As Gin lurches forward, Shinso is stabbed in the stomach. As he bows his head in defeat, he turns into a static image, and disappears. This was due to the fact that Shinso had Flash Stepped at the last moment, which had left an after-image that appeared to take the damage. Shinso then appeared behind Gin.Gin, seeing through the flash step, reacts by spinning around on his heel and moves his sword forward close to Shinso. Gin sets the sword in the center and applies downward pressure to cause Shinso's blade to glance off to the side just enough to avoid being cut. Gin then lurches forward at Shinso to perform a powerful two handed stab into Shinso's stomach.
Too slow, Gin.

Shinso then thrusts his Zanpakutou blade forward, impaling Gin on the blade.
I forgot to add Shunpo's Reiryoku cost into my last move, so I will do so this move.
