'''Dragonzamasu''' is the second boss of the game ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. He is a large [[Yurarin Boo]] (a seahorse-like dragon) that lives underwater. During the extraterrestrial invasion of [[Sarasaland]], the evil space alien [[Tatanga]] placed Dragonzamasu in charge of the [[Muda Kingdom]], the second world of Sarasaland. In the third level of World 2-3, Mario battles Dragonzamasu in the monster's water-filled lair. Strangley, Dragonzamasu attacks using fire even though the battle takes place underwater. However, since they are underwater, Mario has to fight Dragonzamasu with his custom submarine, the [[Marine Pop]]. To defeat Dragonzamasu, Mario had to fire torpedoes at the monster and succeed in hitting it 20 times. Dragonzamasu was protected by a bubble barrier called [[Tamao]]. His defeat was worth 5000 points. Interestingly enough, the Dragonzamasu fight is the first shooter battle in any Mario game. Dragonzamasu is believed to be a hybrid between a seahorse and a dragon, like the [[Yurarin]]s.
In the [[Super Mario Land (manga)|''Super Mario Land'' manga]], Dragonzamasu is the boss of Muda Kingdom and, in order to find him, Mario and [[Mecha Kuribō (character)|Mecha Kuribō]] capture a Yurarin Boo, forcing it to give them directions to the boss' lair. After reaching it, Mekakuribō analyzes that Mario needs to shoot Dragonzamasu 20 times to defeat him, but they are then hit by Tamao, who damages the submarine, creating a leak that Mario stops by using the Yurarin Boo as a cork. Mario eventually shoots Dragonzamasu down and proceeds.
 
In ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', Dragonzamasu appears in the last chapter of [[Super Mario-kun Volume 3|volume 3]], in a flooded room in [[Bowser's Castle]]. Mario, [[Luigi]], and [[Yoshi]] come face to face with Dragonzamasu and Tamao. Dragonzamasu uses his snout to torment Mario and shoot flames at him, until Mario flashes the two with his bald spot and takes advantage of the situation to blow into Dragonzamasu's snout, until he pops like a balloon.

Dragonzamasu[1][2] (alternatively Dragon Zamasu)[3][4] is the second boss in Super Mario Land. He resembles a large Yurarin Boo and, by extension, a Yurarin. Dragonzamasu is in charge of the Muda Kingdom. In battle, Dragonzamasu attacks by spitting fire at Mario in his Marine Pop. To defeat Dragonzamasu, Mario has to shoot twenty torpedoes at him, while dodging Tamao, who floats around the arena and can block the Marine Pop's torpedoes. Alternatively, Dragonzamasu can be defeated from Mario shooting torpedoes at the blocks in the bottom right corner of the arena, and activating the switch behind these blocks. Either way, Mario is awarded 5000 points for defeating Dragonzamasu and is allowed to progress into the Easton Kingdom.

In the Super Mario Land manga, Dragonzamasu is the boss of Muda Kingdom and, in order to find him, Mario and Mecha Kuribō capture a Yurarin Boo, forcing it to give them directions to the boss' lair. After reaching it, Mekakuribō analyzes that Mario needs to shoot Dragonzamasu 20 times to defeat him, but they are then hit by Tamao, who damages the submarine, creating a leak that Mario stops by using the Yurarin Boo as a cork. Mario eventually shoots Dragonzamasu down and proceeds.

In Super Mario-kun, Dragonzamasu appears in the last chapter of volume 3, in a flooded room in Bowser's Castle. Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi come face to face with Dragonzamasu and Tamao. Dragonzamasu uses his snout to torment Mario and shoot flames at him, until Mario flashes the two with his bald spot and takes advantage of the situation to blow into Dragonzamasu's snout, until he pops like a balloon.
