Snake Man attacks by running around the room, pausing periodically to jump into the air and fire a couple of snakes. The snakes he fires slither across the floor, also climbing vertical surfaces until they contact Mega Man. Avoiding these snakes can be difficult while also avoiding a collision with Snake Man. The Shadow Blade is an effective weapon to use against Snake Man, although it doesn't do as much damage as against Spark Man. The awarded weapon is identical to the snakes fired by Snake Man. | Snake Man attacks by running around the room, pausing periodically to jump into the air and fire a couple of snakes.

This otherworldly stage begins in what appears to be an arctic region, with Mega Man running across ice crystals while being attacked by mechanical penguins. Proto Man appears to open Gemini Man's cavernous fortress for Mega Man, but he does not attack as he does in his other appearances. After proceeding underground, the remainder of the stage is spent in a cavern made of multicolored rocks, inhabited by flying tadpoles and more mechanical penguins. Near the end of the stage, the Rush Marine can be used (although it is not necessary) to traverse the water. | |||
Gemini Man begins the battle by releasing a duplicate of himself. The two foes circle the room by jumping in an arc to one side and then running across to the other side, all the while firing the Gemini Laser. The laser bounces off the walls at angles until it contacts Mega Man, or until it disappears after a few seconds. By using the weapon acquired from Snake Man, one of two Gemini Men can easily be destroyed. When only one remains, the attack pattern changes abruptly to a simple running and jumping while firing the laser. The same weapon will finish him off quickly. The Gemini Laser, which is gained after this battle, is the same as that used by the boss. | |||

This stage appears to take place in a metropolitan area, and is rather short to complete. Mega Man faces robotic hedgehogs which fire needles from their backs, and later he must slide to avoid being hit by telescopic needles which extend from the ceiling. | |||
Needle Man jumps vertically into the air, firing his needle cannon at Mega Man. He also runs across the ground, pausing to attack Mega Man with the needles attached to his head. By using the Gemini Laser, a speedy defeat is assured, as even if the laser misses the target, it will reflect off the walls to hit him later. The Needle Cannon, which is awarded upon his defeat, fires needles quickly in a straight line. | |||
