This is the save file patch that allows you to go through the Cathedral on Chrono Trigger DS. Just make sure the ROM name is the same has the SAV file. It's only be tested on the R4.
I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)
