Long before time had a name, the First Spinjitzu Master created Ninjago using five elemental weapons. But when he passed, a dark presence sought out to collect them all: Lord Garmadon. So I, Sensei Wu, his brother, sought out to find five ninja to collect them first.

PLAY MY SHI-
=====================================================================================================
The ninja watch as Zane breaks his breath-holding record.
Kai: Ten minutes! He just broke his own record. The guy's inhuman!
Zane is shown on the ocean floor. He pets a fish before resurfacing. The ninja cheer for him.
Cole: Amazing!
Jay: We're not worthy.
Zane: I broke the record?
Toge: You destroyed it!
Jay: Okay, okay. Is anyone thinking what I'm thinking? We've been training for so long, I don't think we can get any better. Just think about all we've accomplished.
A flashback ensues showing Kai running across several hot coals, it changes to Toge using his Solar surfer as he was now free falling in the sky during a powerful wind current, then transitions to Jay spinning on a metal rod on one hand during a Lightning storm and finally shows Cole attempting to lift a barbell only to add on more weights before lifting it. It's also shown to have Nya on one end and Jay on the other each with a dumbbell and the latter with holding a chicken platter before returning to the present.
Zane: The question should be raised. Perhaps we have reached our full potential?
They head inside the Destiny's Bounty to find Wu.
Zane: Well, every morning I do five hundred push-ups.
Kai: Five hundred? Ha, try a thousand.
Jay: Hahaha, I do a thousand and one.
Toge: Try a million.
Cole: What is this, amateur hour? Sounds like my warm-up. Sensei, what does True Potential look like if—
They see Master Wu putting away a katana.
Zane: Our apologies, Sensei. We've interrupted you.
Wu: I'm sorry if I've been distant lately. My mind has been elsewhere since Lloyd has gone missing. What can I help you with?
Cole: Sensei, what if we've done enough training? What if we've reached our True Potential like Toge? What if we're ready?
Wu: Hm. You might have reached peak physical condition, but you've yet to reach your inner potential. In each and every one of us, there are obstacles that hold us back. Only when you conquer that fear will your heart be free. Only then will you reach your True Potential. Only then will we have a fighting chance to stop the Serpentine from releasing the Great Devourer.
Zane: There's more to the Great Devourer than you've led on, isn't there, Sensei?
Wu: I too have obstacles within my own heart. There's a story I've never told you.
A flashback begins.
Wu: Long ago, when I was a young boy, Garmadon and I were more than brothers. We were the best of friends.
