The aerial battle has Pit flying down to the depths of the [[Underworld]], where Medusa resides within a deathly fortress. On the way, he encounters new enemies called [[Shootfly|Shootflies]], which only react to the sound of a firing weapon. He makes his way down a deep tunnel filled with dangerous [[Orne]]s, which can now be easily destroyed thanks to the Sacred Treasures, as well as web-spinning [[Trailtail]]s. After passing these many enemies, Pit finally reaches the eye-shaped entrance to the Underworld, which can now be entered thanks to the key retrieved from [[Thanatos]] during [[The Seafloor Palace|Chapter 7]]. Upon reaching the dreary wastelands of the Underworld, [[Dark Pit]] joins in for the rest of the aerial mission, as he shares a common goal of getting rid of the goddess of darkness. After battling numerous enemies, they reach Medusa's ghastly fortress where they must face the dangerous [[Underworld Gatekeeper]] as a miniboss, which can launch many laser-based attacks and will prevent them from passing. When the guardian proves to be too strong, Dark Pit executes a powerful kick to knock the monster out of the way, allowing Pit to enter the fortress while his dark counterpart stays behind to fight off the pursuing Underworld monsters.

===Underworld Gatekeeper Miniboss===
The Underworld Gatekeeper serves as the miniboss of the aerial mission. The Underworld Gatekeeper is armed with various laser turrets and has various attacks at its disposal, ranging from fireballs, to energy blasts, to a large laser beam that travels across the screen. It can even transform into a jet and charge across the screen to damage Pit. To bring down the mighty machine, Pit must destroy all of the turrets on its body. After doing so, the Gatekeeper shields its eyes with a protective covering, preventing Pit from finishing it off. Pit must fend off the colossus's attacks until Dark Pit arrives to finish it off.
 
===Attacks===
* '''Fireballs:''' Fires fireballs from the gears on its wings.
* '''Energy Bullets:''' Fires energy bullets from the triangles on body.
* '''Ring Shot:''' Fires a slow moving ring-shaped energy projectile.
* '''Bombs:''' Fires two grenade-like projectiles that home in on Pit.
* '''Energy Orb:''' Fires two large slow moving energy orbs at Pit.
* '''Mega Laser:''' Fires a large energy beam that travels across the screen.
* '''Jet Mode:''' The Gatekeeper transforms into a jet and quickly flies across the screen to hit Pit.
