Layout
As stated above, the level begins inBoom Boom's area at the end of the previous level. The player must hit severalHidden Blocks at the other end of the room to reach aWarp Pipe leading to the upper deck, which automatically scrolls. The player must avoid the projectiles ofcannons and severalRocky Wrenches while navigating the airship. At the end of this is a second Warp Pipe.
Down the pipe is a room with twoBoomerang Brothers. The pipe after this leads to another airship segment. However, this area mostly consists ofRocket Engines. At one point, there are threeFire Brothers, and near the end there are a pair ofTurtle Cannons. At this point, the rest of the airship stops automatically scrolling, allowing Mario to move at his own pace. Before the Warp Pipe, a ? Block with aSuper Leaf is found.
The pipe leads to a chamber withBowser inside. He is defeated in the same manner as the previous battles. However, present in the room are several blocks that he cannot destroy with his ground pound move.
