Shifting splatforms are used through this mission and often found near grating or other obstacles. These splatforms are used as a type of puzzle for Agent 3 to solve. While most of the splatforms are horizontal in nature; three of the four platforms that lead to the Zapfish are vertical. The first and third splatform move at the same rate, while the second moves at a different rate.
Beginning Area
Walk off the Spawn Point and down the ramp. There will be a grate. Turn into a squid to pass through the fence. There will be a big moving Splatform. Walk onto it. Paint the platform and swim to the other side of it and jump off it onto another platform. Destroy the crates and splat the two Octotroopers. Then walk up the ramp, and press to Super Jump at the Launchpad.
Checkpoint 1
Jump off the platform with the checkpoint. There will be several Splatforms to pass through. Cross them, like at the beginning. Splat the Octotroopers and Octocopters before they can splat you. On the last one, turn right, paint the small wall and junp off the Splatform onto it and climb up it.
Checkpoint 2
Step off the spawn point and you will see some Octocopters. Splat them, head right and towards the end of the walkway. There you will see three boxes, one of which contains the Sunken Scroll.

Heralded by loud explosions, the 'Great Octoweapons' quickly stormed the Inklings' central stronghold. Victory for the Octarians seemed all but certain, but due to a plug being carelessly pulled from its socket, their hopes were dashed.
At the second checkpoint, beside the large wall. When landing on the checkpoint, you will be facing a large wall with shifting platforms and two Octocopters overhead. Rather than engaging them, go on the path to the right. Around the corner of the wall will be three large crates. Destroy them and collect the scroll.
