Captain Soto

Captain Soto is the leader of a band of pirates, and the original captain of the Destiny's Bounty.

History
Two hundred years ago, Soto and his crew sailed the seas of Ninjago, eventually defeating the Sky Pirates and their captain, Nadakhan. Soto imprisoned Nadakhan in the Teapot of Tyrahn while his crew was marooned across the Sixteen Realms. Sometime later, the Bounty accidentally crashed into a rock, resulting in the deaths of Soto and his crew.

Many years later, Lord Garmadon forged the Golden Weapons into a single weapon, which he used to accidentally resurrect Soto and his men. The pirates attacked Garmadon and the Serpentine before taking the Bounty and terrorizing Ninjago City. Fortunately, the ninja managed to stop them, leading Soto and his men to eventually be locked away in Kryptarium Prison.

Around the time Clouse freed Nadakhan from the Teapot of Tyrahn, the ninja were framed for being criminals and were imprisoned in Kryptarium. While there, Soto told them of his past with Nadakhan and how the Djinn could be weakened. The ninja later escaped Kryptarium alongside Soto, and they continued on their quest. After they were all trapped in the Djinn Blade, and Nya was captured by Nadakhan, Jay formed a rag-tag team to raid Djinjago, with Soto being a member. The ninja managed to weaken Nadakhan, causing New Djinjago to collapse onto the city below. Before further damage could be done, Jay's final wish reversed recent events, putting Soto back in prison with no memory of the events.

Eventually, Soto alongside The Mechanic and Ultra Violet escaped Kryptarium, making his current status unknown
