With the Isle of Ancients under his command, Tabuu attacks the [[Halberd]], seeking a transport ship for his army. {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} attempts to stave off the attack on his ship, but he is preoccupied with {{SSBB|King Dedede}}, who decided to attack at a similar time. Meta Knight loses the battle and vanishes, but Dedede learns of Tabuu and his most devastating attack - the Off Waves, which can reduce many Fighters to trophies in a single long-range attack. Dedede realizes that Tabuu is capable of turning all of the Fighters into trophies at once, rendering no one able to revive anyone, and leaving no one to stop Tabuu's plans. With this in mind, he begins work on [[Dedede Brooch|an item]] that can revive a trophy on a timer, without needing a helper's contact, which should make it possible to resist the Army even if everyone is defeated. | With the Isle of Ancients under his command, Tabuu attacks the [[Halberd]], seeking a transport ship for his army. {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} attempts to stave off the attack on his ship, but he is preoccupied with {{SSBB|King Dedede}}, who decided to attack at a similar time.

Finally, Tabuu sets out to recruit specific fighters to his cause, using Master Hand as a cover. He focuses his efforts on those who naturally dislike the others, giving him three accomplices willing to help "Master Hand's plan": {{SSBB|Bowser}}, {{SSBB|Wario}}, and {{SSBB|Ganondorf}}. Their objective is to locate and suppress any resistance to the detonation of [[Subspace Bomb]]s, the weapon developed by the Isle of Ancients to send pieces of the world into Subspace. To help, the three of them are provided with [[Dark Cannon]]s: a second newly created weapon, which allows the user to turn any fighter into a trophy in a single shot. The three accomplices split up to operate in their own ways. Ganondorf remains hidden in an undisclosed location, acting as a liaison with Master Hand, as well as his second-in-command for the army as a whole; while he claims to be loyal to Master Hand, he is simply waiting for the right time to overthrow him and take command of the | Finally, Tabuu sets out to recruit specific fighters to his cause, using Master Hand as a cover.

Bowser assembles his [[Koopa Troop]] and begins to wander the world in search of opponents; he is relatively loyal to Master Hand, but does not care for Ganondorf asserting rank over him. Wario, on the other hand, sets off on his own and continues to do whatever he wants, treating his objective as a low priority and not caring at all about the plan or his role in it. However, Wario uses his Dark Cannon to turn others into trophies, but keeps them for himself. | ||
The preparations of Tabuu's plan are complete - he has Subspace Bombs to cut the world apart, an army created from the Shadow Bugs to escort the bombs and clear out any opposition, the Halberd to transport said army, and fighter accomplices with Dark Cannons should more intelligent force be necessary. Finally, the [[Subspace Gunship]] is under development and construction within Subspace, which, once complete, will supersede Subspace Bombs and render the operation all but unstoppable. | The preparations of Tabuu's plan are complete - he has Subspace Bombs to cut the world apart, an army created from the Shadow Bugs to escort the bombs and clear out any opposition, the Halberd to transport said army, and fighter accomplices with Dark Cannons should more intelligent force be necessary.

To the east of the Midair Stadium and Skyworld is [[The Jungle|a jungle]]. The Koopa Troop is perpetuating hijinks, carrying a [[Cargo]] full of bananas and moving at high speed away from the jungle, where Donkey Kong is attacking several of the troop's soldiers, enraged that his banana hoard has been stolen. As DK spots the Cargo, it fires {{b|Bullet Bill|enemy}}s at DK, but The Great Maze appears and shoots them out of the air with his [[Peanut Popgun]]s. The duo traverse the jungle and through the Koopa Troop to retrieve the bananas. They eventually reclaim the banana hoard and celebrate their victory, but Bowser then steps into view from behind and prepares to fire his Dark Cannon at the two. DK realizes the banana hoard's theft was part of a setup to lure the Kongs into a trap and that trying to fight a backed-up Bowser plus an unknown weapon is foolish, so he punches Diddy away from the scene, taking the shot himself. Diddy sees DK get turned into a trophy as he flies away, while Bowser claims DK as a prize. | To the east of the Midair Stadium and Skyworld is [[The Jungle|a jungle]].
