This is the final stage of the game. Throughout this stage, the Scout Crow will appear constantly. It does no good to attack it, as one will reappear almost instantly. This stage features the most difficult paddle game play in the entire game. Block arrangment 8 contains the characters 神 which means "god".

As usual, you must find all of the hidden eggs to find the letters for the password. However, this is one egg whose location you will never find by shooting the air. Instead, there is a statue in this stage that looks a bit like Takahashi. In order to make one of the password eggs appear, you must shoot this statue, but you must do it in a particular fashion. You must shoot this statue by pressing 16 times per second.

This is quite a challenging feat to accomplish. You can use a turbo equipped controller, or you will have to find a way to mash the button with your bare hands. You must stand extremely close to the statue, but not quite on top of it, or the hits won't register. All the while when you are trying to accomplish this, the Scout Crow will attack you continuously. It helps to collect the invincibility item before attempting this.

The boss of this stage is small green creature who appears along with two imitations of itself. While you can only harm the real instances of this boss, all of them can harm you. They can kill you if you touch any of them, and the fire they shoot at you will take away your health. The real instance has 20 hit points. If you defeat him, you will earn 200,000 points and be treated to the ending before you can start the game all over again at a higher difficulty.
