These are the relationships of the Sky Pirate, Nadakhan.

Family

Khanjikhan

“What was it you once said? "A captain always goes down with his ship." The balance is in your hands. Avenge us!”

— Khanjikhan to Nadakhan, "Enkrypted"

Nadakhan's father bestowing the Djinn Blade to him.

Khanjikhan was Nadakhan's father. He disowned his son after he left Djinjago to explore Ninjago as a pirate. Nadakhan never saw his father again after he was trapped in the teapot by Soto. After he was freed, Nadakhan went back to see his realm was falling apart. Khanjikhan met his son and reflected on how fitting it was that he returned after his home was dying. Nadakhan reconciled with his father long enough for Khanjikhan to bestow the Djinn Blade and the task of avenging their world. Nadakhan accepted and began terrorizing Ninjago to avenge his father's death and to rebuild Djinjago. However in the end he failed and was sealed away.

Love Interest

Delara

“I can now wish all that we ever dreamed of. I can wish you a feast. Wish you luxury. Wish you...romance. Here I stand before my ancestors, the last Djinn King. Our world may have been destroyed, but we will rise again.”

— Nadakhan to Delara, "The Way Back"

Nadakhan and Delara

Delara joined the sky pirates in their early days and eventually fell in love with Nadakhan. But after a battle between Captain Soto and Nadakhan, Nadakhan was trapped in the Teapot of Tyrahn. Delara eventually died before Nadakhan escaped and he was devastated to learn of her demise.

Nadakhan initially mistook Nya for Delara but he developed the plan to marry her in order to gain the power of infinite wishes. After doing so, he brought Delara's soul from the Departed Realm and had her possess Nya with the lovers happy at their reunion.

Friends

Flintlocke (formerly)

“Flintlocke. As my most loyal first mate, let me be the first to welcome you. I know you'd been marooned for far too long.”

— Nadakhan to Flintlocke, "Enkrypted"

Nadakhan and Flintlocke

Flintlocke is the only person Nadakhan considers a friend.

In their reunion, the two were pleased to see one another after their banishment. Eventually, Flintlocke became suspicious of his captain's secrecy and when he realized what Jay warned him about Nadakhan goal to obtain infinite wishes, he attempted mutiny and helped the ninja defeat Nadakhan.

Sky Pirates (formerly)

The Sky Pirates were Nadakhan's former crew. Nadakhan released them from their banishment before he released Flintlocke. Dogshank, Doubloon, Monkey Wretch, and Clancee were very loyal to Nadakhan, agreeing to go to Djinjago with him and building themselves a new home. Eventually the Sky Pirates realized the debts Nadakhan fell to and Dogshank help the Ninja defeat Nadakhan.

Enemies

Captain Soto

Nadakhan has had a long history with Soto.

Many years ago, Soto attacked Nadakhan and Nadakhan was trapped in the Teapot of Tyrahn while banishing his crew. Nadakhan eventually captured Soto's ship, Misfortune's Keep and used it as his base for the Sky Pirates.

Ninja

The ninja are Nadakhan's main enemies.

Nadakhan learned of their threat when researching the city history archive. For that reason, he impersonated them and framed the ninja for crimes they didn't commit and was pleased to hear they were locked away in Kryptarium Prison. He gained a vendetta against them when learning of the destruction of his world, which occurred because of the ninja's victory over the Preeminent and destroyed the Cursed Realm (the twin realm of his).

After the ninja escaped, he sought them out to trap them in his sword and get stronger. He played on Kai's heart for knowledge on his father before trapping him. He found a worthy adversary in Zane because of his strategy and noted how he gave him a challenge until he defeated him by deleting P.I.X.A.L.. His main arch-enemy of the group was Jay played on who his love for Nya that shares the appearance of Delara but was unable to get him to break. He also captured Nya and married her to gain infinite wishes for himself and had Delara possess Nya.

In the end, they stopped him from destroying Ninjago at the end of season six with his actions being undone by Jay's final wish to restore Ninjago that caused Nadakhan to be trapped again. Only Jay and Nya remembers their experiences with Nadakhan. It is unknown if the other ninjas have regained their memories of him, since they have experiences deja vu on the matters.
