Zugu
Zugu was one of the two generals of the Anacondrai Cultists , who oversaw the production of the goods in the noodle factory . Zugu was extremely strong, often playing the drums during the Tournament of Elements while managing the Elemental Masters as they were put to work in the noodle factory. After they escaped and rallied against Chen, Zugu helped to complete the spell that transformed him and his allies into fake Anacondrai . . Zugu and Chen's army attacked Ninjago , later fighting their foes at the Corridor of Elders . When Garmadon sacrificed himself, the original Anacondrai generals banished Zugu and the cultists to the Cursed Realm . Later, Nya drowned the Preeminent , the physical manifestation of the Cursed Realm. With the realm destroyed, Zugu died and his spirit went to the Departed Realm . Some time after his demise, a statue of Zugu's Anacondrai form was placed in the Ninjago Museum of History . . On the Day of the Departed , Cole accidentally opened the Departed Realm, and the spirits of the ninja 's old enemies escaped and possessed their statues. Chen allied with Zugu and Eyezor and confronted Kai and Nya , who fled on their Raider Cycles. During the chase, Zugu's Condrai Crusher ran under a tree branch, destroying his statue and sending his spirit back to the Departed Realm. .
