This places you in a Save Station; speed past it and then Screw Attack up to the next level above the Chozo Zombie. Blast through the wall here and you will find an elevator leading to Hanubia.
Head to the left, Speed Boosting to destroy the Shakernaut in the next room. Go up, through the small Morph Ball passage to the right, Screw Attack the second Shakernaut and use the Screw Attack to access a path in the ceiling. Take this Morph Ball passage to a new room and then you'll see your next foe slightly in the distance as it leaps around. Head up to the right to the Wave Beam Cover and head into the next room for a cutscene. Skip it and head to the right straight into the E.M.M.I. Zone.
In here, drop down through the twisting path and take the Wave Beam Cover to reach the next room to the right. Enter and Flash Shift to the other side of the room and the doors will lock, trapping you in. The screen will flash as E.M.M.I.-07PB detonates a Power Bomb which knocks you down as it moves in for the kill. Skip the cutscene where your Metroid powers suddenly activate, and Samus will defeat E.M.M.I.-07PB by absorbing the energy right from the robot itself, killing the Central Unit in the process. But before you can fully absorb its power, you have another mini-boss fight.
Your second encounter with this Chozo Soldier is no different than the last time. Get rid of its shield by decimating it with Storm Missiles or by attacking when the shield is down, avoid its ground and aerial attacks with the Flash Shift, and continue to pound it with Missile and Beam fire when it is open. Once you destroy the shield, continue pounding it with your attacks until you reveal its X-Parasite phase. As before, avoid the downward strike, lunges, and black sludge beam attacks and you should be just fine. When the QTE triggers, counter this Chozo Soldier twice for a victory and watch hilariously as Samus learns to use these new Metroid powers to replenish her HP by harnessing the enemy's. Seriously, you will get a full refill of health by absorbing it from the Chozo Soldier.
Once the Chozo Soldier has been vanquished, Samus walks up to the vanquished E.M.M.I. and receives the Power Bomb (02/15) upgrade, granting you an initial stock of two. Leave this area via the Morph Ball tunnel in the middle of the right wall, and Speed Boost/Flash Shift straight ahead to the E.M.M.I. Zone exit.
From here on out, directions in and out of E.M.M.I. Zones will be notated appropriately, but they will not continue to be sectioned off in the overall structure of this walkthrough since all of the E.M.M.I. have now been beaten and thus you will only be seeing standard enemies in the areas.
In this next area, detonate a Power Bomb to blow apart some of the surrounding structures and Space Jump up to the E.M.M.I. Zone door above you. Go into this room and set another Power Bomb to destroy the cracked structure above, then Space Jump up to access a Morph Ball passage at the upper left. Roll on through here to find a room with another ceiling passage. Take this tunnel into the next area where you have to make a "U" shape by using Bombs to break through the floor, drop down, then use Bombs to break through the ceiling to reach the Zone Exit.
Run through the next hallway, charging the Speed Booster as you go. Just past the next door, store your Shinespark, set Bombs in the floor towards the edge of the platform, do a spin jump in the air, press B+Y+Down to cancel and Shinespark directly into the floor, which should reveal a path through the Speed Boost blocks to a hidden Power Bomb Tank (03/15). Exit this area and head left through the Wave Beam Cover which takes you to a Network Station. Check in with Adam so he can inform you that you have a brand new power as if you hadn't already noticed. But now that you have manifested the powers of a Metroid, Adam seems to think it's a good idea for you to alter your objective of escaping and instead go to the sky fortress and challenge Raven Beak. This seems a bit suspicious but just roll with it for now. After the briefing is over, head to the right through the bottom exit, destroy the Chozo Zombie and use Cross Bombs to get through the Bomb Blocks to the right. Drop down, zig through the room to the Morph Ball tunnel to the bottom left, Screw Attack the two Shakernauts in here, and go back the way you came initially to Ferenia.
