PrinceWatercress plays Super Ninja Boy - Part 8 of 25


Our journey takes us to the desert town of Celestern, where it becomes obvious that we have some more work to do if we want to see invisible enemies.


All maps by zagato blackfist.



The Mighty Ball uses a few M icons and creates a screen-wide damage bomb that does good damage to all enemies if you punch the ball; the Ninja Cyclone allows you to jump into enemies and knock them into the sky never to return.

When you talk to Julia now, she will think you for bringing her father back from the tower. She then says she wants to send an Errandbot with her message of love to King Romel in Satoon, but the path to Satoon is full of invisible monsters. Jack and Ryu agree to escort him to town. Before you leave, Julia will tell you to go south over a desert and visit the town of Celestern before going over to Satoon. Here, you will find the Hyper Vision, which allows you to see the invisible monsters.

To go to Celestern, take the same path you took to go to Fairy Tower, but instead of going south at the large forest, go east instead. You'll see a bridge that takes you to desert. At the southern end is the town of Celestern.

On the sand, you'll meet some new enemies. You'll find enemies that look like men wearing white turbans who are really another palette swap of the robot enemies we've seen throughout the game that is the strongest you'll see yet. The turban enemies have robotic fists that they can shoot at you, and the best way to beat them is to somersault into them with the B button or the Miracle Kick (and maybe even punching at them as they are about to get up) and also continuously jumping around so the explosions don't touch you. The jumping around is especially important, as the desert floor will act as a continuous conveyor belt that pushes you to the left. Fighting in the desert can be tough, as the shifting sands carry you to the left as you stand on the ground. You'll have to keep jumping to the right to catch up with enemies and take them down, and you cannot even move up or down on it unless you are in mid-air. This can make battles against even enemies that you have already fought before more difficult.

Celestern


You'll learn from the people here that the town of Celestern is dedicated to studying magic. You'll also learn about a master magician in the Tower of Belba, as well as the powerful punch known as Hypnoblow, which can be earned at the Medal Exchange.

Here, you can by the Rapid Shot, Iron Turban and Ingot Armor to upgrade your equipment. If you need a Meat Bun, you can find one here.

One of the houses is the home of Scheherazade from The Magic of Scheherazade, an NES game by Culture Brain. She will tell you that Airosche, the wizard at the Tower of Belba, has Hyper Vision, but you will have to undergo her training, which will not be easy.

You'll find out from one of the townspeople that the Tower of Belba is to the south. You'll also learn that one of the vases in the 4th floor there leads to something good.

There is a Medal Exchange mini-game to the right of the Convenience Store.
