After Spike and everyone else had found out who the mysterious figure was thanks to Scales, it having been revealed to be Pythor who was somehow still alive, they made their way back to Borg tower to discuss on what to do, they had the feeling Lloyd was in danger at this very moment, and they needed to hurry up and find a way to stop the Overlord for good before he gets his own physical form.

Borg was currently working on a special device that could help them succeed in this plan, once Pixal hooked herself up to give a special machine enough power, Borg was able to come up with a plan that could help them all.
"I think we should put the main switch over here, to keep it tucked away for safe keeping." Borg suggested while he put a large button behind his desk for safety while the other's were discussing on what to do.

"You got any ideas on what we can do Borg?" Spike asked hopefully while Allison was crossing her arms.

"I've come up with a few.. with a little of my ingenuity, and a few more coaxial cables, we may be able to reboot the system with your Techno Blades, and erase the Digital Overlord for good!" Borg replied as he was using some cables he had to try and restore power into the office.

"I thought we needed the stolen hardrive to do that?" Jay asked while Borg turned to them after getting an idea on what to do.

"That was before I was able to understand the capability's, of what Zane's powers truly allow us. " Borg said with a smile while they were a bit confused.

"And what is that?" Kai asked as Borg tried getting the power on some more.

"A chance to enter remotely. By the time we figure out where Lloyd is, it'll be too late to stop the Overlord from draining his powers to escape the digital realm." Borg said with some fear at the possibility as they saw codes and number's on the screens near them.

"I still can't believe that Pythor was the one able to steal it, after all these years, he just suddenly comes back after we thought he was gone. And now we'll have him to deal with later.." Allison said as she shook her head with frustration at the thought of it.

"Pythor is still a dangerous foe like the last time we saw him, he's still an Anacondrai like you Allison, if we come across him, we need to be careful when we do." Cole replied while still feeling upset knowing he's still out there, they all were just as shocked knowing it was him, but after seeing what he can do, it made sense at this point.

"So how are we gonna be able to stop the Overlord for good?" Spike asked while he walked up to Borg a bit more.

"By digitizing You and the ninja, as well as the Techno Blades, and by using my experimental technology.. you all can fight him on his own turf, inside the Digiverse!" Borg answered while he made a few sparks with the cables which was making the monitor's of the Digiverse come online.

"What do you mean.. inside the Digiverse?" Jay asked with a confused look which everyone found annoying.

"Weren't you listening? He's going to put us into the video game." Cole said bluntly while Jay was geeking out over the idea of it.

"I know! I was just wanting to hear it again!" Jay said with joy while Pixal was very worried at the idea.

"But Mr Borg, if anything were to happen to them in the Digiverse.." Pixal said with fear while Borg knew what she was implying.

"Of course, every step into the unknown has it's dangers." Borg replied while they were getting worried hearing that.

"What dangers? What do you mean?" Kai asked with a worried look.

"You know how in video games, you get.. multiple lives?" Borg asked which Jay was eager to answer.

"Yeah?!" Jay asked excitedly while he looked back at the giant monitor in the room.

"It's not like that." Borg answered making them all gulp at the news.

"Okay, so if we die in the Digiverse, we die for real, got it." Spike said with a worried look while Allison gave him another hug to assure him since he'll be going into the Digiverse at any moment.

But after a few more sparks, the monitor's all finally came online, and they could see the Digiverse fully after they made a bright flash.
"Presto! We are up and running!" Borg said with joy just until they heard a knock on the door, and unfortunately, they saw the citizens from earlier who were very annoyed about the lack of power they've had, and after seeing he does, they got very mad thinking he's been holding back on them.

"I told you all! Borg's been holding out on us! He does have power!" The postman accused while the other citizens held what they could use as weapons currently while everyone else looked very annoyed seeing them here.

"Ugh, this is no time for post apocalyptic, role playing games Postman!" Borg said with frustration while the citizens were very upset with seeing this.

"This isn't a game anymore! We heard about the Nindroid activity, what if they come back? We need power to defend ourselves! And I want to catch up on my shows!" The postman countered as the monitor's were fully online at this moment.

"Would you like to play a game?" The monitor asked which made everyone more nervous seeing that in front of the citizens.

"See? They're just playing games! Take back the power!!" The postman screamed as all the citizens were about to attack them all.

"Allison, could you please?" Borg asked while he looked at her who understood what he was implying.

"I got it." Allison replied before she went in front of the people with a very upset look.

"All of you back off! You are wasting our time! If you want to watch your stupid shows again! You need to let us use what power we have!" Allison shouted before she made a very loud snake hiss which scared most of them and made them stop in their tracks.

"How can you guys not see that the Overlord is still in control of the machine's around the city? If you try using the power on anything else outside of this room, it'll go crazy and try to attack you! We need this power to destroy him, and let the city go back to normal! Why are you all so impatient with your stupid devices?!" Spike shouted with anger while he slapped his face.

"This is why I hate technology Spike." Kai replied while he crossed his arms feeling just as frustrated here.

But before they could speak about this any longer, the power was suddenly going on an off as a strange ominous sound was heard, then out of nowhere, strange golden orbs of energy were appearing all around the room, giving it an insane amount of power which was scaring everyone in the room.
"Where is all this power coming from?" Nya asked with fear while Borg had a dreadful feeling on what's wrong.

"It's Lloyd's power, it's begun. The Overlord has started the transference!" Borg said with fear as they looked over all the Golden Power around them that was reacting strangely.

And Borg couldn't be further from the truth, far away within the same machine that had taken Lloyd, he was currently trapped in a device that was transferring Lloyd's power into a device that was beginning to give the Overlord a physical form. Lloyd was groaning with pain as the power was being completely drained from him, and the Overlord was getting closer to becoming physical again by the second.
"Soon you will be utterly powerless! And I will escape this digital prison and become whole, and nothing will stop me from becoming the Golden Master!" Overlord shouted with malice as the transference was already over 75% complete and was being processed with every second as the machine was flying through the seas far away to avoid being found by anyone.

Things were getting worse as the Golden Power was spreading throughout the city, reactivating the corrupted machines that the Overlord still had control over, and making them stronger then before which began causing more chaos through the city.

Everyone was able to see this through the camera's throughout the city, and with the little time they have right now, they need to hurry to stop him before it's too late.
"Pixal, hurry! We need to isolate our server! If the Overlord finds out our plans to use the Techno Weapons remotely, Spike and the Ninja won't stand a chance!" Borg instructed with a fearful look which Pixal quickly went to get done.

"Isolating server. But we are already detecting an abnormal mass of power signatures." Pixal replied as they saw hundreds of red dots all over the monitor surrounding the tower.

"Oh no, they're already here! Initiate Lockdown!" Borg ordered as he pressed on a special button which started making large and tough gates rise around the entrance and walls of the tower, as well as locking down any door inside it to prevent intrusion.

But that won't hold for long, just outside the tower, Pythor, Tech Wu and Cryptor were marching to the tower with weapons and saws in order to tear through it, making sure to do anything they can to prevent the Overlord from being erased.
"The Techno Blades are on the top floor." Pythor announced while he looked at the droids who weren't moving at the moment which irritated him.

"What are you waiting for? Get rid of that door now!" Pythor ordered as Minidroid used a special machine with buzz saws attached to it which began sawing away at the door to cut through it.

The alarms on the monitor's were going off currently, and it made everyone very worried about all that's happening.
"Be seated Ninja! We don't have much time!" Borg ordered with a worried look while Spike and everyone else went to 5 chairs that were were what was gonna digitize them.

"Allison, whatever happens while me and the others are in there, make sure to keep Borg and Pixal safe! We can't risk losing now!" Spike said with a serious tone as he sat down in his chair to prepare himself.

"Don't worry dad! I'll make sure they'll regret attacking this place! I'm still getting used to turning invisible, but I'll use it the best I can! Good luck." Allison replied as Nya turned to the citizens who were worried about all of this.

"Do something useful and make sure Pythor and the Nindroids don't get up here! If you all want to watch your favorite shows and movies ever again, you need to get downstairs now!" Nya shouted to the postman who understood that order with the rest of the citizens, all of them made loud war cries and began running through the doors to prevent them from coming up stairs, giving them time to hopefully stop the Overlord.

They were all being hooked up into the machine while their Techno Weapons were being placed right behind them, with what they know now, this is their only chance to stop the Overlord.
"Once we're inside, what do we need to do?" Zane asked as Borg hooked them up to the system.

"To put it simply, you need to reboot the system. All source code travels through the heart of the main frame. Follow it, and you'll find a glowing activation point. The Techno Blades are the key's to activating the reboot and erase all corruption from the system." Borg instructed while they all took a deep breath.

"Uh.. can you put it more simply?" Kai asked again still finding that too confusing for him.

"Look for a big bright light, airhead, and put your weapon in it, got it?" Cole asked with a blunt tone which Kai understood.

"Got it... hey! I am not an airhead!" Kai replied taking note of that last remark.

"You totally are Kai." Spike said with a smirk which irritated him even more.

"Am not!" Kai shouted back to him who was chuckling from his reaction.

"All of you need to remember, I may have written the code, but he controls it. His turf, his rules. I'll do my best to keep you all hidden, but the longer you go unnoticed, the better chance you have in succeeding." Borg warned as Pixal was putting up their life monitor's in front of them digitally which Spike found pretty cool.

And as Pixal was about to go up to Zane, she wanted to wish him luck one more time before he goes into such a dangerous place.
"Be careful in there, please." Pixal said with a worried look while he gave her an assuring smile.

"I will come back to you." Zane assured once more which was enough for her before she placed the monitor in front of him to display his status before she backed up from them.

"Be careful in there dad, I'll do what I can to keep you all safe here." Allison said one last time as she held her spear while they braced themselves for this.

"Don't worry Allison, I will. But if anything happens to me, tell Twilight and the other's I'm sorry I couldn't make it back, but I was able to live a great life, raising you, and having great friends like Kai and everyone else here." Spike replied with a smile while he looked at the others who hoped that wouldn't happen.

"uh.. heh heh.. yeah, let's just try not to die in there." Jay said nervously while they looked up in the air as Borg prepared things.

"Prepare for entry!" Borg announced while he was going over to the main switch nearby.

"How do we know this will work, and not just disintegrate us instantly?" Kai asked with a worried look while the monitor's switched to the Digiverse again, and even Borg was unsure of how to answer that.

"Hmm.. I'm not sure, let's see." Borg replied before he activated the switch which began to digitize them all. Kai was starting to close his eyes upon feeling them all being transferred, and as the world around them was becoming nothing more then numbers and source code, Kai felt himself screaming as he felt himself entering it at insanely fast speeds.

"I hate technology!!!" Kai screamed again as they all were transferred into the Digiverse while Spike could be heard screaming too from the digitization.

"Celestia help us!!" Spike screamed as everything around them faded away and they felt themselves black out for a moment after going through such an experience.

Spike and everyone else feel themselves wake up after being digitized, as they all open they're eyes, they find themselves in what looks like Borg's office again, but.. something felt different about it.
"See? I told you it wouldn't work.." Kai said with disappointment as Spike gets out of his chair, and he doesn't see Allison, Borg, or Pixal here at all.

"Actually.. I think it did, the other's aren't here, look." Spike advised as he pointed to the monitor's which all had source code flowing down to somewhere. As Zane gets up, he looks at his hand and sees parts of it having source code too, which really confirmed it worked.

"This is most definitely the Digiverse." Zane confirmed while Spike looked amazed at the sight around them.

"We're actually in a video game.. this is the coolest thing ever!" Spike said with amazement while he and Jay laugh seeing how advanced things look around here.

"Tell me about it! Look outside! We're really here!" Jay shouted as they both went to the window to see the world they're in, and they look out the window, they see all of New Ninjago City within a digital state like the rest of this world, all the source cod they saw kept flowing down somewhere, and the sight of it was something to behold.

"It's like we're in a dream." Cole said with a smile as everyone grabbed they're Techno Blades to get things going.

"Alright, let's get moving, what do we do now that we're here?" Kai questioned while Zane thought over what to do.

"We know we can still get hurt in the Digiverse, so let's be careful as we focus on our task." Zane reminded while he took out his Techno Blade which activated upon being raised in the air, and everyone else did the same thing as they know what needs to be done.

"We have the keys, now let's find that activation port." Zane declared while they held them up in the air, ready to get going.

Back within the real world, Pythor and the Nindroids were currently trying to break through the walls surrounding the tower, and just as it looked like they were getting through, the citizens from earlier finally made it down there to hold them off.
"Our favorite shows, will continue!!" The postman shouted while he and the other citizens went to hold off the Nindroids from moving forward, but they didn't notice that Borg's robotic spider legs were still functional, and were sneaking they're way around them to get inside.

And as Lloyd was having his Golden power be drained still, he remembered the words Garmadon spoke to him moments before he was captured, trying his hardest not to let his power be taken.
"He who holds the power, holds a tremendous obligation. You must be prepared to handle this journey alone, even without me one day.." Garmadon's words echoed through his mind which made Lloyd try to hold onto as much of his power as the Overlord's body was almost complete.

"You are all alone.. Golden Ninja! Nothing can save you now!" Overlord mocked as he laughed like a maniac while Lloyd felt anger upon hearing it.

Back at the top of the tower, Pixel, Allison, and Borg were all monitoring everyone's vitals, and they all looked good so far with the task.
"Vitals are strong." Pixal reported while Allison kept her spear up for any sudden attacks.

"Nothing out of the ordinary right now, let's hope dad and the other's can hold on while in there." Allison said hopefully while they looked at the monitor.

"The Overlord hasn't detected them yet Allison, they should have the chance to move now." Borg replied while they kept working on things, not noticing that Borg's spider legs had made it inside in the distance..

Within the Digiverse, Spike and everyone else made they're way outside and were hanging on the ledge of a rooftop, while the sight of the digital world was amazing, they can't let that get in the way that they're in a dangerous area right now.
"Zane, any ideas so far?" Spike asked with concern while they looked over the edge below them.

"It appears all the source code is moving towards the same location, just like Borg said." Zane replied while they saw it all moving towards the bottom of the tower.

"Let's follow it." Kai suggested which Cole had trouble figuring out.

"It's easier said then done, how do we make it down there?" Cole asked while looking at a platform far below them, and Jay easily figured out a way to get there.

"Aren't you forgetting we're in a video game Cole? We can do anything here! Like this!" Jay screamed before he jumped off the ledge and screamed with joy while he used an advanced move to make a perfect landing at the bottom which he laughed at.

"Yeah! Video games rule!!" Jay cheered while Spike was completely amazed seeing it.

"How did you do that?!" Kai shouted with a worried look while looking down towards him.

"Just imagine it!" Jay shouted back to them which gave them all an idea.

"Ninja go!!" Spike screamed as he, Zane and Cole jumped off next, Spike used his Spinjitzu to hop off multiple platforms nearby, and he soon landed down skillfully near Jay just as Cole and Zane did too.

"Haha! This is the coolest day ever!" Spike shouted with joy while he gave Jay a high five. Kai took a deep breath and tried recalling what Jay just said in order to catch up.

"Just.. imagine.." Kai said calmly as he tried to think, but that ended up making his head inflate like a balloon which made him scream with fear on what's happening.

"You gotta keep your mind clear Kai!" Jay advised while Cole chuckled seeing that.

"Check out the airhead up there Spike! I kinda like that look!" Cole joked which Spike laughed at.

"He totally is an airhead." Spike replied while they looked up to him who still didn't jump.

"Stop being so self conscious of yourself and just jump!" Jay shouted with a more annoyed tone which worried Kai a bit, but as he leaned over it a bit too much, that made him fall over on accident which made him almost fall off the whole building, but just before he fell down near the platform everyone was on, he suddenly floated back up to them.

"He really is an airhead!" Jay joked which Spike laughed at, and they soon saw Kai's head return back to normal before they helped him on the platform.

Borg was currently monitoring they're progress, he could see how well they're doing so far, and felt hopeful they can make it through.
"They're doing it, they're mastering the digital world! I need to buy them more time!" Borg said hopefully while he tried to keep working, but that's when his robotic legs finally lunged at him which pinned him down to the ground, and he screamed with fear upon seeing them inside.

"Ahh! My legs! They're back!" Borg shouted with fear just as Allison tail whipped the legs off him, and she and Nya tried doing they're best to hold them back from attacking everyone else.

"Stay with them! If the Overlord finds them in the system, it's all over!" Nya shouted to Pixal while Allison was struggling a bit to hold them back.

"Why did you have to get spider legs of all things Borg?!" Allison shouted with frustration as Pixal tried to check they're status, but she soon had a really worried look after finding something bad.

"The Overlord has already found them.." Pixal said with fear which made them gasp with fear hearing it.

"Dad.." Allison said with fear while she looked back at him and the others, who don't know of the danger that's coming for them.

Back in the Digiverse, Spike and the other's were looking over the platform again to find out where to go, and Cole could see the exact place all the source code was going to.
"Everything is flowing down to the bottom of the building. " Cole informed while they saw it go all the way to the very entrance of the tower.

"The ashes of the Overlord!" Kai said in realization while they all looked down at it.

"You mean when Lloyd and Spike defeated him in the ultimate battle?" Jay questioned while Spike shook his head knowing that's where it began.

"It must be where it all started." Zane suggested as they all stood together to see it.

"It makes sense it would start all the way there, with how long we spent without fighting any bad guys over the years, he must've slowly reformed what little remained of him after me and Lloyd combined our powers to destroy him." Spike theorized with a look of concern.

"How long do you think it took until he was able to reform what little remained of him?" Zane questioned while he turned to him.

"I don't know Zane.. but if Lloyd and I knew he was trying to reform himself during the last few years, we would've made sure he doesn't come back." Spike said as he clutched his claws with frustration thinking over it.

"Don't worry Spike, if that's where he began to reform, we'll make sure to destroy it for good. We're almost there guys, let's go." Kai replied as he started to take a step near the ledge along with the others. But just as they did, the ground below them suddenly began to pull them in like it was quicksand, and everyone quickly got very scared while they tried getting out of there.

"Who's imagining this?!" Jay shouted with fear while they struggled as hard as they could to escape.

"I don't think any of us are! I.. can't get out!" Spike shouted with fear as they were being pulled in even more by the second.

"Neither can we! What's going on?!" Zane shouted with fear on what's going on. But as they all tried escaping, they could see the Overlord appear above them after he detected them in this world, and he was set on making sure they don't survive here.

"You all think you can come into my world.. and get rid of me?! You may have defeated me in your world, Spike.. but this.. is my world!!" Overlord shouted with malice while glaring directly towards Spike.

"Zane! Is there any way to get out of this?!" Spike shouted as they were sinking even further, while Zane tried reaching for a nearby crane that was just nearby, he wasn't close enough to reach it, making they're situation even more dire.

"I can't reach the crane! We're stuck!" Zane shouted with terror while Jay looked terrified hearing it.

"I have a feeling this is it guys!" Jay shouted with despair while they kept on sinking deeper.

Pixal was able to detect all they're vitals were at risk, and she instantly knew what was going on upon seeing it.
"The ninja! They're being consumed by the corrupted program!" Pixal shouted with worry while everyone else was holding back the robotic legs.

"We're all a bit.. consumed!" Nya shouted with frustration while she and Allison tried pushing them back, and to make it even worse, the postman from before was at the front camera to deliver news that made things worse.

"We couldn't stop them! They're coming up! This time.. the postman does not deliver!" He shouted with fear before a Nindroid tackled him down which made the camera go to static, and Pixal tried going up to the computers to hack into the system as fast as she could.

"Nya! Go hold the Nindroids back! I'll try stopping these.. stupid legs!" Allison shouted as they saw them marching up the stairs.

"Got it! Be careful!" Nya shouted back before she let go and ran off to hold them back

Spike and everyone else screamed as they had almost finally sunk into the ground which would've killed them all, but Kai tried one last desperate attempt to reach out for something to save them, and just before he was pulled in with everyone else, Pixal was finally able to take control of the crane nearby, and she quickly used it to grab into Kai's hand, and pull him, and everyone else out who all gasped for air after finally being freed.

"Oh thank goodness!" Spike said with relief as they all landed on the down safely, and they looked up to the crane while Pixal still had control over it.

"I was able to alter the corrupted code for a short time, but hurry, I can only resist him for so long!" Pixal warned just before the crane exploded which left them alone to finish this.

"We have to get to that activation port, and fast!" Cole shouted to the others while they kneeled down to the ledge in front of them.

"Guess it's all down hill from here!" Jay shouted in response just before the ground suddenly shook which made them all scream with surprise.

"Just because your friend thinks she can change the rules.. doesn't mean I can't play the same game!" Overlord shouted to them as the entire world began flipping upside down.

"You think this will stop us Overlord?! Your just delaying things! We will destroy you for good, just like me and Lloyd did years ago!" Spike shouted with anger while he looked up to him.

"Not this time.." Overlord mocked with a sinister tone which made Spike even more angry,

"Everyone hang on!!" Spike screamed while the entire world flipped upside down completely from the Overlord's corruption, all of them barely saving themselves from one of the platforms nearby as debris from the digital city fell towards them.

"Look out Jay!" Zane shouted as they all ducked down to avoid a falling car which crashed into a window nearby.

"Is everyone okay?!" Cole shouted as they all saw things from upside down now which made things harder for them all.

"We're fine! We need to get up there now! Any ideas?" Spike questioned while he used his Crystal powers to shoot down multiple cars flying to them.

"Everyone, get into the building, now!" Zane instructed while pointing towards the open window below, and they all quickly jumped inside it to have a safer place to keep moving.

"Well that gives us a new perspective.." Kai said with relief while the camera flips upside down again as we come back into the real world.

Pythor and the rest of the Nindroids along with Cryptor and Tech Wu were making they're way to the top to stop this, but Nya was soon seen standing in front of them all, looking ready to fight them all.
"I'll give you one chance to surrender!" Nya warned as she stood against them all which Cryptor laughed at.

"Cute." Cryptor mocked which angered Nya as her wrist device was beeping while she stood against them.

"I hate it when people call me cute." Nya said with anger as she saw her suit was flying towards her from outside as the Nindroids were all about to attack her. But Nya's Samurai X suit soon flew in through the windows and crashed through them all, quickly picking up Nya and placing her inside it while the Nindroids were knocked down.

"Would you look at that? You made me break a nail." Nya mocked while she held up her suits claws as the Nindroids got back up, all of them soon charged to her and tried fighting her off, and as Nya did her best to take them off, Pythor and Tech Wu were making they're way to the top.

Spike and the others were climbing they're way through Borg tower to reach the top in the Digiverse, but it wasn't easy as they had limited time left to stop the Overlord.
"We can't keep climbing like this, we need a way to reach the source faster!" Spike said with a serious look as they climbed into another room.

"Who says we can keep climbing Spike? Why climb.. when we can do this?!" Jay shouted in response as he quickly ran to the window nearby and jumped out of it, he quickly drew his Techno Blade and screamed with joy while he fell on the side of the building, and he was able to reform his vehicle from before which began driving up the side of the building to the top.

"Okay, that kid plays way to many video games." Kai said with surprise while they saw him driving upwards.

"Jay's right! Forget climbing!" Cole shouted as he quickly jumped out the window too and formed his mech with ease, and he quickly began charging after Jay to reach the top.

"Who needs climbing, when you can drive?!" Spike shouted too as he jumped next, and he soon formed his hover bike again which landed on the building's side, and he cheered as he turned around and drove upwards, leaving only Kai and Zane next.

"Alright.. I can do this.. " Kai told himself before he jumped next, he tried to form his fighter jet he used before, but he wasn't focused enough to fully form it, and it quickly disappeared soon after which made Kai scream with terror as he began falling down again.

"I can't do it! I can't do it, I can't do it!!" Kai shouted with terror as he kept on falling, and Zane didn't waste another second to jump after him, he quickly formed his hover copter from before too and managed to catch him just in time.

"Don't worry Kai, I got you!" Zane assured while he quickly flew after the other's.

"Let's get to the top!" Cole shouted with confidence as they all drove alongside eachother.

"You mean bottom!" Jay corrected as Spike cheered with joy after jumping down another ledge.

"Whatever works best! You ready guys?!" Spike shouted with confidence while looking at all of them.

"Ninja go!!" All of them shouted again as they made they're way towards the source at the top. They used they're vehicles weapons to blast any enemy's coming to them from above, making they're way closer to they're destination by the minute.

Borg and Allison were trying to hold back Borg's legs currently while everything was still going on, but things got even worse as they saw Pythor and Tech Wu had finally made it to the top.
"Oh no.." Borg said with fear while they saw them trying to attack the others. And Allison had no choice but to leave Borg to handle himself, she quickly drew her spear and slithered in front of Pythor to hold them both back.

"You aren't going anywhere near my dad, or my friends Pythor!" Allison shouted with anger while she held her weapon tightly.

"Oh, and what have we here? Aren't you the Anacondrai that dragon was taking care of? You've certainly grown since we last saw eachother." Pythor mocked while he tried attacking her, and Allison quickly blocked his weapon to hold him back.

"I got aged up just like my dad and Lloyd, I may have been raised by him and the ninja, but don't forget that I'm still an Anacondrai like you!" Allison shouted just as she turned invisible to catch Pythor off guard which did surprise him for a brief moment.

Pythor was soon smacked across the face and then thrown towards the wall nearby while Allison was still invisible, and as Tech Wu tried getting past Pixal, Borg noticed a Nindroid piloting another hover copter just outside the window, and he had a dreadful feeling on what it's here for.
"Pixal! Allison! Protect Spike and the Ninja!" Borg shouted as Pixal flipped in the air and kicked Tech Wu away, and Allison quickly used her tail to slam Pythor's face to the ground to hold him down just as she reappeared above him again. But just as she was holding him back, she gasped with terror as the Nindroid shot a latch onto Borg's back which began to drag him out of the room.

"Pixal, Allison.. it's all up to the two of you now!" Borg shouted one last time as he was dragged out of the room which horrified the both of them.

"Borg! No!!" Allison shouted with fear as he screamed upon being captured once again by the Nindroids, leaving only them alone to keep the other's safe for this mission.

Spike and everyone else were shooting they're way through dozens of fighter jets and corrupted machines that tried attacking them, driving up the tower while dozens of objects were falling to them.
"The data filter is in the ground! So the heart of the system must be behind it!" Cole shouted as they were just about to reach the source finally.

"Then let's be surgical about this!" Jay shouted with a serious look before they all shot missiles directly towards the top, and they finally blew a hole inside the ground which left a portal open for them now.

"Now's our chance! Let's go!" Spike shouted while they all went even faster to reach it.

"Ninja go!!" Everyone shouted again as they all jumped towards the source, and they finally made it inside it which lead them to where all the source doe was going.

Everyone landed down in a wide open area that was in the center of the whole world, as they're vehicles disappeared, they saw a tall tower just nearby which was still open for them to reach.
"The reboot activation port!" Jay shouted as they all looked up at it.

"It can't be that easy, can it?" Kai asked with concern upon seeing nothing was guarding it right now.

"Let's not waste any time to lose our chance, come on!" Spike shouted again while they all ran towards the tower, they saw the core right in front of them which was open for all of them to use, and they all drew they're Techno Blades one last time to hack into it.

"Let's hack this thing!" Kai declared while they all put they're blades together to finish it, with they're Techno Blades combined together, it started to make the core begin to spin around to begin the process, and they all quickly jumped across it to finish the Overlord.

"Ninja go!" Everyone shouted once again while they all stood together, and at that moment, they all saw the remains of the Overlord finally form in front of them, all as one last desperate attempt to stop them from erasing him for good.

"Enough! You may have beaten my program, but you cannot beat me.. in my world!!" Overlord shouted with malice as he stood against them all.

But as this happened, they all saw the activating port shoot a bright golden light towards the Overlord who caught it to prevent him from being erased, and he used it's power to knock all of them down which made them scream for a moment.

"He's blocking the reboot signal! We have to complete the circuit!" Zane informed while they quickly got up to stop this.

"We have to move him?!" Jay shouted with fear upon hearing this.

"We can try!" Kai shouted in response while Spike's hands glowed as he prepared to use his powers again.

"I'll try holding him back! You try getting around him!" Spike shouted as he ran towards the Overlord with anger, Spike made a battle cry as he shot multiple Crystal blasts at the tentacles that were forming around him, and the Overlord quickly blocked them without any effort.

"You may have defeated me before, but you were with the Golden Ninja, this time.. you don't have his power to defeat me!!" Overlord shouted with fury while he moved the tentacles around to push everyone back.

As this battle was happening, Allison and Pixal were trying to hold back Pythor and Tech Wu from harming anyone, but Pixal accidentally knocked Tech Wu right nearby the button which could shut the entire program down.

"Turn off the master switch!" Pythor shouted as he tried getting past Allison who was doing well with holding him back.

"No! They will all be trapped within the program forever!" Pixal begged while Pythor glared at her.

"Just like how they left me in the Devourer!" Pythor countered which made Allison hiss hearing it.

"The same monster which YOU released! Your the reason your like this now! This is all.. your.. fault!!" Allison shouted as she raised back a fist and punched Pythor in the chest, and that sent him flying into the wall nearby hard, even making an impact crater just from how strong she was.

"Ugh.. turn.. off the switch.. now!" Pythor said weakly while he tried getting back up. But just before Tech Wu could do it, the elevator door opened up to reveal what looked like a Nindroid just behind them, but the figure quickly ran across the room and grabbed Tech Wu without any mercy, and he quickly threw him out the window to give them time.

While Pixal and Allison were both in shock of what this figure just did, as he turned around to face them, he took off his mask and revealed himself to be, Garmadon.
"Garmadon! Your alive!" Allison said with relief as they saw he made his way back here.

"But your oath! You said you'd never fight!" Pythor reminded as he was struggling to move, and Garmadon looked very furious as he looked towards Pythor.

"When you took my son from me.. all bets were off!" Garmadon countered before he quickly ran to him and kicked him in the neck, Allison followed that up by tail whipping him in the back which sent him rolling across the room near the window, but before they could finish him off, Pythor used what strength he had to get up to try and escape.

"Your all too late! Your son's already ours Garmadon!" Pythor shouted one last time before he jumped out of the window, and he was quickly saved by a hover copter which flew right below him and flew off while Pythor laughed mockingly as he left them alone.

Allison sighed in relief seeing him go, and as she looked towards Garmadon, she was really glad to see he's okay.
"Thanks for the save Garmadon, I'm sorry about Lloyd, if we were all there.. we could've stopped him." Allison said with guilt while Garmadon looked over the side, and he saw Tech Wu had landed on a platform nearby, meaning he could still be a threat to stop it.

"The important thing is that you and the others have the chance to destroy the Overlord for good this time! You and Pixal need to make sure everyone can stop him! Or else all of Ninjago is doomed!" Garmadon instructed with a serious look while Allison turned towards Spike and the others.

"What are you gonna do?" Allison asked with concern as Garmadon leaned towards the window.

"Settle a score.." Garmadon answered before he jumped out the window to face Tech Wu, he quickly ran across the walls before jumping in the air, and he soon landed down on the platform he was on, there was very little room to fight on it, but they weren't going to let it stop them.

"Sorry brother, it ends now!" Garmadon declared while he clutched his fists.

"Sweet dreams.." Tech Wu mocked as they went to fight eachother one last time.

Spike and everyone else were trying they're best to face against the Overlord, but as hard as they tried, they couldn't do anything against him in this world.
"Fools! All of your existence.. you've been powered by a lie, that the good guys.. always win!" Overlord mocked while he threw Jay towards them which slammed him into the others.

"Sadly, they don't. I have the power now, the Technology has made me infinite!!" Overlord shouted with malice while they all tried dodging the tentacles around him.

"The Golden Ninja.. is.. mine!!" Overlord shouted once again while Spike used his Crystal powers to try and push them back.

Lloyd was almost fully drained of his power, and the Overlord's new body was almost complete, but Lloyd tried the hardest to hold back, recalling his father's words, there was one thing he could tell himself to fight back.
"I am not alone.. I.. am not.. alone!" Lloyd told himself which everyone could hear from within the Digiverse.

"You are not alone!" Zane shouted back as Lloyd tried fighting back.

"We're with you Lloyd! Always!" Spike shouted from the Digiverse too which Lloyd could hear too.

"I.. am not alone!" Lloyd shouted once again while everyone stood against the Overlord, and after hearing it, Zane finally realized what needs to be done.

"Your wrong Overlord. Good guys may not always win, but they never give up!" Zane declared while he and Spike stood together to hold him back.

"No matter how dire it is, even against impossible odds, we will never give up! I will not let you harm my friends, or my family!!" Spike screamed as he felt his body overflow with a similar Golden Power like Lloyds, Zane's body began to glow gold too, and they finally felt the power they needed to stop this.

"If we can't move him.. let's go around him!" Zane shouted as they both ran over the tentacles.

"Zane, Spike, your both golden! How is that possible?!" Kai shouted with surprise while Spike shot a golden Crystal blast at one of the tentacles and destroyed it in an instant.

"Zane, now!" Spike shouted as he grabbed Zane and threw him to the Overlord's body, and Zane quickly flipped above him and made it to the top of his head.

"Even in the darkness, we have the choice to reflect the light!" Zane shouted as he held his hand in the air, and the activation port sent another beam down towards him which Zane caught, and shot down to the ground.

"Cole! Get into the light!" Zane instructed which Cole understood. Lloyd's power was almost completely drained, and as the process was almost complete, Lloyd saw a hand begin to move from the place the Overlord is forming.

Cole quickly jumped over another tentacle, and his suit instantly became gold too after feeling the power rush through him, and he tried making his way to the light to reflect it next.
"Ha! Your a genius! Catch the light Jay!" Cole shouted as he threw the light to him next, and Jay rolled away from another attack as his suit changed into a golden color too, and he made his way to the next light to reflect it.

"Spike! It's your turn! Get the light now!" Jay shouted as he shot the light nearby Spike, and he quickly used his powers to hold back the Overlord's attacks before he did a backflip before he landed on the light himself.

"Kai! Your next! Hurry!" Spike shouted while he moved around the Overlord to help make it to the reboot signal.

The Overlord's body was nearing completion now, and they all had one last chance to stop him stop him before he escapes the Digiverse.
"I'm.. too big to fail now!" Overlord screamed while everyone tried holding they're positions.

"Come on Kai! You can do it! You just have to believe!" Jay encouraged as Kai struggled to become gold like everyone else.

"How can I? This is not my world!" Kai shouted in response as the Overlord looked down at im.

"Now, too little.. too late!" Overlord screamed as he leaned down to stop him yet again, and as Lloyd's power was almost drained, the Overlord's new body was almost formed, and was finally moving around with only a little more power being needed to complete it.

Garmadon and Tech Wu were fighting eachother across the platform high in the sky, and as Garmadon was being lured towards the edge nearby, Kai stood against the Overlord alone.

"I won't allow you to stop this!" Overlord screamed while Kai fell on his knees, feeling hopeless to stop him. And Garmadon was being pushed to the edge more and more by Tech Wu, and as Tech Wu delivered a kick to his face which almost sent him off the edge, Pixal and Allison could see Kai's monitor was beeping rapidly, almost going flatlined which horrified them both.

"Come on Kai! You can make it through this! Please!" Allison begged while they saw his monitor finally reach the flatline.

As Zane tried holding the power to keep reflecting the light, he could see the source code flow through him, and he tried using it to protect everyone.
"What Zane's powers.. truly allow.." Borg's words echoed again as his body glowed brightly, and after finally pulling through it, Kai felt the determination to keep moving.

"I allow.. myself!!" Kai screamed as he finally stood back up, his whole suit becoming gold just like everyone else's, and the light finally shot from Spike to Kai, and Kai was able to shoot the light into the reboot signal which finally began to reboot everything the Overlord's corrupted.

"System reboot, initiated." The computer system announced as the power began to destroy the Overlord.

"No.. no!!" Overlord screamed one last time before his body completely exploded, and Zane's body flew in the air as everything faded to white.

Back in the real world, the machines were about to finish off the citizens after pinning them down, but the system reboot finally restored all of them back to their original programming, and the mech's knocked away any Nindroids that were nearby to defend them, and all of the people of Ninjago began to cheer upon seeing everything be restored.
"They delivered!" The postman said proudly as they saw all the machines return to normal.

And just as Garmadon was about to be finished by Tech Wu, he was soon restored to his original form, not showing any robotic signs like before, and Wu gasped with surprise as he finally felt himself come to his senses.
"Brother?" Wu asked himself while he looked at his hands, but Garmadon couldn't hold on anymore, and as he finally lost his grip, and almost fell to his death, Wu quickly leaned down and caught him with his spare hand to save him.

"Brother." Garmadon said with a relieved look upon seeing he's back.

And as Nya was fighting off the Nindroids, they felt they're programing being restored as most of they're eyes were turning white.
"They rebooted the system! Set your power offline!" Cryptor ordered as he looked back at Nya one more time before he made his escape.

""I look forward to our second date." Cryptor mocked while all of them ran off, leaving Nya alone.

And after the system was completely rebooted, Pixal pressed the master switch again, and that made everyone's monitor's vanish before they finally began opening they're eyes again.
"I'm.. just.. Zane." Zane said with a smile as Pixal ran up to him and gave him a hug.

"Your back!" Pixal said with joy while Allison helped Spike out of his chair and gave him a hug too while Nya ran into the room.

"You did it!" Nya cheered as everyone got up and felt relieved that it's all done.

"I knew you'd do it dad!" Allison said with joy while Spike held her tightly, feeling nothing but joy that they've rebooted the system.

"I'm not leaving you Allison, I'll always find my way back to you." Spike said with a smile while everyone smiled as Nya gave her brother a hug seeing them come back.

"You all did it." Wu said proudly while he and Garmadon entered the room, relieving everyone as they saw he was back to normal.

"Sensei your back!" Jay said with joy while Pixal ran up to check the system's status.

"I knew you'd be back!" Kai said with joy seeing he's okay.

"So the system is completely clear?" Zane asked hopefully while turning to Pixal, and she looked very happy to give them the report.

"There is not sign of the Digital Overlord, he has been erased." Pixal informed which everyone cheered at after hearing it, but as he looked around the room, Garmadon remembered one thing which was still very important.

"But what about Lloyd?" Garmadon asked with concern for what's happening with him.

Lloyd was weakly crawling his way out of the collapsing ship which was losing power after the Overlord was erased, he was able to open the nearby door to help him get outside, and he tried using any strength he had to escape the ship.
"Losing altitude, impact in T minutes.. 10.. 9, 8, 7,6.." The ship counted down as Lloyd came upon the entrance of the machine, and as it was falling down to the sea, Lloyd fell out of the ship into the sea as the ship crashed into the waters after losing power.

As the camera pins down within the sea, Lloyd is seen floating down in the water as the ship sinks to the bottom of the sea from the crash. And everyone within the tower was praying they could get something from Lloyd, all of them were holding out hopes that he'd be okay. And after a few moments, Lloyd finally opened his eyes again, and he used his strength to swim to the surface, to find somewhere safe.

Spike and everyone else were all silent as they hoped Lloyd was still alive.
"Lloyd, are you there?" Pixal asked with hope while they looked at the monitor for a response, and after moments of silence, they finally got a response.

"I'm here! I'm alright!" Lloyd shouted from the speaker which relieved everyone after hearing him.

"Yes! I knew he'd make it!" Spike said with joy while everyone cheered seeing he's okay.

"Son! Where are you?" Garmadon asked with a worried look.

"Dad?! Your alive! I'm not alone. I'm in a remote village." Lloyd reported from the other side which Garmadon quickly tried to track.

"Stay where you are, we're coming to pick you up!" Garmadon assured as they could hear Lloyd sounded exhausted on the speaker.

"Good.. because my powers.. a little spent." Lloyd joked which everyone laughed at after hearing it. But as this happened, Pixal looked back to Borg's wheelchair, feeling regret for him being kidnapped once again.

"Don't worry, we'll find him. And when we stop Pythor, all of this will be over." Zane assured while he put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her.

"I.. hope not." Pixal replied as she held his hand, feeling glad that they managed to do it.

But far below the sea, despite it being seemingly destroyed, the Overlord's ship was seen at the bottom of the ocean, and as a single fish swims by it to see what could be inside it, a single hand begins to emerge from it, barely being fully formed, but was still able to move freely after his presumed defeat.
"I am.. free. Free!!" Overlord screamed as the hand began to rise upwards..
