ThePenguin[1] is a member of theBrown Sugar Pirates inWario Land: Super Mario Land 3. He is the leader ofSherbet Land and is an optional boss in the game. A large and bulky penguin sporting the pirates' emblem on his stomach, the Penguin wields two vicious spiked boxing gloves, which he uses to menaceWario. He is vulnerable to jump attacks, but will protect his head with a spiked helmet after Wario's initial attack. This helmet can be knocked off byBody Slamming the Penguin in the back, or by throwing a10 Gold Coin at it. Rather than producing a large amount of coins upon defeat, the game rewards Wario with five3-Up Hearts. Additionally, the Penguin is the only boss that can be fought multiple times on the same save file (besidesCaptain Syrup if the game is reset).

Once Wario advances to the end of the level, he’ll find a pesky Penguin that will cause him some grief.
