Yang Wu

**Yang Wu** (also known as **Sensei Wu**) is the current Elemental Master of Creation and the Son of the First Spinjitzu Master. He is also Yin Garmadon's Brother, Lyonna Yin Garmadon's Uncle, and Koko Misako Garmadon's Brother-in-law.

## History

Yang Wu is born as the second son of the First Spinjitzu Master. He inherits the dragons' element of Creation from his father, in order for his children to represent balance. Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon would successfully perform Spinjitzu for the first time while fighting off bullies.

Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon discover the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu as their father writes them, but he would not allow them to use it. Yang Wu teaches Spinjitzu to Aspheera privately, after she helps him and Yin Garmadon get out of the cell when the two crossed the line between the humans and Serpentine. Aspheera would use her new ability to briefly overthrow King Mambo V. Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon steal the Scrolls and use Forbidden Spinjitzu to defeat Aspheera, restoring Mambo V to power. Mambo sentences Aspheera to magical entombment until her sins are forgotten. Aspheera declares vengeance on Yang Wu for not teaching her all his secrets and leaving her to her fate. The First Spinjitzu Master takes the scrolls back from Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon for disobeying him and hides them in separate unknown locations.

At some point after this, the three move into the Monastery of Spinjitzu. Yin Garmadon and Yang Wu spar one day, but Yang loses one of the katanas over the wall of the monastery. Afraid of their father's disapproval, Yang Wu chooses not to go after it, but Yin Garmadon does. In the process, he is bitten by the young Great Devourer, a snake corrupted by The Overlord’s Darkness,  and becomes ill as its evil venom starts to affect him, even causing him to tell his father that he hates him, and blaming Yang Wu for all that happened.

At some point before the Death of the First Spinjitzu Master, Yang Wu was given the staff of his father. He and Yin also recieved Kimonos after their fathers passing.

Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon fight and defeat Samukai, Leader of the Skulkin of the Underworld, as at some point when he decides to come back to the realm after his death.

The Serpentine War begins, and Yin Garmadon defects from Chen. Yin Garmadon, Yang Wu, and the Elemental Alliance fight the Serpentine, who would in turn eventually split up after the war.

Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon use the Time Blades to battle the Time Twins and absorb their power. Yang Wu and Yin Garmadon dispose of the Time Blades through a temporal rift as The Masters of Time follow them and become lost in time.

Shortly after this, Yang Wu discovers the Reversal Time Blade in the woods. Knowing it was too powerful to keep, he ordered the Masters of Fire & Water to dispose of it within the Boiling Sea, knowing that only the future Elemental Masters of Fire and Water working together could reach the blade through a series of trials.

The evil in Yin Garmadon completely overtakes him, and it mainly manifests itself in the form of overwhelming greed. He returns to the Monastery of Spinjitzu to steal the Golden Weapons in an attempt to recreate Ninjago in his own image. Yang Wu confronts him, and after a short battle, the combination of the four weapons and the protection spell on Yang Wu's kimono opens a gateway to the Underworld. Yin Garmadon is struck by lightning, blackening his skin and casting him down. Fully succumbed to the evil in his veins, Yin Garmadon battles Samukai for command over the Skulkin army and easily wins, taking his helmet and becoming the ruler of the Underworld. Yang Wu realizes that Yin Garmadon will stop at nothing to get the Golden Weapons, so he hides them away in secret locations, each guarded by an Elemental Dragon. Yang Wu then makes a map of the four secret locations so someone could find them if he perishes, and gives the map to a trustworthy friend.

Yang Wu recruited Brian Yang, Himari Maya Fukami, Jake Saphire, Jack Alloy, Aaron Mayer, The Elemental Master of Ice, and Amaro Shinko to his Ninja Team.
