We've made it to the castle, but there is more to be done.
Stage 9
This stage begins with you on a jet ski. Much like the pedocopter stage from two stages ago, if you run any red balls, you're losing your ride and swimming the rest of the way. It controls much like the motorcycle, but you can shoot things like you're on the pedocopter.
Stage 10
There's a shop at the beginning of this stage. You can buy the pedocopter and the teleport/invincibility powder again, but there is also a B Globe, which gives you a barrier. The powder and the B Globe are strongly recommended, but if you get the pedocopter, you can make getting through this stage much easier.
There are plenty of green swamp pits and vines that move up and down, but there are also thunder clouds. Wait for them to move towards you before moving past them. You can also run past them as soon as they appear to avoid them completely if you're on foot.
The question mark block contains the ring that shoots projectiles.
There are plenty of flames near the end, but the pedocopter can fly over them all.
At the end of the stage, you'll meet Paper Head. (If you reach this point with the pedocopter, run into the ceiling in the upper-right corner of the screen to start the boss battle.) For the first round, choose Rock. For the second round, choose Scissors.
Stage 11
You'll finally enter Castle Radaxia.
On the first screen, run to the right to avoid all the spikes, then jump over the skull block and climb up the ladder. From here, carefully destroy the blocks to reach the next ladder, then stand next to the block the frog is jumping on to destroy it as well as the frog when the frog is not in the air.
Go right. If you take the high road, you'll find a 1-Up. The low road is where you really want to go; avoid the spikes as you make your way down, then punch the blocks to open up a path to the ladder.
Go down the ladder, punch the scorpion, then break the blocks to the right and continue in that direction. (If you grab the big money bag in this room, you will more than likely fall through the floor there and land on the flame below, losing a life.) From here, avoid the question mark block and go up the ladder. Hit the fish button and the wave button, and you'll free your brother, who tells you that the moonlight stone is in the Nibana Kingdom. He will tell you that there is a signed letter addressed to the kingdom, and that you must find it and take it with you to Nibana.
Head back down the ladder and to the left (watch out for the re-spawned enemies), then go down. Avoid the flames, head to the left and use the cane to fly to the ladder. Go up, jump over the spikes and jump your way to the scroll, then go back down and avoid the scroll as you go down the ladder to the left. Go right at the bottom, then run all the way to the right and break the first set of blocks so you can get away from the spikes.
Go up while avoiding the flames, and you'll face Stone Head again. Choose Paper on bothr ounds. After the re-match, you'll have to fight him. To beat him, punch him when he reaches his lower point, then back away. For best results, always punch when he moves towards you.
Stage 12
There is yet another shop at the beginning. There is an A Globe, a B Globe and a 1-Up. Grab the A Globe and the 1-Up, just in case.
You'll face Scissors Head after the shop. Choose Rock for both rounds. On the fight, jump over the projectiles while punching the head three times whenever it dives to the center of the screen, as it will be at your level there.
