The real reason Wu almost never uses his powers is because the Writers of Destiny intentionally nerf tf outta him.
Wu’s powers are incredibly busted and had he actually tapped into his Dragon/Oni heritage, some events would’ve ended quicker than they should’ve, or wouldn’t even occur at all.
To be fair, they did this with Garmadon too at first. Though to a slightly lesser extent.
But then it got to the point where it was less for the greater good and more just nerfing him for no reason.
Scribe #1: "Uhm, with all due respect Master Writer, why does only Lloyd need to embrace his Oni side? Wu is also part Oni, even more Oni than Lloyd is."
Scribe #2: "Also why does he not even TRY to achieve Dragon Form? I feel like giving him mechanical wings instead is some form of insult. Plus he isn’t even using the essence of Creation. Like, at all."
Scribe #3: "And we’ve been letting Garmadon use his powers willy-nilly for over a year now. Why do we continue to handicap Wu?"
Master Writer: "At this point it’s just for the bit."
THE PLOT HOLES WERE JUST BECAUSE OF THE WRITERS OF DESTINY TRUST....... THIS IS A PERFECT SHOW WITH ZERO ACTUAL PLOT HOLES!! Just don't look at crystalized, time travel, Cole's reflection, crystalized, airjitzu, time travel, kaiju protocol. just kaiju protocol.

Hold up- Garmadon’s getting ANOTHER comic series?!?!
Deadass?!
Yeah no this mf definitely getting greedy as hell. I adore him but dayum.
Crazy how Wu only got ONE comic with him as the focus (as far as I know). Thats some bs right there.
On the one hand it deeply bothers me how little Wu gets comparatively, given he's just as important as his brother, and yet on the other I DO sadly get it. Garmadon's plot of grappling with his worst impulses and desires and how that has changed him IS interesting. Do I think it warrants him taking the spotlight of 4 chapter books and 3 comic mini series? Ehhhhhhhh. Do I think if they continue to expand on it and take it in a new route, it could actually be really good? Hopefully lol. But ye I wish we got more of Wu lol.
Okay! Some of them I thought of myself, others I made with a friend of mine.
I should let you know the basic premise first. Basically the Ninja are fighting a bunch of bad guys (I’m still working on this part) and an accident leads to the Ninja and Wu getting stuck in KnY. The villains are also there, and the team has to find them and stop them. But they also have to deal with the demons and Muzan. Eventually they team up with the Demon Slayers to stop both parties.
The element of creation is extremely effective against demons in KnY. After all, demons are creatures of destruction, and the best way to confront destruction is with creation. But the demons in KnY don’t have nearly as much resistance as the Oni do. Because of this, Wu and the Ninja’s powers are also extremely effective against demons. The Ninja control the four elements of creation, plus Lloyd since his element is basically a combination of all four. Wu is literally the Master of Creation. Nya’s powers is the only one that isn’t lethal to demons, but still really helpful when fighting them.
The Ninja become heavily feared among demons. Wu especially, cause the man is literally the Master of Creation. Not to mention the fact he’s part Oni and Dragon. And he’s just a force to be reckoned with in general. He’s basically the Grim Reaper to them. Muzan tries to find information on them but can’t find jack shit 'cause jokes on him, they’re from another realm lmao.
Sucks to be Muzan cause after they see the shit he does they got beef with him and they ain’t leaving 'til he goes down.
Literally everyone is confused by their existence. Wu and Lloyd especially because they seem human but they kinda aren’t? Like, the Hashira, the Trio, and demons can’t tell that they aren’t fully human. Wu ain’t even human, he’s actually part demon and dragon, apparently. Same goes for Lloyd except he’s also part human. Everyone is confused.
Jay and Tengen would be besties. Straight up. They’re both really flashy and flamboyant. Tengen would like Jay’s clever quips and creativeness. (People tend to forget this man is an inventor). They make the most dramatic entrances and Jay often uses his powers to make them even more epic. They make the craziest combo moves, including but not limited to "Human Stun Gun". The name speaks for itself.
Cole, Kyojuro, and Mitsuri are also besties. Brought together by their never ending love of food. Super strong and super foody.
Zane and Shinobu hit it off.
Wu is the crafty old man everyone knows not to fuck with.
Lloyd joins Tanjiro’s friend group because I say so. Teaches them Spinjitsu and Airjitsu.
Lloyd and Zane make their own Breathing Styles.
Wu and Kagaya are besties.
The Ninja have their Golden Weapons (which aren’t powerless in this AU), so they use the Tornado of Creation to make stuff they need but don’t have in the primitive timeline they’re in. Because of this, the Demon Slayer Corps becomes more technologically advanced than the rest of the world.
I’m still working on this AU and it’s not fully thought out yet, but I enjoy talking about it with my friend a lot. We'll come up with more stuff in the future.
I’d love to hear your thoughts!
This ended up a bit long, so under the cut it goes-
1. Interesting things to note is that the oni in Ninjago are closer to the western iteration of demons (from what I could tell, at least) while in KnY, they're pretty much a kind of youkai. With that said, the oni in KnY are weak to the power of the sun and since there isn't much about the ones in Ninjago being weak to the sun as far as I can remember, they get some degree of resistance. This could imply that there's something about the tornado of creation and the element itself that replicate whatever the sun has going on that the oni in KnY are weak to.
Also, with the whole thing in Seabound about the element of water, I feel like that would have something to do with it not being lethal since it didn't actually originate from the FSM and creation
Idk if it was intentional on your part, but there are interesting connections to be made there with the sun, creation, and light
2. Fear of the unknown is quite a powerful thing, especially when there's a whole bunch of people that very much Do Not Exist in that world or even operate the same
3. The thing about Muzan is that he is very punchable and manages to be the center of beef skxbdjvf
4. Shgdjghgs their vibes are Wack. I feel like Inosuke would be doubly confused when trying to sense them because it. doesn't exactly seem natural to him.
5. Oh yeah DEFINITELY! And Jay already has experience in flashiness and showmanship that would quickly grab Tengen's attention considering his stint as a show host that one time. Jay's got the charm too
6. Cole would probably come off as a bit serious at first, but as soon as they start talking, they'll definitely hit it off nicely! They just have those friendly vibes
7. With Zane and Shinobu, I feel like they'd probably take a look at each other, nod, and refuse to elaborate further
8. That man has mischief in his blood and was definitely not the responsible sibling everyone thinks he is. He's a gremlin with experience and a poker face backing him up
9. Lloyd needs more friends close to his age skdfbsihf Tanjiro is gonna end up with an extreme water wheel at this rate if he masters those techniques and knowing him, he will attempt to get Lloyd to teach him. Inosuke learns it just to one-up everyone and possibly turn into a helicopter
10. Lloyd already incorporates a bunch of stuff to his fighting style by virtue of having multiple teachers with their own combat preferences, so he likely eventually ends up throwing in techniques. With how many influences there are, an entirely new breathing technique is plausible. Zane on the other hand, probably tweaks one of the techniques to better suit him that it just branches off
11. As they should
Also, the dynamic tho– an old man with too much time, and a young man who's constantly running out of it, both carrying wisdom and the weight of other people's lives
12. I feel like they're gonna end up speedrunning the industrial revolution going on at this rate djdbsjvf
There seems to be a lot of thought put into this and I'm kinda curious to see where you'll take this, hehe
You think Lloyd can shoot lasers out of his eyes? Like, what if he just focused his power into his eyes and shot energy beams out of them?
🤔
Idk, anything is possible at this point, might as well
I'd imagine he would think laser eyes would be cool and realize he might be able to do it if he tried hard enough. Cut to him violently glaring at a paper cup for 10 minutes
