Chen's ferry arrived at an island.

Cole: Look at that.

Kaya: Awesome.

Karlof: Let me see.

He pushed Kaya.

Kaya: Where's your manners?

Clouse: Welcome to Chen's Island. The Tournament of Elements welcomes its brave fighters. Master Chen will be pleased you've returned, Sensei Garmadon.

Garmadon: The pleasure is all mine, Clouse.

Clouse: I'm sure it is.

Clouse walked away and everyone started to climb of the boat.

Jay: Definitely feeling some tension between you two.

Kaya: Yeah, and how is it we're on an island I've never seen on any map? Or read about?

Cole: And care to explain how the face to Ninjago's most popular noodle house is secretly assembling an underground fighting tournament?

Garmadon: Master Chen used to be a friend. Now he's a traitor. During the Serpentine Wars, Chen turned against his own kind and sided with the treacherous snakes.

Lloyd: The battle you and Uncle Wu fought together in? He was an enemy?

Garmadon: He used deception to divide the Elemental Masters. We barely defeated the Serpentine, and in a deal for his surrender, Chen was to never leave this island. Little did we know, he'd begin to build his criminal empire from here.

Lloyd: He may have divided our ancestors, but he's not gonna divide us.

Kaya saw Skylor walking and thought about when they shaked hands. But snapped out of it of Cole speaking.

Cole: This is a big island. Zane could be anywhere. Keep an eye out.

Jay: So this is the house that noodles built. Ha! Always wanted to go to a red carpet event.

Garmadon: Chen lives like a king. Here, he's totally self-sufficient. The only way on or off this island is with his permission, which you have to earn.

Lloyd: You never told me about this place. How do you know so much about this island?

Garmadon: Because before Chen was my enemy, he was my Sensei.

He showed them his Anacondrai tattoo.The Elemental Masters arrived inside the palace and sat in a circle.

Lloyd: You never told me you had a Sensei.

Garmadon: When I was your age, I sought a darker means of guidance. He taught me to win at all cost, no matter who I hurt. It wasn't until you saved me that I saw the light.

Jay: Uh, apparently he also never taught you to have a sense of humor. Lighten up, we're in an underground fight club. This is supposed to be fun.

Zugu banged a gong and Eyezor turned on a gramophone.

Clouse: All rise for Master Chen.

Master Chen came down on his chair.

Chen: Welcome to the Tournament of Elements. Now everyone can all di—

The door sudden closed and everyone gasped.

Chen: —rect your attention to me!

He laughed. Garmadon whisperd to Lloyd.

Garmadon: I forgot to mention he has a penchant for theatrics.

Chen: 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.
