Any attack can stop his ability. Normally, once you get up right after he creates earthquake, rolls forward once. Wait for a moment for the roots to appear, then jumps over it. Immediately rolls forward once more and attacks him. If you have long range attack, then you can attack Chief right after you jump over the roots, without needing to rolls for the second time. IIRC, all of Kusarigama moves are long-ranged.

And of course, Shadow Ability such as Blink and Eruption can do the job just fine. Not sure about Trip...
