Burning Force/World 4-3

Once the background has reappeared in front of Hiromi, the eagle-like "Mothership" will fly over her and come to a landing in front of her as its back door opens up and she automatically speeds through it into the ship; once she has reappeared inside the ship, a screen showing a diagram of the area's boss character will come down in front of her, as the "Commander" flies into view on a hovering platform then points out the boss character's weak points with a stick, while the three-script text Bosu teki wīkupointo koko wo nerau (ボス敵ウィークポイントここを狙う) appears on the diagram. Once the "Commander" has flown out of view again, a claw holding a cab-like attachment will come down from the top of the screen, then transform Hiromi's scooter into a flying ship for the fourth time in the game - and once the claw has gone back up to the top of the screen, Hiromi will move it up to the centre of the screen, and blast off through the window at the front of the ship. (The claw that holds the cab-like attachment will also reappear to retransform Hiromi's scooter into a ship if she should ever lose a life during the course of this area; however, if it was her last life, it will not and she will just fall off the bottom of the screen).

A Zako-036 will then fly away from you on the right side of the screen; once you have fired off a shot at it to kill it, you will come to a lamp-post with a "C" powerup on its left side and an "H" powerup on its right side. Once you have collected the powerup of your choice, two Carriers that are transporting two Zako-012 will come flying towards you while firing projectiles at you - and once you have fired a shot at both of the Carriers and both of their Zako-012 to kill them, four more Carriers (that are transporting four more Zako-012) will come flying towards you from behind while firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of the Carriers and each of their Zako-012, to kill them, two groups of ten Zako-006 will come flying towards you on the left and right sides of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, two more Carriers (that are transporting two more Zako-012) will come flying towards you from behind, while firing projectiles at you; once you've fired a shot at both of the Carriers (and both of their Zako-012) to kill them, ten Zako-013 will come flying towards you while dropping Zako-041 on you. Once you have fired a shot at each of the Zako-013 to kill them, a second Zako-036 will fly away from you on the left side of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at this to kill it, two more groups of ten more Zako-006 will come flying towards you on the left and right sides of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of these to kill them, five more Zako-013 shall come flying towards you while dropping Zako-041 on you; once you have fired a shot at each of the Zako-013 to kill them, two Zako-045 will emerge from the ground and weave around you. Once you've fired enough shots at both of them, to kill them, a third Zako-036 will fly away from you on the left side of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at it, to kill it, a Zako-008 will roll away from you, on the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, two more groups of four more Zako-006 will come flying towards you on the left and right sides of the screen; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, two more Zako-045 will emerge from the ground and then weave around you. Once you have fired enough shots at both of them to kill them, another Zako-008 will roll away from you, on the right side of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at it to kill it, the background will darken, as the area's boss character flies over you from behind. It will then attack by dropping Zako-041 on you from its bomb compartment, in a manner similar to that of those Zako-013, while firing some green projectiles at you from its two retractable gun posts, which are its only vulnerable points; once you have fired enough shots at one of its gun posts to destroy it, the boss will tilt to the side that its remaining gun post is on and continue to engage its attack process. Once you have fired enough shots at the remaining gun post to destroy it, the boss itself will explode and Hiromi will move to the centre of the screen as the text "AREA 3 CLEARED" appears over her; you'll now receive 10 bonus points for every tenth of a second you have remaining, and go on to Area 4.
