Stage 2

Climb the ladder and continue forward. You can obtain the Leaf ability from the small plant enemies if desired. Reach the end and jump on the Warp Star to proceed.

To the left, you can find some stars. To the right, the Cutter ability is available. When you reach the platforms suspended by ropes, you can cut them with the Cutter ability or any sharp ability. One of these platforms contains a blue star. Enter the door at the end.

Go down the steps and grab the shiny red cannon. Run forward, hit the switch to activate a bridge, and continue running until you see a ceiling made of metal blocks. Hit this ceiling with the cannon to obtain an [Energy Sphere], then proceed to the right to the next door.

Grab the Needle ability, which is quite useful here, and move up the tree. You can drop the Needle ability for the Beam ability from the one-eyed enemy. Proceed upward. At the top, go to the upper-right to find an [Energy Sphere] in the tree, then exit.

Choose your preferred weapon (Beam is recommended). March forward and battle Gigant Edge. Swallow Gigant Edge to obtain the Sword ability. Jump onto the small platform and slice the rope through the wall. Go up to grab the last [Energy Sphere] and proceed through the door at the end.
