Defeat the giant bee!

Template:Levelbox Defeat the giant bee! is the fifth and final story of Chapter Three in the game Wario Land II. Like the previous level, Escape from Maze Woods, it is set in a forest. The area is also overrun with bees which make Wario's head swell if the player is not careful. The chapter boss is an enlarged version of a bee as well.

Hidden Treasure: Banana Bunch

The hidden treasure of this level, the Banana Bunch, is near the second area of the forest. The player has to let Wario assume his puffy form by getting stung by a bee, and float to a ledge with a door on it. After entering this door, Wario is in another room with some Pirate Gooms. The treasure lies beneath that room in a secret underground chamber that can only be entered through an invisible gap in the ground. The player should observe the Pirate Goom on the right side of the room. He moves back and forth and where he stops his movement, a gap can be found. Alternatively, the player can just move to the far left, fall through another gap and will see the location of the hidden entrance.

Boss Battle: Giant bee

The fight takes place on a battlefield with two beehives, one on each side. The giant bee stays in mid-air while moving from side to side. Eventually, it will launch an attack and crush down to sting Wario. This is the chance for the player to attack the bee's head. After getting hit, the bee retreats and summons a smaller bee. Evading the small bees is harder, but it will fly away if it is touched from above or from the side. The player should avoid touching it from beneath because that will make Wario change to puffy-state and take him out of the battlefield. After the small bee disappears, the giant bee comes back. It will still use the same attack pattern however. After receiving another hit, it flees again and summons two small bees this time. It reappears once these underlings are defeated. After yet another hit, it, again, summons two small bees, but this time, it does not wait until Wario has dealt with both of them. If the player can get another successful hit on the enemy's head, the battle is over and the giant bee is defeated.
