Shovel 4: Tool's Revenge!
The Axe
(15,11-3=12,8)(8, 21) In another odd moment of stillness, the cannonballs are seemingly diced apart midair.
Suddenly, it seems to.. teleport? Whatever it did, its close to G1 and Xee now.
It puts an arm across its opposite shoulder before winding up and slashing violently in a diagonal upwards cut at the duo. (7)
The force of the slash seems so immense that it has cleaved some sort of.. gash in reality?
Regardless, the thing is unstable, and soon explodes in a trail of plasma a second or so behind the slash. (3)
With the help of some "encouragement" (AKA G1 yelling at Xee, and Xee yelling back), he successfully lands without getting cut in half. And he's now just laying on the ground in pain.
G1, meanwhile, keeps firing. (11,19)

That last one wasn't supposed to be on fire, but clearly it helped.
