Squad shoots the Ancient Minister, his robes burn off, revealing to everyone present that he was a R.O.B. himself all along. Unable to prevent the bombs from being detonated, he wanted to go along with the rest of his kind until he ends up finally being carried away by [[Donkey Kong]] as the factory explodes. R.O.B. escapes with the others on the [[Falcon Flyer]] and later meets up with the rest of the characters on the ground. He and the rest of the cast go into [[Subspace]] to confront Tabuu, but are all turned into Trophies. Eventually, [[Kirby]] saves him and he joins the group who go on to defeat Tabuu and save the World of Trophies. With so many Subspace Bombs set off simultaneously on the Isle of Ancients, only a shining, X-shaped scar appears where the Isle once was when the rest of the world is restored with the destruction of Tabuu and the Great Maze.<ref name=DojoSSE/> | ||
