The impact was incredible, to say the least. Whether it had been Kannushi's intention or not, Shaw would probably never know, but the two barriers collided, with the force of Shaw's absorption and of Reine's toss behind them respectively, the resulting explosion rocked the entire building, sending Shaw back and embedding heavily into the wall behind him, putting him down for the count.

Odds were Kannushi would not nearly be so fortunate if someone didn't immediately stop his momentum. He was a bit less sturdy than the Black King was, after all.
