In this entry, we finally head into the Deep Jungle, learn to swim and try to help out in the nearby village.
There's not much else to do (that I can think of), so it's time to head to the Phoenix's Nest. Once you have five Bunk Flowers from the Lava Caves, go up to the Phoenix, use them, and you'll re-strengthen the Phoenix. This time, you'll be able to fly into the jungle. You'll complete the "The Master of the Skies" objective for doing so, then you'll get a cutscene where the flight is successful. You'll end up in the Deep Jungle, and get a new objective: "The Jungle Pig Bag."
The tribesman will hurt you, but you can kill them with the Jewel of Fire (something I completely forgot about while playing this). They do endlessly spawn, but you can get AP from them. There will be a 100-Year-Old Chest shortly after the start, and inside is the Funga Drum, which you'll need for the "What's A Funga?" objective. There are red man-eating plants here, but you can avoid them by jumping up the vines that will be slippery if you grab on. Also, watch out for the drums; you'll be bounced back if you move into them.
You may be able to find some Leaf Butterflies here. If you do, hunt them down here, as this is where you will find the last four needed for the "Leaf Butterflies" objective.
There are chests above the wooden cage. The 100-Year-Old Chest contains a Large Lunch Box, while the 1,000-Year-Old Chest contains a Vitality Max +1. You'll also find a man in the background. He will be relieved that you are not one of the Masakari (the tribesmen that act as enemies here), and will tell you that he came from the Clock Tower that is in the Village of Civilization up ahead. He will tell you that he is looking for his hat, which blew away and landed somewhere around here, but he saw a weird looking monkey with it. He is too scared to chase after him, what with the Masakari being about. He will tell you get the hat back if you see a strange monkey with striped pants on, as that is the monkey that has it. That monkey is Charles, whom we haven't seen in a while. This triggers the "Find Charles!" objective.
From here, use the fruits on the vine to slide past the big spike pit, but don't slide into the cage or else you'll be surrounded by Masakari and lose a life. Also, there are bananas in the foreground area. Be sure to get those before heading to the right. Further to the right from the Bananas is Charles. Land on the bridge and into the water, and Charles will teach you to swim in exchange for a refreshing drink. This triggers the "A Refreshing Drink" objective. He will give you the hat that the man you met earlier is looking for. This is the Miner's Hat, and returning it to the man by using it as an item near him will clear the "Find Charles!" objective. He will tell you that you can enter the Clock Tower in the Village of Civilization at any time, but you won't be able to enter the Iron Factory.
The big tree to the left of the man leads to some stuff. If you jump to the right, you'll be able to get the Large Lunch Box and the Vitality Max +1 that were mentioned earlier. Also, you can now enter the doors that were blocked by the man who needed his hat back. This will allow you to enter the Village of Civilization. If you jump to the left, you'll find Yan. You'll need Yan's Lunch Box at this point. If you talk to him with Yan's lunch box in your inventory, he'll let you keep it and he will also give you two pieces of Cheese. You'll also complete the "Take Out" objective.
At the Village of Civilization, you can go to the right to enter the Clock Tower. Up at the top is the guy you met earlier. He will give you some juice in return for getting his hat back, but he does not have Bananas. Give him teh Bananas, and he will make the Banana Juice for you. Head back to Charles and give him the Banana Juice, and you'll be able to bring it to Charles to complete the "A Refreshing Juice" objective and learn to swim. All you have to do is jump into the river, and Charles will take care of the rest. Move forward by holding the direction you want to go while pressing Square. Just swim to the right, then back to the ladder. You'll complete the "I Can't Swim..." objective.
If you jump back into the river, you can head to the right and go to the other side of the river. If you hold Up and press X while in front of a ladder, Tomba will jump into a ladder in the background - assuming one is directly in front of him - and climb up it automatically. Besides a save point, you can also find the Knowledge Fruit and a parrot. If you jump onto the parrot, the parrot will talk to the old tree nearby. The old tree nearby will ask you to find some Pump Rocks and step on them to push them back into the ground in order to bring nutrients back to it. This triggers the "The Pump Rocks" objective.
Also, there is a platform you can drop down to from the right of the first Pump Rock in this specific area. This will act as a shortcut to the river.
If you go back to the top of the Clock Tower and talk to the man there twice, the man will ask for your help to get the Machine to work so that the Clock Tower's gears can run again. From here, you'll be able to go to the Factory and the Iron Castle. You'll also trigger the "We Need Power..." objective.
