The elephant shouted, “Out of my way, you weakling – I might step on you!” when the tortoise met him one day. The elephant shouted to the tortoise, “Out of my way, you weakling – I might step on you!” and the tortoise was unafraid. The elephant stepped on the tortoise but was unable to crush him because he was unfrightened and remained where he was.
“Mr. Elephant, do not brag; I am as strong as you are!” The elephant just laughed as the tortoise spoke. So the turtle requested that he come to his slope the following morning.
The tortoise ran down the hill to the river the next day before sunrise, where he met the hippopotamus, who was returning to the water from his nightly feeding.
“Hippo! Mr. Do you want to play tug-of-war? I swear I’m as powerful as you! The tortoise said.
“Hippo! Mr. Do you want to play tug-of-war? I swear I’m as powerful as you! The tortoise said. Despite laughing at this absurd concept, the tortoise agreed. The hippo was instructed by the tortoise to hold the long rope in his mouth until the tortoise yelled, “Hey!”
The elephant was becoming impatient when the tortoise ran back up the hill and found him. He said, “When I say ‘hey!'” as he handed the elephant the other end of the rope. Pull, and you’ll find out which one of us is stronger.
He then yelled “HEY!” as he dashed halfway back down the hill to an obscure location. Despite their equal strength, the elephant and hippopotamus pulled and pulled, but neither could move the other.
They were both of the same opinion that the tortoise was as powerful as they were.
Know about sharp individuals, they would take/use your powers/endeavors by providing you with the impression of being week. Avoid being duped by clever people to learn how to properly demonstrate your power and skills.
