The Choropū Men'iwa and the other Urami no Iwa fly towards Mario and attack him, due to the fact that Mario killed them in the past.

The spirits of the Choropū Men'iwa and other Urami no Iwa then proceed to float out of Yoshi's mouth after Mario broke them. It is unknown what happened to the Choropū Men'iwa and other Urami no Iwa after their spirits flew out of Yoshi's mouth.
