File:Super Mario Bros. 3 SNES- World 1-Larry's Airship

Mario has finally gotten to the Grass Land's Castle. The first Koopaling to go down is Larry Koopa. He took the Grass Land King's wand and turned him into one of those snakes from the American Super Mario Bros. 2.

Strickly forumla, each time Mario realizes this, he finds the anchor of each Koopaling's airship and use it to get to the top. From there, he gets through the ship as he plans to take it down.

Larry himself is the boss. Being the first one, he just attacks will easy-to-dodge rings. You can either dispose of him by jumping on him three times, or just feed him enough fireballs if you're Fire Mario.

Defeating each Koopaling will have it retract back into it's shell and fly away, probably returning to Bowser, all while leaving the wand behind.

Grabbing the wand somehow destroys the airship Mario is in, he falls from the sky right back to the castle the king is located in. At this point he's back to normal thanks to the return of his wand. He also gives Mario a letter from Princess Peach.

The Peach letter contains a P-Wing. This is a Raccoon Mario upgrade that lets him to keep a full power meter so he can fly as much as he wants. One P-Wing use, though. After beating a level with it, it's just regular Raccoon Mario again.

You also can't use the P-Wing powerup to score 1-UPs for multiple stomp kills in a row, like what I did around the start of this video.
