In the next area, Mario starts out on a platform above the [[lava]]. A Grinder immediately falls from a big rectangle platform at the top of the screen. Mario jumps over a pit full of lava, avoiding the [[Podoboo]]s that jump out. After climbing the next platform, Mario jumps into a small pit at the bottom of the screen, which contains two Grinders and a [[Triangular Block]] that Mario must use to climb out of the pit and progress through the level. Mario finds a [[Question Block]] on the platform containing a power-up. Next, Mario must get a running start and jump across a pit of lava (with Podoboos in it). The next platform is a long area made of a set of unbreakable gray blocks (and Podoboos and Grinders). Mario jumps across the blocks suspended above the ground, avoiding the Grinders and Podoboos. When Mario reaches the end of the platform and jumps across the lava again, he lands on the last platform of the fortress. If Mario is on the part of the platform at the bottom of the screen, he finds a [[Triangular Block]] that helps him climb the wall and reach the boss door. Mario must, again, fight four [[Reznor]]s on a set of four rotating platforms by hitting the underside of each platform.

===Alternate Exit===
===Alternate Boss Door===
This exit can only be accessed with [[Cape Mario]]. At the last platform in the fortress, Mario must stay on the part at the top of the screen. This way, he will be able to jump onto the row of blocks above the first boss door. When Mario reaches the wide pit of lava, Mario must jump while dashing, activating Cape Mario's gliding ability. If Mario flies far enough without getting hit by a [[Podoboo]], he reaches a secret platform. This platform contains many [[Rotating Block]]s with [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, and the second boss door. In the boss door, Mario has to fight four [[Reznor]]s again, in the same manner as the normal exit. After completing either exit, Mario will be able to access the Star Road and go to [[Star World 4]].
The alternate boss door is a secret area that is hard to reach but contains enormous rewards. It can be accessed with [[Cape Mario]], or by skillful [[Spin Jump]] on the [[Podoboo]]. At the last platform in the fortress, Mario must stay on the part at the top of the screen. This way, he will be able to jump onto the row of blocks above the first boss door. When Mario reaches the wide pit of lava, one way is to activate Cape Mario's gliding ability, flying consistently for enough time and avoiding Podoboo to reach a secret platform. Another much more risky way is to spin jump on Podoboo quickly and precisely. The platform contains many blocks with [[1-Up Mushroom]]s and the second boss door. In the alternate boss door, the boss fight with the four [[Reznor]]s is just the same as the normal exit. After defeating the Renznors, Mario will get the normal exit to the Star Road leading to [[Star World 4]].


The alternate exit does not count as a secret exit. As a result, the player is not required to take it to 100% complete the game.
