I think the reason why the morning star hides its 'thorns' is because Needle Star is the one who retracted it. He somehow noticed that Mizuki is doing a follow up of his attacks and likely use his weapon as a shot put. That's why he smiled when he was knocked down the first time. Perhaps they have done something like this before, or spur of the moment teamwork. I don't know. He does however quickly drag Mizuki back once he realised that the shot put attack did not work and evade Rhino's attack. He did say that the weapon is like an extension of himself, thus he has a complete mastery/synergy with his weapon of choice. Just my two cents.
