Once Prince Paco has reappeared on the screen (along with his clone whip), start walking to the right and drop off the edge of the platform as you come to a treasure chest; once you have walked up to this treasure chest to open it, a Wing powerup shall emerge from it. Once you have collected this Wing powerup, the Kikurage in the background will become sentient and start chasing after you - and once you have jumped on it to kill it, drop off the edge of the platform as you come to a Medusa Head who's firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on a small platform on the right side of the screen. Use your clone whip to kill her, then drop off the edge of the platform, to land on the right side of a weighted platform (which has spikes on the underside and a bed of spikes beneath it); once the weighted platform has slanted downwards to the right side (because that's the one Prince Paco has landed on) crouch down and crawl to the left, to make it slant downwards to the left side, before jumping up to the next solid platform. Once you have done so, drop down off the edge of the platform as you come up to a Bakudan Mogle who is reaching into his sack and throwing two bombs from his seemingly infinite supply at you from his position on a second small platform on the left side of the screen - and once you've jumped on him twice to kill him, you will come to another Medusa Head who is firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position upon the left side of the screen. Use your clone whip to kill her, then drop off the edge of the platform, as you'll come to a third Medusa Head, firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on a third small platform on the right side of the screen - and once you've done so, drop off edge of the platform, and continue walking to the right as you come to a Dokatant that is digging into the platforms above you with its pickaxe (to cause a rockslide). Use your clone whip to kill it, then drop off the edge of the platform, as you'll come to a fourth Medusa Head, who is firing lasers from her eyes at you, from her position on that left side of the screen; use your clone whip to kill her, then drop onto four more small platforms in turn, as you'll come to a fifth Medusa Head, who's firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the right side of the screen. Use your clone whip to kill her, then drop down onto an eighth small platform as you come to a sixth Medusa Head who is firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the left side of the screen - use your clone whip to kill her, then drop off the edge of the platform as you come to an Oguchi that is blowing you away from it (and a treasure chest). Once you have jumped on the Oguchi to kill it, walk up to the treasure chest that it was standing in front of to open it; once you have done so a Lucky powerup will emerge from it. Once you have collected the Lucky powerup for an extra clone jump over another bed of spikes and continue walking to the right as the thirty-two icicles on the underside of the platform above you fall down while you are passing under them - and once you have bypassed these, you will come to a pool of water, with a Green Pirawani jumping out of it. Use your clone whip to kill it, then jump over the pool of water to land on the platform beyond it, before coming to a second pool of water which has two Otoshigons jumping out of it, and spitting fireballs at you; once you have jumped on both of them to kill them, you will come to a landing on the platform beyond the second pool of water. Once you have done so continue walking to the right as the sixteen additional icicles on the underside of the platform above you fall down while you are passing under them - and once you have bypassed them jump over a third bed of spikes and continue walking to the left, as you come up to a seventh Medusa Head who is firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the left side of the screen. Use your clone whip to kill her, then jump over a fourth bed of spikes and continue walking to the right as you come to an eighth Medusa Head who is firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the screen's right side; use your clone whip to kill her, then jump over a fifth bed of spikes, and continue walking to the right as you come to a third pool of water. Once you have jumped over this third pool of water you will come to a landing on the platform beyond it - and once you've done so, the twenty-four additional icicles on the underside of the platforms above you will fall down as you drop onto four more small platforms in turn. Once you've dodged them, you will come to two more Medusa Heads who are firing lasers from their eyes at you from their positions on the left and right sides of the screen and two Totem Poles who are spitting fireballs at you from their positions below that ninth Medusa Head on the left side of the screen; use your clone whip to kill them both, then drop off the edge of that platform and continue walking to the right as you come to an eleventh Medusa Head, firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the underside of the platform above you. Use your clone whip to kill her, then jump up once you've reached the edge of the platform and walk up to the two treasure chests that are in front of you to open them - and once you have done so, a second Lucky powerup will emerge from that chest on the left, and a Bonus Hot Dog will emerge from that one on the right. Once you have collected the second Lucky powerup for an extra clone (and the Bonus Hot Dog for 1000 extra points) drop off the edge of the platform and walk back to the left, as a Tank comes driving towards you while firing a missile at you; use the clone whip to kill it, then continue walking to the left until you come to a pit of lava that has six fireballs jumping out of it, five small platforms over it, and thirty-nine additional icicles on the underside of the platform above it (but these ones will not fall down while you are passing under them). Once you've jumped onto the first of these five small platforms, you shall have to jump up onto the second of these five small platforms - and once you have done so you shall have to jump up onto the third of these five small platforms, before jumping onto the fourth and penultimate of these five small platforms (which is moving up and down in a fixed position). You will then have to use the movement of this small platform to jump onto the fifth and final of these five small platforms; once you have done so, you shall have to jump onto the platform beyond the aforementioned pit of lava (which has a treasure chest on it). Once you walk up to this treasure chest to open it up, one Wing powerup will emerge from it - and once you have collected this, you shall come to another pit of lava which has three more fireballs jumping out of it, an eighteenth small platform over it and twenty-four additional icicles on the underside of the platform above it (which, again, will not fall down while you are passing under them). Once you have jumped up onto the eighteenth small platform, you shall have to jump onto the platform beyond the aforementioned second pit of lava as you come to a second Bakudan Mogle who is reaching into his sack and throwing two bombs from his seemingly infinite supply at you, from his position on a platform on the left side of the screen; once you have jumped on this Bakudan Mogle twice, to kill him, you will have to drop down onto one of six platforms on an enormous wheel which has a hexagram in the centre and the numbers 9, 3, 4, 2, 0, 8, 5, 7, 6, 4, -I-, and 1 around the edge that is rotating in a clockwise direction (much like the one you encountered towards the end of World 1-4), which has a third pool of lava beneath it. Once you have done so, two Crawlers will come flying towards you, as you come to a twelfth Medusa Head who is firing lasers from her eyes at you from her position on the right side of the screen - and once you have jumped on both of the Crawlers, to kill them, use your clone whip to kill the Medusa Head before jumping onto another platform upon the opposite side of the wheel. Once you have done so you will have to jump onto a nineteenth and final small platform before jumping onto the platform at the end of the area; once you have done so, you shall receive 10 bonus points for every tenth of a second you have remaining in "clocks", as the double doors on that left side of the screen open up. You will now proceed to World 4-3 - which is the penultimate area of the game and features a pool of lava that can only be cleared by jumping on eight Purple Pirawani in turn.
