Story
Part 4-1: Rogueport: Bandits, Water Deities, and the French Foreign Legion!
On January 1st, 2005, New Years Day, two Police Toads were investigating the death of a local bandit named Blundit. Although they suspected suicide, suddenly a pink Snifit named Sniffle appeared, claiming that it wasn't suicide, and that it was the Bandit Mafia. A flashback began; two days earlier, Blundit was alive and doing some investigating. Suddenly a group of bandits rushed into his home, threatening him if he didn't begin filling the quota for Boss Bandit. Blundit said he didn't care about Boss Bandit and wouldn't steal anything for him. Before the bandits began to beat him up, Sniffle appeared, trying to keep them from beating him up. The bandits agreed to leave for that time, and then Blundit began to show Sniffle what he had been doing--he had been searching for the "ultimate power of water" from an ancient diety named Ploosientle who had been locked away long ago, and he felt he was getting closer and closer: he had an idea as to where what he was searching for was. When he asked Sniffle if she wanted to go with him, however, she got all excited and thought it was like a date, and began thinking Blundit was her boyfriend. The rest of the part involved Blundit trying to tell Sniffle he wasn't her boyfriend, but it continually failed to work.
Part 4-2: Don’t Mess With the Mafia
Later that day, Sniffle went over to the east side of Rogueport, lookin for Blundit. She learned from Gus that Blundit was back in the eastern part of town, after which Blundit quickly ran off. Sniffle followed him all around Rogueport until they ended up outside the window of Frankie and Francesca's office. They overheard some Bandits talking with them, and learned Boss Bandit was planning on disposing of Blundit. Blundit became depressed until Sniffle reminded him he was planning on leaving anyway, so they hurried to Professor Frankly's to ask for help on the expedition. There, they saw along with Frankly and Goombella Coshi, a Yoshi, and AAA, some robot. When they agreed to go along, Blundit learned they had no ship, which sent him back to depression due to having no way of leaving. Just then, Sniffle and Blundit saw the Pirate King Cortez's ship coming up to the docks.
Part 4-3: Let’s Shove Off, Amigo!
When Cortez and Bobbery came to the docks, Blundit and Sniffle convinced Cortez to let them use his ship. Thus, they all headed out to sea. Unfortunately, two bandits were watching, and they went to tell Boss Bandit. Boss Bandit decided they would dispose of them themselves, out at sea where there would be no witnesses.
Part 4-4: Crapudtastic!
This part wasn't very good. Blundit was down below decks at the beginning, doing some work. He stayed up so late, the next day he was asleep all day until Cortez sent one of his spirits down to wake up him... the hard way. Meanwhile, the Bandit Mafia headed out to sea. Later, the Bandit Mafia caught up to Cortez's ship and began to attack it. Blundit, Sniffle, Coshi and AAA boarded one of the Bandit Mafia ships, encountering Big Lantern Ghost and a weirdo named Torro.
Part 4-5: It’s a Miniboss Battle
Torro's only reason for existance was to draw a T on Coshi's nose, so once that occured Torro exploded. Big Lantern Ghost was defeated when Bobbery accidently destroyed his lantern, setting the ship on fire, and AAA made it worse. They all abandoned the ship to the other Bandit Mafia ship, and Big Lantern Ghost fell into the water and was defeated. They then entered the 2nd ship there.
Part 4-6: Boss of the Bandits
When they entered the remaining ship, Boss Bandit's office chair revealed to be a mech that he attacked them with. When they destroyed it, Boss Bandit suddenly froze everyone somehow. Boss Bandit was about to kill them all when Cortez came into the room and blasted him with a jewel beam, defeating Boss Bandit and also sinking the ship. The ship was covered in strange shadow stuff and disappeared, and they prepared to go find the power of water Blundit was after.
Part 4-7: A Very Special Part
After a brief speech about suicide, Blundit went into the ocean. However, after an hour, he came back up, having found out he wasn't powerful enough to obtain the power over water. The whole thing was called off after that. As they were heading back to Rogueport, Blundit was once again depressed until Cortez mentioned something about Blundit possibly being powerful enough if he was a ghost like him. Thus, at exactly the stroke of midnight when the new year came, Blundit hung himself, becoming Bloo. The scene from the start of Part 4-1 was seen, and then Bloo was shown sailing off on a boat, reading a newspaper about The Yoshi Bodyguards' recent defeat of King Boo and the bombsphere. Bloo realized that a bombsphere sounded like the perfect device to break open the prison that Ploosientle was in, and so he went to enter King Boo's services until he could get the blueprints for it...
