CChen
Welcome to the Tournament of Elements. Now everyone can all di—[the door suddenly closes and everyone gasps] —rect your attention to me!
[whispering to Lloyd] I forgot to mention he has a penchant for theatrics.
CChen
[laughs] Never before have so many Elemental Fighters been under one roof. I see Master of Fire, Earth, Shadow, Speed, even a prophesied Green Savior. And a former pupil has returned. [points to a gong] This symbol before you is for the Anacondrai, fiercest Serpentine warrior to ever roam this land. Its creed: "Only one can remain."
[The gong moves aside, showing brackets]
Good, looks like we're each in our own bracket. We won't have to face each other for a while.
Better find Zane before that happens.
CChen
[presents a Jadeblade] Behold, a Jadeblade. Here, it represents life. Obtain it, move on. Allow your opponent to take it, loser. The rules are simple. Every match will be different. No two fights will be the same. Your powers will keep you in the Tournament. Use it or lose it.
Hm, what does Karlof win?
CChen
Win and stay on the island. Win it all, and you'll receive fortunes beyond your wildest dreams, and lifetime supply of Master Chen noodles. But no one is here because of noodle. You want the glory of being the greatest fighter in all of Ninjago!
[The Elemental Masters, except the ninja, cheer]
And what happens if they lose?
CChen
Lose? Who here likes to lose? [everyone else laughs, except the ninja] Now please, enjoy my island. It's a super fun happy place. Hahaha. Fun time on me.
CChen
I hope the Tournament of Elements has entertained you as much as it has me. To thank you, I wanted to give everyone fancy jewels and untold shiny things. But then in yesterday's battle, Master Jay and Cole tried to undermine me by teaming up and refusing to fight each other. And that made me very upset. For their insubordination, all of your fancy quarters will be taken away, and tonight everyone must sleep together in the chow house. That is all. Thank you, you can go.
[The Elemental Masters walk away]
Don't worry about them. We aren't here to make friends, just to save ours.
Yes, but your exclusion of others has only made enemies. Beware how you treat those around you, for they will treat you the same.
[Garmadon and Nya wake up tied to posts]
Yes. What- what happened?
We have to get out of here.
[They try to break free of the chains. Chen and Clouse enter]
My pet loves the smell of fear.
Where's my son? What have you done with-
CChen
I have your son, but his power will be mine at the ceremony tonight. I'm sorry you didn't get an invite. I'm still a little hurt when my pupil decided to betray me so long ago.
But how did you defeat him?
CChen
Oh, I had a little help.
[Kai walks in, looking ashamed and guilty. Nya gasps in shock]
You pitted the ninja against themselves, just as you did the elemental masters.
Why, Kai? How could you do this?
Chen holds all the power. Lloyd alone never stood a chance. I had to think about what was best for us. He'll let you go if-
I'd rather be snake food!
[Chen and Clouse laugh]
CChen
Or what? You've changed, remember? You're Sensei Garmadon. You're a good guy. Threats don't frighten me.
[Garmadon pushes Skylor away]
My pet may be napping, but she's always hungry when she wakes up.
CChen
You had a good run, Garmadon, but all good things must come to an end.
Hurry, Kai. You must destroy the staff.
[corrupted by the staff] Chen was right. This thing's awesome!
Kai, it holds too much power! Destroy it! [to Skylor] The power is corrupting him. If we don't get that staff out of his hands—
No one is taking my staff! You had all that power. Now it's my turn! [back to normal] Ah, what am I saying? [corrupted again] Nothing I don't already feel!
CChen
Yes, yes. Embrace the power.
[normal] I can't... I can't control it! [corrupted again] I don't want to control it! I SHOULD'VE BEEN THE GREEN NINJA!
[to everyone] We fight for each other, we fight as one!
[The Cultists charge towards them and fall through the hole]
CChen
Trapdoor?! That's my signature move! Ugh, destroy them!
[As the Anacondrai Generals' spirits curse Chen and his army…]
CChen
Arcturus! What are you doing?! W-we're on the same team!
AArcturus
You will never be one of us. Because you are a liar, a cheat, and an imposter!
