Landia, now consisting of four small dragons, then assists Kirby and accompanying friends, in chasing Magolor and the Lor Starcutter when Magolor enters Another Dimension to go and conquer Planet Popstar.

As a Boss

File:Landia Split Up.jpg
In the second phase, Landia splits into four dragons. In this shot, it fires down on Kirby with all four at once.

Landia is faced as the boss of Dangerous Dinner. During the first phase of the fight, it fights as the whole dragon. During the second phase, it splits up and attacks as the four smaller dragons.

The following lists all of Landia's attacks in the Main Game of Kirby's Return to Dream Land. Attacks in italics are used in the second phase of the fight only.

Attacks - Main Game
Attack Description
Fire Shots
Landia fires individual fire balls from its mouths that cannot be swallowed.
Triple Spin Strike
Landia flies in close and performs three rapid spins, striking with its wings and its feet. The last strike leaves stars behind.
Dive
Landia dives in a maneuver that cannot be ducked, leaving stars at the lowest point of the dive.
Fire Breath
Landia breathes fire with two of its heads, covering much of the stage.
Gust
Landia flaps its wings, creating a torrent of wind that pushes Kirby back, and also creates sharp gusts that can do damage and can't be swallowed.
Bomber Dragons
Landia re-positions and fires downward repeatedly, covering a large area systematically. The first and last shots leave stars.
Volt Transfer
Landia flies into a grid formation, and starts charging electricity between its bodies. Will either re-position or move about in a counterclockwise manner.
Quad Dive
Landia dives each of its bodies across the stage, two at a time.
