Hiding his real strength
The small fireball blasted the incoming spikes and made the sand burst around, generating blackened dust.
After the spikes were blasted away, Mr. Earth King leaped out of the sand and charged in towards his enemy.
"!?"
An exclamation point together with a question mark appeared on top of Mr. Earth King's head when he noticed his enemy had disappeared.
He looked left and right but he could not spot him.
Maybe the enemy fled away? He thought. But then, he suddenly felt a grab from his tail. Also, his momentum stopped, and saw himself in mid-air.
He glanced behind, but then he suddenly felt the world was twirling.
"Dammit!" He spat after noticing that his enemy grabbed his tail and spun him around. "Dumbass! Let me go! Eek!" he hissed and tried to struggle but to no avail.
A moment later, he saw his body fly upward. Damn! The enemy threw him into the sky! In any case, how did this man suddenly disappear and appear behind him?!
