Meanwhile in The Hidden World, Toothless assembled all the dragons to anounce that they will leave The Hidden World to meet their human friends, so they left their homeworld. On their way, Hiccup and Berkians saw Toothless and the dragons, relieved to meet them again.

In Nighttime both Hiccup and Toothless had nightmares about Grimmel's Deathgrippers, they woke up, Hiccup tells Toothless that he wished he should've saved rather than electrocuting them. The next morning, the Berkian boat fleet and the dragons were soon attacked by none other than Flame, he finally found Toothless and they both fought each other, giving him an advantage as he fights against Toothless in water, but Toothless was saved when Hiccup and the Berkians disoriented and knocked out Flame using Eret and Zephy's new cannon, giving them time to escape, they came across Berk, their old 7-generation island, but they were forced to leave when they were attacked by the new dragon species, the Thrillseekers, continuing their way.

They soon arrived The Glow Peace Island, an island full of village that glows. Hiccup then meets the chieftans in the Great Hall to discuss about peace treaty and the coexistence between mankind and dragonkind. Somtime later, Valka and Eret give advices to Hiccup that "loneliness can lead to a dark path" if he doesn't spend time with Toothless, Zephyr overheard to conversation and asked her father if he, she, Nuffink and Toothless spend time flying together, which they did as they spend time flying around the Glow Peace Island but were ambushed by a Whispering Death, but Toothless quickly defeats it, but Hiccup falls into a hole, where the cave is full of glowing cave paintings, so Zephyr and Nuffink followed him, but Zephyr found one cave painting made her interested so they took it and showed it to their friends, none of them knew about it, only Gobber, Valka and Eret were familiar with the cave painting, with Gobber and Valka explaining the history of the first dragon ever to exist thousands of years ago, and Eret explains the menacing appearance and the unique abilities and the tactics, but the dragon himself never found any of his kind, leaving him in isolation, making him desiring to reshape the planet and eradicate all life, he killed millions of dragons, causing destruction everywhere, until the ancient dragon warriors stood up and sealed him in the mountain, which terrified Hiccup, Astrid, Zephyr and Nuffink, Fishlegs, Snotlout and the twins.

sometimes later, Flame, the same Nightgripper, arrived at a small island where he found a dragon stuck, but he freed him, Flame was reminded by the memories of his siblings, decided to rest before going to hunt down Toothless. Later, Hiccup was drawing a dragon, Flame, trying to figure out what he is, until he realised that he was one of Grimmel's Deathgrippers who survived the lighting explosion, but Flame suddenly finds the Glow Peace Island, but Toothless, despite Zephyr's and Hiccup's plead, chose to challenge him, they both fought each other, but Toothless dives and recharges his Plasma Blast, and Flame readies his Heat-Ray Breath, at the last second, both of them unleashed their breath abilities, creating the explosion and sending them both flying.

Flame came out victorious and was gonna kill Toothless, only to stop after seeing Toothless' family, Light Fury and the Night Light children, watching in horror. Seeing the impact of his actions, Flame spared Toothless, but both of them suddenly were captured and were put in the prison by the chieftans. Hiccup argues with the chieftans, telling them to released them both, but the cheiftans tell Hiccup that they put them in prison because they were causing destruction to their village during the fight, Hiccup told them that it was his fault that he didn't save the Deathgrippers, but the chieftans tell him that they'll release them once everything starts to calm down, but they were interrupted by the Thrillseekers, who followed the Berkians, but the Thrillseekers were forced to leave, as the ground begin to shake.

In prison, Flame was drawing his siblings, showing it to Toothless, as Toothless also draws his current family, both begin to sympathize with each other, leading Flame to forgive Toothless. Later, the mountain begins to break, as a dragon, Death Havoc Wreaker, the first dragon, begins to wreak havoc on the village, the dragon army were fighting him, but Death Havoc Wreaker overpowered them all when he ate the eels and emitted a powerful, killing half of the dragon army as they fall, forcing the surviving half to retreat. Both Flame and Toothless sense a threat, so they begin to work together to fight the guards out of the prison as they challenge each other in a friendly competition, they soon escaped the prison, but they were horrified to see Death Havoc Wreaker, they both begin to fight him, but they were proved to be no match to him. Death Havoc Wreaker weakens both Flame and Toothless, but he got distracted by Hiccup, Astrid, Fishlegs, Snotlout, the twins, Valka, Eret and Gobber ridding on their respective dragon friends, Stormfly, Meatlug, Hookfang and Barf and Belch, Cloudjumper, Skullcrusher and Grump, with Hiccup riding on Light Fury as Zephyr also helps by using cannons on him.

Flame's life started to flash before his eyes, remembering his siblings, as well as the journey he was on, remembering that he has a world to fight for, he stood up to fight Death Havoc Wreaker despite the odds, the severe injuries and the exhaustion, Death Havoc Wreaker overpowered the dragon riders, forcing Toothless to watch his mate die, as he was gonna kill Light Fury with his Lava Breath, but Flame saved her, he payed the price as Death Havoc Wreaker started to beat him violently and brutally. He was gonna kill Flame again with his Lava Breath, but at the last second, Toothless saves him using the Plasma Wingshield, but Death Havoc Wreaker suddenly burned them as the lighting strikes on them, but they, in their new powerful forms, overpowered Death Havoc Wreaker, giving him a final blow by obliterating him with the same move as they combined their beath abilities, killing him, ending his reign of terror, and leaving his quest of reshaping the planet and wiping out all life in vain.

Toothless reunites with his family, but was approached by Flame, roaring at him as an appreciation, Flame was gonna leave, but Toothless, understanding the pain of Flame, invited Flame to be part of his family, much to Flame's joy, and the Night Lights jumped on Flame playfully, but they begin to hear something coming, it was the ancient dragon warriors who sealed up Death Havoc Wreaker in the mountain thousands of years ago, bowing down to both of Flame and Toothless.

Trivia

 * The main theme of the movie is "connection and loneliness" which was seen with Flame and Toothless being the last of their kind.
 * Since Death Havoc Wreaker, the main antagonist of the fourth installement, is the first dragon to exist, he can be considered as The Great Scope Villain of the entire franchise as he's responsible for the creation of the Hidden World and the existence of the dragons.
 * Since Death Havoc Wreaker experienced tragedy as he never found another of his species or any other immortal dragons due to him being the first dragon and one-of-a-kind dragon, he can be considered as a darker and evil counterpart to Flame and Toothless, serving as what they would become had they let their loneliness consume them. Thankfully, Toothless' bond with Hiccup and starting a family with Light Fury, and Flame's bond with his late siblings as well as acceptance to Toothless' family is what prevented from becoming what Death Havoc Wreaker turned into.
 * In order to not spoil the movie as well as hiding Death Havoc Wreaker's reveal, the director and co-writer, Walid Bendi Abdallah, made sure to make Flame look like a villain in trailers as well as adding hints.
 * It has been confirmed that Flame appeared in The Hidden World as one of Grimmel's Deathgrippers by Walid Bendi Abdallah. This is the first How To Train Your Dragon movie to feature an antagonist from the previous installements as well as the first movie antagonist to be redeemed.
 * Walid Bendi Abdallah stated that Flame wasn't a villain but a misunderstood tragic antagonist who was brainwashed by Grimmel along with his siblingsn making him a scapegoat.
 * This is the second DreamWorks franchise to have a 4th installement, the first being Kung Fu Panda.
 * Walid explained in interview that he wanted to add some characters from canonical TV shows like Heather or Dagur, but it was scrapped because they didn't fit into the story and he said "we might leave them for another story".
 * Walid explained that the reason why he wanted to add a dragon villain and not a human villain like the previous installements was because he noticed that there are no dragon villains who serve as a darker reflection to Toothless or Flame, and another reason was because he had no friends at young age until he found some, so he wanted to make a 4th installement based on his experience.
 * unlike previous installements who had 2 main protagonists (Hiccup and Toothless), this is the first installement to feature 3 main protagonists (Hiccup, Toothless and Flame).
