==Plot synopsis==

Wielding a plunger, Mario leaps out of the submarine and demands for the Bloober to leave the Mermushroom alone. The Bloober tosses the Mermushroom aside, and prepares to duel Mario with his trident. As the Bloober attempts to stab Mario, he leaps out of the way, leaving Luigi to ward off the attack with his own plunger. Mario lands behind the Bloober but fails to sneak up on him. Luigi tries to smack the Bloober with his plunger, but he shields it with his trident, and sends Luigi flying over to a boulder. Reclaiming his stuck plunger, Luigi pulls it off of the boulder with too much force and goes flying, hitting the Bloober right in the face with his plunger as he lands. Afterwards, Luigi gets his head stuck in a sea anenome, imparing his vision.

A moment later, the Bloober cracks the sea anemone off of Luigi's head, and attacks him with his trident. Luigi barely dodges the Bloober's stabbing, and attempts to intercept him with his plunger. Realizing the danger that Luigi is in, Mario spots an anchor lying on the seabed. Twirling the anchor's chain like a lasso, Mario tosses it at the Bloober and knocks him unconscious.

As Toad thanks Mario and Luigi for defeating the Bloober, the Mermushroom comes out of hiding and gives them her thanks as well. Princess Toadstool questions the Mermushroom as to why the Bloober was chasing her, and she explains that he is working for Barra-Koopa, who is kidnapping all the citizens of Aqua Land and turning them into slaves. Princess Toadstool asks where [[King Neptune|Neptune, Lord of the Deep]] is, and the Mermushroom tells her that he has been imprisoned by Barra-Koopa. The Mermushroom then pleads for the group to help her people and free King Neptune. Mario then tells her that it is the reason they came.

Meanwhile, in the throne room of King Neptune's temple, Barra-Koopa is sitting on the throne before King Neptune, with a Bloober by his side. Barra-Koopa mocks King Neptune, laughing at the fact that he is now his prisoner, and can proceed with taking over Aqua Land. King Neptune tells Barra-Koopa to mellow out, but Barra-Koopa does not understand his reasoning, and orders the Bloober to send him to the dungeon. Barra-Koopa then laments on the fact that he cannot stand a nice king. At that moment, the Bloober that had fought with Mario and Luigi, now covered in bandages, enters the throne room and alerts Barra-Koopa about their arrival in Aqua Land. Barra-Koopa declares that Mario and Luigi are never going to spoil his fun again, and orders for the Bloober to sound the [[Koopa Troop|Koopa Pack]] attack.

Princess Toadstool remarks that they are now safe, but their victory is short-lived, as a [[Clawgrip]] starts to approach them. Luigi fears that they are doomed, but Mario points out that there is a hatch they can escape through if they can get past the Clawgrip. As the Clawgrip chases after the group, they all leap over it, and duck down into the hatch, which is too narrow for the Clawgrip to fit through. The hatch leads the group out through the bottom of the ship, but Princess Toadstool reminds the others that they still need to save King Neptune, as he might be able to help them defeat Barra-Koopa. Toad, however, points out that they do not know where King Neptune is being held. The Mermushroom speaks out, informing the group that she knows a secret passage leading into Aqua Land's dungeon, and prepares to lead them to it.

Inside the dungeon, King Neptune mopes about being capture, and comments that he needs to get out. Suddenly, a large brick in one of the walls is pushed inwards, and falls down to the floor, revealing an passage that Mario enters through. Startled by Mario's entrance, he is then introduced to the plumber, along with the rest of his friends as they enter the dungeon. The Mermushroom explains to King Neptune that Mario's group has come to rescue him and to help fight Barra-Koopa. King Neptune suggests that they simply launch an attack on Barra-Koopa, but Princess Toadstool explains that they would be outnumbered. King Neptune assures her not to worry, because he is going to round up some of his fishy friends for their assistance.
