The Chai Kingdom[1] is one of the four kingdoms of Sarasaland. It has Chinese-style environment and background music, and along with the Jiangshi-inspired Pionpi enemies - this kingdom appears to be based off of mythical ancient China. Unlike the previous kingdoms, no enemies in the kingdom relate to the boss. The last level has Mario flying in his Sky Pop shooting down targets and both the world boss, Biokinton, as well as the main antagonist, Tatanga. Further enemies found here include Piranha Plants, Pionpis, Bullet Biffs, Goombos, Nyololins, Pompon Flowers, Kaitensuru Honō, Chikakos, Chickens, Genkotsu, and Roketons.

"Chai" can be a Chinese name and surname, and also a type of tea that originated in India.
