The Kettle for this mission is on a tall tower in the back right corner of Suction-Cup Lookout. To reach it, find a Sponge Block in the back of the area, Ink it, and swim up. Jump to the Grate across from the Sponge, and ink and swim up the tower the grate is hanging from, and then ink and jump to the tower with the Dash Pad. Being launched from the Dash Pad will land you on some Grating, Ink the boxes just above, and find the Kettle.

Sunken Scroll
“
What could have happened to the two embracing? No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.
Location:
This scroll is actually pretty well hidden. Under the platform where you first encounter the huge wall of Octomissiles aim and blast the ink grind rail on the small lower platforms, summoning a long trail you can hop down and ride to the area above the rocket dispensers. The scroll is on the ledge in a small orange box; there is a small piece of terrain that you can jump on to access the ledge.
Sardinium
Location:
The Sardinium is after the launch pad guarded by a single octotrooper with a balloon and right near where the second line of octozeppelins comes out.
Armor
Octozeppelin Invasion has 2 pieces of armor to collect.
Armor 1 Location:
The first armor is right where the first line of octozeppelins comes out, close to the start.
Armor 2 Location:
This armor piece is located along the edge of the platform closest to the line of Octomissiles, on the right hand side; the Stingray canned weapon is right in front of it.
Special Weapon
Sting Ray Location:
There is one Sting Ray on this level, its location is on the platform where the line of Octomissiles fires periodically, on the right hand side. Hard to miss as it is right along the path to the next checkpoint.
Crust Bucket Ticket
Location:
This is an Exp. Up Ticket, and it's quite easy to miss your first time around. On the platform with the Octozeppelins that has a propeller on it to lower the platform, you first want to lower it as much as possible and head towards the orange crate near the end of the platform. If you are facing the spawn for the Zeppelins turn around to your back right and you should see a small platform underneath the main one along with a small orange crate and an unactivated Ride Rail. Ink the ground and jump for this platform and your ticket waits inside the box.
If the player is using a weapon lacking range (i.e. any weapon except Hero Charger or Hero Splatling), Gushers will appear in front of most Grapplinks (and, in the final grapplink's case, an extra platform to be climbed will stick out from the originally plain platform) to make it easier for the player to progress.
You can use the Sting Ray to make your way to the goal easier, by firing the Sting Ray at the final Grapplink.
