After Croc defeated them all, Baron Dante was forced to fightwith Croc himself.

This was the final showdown between Croc and the Baron. He fights in three phases and has three lives in each phase. In the first phase, he tries to slam his fist at the ground to create shockwaves, or he just tries to hit Croc. During the second phase, Dante stands still in the middle of the arena and after a while tries to ram into Croc. In the third and final phase, he flies up and shoots bolts of magic at Croc. As his lives decrease he shoots more rapidly at Croc. After he descends, he is vulnerable andto attacks, where Croc is eventually defeatsable theto Barondefeat oncehim. He was presumably sent to the and[[N'th forDimension]] allafterward.

After Baron Dante was defeated, [[Croc (Character)|Croc]] then recovered the [[Jigsaw Pieces]] scattered in various places around the Islands, and then visited the mysterious Crystal Island where a strange creature that resembled Baron Dante but is thought to be a totally different creature. It was called [[The Secret Sentinel]] and it fights in a large cross like arena (similarsurrounded toby the hospital crossfour symbol)gongs. After [[Croc (Character)|Croc]] defeated The Secret Sentinel, it shattered into many [[crystals]], one of which [[Croc (Character)|Croc]] picked up.

After several attempts failed, Baron Dante decided to confront Croc himself, on the mountain tops of [[Inca Village]]. Croc, driving the [[ProfessorInventor Gobbo]]'s plane, managed to shoot Baron Dante off the mountain, where he retreated to the Bride of the [[Dungeon of Defright]], Croc following closely behind.

In the dungeon, Croc met and freed the [[Professor Gobbo]], and the two of them confronted Baron Dante 2 a final time on a dark mountain top. Croc protected the [[ProfessorInventor Gobbo]] from Baron Dante's evil magic long enough for the inventor to open a portal to another dimension and banish the evil being.
