Waluigi chuckled as he held a map, reading it to himself. He was determined to control the seas with an iron fist, having his vicious plants taking over. Just as Waluigi was about to make a speech, he turned around to find a nasty surprise - Mario coming in close from the air.
"Everyone! Get to your battle stations! NOW!!" Waluigi roared with anger as he began to fume, placing away his map as he got out his sword, which was backed up by his whip.
Mario looked down to see the Eggplantmen crew got onto deck, anticipating the plumber's drop. Unfortunately for him, they began firing bombs straight into the air, along with eggplants oddly enough. Mario piloted the Albatoss out of the way, but one purple eggplant hit the Albatoss in the face, causing it to drop towards the water. Mario landed on the sail of the ship as he watched the Albatoss splash into the water, the Eggplantmen climbing up on the tall pole. Determined, Mario jumped onto the pole, and slid down, knocking several Eggplantmen off as he fired his fireballs at the other Eggplantmen climbing.
Reaching the bottom safely, Mario came across with more Eggplantmen, who all had their cannons pointed at him. Mario, however, got an idea, and pulled out a Star, using it to become invincible. The dim witted eggplant pirates fired their bombs at him, but he wasn't effected, and as such, ran straight into them, knocking the enemies out unconscious. Mario then picked up the cannons and tossed all of them overboard, dusting off his hands.
