Gooey Swamp

But who cares about butterflies?

All I'm interested in are rupees...

I'll tell you something good! Give me rupees...

There are only two butterflies in the Gooey Swamp...

If they aren't here, they must be in the neighbouring marshland...

But I heard it's full of gas. I expect the butterflies have escaped somewhere...

Fair enough.

That's not enough! Give me more rupees!

Pleased to meet you! Do you know a man called Duke?

I am Duke's younger brother Judge! At your service!

We've come out to fix all the bridges we can!

I've got to fix the bridges before my older brother does! Please help me!

Hey man! How you doing?

But I am a dab hand at repairing bridges this length...

If this bridge was fixed, it would really help you on your adventure...

So let's discuss my fee for repairing this bridge!

It's you again! How are things?

Have you got some rupees for me this time?

There you are! As good as new!

It's a shame I can't build bridges between continents, but it's just too far...

That's why you can't just walk back to the First Continent...

Where on earth has our dad, the Foreman got to?

I didn't see any trace of him on this continent.

I am going to search for him on the other continents.

Until next time! Bye bye!

I'm going to work on another bridge! See you around!

Hold on! You expect me to work for nothing?!

I just put a lot of energy into that repair work!

I'm not going to fix the bridge for that!

But don't worry, I'll hold on to what you gave me. You can give me more later!

Just a little more and I'll start working!

Give me about as much as you've given me already, and I can help you!

It will take more rupees to get me swinging my pickaxe!

When you get some rupees come back and see me. I'll be waiting!

I remember black, shiny eyes... ...trembling antennae... ...a strange chirping...

Then I found myself enveloped in a strange fog... Her voice called out to me...

“I want you to try my new juice! It's my most delicious recipe yet! You'll love it!”

As soon as I smelled that fruity aroma, I snapped back to my senses...

Before my eyes was that man, looking at me as if he wanted something...

I didn't care a fig about the team of explorers... I just missed that cafe...

I sensed some juice but I was after something more sophisticated...

I felt an intense pain. It was as if something had exploded next to me...

I recall a liquid of some sort was poured on my body. But it wasn't what I wanted.

Spend Your Hard-Earned Rupees On A Top-Quality New Bodyguard!

Everyone's Favourite Bodyguard Salon: This Way!

Do not disturb me!

I'll let you off... ...this time.

But be warned... If you ever disturb this ninja master again...

You won't be forgiven...

Don't forget what I said!

How dare you!

I told you never to disturb me!

Have you forgotten?!

Ninja Skills: The Multi-Ninja!

It's impossible...

A ninja master like me can't have slipped up...

He must have stumbled

upon me by chance...

Listen to me... I won't let you off the hook three times in a row...

A ninja has a heart of ice and never forgets...

Next time, be warned!

You will feel my wrath!!

It's you!

How can a wretched man like you see through my ninja techniques?

How dare you!

You will pay the price!

Ninja Skills: The Rupee Drain!

You are a fool.

The next time will be the end for you!

This really is your final warning!

Humph...

Not to worry...

Perhaps you spotted my ninja scroll...

But next time...

No, there will be no next time!

Feel my awesome power!

What's that you say?!

You saw my ninja scroll?!

This can't be true!

Unbelievable!

A ninja master like me? How could I slip up?

This is most terribly embarrassing...

But this is the last time you will ever see me!

I have realised that I must further perfect my techniques...

They will become far too good for a man like

you to see through...

Take this back!

I do not need it!

You can make a contract with the Drifter Bodyguard …!!

......

I'll ask you one thing.

Did you see the ninja scroll sticking out?

Listen up...

When a ninja master speaks, you must listen in silence!

My ninja techniques are perfect in every way...

The ninja scroll is my way of getting customers to hire me as a Bodyguard...

Don't you see? It's really very easy

to understand... It's like a code...

I deliberately set it up so people can spot it...

Only those people sharp-eyed enough to spot my ninja scroll...

...are worthy of making a contract with me. Now you see!

The next time you see the ninja scroll...

Well...

I might just consider being your Bodyguard...

So if you think you are worthy...

When you see the scroll, touch it on the screen.

But bear in mind...

My skills do not come cheap...

Never forget it!

I've thought it all out!

Focus...

Don't move a muscle...

He will be awed...

...a true ninja master...

...moves like a shadow...

We did it, man!

We're still a great team! Monsters beware!

Did ya see that creature?! That was no regular bug... It seemed to be possessed...

It was as if it had been cursed, or had some sort of spell put on it...

Whatever, man! I ain't afraid of bugs or ghosts or curses...

Now...

Thanks for the Mini Death Bug chrysalis, man!

Well, anyway...

Thanks for the Mini Death Bug chrysalis, man!

I can tell this is going to give me a real boost of energy!

I can't wait!

Hmmm... I wonder how this chrysalis tastes...

Urgh!

Yuck!

Bleurgh!

Wow!

Wee!

I feel great! It's the birth of a new Drifter Bodyguard!

Ya want to know my story?

Ya want to know why I became a Drifter Bodyguard?

Originally I was a Bodyguard working in a Salon...

I was big, but I wasn't all that strong, so I never earned very much...

At that time, one of the older Bodyguards, called Ronny, went solo...

I followed his example and left the Salon...

“To be a Drifter Bodyguard you have to get stronger!”

One of the Salona said that and told me about the power of the chrysalis...

I understand. Sorry I asked...

Drifter Bodyguards like me do things a bit differently to the Salon Bodyguards...

Firstly, you can never tell when yer going to meet one of us...

We don't come cheap and when we talk rupees we only give ya one chance!

Power-up potions don't work and if we lose all our power we won't sign new contracts.

However!

Compared to any of the Salon Bodyguards, we are extremely powerful!

Keep touching the smoke cloud during a battle and we'll do our special moves!

That is the secret of the Drifter Bodyguards...

The Salona love to gossip, so I guess they know these secrets too...

Up to now ya always gave me a generous share of yer riches, man...

I promise to offer ya my services at a knock-down price!

Up to now, ya gave me a share of your wealth just that one time...

In return for that, I'll offer my services at a discount...

Just this once, I'll help ya out for a bargain price!

Well, thanks for everything! See ya around, man!

I see!

When the beams of light reach the building, the door opens...

By the way, how did you tame a giant bee like that?! Who are you anyway?!

But I wonder how anyone could get up to that entrance?

If you jumped from the height of an energetic bee... ...perhaps you'd make it...

You would have to jump down from somewhere even higher...

How did you tame a giant bee like that?! Who are you?!

What on earth is that strange building those bees are buzzing around?

What on earth is that strange building?

It seems a beam of light of some kind is shining on the building...

I wonder if this is connected to the words engraved on that stone...

I want to investigate but how on earth can I get up there?

I'm convinced this is some kind of entrance...

Only when light is gathered from 4 glowing balls will the door open...

EXPLORER'S LOG

To the North we have discovered a huge building shaped like an insect...

Without delay, I despatched someone to investigate further...

CHIEF EXPLORER

I am the esteemed leader of this fine group of explorers!

We've travelled vast distances to track down three very rare butterflies...

This place seems to be coming down with insects...

Just look at the building shaped like an insect which lies to the North of here...

I am convinced that the butterflies we are after can be found around here!

That's where you come in!

If you find an unusual butterfly, make sure you bring it to me!

My secretary here will give you more details.

You got it? I'm expecting great things!

If you find red, blue and yellow butterflies, please bring them to me...

But that's it!!

The butterfly I've been after!

You over there! Give me that butterfly!

What?!

Wow! You've done well, my good man!

Look at them!

Red!

Blue!

Yellow!

I've got all the butterflies!

I am eternally grateful to you, my good man!

Secretary!

This is by way of thanks. Here you are!

Now I've got all the butterflies, I don't need this...

I'll give it to you. There you go!

If you find other butterflies, make sure you bring them to me!

I'm expecting great things!

My good man! I am eternally grateful to you! Secretary!

Look at all these wonderful butterflies! Delightful!

The other gentleman is the Chief Explorer...

I am the team's secretary.

I am the team's secretary.

You can catch butterflies using empty jars...

It's simple. As long as you have an empty jar...

By chance, I have on my person an empty jar... Would you like it?

With your help, we have got all the butterflies. We are very grateful.

I no longer need this empty jar... Do you want it?

You can buy it for the price of three Pink Quartz stones...

The empty jar is all yours!

This empty jar was developed by a famous inventor to aid research...

I heard that he lives on this continent. I'd love to meet him...

You don't want to buy it? Well, that's your decision...

It will take more than that! Be serious, man! You're not a child anymore!

Just look at him! I've never seen him so happy!

Can this really be the same Chief Explorer?!

We may have come here to search for rare butterflies...

...but there are plenty of other interesting things around here...

...The team we sent to the Steamy Marsh to look for butterflies...

...has reported that they have found an enormous beehive...

...I am also intrigued by that strange building to the North...

...What on earth can it be? It is worthy of further investigation...

Are you looking after yourself?

I am the doctor for this brave group of explorers! It keeps me busy...

Exploring remote places always carries risk...

But as long as we've got this medicine I mixed, we don't fear illness!

How are you feeling? Do you want me to tell you how to make this recipe?

Not that I can do it for free, you understand...

Here you are! Look after yourself!

I see. Well, take care of yourself.

That's not much! You'll have to do better...

But you gave me over half of what I hoped for so here's a little hint!

This medicine, unlike the others, contains skull...

Want to know how to make it? It'll take rupees!

That's a bitter pill to swallow...

You'll have to do better if you want me to talk!

I am investigating this mysterious tower...

There seems to be some kind of slime secreted by insects covering the tower...

According to my investigation, the slime covering the tower has hardened...

It looks extremely brittle and would break if exposed to some kind of impact...

It appears that this tower was designed to shine a light towards something...

This is exactly what I predicted would happen based on my investigation...

Arrgh!! A dog!!

The ship already set sail!

The Bodyguard the First Mate hired has gone missing...

I think they've gone to look for the Bodyguard...

Oh, one more thing! A message from the Engineer...

To make bombs you need...

2 X Bomb Fruits, 2 X Gelatine, 2 X Explosive Claws

That's what he said, anyway...

Has he already given you that recipe?

Either way, he seemed anxious that you get it...

G...g...get away from me!!

Ahoy there, matey! There's a spot of bother...

The First Mate is looking for you...

Go up there!

You've got to help! We're in a spot of bother...

Good work, matey!

You're the saviour of the pirates!

But if you had become a pirate back at the Hideaway...

...maybe you couldn't have helped us out like this...

Thanks again, matey!

As promised, let's head to Mount Desma!

One more thing, matey!

The Salon Bodyguards can't cross continents...

This is the Second Continent.

Mount Desma is in the Third Continent.

You won't be able to bring your Bodyguard. Is that okay?

Are you ready to go?

Away we go, matey!

Okay, matey! You get ready.

We'll be waiting!

Board ship?

Pleased to meet you! Do you know a man called Duke?

I'm Duke's younger brother, Judge! How you doing?

We brothers have come here to repair broken bridges!

I have to fix these bridges before my brother does! I've got a suggestion...

It looks like there's some kind of tower on the other side of this bridge...

...You want to go there... ...I want to fix this bridge... We should do business!

Let's talk about how much you really want this bridge repaired.

Oh! It's you! It's been a while!

There you go! Fixed! Looking pretty good!

Thanks for your help! There are other bridges that won't fix themselves!

I'm going to fix the bridge to the marsh. Come and see me!

Hold on! You expect me to work for nothing?!

I just put a lot of energy into that repair work!

Hello there!

Did you manage to find that thing?

Hey there!

I saw something interesting a few minutes ago...

Want to hear more? I know you do! I can tell!

Alright! I'll tell you...

But... It depends how much you want to hear it...

So?

You want to hear my story?

Hello again. How's it going?
