Okay, this may be short since the mission itself is short. Ah well. Better than nothing.
"Aww." Yellow Toad said.
"Let's do this!" Toad said.
Chapter 20: Boarding Bowser's Sub
The three came out of the portal from Shifting Sand Land. They've just about completed the basement.
"Alright! We've got enough stars for Bowser's next hideout! Let's do this, guys." Toad said.
The three Toads went back to the entrance of the basement where the star door was. With the power of the stars, Toad breaks the seal. But when they were about to enter the hole leading to Bowser's hideout, they saw a clear portal blocking the way.
"Another portal?" Toadette said.
Toad went over and touched the water-like portal, and surely enough, his hand had disappeared into it.
"Sorry, Toads. Looks like we have to make one more stop." Toad said.
The three entered the portal leading to...
Dire Dire Docks
...and they immediately landed into a large lake.
"This place kinda reminds me of Jolly Roger Bay, but it's related somehow." Toad said.
Toad, Yellow Toad, and Toadette proceeded to dive into the water, entering a small underwater cavern which led them into a secret area with a large submarine.
"Whoa. Where are we?" Yellow Toad asked.
"Looks like one of Bowser's military bases. That sub has his emblem on it." Toad said.
"Look, I see another star! Let's board this sub!" Toadette said, pointing at the star.
The three climbed up onto the ship using some crates full of weapons that were made by the Koopa Troop and grabbed the Power Star.
