Head through the door. Immediately you'll be introduced to your first foes: Space Pirates. Use one (1) shot to take them out. Note that they can leap off of walls and fire lasers from their forehead, eyes and chest. | Head through the door. Immediately you'll be introduced to your first foes: Space Pirates.

You may notice objects that appear after their destruction, these will be either ammo or health. Health look like pulsating purple circles and ammo will either look like missiles or metal orbs (power bombs, later on). | ||
Go through the previously locked door, it's flashing gray/blue. Make your way back up the long room, kill all of the mantis-bots (they will probably be an annoyance if you don't, falling here is a real pain). They are easy to dispatch of if you jump up from below, and fire at their feet to avoid any lasers. | Go through the previously locked door, it's flashing gray/blue.

Run to the left corner and wait there. The chozo's armor begins to crack, and fall away, before it awakens. The statue reveals its true nature as [[../Bosses#Torizo|Torizo]], the miniboss for this section. Begin attacking after it stands up and gets close to you, its stomach will begin glowing so switch to missiles and unload on its weak point (its stomach), switch back and just keep attacking until its stomach explodes ( | Run to the left corner and wait there.

Begin attacking after it stands up and gets close to you, its stomach will begin glowing so switch to missiles and unload on its weak point (its stomach), switch back and just keep attacking until its stomach explodes (25 shots or 5 missiles). The chozo will follow a pattern in which it walks forward, stops, continues until it hits you, claws at you, jumps back, fires explosive orbs from its mouth and then repeats (although it might fire arc beams at you if you duck). Just attack it at all times, avoid the explosive orbs by either getting close, jumping over them from left to right, or wall jump off the left wall. | ||
Eventually the stomach area will explode, you know you're making progress now. It will begin dripping spit like fluids at all time from it (aesthetic effect), just continue fighting. Its head will explode after 10 shots (if you can get a missile power up from destroying the orbs, you can waste him with just two missiles), you're getting close, just avoid getting hit. He no longer can shoot orbs so he will only patrol back and forth trying to claw at you. If you get close, he'll swipe with his arm, but you can use this to your advantage by running close, moving away then firing so that you have more time. The best strategy though is to move to one side, fire, when he gets close jump up over his head (preferably a wall jump to avoid damage) and then run to the other side and repeat until dead.
