Grand Finale

Grand Finale[]

In the city of Stiix, Jay, Zane, Cole, Kai, and Nya gather around the remains of Ronin's pawn shop, where The Preeminent emerges. Although the Ninja fight their hardest against the creature, they are unable to subdue it. Although Zane suggested the possibility of the Preeminent being vulnerable to Deepstone, much like the Ghost Warriors who served her, Cole's sacrifice of his Ghost Cycle did nothing to stop her.

As the ninja battle the Preeminent, Lloyd awakens in the Cursed Realm and wanders in search of his father. This attracts the attention of the imprisoned Chen, who believes he saw Lloyd run by, but Clouse remarks that he's seeing things again. Suddenly, Lloyd discovers his father bound in chains with one on both of his arms. Lloyd embraces him and tries to break his chains, but Garmadon informs him that they're unbreakable. He then explains that the Cursed Realm is the Preeminent and the other way around. Lloyd states that now Morro has the Realm Crystal and now seems to be the Green Ninja. Garmadon tells him that he must save Ninjago and destroy the Preeminent, with Lloyd vowing not to fail him.

In Stiix, the ninja continue their desperate battle against the Preeminent and Morro's army of ghosts. Wu and Misako arrive, telling them that their only hope now is to flee the city with its citizens. The ninja flee the scene, heading to the docks where Ronin slashes apart the Preeminent's tentacles to allow citizens to get on the ship. As the ninja board, Morro arrives, followed by Lloyd who is now wearing his father's robes. Lloyd seizes the Sword of Sanctuary, and subduing Morro. As Lloyd battles Morro, the latter orders his army to protect the Preeminent as he and Lloyd are thrust into a battle that jumps from realm to realm. Back in Stiix, in order to prevent the Preeminent from being killed, Morro's army of ghosts attach houses, temples and buildings to its body to create a massive "suit" for it that would give the beast legs and prevent it from making contact with the water.

With help from Morro's army of ghosts, the Preeminent moves slowly through Stiix, heading towards the ship as it flees from the city. Kai, Cole, Jay, Zane, and Nya return to Stiix using Airjitzu, battling the ghosts and attempting to deal with the Preeminent. Eventually, Nya tells her fellow ninja that they aren't able to stop the Preeminent, and the best thing they can do for the time being is to protect the ship. The ninja agree and they all regroup with the civilians.

Shortly afterwards, Morro returns to Ninjago, having trapped Lloyd in a separate realm. As the Preeminent bears down upon them, Nya unlocks her True Potential. In doing so, she creates a massive tidal wave that crashes into the Preeminent, sending it toppling forwards and falling into Hallows Trench. The Preeminent then sinks into the depths of the Endless Sea, destroying the Cursed Realm and killing all its inhabitants, with the Cursed Realm pulling all of the ghosts into the water except for Morro, who stays above the surface.

As the civilians and the ninja rejoice on the ship, Wu heads out over the sea on his dragon, spotting Morro being pulled down towards the water by one of the Preeminent's tentacles. Although Morro was able to keep himself afloat for now by using his power over Wind, Wu tried to intervene and save him. but Morro refuses Wu's help. Instead, Morro tells Wu that he can only save those who want to be saved, and bids him farewell as he lets go of his hand and gives him the Realm Crystal. Morro is then pulled into the sea, where he dies as he is permanently dissolved by the water, much to Wu's despair.

Shortly afterwards, the ninja regroup with Wu and Misako on the deck of the ship. Using the Realm Crystal, Wu returns Lloyd to Ninjago. Lloyd reminisces on what happened and notes that even though he may be the Green Ninja, he doesn't always have to be the one who saves the day, adding that he always knew he could count on his friends.
