Kent C. blocks [[Pleasant Path]], the road to [[Koopa Village]] and the [[Koopa Bros. Fortress]] after Chapter 5, preventing [[Kolorado]] from getting home after the explorer's adventures on [[Lavalava Island]]. He demands a toll of one hundred [[coin]]s in order to let people pass, but [[Mario]] can fight him instead as an optional boss. Defeating him will cause him to flee from the path for the rest of the game. [[Russ T.]] implies that Kent C. Koopa taught the [[Koopa Bros.]] how to fight.

Kent C. Koopa has rather high attack and defense compared to other bosses encountered before and after the point he appears in the game. Kent C. can use a powerful [[Ground Pound]]-like attack on Mario to squish him for ten damage; he may also perform a slow [[Shell Toss]] attack that flattens Mario and their partner, inflicting the [[injured]] status effect on them while dealing three damage.

*Kent C. Koopa bears a strong resemblance to [[Hookbill the Koopa]]. In fact, he appears to have been partially based on Hookbill's artwork, particularly in the arrangement of plates on his shell.
