'''The Great Goal Pole''', otherwise known as '''{{world|star2|4}}''', is the fourth [[level]] of [[World Star (Super Mario 3D World)|World Star]] in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. It is unlocked by completing [[Rolling Ride Run]], and its completion unlocks [[Super Block Land]].

==Layout==
Upon first look, the level appears to be very short and simple. There is a [[tree]], a [[lift]], and a couple of [[? Block]]s. After the player [[jump]]s for the [[Goal Pole]], however, it grows wings and starts flying away, forcing [[Mario]] and co. to chase it. The Goal Pole stops flying if the player is too far behind, but as the player catches up, it continues flying away. [[Dash Panel]]s are placed in different locations around the level. To accommodate for the faster moving speed of the characters, the Goal Pole moves faster in ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'' compared to the original game.

Towards the end of the level, [[Donut Block]]s must be used as platforms. Once the player catches the Goal Pole, the level ends, and a cloud platform appears on the ground before the player jumps off the Goal Pole after sliding down it.

==Collectables==
===[[Green Star]]s===
*'''Green Star 1:''' The first Green Star is on the first set of Donut Blocks.
*'''Green Star 2:''' Right before the second [[Walleye]], the player must follow the Donut Blocks all the way to the left to get the Green Star.
*'''Green Star 3:''' The player has to follow the Donut Block staircase at the end of the level upwards, then follow the top path to reach the Green Star.

* At the end of the course, where the platforms are made entirely out of endless Donut Blocks, there is a hidden [[Luigi]] shown [[crouch]]ing if the player goes far enough.
