    Shoot up to destroy three blocks, jump through the gap, and shoot the top block on your right.
  21. 21
    Jump up again and climb. Wait for blocks to reappear, then stand one block left of your created gap.
  22. 22
    Jump and grab the ledge on your left (going further left will cause you to fall).

    Jump over the wall in ball form, jump to the passage above, and hold the jump button to go as far left as possible.
