from 30 years in the future comes to change the past to his own gain. Realizing that this guy doesn't have all his screws intact, the team sets out to prevent him from rupturing the timeline and figure out why this "Kronos" so desperately wants such drastic changes. With a collective of Time Pirates at his back, Kronos plans to wield his tools to hold back the heroes while he harnesses the powers of Time to stop an evil uprising. As the team sets out on this bizarre adventure, Kai, Cody, Brooklyn, Luke and Ronin encounter a new mercenary called Viper Z who wants to take down the Borg Family and establish a new form of order, but this could lead to evil exploiting the opportunities. What is it that Kronos wants to change so desperately or what is it that Viper Z has against the Borgs? Can Michael and Kate get the answers they seek? Will the Ninja Force be able to unravel the mystery of Kronos or will time lapse in on itself because of his actions? Such things are uncertain in such a time of chaos...
